Athens, o.. Nov. "A minimum
of 319 votes to be cast by 80 states
Is claimed fer Taft and Sherman by
Gen. Charles H. Grosvenor the Sage
of Athens" in his political forecast
made public today. Gen. GrosvenOr
was in congress for 20 years. He is
better known, however, as the prog
ncsticator of the republican party.
Gen. Grosvenor comedies 10 states,
with 145 electoral votes, to Bryan
and Kern. He has looked the field
over carefully, and has reached tho
conclusion that conditions do not
justify the prediction of a larger
vote for the democratic nominees.
A political campaign without the
Grosvenor forecast would be as in
complete as a production Of Hamlet
without the ghost. The Grosvenor
forecast has come to be a necessity
in congress as well as presidential
campaigns.

 As Jefsfson DLSiS stood before the world as the foremost representative of the Southern slave owners cause, no little interest attaches to his treat meat of his own snd of negro slav, 6 genernlly. Professor Waiter l.. Flem- Ing, of the chair of history, in fhe Louisiana State University, at Baton Rouge, has contributed to the Gewanee Revitw for october an article on Mr. !. Davis Views on the Eegro problem. and on his treatment of slaves. Eerne sx- tracts from Mir. Flefning's pSper will be found Interesting. Says Mir. Fleming. introducing his subject:
 "Mr. Davis deaiinGs with the race and his private utteranoes show that he regarded the negro as quite capable of reaching a higher civilization, that he believed slavery to be more or less temporary status and that he was q most conBiderate master. Tn his opin- ion slavery was not only a temporary solution of the labor problem In the newly settled South. but tt was also Il partial solution of what wo now call the racc problenn--the problem of how te make two distinct races live to- gether without friction. That the negro race was fundamentally inferior to the white was his firm conviction. That there was any moral wrong in hold 1nk GA9N9H1 H0 AA C0tAtPNny Wlan AaD6t of the shareholders, would never ad- init. By him, as by most men of his class. then as now slavery was con sidered a benefit to the negro and a rhcogniti6n of that law of nature which subjected the weaker to the stronger for the good of both. Slavery took Idle. unFioral, barbarous blacks, and grad ually rooted out their savage traits. giving to them instead the white mans superior civiiisation--his religion, his language his customs, his industry. The negro was a child race and slav- cry was it's training school These convictions shaped It's attitude toward the individuals of the race. And never a@er4 there more intimate friendships between whites and blacks than be- tween Davis and his servants, as he al- ways called his slaves"
 pr. Fleming is very careful as to his statement of facts. and in every case he quotes his authorities giving chapter and verse, Many interesting incidents are told of Mir Davis relations with his own negroes, both before and after they were set free, but the following will suffice:
 TWO trusted servants were James H. Jones, q free negro and Robert Brown Jones was Davis valet and coachman: Brown was Mrs. Davis servant Both gave faithful service during the war, and in 1885. just be- fore the cellapse of the Confederacy. they were sent South with Mrs. Davis. On May 10, 1865. Mir. Davis overlook his wife in the pine woods of Georgia, and that night was captured. It was Jones who had the Presidents horse saddied and ready. and hearing the coming of the enemy walked Mfr. Davis and threw over his shoulders the fa- nous raincoat which Mir. Stanton's Imagination and Ingenuity magnihed into A female costume. After accom- panyIre the Davis family to Fortfeys Monroe, Jones went to five in Raleigh, N. C. Some years later. when MT. Davis was in North Carolina, Jones called, and his old master excused him

MISS FLKlNS TO

While Duke of Abruzzi Is
Climbing HimaIayaS.

New York, Dec ga Washington
dispatch to the World says:
The end of the romance of beau
tiful Katherine Elkins and the Duke
of the Abruzzi is to be like the final
chapter in which the heroine flees
with her memories to convent walls
and the hero betakes himself and
his wounded heart to the wilderness
of the world to seek forgetfulness.
The authoritative announcement in
the early part of the month that
there would be no marriage between
Miss Elkins and the Italian prince
and cousin of king was hardly cold
whe nthe cable brought from Rome
the report that the Duke was plan
ming to be off to the uneXplored
mountain Businesses of India. Sub
seuuent dispatches have confirmed
that report and ever since Washing
ton has been wondering what the
Young woman would do with her.
self. it being assumed that her af-
fections have been as deeply wound
ed as her royal suitors by the break
ing of the engagement.
The Worlds correspondent learn
ed today that Miss Elkin's attitude
toward society for the next six
months at least and perhaps longer
will be more serious than was ever
anticipated She is going to try to
forget by giving her time UP entirely
to the study and course necessary to
fit herself to be a trained nurse.

SEVEN MORE PLAYS
THIS SEASON
Attractions Now Booked
for AmeriCuS Theatre

Seven more attractions are booked
for the Americus Opera House for
the remainder of the season, with
the possibility of one or more being
added to the list before the house
has closed in the spring.
Thus far the patronage has been
excellent, and it is presumed that the
remainder of the entertainments will
also draw large audiences and give
the season the best report of any in
recent years.
Other plays could undoubtedly
have been secured if the theatre had
been better building, with more ac-
commodations for the presentation OF
dramas now on the road. Sooner OF
later Americas, of course. will have
modern and thoroughly equipped
opera house and the number of at
fractions each season will then be
considerably increased
Those booked for the remainder OF
the present season are as follows

COAL WAS TOSSED TO
FRIENDS IN PASSING
Employees on Freight Train
Detected.

A novel process of touching" the
railroad company in these trying
times of scarce fuel was detected
yesterday as an incoming Seaboard
freight train from Montgomery en-
tered the yards. In the train were
several loaded coal cars, and at a
convenient point two of the negro
train hands got busy as the train
proceeded very slowly. Huge chunks
of coal were tossed from the cars
by the two negroes, it is said, who
doubtless thought the little sideplay
unobserbed. But an officer saw them
and the matter was promptly report
ed to Chief Feagin, who in turn re-
ported it to the railway authorities
and asked for instructions. 1t is said
chat something like 200 or 300 pounds
coal was thrown off the cars at the
point indicated, in front of the house
of a negro woman
