SCHEDULE IS SET FOR TRAINING MEN BsvirnniMt Is Mss Taking Steps To Board The Drafted Men In Camp Against Disease TO VACCINATE ALL SOLDIERS Thsre Will Be Three Vaccination* For Each Man —For Smallpox, For Ty¬ phoid And For Para-Typhoid Atlanta— The vaccination of the national army draft men who have arrived at Camp Gordon is taking place. Col. Conrad HI. Koerper, medical corps sur¬ geon, expects to vaccinate every one of the more than nineteen hundred draft men and anybody else about the camp who needs it. Besides the draft men, the oooks and other men who have not yet been vaccinated will re¬ ceive this attention. There will be three vaccinations for each man; one for smallpox, another for typhoid and a third for para-ty¬ phoid. These vaccinations will make a few of the men sick for about twen¬ ty-four hours, but it is not expected to affect more than five tier cent of the men vaccinated. The first 5 per cent of the Camp Gordon quota of national army men have arrived at the camp. The total is slightly in excess of the number which had been anticipated. About eighteen hundred men had been ex¬ pected, hut the total runs a little more than nineteen hundred men. Major General Swift has issued or¬ ders setting a schedule of training for the draft army men for the month of September. The schedule has gone into effect. Asks For Notice Of Soldiers’ Meals Although the government; appreci¬ ates offerings of fried chicken and other dainties given to soldiers en route to cantonments, it would ap¬ preciate such offerings more if peo¬ ple would notify officials when and where such meals are to be supplied. This is the text, of a telegram from Provost Marshal General Crowder re¬ ceived by Governor Dorsey. The tel¬ egram is as follows; “To insure meals at. stations en route the American Railway associa¬ tion is making arrangements for a cer¬ tain specified number of meals at cer¬ tain places. Tile outlay is considerable and means should be .taken fo prevent the loss of these meals through well utfcant and patriotic offers of people along the way to supply meals when such offers are not made so far in ad¬ vance as to obviate the necessity for the railroad companies to supply the nn-als, and where the railroad compa¬ nies have been notified of such ar¬ rangements." State Succeeds In Sea Island Growth The results attained in the growing of sea island cotton at the experi¬ ment station at Valdosta, conducted by tiie Georgia state board of ento¬ mology, have proved if anything bet¬ ter than anticipated, in spite of the activities of the boll weevil. The station had the boll weevil situ tion absolutely under control until the pest came in from neighboring fields. By that time the station had succeed¬ ed in making a good crop, although ex¬ perimenting with as many as twenty four varieties on the station ground--. Some of these varieties yielded at the rate of a tiaie to the acre, while on other plots of one acre each, there has been picked already (100 pounds of lint with several hundred pounds more remaining yet to open. 108 Men Are Exempted The week just past has been for the members of the district exemption board a period of almost ceaseless ac¬ tivity in the way of passing on claims and appeals for exemption from mili¬ tary service tiled by registrants all over north Georgia. Beginning Monday and continuing •through Saturday the board consider¬ ed 482 claims aud appeals Of this number only 108 exemptions were granted, an overwhelming majority of these cases being filed on the grounds of a dependent wife. A small number of appeals on the ground of physical disability were acted on favorably. Slate Appointed Game Commissioner Governor Dorsey announces the ap¬ pointment of Sam J. Slate of Muskogee county to the post of state fish and game commissioner. to succeed Hon. C. S. Arnow, who has held the post for the past two years. Mr. Slate has been a resident of the state of Georgia for the past twenty years, coming here from his native state, Virginia, where he first took an interest in fish and game conserva¬ tion. He has resided in Muscogee county for the past twelve years, and was formerly connected with the Cor¬ bitt Motor company. Billy Sunday Leaders Arrive J. H. Speice, official tabernacle builder for Billy Sunday, together with George G. Dowey. general director of the Sunday organized Bible class work, arrived in Atlanta to prepare the way for the coining of the evangelist in November. The tabernacle will be erected on the old show grounds at Jackson and Bou¬ levard. Work will begin immediately on construction of the building. Mr. Dowey delivered a talk before the Twentieth Century Bible class at the First Baptist church. WAR DEPARTMENT TO IMPROVE ROAD Authorities Planning 75-Foot Highway From Camp Gordon To The City Of Atlanta Atlanta-— The United States government will build a 75-foot road all the way from the DeKalb county line, at the pres¬ ent terminus of the Brookbaven trol¬ ley line to Camp Gordon, thus creating a great military highway direct from Atlanta to the cantonment. Announcement to this effect was made in a telegram from Washington to The Atlanta Constitution. An appropriation of $78,000, it is stated, will be made by the war de¬ partment for the work, and the only condition attached to the government offer is that DeKalb county supply the teams necessary for the work. That the DeKalb authorities will agree to this is assured, since they have al¬ ready promised to raise $2 for every $1 raised in Fulton county for the road construction work. There will be no delay in the actual work since the military authorities at Camp Gordon are anxious that the bad¬ ly-paved highway be reconstructed as quickly as possible, so as to take care of the great volume of traffic that will soon be moving over the road. In fact, it was at the suggestion of the canton¬ ment officers that the war department consented to make the $78,000 appro¬ priation. When the matter of a government appropriation for tlie road work was originally taken up with the war de¬ partment by Congressman William Schley Howard, at the instance of the public safety‘committee of the Atlan¬ ta chamber of commerce, the depart¬ ment announced that it would do its share of whatever work the canton¬ ment .officials considered necessary. In other words, if the construction department at Camp Gordon approved the expenditure it would be made. Probing Service To Camps. The stale railroad commission, an¬ ticipating the possibility of action be¬ ing brought before this board affecting the transportation facilities between the city of Atlanta and Camp Gordon, or between other cities and camps in Georgia, is proceeding with an inves¬ tigation of present and planned trans¬ portation services at each of the three camps located at Atlanta, Macon and Augusta. Chairman C. M. Candler and Judge George Hillyer, as a committee rep¬ resenting the commission, recently made a personal inspection of the fa¬ cilities in course of construction and in operation between Atlanta and Camp Gordon, so as to have them¬ selves fortified with first-hand infor¬ mation should any of the questions of transportation which have been agi¬ tated in Atlanta be brought before it. These members of the commission also conferred with Preston Ark¬ wright, president of the Georgia Rail¬ way and Power company, which is constructing a double-track electric trolley line to the camp, and with H. W. Miller, vfcie president of the South¬ ern railway, which lias been asked by the public safety committee of the At¬ lanta Chamber of Commerce to install a shutlle-lrain service between At¬ lanta and Gamp Gordon. The object of the commission in making these investigations is to arm itself with full information at first hand, in event of any action before it. Goaf Miners Not Reducing Prices That the coat mines, at least those from whom the Georgia retail dealers purchase their supply, have no intern tlon of observing the schedule of prices laid down,by President Wilson, is a charge made by the state bureau of markets, in complaint filed with tiie federal trade commission. Acting under the authority laid down in tiie state law creating the state bureau. Director L. B. Jackson lias forwarded to Chairman W. J. Har¬ ris in Washington, formal complaint, in his letter he makes the direct charge that Hie information lie con¬ veys to the federal commission is based on “positive evidence” in hand by the state bureau, and asks that the federal trade eonSmission immediately take up and properly dispose of the complaint. Georgia's Select Men Enthusiastic From every section of the state come reports of the enthusiastic re¬ sponse of the first 5 per cent quotas from the various counties called for the optional army. Almost every train arriving now is bringing in some of the boys destined for the national ser¬ vice. -• In almost every locality farewell re¬ ceptions and barbecues have been tendered the select men by their home people before they embark on their new career. While alternates have been desig nated to take the place of any of those originally drawn who failed to show up. this precaution has been found necessary, as in practically every case the first draft men have appeared at their exemption board headquarters on time. Negro School Bids Will Be Received Bids for the new negro agricultural, industrial and normal school, Iv provided tor by the legislature, will be received up to October 5. Governor Dorsey announced. Besides donations of buildings or money that may be made, the bidder must offer at least one hundred acres of land. Tlte measure provides that the gov¬ ernor. attorney general and state su¬ perintendent shall constitute a com¬ mittee to receive offers or bids from any citizens or county in the state de¬ siring the institution.

"Ye asked me how long It would take to go to Birmingham!" “Yes,” they said. “Well," said Pat, “it will take ye four hours.” “Why didn’t you tell us that be¬ fore?” they asked. “Weil now,” said Pat, “how could I tell ye until I saw how fast ye could walk first?” Wanted Him Warned.

Apparent¬ ly, however, the chasm of discord has so widened that either M. Kerensky, head qf the provisional government, or General Korniloff, the deposed com¬ mander-in-chief of the army, who is opposing Kerensky and who demands ^almost dictatorial powers, will he en¬ gulfed. At the present moment neither side seems willing to make concessions. Kerensky, at the head of the govern¬ ment in Petrograd, is bending all his energy toward suppression of the tur¬ moil created by Korniloff and his fol¬ lowers, while Korniloff is reported to be approaching Petrograd with troops in order to lay siege to the capital. To prevent such action Kerensky’s ad¬ herents are tearing up the railroad lines and otherwise ate preparing to resist. it is reported that the troops of General Korniloff and the Kerensky forces are already in conflict. While advices received in Loudon are to tiie effect that the Baltic fleet is faithful to the Kerensky regime, other advices say that Commander Denlkine of the southwestern Russian army, sent word ro the premier that be would give his support to Korniloff. Official reports, bwever, are to the effect that Deftikine amt several other generals have been arrested. Korniloff has declared that his re¬ volt against Kerensky is animated by the highest patriotism and a desire to save Russia from a government domi¬ nated by the German general staff. DELIBERATE PLOT CHARGED TO NEGROES TO SLAY WHITES That Is Finding Of Civilian Board Of Inquiry After a Searching Inves. tigation Of The Riot Houston. Texas. —Negro soldiers of the Twenty-fourth United States in¬ fantry had planned a riot of bloodshed among the w hite residents of Houston iwo days before the deadly outbreak, which cost the lives of fifteen Houston Citizens August 23, according to the re¬ port of the civilian board of inquiry, which .reported to the Houston city council. The report also criticised Su¬ perintendent of Police Brook for “his inability to enforce discipline among the police and declares that “he is not qualified for the position he holds." The committee is of the opinion that the riot undoubtedly was precipitated by two arrests tg negroes made by the police, “although sufficient evi¬ dence was presented at the hearing to reveal the fact that a serious disturb¬ ance was intended by some of the negro soldiers before leaving Houston and the arrests referred to simply brought it to a head sooner and per¬ haps intensified thee rimes which fol¬ lowed. President Robbed Bank Of $300,000 Washington.—Comptroller Williams issued a statement asserting investi¬ gation had disclosed that the late J. R. Martindale, president of the Chemical National Bank of New York, who died in July, 1917, was an embezzler and forger to the extent of about three huil dred thousand dollars. The amount was taken, the comptroller announced. from the account of a wealthy depos itor, and the bank has arranged to make good the entire sum. Capital and surplus of the bank were not impaired in the slightest degree. U. S. Nitrate Plant In S.

Several hundred men will be employ¬ ed at the plant at first. That "Great Victory’’ Proves “Mistake” Washington.—A typographical error in transcribing a statement for the press from an official report to the navy department made it appear that six German submarines probably had been sunk off the French coast when they attacked a fleet of merchantmen, including at least one American ves¬ sel. The facts are. so far as known, that one submarine probably was de¬ stroyed and one of the steamers went down. A corrected statement was is¬ sued by Secretaiy Daniels as the error was discovered.
