l, WANT STREETS PAVED.
Ensley Citizens Want Improvements on Ave. H and Twenty-third St,

Ensley, March s.-(Special)--A petition is being circulated among the citizens who have property on Avenue H and Twenty third street to have the streets graded, macadamized and paved on Ave- nue H from Nineteenth to Twenty-sixth streets and Twenty-third street from Avenue I to Avenue C.

GEORCIANS MUST GIVE
 UP THEIR RIFLES
Demand Is Made Upon Governor Ter. reIl for Return of Weapons
 to Government.

Atlanta, March 9.-(Special) "A demand was made upon Governor Terrell today by the chief of the ordnance depart ment United States Army, for the return of the old Springfield rifles which are now in the possession of several military schools of the state, and compliance with 1t will mean that the military schools will be left without arms for drill pur- poses.
 The letter calling for the return or these old arms is signed by Lieut.. Col A. H. Russell of the United States ordnance department, and asks that the guns be in accordance with instructions issued in September. 1904
 According to this letter when new arms, the Krag-Jorgensen, were issued to the state militia 1t was provided fin the act of Congress tkat all fof the old Springfield rifles should be returned to the government ordnance department No exception was made, and there was no provision under which the military schools might be allowed to retain these arms
 The military schools from which these old Springfield rifles are now demanded to be returned, and the number in the possession of each are as follows:
 Rinehart college, at Walesca, 60 guns, callber 50.
 Georgia Military Academy, at College Park 60 guns. caliber 45.
 Marist college Atlanta Ga, 25 guns, caliber 45.
 cornelia normal school. Cornelia, Go. 35 guns. caliber 45.
 University of Georgia, Athens Ga 100 guns, caliber 45
 All of these colleges were supplied with the Springfield rifles by the United States Government through the state There are several military schools in the state, however, such as those at Dahlon- ega. Gordon institute. at Barnesville and one or two others to which arms were issued direct by the United States war department, and no demand has been made for the return of these. These latter schools are responsible for their arms direct to the war department and not through the state.
 If these military schools are compelled to give up their arms before the end of the present term, it will greatly hamper them In their work Tn order to pre- vent this, Governor Terrell has taken the matter up with the war department and has made the specific request that the schools be allowed to retain their arms until the close of their present term.
 Later on the matter will be taken up through Georgia's delegation in Congress with view to securing guns for these schools for drill purposes. These old Springfield rifles practically worth less to the government and when turn ed into the arsenal will be finally con- demned and sold at very small price. This will, doubtless, furnish the oppor- tunity for many schools and colleges to supply themselves with arms at very low cost, but in the meantime unless they can get them from some source they will be deficient in one of their most important features.

 House.

Gadsden March .-(Special)-News of deplorable accident which occurred yesterday near Attalla has just reached this city. Forney Cox, a well-to-do farm CT, lives near Attalla, and last Tuesday he was in the field with his s-year-old son, when for some reason he sent the boy to the house for his gun.

 He told the little fellow to go back home and he resumed his walk, but on again looking back saw his brother and he playfully pointed the gun at the boy and told him if he did not go back home he would shoot him, at the same time pulling the trigger when the gun went off. the entire load of shot and the wad- ding entering the little boys left should CT and breast causing death in a few min- utes. The brother and the parents are grief stricken.

ASK THE OPINION
 OF SUPREME COURT
JOINT CONVENTION IN COLORADO WILL DEFER ACTION UNTIL COURT MAKES RULING ON THE SUBJECT.

Denver. Col, March 9.--The joint execu- tive convention has sought an opinion from the state supreme court on the question whether it has the power to de- clare the office of governor vacant and what the effect of such action would be, and the decision of the Peabody-Adams gubernatorial contest will be deferred un- til the courts answer is received. Sena- tor Alexander a member of the contest committee. was allowed to amend his re- port, which favored the seating of Lieu tenant Governor Macdonald as governor in such a way that if 1t should be now adopted by the joint committee Governor Adams would be legslated out of office. Alexanders amended report declares that there was no legal election for the office of governor held in the state last No- vember, but the resolution directing Lieu tenant Governor Macdonald the legal duly qualified governor of the state" is omitted, and the following Is substituted:
 Resolved, That the action of the joint assembly in declaring Ava Adams elected governor be hereby feselnded and re- voked, and that a vacan9y be declared fin the office of governor"
 Under the constitution the adoption of the Alexander resolution would seem to have the effect of continuing former Gov errfor Peabody in office, his legal sue cessor having not been elected That, however, will be submitted to the su- preme court adjudication before vote is taken on any of the reports of the joint assembly.
 In the meantime the allegations of Sem ator Morgan in regard to bribery will be held in abeyance.

NEGROES HOLD UP
 AND ASSAULT MAN
GEORGE w. HEWITT WAS BADLY BRUISED AND BEATEN BY THREE NEGROES AT AVENUE 3 AND EIGHTEENTH STREET.

George W. Hewitt a young white man, was found in a semi-consciuus condition on Avenue B and Eighteenth street last night about o'clock, and, according to three negroes. who hit him over the head with brass knucks.
 He was taken to the Hillman hospital, where City Physician Whelan attended him. Both of Hewitt's eyes were badly damaged by blows from blunt instru- ments, and Dr. Whelan thinks that the weapons were brass knucks. Hewitt is not in a serious condition.
 Hewitt made a statement to Dr. whelan as follows:
 T had just been paid off and was go- ing home. I was walking up Eighteenth the corner of Avenue B. I never sus- peeted anything until I was right at them, when one of them struck me with some- ing. I had my money which was in bills. clenched in my hand, and I held it wher I fell. In this way the robbers did not succeed in getting it."
 I When picked up and placed in the am bulance Hewitt still had the money. about ss0, clasped in his hand He had a num- Der of bruises about the face and head beside the blows which bruised his eyes. Dr. Whelan thinks that the young man is telling a straight tale. and the condition in which he was found bears out his statement.
