BURGE RESP|TED TILL
APRIL 10 BY GOVERNOR
No Decision In His Case BY
Supreme Court in Sight.
Gets Three Weeks More

Once more the shadow Of the gallows
passes from the shoulders of George
Burge, condemned to die as the slayer
of his wife. and now awaiting the SUI
preme courts verdict of life or death in
his cell in Murderer's Row, in the tower
Governor Brown has respited Burge for
three weeks from Friday. On Friday,
April Is, therefore, Burge will hang I'M
less some power intervenes and stops the
vengeance of the law.
Governor Browns order of respite was
issued Thursday afternoon, following the
governors investigation of the probabili-
ties of the supreme court acting before
the day was out on the habeas corpus ap-
peal of Mrs. Mary e. Burge, the con-
demned mans mother.
Burge was respited several weeks ago
till this case could be decided in the SUI
preme court.
II understand on very good authority
that it may be several days yet before
the supreme court reaches decision in
this case" said the governor. In fact.
I am told that 1t may take all of the
three weeks additional respite to get a
decision. Inasmuch as the intent of the
respite which expires tomorrow is es-
sertially that Burge may have the
benefit of the courts decision in this
matter, 1 see no other course open than
to extend it."

Whereas this institute has been one
of unlimited information to this audi

DeKalb county, and
..Vhereas. IL has carried with il I'M
limited pleasure and good nature; and

TO ABOLISH COURT OF
APPEALS FIGHT Is ON

Representative Persons, of Monroe.
says that at the coming session of the
states general assembly, he will intro
duce a bin in the lower house providing
for the adjustment of the court of ap-
peals and for other methods of handling
the states appellate business. Mr.. Per-
sons, who was a visitor in Atlanta on
wednesday, declared this as his inten-
ton.
al have no fault to find with the en-
inent judges who compose the court Of
appeals" he says. They are all good
men. But their court and the supreme
court are often at divergence on the same
points of law, and anyone can see to
what a complicated state of affairs this
condition is tending.
with the adjustment of the appellate
court, all the business on appeal would
go to the supreme court. If the six
judges composing the latter court can
not handle the work, their number should
be increased to nine. That would in
sure the same dispatch of business as
the court of appeals Is designed to pro-
vide for, but all the judges would be
in the same court and there would be
no conflict of interpretations"
Mr.. Persons says that with the crea-
ton of the court of appeals. city courts
sprang into existence all over the state.
"and almost every case they now try
is taken up on appeal" Mr.. Persons
believes that every city court in Geor-
gia should be abolished, and superior
courts established wherever there is
need for them

BROKER is SUSPENDED
FOR CUTTING COMMISSION

CHICAGO, March PA. Willis Horton,
broker. charged with cutting commits
sions'' on orders executed by him in
stock of Streets Western Stable Car line,
has been suspended for three months
from the Chicago Stock exchange and
fined $500 This was the decision of the
governing committee, and Mr.. Horton
will be officially notified today, when the
finding will be publicly announced by
President f. d. Countiss from the ros
trum of the exchange.
1t was alleged that Horton handled the
bulk of the orders of a pool which was
operating in the stock.
The suspension of Mr., Horton is the
first punishment Of the Kind or a similar
offense administered in the last 20 years
to a member of the stock exchange. By
a queer coincidence the last broker to be
suspended from the exchange was charg-
ed also with cutting commissions on or
ders in the same stock.

TENEMENT FALLACY Is
SHATTERED AT LAST

NEW YORK. March 24-Another an

White China Geese Popu-
~ Ior Ne

The White China geese are
thought by many to be the best
layers of all geese.
A good breeding goose two years
old or older with good care will
lay from SO to 60 eggs in a sea-
son. Breeding geese should not be
too fat. as the eggs from fat
geese never hatch.
In the summer, when they can
get plenty of grass, they do not
need a single kernel of grain and
they will thrive and keep in fine
condition WITHOUT it.
The number of eggs that a goose
will lay and the fertility of those
eggs is largely determined by the
care given the breeding birds dur
ing the winter months. If they re-
ceive proper care the reward of the
care-taker is sure.
The eggs of the White China
geese are very fertile and hatch in
IS days. The goslings are quite
strong when Matched and soon are
able to run around.
Feed the little goslings during the
first few days on bread moistened
with little water. AS soon as they
are able to run around they be-
gin to pick at the grass, and then
they do not require much atten-
ton.

Some Lessons in Flowing
BY. ]. G. STEIN.

Have the field true on all sides;
that is, it may be longer one way
than the other, but each side
should be straight so If you plow
straight when you start, you will
have the dead burrows even and no
wedges at the end.
There will also be no odd shaped
pieces in the center to make a lot
of extra turning.
The crooked way is used by
many, who start a furrow any old
place on one end of the field and
drive to the other end without a
mark to go by. A little crook with
people of this kind does not seem
to be of much Importance, but
crooked burrows always take extra
time and are a nuisance in general.
Another thing which saves much
time, particularly in harvest, is a
space which should be left between
the fence and the field unplowed.
This should be about 16 feet wide,
and should be sown to grass. This
strip will save going through the
grain with binder, and back, and
IL also saves the hired man lot
of extra work in shocking, as he
can start as soon as the reaper
does and will not have to wait
until a swath is cut in which to
place the shock.

Cement Protects the
Sprinu

Concrete is displacing the barrel
as a protection for springs on the
farm. 1t never rots, it protects the
spring, and keeps the water free
from surface impurities.
A young farmer recently invented
an ingenious device for making
concrete water barrels. He took
two wooden barrels of different
sizes. knocked the heads out of
both. put the smaller inside the
larger, and filled the space between
them with concrete, and a concrete
barrel was the result.
A market squad raiser can not
feed as high as the fancier, but he
must feed good, wholesome grain,
avoiding that which has been dam
aged in any way.
