Washington, Dec. 10.—The critical
condition of ex-8enutor Brown, ’
was shot twice by Mrs. Annie
Bradley while In hla room in the Ral
eigh hotel Saturday, prevented Mrs,
.Bradley’s arraignment before the po
lice court for a preliminary hearing
today.
Ills life hanging b>‘ a mere thread,
Brown tosses in his bed gt the Emer
gency hospital, while physicians and
nurses hover about him In a light for
hla life. That he will die Is believed,
though a possible chance for recovery'
exists.
Whether Mrs. Bradley Is to he ar
raigned on a charge of Hsaaiitt with
intent to kill, or of the more serious
one of murder In the first degree, de
pends on the Issue of the next few
hours. If Brown does not die before
tomorrow morning Mrs. Bradley will
be arraigned before the police court on
the lesa serious charge.
RESCUED FROM DEATH
AFTER TAKING CHLOROFORM
For the third time In less than two
weeks W. E. Edwards, a young white
man. was saved late Sunday afternoon
from death by chloroform.
Edwards, whose home Is In Colum
bus, was found Sunday afternoon In
the union depot In a dazed condition,
a handkerchief, saturated with chloro
form. covering his face. He wax hur
riedly taken to the Grady hospital,
where he was si»on revived. A short
while later he had recovered .sufficient
ly to leave the hospital.
When, in the past, public Institutions
or public causes, or Institutions pri
vate in nature but public In their In-
iluence and results, have needed finan
cial aid and have asked for it, the
"Atlanta Spirit" has invariably mani
fested Itself, and the business men of
the city, as well as others, have placed
the money ut the feet of those In need.
Will this spirit manifest itself In the
Interest of. the Georgia School of Tech
nology?
Georgia School of Technology' Is In
need of $7,500 In order to enlarge Its
campus and ward off stagnation and
perhaps decay. It Is overcrowded on
its present small campus, and had to
turn away many student* this year for
lack of dormitory facilities.
The Georgian, In the Interests of At
lanta. the state and the whole South,
which have derived untold benefit In
the past from the skill and knowledge
which Georgia Tech, the South’s great
est engineering school, has placed In
Its midst, has taken up the cause of
this great Institution and has appealed
to Atlanta’s men to respond with the
little financial aid asked by Dr. K. G.
Matheson. president of the school.
Subscription Is Started.
F. L. Seely, publisher of The Geor
gian. has started "the ball rolling" to
help the school by subscribing $250 to
ward the cause.*
A few others have gladly reached Into
their purses for financial support tor
Georgia Tech. As a question of civic
pride, ns well ns a question of Invest
ment for the good of the South, every
citizen of Atlanta should Join tills band
of public-spirited men. None should
have it said of him that he failed to re
spond to such a worthy cause.
The subscriptions to this cause up to
the present time are as follows:
Atlanta Georgian $250.00
D. c\ Barrow 100.00
Martin Amorous 100.00
George Crawford .100.00
C. E. Sclple 25.00
A Friend of the School 250.00
There is no more room on the present
campus of sixteen acres, as was point
ed out In The Georgian Saturday, on
which to build much needed buildings.
Dr. Matheson has options on the only
vacant lots In the vicinity of the school.
These options expire January 1, how
ever, and unless they are secured by
that time the opportunity to get them
will probably he lost forever, as the
owner Intends building on them after
that thne.
The Georgia School of Technology
has only >2,325, with which to pay the
$7,660 necessary to get the bus. Of the
amount already available, $826 has been
subscribed and tin* rest was contrib
uted hy the state.
There are three buildings of which
le school Is In absolute need, but
hlch cannot be built* unless more
ground Is added to the campus. These
buildings are the mining and engineer,
ing Building, a dormitory and a gym
nasium and auditorium.
Needs a Gymnasium.
A gynlnnsluni is a department which
a great school cannot well be without.
Georgia Tech Is conducting gymnasium
classes now, but for lack of u building
they are conducted In a basement, which
has hardly any facilities for the pur
pose. This basement Is so small that
only a part «»f the freshman class can
be taken In It at a time. Outside of
the freshman class the students cunnot
get gymriAsiuni work regularly.
Vanderbilt and other great Institu
tions of the South have each a separate
building for a gymnasium. It should
not be said of Atlanta that she allowed
her great Institution to compare ao un
favorably In this line with schoAils of
other cities, which have le*N money
than Atlunta.
one of the crying needs of the Insti
tution is a dormitory building. At the
first of the present school year there
were 225 applicants for admission to
the school, for whom Dr. Matheson
could not furnish rooms at the Institu
tion. Many of these did not enter
school on this account, as their parents
did not wish them to be at the institu
tion unless they could room on the
campus. Those of this number who
did enter had to secure rooms at n
In the city.
Dr. Matheson states that he could
have had an enrollment of lot) more
student* easily this year If he had had
the dormitory room. Ife wants to erect
a dormitory, but cannot do It until he
secures the ground on which to put it.
Atlanta Should 8ubscriba.
These 100 students would have spent
a large-amount of money In the city
and Atlanta would hove been much the
gainer. But larger number* still will
have to lie turned away next year ,f
this property I* not secured. Atlanta
should prevent till* by subscribing the
money. She should get the land and
then reap the big profits resulting.
At the present time the classes »f
the mining and engineering department
are scattered In three or four building*

"LOKVKLAND. Chairman."
Christiana, Dec. 10.—President Roosv*
velt has been awarded the Nobel pear
prize for 1906.
There were a number of randidut»s I
with recommendations from various
parts of the world. Among* the closest
rivals of President Roosevelt was the
originator of Esperanto, the new uni
versal language. The Nobel prize wis
given to President Roosevelt for his
successful efforts in bringing tlie Rus
so-Japanese war to an end.
This Is the fifth award of the Nobel
omes j prize, which was established by a be
quest of Dr. Alfred Bernhard Nobel, a
famous chemist of Sweden. He left
$40,000 to be divided Into annual prizes
for various lines of endeavor, one of
them being the so-called "peace prize,
or "for the best effort toward the fru-
ternltA* of nations, and the promotion of
peace."
The sponsors of President Roosevelt
were Acting President Harry Piatt
Judson, of Chicago University; Presl
These pietureH don’t look like
those of modern, up-to-date school
rooms, do they?
Well, they are not. Two of
them represent that basement
room in the Fair street school that
they formerly used to put coal in
instead of children. That waa be
fore the kcIiooIr became so con-
gested.
The other picture, the one allow
ing all that old rubbish, used to be
a school room. too. That’s the one
the doctors said was unhealthy.
The children became ill, and so the
room had to be abandoned, with
two others just like it. A fourth
room—the one with the old-faah-
ioned atove shown in one of the ac
companying picture*, was to have
been abandoned nl*o, but the at
tendance inci'enaed aoraoidly th
school authorities couldn’t Ial
the doctors’ advice in that
and so the children were compi
i cd to study there this year.
It lias been raining hard all day
.Monday, and this kind of weather
makes it hard for the children in
those basement rooms. The board
floor is just above another of ce
ment, and the cement floor is on
the ground. Rainy weather
tnakea tho floors damp. For there
is no way for the water .to get
away from the ground under
neath. It souks ip, and then things
get damp. -
Are Badly Lighted.
This rainy weather is bad, too,
on the eyes, and those basement
rooms are not lighted ns well as
those in the Pryor street school. ■
In fact any comparison of those
old frame schools—they were
Iniilt thirty years ago—with that
new Pryor street school is odious.
The Pryor street school is every
thing that could be wished for in
tho modern school line. There is
plenty of light and, ventilation.
And they don’t use those old-
fashioned stoves shown in the pic
tures. Architects sav stoves won’t
do for heating school rooms. The
Pr.vor street school is ventilated
with pure hot air in winter and
cool air in summer. It’s a modern
way of heating schools, and it is
more healthy, too. The children
are not so liable to sickness.
Everything about the 'Pryor
street school is built on the same
plan. Every convenience known
to modern school architecture is
there.
It is the school that was built
to relieve the congestion in the
Fraser street school, and the Frai
scr is one of tilt* schools where
they have to use those basement-
ellar-rooins because they haven’t
