IN TIME J-OR WAR TAX
Atlanta, Ga. —Yesterday afternoon’s
session of the city council lasted but
five minutes, though several Important
matters were on hand. Strange to
say, not a member made a kick when
the motion to adjourn was put, and
the council chamber emptied in a
twinkling.
“What's the idee?" asked the cub
reporter, who was not used to coun
cil meetings.
“All the councilmen have free
tickets to the Wild West Show,” ex
plained the Janitor. “Would you mind
movin' out, so I kin lock up. I'm goin'
to see dem hawses my own self."
Whether the free tickets had any
effect on city taxes is not evident, but
it didn't help the show dodge Uncle
Sam. who presented a bill for the new
special war tax on circuses to the
show's management. The show ar
rived Just in time to let Atlanta collect
Shis tax.

and found much relief. After that I
had no pains at all and could do my
housework and shopping the same
as always. For years I have praised

INFLATED BILL
PLAYER MIES
Representatives of Organized
and Federal League Agree on
This Subject—-Haven’t De
clared Peace, Though.
Chicago.—Representatives of organ
ized baseball and the Federal League
have agreed on the subject of Inflated
salaries, even though they are not
yet ready for a general peace procla
mation, according to a statement last
night by Charles Weegliman after a
long session with August Herrmann,
president of the National Commis
sion.
“Club-owners have tired of putting
up outlandish contracts to hold their
stars,” said Weegliman. “Take for
Instance Walter Johnson's latest de
mand I hat lie he paid $20,000 for a
signature on a Federal contract. That
means about S7OO a game.
"The baseball men I have conferred
with are unalterably opposed to the
fancy salaries. The new contracts of
the stars will contain by lower figures
Hud the clubs will cease to number as
many players as last year.”
