WEDNESDAY. MARCH 29. Slaton Goes After City in Behalf of the State Were Cutting the States’ Prop erty; Stated That He Would Gall Out Militia. Atlanta, Ga.— Qov#rnor John M. Sla ton. moat .jmaceable and diplomatic of Oaorr'ans, became warlike yesterday ■Maraoon. On comlna out of the mnn ■ten he noticed thnt n force of city employes wan busily pnaiißcd In cut ting a big strip off the front of the mansion lawn. The fence was down, and two or three trees as well ub a considerable strip of grass were about to be sacrificed to the widening of Peachtree's "Bottle Neck." It took the governor and command er ln-chlef of Georgia's army and navy about thirty seconds to reach a tele phone and get the city attorney on the other end of It. “If the city of Atlanta don’t get off the state of Georgia's property mighty quick, I’m going to order out the stale mUltia and have somebody Jailed," he announced with firmness. Then he sent the same message to the city hall and In less time than It takes to tell It, the work of cutting the mansion lawn was stopped. An amicable Investigation followed, with the result, apparently, that the city has got a right, expressly given by the legislature, to pare off part of the front .lawn of the mansion, but that the city was In error In not submit ting the plans to the governor and getting his approval first. It seems that the legislature, look ing forward toward Just such Improve ment of Peachtree as Is now under way, passed a special resolution au thorizing the city to cut away not more than twenty feet from the lawu of the mansion, but providing that plans must first be submitted to the governor for approval. Following the consultation a set of plans were quickly drawn up at the city hall and sent by special personal messenger to Governor Slaton, with formal request for his permission and O. K. It was reported later that the talk about calling out the militia was not intended to be taken seriously. Gov ernor Slaton said that the reports making much of It in an Atlanta paper were "silly.” MR. BARRON CARTER DIED TUESDAY IN SAVANNAH Death Felt in Augusta, Where He Was Widely Known and Connected.

A doctor writes: "I have been using Postum for the last seven or eight years, and .hlnk it has had a good deal to do with my looking younger than 65 years of age. "I recommended it to all my patients, and those who have been using it have only praises for its taste and its good effects on their nervous systems; like me they have given up tea and coffee altogether.” Postum Is a pure food-drink made of wheat and a small pro portion of molasses —roasted and skilfully blended. It Is abso lutely free from the coffee drugs, caffeine and tannin.—common causes oT heart, stomach, liver, kidney and nerve disturbance. Some people marvel at the benefits from leaving off coffee and using Postum. but there is nothing marvelous about It —only com mon sense. i Postum now comes In two forms: Regular Postum—must be boiled. 15c and 26c i kgs Instant Postum —a soluble powder, required no boiling. A spoonful stirred in a cup of hot water makes a delicious bever age instantly. 30c and 50c tins.
