GEORGIA TO LEAD ALL
ATCHICKAMAUGACAMP
Statement* being- *ent out from
Chattanooga to tho effect that Squth
Carolina will lead In tho number of
troops nt ClikkuniauKa In refuted by
the adjutant general's office of Geor
gia*
The statement Is made that South
Carolina will have threo regiments and
Georgia only two. As a matter of fact,
arrangements have been perfected for
three regiments from this state—First,
Second and Fifth—and this has been
repeatedly printed in Atlanta papers.
According to the figures South Caro
lina will have 1,260 men at Chlcltamau-
ga, while Georgia will send In men and
offleers some 1,660, which ought to bo
sufficient evidence that this state will
le.nl in the iiwmle-i ,,f national guard
at the big encampment.
The state nesds a rearrangement of
Its Judicial circuits, said Judge Joel
A. Sweat, of Waycross, Thursday af
ternoop before the special Judiciary
committee of the house, of which Hon.
Bob Blackburn Is chairman. Further
more, he contended that therp should
be an Increase of judges.
Judge Sweat, Attorney Miller, of
Waycross, and Judge T. A. Parker, of
the Rrunswlck circuit, were before the
committee to urge the passage of the
bill to divide the ten counties of that
circuit Into ttvo, five or which were to
remain and constitute the Brunswick
circuit, the other five (o bo designated
the Waycross circuit.
This bill was prepared by a commit
tee of lawyers of the circuit, who held
a convention In' Brunswick to devise
some plan whereby the congested dock
ets in that circuit might be relieved
nnd ths burden of Its bverworked Judge
lightened.
Judge Parker at the earnest solicita
tion of this committee of lawyers ad-
<ir> i Mi!' i.u- . nnimittaa and urged
a division of ths circuit, as under ths
growing praam of litigation he could
not give that study nnd consideration
to the questions brought before him
that their importance deserved.
It was related before tho committee
that one case alone from that circuit.

Said one attorney: "We just pushed
It up to him. to be knocked back to us,

The striking feature of the discus

laratlon that a rearrangement of all
the circuits and more Judges were sad

JURGIS IN RICH MAN’S HOME—JUNGLE HERO’S LUCK
Presented With a $100 Bill, Victim of Stock
Yards’ Methods is Landed in Jail as a Thief
and His Explanations Laughed At.
CHAPTER XXIV (Continued.)
They had started down ths street,
* rn > In arm, the young man pushing
Jurgle along, half dazed. Jurgts was
'Ding to think what to do—he knew
he could not) pass any crowded place
"ith his new scqualntance without at
tracting attention and being stopped.
was- only because of tho falling snow
that people who passed here did not
entire anything wrong.
Suddenly, therefore, Jurgts stopped.
"It very far?" he Inquired.
Not very,", said the other. “Tired,
•re you though. Well, we'll ride—
•haicha say7 Good! Call a cab!"
And then, gripping Jurgia tight with
®ne hand, the young fellow began
•.arming his pockets with the other.
• au call, ole sport, nn' I'll pay," he
•uggested. "How's that, hey?"
And he polled out from somewhere
* Wg roll of bills. It was more money
Jhan Jurgts had ever seen In his life
“•fore, and he stared at It with startled
ey.s,
"Looks like a lot. hey?” said Master
.reddle, fumbling with It. "Fool you,
'hough, ole chappie—they’re all little
one.’ f|| b e busted In one week more,
•ore thing—word of honor. An’ not a
root more till the first—hlc—gu’ner'*
orders—hlc—not a cent, by-Harry! Null
'o a feller crazy. It Is. I sent A ca*
oi“ this sfnoon—tlmss one reason more
*»>• I’m goln' home. 'Hanging on the
Jorge of starvation,' I says—'for the
honor of the family—hlc—send me
•"hi’ bread. Hunger will compel me
to join you.—Freddie.' Thoss what
wired him, by Harry, a'n mean It—m
run away from sol I. lj'iiml. It 1,”
eon’ me sr.ino.”
After this fashion the young gentle
man continued to prattle on—and
meantime Jurgts Was trembling with
excitement. He might grab that wad
of bills and be out of sight In the dark
ness before the other could collect his
wfts. Should he do It? What better
had he to hope for. If he waited longer?
But Jurgia had never committed a
crime In his life, and now he hesitated
half a second too long. “Freddie” got
one bill loose and then stuffed- the rest
back Into his trouser* pocket.
"Here, ole man,” he said, “you take
It” He held it out fluttering. They
were In front of a saloon; and by the
light of the window Jurgts saw that
It was a hundred dollar bill)
"You take It," the other repeated.
'Pay the csbble and keep the change—
Fre got—hlc—no head for business!
Ouv’ner says so hlssslf, an' the guv'ner
knows—the guv'ner'* got a hend for
busfness, you bet! 'All, right, guv’ner.'
I told him, ‘you run the show, an’ I'll
take ths tickets!' An' so he set Aunt
Polly to wstch me—hlc—«Jl'now Pol
ly's off In the hospital, an' me out
raisin'. Cain! Hello, therel Hey! Call
him!"
A cab was driving by; and Jurgts
sprang and called, nnd it swung round
to the curb. Master Freddie clambered
lln with Sbme difficulty, and Jurgts had
started to follow,
shouted: "HI, there! Olt out—you!”
Jurgia hesitated, and waa half obey
ing; but his companion broko out:
"W’huzzat? Whuzamatter with you,
hey?”
And the cabbie subsided, and Jurgls
climbed In. Then Freddie gave a num
ber on the hake Shore Drive, and the
carriage started away. The youngster
leaned back nnd snuggled up to Jurgls,
murmuring contentedly; In half a min
ute he was sound asleep. Jurgls sat
shivering, speculating as to whether he
might not still be able to get hold of
the roll of bills. He was afraid to try
to go through his companion's pock
ets, however; nnd, besides, the cabbie
might be on the watch. He had the
hundred safe, and he would hsv* to do
with that.
At the and of half on hour or so tha
cab stopped. They were out on the
water front, and from the east a freez
ing gale was blowing off ths Ice-bound
lake. "Here we are,” called the csb
ble, and Jurgls awakened his com
panion.
Master Freddie sat up with a stprt.
‘‘Hello!” he said.* "Where are we?
Whuzzls? Who are you, hey? Oh,
yes, sure nuff! Mos' forgot you—hlc—
ole chappie. Ilomd, art we? Lessee!
Br-r-r—It’s cold! Yes—come 'long—

Maier &
B e r k e 1 e.
Before them there loomed an enorm
ous granite pile, set far back from tho
street, and occupying a whole block.
By the light of the driveway lamps
Jurgls could see that It had towers and
huge gables, like a medieval castle. He
thought that the young fellow must
have made a‘mistake—It was Incon
ceivable to him that any person could
have a home like a hotel or the city
hall. But he followed In silence, and
then went up the long flight of steps,
arm In arm.
"There's a button here, ole sport,”
said Master Freddie. "Hole my arm
. W while I And her! Steady, now—oh, yes,
when the driver here she la Saved!?
A bell rang and In a few seconds the
door was opened. A man In blue liv
ery stood bolding It nnd gazing before
him, silent as n statue.
They stood for a moment bllnkidg In
the light. Then Jurgls felt his com
panion pulling, and he stepped In, and
the blue automaton closed the door.
Jurgls' heart was beating wildly; It was
a bold thing for him to do—*lnto what
strange unearthly place he was ventur
ing tie had no Idea. Aladdin entering
his cave could not have been moi) ex
cited.
The plaee where he stood was dimly
lighted/ but he could see a vast hall,
with pillars fading Into the end of
darkness above, and a great staircase
opening at the far end of It. The floor
was tessellated marble, smooth ns
glass, and from the walls strange
shapes loomed out. woven lpto huge
portieres In rich, harmonious colors, or
gleaming from paintings, wonderful and
mysterious looking in the halt-light,
purple and red and golden, like eunsft
glimmers In a shadowy forest.
The man In livery had moved silent
ly toward them; Master Freddie took
off his hat and handed It to him, and
then, letting go of Jurgls’ arm, tried to
gst out of bis overcoat. After two or
three attempts h* accomplished this,
with a lackey's help; and mesntlipe a
second man had approached, s tall and
portly personage, solemn as an execu
tioner. He bore elrslght down upon
Jurgls, who shrink awsy nervously; he
seized him by the arm without a word,
and started toward tbe door with him.
Then suddenly esme Master Freddie's
voice, "Hamilton! My fren' will re
main wl* me."
The man paused and hhlf releas'd
Jurgls. "Come 'long, Qle chaplpe,” said
the other, and Jurgle started toward
him.
'Master Freddie," esclalmed the man.
'Bee that the cabbie—hlc—Is paid,"
waa the other's response; and he linked
hi* arm In Jurgls’. Jurgls. was about
to say, T have ths monty for him,"
but h* restrained himself. Ths stout
man In uniform signaled to tbe other,
who went out to the cab, while he fol
lowed Jurgls and his young master.
They went down the great hall, and
then turned. Before them were two
huge doors.
''Hamilton,” said Master Freddie.
"Well, slf?" said the other.
“Whussamatter wlzzo dinin' room
doors?"
"Nothing Is ths matter, sir.”
"Then why dontcha oponum?"
The man rolled them back; another
vista lost Itself In the darkness.
"Lights,” commanded Master Freddie,
and the butler preesed a button and a
flood-of brilliant Incandescence stream
ed from above, half blinding Jurgls. He
stared, and little by little he made out
the great apartment, with a domed
celling from which the light poured,
and walla that *?ere on* enormous
painting—nymphs and dryads dancing
In a flower strewn glade, Diana with
her hounds and horses, dashing head
long through a mountain streamlet; a
group of msldsns bathing In a forest
pool, all life-size and so real that Jurgls
thought that It was some work of en
chantment, that he was In a dream

long table In the center of ths hall, a
table black os ebony and gleaming with
wrought silver and gold. In the cen

'gleam of ferns and the
* rare orchids, glowing
somewhere In their
midst.
"This’s th* dinin’ ‘ room." observed
Master Fredlde. "How you like It, hey,

“Rummy ol* pise* to fsel In sll ’lone,

"rummy shell! Whusya think, hey?”
Then another Idea occurred to him and
ha went on, without watting: "Maybe
you never saw anything—hlc—like this

"No,” said Jurgts.
“Corns from country, maybe—hsyr

And Jurgls managed to stammer out;
I have worked for him In the yards."

And Master Frederick drew himself
up to a stately height. "My father's

tightly by th* necK, ha staggered out
of the room; nn the way another Idea
occurred to him, and h* asked; "Any—

"No, air," aald the butter.
They went up the great staircase one
step at a time; at the top of It there
gleamed at them out ot the shadows
the figure ot a nymph crouching by a
fountain, a figure ravlshlngly beautiful,
th* flesh warm and glowing with th*
hues of Ilfs. Above was a huge court,
with domed roof, the various apart
ments opening Into It. The butter had
paused below but a few minute* to
give orders, and then followed them;
now he pressed a button, and the hall
biased with light. He opened a door
before tfiein, and then pressed another
button, os they staggvred Into the
apartment.
It woe titled up os a study. In th*
center was a mahogany table, covered
with hooka and smokers' Implements;
th* walls wars decorated with college
trophies and colors, flags, posters, pho
tographs and knlckknacka, tennis rac
quets, canoe paddles, golf clubs end
polo sticks. An enormous moos* head,
with horns six feet across, faced a buf
falo head on tha opposite wall, while
bear and tiger sklna covered th* pol
ished floor. There were lounging
chairs and sofas, window scat* covered
with soft cushion* of fantastic designs;
there was one corner fitted In Persian
fashion, with a huge canopy and a
Jewelled lamp beneath. Beyond a door
opened upon a bedroom and beyond
that waa a swimming pool of the pur
est marble, that had coat about forty
thousand dollar*.
