A suit which will make some peaceful justices sit up and take notice, even If It does not return to the petitioner his S-months-otd calf, the cause of the trouble, was filed In the superior court Monday by Arthur Payton against Vlr gll Jones, justice of the peace for the four hundred and sixty-ninth district. Payton asks 11,000 damages for the al leged Issuance of warrants at the In stance of R. K. Echols, who claimed the calf, for the sole pupose of making costs for the justice. Payton charges that In addition to being guilty of official misconduct In Issuing possessory warrants for the calf, without flrst making proper In vestigation, Justice Jones discriminated against him. He alleges that when he swore before the Justice that the calf was his property a warrant for per jury, sworn out by Echols, was served on him, but that when he wished to have a warrant served on Echols for the same offense Justice Jones re fused to have It served. The petitioner claims that C. H. Mc Crary, an official of Justice Jones' court, coerced him Into agreeing to settle the case by turning over the calf to Echols. This, he says, he did. When his counsel learned how he had been treated Payton alleges that the attorney Instituted trover and ball pro ceedings ngalnst McCrary on August 14. In retaliation Payton says that Mc Crary, Instigated by Jones, swore out a warrant before Justice Cook charg ing him with perjury. The petitioner says that after he had been arrested and sent to Jail he refused to be tried before Justice Cook, nnd, on being taken before Justice Orr, was dls charged. Payton claims that, while the dock, ets of Jones' court show that the pro*, ecutors paid the costs, his calf has been taken from him and never re turned, and that the whole proceedings were simply for the purpose of extort ing fees from him. $40 for Flashing Pistol. Special to The Georgian. Batnbrldge, Qa., Sept. 11.—The most Interesting case to come up In city court here Saturday was that of Jim Yeates, charged with pointing a pistol at W. B. Ivey. The Jury returned a verdict of guilty, with rf recommenda tion, and the judge fined Teates »1 and coats, which amounted to <40. to the legislature. The Industrial cen-. ters administered a stinging rebuke to Littlefield. "We fought against terrible odds. Corporate Interests flooded the district with money. Speaker Cannon, Secre tary Taft and Senator Lodge were rushed to Littlefield’s assistance and n personal appeal from President Roose- velt seeking hi* re-election was sent Into the district. Yet, In spite of such heroic methods, Littlefield's majority wo* reduced by 4,000 or more votes."

The dead are: Mrs. James Quinn, of Rockaway, and Francis W. Ford, aged 30, a city surveyor. The Injured are: Mrs. M. Kane, of Leland place, taken to St. Joseph's hospital: condition serious. Henry Dot- beau, racing chauffeur, cut and bruised on head; J. Lawrence, a clubman, bad ly cut and bruised. Mrs. Quinn was killed and Mrs. Kane Injured by a big touring automobile, which was speeding through Sheridan boulevard for Rockaway. They had no chance to escape when the chauf feur sounded the horn, for the car was then upon them. They were hurled Into the gutter. Spectators say that the chauffeur put on more speed and the auto dis appeared In the direction of Jamaica without the occupants looking back. The car's speed was so great that no body could see the number. Surveyor Ford was crushed to death between two automobiles, one his own, on the Pelham avenue bridge over the Bronx river, near Bronx park. The owner of the second machine said he was Otto F. Flelshmann, sec retary and treaaurer of Flelshmann Baking Company, of 878 Broadway. The Injured man was wrapped up In a blanket, put Into the Flelshmann ma chine and hurried to a hospital.

RIQHT MAN FOR THE PLACE When he stepped ashore after his long and brilliant tour abroad with his bride, Congressman Nicholas Long worth little dreamed that a new and Important honor was to be bestowed upon him. After th# princely recep tions that he and Mrs. Longworth had received In foreign capitals his mind was turned upon the coming campaign In his native state, Ohio, and upon his K rt as committeeman In the big fight Ing made by the International Poli cy-holders' Committee for clean man agement In the New York and Mutual Life Insurance Companies. Hs had no Idea, however, that the committee, which Is made up of governors of stales, supreme Judges, high ecclesi astics, business men and powerful rep resentatives of great labor bodies, was to make him th. secretary of Its cam paign. The responsibility entailed In this offlee Is alone great enough for many men of no common ability, but the committee, aft.r careful considera tion of all possible candidates, selected Nicholas Longworth as Just the man for the place, HI* previous record in state and national politics and In the public affairs of his city, coupled with his strong popularity, wer. the point! that won for him this hla latest honor n honor of no little Importance when It Is considered that the Interests of 1,460,000 policy-holders throughout the world are at stake. Th* routine de tails of the secretary’s office will be at tended to by a careful assistant, but all weighty matters will be settled by Con gressman Longworth himself. That he will be on* of the busiest men In the 'how; nicH. Longworth. country this fall goes without saying. He has added new enthusiasm and optimism to th* movemenL which ha* already been remarkably successful, de spite the bitterest opposition from the corruptionist forces in the camps of the New York and Mutual Companies. COUNTY COPS TO KICK AT HOURS SUGGESTED TRY A WANT AD IN THE GEORGIAN The county pollre force will know Its fate Wednesday afternoon. A meeting of the county commissioner* ha* been called by Chairman Hubert L. Cul berson for Y o'clock In the afternoon of that day to decide upon the loca tions of the three camps, at which the men will make their headquarters, and to formulate rulea for th* government of the force. Each of the twelve old men and (he twenly-four new regular men has heen notified to be at the meeting tor the purpose of receiving Instructions re garding the rulea which are to govern them, their hours of servlre and any thing else which th. member* of the board may have to tell them. chairmen E. V. Carter, of the roads and bridges committee of the commis sion, said Tuesday morning that noth ing definite had been done toward lo cating the camps or providing rules for the government of the force. Although there may be no kicking, '* a sure thing that If the men have to spend practically all of th.lr time at the three station* a lot of dlasatls- factlnn will result. All of the men. old and new, who have been heard to express an opinion have said that they are willing to be on duty and subject to call at any and all times, but most of them will balk when It comes to spending twenly-four hours a day In the saddle and In camp away from their families. Every member of the present force has a telephone and can be located within a few minute* by the chief, and every one of the new men who has expressed himself has made known his willingness to pay for a telephone If he does not have to spend his time In barracks. A Georgian reporter has talked to many cltlsens from different parts of the county, and with but few excep tions they have said that they would prefer to see th* men stationed at their homes when off duty than for them to be mobilised in three camp*. It Is thought that much more efficient ser vice can be- obtained In that way, as the men are well scattered over the county. It Is said that when, the men gather In the offlee of the commission Wed-1 nesday afternoon that will be the first time they have all been seen together! by the commissioners since the reor ganization seven yean ago. 1 Insurance That Insures Is what a man wants when he seeks protection for those de pendent upon him.
