HAYWARD’S MENA6E OF GATS, DOGS, HENS The genial Philip Hayward today re ceived a shipment that breaks all records of its kind in-so-far as the records of the local freight and ex press offices show. Phil, and everybody who knows him loves to call him Phil, got in a crate of Angora cats, a crate of English bull pups, also a crate of rare Orph ington chickens. No sooner had they reached the motion picture house, (you know Phil owns the Dalton Picture show) than he sent out runners, mes sengers, valets de chamber, special detectives and gendarm to gather up Romeo Freer, Watt Bryant, Bert Tyler, Jack McKnight'and Dave Alp er to come at once. They came in stanter. The newly arrived canines, felines and poultry were petted, cod dled and fed to their hearts’ content. They are the best specimens of their fellows and will be given a special booth at the county fair in October. Go down and see Phil and his menage. MRS.

E. church, were given a start Sunday morning when there suddenly appeared from apparently nowhere the visiaon of a fiery-eyed wo man clad in clinging robes of white adorned with golden spangles that glittered in the morning light. Dr. Tomkins was in the midst of a sermon when the apparition stopped him and striking a dramatic posture in the center isle the woman exclaim ed : “I have been sent to seek the lost sheep. There are wolves here in sheep clothing.” Up the aisle she stalked to the al tar, her flowing gown and peculiar headgear adding to the striking pic ture. Her feet were clad in golden colored slippers. “I have been sent and will speak. The lost sheep must be found,” she cried. Patrolman Bunting, summoned by an usher, went to the woman and told her she must leave the church. “Behold I have found my sheep!” she cried, throwing her arms around the policeman’s neck. She was gently taken out. Mr. J. N. Parsons, a well known young man and son of Rev. N. A. Par sons, has associated himself with Mr. S. E.

A CORRECT ACCOUNT OF SIMMONS DEATH Correct reports of the death of James Simmons, who is alleged to have been overcome by noxious gases while cleaning a well up near Grove Level Monday, were this morning given The Argus. Messrs. John H. Brch, Marion Mas sengale and Joshua Garratt were pre sent at the time and they say there was no water in the well but Simmons had been let down (by them to place a stick of dynamite. Simmons soon called to them to draw him up on ac count of the gases and as they were pulling him up and had gotten him about half way, they felt his weight giving away and in a moment knew he had fallen. It appears that Sim mons must have been so overcome from asphyxiation at the moment he was no longer able to hold on to the rope, having at the same time a shovel in his hand, and fell, his head strik ing violently the rocks at the bot tom. MR. REUBEN J. KEITH WAS A VISITOR IN TOWN TODAY You argue your own ignorance if you don’t know Rube Keith. Certainly you have traveled but lit tle if you have never been in the Un ion passenger depot at Chattanooga, for that is where he is the autocrat of baggage smashing. His official en titlement is that of Union depot bag t.gage agent. * " Mr. Keith was for a long time a Daltonian and even now owns a good farm out a few miles in the country. He always comes here, with his fam ily, and spends his vacation. Mr. Keith was in years gone by (we won’t say how many), leader of the Dalton cornet band and orchestra, in which were Will N. Harben, F. T. Reynolds, (bass drummer), Ray Knight, Gus Sel vidge, John Miller, John Hill, Cooper Holtzclaw, Ed Emmons and other men who are now prominent in the busi ness and professional life of the South. Wasn’t Interested. Gov. Tener, of Pennsylvania, says the Cosmopolitan, is an inveterate smoker and choice as to his selection of cigars. Lighting a Havana recent ly he said: “The Londoners are indifferent about their tobacco—indifferent and blase, like an omnibus conductor I saw in Oxford street. “You know the London omnibus? It is a double-decker. If you sit on top you must go up and down by a very steep stairway. “Well, this blase conductor pulled up his bus at Regent circus, and the ladies bound for Peter Robinson’s quickly got out. But one fat lady, who had been sitting on top, came down the steep and winding stairs very slow ly. Her skirt flapped around her ankles and at every step she stopped and thrust it carefully down. The conductor waited with a bored expres sion with his hand on the bell rope; but he lost patience when the fat lady stopped for the fifth or sixth time to thrust down her billowing skirts, and he burst out angrily: “Now, then lady hurry up can’t you. Figgers ain’t no treat to me. ’ $40,000 IS ASKED WITH WHICH TO PAY PENSIONS In orde rthat he may pay 1911 pen sions to 660 Confederate veterans whose claims have been approved since the 1911 rolls were prepared, Pension Commissioner J. W. Lindsey has requested the general assembly to make an additional appropriation of $40,000 to his department this y ear - j 17 ONE DOLLAR A YEAB SOLACING OIL POURED ON EIRE DEPI. CHIEF PERRY AND HIS LADDIES WANTED TO QUIT JOBS. A RESOLUTION TO COUNCIL PASSED An Earnest Meeting Held Last Night —Bull Dogs and Lemons Discussed. « Chief Will Perry and the whole of the fire department threatened to re sign at its called meeting last night. In fact they did and the resigna tions would have stuck but for the pouring of oil on the troubled waters by Mr. Frank Manly and others. Many of the gallant laddies were up in arms, so to speak, and they indulg ed some talk straight from the shoul der; each speech was liberally punc tured with strong approval by the other members present. The action of the city council Mon day night in granting a permit to Mc- Knight and Fallis for building a “fire trap,” as the speakers denounced the proposed ironclad sheds to be erected on the lot recently occupied by some sheds and a blacksmith shop which were tfurned a few days ago. After each one w* spoke had given his opinion of the council’s action the affair was more ealmly gone into and the result is that a resolution was pre pared memoralizing the mayor and council to recind its action and the resolution asks that a fire warden be appointed to have authority, with the aid of the chief and a member of the council, to pass on all applications for buildings and to condemn the present so-called fire traps. This resolution met the entire ap proval of those present and a com mittee composed of Messrs. Frank Manly, Frank Mitchell and J. L. Buch anan will wait on the mayor today and ask that he call a meeting of the council and take action. It is claimed by the department that the charter of the city clearly gives council the right for a fire warden. The decisions of the supreme court were cited to show that the character of buildings proposed by McKnight and Fallis is not a fire-proof one. It was further shown that the city of Atlanta does not allow them nor any other house with a tar or gravel roof within her fire limits. The Dalton fire ordinances were quoted and they are interpreted by the boys to also prohibit these sort of structures with in the prescribed fire limits. Chief Perry in his speech claimed to have been handed a lemon by Ai derman Mann and he (Perry) was not going to stand for it and thought best under the circumstances to get out. Other members offered their resignations to the department. In offering his quota to the subject matter Mr. Joe Buchanan said: “Sometimes it does a bull dog good to have a hound get after him—it generally helps the bull dog.” In discussing the alleged attitude of Aiderman Mann one of the speak ers said that he was surprised at the action of that member of the coun cil for his reputation had been a stickler for maintaining strictly the ordinances of the city, and as he was a good lawyer he should have been bet ter acquainted with the laws. The - fire hoys will hold on to their jobs for a short while longer and the con census of opinion is that as soon as Mayor Trammell can get his members together the whole matter will be ami cably adjusted. ~
