with a vigor that cannot be overlook
ed This attitude of many New York
women is not without its influence on
the, stony hearted legislators, and con-
sequently they find themselves afflict-
ed with a peculiar deafness that
makes the eloquenee of the suffragists
all in vain
These militant suffragists of New
York will find that in that great en-
pire state of the greatest galaxy of
states in the world, there is a vast
majority of women who hold to the
old and refining view, that woman s
true sphere is in her home, in her
church, in her social circles where she
is an uncrcwned queen, with undis-
pdted reign over her subjects, in the
love of husband and children, and in
that edifying relation of the hearth
and the Preside that gives to the
American home its greatest charm and
its truest grace, in the enjoyment of
an atmosphere made pure and holy
above the rabble of the world in which
the other sex has placed her and from
whose depths below he honors, re-
spects and loves her

A VERY co.. GUESS.

! The Chattanooga Times, always
deeply interested in Georgia q Hairs
and very conservative newspaper
has been doing some pretty tall guess
ing as to why Governor Brown has
refused to purchase those Chatta-
nooga terminals for the Western &
Atlantic railroad, In fact so good
a guess could scarcely have been
made an random and we are inclined
to the opinion that our Tennessee
contemporary, had it been born minus
/ the precious gift of vision, could have
made real fortune in the game OF
guessing. Grand now for hint at
deep-laid plan-perhaps the esteem
ed Times has been reading the gov
ernors mail! At any rate, as we
: have stated it has come pretty near
Stunning up this matter, as it is viewed
by many Georgians. Hear it:
| I'VE should regret very much to be
forced to the conclusion that Cover

| matter because it had been inaugu-
| rated during Governor Smiths admin
istration, but the total failure both of
himself and his friends to advance
any reasonable or adequate excuse
| for or explanation of his failure to
carry out so progressive a program
comes suspiciously near to involving
him in a very petty scheme for self.
promotion. The Chattanooga Times
was not an admirer of Governor Smith
and rather leaned to Mr. Brown in
his candidacy for the governorship be-
cause we believed him to be broad
gagged man and quite incapable of

best interests of his own state and,
obstructive of the growth of "a friendly
community"
The News, because of dts we'll
known position in the last two CUB
ernatorial campaigns, has hesitated
to charge the governor with the mo-
tive limited at broadly by it's Chatta-
nooga contemporary, but it does begin
to look as If there must be something

THE BRUNSWICK EXTENSION.

! The question of the extension of
the Georgia Coast & Piedmont Rail
way to Brunswick, it is understood,
is again attracting the attention of
the owners of the property and it is
stated that new PLANS are now under
way locking to this very desirable
end. There can be no doubt that
these financiers who control the line
have long since realized that it can
not be made real revenue producer,
until it's tracks are extended to this
city and it is enabled to handle
volume of traffic, which it would UNI
questiohably be able to, large enough
to insure a reasonable earnings ac-
count. Brunswick has all alcng shown
a deep interest and keen desire to
bring about the contamination of this
extension plan and our people believe
that there viii be no trouble in get
ting around the barrier placed on the
construction OF the line by the war
department in the matter Of the size
of the spans Of the bridges when
once new estimates and new surveys
are asked fer and allowed.
The people of Darien are also very
enthusiastic in the approval of the
extension of the line to Brunswick,
as they are quick to see that it will
give them another outlet to the sea.
Discussing the extension project,
the Darien Gazette in its issue of
yesterday, says:
/ The Georgia Coast & Piedmont
railroad has again taken up the mat
ter Of the extension to Brunswick.
We understand that the serious OIL
jections to the bridges have about
been removed and that the prospects
are very bright for the extension OF
the road to Brunswick at very early
date. The Gazette has always bsen
in favor of this extension, and we are
glad that the prospects are now so
bright. OF course there are certain
conditions to be complied with bat We
are sure that these will be easily i'd
justed to the satisfaction of all con-
cerned. We are satisfied in our mind
that the extension will be a good thing
for Darien or we would not be so anx-
ious about advocating it. With two
outlets we can see better days and
more prosperous times for Darien and
Mcintosh county. If there is opposi-
ton to this enterprise we hope it will
melt away and that no further obsta-
cles will be thrown in the way of these
northern capitalists who want to in
vest their money in this county. II |
it's good thing why let's it-and it
is good thing.
"Darien has all to gain and nothing
to lose by the extension of the Geor-
gia Coast & Piedmont to Brunswick.
And the extension of the road to
Brunswick will not cost Darien and
Mcintosh county one cent. We should
encourage the enterprise with all of
our might.

POLICE SAY WIFE
 POISONED SCHENK

Wheeling, w. Va, November 13.-tSpe- cial )--Closely following the confession of Lundy Wilson, the chauffeur who swore that Mrs. John o. Schenk, wife of his millionaire employer, had tried to get him to run their car over an embankment so that her husband would be killed. that she might marry a $20-a-week clerk, came a well defined report today that Mrs. Schenk had planned to commit sui eide in her cell In the county jail here. The woman. who is charged with poison. ing her husband, did not get far toward ending her life as the poison which had been intended to be smuggled to her had been intercepted by one of the women employees of the jail.
 Prosecuting Attorney Handlin continues his efforts to make Mrs. Schenk confess. She remained as obdurate, however as at any time since she was locked up.
 Mir. Schenk who still hovers between life and death, referring to his wfe's ar rest today said:
 "If what the police tell me Is true, she Is where she deserves to be-
 MT. Schenk had been a man of iron strength up to last June. when he re- turned from trip around the world. Shortly after that he began to grow sickly, and finally sank into complets invalidism. It is said that during the summer the Schenks quarreled frequent y over the wifes demand for pleasure and companionship.
 It is said MT. Schenk himself mentioned to friend his suspicion that some one was poisoning him. The friend not fled his relatives and then began the cleN CT work of the private detectives MT. Schenk was confined to his bed and the nurse who had charge of him was a wo- man detective.
 Lundy Wilson, the Schenk chauffeur, was displaced by a detective who Is said to have gathered evidence while driving Mrs. Schenk about the city.
 The nurse detective is said to have re- ported to the prosecutor that on one oc- casion she was trying to open bottle of lithia water when Mrs. Sehenk took 1t from her hands saying, Let me open it: I'm afraid you'll cut your hand'
 This, 1t is believed, was the first inti- nation of the method of poisoning Sev- eral half-consumed bottles of the water were sent to the chemists of the Univer- sity of Virginia and Johns Hopkins uni- versity. The reports came back that all were charged with arsenic in consdera- ble quantity. Mir. Schenk was taken to the hospital about two weeks ago And even there, according to the accussers. Mrs. Schenk offered nurse, also wo- man, s1000 to poison her husband.
 An attempt to have Mrs Schenll re- leased on bail has failed

ALLEGED BUNKO
 MEN ARRESTED

New York, November 13.-(Specia1) Postoffice Inspectors Kinkaid and Red dv assisted by three central officers yesterday raided the sumptuous offices of Fl Progresso Banana company ana it's fiscal agents. the International Finance company in the Tribune build ing. Five men were arrested and ar raigned before United States Commis- sioner Childs. charged with using the
 mails to defraud.
 The prisoners were Frank c. Wa trous. Oliver W. Simmons, secretary and treasurer; Horter T. Harvey, vice president; William L. Sanders, secre- tary of the finance company and the Rev. Claude M Severance, director. waltrous' ball was fixed at s10,0oO and the others at s25oo. They will have hearing on Friday.
 While the governments authorities say they have much evidence against the men, the specific complaint Is
 based on a letter sent to pr. George Nelson Dolbeck, in which 1t is charged raise and fictitious statements were made concerning the company's prop
 
 According to Inspector Kinkaid the company which has been in operation for more than a year has cleaned up from the gullible public upward of $500,000. The literature sent to pros pective buyers of stock spoke of the Honduras property in glowing terms. The Progresso Banana company was
 launched in January, 1909. under the laws of Arizona, with headquarters at phnaniv A mo at a ad at Houston, Tex. In order to carry out the project Watrous, 1t Is said, induced
 his mother, who lived in Denver to
 mortgage her home and household ef- fects. He then came to New York and arranged with the International
 Finance company to sell the stock. With money obtained from stock | sales here Watrous went to Chatta- nooga and opened offices in the James building. There, according to the gov ernment auth critics, he took in more than s100,00o in little over two | weeks.
 The possibility of ar investigation caused his departure for Honduras, | where he obtained options on a tract
 ports to the New York office. Meanwhile, a New Orleans paper, through its correspondent at Honduras, named Hale, had started an investi- gation into the affairs of the Progresso Banana company. Watrous, 1t is said, threatened to kill Hale and Postma ster General Hitchcock. The government inspectors were then set at work.
 Watrous arrived in New Orleans last Monday. Inspectors Kinkaid and Red- dy were waiting for him. but he man. aged to evade them and went to At lanta, Ga The chase continued to New York.
 When searched after his arrest yes- terday S2S00 in cash was found upon Watrous.

ELECTRICITY HAS
 A GREAT FUTURE

London. November Special .)-Sig- turing before the Institute of Electrical Engineers here. foretold wonderful de- velopments in the uses of electricity.
 He declared that before long the wealth. CT will be controlled by electricity, so that the sun will shine or rain fall as needed This by circling the islands coast with an electrical defense, which will force of vapor instead of drifting over the country and obscuring the sun when sun- light is necessary.
 Ferranti professed to believe that be- fore many years electricity will be pro- duced at one-sxteenth the average cost of producing it now; thus cheaply 1t will be supplied for every purpose of energy and lighting by generating 1t on scien- tific and properly controlled lines The by-products of the coal converted into electricity will furnish an amount of ar tificial fertilizer sufficient for every acre of agricultural land in the country
 "All the coal we have to burn should be converted into electricity" said Fer ranti "Then all the wants now met by burning coal will be infinitely better filled by electricity. We should convert our coal by the wholesale at a few great centers only. and retail it in the form of electricity to the present users of coal all over the country. Then we would save 90,0O0.0Oo tons of coal annual ly. and by intensive cultivation be able to grow in the present cultivated acreage all the food we need at present.

LAW PRINCIPLE
 IS INVOLVED

Washington, November 13.-Claiming an important principle in law Is in volved in the case of Frank Wayne, sent to the penitentiary for three years for the alleged burglary of the Sell wood postoffice in Portland. Ore. the department of justice tomorrow prob ably will appeal to the supreme court of the United States to keep him there for alleged larceny growing out of the same transaction. The government wants Wayne imprisoned two more years for alleged larceny of postage stamps at the time, it Is alleged, he broke into tie office, and an additional year for the alleged larceny of sS from the office. A
 When Wayne was indicted in 1907 one count charged burglary and the others larceny. He was convicted on each count and given cumulative sentence. After Wayne had served the sentence of three years on the count of burglary he obtained his release on habeas corpus proceedings on the ground that the burglary and larceny constituted but one offense. The gov ernment is preparing to ask the su- preme court to revise this finding.
