In the days gone by Georgia had a

%ratice, habits and customs of an
atire people is very remarkable.

on that point. There is something

A FUNNY CONSPIRACY.
The Bill of Particulars in Hamp,
toms Dark and Dangerous
Deed.

B. Y. Hampton yesterday appeared
h court and pleaded not guilty to each
, one of the four indictments found
against him for conspiracy and
keeping a house of ill-fame" He was
then furnished with copies of the in
dictments for the first time. The fol-
lowing is one of those found against
him for conspiracy" from which it
will be seen that the conSpiring is not
alleged to have been committed against
the Immaculate officials of previously
chaste character" but merely that it
was confederation formed for the pur-
pose of committing crime. that crime
being the keeping of house of ill-fame.
So that should he be found guilty, he
would be virtually punished twice
for the same offense, for de-
Gliding on keeping the house,
and then keeping it. All this
howeVt T, is IL e merest rot, as no one sup
poses any fair minded jury will play
into the hands of the fallen" officials
! to such an extent as to punish him for
detecting crime. The indictment says:
B. Y. Hampton is accused by the Grand
Jury OF this court, by this Indictment,
of the crime of conspiracy. committed

Lydia Thompson's Daughter and a
Dude.

Plump, smooth, jolly Miss Tilbury
doesn't amount to much as an actress
yet, being u novice, but her youth and
comeliness are very compelling to the
adulators of stage femininity. Bou-
quets and notes are sent 10 her by the
noodles, and one evening somewhat
years-worn beau, famous for quarter
of a century as a gallant of the green
room, was struck hard by her agreeable
personality. His social and business
relations with the management were
such that he was able. just after re-
hearsal next day, to be introduced to
the girl. She received him respect
fully but not ardently, and he felt that
he was not making deep impression.
He therefore made some intensely silly
remarks, intended to convey his ad-
miration.
II seem TO have been acquainted
with you for long time, somehow"
he said.
That's natural, SIR" Miss Tilbury
responded, II am wonderfully like my
mother was fifteen years ago. You
were very sweet on her, judging by the
letters you wrote and the Inscriptions
on the back of your photograph that
you gave her. ! was overhauling a
boxful of her trash just before l sailed

They HOnored Him.

As New York drummer entered a
village in West Virginia, by stage line,
a. few days ago, he found the people
greatly excited. A string band was
marching around town, several flags
were flying in the breeze. and it seemed
as if Fourth of July was at hand for
the second time. The drummer finally
inquired the cause of the commotion,
and was answered that one of The mer-
chants had failed.
why, is that Il cause for rejoicing?"
he queried.
You bet! He failed for ST, ,60O."
"Well?"

Try il Just Once for the Cigars.

The latest trick about town is called
the Clock Puzzle. You mention it to
your friend. His curiosity prompts
him to inquire what it is like. You
take out your watch, ask him 10 select
one of the hour figures, then offer TO
bet him the cigars you can tell which
one he selected, the only condition be-
ing that, as you go rambling about the
dial looking for the number, he shall
tell YOU when the number he has in his
mind, added to your count, will make
twenty. For instance, you begin by
pointing your pencil at 8, counting one.
then at 3, counting two. then AT other
numbers selected ut random, counting
each one, until you have counted eight,
when YOU begin al the II and proceed
in the direction op! oSite to that which
the hards travel. Ii your friend has
selected the II lie informs you that
your count (cighD and the hour num-
ber, at which you are then pointing,
added together, make twenty. Ii he
should have selected the IL he stops
you there, as your count (nine) and the
IL makes twenty, and SO on, taking in
all of the hours. 1t is very simple
thing. but it has been good for many 8
