EASTER SUNDAY.

The bright, sunhy, lovely weather
we've had all through March termina-
ted on Easter Sunday very disagree
ably by cold wave and steady rain
almost throughout the day.
All those ladies who had bought their
beautiful Easter hats and dresses were
denied the pleasure of donning them
and they had to put on their winter
clothing. Fires and overcoats were
comfortable. The glories of an antici-
pated warm, sunny Easter were dissi-
pated and disappointment reigned.
Services were held at the churches
however, and large number of people
braved the bad weather and attended
the several houses of worship in the
city
When Monday morning dawned, the
rain had ceased and the sun was shining
but stiff March wind was blowing and
the cold weather still prevailed, the
thermometer registering thirty three
degrees above zero. The fruit, Of
course is not hurt, but was chilled.

The race question for the present is q

Gov. Northern will realize it and stop
an agitation that BODIES no good to any
body Dalton Citizen.
"A closed issue" is it? Well, when
the Legislature meets in June and
Gov. Hoke Smith insists on that body
passing an amendment to the State
Constitution DISTINGUISHING the negro,
as he promised he would do, and the
legislators begin to cuss and discuss
the ''closed ISSUE" then you will think
it an "open question" Then if that
body sends the amendment before the
people to be ratified at the ballot box,
creating more discussion it will appear
that the issue is "not closed" but will
be q source of much inflammatory har-
rangue and bad feeling. The Alabama
Acknowledgement law is what was
promised during the last gubernatorial
campaign, and whether it "bodes no
good" for anybody or not, its "agita-
ton" has to come.

How do you like the town you live
in?
Pretty fair sort OF place, isn't it?

town, wouldn't you?

town, you say? Well, what's the mat
ter with this town? If there's any,
thing wrong, let's all get together and
right it.
All OF US live here, and we ought to
pull together. Nobody living in New
York or Chicago or st. Louis or Allan
ia is going to do any pulling for US.
Ga the contrary, some of those cities
are doing a lot Of pulling from us.
They lot only pull away some OF our
best young men as the boys grow ur,
but they pull away many of our good
American dollars, which ought to be
spent right here, where they would do

chant for it. Suppose all of US trade at
home little more regularly. That
ought to help make this better town.

money at home to build up the town
we'd keep more Of our boys at home.

Wet guard here Friday reports the
daring escape of Herbert Gaddis from
the county gang several miles from
the city, late Friday afternoon. The
~convicts had just quit work for the
day, when Gaddis darted out from
under the guns of the guards and
started on a run for a nearby creek
and laurel thicket with double chains
a-clinking. The guards fired, but
Gaddis continued to run AT the bank
of the creek the guards fired twice
and Gaddis yelled and tumbled in. The
guards thinking they had killed the
escaping convict, hurried to the creek
to pick up the remains" They
found, instead of the remains, Gaddls
going through the laurel thieket. He
succeeded in making good his escape.

ROOF GARDEN VAUDEVILLE
ON A CHURCH.

Philadelphia. = When the Rev.
Charles r. Mcclellan, D. D., pastor
of the Fair Hill Baptist Church, Of
this city, suggested to his congrega-
ton that the church should be sur
mounted by a roof garden, where a
vaudeville show could be held IN
warm weather to attract men, women
and children to Gospel services, those
present manifested their approval by
subscribing $4,000 for the project.
The Fair Hill congregation is COM
posed largely of mill workers.
DR.. Mcclellan said: "Too many
of our people find the church unat-
tractive. We must offer something
to draw them from the playhouse, the
poolroom and the saloon. If neces-
sary we must supply a free lunch,
which attracts so many men to the
saloon"

A few days ago Postmaster-Gen-

mail carrier suggesting that h
postal regulations state that carriers,
when wearing shirt waists, must wear
dark ties. He then continued:
ct desire very much to know
whether the wearing of ties is COM

to wear ties at all. Does not the

BURIED FRENCH WOMAN
RESCUED TOO LATE.

Paris.-The wife of a farmer OF
Mount de Marsan, in the Province OF
Landes, was buried while in a state
of catalepsy.
The woman had suffered from a
lingering illness, and death appar-
emily took place a week ago. The
body was inferred on Friday, and for
some unexplained reason the grave
was not filled at once.
The following Monday a man who
was passing the grave heard stified
cries proceeding from it, and ran
to the house of the Mayor to give in
formation.
The Mayor summoned a doctor and
hurried off with him to the cemetery.
When the coffin was opened the wom-
an inside made q convulsive effort to
rise.
The doctor put his arms around
her and raised her to a sitting posi-
ton. Her heart was still beating,
but she died shortly afterward.
The woman had torn her shroud
to pieces in her desperate efforts to
escape from her living tomb.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. all the
subterfuges employed by. the Read
ing when it announced a fifty per
cent. increase in suburban fares, in
revenge for the passage of the two
cen fare bill, the Pennsylvania Rail-
road in a statement, in which far
more radical retaliation is threat
ened, boldly declares that the in
crease is due to the passage of the bill.
The Pennsylvania furthermore
boasts that it has no doubt that 1t
can have the law declared unconsti-
tutional, but it wishes to announce
that if there is any delay or if it does
not have the law knocked out there
will be no appeal.
A fat two-cent-a-mile rate to all
suburban points will be charged and
the railroad will sell no Communication
tickets at all. Even ten ride, pack
age and workmen's tickets, the state
ment announces, will be done away

sold after September 80 either, if the
road does not succeed in having the
new law declared unconstitutional.
Thousands of people will be affected
by the move.
