eraI Secretary Crawford Jackson con-
corning the settlement of affairs reIa-
tive to the severance of the superin-
tendent's connection with the insti-
tuition Governor Gentle of the unioue
refOrmatory institution became in
censed and threw a heavy piece of
rock salt at Superintendent Rogers,
missing him narrowly, but striking
Mrs. Rogers and inflicting an ugly
wound on the right wrist, which re-
quired the services of a surgeon.
Mr.. Rogers stated that after this
he seized his shotgun, which he had
close at hand, having anticipated
trouble with Gentle and General Sec
rotary Jackson, and attempted to
shoot Gentle. His gun missed fire
the first time and the second time
his aim was bad, though some of
the shot went through Gentle's cloth
ing. Mr.. Rogers stated that then
Gentle rushed upon him, hurting
other stones as he came, and being
by far the stronger physically, threw
Mr. Rogers to the ground, and while
he was struggling with the muscular
young man Mr.. Rogers stated that
Rev. Jackson also took a hand in the
affair and encouraged and aided Gen
tie.
Immediately after Mr.. Rogers
family had interviewed and stopped
the conflict Superintendent Rogers
came at once to Athens, where he
employed a lawyer and consulted
with him about the affair.
Mr.. Rogers stated that the affair
was the elimination of a long misun-
derstanding which grew out of differ
ences extending over a month or
more, causing the superintendent to
decide to sever his connection with
the state" and remove to this city.
Rev. Crawford Jackson was reached
by phone at Center late this after
noon, and his version of the affair
practically corroborated the state
ments made here by Mr.. Rogers in
regard to the assault and shooting,
except that Mr.. Jackson stated that
Rogers shot at Gentle twice, missing
both times, and that then Gentle took
away the weapon and mauled him
soundly. He stated that his own ac-
lions were solely in protection of
himself and young Gentle, as Rogers
was evidently beside himself with
rage. He has sworn out a warrant
for Superintendent Rogers at Center,
charging him with assault with in
tent to murder
Mr.. Rogers has not sworn out
warrant yet for young Gentle, but
while here yesterday he stated that
he and the governor" of the state"
never agreed, and that Gentle was
guilty number of times of miscon-
duct towards the superintendent and
the superintendent family.

Representative Hull Wants Congress
to Find Out What Makes
High Prices,

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The in
crease in the cost Of living was the
subject of a concurrent resolution
offered in the house today by Repre-
sentative Hull of Tennessee. 1t pro-
vides for a joint committee of seven
members of the senate to investigate
conditions and report upon them and
as to what remedies may be affected
through legislation.
The resolution sets forth that dur
ing the past twelve months there has
been a rise in the prices of commodi-
ties of from II to 80 per cent, and
during the past thirteen years of
more than Sc per cent, which is en-
tirely disproportionate to the in
crease in wages, making it difficult
for millions of people to procure
food, clothing and shelter consistent
with their needs.

ROW IN Juvenile STATE"
OFFICIALS CAME NEAR BEING
KILLED IN CONFLICT.
"GoV." Gentle, Superintendent Rog-
ers and Rev. Crawford Jackson
Mixed Up in Melee,

ATHENS, Ga.-The Juvenile State,
which was recently founded about six
miles from this city, had a sensation
in its midst yesterday which will dis
rupt the institution for some time at
least, and which will come as a sur
prise to those who have watched and
assisted this worthy movement in the
state
When the Juvenile State was
founded on the magnificent farm do
mated by DR.. Hardman Mr.. James NJ
Rogers was installed as superintend-
ent, and Rev. Crawford Jackson, the
general secretary of the Juvenile Pro-
tective Association, was directing the
management of the farm.
In November John B. Gentle, the
young man whom Rev Jackson
picked from an Atlanta court and re-
formed, was installed by Judge Rich
ard Russell as governor of the in
stitution. For a while there was only
one citizen of the Junior State, Rich
ard Moore, of Gainesville, but every
thing went smoothly and the work
was being pushed all over the state.
But it seems that some time ago
there arose a misunderstanding be-
tween the superintendent and the
governor, with the result that yes
terday it eliminated in open clash
and the former came to this city and
stated to many citizens that there had
been an open fight, and that Rev.
Jackson and Gentle came near being
killed
Superintendent Rogers stated that

TRIAL DIVORCE GRANTED.
Unprecedented Action of Indiana
Judge ArOuses Discussion.

What was dubbed a trial divorce"
by Chicago lawyers was granted at
Hammond, Ind, by Judge V. S. Rich
ter in the Lake county superior
court. Some of the attorneys who
learned of the unusual divorce de-
clared the court had no precedent
for the action, and that the restric-
tions imposed cannot be held to be
binding under the laws of Indiana.
Judge Richter termed his new
form of separation a limited divorce.
By the terms of the decree Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. Wohole are divorced for
five years, after which they may live
together if they desire. In the mean
time if they wish to re-wed they will
be unable to do so.
The question arises, whether if,
during the five years period, the
couple should go outside the state
and re-wed and then decide to get a
divorce again after the expiration of
the period they would have to get
two divorces to be legally separated.

PROBE INTO COST OF LIVING

The resolution charges the Payne
tariff bill with being a large factor
in the rise of prices of necessities
through permitting trusts to monopo-
lie products and raise prices. Su-
gar, meats, wooden and cotton goods,
wearing apparel in general, and, in
fact, most of the necessities of life
are mentioned as being extortionate-
ly increased in price. BY the terms
of the resolution the committee is
authorized to sit anywhere and ad-
minister oaths to witnesses.
In consequence with the resolution
introduced by Representative Hull,
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson has
ordered a sweeping inquiry into the
cost of living in the United States.
Il realize" said Secretary Wilson,
that we have undertaken a big con-
tract, but we can carry it out We
have the men and we have the mon
ey, to paraphrase famous state
ment, and the work will be done
thoroughly"

MAY YET SEE OVER PHONE
BY INVENTION OF AN ENGLISH
ELECTRICAL EXPERT.
May BE Possible to See People in
Another City While Sitting
in Our Homes.

III OuE I1OII6Ss
LONDON-Talking over the teIe-
phone from London to Paris seems
sufficiently wonderful, but shall we
ever be able to see people in Paris
while sitting comfortably in our
homes or business house in London?
This point is raised by the recent
success of Mr.. RUNNER, who has sue
ceeded in transmitting likenesses of
lnanimate objects over a telegraph
line.
The problem has been attempted
by other scientists besides RUNNER.
with more or less success. among
them being an Italian electrical en-
ginees named Sulvelli and two
trenchmen, Rignoux and Fourier.
These inventors have all used means
similar to Herr RUNNER, using the
element selenium in their apparatus,
which varies in it's power of resisting
an electric current according to the
amount of light which falls upon it.
Different parts of the image of a
person reflected on the seleniurH
would be, of course, of different
brightness, and each part would reg
ulate the resistive power of the sele-
mum cells.
Inc present apparatus of Herr
hummer renders it possible merely
to see simple patterns at a distance.
and he has actually demonstrated
that it is possible to see such pat
terms by means of telegraphy. His
experiments show that with a larger
apparatus the process of television
could be solved and the head and
shoulders of human being could
be seen over distance This would
mean that man wishing to cash a
London cheque at a Paris house
could be seen in London over the
telegraph wires by his English aaents
and identified.
The apparatus consists of a screen
divided up into small sections. TO-
900 in ''life-size" apparatus, upon
which the image to be seen at the
other end of the line is projected by
means of special form of camera.
Each small section of the screen is
provided with a selenium cell that
is sensitive to light, and regulates
an electric current transmitted
through the wires. These electric
currents are made to regulate the
light falling on the corresponding
sections of similar screen at the
end of the line, whereby the image
is reconstructed

100000 FERTILIZER TAGS.
And Then Some Received at State
Department of Agriculture.

Eight million and five hundred
thousand fertilizer tags have been
received at the department of agri-
culture at the state capitol in At
lanta to be sold to the fertilizer
manufacturers doing business in
Georgia to be placed upon the fer
tilizer used in this state during the
year 1910. This represents $4,000
tons of fertilizer, which will in all
probability find it's way into the soil
during the coming spring season.
Commercial fertilizer composed of
cotton seed meal, KANT and phos-
phOric acid is probably the most uni
versal fertilizer used throughout the
south, and those planters who used
it during the past season achieved
splendid results.

Mother calls me Willie, but the fell

There is only one sure preventive

the first name of his offspring shall

MACON, Cain his prison garb
c. NJ Orr, former cashier of the Ex-
change Bank, was brought from the
state farm to testify at the trial of
Chas B. Bannon and Alex Wachtel,
charged with embezzlement of funds
from the defunct bank In the office
of the solicitor general where he was
confined during his stay here there
was enacted a pathetic scene.
On his knees Orr pleaded with So
licitor Grace to spare him the humil-
iation of appearing in felon's stripes
on the witness stand before his for
mer associates and friends. He told
the solicitor that he would commit
suicide before he would be placed
upon the stand.
He further declared that before he
would testify against young Bannon
and Wachtel he would receive any
sentence the court might impose for
contempt
The solicitor yielded to the plead
ings of the convicted banker, and
sent him back to the state farm.
Only the court officers and few
newspaper men saw Orr during his
stay in the city. He plainly shows
the effects of prison life. He is
emaciated and downcast in express
sion, looking many years older than
when he entered the PRISONS doors
a year ago.
j. w. Cabiness, president of the
Exchange Bank, was a witness in the
case. He is under sentence of one
year for declaring false dividends
He, too, has aged considerably dur
ing the severe strain under which
he has rested. He told with reluc-
lance of Bannon's connection with
the bank, declaring the young clerk
had no authority to allow Wachtel
to overdraw Intense interest is
manifested in the probable outcome
in the case.
Will Ask Pardon For Orr.
To secure the release of c. M. Orr
from the state penitentiary Attorney
Minter Wimberly is now preparing a
petition which will be. circulated
among the people in Macon, and
later presented to Governor Joseph
M. Brown, asking that Orr be par
doned from the state farm, where
he is now serving a seven year SEN
tence for the embezzlement OF FUNDS
from the Exchange Bank.
Mr. c. M Adams, Mr.. Joe N. Neel
and other friends of the former bank
er are working in his interest, and
no doubt when the petition is cir
culated among the business men and
other people in Macon it will be
readily signed.
1t has been stated that several per-
sons who were against Orr during
the trial are now willing to do what
they can, to secure his release. He
has served about three months OF
the seven-year sentence. When he
was in Macon this week he heard
