NOTHING TO WEAR.
("B. L. T.,’’ the versatile author of
the Chicago Tribune’s “Line o’ Type or
Two” column, is responsible for the
following parody of "Nothing to
Wear,’’ the oft-quoted poem by Wil
liam Allen Butler, the American law
er-poet, who died about twelve years
ago.)
Miss Flora McFlimsy of Michigan
Bout
in spite of hot weather, is perfectly
cool.
She has it all over her namesake the
fair
Miss Flora McFlimsy of Madison
Sqviare,
Who, ages ago,
As most of you know,
Lamented the fact that she had "noth
ing to wear.”
Miss Flora of old bought her dry
goods ini Paris;
She shipped V(you recall) with her
friend, Mrs. Harris.
Her garments were many, and costly
and rare,
And yet she complained she had noth
ing to wear.
But Flora McFlimsy of Boulevard
Mich.,
Dispenses with ev’ry superfluous
stitch,
And clad in a single diaphonous gown,
Parades in the sunlight, the joy of the
town.
"And if I show through,
What harm does it do?”
Says Flora McFlimsy, "I leave it to
you.”
Why, none whatsoever, we beg to re
ply.
You are all to the good to our ciritical
eye.
Proceed, Miss McKlimsy, as far as you
wish;
Parade in the sunlight on Boulevard
Jf'ch.,
And It if it please you, your vanish
ing dress
Grow fine by degress and delightfully
less,
Until like the dame
Of evergreen fame,
You really have nothing whatever to
wear.
Excepting a hank of remarkable hair.
And should you appear as Lady Godiva
Well stand on the corner and hand
you a “Viva!”

A BEAUTIFUL VOICE.
Mr. Thomas Brittingham, Jr., has
been the recipient of all manner of
compliments since the commencement
exercises at Sacred Heart College, for
not only did he distinguish himself
in the elocutionary contest but he sur
prised the public by the rare beauty
of his fine baritone voice, singing
“Good-bye, Little Girl of My Dreams”
in a manner that completely charmed
his large audience. While Mr. Brit
tingham’s voice is one of great beauty,
purity and compass, and his every note
rings true, it is a most remarkable
fact that he has never taken a vocal
lesson and his voice is absolutely un
trained. Those who had the pleasure
of hearing him are expecting gTeat
things of him in the future.

NEGRO WORKMAN HIT
BY FALLING BRICK
Given Severe Blow on the Head
While Standing Near Chron
icle Building This Morning.
Sim Thomas, a negro employed as
a laborer on the Chronicle Building,
while standing near the building at
11 o’clock today, was struck on the
head by a falling brick. The blow,
while rendering the workman only
bal funconscious, seemed severe
enough to cause death, owing to the
depth of the dent made on the right
side of the negro's skull.
A small crowd quickly gathered
and the negro was stretched out at
full length in front of the offices of
ihe Western Union Telegraph Com
pany. Efforts were immediately
made to get the ambulance from the
Lamar Hospital or the police auto
patrol to take the wounded man to
where he could be given the neces
sary medical attention.
It is understood that neither could
be secured and it is stated that toe
negro lay suffering on the hot side
walk for half an hour before he was
removed to the hospital, and then it
was only through the kindness of a
passing automobilist.
The brick that, struck the workman
was one of three or four which fell
from the scaffold eight floors above
the street and it had gained consid
erable velocity through the distance
of some hundred feet through which
it had traveled.
This afternoon it was stated at the
Umar Hospital that the negro was
still alive.
ICE USED IN Y.M.C.A.
SWIMMING POOL TODAY
Sport is the Most Novel
Ever Experienced in Augusta.
Weather Man Caused it All.
A novel idea, originated by General
Secretary Walter M. Hunter, of the
local Y. M. C. A., became a reality this
afternoon when the members of the
Y. M. C. A. bathed in "Ice water.”
Four one-hundred-pound chunks of
Ire were thrown Into the association’s
large swimtmng pool. Just to "pool
things off a hit.” The 50,000 gallons
of water at this season of the year Is
of a temperature usually about that of
the hydrant, and while the Ice in the
pool came in advantageously on a day
like today, the mercury well above 100,
the wates was not “Ice water” by any
means. The temperature of the pool
was lowered probably only a few de
grees.
The Y. M. G. A. pool Is an exceed
ingly popular spot with the men and
hoys of the association of all ages. There
are regular hours for the hove to “go
ln,” and the men are permitted to rome
at any time except during the boys’
hout-s. It’s a great place.

JUDGE SHEPPARD
ON G. & f. CASE
.
Judge H. C. Roney and Mr. W.
H. Barrfctt, Representing En- i
gineers and Firemen and G.
F. R’y., Respectively, Back
From Valdosta, Where Arbi
tration Appeal Was Argued.
Judge FT* C. Roney, counsel for the
engineers and firemen, and Mr. Wiji.
H. Barrett, general counsel of the
Georgia and Florida Railway, have re
turned from Valdosta, where there was
a hearing before Judge \V. P. Shep
pard. of the United ‘States court tor
the southern district of Florida, who
was sitting for Judge Etnory Speer on
the appeal of the railgpad from the
decision of the arbitration board which
granted an increase, of about ten per
cent to the engineers and firemen.
The railroad has taken exception to
the findings and appealed the case be
cause the arbitrators did not take into
consideration the financial condition
of the road. The road's attorney con
tended that it was practically a con
fiscation of property to force the road
to pay more wages to the men when
it was not earning oven enough to pay
the interest on its bonds.
The attorney for the engineers and
firemen claimed that the rule laid
down by Judge Peele at the arbitra
tion, that is, that the wages of the
men should be practically the same as
obtained for other similar work in the
same territory, should govern.
Judge Sheppard took the ease under
-advisement. It will eventually be de
cided by the United States supreme
court and is the first tost to be mado

BIBLE READING
Co-operation By Protestant,
Catholic and Jew is Indica
tion of Growing Spirit of
Toleration and Regard.
Chicago.—“ Co-operation by Protest
ant. Catholic and Jew in the mutter
if Bible reading in the public schools
is an indication of the growing spirit
of the brotherly regard and tolera
tion,” said Marion Lawrance, secre
tary of the International Sunday
School Association, at today’s session
of the fourteenth triennial convention
here. “This is a great step forward
in the study and recognition of the

in public of those portions of the
Bible agreed upon by all is the aim
of such co-operation.”
A crucial problem before the pres
ent conference is the method to be
adapted in advancing Sunday school
work, according to Mr. Lawrance.
The association has had under con
sideration for more than two years a
plan for a nation-wide campaign, but
there is Tear that the time is not op
portune for a campaign with a body
