GOV. BROWN WILL

least two o-her candidates who are
being groo.ned by their friends, and
WHO are intently waiting for the breeze
OF popular sentiment to blow IN their
direction, may come into the race.
No Bitter CAMPAIGN.
One thing is almost certain. With
former Governor Smith eliminated,
there is little chance of a renewal Of
campo gu of the intense personal
bitterness Of that of two years ago.

The friends of the present admins
ration are not at all alarmed by the
entrance of several candidates in the
field. While they would have prefer
red to have seen Gov Brown re-eleet-
ed without opposition, feeling as they
do that his quiet, business-like admin
stration has entitled him to such an
endorsement, they do not believe for
minute his chances for reelection
are in the slightest diminished by tho
presence in the field of several oppo-
ucnts.
With general unanimity throughout
tie state those who supported Gov
Brown two years ago have signified
their satisfaction with the regime he
has given, and it is not likely that
any man who might ente' the race
could make serious breaches in their
ranks.

Judge RuSscIl's Position.

Judge RuSSeIl's Position.
There is much speculation as 20
what Judge Russell's program VIII be,
and from just what elements he ex-
poets to draw his support 1t is known
that he has declar d himself in the
race against the advice of many of
his friends, who under other ci:cum>
stances would have been glad to vote
for him. Some of them have gone SO
far as to express the opinion that on
his return from Canada the judge will
reconsider and decide to withdraw
from the race.
He has between four and five years
more of his term as judge of the Court
of Appeals to serve, which place he
would probably lose by a fruitless
attempt at the governorship.
While it is generally known that
Judge Russell is personally favorable
to local option his statement that lie
did not think it should be an issue
this year and his refSed to discuss
prohibition, would indicate that he is
unwilling to go before the country
counties on that issue. With that in
view, it is difficult to see how he
could expect to get the support of To-
cal optionists against Governor
Brown.
Only a Personal Desire.
Just what reason he has for his can
didacy other than a personal desire
for the office, it will remain for him
to show when he comes back to Geor-
gia this week.
As for the other candidates, Senator
H. H. Perry, of Gainesville, while he
is held in high personal regard fog
his patriotism and integ ity, no one
at all familiar with political affairs in
Georg' a believes for a minute that hs
would have a chance of being elected
governor. Perry is a radical of the
radicals WEen he goes in for reform
it is for all the reforms-both state
and rational-which have been sug-
4ested by tie radical leaders for the
past ten years. AS a Smith disciple.
he out Hokes Hoke.
Rampant Radical.
rs c0nfreres in the senate know
that the very mention of a railroad
or auy other public service corpora

a red flag is said to have on bull.

it is a pretty well established fact that

SUES HOSPITAL FOR $4,000
Elocution Teacher Says Arm Was
Numbed by Operation.

The Importance Of gesticulation in elo-
cution was demonstrated in a suit which
Mrs. Mary E Gamble. a teacher Of elo-
cution, has brought against the Society
Of the New York Hospital for $4,000
damages.
Mrs Gamble went 10 the New York
Hospital in December. 1905, TO have her
left arm treated The physicians told
her that an operation was necessary
She said that she consented TO go under
ether. but instructed the doctors that
they must not operate without her con-
sent Notwithstanding her injunction,
said Mrs. Gamble. the operation was
performed. Ever since. she declared,
her arm had been numb. which inter
fered with her means Of livelihood, in
struction in elocution. She said that the
operation was carelessly performed.
The hospital society replied that the
operation was performed by Dr. Lewis
A. Stimson. a noted and skilled surgeon,
and the trouble was that Mrs. Gamble
did not carry out his instructions for
treatment after the operation.

regarding $500 of good Tammany Hall

Several days passed. so the story runs
and Mr.. Murphy got no acknowledgment
OF the generous donation" He sent a
telegram. but still no response from the
county chairman. Then. 1t is said, the
boss of Tammany Hall sent two of his
trusty aids up to the little village where
the county chairman lived. They learned.
as the tale goes. that the chairman had
disappeared from the village on the day
that the cash is supposed to have ar
rived. His friends had no trace of him
and were beginning TO worry.
Some sleuthing was done. and finally
the county chairman was found recu-
perating from a merry round of pleasure

Necessity of Naming Defenders
"a Hours Before Race Makes
the Elimination Test
Impossible.
ENTRIES FOR GORDON BENNETT
RACE.

Aftet session lasting from 10 o'clock
until 1870 o'clock this morning the ex-
ecutive committee of the Aero Club an
Gordon Bennett trophy. 10 be contested
for at Belmont Park tomorrow. Walter
r. Brookins, J. Armstrong Drexel and
Charles h Hamilton. The substitutes
named were Bud Mars, John b
Moisant and Arch Hoxsey.
The rules Of the International Aero
nautical Federation governing the meet
provided that the contestants must he
named by their clubs twenty -four hours
before the date fixed for the contest. As
the weather conditions made the elm
ination trials, set first for Wednesday
and then for yesterday, impossible, the
club had to name its candidates by its
executive committee, headed by Presi-
dent Cortlandt Field Bishop.
The English entrants in the contest are
Claude Grahame- White and James Rad
ley. both of whom will use 50-horsepower
Bleriot monoplanes. France will be rep
resented by Alfred Leblanc, with a
Bleriot racer of 100 horsepower: Hubert
Latham. who flies in a 1O0-horsepower
Antoinette monoplane, and Count de
Lesseps, in a 50-horsepower Bleriot.
Glenn H. Curtiss was invited some time
ago 10 fly in the race without prelim-
mary trial, as recognition of his victory
at Rheims last year. Evidently he has
decided not to do so His new single
surface racer has not been tried enough
to justify predictions Of its speed, but
Mars will fly as an alternate. If neces-
sary, using his machine.
Walter r. Brookins is the leader Of
tf1e Wright aviators. He set d world
record for altitude at Atlantic City, but
soon lost the record to Drexel, who is
also on the team. Brookinss most re
markabIe aerial achievement was his
1S7-mile fight from Chicago to Spring
field, Ill He will use the new Wright
racing bipIane, the smallest Of its type
in the world.
Drexels best work has been done in
flights for altitude, but he has great
speed possibilities in his Bleriot Ham
iltOn is regarded by many as the most
skilful of American aviators. His flight
from New York TO Philadelphia and back
was his greatest feat.
