May Extend strike.

AtlRntaY 0as, MdG zV--fnefe were sensational developments today in con- firemen on the Georgia Railroad. the more important being threat on be- half of the firemen to extend the strike to every road in the South, and the for- nal appeal by officials of the Georgia Railroad to the Federal authorities to take 8 hand in order to safeguard the mails.
 The following telegram was today sent to the General Chairman of the Fireman of every road in the South by E. A. Ball vice president of the Order of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen, who is in charge of the strike:
 situation on the Georgia Railroad assuming serious aspect Company forcing negro supremacy. May have to make the white mans cause a Na- tionai one. Hold yourself in readiness to convene your entire joint board at Atlanta at the shortest possible notice.''
 Mir. Ball denies that the striking nre- men have been connected with alleged violence on the Georgia Railroad and intimidation of strike-breaksrs. He said tonight that the fremen expected to win the strike before the end of the week.
 United States District Attorney Tate said this afternoon that complaints had been filed with his office by the officials of the Georgia Railroad with reference to the delay of the mails on account of demonstrations against negro fire- men. He added that the complaints were being investigated.
 Many rumors have reached the city of alleged demonstrations against negro firemen on the Georgia Railroad last night and today. but most of the ru- mors appear to befwithout foundation.

 { Charlotte, N. C., May 2o.--A cloud burst broke over the city this after noon and caused panic in the dense crowd gathered in front of the stand from which President Taft was re- viewing the Mecklenburs celebration parade. No one was seriously hurt.
 In the midst of the excitement and the fleeing -throng, one of the big in- dustrial floats became entangled with sagged almost to the heads of the peo- pie. To add 10 the turmoil and dan ger. there was loud report and blinding flash not fifty yards from the reviewing stand. Just what caused the explosion is not known.
 The crowd scattered in all directions. Men and women alike rushed for the shelter of the speakers stand and the President stepped to one sids to give as much room as possible. The tre- mendous downpour of rain was soon beating its way through the canvass roof of the stand and almost directly over the Presidents head, @ great pool of water gathered, threatening to break down the covering. Tn the en- ergency. some one bought a tall steep ladder. a man rushed up and cutting a hole in the canvas. let the water down in a perfect flood. This quick action prevented any trouble.

1.-THE New Governess," New Melo-dra-
matte Moving Picture.

One of the features Of this weeks
show at the Breed theater is the big
sensational moving picNIre, The New
Governess, which is a very interesting
story OF a young and attractive lady
who accepts the position of 'gOverness
IN a wealthy family, assuming charge
Of a lad Of about twelve years. An
older brother of the lad becomes very
much attached to the governess. and
on the eve Of his leaving for an ex-
tended trip makes her a present of a
diamond brooch, which she places in
the dresser in her room. While on a
call at his fathers office, the lad is
left alone for a moment. and, not
knowing the value of them, he play
fully takes two bank drafts and puts
them in his pocket. When they are
missed, the governess is accused and
convicted upon circumstantial evidence
and is released only upon the return
Of the older son, who explains that he
made her a present Of the brooch, she
having been charged with stealing
the drafts and expanding the money to
purchase it. Meantime the ragman
buys old clothing from the same FAM
lily and finds the missing drafts and
returns them to the rightful owner,
the goYerness' innocence being estab-
Ished, she narries the older son.
Many other strong pictures are
shown as well as comedy ones, and the
fine musical programme for this week
IL especially worthy Of mention, the
pleasing songs Of Madame Morelle and

"The Old Homestead" is a play of a
peculiar quality that defies all rules Of
dramatic art, and yet it is a marked
popular success. 1t has no villain, no
lovers, no thrilling climaxes, and yet
the interest Is maintained from begin
ming to end. This is thes23d season Of
the old play, and its place in the affec-
tons of theater- goers everywhere is
certainly an enduring one. Season aft
