AS TO IMMIGRATION
t
Report nnd Comment on Recent Meeting Held in Augusta
LlJLCZ.....: iXZJ
Under the lead of the committee on
Immigration on the part of the chain
her of commerce of Augueta, consld
arable Intercut and enthuelaam haa been
aroueed through a large eectlon of the
atnte on the subject of labor and the
non-nelly for fln organlacd effort to In
duce a deelrable claae of Immigrant,
to turn their facet Oeorglaa-ard and
Southward.
A meeting, attended by delegate*
from Athene, Atlanta, Home, Daln-
bridge, Ainerlru* end other point*,
tea* held In Augu«ta recently, «nd In-
tereettng talk* were given by Colonel
Ham C. Dunlap, of the Oeorgla bureau
of Industries mid Immigration, Atlanta;
Colonel Ra*mu»*in, a prominent and
accomplished Dane, of Minnesota. and
other*, all acquiescing In the auggee*
tlon that mating labor condition*,
which are dally growing worse, de
mand prompt and peralatent effort*
In formulating and preening to realisa
tion plane through which Immigrant!
may bn won to title Mate nnd auction.
Colonel Haemueeln rente to thin
country a number of year* ago. When
he landed In New York he hail 17 In
raeh. No other work offering, he went
to Pennsylvania nnd entered a coal
mine. He tolled there till he had ac
cumulated a fairly good aunt of money.
Then he went Weat and grew up with
the country. He told how readily, by
ayatrmutlr procedure, drat rlaea Immi
grant* could be Induced to come to
Georgia, immigrant* who In home Ilf*.
In morale, in dally walk, are a* good
ue the beat people In the country.
Colonel Dunlap and Colonel Rnemui-
eln were an one on the eubjert. Colonel
Dunlap pointing nut the mlataken Idea
whlrli obtalne with no many of our
peopla na to the character and condi
tion of the thoueanda who come to
America from the old country. He had
teen them. He had etudled the new
arrlvala at Ellla Inland title year. The
men, women and children whom he
saw carried about them an air of re
aper lability, energy and determination.
There were no mendlcanta or low char,
acters among them. They come to thl*
country full of expectancy; tbelr mind*
nnd hearta fixed on great American
Ideala. They come to thle country a*
the land of prom lee; the land of the
free nnd the home of the brave; they
come Imbued with a aplrlt that can
not fall to make them good citizen*.
The rnnienau* of opinion was that
the leglalature ahould be petitioned at
the approaching session, to put
bill which will call Into exlatence
bureau or department of Immigration
with a salaried head, a reasonable
clerical force and a fair appropriation
In support of It and In furtherance of
lta work.
Immigration constitute* a big ques
tion, not for debal*. but how to pre-
irnre for the Immigrant*. Thl* must be
done. They cannot ba Invited here,
brought here and turned loose to shift
for themselves at th* depot. They
rarnot be brought here and be
apectfulfy referred to real estate
prepared
Ion expai
for
agent*. Th* way must be
Hee how the subject grows.
Thousand* by thousands of unfilled,
unoccupied acre* of land In Georg a
much be optioned and held In good
faith for the Immigrant* propoMd to be
Invited to the state.
Quite all the Immigrant* who land
at Ellls.Ielund nr* ticketed—they know
their destination; they know that jtm-
C e and reaaonahl* preparation haa
vn made for them.

PATIENT NO. 20.
By THEODORE RANDAHL.
The hospltsl surgeon had finished his
laat round through th* hospital and
turned the gas low and fixed the pa
tlente up for the night. Suddenly
heard hurried eteps In the hall out
side and Dr. Fuller came In, accom
panied by Bister Cecllle and the pa
tient far the only empty bed In the
ward.
•'Thl* la Mr*. Thontaa.” she explained,
and I looked astonished nt an elegantly
dressed young lady, who did nut seem
to be very Sick.
“Just give her a little bromide,,Slater
Iris, nothing else, and I will examlm
her thoroughly In the morning, float
night.”
The surgeon left and Slater Cecllle
and 1 began to undress the new pa
tient. Her rlothea nnd underwear were
exeeedtngiy expensive and mnrked with
the name Lillian embroidered In white
ailk.
While w* were undressing her she
remained perfectly quiet, but when 1
attempted to take down her pompadour
she took hold of my hand and stared
at me.
As I knew It was Important not to
excite the patient I let her hair remain
as It was and put her to bed.
"Poor young woman," said Bister Ce-
111*. "*he suddenly became Inean*
while in the hospital where ahe wa*
living and did considerable damage to
the furniture In her room before any
one could get near Mr. She may have
another attack during Ilia night, and If
you need any assistance Just ring the
bell. I ahull not undress."
Bister Cecllle left me and I went
over to Mr*. Thontaa' bed and handed
her bromide. Bhe took It willingly,
looking at me With her brown eyes, but
a* 1 turned ittfny from Iter again 1 saw
Iter spit the bromide In the ruapldor tm
the other aide of the bed. I went back
to her lied, but found that ahe waa al
ready quiet and had dosed her eyes,
so 1 left Iter alone.
Everything was quiet for a while,
and I sat dow n at one end of the ward
to take a little rest. I waa very tired
and felt that unless I made a strong
effort 1 would be very apt to fall
aider p, but suddenly I heard somebody
whisper my name. 1 sat up straight
and listened, once more I heard my
name quite distinctly, "Slater Iris."
The voice mute from No. 20.
I hurried to her bed. Mrs. Thomas
sat up and again looksd at me with a
peculiar expression In ner dark eyes.
"Please come a little nearer, Bister
Iris," she aatd In a perfectly natural
tono, "I have something to tell you.”
1 thought that ahe waa about to get
another attack and took hold of tbs
butten of tlie electric bell.
You do not nred to be afraid. Sla
ter." the patient raid, “you will not
nred the electric bell. I am not going
to do you any harm."
1 did not let go. however, but walled
for her to tell me what ah* wanted.
Bister Iris," she said softly, "can I
trust you 7"
Yea, you ran trust m* entirely," 1
replied.
Bite seemed to think for a moment.
then ahe took hold of my hand and
said; "1 do trust you and thank you
with all my heart. Now, do you know.
Bister. I ant really not sick at all and
there I* no reason why 1 should be
here."
I smiled a little, because hundreds of
•fore.
"The whole thing 1* only a trick. 1
am being persecuted by relatives to
get rid of me that they may get pos
session of my money. When I per
ceived that they were after me. I simu
lated this attack that I might be ar
rested and brought to an naylum. and
In this manner t escaped front those
who are after me. I esc In your fare.
Bister, that you do not believe me, but
aa sure a a there la a Hod In Heaven, 1
am telling the truth."
I began to believe her.
"Out what do you Intend to do
now 7" I asked.
"While I sin under observation here."
she said. "I will play my part that I
am Insane, so aa to be allowed to stay
here, because I am saf# her* ami after
a while I will make my escape with
our assistance."
•impossible." I replied coldly. "I
dare not keep the matter a secret, It
will be my duty to tell the chief |dty»l-
rtan tomorrow morning."
"That you will never do," ahe said
determinedly and her dark eyes wets
full of Ota. "I mean," she added softly,
■■T"-
"you will not have the heart to do It.
Remember. Sister, that by doing so you
will expose a poor defenseless woman
lo a thousand dangers."
"But We have police, law and Jus
tice here nnd all you have to do Is to
apply for protection."
•That Is true enough, but I have al
ways had a dread of police. Besides
we ran keep silent and what can It hurt
you to help me? I only ask you to keep
silent and I ahull pay you well for It."
Bhe pul her hnnd lo her pompadour
anil pulled out a hundred kroner bill
und pressed It into nty hnnd.
This waa a great temptation for poor
ones who had never In their life pos
sessed that much money at once, espe
cially as she Itad a cripple brother
whom she must support.
I took the bill and promised to re
main silent a* long aa my conscience
would ntlow me to do so. Bhe thanked
me nnd then lay down, nnd n few min
ute* afterwards fell asleep.
During the next few day* she played
her pari aa an Insane person very well.
Th* physician* declared her to be In*
curable, and arrangements were made
to have her sent to the special ward
for thl* class of patients within
few days.
One evening, shortly before 1 began
my work for the night, 1 came Into th*
office to report. The professor who
waa there In charge of the asylum
showed jne a telegram which had Just
been ssnt from London, nnd only eon
talned the words, "It Is burning.”
It was meant for Mrs. Thomas.
I Immediately guessed that these
word* contained a secret warning for
my patient.
"I considered heller,” the pro
feasor enltl, "not to give the patlont
this telegram; It might easily excite
her."
lie dismissed me with a motion of
lit* hand. Whit* I was going toward
the ward, I was deliberating whether
or not to tell Mr*. Thomas anything
about the message. I solved th* ques
tion by murmuring the mysterious
word*. "It Is burning,” while I passed
by her bed. Bhe had hardly heard
them when she sat up In bed, her eyes
sparkling and clinching her hands. 1
kept on Working as If I did not notice
anything. When I had sat down In
my chair and started reading, n* I
nearly always did during the night, ehe
called me to her bed.
“Slater Iris" she said, very much
eaclted. ••the water here haa such a
peculiar taate; I am sure somebody ha*
put poison In It to kill ms."
"Oh. nonsense," I replied, with
entile, *i never found anything strange
with th* water," and to quiet her ~
swallowed a mouthful.
"Oh. you only took a taate of It,
■he said, "but I am sure that you will
never dare to drink all there Is In the
glam."
Though 1 was not thlraty, I emptied
the giass to show her that there waa
no danger. •There, you see," I said,
"and now I will fill your glass again
from your decanter."
No. thank you." ahe said, and turn-
in bed. ~I ran not get th* Men
ed over
nut of my head.'
I went bark and aat down and really
began to perceive • peculiar aweet
taste In my mouth. Cut. of course. It
could not be so, a* 1 myself had men
the decanter filled only fifteen minutes
before.
I had been sitting reading for about
an hour when 1 felt strangely exhaust
ed, and so sleepy that 1 could not
fight It off and fell asleep.
When 1 woke up again. Dr. Fuller
stood next to me shaking my arm.
••Wake, up. Bister Iris," he cried;
"you sleep Ilk* a log.” I opened my
eyes and the first thing I saw was bed
No. 20. which waa empty.
"We must have an explanation from
you. Bister." tbe doctor continued.
"During the night a large amount of
money has been stolen from th* safe
In the nines, and at he same time we
find you asleep and patient No. 20 ha*
disappeared." .
I began to understand a little, and
murmured to myself, "The water."
"What water?" asked the physician.
I told him what had taken plane th*
night before as welt ns 1 couM re
member.
“There w# have It." he exclaimed.

Paris, June (.—American artists re
siding In the Latin quarter have re
cently been victimised by a band of
youthful robbers, who under the pre
tense of being models gained access to
their studies and carried off everything
they could lay their hands on which
had any value.
Th* leader of the band I* a girl of
14, Julia Claudlnen. The police made
descent upon her rooms recently
following upon th* complaint of
number of American artists. They
found the entire band of eight, boys
and girls, all sound asleep In the same
room.
Every available nook and corner was
filled with loot, from costly vases and
small bronxes and miniature* to bicy
cle*. Among .th* theft* recently com
mitted by Julia waa that of a purse
containing 500 francs. With the mone;
she had fitted her entire band out ait
new clothes of astounding gorgeous
ness.

Starved in Big Mins.
Parisians have been horrified by the
newt which comes from Courrlerts that
more bodle* have been taken out of the
mine showing traces of recent death
from starvation and thirst. The terri
ble disaster, In which over 1,005 min
ors were supposed to hare been killed,
occurred over tVo months ago. Twen
ty-one days later thirteen miners came
out of the mine alive. A few dkys later
the fourteenth miner Issued from th*
nbandnned pits. All of the survivors
declared that they had heard sounds
evidently made by survivor* trapped
Ilk* themselves In distant corners of
the mine. Among the bodies brought
out a few day* ago was that of a lad of
15. whom, th* doctors declare upon
examination, not to have been dead
more than ten days at the utmost. The
wildest excitement reigns around th*
scene of th* disaster. Th* erased men

proper steps had not been taken to
save possible survivor* threaten t<
lynch the directors nnd the engineers.
