AMERICANS HELD IN AWE.
Believed by Martinique Natives to
Bear Charmed Lives.

The New York Times of TODAY saws:
Louis H. Ayme, United States consul at
Guadeloupe, who represented this country
at Fort de France. Martinique, during the
period following the destruction of St
Pierre. arrived yesterday from San
Juan on the Red D line steamship Caracas.
He was accompanied by Capt. Yates Ster-
ling, commandant of the naval station at San
Juan Both went to the Holland House
Consul Ayme praised the attitude of
fund and supplies donated by the United
States government. and it has been said
that he criticised severely the manner in
which the supplies We're handled by the
Martinique authorities. When asked about
these rumors yesterday the consul would
not commit himself.
Il have come up, said he, ito make my
report to the government, and until l do
that | will not say anything. Moreover,
my duty was only to deliver the supplies
to the proper authorities and as soon as 1
dld that l closed my eyes to everything
that took place"
Consul Ayme praised the attitude of the
Inhabitants of Guadeloupe toward the suf-
erers Their donation of S11 600, he said,
was out of proportion to their means. and
they were helping many of the refugees
from the Inflated island
Speaking of present conditions in Marti-
nique he said:
THE inhabitants are almost panic
stricken, and everybody who Is able is
getting away from the island. Just before
l. left an old native of Fort de France was
telling me of peculiar superstition held
by the natives of Martinique In regard to
the volcano and the Americans They
think that the Americans bear a charmed
life, and to this they attribute the immunity
of kavanaugh and others who climbed al
most to Pelee's crater. They feel too, that
so long as the Americans remain on the
hut 90
away they believe that the volcano will
destroy the whole island"

Be the Cause

The steady advance In both Washington
Gas and Capital Traction stock on the
local stock exchange has been the feature
OF the market for the past ten days Gas
stock is now quoted at about IS and CAPITAL
Traction at 123. The usual explanation
given on the street of such figures for Sc
curities that pay, respectively. 4 per cent on
80 and per cent on 100 is that an extra
dividend is to be paid to the stockholders of
the gas company.
According to the same authority a por-
ton of the money that is to be received by
the Traction company from the sale of the
power house site for the proposed municipal
building is to be distributed to the stock
hooters In the form of an extra dividend. 1t

LAWYERS AND PREACHERS.

To Meet on the Emory College Grid
iron ON Thanksgiving.
Emory College. oxford. Ga, Nov. 16.
For some time past it has been a
question as to how enough money could
be raised to have the new athletic field
which has just been completed, inclos
ed by a large fence and a grand stand
erected. A solution to the question was
reached yesterday morning just be-
fore chapel exercises. On the large
chapel oak which stands Immediately
in front of the chapel door, was posted
in large black letters challenge from
the law class to the divinity class.
The game will doubtless be sched-
uled for Thanksgiving Day, as large
crowds from Covington, Conyers, So
cial Circle and other neighboring
towns always attend the Thanksiv-
ing games. A unique part of this game
will be the nomenclature of the differ
ent players and the places that they
will play. For the lawyers, the differ
ent positions on the team will be NAM
ed after eleven judges of the Supreme
Court, and the plays will be called ac-
cordingly. Likewise the preachers will
have the eleven positions named after
the sons of Jacob. The gate receipts
will go towards finishing paying for
the work that has already been done
on the field, and also for the fence and
grand stand, which will be erected for
this occasion.

Dublin, Ga, Nov 16.-In just a few
years property in Dublin has enhanced
in value nearly 1000 per cent. Some
years ago the city authorities purchas-
ed three acres of land as a site for the
public school building. When the build
ing was burned the property was
abandoned for school purposes and the
new school building was erected nearer
the center of the city. Yesterday the
three acres were sold at auction. The
city paid SIPS per acre for the property
and sold the land yesterday for more
than $1,000 per acre, the three acres
