ATLANTA To- SHUT OUT
BEGGARS ON STREET
All Professionals to Stay Off
Streets

Atlanta, Nov. 6.-The usual ante
Christmas campaign against beggars
is on, and the Associated Charities has
appealed to the police to clear the
streets of them. The association is
willing to help all who will be helped
in the right way.
A street pencil padder, known as Il
professional, was one of the first TAX
en- into the police net. He was given
the privilege Of paying $25 fine or
leaving town. He left.
Atlanta is a mecca for all sorts of
street beggars, especially during the
holidays Secretary Joseph Logan of
the Associated Charities tells of a beg
gar named Murphy who used to take
in $2S day during the Christmas sea-
son. He finally was compelled to get
off the streets and $40 a week job
was secured for him. He gave it up
because he sal his feet nurt and he
couldn't walk, though he would walk all
over town when begging.
One young fellow, says Mr.. Logan,
refused medical aid to ward off paraly-
sis, for fear that he would be compell-
ed to work, instead of being allowed 70
beg.

Will ARRANGE FOR The
GOOD ROADS TOUR
Secretary Lewis to Be Here
Today

Announcement has been received
here by Mr.. Crawford Wheatley presi-
ident of the Board of Trade that Mr..
Fred Lewis, secretary of the execu-
tive committee of the Georgia Good
Roads Tour, which will be con
Quoted the latter par of this month,
will arrive to-day to arrange the
routes by which the cars in the tour
will enter and leave Americas, which
is the first night control along the
tour.
Mr.. Wheatley, who is thoroughly
familiar with the local roads, has
practically selected these routes a1-
ready, though Mr.. Lewis will confer
with him before the final selection
is made. In accordance with the
plans already suggested the cars
will enter the city over the Americus-
Oglethorpe road through east Ameri-
Gus and by way of Rees Park, Taylor
and Lee streets. On leaving the city,
the cars will likely go by way of
Church street over Muckalee Hill.
The number of entries for the
tour has not been as large as had
been expected, though there is suf-
ficient time still remaining for the
list to be swelled. Interest in the
tour will daily grow stronger as the
time for the holding of the big races
in Savannah draws nearer. Already
the local Board of Trade is represent
ed by a car, and there is one other
entry. 1t is hoped, however, that
there will be a good many others who
will join the tourists when they
reach Americus on their way around
the state.

ed Near Columbia

Savannah, Ga, Nov. 6.-Southbound
passenger train No. 43, of the Sea-
board Air Line railway, leaving New
York at 1890 o'clock Sunday morning

25 miles south of Columbia this morn
ing at 1 o'clock, killing Engineer w.
Edward Pritchard and injuring his
fireman, Prince Davis, colored.
H. G. Freeman, express messenger,
and T. w. Moore, mail clerk, on the
train were also slightly injured.
The engine turned over pinning the
engineer beneath it.
None, of the cars were deraied and
no passengers were hurt.
Engineer Pritchard was a native of

remains were brought into the city
during the day and will be carried to

WAS once JUSTIFIED
BY FRENCH JURY
Believed in Right to Take
Human Life

Pensacola, Fla, Nov Elm view OF
the fac that the statement has been
repeatedly made that the case at Kis-
simnee, in which Gillette, the Shaker,
killed Sister Sadie Marchant by re-
quest, is the first one in which the
question of euthanasia is to go before
jury and the courts statement that
Judge w. B. Sheppard of the United
States court made today is every in
teresting. Judge Sheppard said that
over forty years ago similar case
was tried in Paris, that the defendant
was acquitted by the jury and that the
jury was severely criticised by the
judge.
Judge Sheppard said that he found a
report of the case in the American
Lawyer in the issue of June, 1899
"The case was widely discussed by
the press and lawyers at the time and
the verdict of the jury created much
excitement" said Judge Sheppard. 1T
was a case in which a mans wife
was hopelessly afuicted with asthma
In a fit of despair and great anguish
she entreated her husband to dispatch
her. In a moment Of despair he
yielded to her entreaties and admin.
istered dose of chloroform that kill
ed her. The case was tried and the
defendant was acquitted by the jur!
! on the ground that he had no malice
and only wanted to give relief to his
wife. The judge severly criticised the
Jury for the verdict and the matter was
widely discussed So it appears tina
the case at Kissimmee is not the frs
one though it is very interesting"

EXPECT TO Lower ALL
PREVIOUS WORLD RECORDS
Races at Savannah Will Be Greatest
in the World.
community

Savannah, Ga-Over seventeen
miles of roadway, averaging from six
ty to 125 feet in width, as level as
ones hand, and thoroughly oiled from
start to finish, the greatest racing
drivers in the history of the world
will pilot monster machines, especial
ly constructed at enormous expense,
at Savannah on November 27 and 80,
in four world famous races, two OF
which are the acknowledged blue rib
bon events of automobiledom-t
latter, the International Grand Prize
Race and the Vanderbilt Cup Race.
Drivers of international fame nave
pronounced the Savannah course the
finest in the world. Yet there are
many people in the South Atlantic
states who have never seen it. From
all parts of the world people come
to these races. 1t seems this time
that the folks living right at Savan-
nah's door have made up their minds
that they are not going to let another
opportunity pass to witness these eX-
citing, hair-raising events, and, re-
membering the two Grand Prize races
held in 1908 and 1910, when the win
ners nosed out the next men by mere
seconds in races extending over 4OC
miles, they have evidently decided
that they are certain what they are
going to get this time, for from every
hamlet, town, city and metropolis
come letters of inquiry. II Savannah
could have her census taken during
race week, she would be one of the
largest cities in the country. Those
who come will probably see all pre-
vious worlds records lowered. The
course will be patrolled by the locaI
military, who made reputation lol
efficiency in the past two races. al
of the net profits of the races VIII
be given to the military organizations
There will be telephones all around
the course, and the folks at the grand
stand will be continuously advised oi
the progress of the leading cars
There will be two large score boards
on which the time of every lap vii
be posted in large figures. Every one
will know at any time where any cal
is and exactly what its standing il
the race will be. Many times will
cars going at the rate of so to 1O'
miles an hour pass one another IL
front of the stands. The main stanC
will accommodate $4,000 persons
there will be $50 boxes, each accom-
dating six persons, the price of which
is $50 each. There will be over on'
hundred parking spaces. A ticket en-
| titling one to see the four races in ;
reserved seat costs SO; general admis
sion tickets, emitting the holder to
seat on the general stands, are 5
| for each day of the races.

WAS
INDICTED BY
GRAND JURY
It LEESBURG ON YESTERDAY
b Indictment Brought Thus
Far Against Kennedy

4 CSpeciaI to The Times-Recorder.)
Leesburg, Ca. Nov. cit was learn
( d here late this afternoon when the
rs- session Of the Lee county grand
/ sry had closed, and upon excellent
authority, that an Indictment had been
aeunad by that body against Maud
Builders, charging him with the mur-
] er of his wife last August. From the
Bame source it was learned that no
hl of indictment has thus far been
Bought against Robert Kennedy, the
kher prisoner in the county Jail here
Narged with the crime, who awaits
N Investigation of the grand jury.
Little surprise was manifested here
#hen it was learned that an indict-
FenC had been returned against Chill
sseIS, as it had been supposed from the
Tginning that such Wiuld be the out
i Nme of the matter as regards Chill
RrS, Speculation is rife as to wheth-
an Indictment will be returned
gajnst Kennedy, as many are Of the
pnion that the grand jury will make
move whatever as regards the fur
r. prosecution of this defendant.
Opinion is divided concerning the
pbable indictment of Kennedy. Some
! i'm that the Solicitor General will
ke no move tomorrow to bring
| Of indictment against him, while
fers hold that as a matter of set
pig for all time the case in dispute,
h solicitor should likewise indict
fnnedy and thereby allow both cases
be brought to final settlement be-
f. a trial jury at this session of the
|urt.
No date for the trial of the Childers
se has yet been named, though it is
pderstood that an announcement
the date of the trial will
made by Judge Littlejohn when the
prning session of the court convenes
morrow. On account of the fact that
|unsel on each side must be given at
psf days notice before the calling
such a case for trial, it is not prob
|le that the case will come up be-
Pc Wednesday. The length of time
lat will likely be required for the
lal OF the case is a matter of conjec-
re, though it is thought that no
ore time than the remainder of the
eek would be necessary.
The finding of the indictment
'ainst Childers has, served to revive
eal interest in the case, which has
Gently been at very low ebb.
neither the grand jury also returns
indictment against Kennedy or not,
e trial of the case against Childers
III likely serve to rekindle much of
e intense interest in the case which
as shown when the preliminary
arings were conducted here in Sep
mber. The further findings of the
and jury, as we'll as the conduct of
2 trial of Childers, will be awaited
18th much interest not only here but
