out of th* state. As the vote showed,
no oppoeltlon tvas given to th* meas

The lost few minute* ware utilised
In the aecond reading of bills
Many Billt Tabled.
The bill by Mr. t'hrlatophar, of Hall,
lo change the law allowing notaries
and Justices of tbe peace In cities of
t,000 lo hold separate courts, so that
the city census Instead of the United
Mtatw census would determine the pop
ulation of such cities, likewise passed,
ns also that of Mr. Longley, of Troup,
to preserve th* 1 tattered and bullet-
holed Hags of the state.
Many Important measures, reached
In their order, were tabled because of
th* meager attendance of the mem
bers.
Make Cigarette Smoking Misdemeanor,
Th* cigarette queatlon stirred up con
atderable commotion among th* mem
bers, and nflavr about an hour waa
consumed In fervid oratory upon the
pan of several members. It all "went
up In smoke,” and the Mil was taMed,
upon the motion of Mr. Fleder, of Bibb.
The bill was by Mr. Porter, of Floyd,
and Mr. Corn, of Towns.
Mr. Porter explained ail
law' now forbids anyone from selling
or furnishing to uny minor any ciga
rette or rlgarett* papers or tobacco,
but lie had observed that It did not
prevent young boy* from smoking ci
garette* on tha streets. This bill sought
to ivrocur* Information as to the source
from which they ware furnished. It
makas U a misdemeanor for any minor
to be caught smoking a cigarette or to
be caught with any In his possession or
any rlgaratl* papers or tobacco, but
the minor can rellava himself by fur
nlshlng th* Information.aa to who gavi
or sold him th* article*. That waa th*
only way In which violation* of the law
could ba proaecuted.
Mr. Anderson objected to tbe provi
sion lo ronvIcL aa the boy might fur
nish lb* Informtalon a* to v*her* he got
th* articles, but It would not be auf-
flclent to convict, and yet under th*
bill It would not relieve th* boy. Mr.
Porter offered an amendment to over-
conie thla objection.
Mr. William* elicited applaua* when
he said he would prosacule the low

Vaken to th* Grady haspltal Thurs
day night In a beastly atatc of Intoxi
cation and In a serious condition, Al
bert Taylor, 1# yean of age, a bright
llttl* fallow with an abundance of
pretty curly brown hair, Friday morn
ing declared to the' hospital physicians
that hi* father mad* him drunk,
threatening him with th* lash If he did
not drink.
As a result of the little boy's story,
hla father, Quincy Taylor, of 10 Corput
street, an employee of Schmidt's bak
ery, I* being sought by police and de
teetlvas.
When the child was drat taken to the
hospital Friday night about 10:20
o'clock. It waa thought ha had been
mysteriously drugged. At that time th*
father told Bicycle Policemen Arro-
wood and Wylie a remarkable story.
He aald ha was going to hla homo and
foond hla boy lying unconscious In th*
* T the Tabernacle Infirmary In
street. II* picked up the child
he said, alung Mm acroas hla back, and
took him home. Shortly afterwards,
the lAd waa sent to the hoapttal In an
ambulance.
Father Told Straight Tala.
Tha tathtr la said to have been In a
drunken condition at the time, but told
such a straightforward story, the police
never suspected he had mads th* boy
drunk. The boy waa In a deep atujmr
and had the appearance of being under
" e Influence of some powerful drug.
On hla arrival at tb* hospital, and<as
soon as the physicians had made an
eeamlnatlon, however, It was discover
ed he was In a terrible elate of Intoxi
cation. It waa seen he waa in a serious
condition and steps were promptly
taken In an effort to save him.
The unconscious little fellow was
taken Into the operating room, where
the doctor* had to work with him fully
an hour and a half before lie revived.
Ho powerful waa the coma that It waa
found necessary to apply a strong elec
tric current to the little fellow to
arouse him.
He waa later placed In tbe male
ward, and, after careful attention, re
covered sufficiently by Friday morn
Ing to leave the hospital.
Home Is Deserted.
Where the boy went la not known.
Inquiry at hi a home developed the
fart that no one was there. Neither
the child nor hla parents could
found and no one In the neighborhood
could give any Information concerning
them.
On learning of the affair. Police
Chief Jennings Instructed the detective
department to make an Investigation,
and Detectives Simpson and Campbell
were detailed. Ttiay visited th* hos
pital, but found the little patient gone.
They talked with th* doctorn, however,
end obtained from them tbe story of
the boy.
Ur. Mangel, the. houae surgeon, and
Drs. Baird, Cline and Yarbrough had
all talked with the boy, and to them
he related the same story.
"My father took me up town with
him lost night,” said th* little fellow,
“and made me drunk. I don't know
what all he gave me. He waa drink
Ing and told me If I did not drink what
he told me to, he would whip me. I
was afraid not to do as he said and I
Just hnd to keep on drinking until
oat my senses."
