CAN TON LAUNCH
MOVE TO ATTEND
BIC PRIZE DRILL
COMPANY WILL GO TO lNDIANAP-
OILS WITH CRACK TEAM
NEXT YEAR.
Some New Members Will Be Added
and the Canton Will Enter in
Class A-lnterestins Meeting Held
BY the Company.

At an enthusiastic meeting held by
tie Brunswick canton Wednesday
night, which was the first held since
the company returned from the meet
Ing of the sovereign grand lodge in
Atlanta, plans were launched for one
OF the greatest trips ever taken by a
Brunswick organization, which will
occur next September, and from this
date to the date of departure the
members of the company will be
hard at work.
The trip will include the great
prize drill to be held in Indianapo
lis, during the meeting of the grand
lodge, where they will contest with
cantOns from all sections of the coun-
try. The first prize at this great drill
will be the round sum of 81 800, for
ton will enter in this class.
The record made by Capt. Newman
and his men in the recent Atlanta
drill, when they carried off first
prize in class B, was said to be the
most perfect ever put up by a can
ton, and the company which received
second money was many points be-
hind Capt. Newman's men
Next year the local canton will en-
ter in class A, which will require just
six more men in the regular drill
team. These men will be secured
as soon as possible and once every
week practice drills will be held, un-
til late next summer, when the com.
pany will drill every night.
The Brunswick company will go
to Indianapolis with record which
will be some advantage in their fa-
vor. and the other cantons which will
enter the drill will realize that in or
der to win the first prize they will
have to defeat the Brunswick men.
Much enthusiasm is being mani
tested over the trip by the local
members. Besides going to Indian
apolis they will take two or three
side trips.
The company will also go to Rome
in June, during the meeting of the
grand lodge of Georgia, but they will
have little trouble in capturing the
first prize there, as there is not a
canton in the state which will
compete against them.

NEW LORD MAYOR
IN LONDON TOWN
SIR THOMAS VESEY STRONG
ELECTED YESTERDAY WITH.
OUT OPPOSITION.

London, Sept. 29.-Sir Thomas We.
sey Strong was today elected lord
mayor of London without opposition.
He is a pronounced temperance ad
vocate and is the first teetotalIer
CHOSEN as chief magistrate of Lon
don. He is credited with being a
seit-made man In business he has
been successful as head of a big pa
per supply firm.
The new head of the worlds great,

70 aldermen and liverymen. members
of the various city guilds. The cleo
tion ceremony was exceedingly quaint
and is reminiscent of the London of
centuries ago.
The position of lord mayor has

bers of the Church of England.
Gets $4,000 a Year.
The lord mayor elected today will
be sworn in on Nov s, and the follow
ing day, as usual will be marked by
general holiday and a great civic
pageant. The lord mayor of London
receives a salary of $4,000 year
and lives in the famous Mansion
house, opposite the Bank of England,
the home of the chief executive of
London since early in the 18th centu-
ry. By right of office the lord mayor
will become a chief tutler and cup
bearer to his majesty and the mayor
elected today will play an important
part in the exercises and ceremonies
attendant upon the coronation of
King George next June.
Has Many Perquisites.
In addition to being provided with
a big salary and a mansion, the lord
mayor has many other perauisites
The municipal government provides

eXecutioner. In theory, King George
himself cannot legally enter the city
OF London without the permission of
the lord mayor, and the same prohi-
bition applies to all the soldiers of
the British empire. Theoretically,
the lord mayor of London is about
the most powerful despot to be found
in any civilized land Actually he
has less power for good or evil than
the mayor of an average American
city.

E. C. Butts, who announced for
mayor a few weeks ago, will, it is
now apparent, go in without oppo-
sitiOn While there has been consid-
cradle talk of another candidate ever
since he announced, no one has yet
come out against him, and, accord

city, it is not likely that there will
be any other candidate for the may
orality, therefore the fight will be for
the aldermanic places.
In the First ward there are two
candidate, J. H. Hopkins and c. M.
GOWen, and the contest in this ward
promises to be interesting.
Two candidates are also in the
field in the Second ward to succeed

McKinnon and T. j. Wright, and this
is expected to be one of the most in
teresting contests of the campaign.
The voters of the Third ward have
a three-cornered race to decide the
candidates being w. R. Dart, G. r.

candidates have both served in coun-
