bility of Sharing in an Immense
English Fortune.

Atlanta, March 23.-The Constitution to-
morrow will say:
''It is probable that Clarence E. Moore,
his sister, Mrs. Lollie Belle Wylie, and
his mother, Mrs. Augusta Moore, all res
idents of Atlanta, are heirs to a portion
of fortune of $149,O 200.
"A few days ago Mrs. Wylie saw In a
Chicago paper an article stating that
Frank Moore of Watseka, ILL.,, had fallen
heir to a part of an English fortune of
$l49 100000. In the article was mentioned
the name of Harris who was also an
heir to the same fortune.
THE estate had been left by an ances-
tor named Moore, from whom the Atlanta
Moores were descended. III
Clarence Moores great-great-great-
grandfather was James Moore who was
the second colonial governor Of
South Carolina. He had a SOM James,
and this son had two sons, James and
William. The son, James, was Clarence
Moore's great-grandfather. John W.
Moore, son of James Moore, was the
grandfather of the Atlanta MooreSs
William Moore married a Miss FIarris
and their daughter married her first
cousin, Clarence Moore's grandfather 1t
was in this way that Harris name got
into the family" ~ =

COLD DEAL FOR MRS. NATION.
Only the Barkeeper Insisted on
Giving Her n Hearing-Had to
Give 1t Up at AtchisOn

Atchison, Kans., March 2S,-Mrs. Nation
met with a very cool reception here this
evening She attempted to address a large
crowd in the barroom of the Bryan Ho-
tel, when she was hooted repeatedly by
the mob. The bartender mounted the bar
three times in an effort to restore order
and to secure for Mrs. Nation a respect
full hearing. Mrs. Nations famous nerve
was on the point of deserving her, as
there seemed to be no one who was n
sympathy with her. After trying to talk
for some time she gave it up and in the
custody of two policemen she went out
on the street. There she attempted to en-
ter another joint, but was stopped by the
policemen with the remark that she had
better go to her headquarters before any
further trouble should ensue. She took
this advice and was taken in a buggy by
Che police and removed from the mob.

Macon, Ga, March 23.-Dupont Query
said tonight, when asked about the ar
ticle in the Atlanta Journal saying he
had practically consented to run for
Governor and had been induced by pro-
hibitionists to do so:
II am in most hearty and determined
accord with those of my fellow-oitizens
who are not content with present political
condition in Georgia, and hope in our
next primary to be active among those
who are determined to submet to them
no longer.
Il have never been a candidate for any
office on my own motion and have never
troubled others or been troubled myself
with officials aspirations, but there are at
least possible conditions upon which
would become candidate for the nomi-
nation for the ONCE of Governor at the
instance of others, and should these con-
ditions arise, 1 will very promptly and
frankly announce my determination and
my platform and make the most vigorous
campaign of which 1 am capable. But
the time has not arrived and may never

TO KEEP cows OFF, STREETS.
Wnycross Alderman Desires Legis-
IatiOn to This Effect.

Waycross, Ga, March PA resolution
was introduced in the meeting of the City
Council last night by Alderman C. E. Muir
ply, asking that our representative in
troduce a bill in the next Legislature
amending the city charter so that COWS
can be kept off the streets of Waycross.
In discussing the measure, Mr.. Murphy
stated that this should have been done at
the time the hog law was passed. His
idea is not to force cattle outside the cor
porate limits of the city, but to place GER
tain restrictions on their running at
large. The limits will be placed at say
three-quarters of a mile in all directions
from the waterworks standpipe. When
any kind of stock is found running loose
inside these limits ii will be impounded.
A bill will be drawn up amending the
charter, and after proper notice is given
by publication in a newspaper OF general
circulation in the county, will be intro
duced In the Legislature.

Louisville, March 23.-The Courier-Jour-

Another rumor is current of the Absorb
ton of the Seaboard Air Line by the
Louisville and Nashville Railroad. For
the first time since these stories have
been afloat there seems to be some ground
for the rumor. A few days ago there
was a conference between Milton H
Smith, president of the Louisville and
Nashville and Y Vandenburg, first vice
president of the Louisville and Nashville
and Y, e. McBee, general manager of
the Seaboard Air Line. The conference
was held at the office of Mr. Smith, and
while no information concerning it has
been given out those who know of the
conference, are inclined to the belief that
Mr.. McBee was called here to make Ger,
tain statements regarding the business
of the road.
