Macon Still Having Her Trouble;
Over the Prohibition Law.

Macon, Ca. Aug. Am recent de-
cision passed down by Judge FELTON,
of the superior court in Macon, the
city of Macon has a perfect right to
convict man arrested and found
guilty of a charge of keeping whis-
key for the purpose 'cf sale.
If the city can prove that he did
Iso-and purchaser or two is the
kind of witness needed-he may be
sentenced and fined In making this
decision Judge FELTON, upholds an or
! dinance, the legality of which has
been attacked by Judge Hodges of
the city court.
Judge Felton's point is a good one
1t is that the state prohibition law
provides against the sale of whiskey
in Georgia, and also gainst keeping
, 1t at a place of business. The city has
tcompleted the law by saying that il
! must nc be kept for sale.
Now who will win out before tht
court of appeals, Judge FELTON, OF
Judge Hodges? Judge Hodges grant
ed a writ Of habeas corpus and sus
tanned it against the city. Judge Eel
ton has denied to grant a certirorar
from police to superior court.

TO PROTECT VALUABLE
BIRDS OF THE STATE.
Bill to be Presented to Next Leg
islature Prev ating the Kill
ing of Certain Kinds.

Members OF the Marion County
Agricultural and Horticultural
Society will prepare a bill for the
next legislature looking to the
protection of the valuable birds
of the State. The subject was dis
cussed at a meeting of the society
at the State House, Saturday af-
ternoon, when William Watson
Woollen delivered an address on
''The Economic Value of Birds
Woollen enumeraed num-
Der of the, valuable birds, classi-
flying hem into groups on the bas-
is of the manner in which they de-
stroy insects. Some of the birds,
he said, take the insects from the
leaves of the trees, others from
the bark, others gather the insects
from the ground and sorse gather
their food ON the wing> The
speaker declared that English
sparrows are valuable birds and
that they should be protected. He
knew, he declared, that the Eng
lish sparrows eat the seeds of
weeds. Most of those present dis
agreed with the speaker on this
poirt. They believe the English
sparrow is a pest.
In the general discussion it was
brought out that where hawks
and owls are scarce there is an
abundance of rats and mice; also
that the qpal is almost extinct
in Marion county The scarcity
of quail it was stated, is due to
the hunters in the county who it
was said have little regard for the
game laws.
The society went OH record as
being opposed to the indiscrimin-
ate slaughter of birds and it was
voted that bill should be framed
for the next Legislature which
would prohibit the killing of GER
tain classes of birds. The next
meeting will be held on July Il
at the home of Sylvester Johnson
in Irvington.

June North of Weddings.

June is the most popular month
in the year for weddings on ac-
count of the delightful weather
which usually prevails during the
month and the glories of nature
as shown in trees and shrubs and
plsnts, which reach their highest
stage of perfection and have not
lost their freshness and beauty
from the extreme heat Of the sum-
mer months. The June bride is
always the typical bride in all the
story books and some way the
season lends a romantic glamour
to the June wedding. Happiness
seeks both the house of the poor
and the house of the rich, but it
will not enter in if love does not
abide there or if the hearts OF
the occupants are stirred by dis
content.
