When the history of our part In the world war is written it will not
be complete without mentioning the namle of “Don,” the mascot of
Company B, 106th Infantry, Twenty-seventh Division. The collie is
entitled to the two wound stripes shown on his oMve-drab coat, for
he was seriously wounded on two different occasions in the discharge of
his duties. “Iom” has the distinetion of being the. only dog officially
cited for distinguished service. Authentic proof of his standing is signed
by Franklin W. Ward, colonel of the 106th Regiment, of Brooklyn. The
photograph shows the dag hero with his bunkie, Michael T. Galvin.
‘Don” was shell-shocked and wandered about almost a month. Galvin
answered to his name at every roll ecall and the mascot was listed absent
without leave instead of being posted as a deserter,

Appheation for charter prohnhlyl
will be filed this week for the in«'nr-’
poration of the Young Men's Civie
League, anpouncement of whose or
ganization was published in The
Georgian a short time ago. Since
then the membership has grewn r:np-i
idly, and the league is ready to \'mn~|
plete its organfzation, obtain a char
ter and elect permanent officers. '
The purposes of the league —to!
maintain an open forum for the dli~|
cussion of questions affecting | the !
welfare of the community-—were set
out some time ago. It was stated
Monday by €. H. Westbrook, one of
the organizers, that while it is not
purposed to make the league a parti
san organization, it expects to take
an aétive part in all movements af
fecting the future of Atlanta,
“The strike which is now on, and
the labor situation in general, will
be discussed in detail,” ne said, “It
may be that through this organiza-'
tion, with its freedomn of thought and )
speech and the oppertunity it pro
vides for all sides to meet on com
mon ground, will come a m-lllvnu-nl‘
of the differences which so seriously
affect public welfare.” .
Robert B, Trontman has been tem
porary chairman of the league, lu-[
¢luded in Its members are represen
tatives of the law, several kinds nf‘

DEKALB OFFIGER KILLED SEARCHING CAR
| :
i
\
Officers of both Fulton and De-
Kalb Counties hunted Monday for an
unidentified white man who shortly
before midnight shot and killed Dep
uty Sheriff J. W. Webb and wounded
Deputy R. T. House, both DeKalb
County officers, while they were
searching a mysterious automobile
they had fol/m‘l in the woods just off
of the Druid Hills road, in Druid
Hills, and about eone mile from the
Decatur courthouse,
Deputy Webb was slain instantly,
the bullet entering under his right
ear and passing through his head.
Deputy House was wounded only
slightly, receiving a bullet in his right
shoulder.
The slayer had been found asleep
in the automobile by the two officers
and had been awakened and ques
tioned He stated that he had run
the car into the woods to make re
pairs and had fallen asleep. The of
ficers were suspicious of his story and
told him they would have tp search
his car He demurred to this, and
warned the officers not to molest the
car, By this time he was on the
ground and had walked a short dis
tange away.
Regardless of his warning, how
ever, the officers began the search.
No sooner had they started than the
stranger opened fire from the dark
nes, the first bullet striking Webb
and the second hitting Hoyse in the
shoulder The assailant then darted
into the woods
House immediately gave attention
to his comrade, but found that he al
ready was dead Believing that it
would be useless for him to chase
the fugitive alone, House hurried to
his own home, but a short distance
away, and telephoned to Sheriff M
Curdy, at Decatur, for ass¥stance. As
he was returning he heard the auto
mobile speeding away The slaver
kad returned, jumped into the car and
had driven away in the direction of
Atlanta
City and county authorities here
were notified and a hunt put under
way immediately
House reported that he and Webb
had just picked sup a pair of old
overalls at the time the first shot was
fired He lid there was a suit case
and a box of dry goods supplies in
the auto

he was the father of her unborn
baby and left after expressing re
gret that “the shot did not kill
you,” returning last night “to
Wheeling, W. Va., whére he is em

“If my wife lured this man on,

A numbaer of vita] questions will
face City Council when it meets
Monday afternoon for the 'second
session of March. The decision of
the Svpreme Court that the Railroad
Commission has the authority to reg
ulate street car fares is one of the
most important questions to be dis-.
cussed, while the dance-hall ques
tion, which has been before Council a
number of times, again is to come up.
It is believed probable that Mayor
James L.oKey will make an address to
Couneil on the street car question.
The Mayor's determined stand that
the company is-now getting a fair
return on its investment and that it
is not entitled to an increase in tolls
is expected to produce a warm dis
cussion of the plan on which the fight
will now take.
Whether or not refreshment and
cigar stands will be closed and At
lanta will be governed by a stringent
Sunday “blue law"” will provide one of
the most interesting discussions at
the meeting. A number of Council
men have expressed themselves in
favor of closing all places of refresh
ment and amusement on Sunday,
while there are others who are deter
mined that the last source of recrea
tion for Atlantans on the “rest day”
of the week will not be removed
" Another mattsr ilg the milk ordi
nance, which was unfavorably report
ed by the ordinince committee of
Council at its meeting last week, Sug
gested amendments have met with
determined opposition from the pro
| ducers, but with the Federation of
Women’s Clubs working strongly in
‘ruvur of the ordinance, it is believed
likely that a discussion will be pre
‘ cipitated in open Council,
| Bond Electign.
| Couneil again will be asked to au
thorize an election on eity bonds and
L:m increase in the tax rate from
| $1.25 to SI.BO per SIOO. "This decision
was reached at a joint meeting of
' the Board of [Bducation and the
}fln:mm- committee of Council, and
while the majority of Councilmen are
known to favor the bhond election,
strong opposition has been manifest
ed against an Inerease in the tax
rates,
Alderman J. H Ewing and Hardey
Hatcher, chairman of the finance
{mmmmw. are expected to lead the
fight against the tax increase, Al
derman Hatcher announced his oppo
i*mnu to the measure at the joint
‘nn-rlinu. stating that the issue had
been before the people on two o
| casions in the past, and that he could
| not see the necesslty of repeatedly
‘,m?\mg them to vote on it

PARIS, March 17.—A feeling of |
nervousness has arisen in Paris to
day as a result of President Wilson's
determination to foree the signing of |
the covenant of the league of nu—{
tions at the same time the Hr)mm‘
envoys are ordered to place their
signatures on the preliminary peace
treaty.
Foreign Minister Pichon's state
ment that he believes it would be
impossible to sign the two docu
ments concurrently represents the
French view that the primary ne-|
cessity is to make tentative peace
with Germany and then complete the
covenant of the league of nations by
1e time 1t final treaty is ready |
Another factor making for delay is
the wproachin departure of Pre {

up in flames, and the goods
that were destroyed will bring

be claims for beans and cheese,

Pistol duel is fought at night and

mighty cheer, if once more they
move the cars and colleet the
