COURT OF APPEALS.
First Session of Important Tribunal
Held in Atlanta.
Atlanta, Oct. 7. —Under a recent act
of congress providing for the holding
of one session annually in Atlanta of
the United States circuit court of ap
peals for the fifth judicial circuit,
that tribunal was yesterday morn
ing convened in this city for the
first time. The act stipulates that
the annual session in Atlanta is to be
convened on the first Monday in Oc
tober of each year.
The circuit court of appeals is an
intermediate court between the cir
cuit and district courts of the United
States supreme court, and, with the
exception of the Atlanta session, in
this circuit, sits in New Orleans. In
/■Mil eases, involving small amounts
[Wyioney, and in misdemeanor cases,
*/“ decision of this court is final,
while in other cases an appeal may
be taken from this court. Cases in
volving constitutional questions are
appealed direct to the supreme court
of appeals.
The court is composed of Don A.
Pardee, senior justice; Judge A. P.
MeCormick, of Dallas, Texas, and
Judge D. D. Shelby, of Huntsville,
Ala., associate justices. Charles H.
Lednum, of New Orleans, is clerk of
the court, and will attend to its bus
iness both in Atlanta and New Or
leans. The justices, while on the
bench wear black judicial gowns, and
present an imposing appearance.
Telephone for Ellijay?
Mr. W. J. Owenby, of the Blue
dge Telephone Co., was in the city
Monday perfecting arrangements for
extending the Blue Ridge telephone
to Ellijay. They already have con
nection with Knoxville, and the Ma
rietta Telephone Co. proposes to
extend their line from Canton to Elli-
J a .v. This will give us a connection
b - v telephone to Knoxville and At
lanta and all intermediate points,
which will be a great convenience to
°ur business men. We welcome the
enterprise to our town. —Ellijay

WHERE WOMEN RULE.
Lords of Creation are Excluded From
This Exhibition.
New York, Oct. 6. —Under the aus
pices of the Professional Woman’s
League the first woman’s exibition
will open tonight in Madison Square
Garden. The lord of creation may
look but not touch. For the time he
will be relegated to the rear and
woman will rule. Women as police,
women as carriage callers, women as
ushers, women as ticket punchers,
women as bankers, women as news
boys selling women’s newspapers,
will be a feature. About 3,500 women
will take part in the affair, which has
been in course of preparation for sev
eral months.
Although patterned after the wo
man’s exhibition held in Earl’s court,
London, two years ago, its scope is
much wider.
All nations will be represented and
the work of woman’s hands in all
sections of the globe will be shown.
Leaves for Knoxville.
I
Miss Alya O’Neill leaves Saturday
for Knoxville, where she will open a
school of elocution and physical cul
ture. Miss O’Neill’s coming has been
heralded in that city, as is evidenced
by the following paragraphs, clipped
from the Knoxville dailies:
“Miss Alya O’Neill, of Dalton, Ga.,
will soon be in the city for the pur
pose of opening a school of elocution.
She is most Highly recommended,
being well known throughout the
south.”
“Friends of Miss Alya O’Neill, of
Dalton, Ga., who is an elocutionist
graduated from Boston, will be glad
to welcome her to Knoxville to spend
the winter.”
Besides elocutionary talents rare
indeed, Miss O'Neill is the possessor
of a charming presence and gracious
womanliness which will unquestion
ably insure for her a cordial welcome
into Knoxville's cultured circles.
The ladies of the First Presby
terian church will serve light refresh
ments at the manse next Thursday,
October 16, from 4to 10 o’clock; price
15 cents. A cordial invitation is ex
tended to all.

picnic at the home of of Mrs. Jos.

being also their regular time for

Ed Leonard was painfully injured
Wednesday afternoon while riding
home on his bicycle. When he ar
rived at the lower railroad crossing,
Will Crawford was approaching from
the opposite direction in his laundry
wagon. Neither saw the other as
both were watching a coming train
and they ran into each other. The
wheel was completely demolished
and the wagon passed over Ed’s
body. He was taken home uncon
scious, but is all right again now.
There never was a paper in any lo
cality that gave all the news, says
an exchange. It is often that some
persons come or go that the editor
does not see. It happens that a fam
ily is missed several times. They i
get the impression that the paper I
does not mention them or has a,
grudge against them. The paper has
no ill feeling, no enmity against any- !
one. Most people take the local pa- |
per. Don’t be afraid to give the ,
editor news of interest. Perhaps you '
think the paper has shown partiality, I
but try and see if it does not treat'
you right if you give it a chance.

An Old-Young Author.
The latest picture of Will N. Har
ben sent out by his publishers shows
him as a white-haired veteran of 70
or thereabouts. 1 oough he is in the
prime of life, his hair is really as
white as the cotton of his native
fields. Rumor has it that the won
derful change took place at the time
when he imagined bis talent lay in
the direction of poetry —took place
in one night, while he was trying to
compose a sonnet that would please
Mr Gilder. When Mr. Gilder read
the sonnet he advised Harben to dye
bis hair and write a novel. —F. L. S..

DISCOVERIES IN EGYPT
Papyri Dating Century Before Christ
Found in That Country.
Berkeley, Cal., Oct. 7.—The first
gyptological publications of the Uni
versity of California will be issued
within a few weeks. This will be a
bulky volume, the first of five, con
taining the texts of the wonderful
collections of the papyri found by an
expedition of the University of Cal
ifornia in Egypt.
The ruins of an ancient temple
were discovered on the site of an
ancient tontunis by Dr. Bernard P.
Grenfeil and Dr. A. S. Hunt, who
were excavating at the time for the
University of California. An enor
mous number of mummies of sacred
crocodiles were unearthed. All were
wrapped in papyri dating from the
end of the first century B. C. These
papyri were of most unusual length.
Documents of from one to two hun
dred lines were common. Most of
the longer texts were of an official
character, and full of new informa
tion in regard to the entire history of
Egypt under the latter Ptolomies.
This tontunis collection, which prac
tically in its entirety will be depos
ited in the university at Berkeley,
exceeds in quantity all the papyri
in Greek in all the museums of the
world put together.
