LAST CALL FOR
BILL MEETING
Final Arrangements to be
Made Tonight.
BUTTONS ARE ON THE MARKETS
A Button is the Only Gre
Dental Needed.
Races VIII be Filled and Mind Bets
on the Mule Race will bc Allowed.
Though BoOlmakcrs VIII be Chas-
ed,

The Bills have procured a very
neat button for the picnic which will
be held at the fairgrounds, one week
from today. II Is about the size of a
dollar and Is white with blue letter
ing. The white Is evidently to signify
purity and the blue denotes truth
These are the strong chara acteristics
of ali those who have the name Of
Bill. These buttons will be placed on
sale and each person wearing one
will he asked no questions when en-
tcring the grounds
The final meeting for completing
arrangements will bc held in the rear
room of Bill StraycTs drug store this
evening aud 1t Is the desire that every
Bill who has an interest In the picnic
will be present The committees are
busy today filling the races which have
been scheduled. There will be auto
mobile races, motor cycle races, horse
races and a mule race. There will be
a band on the grounds to play old
tunes, new tunes and cuspidors while
the visitors repair to the refreshment
cream, vaceline and sandwiches Pools
will not be allowed at the races. but
there will be no ban placed on mind
bets on the mule race.
There Is already great deal of in
terest manifested in the picnic and not
only by the people of Marion, but Of
the surrounding country as well. In
quiries have been received from va
rious parts of the county and the indi-
cations are that there will be a crowd
which would do credit to the county
fair From far off California have
come requests for buttons and other
cities in the state are falling into line
and are asking for badges.
The probability is that the city as
well as the fairgrounds will be turned
over to the Bills on Labor day and
that the crowd will eclipse the one
which will be here to see the circus
next Thursday.

the latest edict of Mayor Setter and
in the future Saturday night offenders
will find themselves occupants of u
cell i'm the city prison until Monday
morning.
In the past the mayor has held
hearings about every Sunday and per-
mitted the drunks, arrested on Satur-
day night. to pay their fines and Sc
cure their releases on Sunday morn
ing. Today Mayor Setter said that he
had come to the conclusion that II
was not punishment enough to merely
fine a drunk So as IL does not seem
to keep them from repea ring the Of
fense. The same applies to the othe"
prisoners in misdemeanor cases. The
chief executive believes that having
to remain I'm durance vile from Satur
day night until Monday morning at 10
o'clock will be more of a punishment
than the fine and therefore something
to be avoided.
At least he will give the plan a
trial and friends of Jailed offenders
will be talking into a stone ear when
they try to persuade the mayor on
Sunday to fine the prisoners and re-
lease them.

ANnrnER CERMAN sCANDAL.

A Berlin cable TO the New York
World says in part
Germany stands on the brink OF Il
scandal compased to which Maximil-
Ian Hardin's revelations OF the
Knights OF the Round Table are tame.
Some OF the most powerful families
in Germany are shaking with appre-
hension lest Signora Maria Tarragona,
"a Spanish dancer, be not prevented
from publishing her memoirs. She
threatens to expose incidents in the
private lives Of members of one of Ger
many's reigning families, of several Of
ficers OF the crown, and OF other promi-
nept meA. Signora Tarragona makes
these threats in deadly earnest, and
will carry them out-unless the police
leave her in peace.
THE sonora is 30 years old, and most
fascinating. Her first protector was an
American, who made his tremendous
fortune in steel. Her extraordinary
career began with her meeting with
this American steel magnate ten years
ago. The German police ransacked
her apartment some time ago, and
seized letters showing that she had
acted as banker TO several personages
OF south Germany. She loaned more
than $50,000 in a lump sum to the
members OF one leading family. Re-
verting to her wealthy American pro-
tector, she said:
At Monte Carlo my friend from
America broke the bank. Itwas per-
haps the most exciting moment Of my
life, but to. him, no. Money, was
nothing to him, buthe was peculiar in
many ways. Often he seemed very
mean. Once, I remember, he ordered
a dinner, which lcost $40O, and gave
the waiter cents as a tip"

BALTqMoRE's SEGREGATION ACT

BALT1MORE'S SEGREGATION ACs'
An ordinance, the purpose OF which
is to bring about the segregation OF
egro residents Of Baltimore, passed
the second branch OF the city council
OF that city stnight, ithaving already
been fayorably acted upon by the first
branch.
Mayor Mahool. it is said, will sign it
as soon as he has satisfied himself that
it is in legal form.
1t is probable that the ordinance will
find its way at an early date into the
courts as some doubt has been raised
as to its constitutionality.
The West ordinance, as it is known,
owes its existence to the fact that negro
families have lately moved into houses
on McCulloch and other streets hereto
fore inhabited exclusively by white
peesons.
Under the terms OF the ordinance,
after it has been signed by the mayor,
it will be unlawful for negroes to move
into any block in the city in which at
the time majority Of the houses are
tenanted by white persons, and for
white persons to move into any house
in block in which majority OF the
residences are occupied by negroes.
