Smith does not make returns on hie Smlthonla, Dan Irlvllle and Carneavllle railroad, two and a half mllaa long, and the Smith onla and Dunlap railroad, eight miles long, by Auguat 1, Comptroller General Wright will assess the property. Colonel Smith, for eome reason, has fulled to make returns on hla two short lines, and a faw days ago the comptroller again reminded him of-the nmlsslon by sending another eet of blanks. The only other corporation falling to make returns Is the electric car line out of Chattanooga to Chlckajnauga park. If the owners don’t come across by Auguat 1 the comptroller will assess them. For soma reasons the comptroller could not get a hearing from the Mlllen and Southwestern railroad and the Jllrtvllle, Swainsboro.and Red Bluff railroad. It Anally developed that both lines had been absorbed by John Skelton Williams' new line from Au gusta to the coast. When the returns come In they were not satisfactory: On 61 mllea of line, which la largely In Jenkins, they make returns nt It,600. On 17 1-4 mllea of the Mldvllte, -Swainsboro and Rad Stuff, running through Emanuel and Burke, they make returns of 12,600 par milt. General Wright haa assessed both lines 11,000 more per mile.

SEVENTY-FIRST FOR CHICKAMAUGA Vlnte Tanner, colored, who took possession of the steps leading Into Springfield Baptist church at La- Grange, and by curses and nasty lan guage prevented the congregation from assembling for worship, must serve out her conviction. The supreme court affirmed the low' er court In denying a new trial In a decision handed down Friday. The woman. It appears, went to the church before the hour for service, and refused to allow any one to enter, say ing: "I am the truth, the way and the light, and no one can enter here except through me." nd there Vlnle stayed threatening violence to any who tried to enter. The congregation dispersed without holding service. The verdict was amply supported by the evidence, It Is held. Special to The Georgian.

The Casino promises a bill of un usual excellence next week, and one that will undoubtedly draw large crowds to Ponce DeLeon Park nightly. "The Great Hrlndamnur," known us the "Master Jail Breaker and Handcuff Wltard," Is the feature of the show and Is one of th* moat mysterious per sonages In vaudeville, accomplishing as he doe* things that seem to partake of the supernatural. Handcuff him as you may, this remarkable man will 'within a few minutes succeed In free Ing himself. He has escaped from over four hundred and seventy prisons and la sold to enjoy the proud distinction of being the only man who haa ever recalled from Bing Bing after hts hands were securely handcuffed to the hare of the cell and the door lorked and bolted. He Invites the police, detect ives and dealers In handcuffs or man acles to bring their own Irons each night und to secure him In such a man. as to prevent his escaping. No Irons or manacles are barred by the "Wtsard," whose only stipulation la that they he all In Arst class working order. He Is the wonder of the police departments nnd handcuff experti wherever he haa appeared and will take especial delight In mystifying the Atlanta department officers.

STRAY DOGS ALARM ATLANJA_ CITIZENS More Than One Hundred Canines Slain by Cops This Summer. The epidemic, of maddofttls broke out In a new spot Friday morning be fore breakfast and the police depart ment had another call for defenders of the home. This time It was at 142 Piedmont avenue, where Are mangy cure were making merry over a bone. Call OfAcers Dunton and Galleher shot two, but the other three got away. More than one hundred dogs have been killed by the police since the warm weather began and the war of extermination Is still going on. It la probable that but few of the dog* have had hydrophobia, but the cltlxens have become alarmed and the police officers hare adopted the principle that a dead dog Is the beet dog. The city Is being relieved of the stray cure that have Infested the alleys and the danger of real hydrophobia Is being diminished. Members of the police department complain that the dog catchers’ wag ons which were formerly In operation have been discontinued for some cause end the work which properly belongs to the health department Is being forced on the police force. Fully half the calls received at the station are complaints of stray dogs on the street*. MELONS ARE TABOOED AT TERMINAL STATION No More Afternoon Feasts in the Baggage Room. : : = LEGISLATIVE PEN SHOTS No more watermelon cuttings In the baggage room at the Terminal sta tion, and the hearts of the employees are sad In consequence. The edict against this favorite pas time among the twenty negroes em ployed In that deportment was Issued Friday by Baggage Master Heyward. Watermelon cuttings have been the favorite amusement of the employees of the baggage room every afternoon since the season for this luscious fruit began. But oe those who enjoyed the fruit were not particular as to where they placed the rind*, Mr. Heyward found It next to Impossible to main tain the high standard of neatness In his department which Is conspicuous In other sections of the station, and so has found It necessary to order the following rule enforced: "It I* positively ordered that no em- iloyee of the bogL >e permitted to cut am melon while on duty and on the pretty lies of the Terminal company. The extent to which this ho* been done la very offensive and has caused much complaint on account of the unsightly condition of the Interior of the build ing, on account of melon seeds and rinds being thrown down promiscuous ly. Understand that this condition will not be tolerated any longer. "J. B. HEYWARD, "Baggage Master. ELKINS’ OLD PAL ROW ANUS HOME! Baker Was Arrested Second Tiine Within Two Weeks. MR.

Isn't It. strange that every-man In the houae who gets up to explain hla vote prefaces his remarks with an apology for taking the time of the house? Mr. Smith, of Green, was given an ovation In the house Thursday morn ing. Mr. Smith has a way of making a speech every ttme the opportunity Is offered. Thursday he got up to ex plain his vote and was greeted .with tremendous applause. About every six words he was greeted with outbursts of slamming of desks and stamping of feet that mod* him wonder how he was making auch a hit. He sat down all Millies. It was a great hit that Mr. Smith made. The members of the house who applauded didn't do so bad cither. ... Mr. Roper, of Pickens, Is a faithful msmber of. the house. Mr. Porter, of Floyd, had a bill passed to kill cigarettes In Georgia, but he didn’t mention cigar*. The gentle man from Floyd Juat eats the latter, llguratlvcly (speaking. The house won't pass the senate bills and the senate says the house must or there will be a retaliation coming. As this Is a regular feature of the session of the general assembly every summer, a story to that effect might be kepi "set up” In the newspaper shops. Besb Wright, Tom Felder (Little kin Wright, Joe Hall. Mr. Anderson, of Chatham, and Mr. Roper, of Pick ens -how'* that for a well assorted collection of the type* In th* house? * “Republican Pole Tax Club No. 1, Frog Town, 22 Bryan street, Weet Sa vannah. C. Bolden, Secretary," is wast- Ing a lot of postage and using the En glish language rather roughly In a ae rial form of communication to sens- tors. Nobody haa ever yet determined Just what alii “Frog Town Pole Tax Club," apd Secretary C. Bolden. Evidently Secretary Bolden bo* a dint notion that Benator Foy, from the Savannah dis trict, has some sort of bill about "pole taxes," but the Savannah man mod estly denies It. Secretary Bolden seems to have a special liking for ator McHenry, wno has received sev ernl post cards. This Is the latest: “Hon. W. S. McHenry, Dear Sir, Do You think that All Of the White Peo pie and the Negores In all of the Stati Have Clean Hands from Paying They Pole Taxes fro 1206. Under the Pres ent Law why dont they Introduce Bill to Put Money in the Treasury, and not to Keep It Out Respfuly, C, Bolden, Secty." "Pole Tax" Is not all worrying Frog Town, however, aa witness: "Hon, Senator Bloodworth, Atlnat, Ga, Dear Sir, We Bege.that you Will Introduce this bill In the senate for ua That All Barbers Shops Must Run Thoy Curtan Up, at 12, oCloek Bata- day Night the Reason why we ask You to Introduco thla bll wo have Send Barber Bill to Your Rep And Senator to Introduce a Bill Fro the Barbers In the Senate nnd th House Hoping you will Attend to this as soon os you can and o Bilge yours Resptful, C. Bolden, Secty." If It keeps up C. Boldsn will be about the first man compelled to register un der the Wright antl-Iobbylng bill, Senator D. P. Rose, of the Fourth district, has a deep rumbling bass that he uses to fine advantage when he on the floor to speak. He Is a rem ably fine looking man, and Is very popular with his fellow senators be- cause of his unvarying good humor. “I see I am a beneftdary of Russell Sage's will,” was the asertlon of prominent member of the upper house to a group the other morning. "How's that?" came the chorus. "Well, the papers say he left his money to chnrlty, and If I don't come under that heading nobody does." Senator J. B. Ware, of the Thirty- seventh, continues 111 at his home In Hogansvllle, and It la Improbable that he will bo able to attend another ses sion of the senate before adjournment Hon. J. G. Cain, of Louisville, Ga., woe 4 visitor to the senate Thuraday. He represented the Eighteenth district (now represented by Herbert Williams) In 1672-1 and was also a member of the constitutional convention of 1676. Though well advanced In years. Colo nel Cain Is still erect and vigorous In body and Intellect. He 1s one of the leading lawyers of his section. HE SA VED LINCOLN'S LIFE, YET IS IN DIRE DISTRESS By private Leased Wire.

Later the Mississippi woman telegraphed her attorneys, and after consulting them relinquished all claim for the time, stating that the expense of dragging the cose through Canadian courts would outweigh the gains.
