YEOMANS HAS ISSUED FINAL INSTRUCTIONS A. L. CURTIS FOR ALDERMAN; A BUSINESS MAN'S RACE Councilman A. L. Curtis seems to hove scored a signal victory In his race for alderman from the First ward. The Indications on all sides point to this solution of’the question. Dr. Curtis has been particularly for tunate In drawing to his support a large majority of the buslntss men of the city, and It Is due largely to his own success as a business man that he will get this support. The business man wants a successful business man to handle Important city matters. From a business tandpolnt he has every claim to preference. At the Casino. Stuart Barnes, who has several bright and Instructive songs and the best monologue heard here In many days, relieved the menotony In tl e pro. gram at the Ponce DeLeon Casino .Monday night. Holcomb, Curtis and Company, In "The New Teacher," fur nished uproarious amusement to ltfvers ft the "old deestrlck schule" and such forms of entertainment. But the ot tering, as a whole, was dull and unin spiring. But Stuart Barnes Is worth hear ing. • He doesn't try to sing very much, but his songs are really clever. Up closes with a monologue which Is witty, clean and modern, a distinct relief from the usual moth-eaten half hour of hot air furnished the public under that name. Adams and Drew pull oft an, alleged (Inman dialect stunt which Is «uppos- rd to deal with automobiles though the German member talks as If his car. bureter Isn't carbureter and only oc caslonal words of real language ever reach the audience. Bessie Phillips sings three songs. Marvelous Merrill, who does bicycle stunts, Is Interesting principally for his capacity for falling down when he tries hardest to stay up, He pleased the audience by risking his neck In turning a somersault on a bicycle af ter half an hour's work rigging up complicated apparatus. The cameragraph shows "The Moon shiner," an Interesting set of scenes which close with everybody dead. The first night audience was a big one an the theater was cool and comfortable in spile of the temperature up ‘.own. Vote for J. G. Wsodwan for County Trsasur«r.

Out of the Intense glare of the noon day sun, that almost made the streets stxzlo with the heat, came a blinding bolt of lightning, followed by a, terrific crash that caused everyone to stop and see what had happened.

Thaw, has a small calendar whereon he cross es off, with heavy marks, each day that Is spent. He is, It is said, counting the hours, each of which as it passes brings him nearer to that fateful day when he Is to be placed on trial charged* with the murder of Stanford White, whom Jie shot down during a performance at the Madison Square Roof Garden. Frugal fare and the quiet life In pris on have had a beneficial effect upon Thaw, and today he is a much more hale and robust man than he was on the day of the tragedy. His life at the Tombs Is by no means an Isolated one. Ht Is visited now and then by his mother, occasionally also by his sister, Mrs. George Carnegie, and now and then at rare Intervals by his brother, Joslah. And, dally, rain or shine, there comes to cheer him, his beautiful wife, Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, she for love of whom he committed the deed which has brought him face to face with the elec tric chair. Each day, too, she brings him In a basket some dainties which she knows he likes, fowl or fruit or pastry. Hours before his wife arrives in the morning, Thaw reads the papers, or letters— sometimes as many as 50—which are sent to him from perfect strangers. These letters often try his patience not a little, some being from persona who have constituted themselves Judge Jury and executioner and inform him that If they had their way he would go to the electric chair without as much as a trial. Other letters are con soling. These are mainly from young >yomen, while the other sort are from men. Still others contain advice "sure to bring freedom.” All letter? are turn ed over by Thaw to his counsel, Clif ford W. Hartrldge. What with calisthenics in his cell nnd such other exercise as he gets by walk Ing In the prison yard. Dr. Frank Mc Guire has snld that there Is scant dan ger that Thaw will need any medicine or even tonics. He has grown to be one of the moat robust of all the pris oners.

The buggy was hitched under a tree around a curve In the road and out of sight. Mr. Wallace helped sing a hymn or ;o and (hen settled down on the hard bench to listen to a regular old-fash ioned camp meeting sermon and brush away gnats and horseflies. His ears caught the words of the preacher, but his mind dwelt on something else. He was thinking of what was tucked away beneath a white linen cloth In a big basket under the buggy seat. "Yellow-legged chicken and a dish of gravy, white rolls and corn muffins, sweet pickles, hnrd-bolled eggs and pie I Lemon pie, custard pie, pumpkin pie, apple, peach; cake of all sorts! Maybe there’s a little freeser of Ice cream. My folks know how to put up Mr Wall... thmii.hr of Mr. Wallace thought of thought _ dinner. that dinner, and the more he the hungrier he grew.

Everybody admits the race for Treasurer is be tween Culberson and Wood ward. Who do you want to win? Dameon, three Atlanta youngsters, not old enough to vole. Walking around Is hungry work. The sun had climbed high when one of the boys remarked that It was pretty near dinner time. "Wonder If any of these folks will ask us to eat?” said another. Just then the three passed the Wal lace buggy. Young Flanigan stopped nnd sniffed the atmosphere. "I smell fried chicken," he said. “There's a country ham In that bas ket If my nose tells the truth,” said the elder Dnineon. From (he meeting drifted the strains of the long meter doxology. What was to be done must be done quickly. The boys hesitated no longer, but disap peared with the basket nnd sought a shady corner beyond the hill. When Mr. Wallace and his party ar ced and found the buggy empty there were some hungry faces. . The camp meeting trustees were Informed. "They got nil that linen and silver ware and the basket, too,” said Mr. Wallace. 'Did you say there was chicken In thnt dinner?" asked the trustees. "We must find the robbers." The daylight robbery had been watched by a young lady who gave a description of the outlaw band. "One of them wore new tan shoes, with real wide strings In them, and a white straw hat,” she exclslmed. Satisfaction the Clew. County Pnllcomen Maddox and Dun bar were given this clew. Mr. Dunbnr looked up the big road and saw three young men appronchlng. They wore the satisfied expression that comes with the consciousness of a good din ner well disposed of. And the youth In Ihe middle wore new ton shoes, with real wide strings In them, nnd a white straw hat. Sunday night Clarence Flanigan slept In the Towjer. Whether the memory of his crime sat as heavily upon his conscience as the various kinds of pie anil cake lay upon a harder worked portion of hi* anatomy he did not nay Monday morning. The Dameon boys were released on bond, hut all three are charged with larceny and will appear before the criminal court at Its next term. Lima. Laths and Shingles Carloads and dray loads.
