FROM BIG HOTEL;
HUSBAND IS HELD
Absent or listless* members are lm
pedlng the progress of,the house. If one
may Judge of what occurred Immedi
ately after the assembling of the house
Thursday morning.
Three votes put to the house by
Speaker Slaton revealed the lack of a
quorum, and the speaker. In conformity
with rule 25, ordered the doorkeeper*
to close the doors to the hall and di
rected the. clerk to call the roll upon
the question which hod failed to dis
close a quorum present In three vote*
taken.
Mr Stovall, of Chatham, thought the
member* understood the question after
the explanation and wanted another
viva, voce vote, but Speaker Slaton
would not assent to this, saying that
the roll call at this Juncture,
thought, would have a good effect
the future.
Accordingly, the clerk called the roll.
It all came about through a motion ol
Mr. Schults, of Lumpkin, to have 200
copies of his bill printed, which bill 1
Intended to check the progress of llllt
eracy In the state, and to provide for
attendance upon the schools.
Mr. Knight Inquired If It wouldn'.
requlre the attendance of negroes, and
Mr. Schultx rejoined that he hoped In
some way to get around that sort of
thing, which provoked a laugh.
Mr. Wright, of Floyd, wanted
know what the cost of printing all
these was to the state.
Speaker Slaton said the committee
on printing might furnish him that in
formation.
On the motion to print, the ayes were
101 and the noeff 25. The vote disclosed
the presence of a quorum, and Speaker
Slaton ordered the doors tliown open
again. The “Jerking together" of the
derelicts by the speaker had a good
efflect, as-was evinced In the considera
tion of the Boykin anti-bucket shop
bill, which followed.

CANT FIND PLANS

O H, I hear the people calling
through the day time and
the night time—
They are calling, they ere crying for
the coming of the right time.
It behoovea you, men end women. It
behooves you to be heeding.
For there lurks a note of menace un
derneath their plaintive pleading.
Let the land ueurpera listen, let the
greedy-hearted ponder,
On the meaning of the murmur, rising
here and swelling yoiyler;
Swelling louder, waxing stronger, like
a atorm-fed stream that courses
Through the valleys, down abysses,
growing, gaining with new forces.
Day by day the river widens, that
great river of opinion,
And Ita torrent beats and plunges at
the base, of greed's dominion.
Though you dam It by oppression and
fling golden bridges o'er It,
Yet the day and hour advances when In
fright you flee before It.
Yes, I hear the people railing, through the night time nnd the day time—
Wretched tollers In life's Autumn, weary young ones In life's Slay time.
They are crying, they are calling, for their sharo of work and pleasure.
You are heaping high your coffers while you give them scanty measure;
You have stolen God's wide acres. Just to glut your swollen purses—
Oh, restore them to His children ere their pleading turns to curses.

FORGIVES 'WIFE
By Private Leased Wire.
Jereey City, July 19.—Though faith
lessness, murder and the law's 'divorce
have separated them, the power of re
ligion paramount to all these claims on
human hatred and remorse has brought
together again James Newman* and hie
former wife. In a new home In thle
city, the man acquitted on the score
of the "unwritten lew” for shooting
Wilber Van Tasel, ha* begun life over
with the women who betrayed him.
Newman, who waa a mechanic at
Wapplngera Falls, had known for some
time that hie pretty and wayward
young wife was accepting the atten
tlons of other men, but or was sworn
at the trial, It was not until ths most
convincing proof of her guilt waa put
Into his handb that he believed she
had exceeded the bounds of wifely
honor. Her acquaintance with Van

In that time not a day hae pasted
without experiencing the earthquake,
The renter of the disturbance Is
ion* thirty miles long by abput ten
miles wide, running from ths Ladrone
mountains southeast through Socorro,
Ban Antonio and Ban Mardal. This
side of the belt the shocks here been
hnrdly felt. Each one Is preceded by
« loud, rumbllng-llke, heavy thunder,
which can be heard approaching from
the northwest before It reaches Bo

Renor Urea, of Socorro, until recently
district attorney, Is In the city with his
family. He say* people ere leaving on
every train, and those who cannot ride
on the railroad are leaving In wngons.
About 2,000 persons are camping out
In tents, and no one dares to go In
doors.
Practically every residence end bust
nese block In the town has been
reparably damaged. There he* hern
mucji distress among the people who
are camping In the open, ns heavy
rains have fallen In the lost two days,
one being the heaviest In fifty yeara.
Most of the people are going to El
Paso, although many are coming
Albuquerque.
The shocks generally occur at ehort
Intervals, In sharp Jerks, the ground
seeming to slip violently. It Is believed
the adjustment of rock strata In the
rugged Ladrone nnd Magdalena rnoun-
tnlna la the reuse of the continued
shock*. Provisions are growing senrre
nnd real distress Is found among the
refugees.
'"Quakes Ara Frightful."
‘The noise end the 'uutkee ■
frightful," said 51 rs. J. J, Lesson,
refugee from Socorro. "I have expe
rleneed earthquakes In Lot Angeles and
Han Francisco, but never anything
sickening a* these prolonged rocklnga
and Jerking* of the earth at Socorro.
Water placed In a bowl will show con
tinued vlbratlone between the greater
shocks, showing that the earth Is never
still. Not a.house In town has ea-
raped damage."
Bocororo Is reported to hsv* been
severely damaged by an earthquake,
Fifty shocks have been felt since Hun
I (lay morning. The court house li

of Mines are cracked and nearly avsry
residence In the city I* cracked
wrecked. More than two-thirds
them at least are damaged or de
stroyed.
The town, which Is largsly mlohe and
brick. Is almost shaken to plecss. The
people are fleeing, but no one has been
killed.
Newman gave her elster-ln-law a let
ter to mall to Van Tassel. Instead of
obeying, the girl took It to Newman,
who opened It nnd read therein the ev
idence of his wife's falsity. Bhe asked
Van Tassel to meet her at a cheap
Poughkeepsie hotel.
Newman sealed and mailed the let
ter, and when the two were entering
the hotel together he shot young Van
Tasssl In the back and he died a few
daye later. Ills lawyers used the de
fense ot the unwritten law and he was
vindicated. He later secured en abso
lute divorce from his wife.
