Against Admitting Women.

Atlanta, July 18.-Although
woman graduate of the Atlanta Law
school-Mrs. Minnie Hale-is the
central figure in the agitation to
amend the constitution so that
women can practice law in Georgia,
the general sentiment of the mem
bers of the Atlanta Bar Association
thus far expressed, is decidedly
against the innovation. This is not
through any lack of chivalry, but
rather the reverse. They do not
believe that public pleading in a
court room, by a woman to a jury
of men, would be a good thing, and
they feel that a change in the law,
admitting women to practice, would
result in just that sooner or later,
even though the first one or two
might confine themselves to office
practice.

From The Georgia State Fair.

If plans which are now being per-
perfected are carried out it is prob
able that the county agricultural
exhibit which wins the first prize
at the Georgia State fair this fall
will be sent to the big land and in
dustrial show at Chicago in Novem-
Der. Thus the winning county will
not only receive a great deal of pub
licity at the state fair but at the
international land show as we'll.
General Manager Harry Robert
has practically completed arrange
ments for a big six day aviation
meet which will surpass in detail
every affair of the kind ever held in
the South, There will be some of
the leading aviatorS of the country
here for the event and visitors to
the fair will see the bird men pull
off some startling stunts.
In order to secure the best at
fractions in the eastern amusement
parks, General Manager Harry c.
Robert will leave in the near future
for New York, Philadelphia and
other cities, and he expects to return
with a string of amusements which
have never before been equaled in
the South.
In order that Georgia may be as
we'll represented as other states of
the south, the Georgia agricultural
society will ask the state legislature
to give $4,000 for permanent i'm
provements at the state sair grounds.
If the legislature grants the appro-
priation the city of Macon will make
a second appropriation of $4,000
Georgia is the fourth state of the
United States so far as agricultural
interests are concerned, but is
wofully lacking in uptodate state
fair grounds. Practically every state
in the union has made large appro-
priations for their state fair in recent
years with the exception of Georgia
In order to encourage the breed
ing of fine live stock, the Georgia
State fair will bring several car
loads of registered stock to Macon
this fall and after the fair is over
will sell to the highest bidder.
Among the stock which will be
brought will be one or two car loads
of Percheron mares, one car load of
Missouri mules, one car of Berk-
shire swine and one or more cars of
fine jersey and other cattle.

The Guarantee OF Bank
Deposits.

Il have studied this question from
every conceivable standpoint, even
from the position of a National
banker, and have no hesitancy in
now affirming that the principle
of guaranteeing bank deposits is
just as sound, as the principle of
insuring property against loss by
fire, or the human family against
loss by the ravages of disease and
death" Governor Cruise in the
American Banker.
Many progressive banks turnout
the country are adopting the guaran-
tee plan. The Third National Bank
has received scores of letters from
bankers endorsing the plan.

First Time Before The
General Assembly,

Atlanta, July 18.-The legislature
took official cognizance for the first
time yesterday of the proposition to
move the capitol to Macon. Joe
Hill Hall urged it, but not with his
usual seriousness
1t came up with the Burwell bill
to have the governor inaugurated in
January. South Georgia legislators
object that Atlanta would be too
cold for their health at that time.
Joe Hill Hall was Immediately
on his feet. Il have an easy solu-
ton for that part of the difficulty,
he said, Just move the capitol to
Macon"

Gov. Smith Islands For
Prohibition I Enforcement.

Atlanta, July 18-Governor Hoke
Smith has taken a stern and I'M
swerving attitude toward the en-
forcement of the state prohibition
law. In refusing to grant the COM
mutation of the sentence of w. L.
Chapman for running a blind tiger

A South Georgia Governor.

Atlanta, July ia South GeOr-
gia man for governor, on whom to
combine all the strength of the pro
gressive democrats" the Hoke Smith
advocates and the Anti-BroWn
forces-that seems to be the present
program of the politicians who
believe Joe Brown will run for gov
ernor, and who want to defeat him.
The talked-of friendly conference
between Tom Hudson and Pope
Brown, both probable candidates
and both South Georgia men, has as
its Object, it is believed, an amicable
agreement by which one of them
will get out of the race and give the
other his support, so as not to split
the South Georgia vote.
South Georgians in the legislature
declare that it is time for man to
occupy the chair from that part of
the old state-that Fulton and Cobb
and North Georgia have had their
share for while.
The only other development in
the gubernatorial situation is the
announcement of Senator Emmett
Shaw that he will be in the race.

The Bank Around The Corner

Like the Little Church around the
Corner" il. New York, which drew
such wide and prosperous clientele
from every walk in life, due to the
magnificent preaching of Spur
ge0n," the American State Bank is
endeav0ring to make the Bank

treatment to its clients and custo-
mers, strangers and friends.
What the world needs and Graves
today is a strong belief in the sin
certify and honesty of its institutions
and the men who run them and
people are responsive to courtesy,
kindness and kindred manifestations
of human sympathy. If we can
succeed in caring for the interests
of our patrons carefully, unselfshly
and with a real interest in their
welfare, we will be glad This is
our aim.
The American State Bank" THE
Bank around the Corner" on Central
Avenue welcomes you and will try
to care for your banking interests in
a way that will satisfy you. Try
them and see for yourself.

To Abolish Public Drinking
Cups On Trains.

Atlanta, July 18.-The bill by DR..
George Brown to abolish the use of
public drinking cups on trains and
in public places, which it is believed
will be favorably considered by the
house at an early date, is giving
rise to the question of what people
will do for drinking water on trains,
in the event the bill is passed. 1t
is suggested that the method in
vogue in northern states may be
adopted, where paper drinking cups
may be bought on the trains for one
cent each.

A HALF-CENT NEEDED.

While the half-cent has long been abolished, there appears to be a de- mand for it in all transactions in which an equal division of the price cannot be made ,
 The Boston Post says: ''The state ment that local milk dealers are gath ering unto themselves about $1 1000 a day of surplus profit by selling 9-cent milk at , cents a pint gives fresh point to the national agitation for the eoining of the half f-cent.''
 If in such a small matter as milk the people of Boston are losing $1,00C a day which rightfully belongs to them what are they losing in the nation up- on all commodities when the price is an uneven figure? Viewed in this light the little half-cent would save hun dreds of thousands of dollars daily te the people.
 No one could expect the dealer to throw in his alf-cent-then why should the buyer throw in his?
 A reissue of half-cents looks just to patrons in view of the injustice tc the people.

A GLORIOUS RAIN.

This part of the country had waited long and patiently for the showers which laved the dry earth on Monday; and it is to be hoped that this break in the drouth marks the beginning of the wet season.
 Although of less than five hours duration, it was the most copious se- ries of showers for three months; and they were unaccompanied by the vio- lence which has marked recent show CTS in all parts of New England. which, it has to be admitted, were worth all they cost in fury and damage to prop erty
 One of the worst features of this years drouth has been the winds which have followed every rain and whipped the earth dry in a day or two after the needed shower The rain came too late to save various garden crops; but early enough to permit Of many new crops if the skies continue moist, and to revive a few of the old ones.
 Southern New England gardens nev- CT looked more stunted than they do today, with most of the garden truck only half it's usual height, and lacking both in vigor and promise. Tie rain has put new life into all the limp and waiting plants, many Of which are too dwarfed to promise great results
 We realized as never before how 'the showers rejoice the thirsty earth and bless the flowery buds." The lawns are too far gone to recover their beauty in many parts of the city; but there has been such scarcity of wa ter that Norwich was becoming apprehensive of a repetition of the conditions of last year, and this blessed rain has made the near future brighter for the people in all directions.
 With favorable weather there is TOW a chance for all the late crops, and this improved prospect gladdens the hearts of all the people.

THE BULLETINS DAILY STORY
GREAT DOPE

T have here newspaper, madam, , said the unshaven stranger, which contains a special despatch from Lon don, saying that Queen Mary is none the worse for the mental and physical strain of the coronation. Now, want to ask you why Queen Mary is none the worse for the mental and physical strain ?''
 replied Mrs. Curfew, impatiently Maybe she'd be a good deal the worse for the strain if she had to run to the door, expecting to find the butcher s boy with a soup bone that should have been here an hour ago, only to find an agent who talks about coronations and physical strains, when he should be doing something for his whiskers, for never saw such mess as your face is. l could stand a coronation myself great deal better than l can stand this thing of being pestered to death that I don't know which way to turn, as MT. Sparks and his family are coming in from the country to eat dinner with us, MT. Sparks being pas sionately fond of noodle soup"
 T was about to say. madam, said the unshaEen stranger, with dignity,
 that Queen Mary stood up under the strai, because she took five bottles of Dr. Guackendorf's wine of birthstone and beef liver, for whichsI am the agent in this territory. Before the coronation King George was greatly worried lest the queen should break down under the awful strain, but when she told him that she had laid in a supply of Dr. Quackendorf's remedy his fears were dissipated. Let the coronation proceed said his majesty to the lord high chamberlain; my gracious consort.' says he, has primed herself with a course of Quackendorf' s wine of birthstone and beef liver, and is feeling like a hope of the race These were his majesty's actual words, ma am, and you must realize that a remedy with such an indorsement should be in every household

my time to have things ready when MT. Sparks and his wife and daugh- ters come? If that butchers boy does not appear soon the dinner will be late and Mr Sparks will think I fool ed away time talking with a dissolute agent when I should have been at tending to my dinner And that re- minds me that you'd better make your self scarce before Mir. Sparks sees you, or fear there will be bloodsfed, and it would annoy me greatly to have my lawn cIuttefed up with corpSes. There never was a milder man than Mr. Sparks at ordinary times, but a couple of weeks ago an agent went to his house and sold him a recipe for making cider vinegar out of sorghum mo1asses and rainwater.
 Mir. Sparks is a farmer. living sew eral miles out in the country, and he is the soul of honor, his picture hav-
 ing been printed in several leading ag-
 riculturaI papers, but. of course, he
 doesn't know all the laws that are en-
 forced by our courts, most of these
 laws being unnecessary and rlciulous.
 So when this agent told him that he
 could make cider vinegar out of sor-
 ghum and rainwater for 8 cents a
 barrel and sell it for 20 cents gall
 Ion. he didn't know that it was against the law.
 So he started a vinegar factory in
 his cellar, and the other day he went
 to town with a load of his vinegar put
 up in jugs and kegs, and peddled it around, saying it was pure cider vine gar, as the agent told him, and it never
 occurred to him that he was doing any
 thing wrong. he had such faith in that agent. We'll, he had a good day. and
 sold every bit of his vinegar, and went
 home proud and happy, and he and his
 wife sat up all night talking about sell
 ing the farm and going into the vine
 gar business on large scale.
 Bright and, early next morning a pure food officer came out with the
 sheriff and arrested him, and he was fined $100 and his machinery for mak- ing vinegar was confiScated, and all the newspapers roasted him so that he aged ten years in one day. Now, excuse me if I slam the door in your ace."-Chicago News.

AUTOMOBILE REGULATIONS
 WEST.

There is so much peril in automobil- ing from state to state that there cannot be much pleasure in it. The laws vary so that a stranger never knows when he is safe, since not only states but cities make their own reg ulations. Here is city ordinance in operation in Detroit:
 The driver or operator of every vehicle shall give some plainly visi- ble audible signal of his approach to other vehicles and pedestrians upon the streets and shall keep such vehi- cles at not less than six feet from the running board or lower step of any street car which is stopping or has stopped for the purpose of taking on or discharging passengers.
 If by Treason of the presence of other vehicles at the place where such car is stopping or has stopped or by reason of the narrowness of the street 1t is not possible to preserve the dis tahce of six feet from the running board or lower step as herein pre- scribed, then the driver or operator of such vehicle shall stop the same at least six feet from the rear of such car and remain standing until such car has taken on or discharged it's passengers and again started
 Tn passing a car which is stopping or has stopped for the purpose of talk ing on or discharging passengers, the driver or operator of such vehicle shall check said vehicle to one half the lawful speed and pass said car at no greater speed
 Here in New England, state laws make the regulations more uniform and satisfactory; but too many drivers disrespect the law and move at un- reasonable speed under conditions when they should know better and manifest greater caution
