Dies from Injuries Received in
Accident-Anothe Victim
Seriously Injured

F. O. Crowley was arraigned in JUS
tice Roses police court yesterday morn
ing on a coroners warrant charging
him with manslaughter
Crowley was a motorman OF the Los
Angeles Railway company and was
running car No. 544, which ran into the
buggy occupied by Arthur Jacobson
and his father, Lorenz Jacobson, at the
intersection of Eleventh and Alvaradd

coNFEDERATEs IN THE SENATE

Senator Mallory, of Florida, is
candidate to succeed himself. He
has been in the Senate ten years,
and is the wealthiest man in the
Senate from the South. He served
in both the Confederate army and
navy. His colleague, Senator
Taliaferro, was also a Confederate
veteran. Both the Senators from
Alabama are Confederate veterans,
as are those from Mississippi, Vir-
ginia and Kentucky. Both Sem
ators from the latter State, how
ever, have been defeated for
re election. Senator Martin, of
Virginia, saw service as a cadet of
the V. NJ. I. One Senator from
Louisiana was also a Confederate
soldier. The Senators from North
Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee
and Texas were not In the Confed-
crate army. Bacon, of Georgia,
is a Confederate veteran. Twelve
of the present Southern Senators
are Confederate veterans.

TusA OF The TOE Has COVE

In Georgia as, elsewhere, period
of great prosperity has been
enjoyed condition prevailing
throughout the entire country.
Mr.. J. J. Hill, one of the greatest
of the captains of industry
thinks there are signs which
indicate a recession in business
a turning of the tide, so to speak.
He is quoted as saying: "The sails
of prosperity are being reefed.
The year 1907 may be a hard year,
and many thousands of men may
then be out of work. General
policies of retrenchment are under
way. Less money is being spent on
new works. The effect of this
movement is felt especially by the
manufacturing interests in the fall
ing off of orders. The beginning
Of this movement is very evident.
In the opinion of Mr.. Hill it is
well that the contraction or curtail-
ment is gradual, otherwise there
might be a Sudden slumy with
serious result. Already the rail
roads are slowing up in extensions
and improvement on account of the
high cost and the difficulty of
raising the new capital, and this
of itself will have considerable eff
feet upon the industries which fur
nish materials and supplies. For
some time conditions have been
abnormal. The cost of production
has increased. Material is high,
labor is high, or where the price of
labor has not been increased labor
itself is suffering from the
increased cost of living. The
country is overwhelmed with
business, but high tide must be
reached-and after that, the ebb.

Parrot pie is one Of the delicacies
over which visitors to Australia rave.
AS the fruit season opens the parrots
and parrakeets come by thousands, like
locusts, and, settling on the trees, feed
upon the fruit until nothing but the
stones Is left behind. They are shot
while gorging themselves. The flesh,
though very dark, is said to be deli
cious In flavor and almost to taste of
the cherries, peaches and plums on
which the birds have fed. They are
said to be more succulent than pigeons
and altogether superior to the palate.
