In the midst of the clanging of iron doors, the sharp commands of the guards and the multitudinous tasks with which they are confront ed, the sorrows of Friday are for gotten by the convicts of the Atlanta Federal prison in the thought of ‘he joys of Thursday, the greatest day they have known since their impris onment. The humdrum, oppressive existence of the prison has been up lifted by the Christmas spirit. The 900 convicts had a reaf Christ mas celebration. For years Warden Moyer has exerted evers effort to make Christmas the gala day..of the prison year, and especial prepara tions were made that the men might know' something of the joys of Yule- tide. The celebration continued from 9:30 in the mtyning until late in the afternoon, and the spirit, of the day took wrinkles from the 900 faces and loads of sorrow from the 900 hearts, and made them forget they were con victs and remember only that it was Christmas Day. During the morning talent select ed from the convict rolls gave a vaudeville -performance that was de cidedly clever, under the direction of Frederick Clayton, a prisoner. The show' opened with a minstrel first part, in w hich all the characters were convicts. Half a dozen soloists en livened the show, assisted by an en semble >f voices Charles Berger gave a Hebrew monologue. Frederick Clayton drew some clever cartoons and Mitchell Sampson was excellent in songs and dances. Howard Hobos delighted the music lovers with his cornet solo, the Toreador song from “Carmen." The show closed with a sketch billed as "a routin’, tootin’, shoutin’" farce in one act and ‘wo scenes, entitled “In the Days of ’49," a skirt based on the adventures of a stranded actor in the Far West. During the afternoon an elaborate feast was served, the menu including roast turkey, dressing and gravy, mashed potatoes and the other good things that grace a Christmas boar 1.

They w-ere told of their freedom dur-* ing the performance in the morning, and left the hall forever, with the cheers of their fellow-prisoners ring ing in their ears.

Sidelights GEORGIA POLITICS JAMtS B.NEVTN Recent agitation of a movement in Congress looking to the establishing of a new Federal judgeship in Geor gia, which Is a serious proposition, lias renewed ta:k of Congressman Hardwick's fitness and availability for the office. If it is created. Discussing the proposed new judge- ship, The Augusta Chronicle outlines its purposes thus: The bill calls for a floating Federal judge in Georgia, who shall reside in Savannah. It was introduced in rue House Friday by Representative Edwards. The measure embodies the ideas of the Savannah committee which set forth the draft and arguments for it following a visit to Hie Capital last simmer, Judge Sam uel B. Adams was chairman o! the committee, which consisted of leading members of the Savan nah bar. The bill has not been agreed upon by the members of the Georgia delegation. Some want to divide the district, others seem more or less apathetic and some reserve their opinion. Ac tion seems hardly likely until the disposition of the Speer Investi gation. It Is argued by Savannah in terests that i he Georgia judges have more than they can handle, and that Savannah In particular needs more attention on account of its admiralty business. The bill provides that the third Judge shall hold the district courts in the Eastern Division of the Southern District, but that in addition he may be assigned to preside in any other division in either district in Georgia when ever the public interests may re quire. It is very well known that Presi dent W life on feels a deep interest in Mr. Hardwick, the Congressman from the Tenth District, and has urged him not to retire from the House a.t the end of his present term, as it has been suggested he me' Mr. Hardwick has never said defi nitely that he will retire from Con gress at the expiration of his mc.-.ent term of service, but it is well known that he desires to -do that. If he may in justice to his constituents. He lias served in Congress about' twelve years, at a genuine financial sacrifice —as most Congressmen do. as a mat ter of fact. Hardwick knows he can double bis income, or more, practicing law, and that fa the moving circum stance behind his proposed with* drawal. President Wilson, however, will name Mr. Hardwick to practically any post he might ask, and it ha« been stated, with some degree of au thority, that the Congressman from the Tenth would like to be a Federal judge. It is an open secret in Washing ton that Mr Hardwick maj have Judge Speer's position, when that Judge retires, and now it fis being ru mored that he may have the proposed new judgeship, if it is created and lie w ishes it. .Mr. Hardwick is an able lawyer and i? fiyiy equal to the assignment, if the President should make if. Congratulations and very best wishes will be extended from hun dreds of Georgians in public life to Jesse G. Perry, the Governor’s pri vate secretary, now that he has join ed the ranks of the Benedicts. Perry Is genuinely popular—is real ly a "good fellow," and numbers his friends Jlist inside the limit of his acquaintance. Everybody will wish .both Mr. and Mrs. Perry a-large measure of happi ness all through life.

Governor Slaton wift name a judg ■ ot the Court of Appeals from South Georgia, to succeed Judge Robert Pot tle, who hails from that section. Judge Pottle was appointed to tlv> bench by Governor Slaton during the seventy-five days * t rn» that Slaton served as Acting Governor in succes sion to Governor Hoke Smith, and tbs appointment was .made by the then executive upon the theory that this position belongs to South Georgia, as a matter of fairnerss in the distribu tion of judeal appontments. Judges Russell and Roan hail from the upper end of the State, and the Governor t links il Nothing but right that the other judgeship, at least, should go to the lower end. It was rumored that Judge Samiivl Bennett, of Albany, was to succeed Judge Pottle, and he was heavily u- dorsed to the Govern r, but Judge Bennett has announced that he wi 1 not accept the appointment, even il it were tendered, and so that removes him from the list of possibilities. The Governor has not made up hi 5 mind as to Judge Pottle? successor, and will not give the matter particu larly seriops thought until after lt’« resignation is in hand. !
