Plans a Big Game Preserve.

Henry Carnegie Phipps, whose on.
gagement to Miss Gladys Mills was
recently announced, is planning to
have one OF the largest game pre-.
serves on Long Island. 1t was for that
ultimate purpose that he purchased
the old Dun estate between Hemp.

The young people, who will prob.
ably be married the first week in De.
cember, are to live on beautiful new
estate near Westbury, where Mr..
Phipps has allied himself with the
Meadow brook set.

The Spanish GaIIeon.

irony Of fate she became, almost from
her inception, a. center of the fiercest
fighting. Square rugged and high OF

forecastle, and poop three and four
decks high, size possessed a pictur-
esque appearance, but little of sensi-

VARIOUS RULES FOR LONGEVITY,
Prominent Frenchmen Have New
Ideas as to Best Methods.

Galipaux, the French actor, laughs
at the old precept of "early to bed
and early to RISE" How can a man
do these things If he is an actor? And
as to the advice to avoid disagreeaDle
emotions, you might as we'll tell a
man who has dyspepsia that the best
way is to take no notice of it. Such
Is Galipaux's opinion; nevertheless he
believes In a certain regularity Of life.
He has his table set for dinner at
seven o'clock. Even II he is not in
the house the dinner is served as
usual. He often finds the knowledge
that the meal will be served at that
hour without fail is an inducement to
him to hurry home, when otherwise
he would not trouble himself to do 80.
Gen. Gallifet, who even as far back as
the early sixties received fearful
wounds, from which it seemed hope.
less to suppose that he would recover,
has still the same elegant figure and
the same dashing style as in youth.
His rules are absolute sobriety, never
read the papers, laugh at death, but
have q terror Of fools"

The Dramatic Instinct.

Prof. Bradner Matthews, in a leo.
ture on theatrical conventions to 4
class in dramaturgy, the other day
told the following story: ~.
"A little girl had dramatized q sofa
pillow into horse, and had ridden
on the horsa to her mothers knee.
'Horsy is thirsty, mamr.a,' she said.
To humor her, the mother brought a
glass Of water, but the little one care
fully emptied the water in a jardiniere
before offering the glass to her pillow.
A Pretended horse ought to drink per
tended water she remarked gravely."

! rendered due courtesy to every fair
visitor there. Their hospitality will
! be remembered as long as the Lone
Star State floats the union flag.
Wednesday morning the meeting
was called to order by the president,
and the walls of that vast city hall
resounded with the words of that
grand old hymn, How Firm a Foun-
dation," followed with prayer by the
chaplain.
The address by the president was
intelligent and strong, sparkling
with good sense. 1t struck the key
note of the Union, and the farmers
interest of America.
During the recess hour at noon
among the sights taken in was the
stock yards and the immense pack
ing house of Swift's.
That night the Georgia girls were
royalty entertained by Miss Horton,
assistant secretary of the Texas
Union.
Thursday afternoons the Georgia
delegation was invited to a brake
mans barbecue on Lake Como. 1t

The cue was abundant and delight
full.
The convention closed at 1 O'Clock
Thursday night, and Friday was a
leisure day. In the afternoon we
went over to Dallas, a distance of
about 33 miles After viewing parts
of the town we went to the City
Park, where we enjoyed ourselves
awhile. We then went back to the
Oriental Hotel for a rest.
After supper at a Japanese res
taurant we visited Lake Cliff. whose
beauty adds much to the appearance
of that thriving city.
Saturday morning at s o'clock we
turned our faces homeward We
then had to separate with President
and Mrs. Duckworth and little
Bruce, who had decided to stay over
a few weeks. We regretted very
much to leave them, but were placed
in charge of Mr.. J. l.. Lee, who did
everything for our pleasure and COM
fort.
AS we pulled out of that famous
western city Mr.. Day stood and read
abound:
Texas, tbs for you; I love you
I | love your noble name,
| love your national fame.
Texas, | love you;
For this | bid you all adieu."
Our party arrived in Atlanta Sun
day night, September 9Th, at 1890,
and next day all returned to their
respective homes, much gratified
with the trip to the national conven-
ton.
Texas is a grand, great and ex-
pansive state, but give me our sweet

Receivers of the Exchange Bank in

Through the sheriff's office of Bibb
county service has just been made
upon directors of the old Exchange
Bank, and over a dozen persons in
this way have been formally notified
of the suit for 100000 filed against
them by the receivers of the bank.
The receivers allege in their suit that
the breaking of the bank came as a
result of mismanagement, and that
the directors were largely RESPONSE
bic for not going deeper into the af-
fairs of the institution while in office.
1t is estimated that the directors
who have been made defendants in
the case will have to pay a large sum
of money in defending the case.

lowing directors: w. d. Lamar, H.

ADVERTISES FOR FARMERS
UNCLE SAM WANTS 5000 OF
THEM FOR THE WEST.

Wanted-3, 900 practical farmers
who would like to own homes of
their own. The government has
nearly 100000 acres of land lying
under the various irrigation projects
throughout the west for which water
will be available next season. The
farm unit on these projects varies
in most cases from 40 to so acres
of irrigable land, depending upon
location. In many sections tract
of grazing land has been included in
the farm unit wherever practicable,
bringing the total up to go acres.
The only charge for these farms,
besides the regular land office fee
for filing, is the actual cost of get
ting water to them, and payment
may be made in ten annual INSTALL
ments, without interest.
These irrigation projects are scat
tered over the entire arid region,
from Canada to the Mexican line.
In consequence, every variety of
crop grown in the temperate zone
can be raised under them. If you
would like fruit or diary farm, a
garden for market truck, a tract
for diversified farming, hog or pou!-
try raising just write to the Stats
tician of the U. S. Reclamation Ser

ernor John A. Johnson may have lit
tie or no opposition in his candidacy
for the governorship if a report from

f. Jacobson, the republican candi-
date, has any foundation.
1t is claimed that Mr.. Jacob
son has not been properly natural
lied, and not being a citizen of the
United States cannot run for office.
Mr.. jacobson was born in Norway
and moved to this country with his
parents. Inquiry shows Mr. Jacob
son has never taken out naturaliza-
ton papers, and inquiry fails to es-
tablish that his father did. The
matter is being investigated by the

PURGE PARTY OF BOILERS
THE PRUNING KNIFE MAY BE
APPLIED TO THEM.
Question Will Come Before State

Question Will Come Before State
Democratic Committee. Smith
and Brown Factions Favor 1t.
What will the democratic party
organization do about those voters
who participated in the primary of
June 4th, and voted for Yancey Car
ter in the state election?
An Atlanta dispatch says it is ex-
pected that the state committee will
take some action at it's next meeting,
before another campaign begins, in
order to absolve the organization of
all charges of being partisan for any
candidate or faction in whatever
steps are taken. There is a decided
sentiment among leading democrats
of both of the recent contending fac
tons to hereafter exclude all those
who went back on their obligation
from future democratic white pri-
maries. 1t is known that some men
who are we'll known in their respect
i've communities failed to abide by
the primary result, and voted the in
dependence ticket. One prominent
banker of Marietta acted in this way,
and several well-known Atlanta men
are known to have done likewise. 1t
is reported that several members of
the Fulton county democratic ex-
ecutive committee voted for Mr.. Car
ter. If this is found to be true they
will probably be asked to resign.
1t would be difficult for the state
committee to adopt an absolutely fair
method of eradication in removing
those who failed to support the
ticket from future membership in the
party. About the only thing that
could be done would be to provide a
method of challenging, first adopting
a rule that those who have ever
violated their obligation in the past
shall not be permitted to vote as
well as those who fail to obligate
themselves to support the candidate
named in the particular primary.
BY this method a voter, when chal-
lenged, would be asked to subscribe
to an oath of the above effect; first,
that he had supported the ticket in
the past, and, second, would do so
in the instance at hand.
If the committee undertakes to
outlaw those who voted for Mr.. Car
ter it is probable that some will de-
mand that the same rule be applied
to those who support Thomas E..
Watson, populist candidate for presi-
dent, at the November election.
Difficulties will be met with when
this last proposition is faced. When
the state committee undertook to do
the same thing in 1906 because of a
large number who had taken part in
the state primary voting for Watson
in the national election a howl of
protest went up all over the state.
The succeeding state convention
failed to make the party organiza-
ton clear on the subject, and the
platform of the last convention binds
voters only to the nominees of the
particular primary in which they took
part.
No party integrity can be main
tanned unless those who enter a pri-
mary are bound to support the can
didates named therein; and the state
committee will doubtless take steps
to prevent such action in future.
