ments may be submitted to the people

SUFFRAGE IN TEARS.
S. c. A. - by Bulla, to propose to
the people of the State an amendment
to Section l. of Article II, of the Con-
stitution, in relation to the right of
suffrage, was taken up.
Bert stated that the amendment was
the old question of woman's suffrage
over again.
Dickinson said the Assembly had re-
fused to adopt an identical amendment
the day before, and he saw little use
of the Senate consuming time in its
consideration.
MorehOuSe suggested that it be
adopted anyway, and demanded the
previous question. Votes enough to
adopt the resolution were not available
and a call of the Senate was ordered by
vote of 20 to II. The amendment
was finally lost by a vote of - to T.
Boyce changed his vote and gave no
tice of a motion to reconsider.
Throughout the entire morning SEES
sion the Senate was entirely successful
in killing time, which seemed to be the
only point aimed at.

The Senate got down to business i'm
mediately after the invocation yester-
day morning.

ing 1925 IS to pay the deficiency in the

ROADS AND HIGHWAYS.

A. B. $50, by Bridgeford, to create a
department of highways, to define it's
duties and powers, to provide for the
appointment Of officers and employees
thereof, and to provide for the compen-
sation Of said officers and employees,
and for the additional expenses of said
department, and to make an appro-
priation therefor, for the remainder of
OF the fortyeighth fiscal year, was
taken up.
Dickinson explained its provisions at
some length, and urged that the future
prosperity of the State demanded the
assage, not only of the bill under con-
sideration, but also the three compan-
ion bills which followed on file.
Bulla, Gleaves and several others
also spoke in favor of the bill, and
Braunhart opposed it, contending that
its passage meant $4,000 additional
tax upon San Francisco for which
there would be no return. He thought
the measure was vicious.
Smith also opposed the passage of the
bill, and the three companion bills. He
was crank on good roads, he said,
second to none in the State, if Editor
Woodson of the 'Kecord-Union" were
excepted, and had written and talked
god roads early and late. But the
fear Of being called an enemy to good
roads could not prevent him from op-
posing measures unsuited to the State,
regardless Of their success in smaller
and richer commemorative.
Stratton offered an amendment pro-
Viding that at the end of two years
the positions of two of the commission
ers should become vacant, and the bus
mess devolve upon one commissioner
only.
The amendment, after much argu-
ment, pro and con, was adopted.
Dickinson offered a further amend
ment which was also adopted, prOvid-
ing that the three commissioners shall
organize by electing a President, and
for the adoption of an official seal for
the department.
No further amendments being pro-
posed the bill was ordered to print,
the remaining three highway bills be-
ing passed on the file to retain their
places.
THIRD READING.
S. r. 16G, by Morehouse, relating to
life, health, accident and annuity or
endowment insurance on the assess
ment plan, was amended by special
committee and ordered to print.
S. 3. 416, by Gleaves, relating to pi-
lots, pilot commissioners and pilotage,
was taken up. Gleaves offered a sub
stitute which gave cause for a long
debate between the author and Dick
insOn. The substitute was lost and
Dickinson moved the bill be denied a
third reading.
Gleaves, however took occasion to
withdraw it. and the long wrangle over
the pilot bill was at an end

Why Attempt to Cure

Catarrh by the use of so-called blood
remedies? That catarrh is not caused
by blood troubles is self-evident when
you reflect that attacks are always due
to sudden climatic changes or expos
ure, and occur most frequently during
the winter and spring, though the blood
is as pure then as in summer or fall.
A remedy which quickly relieves and
cures the catarrhal attacks has been
found in Ely's Cream Balm.

MODERN CHICKEN COOPS.
The once Familiar Inths Have Given WAY to

Men whose memories go back say forty years
will remember that In those days when a man
wanted to build u chicken coop he bought a bun

mighty few lath chicken coops built nowadays.
Even tho smallest chicken raiser. who keeps n
few in his back yard, makes his coop, or run

shelter, IL made OF boards. often of two thick
ncssos. and with tnrred paper between. for bet
ter protection from the weather, ana with open
ings at the bottom and under the projecting roof
for ventilation.
Lnths were cheap, poultry netting Is still
cheaper. II is made OF steel wiro galvanized In
various widths and in various sizes of mesh.

a Man Whom He Took Prisoner In lsoa
Wants His Address.

ATLANTA. Ca. Aug. 14.-In tho battle Of
Charlottesville n brave but cautious Confed-
crate soldier lay down behind "A log near tho
Federal works to protect himself from tho en-
cmy's bullets. He shot so busily at the Union
men that no did not notice tho retreat of his
command. When he found that the Confcd-
crates had fallen back he and six Others were
alone in front of tho cnemy's lines, and, know
ing that II was certain death to attempt to re-
Join the Confederate army, he held up on his
ramrod his wooden canteen as a token OF sur
render. The Fedcrals ordered him to lay down
his gun and como over their works. which he
and his comrades did at once.
Hardly had he climbed over the works when
an officer demanded his wooden c%antccn. which
he handed over. He was then hurried Off to tho
rear. He nevcr again saw the officer who took
his ~cantccn, upon which WAS cut his name. J. c.
Bailey, and the number OF the regiment to which
he belonged, tho Sixteenth Georgia. After
keeping the old cantccn for twenty years or
longer the officer decided to return It to the man
from whom II was taken and advertised for him
through an Atlanta newspaper. After finding
out whore Bailey was he wrote, asking him to
meet him in Atlanta and take tho old cantecn.
Blu the old soldier was financially unable to 40
