"Why, year or two ago I went over the records for the i>a*t thirty years und found, s» often as not, that we have good weather for the next forty days after July 28, even If It rained, or bad weather If It were clear that day. I don't believe there I* anything In It but just Idle superstition, and no one else would If It were not repeated so often that after a while they get to believing It. In spite of themselves.” That's the way the scientific weather man talks about It, so If you are going to lie up-to-date and not old-fogy, you will just have to think of July 28 the same us you do of any other day, with tlie wish added that tt won't be as hot u* It usually Is at that season of the year.' Mr. Marbury says there's noth ing tn It snd that ends tlie discussion. OFFICERSELECTED BY KAPPA SIGMA Mp*'lrtl to The Georgian.

July 28.—A* the result of a heated political discussion, John Collier, of Rome, seriously stabbed A. J. Wynn near here Wednesday. They were discussing the gubernatorial race, when Collier became angry and rushed at Wynn. on th* jury that tried him. Judge Bpeer denied.the writ of habeas corpus, but signed an appeal from hi* decision to the, United States court of appeals, which does not convene until next Oc tober. This will delay the execution of tho old man until that time anyhow and Cooper Intends to fight the case right on up to tha United States supreme court again. Mr. Cooper will take the cases of -the Rawlins boys before the prison commission next week and endeavor to have their sentence* commuted to life Imprisonment. Since th* supreme court’s affirm* tlon of Judge Mitchell’* denial of a new trial to the Rawlins, nothing has been heard from Attorney Jofin H. Cooper, relative to a hearing before the prlsoh commission. Two petitions, both containing about 150 names, and several tetters hare been on file for some time with the commlsslatn. These petitions and let ters ask for commutation of sentence &V. life Imprisonment for Milton and Jesse Rawlins. One or two letters make pleas for tlie negro, A If Moore, on the ground that be ii-jj the dupe of the elder Rawlins. But in none ot .them Is any voice lifted for J. G. Rawlins. Whether or not Attorney Cooper proposes to make a fight for the old man does not ap pear. As the hangings are fixed for next Friday Mr. Cooper will have to move early next week for his clients If he hopes to stay tha execution*.' COURT OF APPEALS .11 SENATE . Monday at 11:30, Immediately after the senate journal Is read, the court of appeals bill will be taken up and made the continuing order until disposed of. It It Is found that not enough mem bers are present to Insure Its passage by the constitutional majority of thir ty, debate will continue on It until Tuesday. The amendment put on the bill by the senate constitutional come ralttee will be adopted and. It la un derstood, wllj, he acceptable to the house. The amendment provides (hat the three Judges of the court shall be elect ed by the people In November, their term* to run for two, four aod six years. After election the Judges will draw lots for the terms. When the court of appeals bill Is disposed of the child labor measure will be taken up and given attention until passed. The senate amendment does not materially affect the measure as IHUised by the house. That the bill will pass tha senate now Is a foregone con elusion. Wednesday the McHenry Western and Atlantic lease bill will be the spe cial order.' Though Senator McHenry's’ proposition has met with some strong opposition, he feels confident that the upper house will pass It. It Is possible that Senator Candler will try to get up his substitute to the Hall tax assessor bill during the-week. There Is much opposition to Senator Candler's substitute, and It Is doubtful If It will pass. These are the more Important meas ures to be considered In the senate the coming week. Unless the members kick over the traces, as some Intimate they will do, and hold up house busi ness, a big lot of local measures will ba put through. LEAVES . grand procurator. Dr. J.

CITY WINS IN ITS CASE AGAINST SOU, EXPRESS The Southern Express Company will have to pay' the city of Atlanta 3350 occupation tax for IMS, so decided by a decision of the supreme court Saturday morning. A fl. fa. was Issued against the com pany In December. 1803. by the comp troller to require the express people to pay $2,81)8.85, taxes due Atlanta for the year 1853. The company claimed that they paid all but 9280, which should have been deducted under the act of August 17, 1903. But as this occupation tax was due prior to the time the act became or effect the court held that Its object was not retroactive, and would not exempt them for.ttuM year. Made in New Post- office Plans. ARCHITECT TAYLOR COMES NEXT WEEK "I Expect to See Sub-Treas ury Established by. Next Congress,” Says Uncle Lon. "According to the plans of the new government building to be constructed in Atlanta soon, accommodations will be provided forsthe sub-treasury which expect to see established here by congress at Its next session,” said Con gressman. Leonidas F. Livingston to a Georgian reporter Saturday morning. Congressman Livingston had juat re calved a telegram from Supervising Architect J. Knox Taylor, of the treas ury department, stating that he would be tn Atlanta on August 6, and will over' with Mr. Livingston and Postmaster Blodgett the detans of the building which has been badly needed for so long. Plans Alrtady Drawn, Congressman Livingston stated that the supervising architect had already drawn plans for a building for Atlanta, but that It was probable It woukl be necessary to make some changes In or der to meet local conditions and needs. The fact that Mr. Taylor, who ha* charge ot all buildings constructed by the government, Is making a personal visit to Atlanta Instead of sending one of his assistants, shows how Important ths department considers the matter ot having a suitable building erected. Congressman Livingston has been working for the establishment of sub-treasury In Atlanta for a number of years, and when it does come It will be a monument to hla unflagging In terest and zeal for the welfare of hla constituents. The fact that the de partment has gone ao far as to.lncor porato In the plans of the new building room and accommodations for Its e* tabltshment shows that there la little or no doubt of Its being placed here In th* very near future. There Is no such branch of the government at the pres ent time In the South, except at New Orleans, and no one has questioned but that It was only a matter of time until ona waa placed here, and with Its central position' nnd other natural ad vantages, Congressman Livingston la certain that the plum will come hla way.
