badges of any kind for fear of arrest
and prosecution.
The truth of the matter is the law
in no sense interferes with any negro
or other society, except that it shall
not use the name and emblems belong
ing to another society previously or
gained.
The negro societies may select any
names or emblems they wish, just 50
:oae as they are not The names ar
neatly like the names of other socie-
ties. and the law viii protect them in
the use of such Names aid embleDls
just as it protects those now organ
lied
The truth is only two or three or
ders are in anywise affected, namely,
the negro Knights of Pythias, negro
Elks and negro Odd Fellows. These
orders will have to change their
names because they are clearly in
fringements of the names of the white
orders of the same name, previously
organized.
There is no interference whatever
with the meetings of the negro socie.
+ tles' which may meet when and where
they please.

HOT BIRDS AND SAUSAGE
AS BREAKFAST FOR TAFT.
Royal Feast Will Await Big Bill at
Macon.

Macon, Ga, Sept. 13.-The bill of
fare for the breakfast to President
Taft at the home of Congressman
Charles l.. Bartlett here on the morn
ing of November 4 reveals a complete
plan for all the particulars of an old
time Georgia breakfast, one like the
oldest residents are accustomed to
call good meals
Such a repast does not appeal to
those who attach ceremony to such oc-
casion There will be nothing of
ceremony about this affair, not even
course will be served.
The breakfast will be placed on the
table and the guests will help them
selves. Only waff1es and battercakes
will be brought in after the meal is
placed on the table. Every feature of
the breakfast of the real Georgia far
mer's home will be carried out.
The menu follows: Big dish of
birds, country sausage, ham and eggs,
fried chicken, hominy with red ham
gravy, hot rolls, waffles, beaten bis
cult, hoecake, battercakes, country
butter, fried sweet potatoes, more
fried chicken, coffee, cream, milk.

SAY GOODBYE TO BILLIKEN;
YELLOW KID THE RAGE.

New York, Sept. 13-Billiken, with
his general lack of sartorical outfit
ting to withstand the Arctic and
frozen-face climates so common to ex-
plorers, has a new rival in the field.
1t isn't different way of spelling
the same thing or coloring his face
blue instead of red, but it is little
fur-clad mite, called by the manufac-
turer the Lucky Eskimo Baby.
1t is the first of the flood of novel
ties to reach the street since the dual
announcement that the North Pole
has been discovered
Nothing is explained as to what is
lucky about the kid Eskimo or why
1t is just grinning little Tookish-
hook, fur-clad; a solemn brown face
peering out of the hood.
You can call it Cook or Peary, to
suit your views. It's the latest nov
city since Lincoln pennies.

prohibits any fraternal, social, benevo-

WERE THE BROTHERS KILLED
AND PLACED ON TRACK?
Such Theory Now Obtains at Their
Former Home.

Thomasville, Ga, Sept. 13-The
bodies of J. R. and P. Herbert Chas
tain; the two young men who were
run over by train near Lmupkin
Thursday, were buried in the family
burying ground near Ochlocknee. 1t is
generally believed here that both of
the young men were murdered and
their bodies placed on the railroad
track to give the impression that they
had been killed by the train, as it is
said that the throat of one of them ap-
peared to have been cut and the head
of the other badly mashed, apparently
by a blow from some heavy instru-
ment. AS there were no witnesses to
the deed, however, and the young men
were strangers in that section, it is
probable that nothing can be discov-
cred about it.

Atlanta, Sept. 13-There is a we'll
defined belief that Atlanta will be
successful in her effort to secure the
annual convention of the American
Cotton Manufacturers Association to
be held next spring.
So far as is known no one has poll
ed the board of governors on the sub
ject, but those working in that direc-
ton express confidence that efforts
will be successful.
Invitations have gone forward from
President Asa G. Gambler of the
Chamber of Commerce, from the may
or and from Gov. Brown, urging the
board to select Atlanta as the next
meeting place.
This convention is considered the
most important that meets in this
part of the country. 1t is composed
of presidents, executive heads and
other officials of-aa4AlI cotton mills in
the United States.
The two last conventions of the=as-
ISOLATION were held in Richmond, and
