LETTERS TO EDITOR
Seals Campaign

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 In connection with our Christmas seals programme and the provision for lec- lures, we have copies of a short illus trated lecture on tuberculosis, suitable for anyone to venture to give. Friends in the city or out of it who wish to help spread the light by giving such lecture in a schoolhouse, church, or other place, should write me and learn what arrange ments may be made for the use of lantern slides Such featuring would greatly ps O. mote interest in the sale of Christmas seals.
 In this connection will you please allow me to appeal to all persons of good will to enroll for service on one or other of our seals committees? Arrange ments will be made to avoid the dis agreeable features of the campaigns of other years, such d street work, long hours, etc. On the other hand there is much to be done all over the city, re quiring many hands and feet Please send name and address at once to 5l1S South Twentieth street, or phone M-339.

RED CROSS SEALS
 NET ALARGE SUM The Georgia State Agency Adopts Unique Plan for
 Campaign

Atlanta. December 1.-tSpecial.) )-Ih he Georgia state agency for the sac of the Red Cross Christmas seals. the pro- ceeds from which will be used wholly in the campaign against tuberculosis within the state, announced today that t has just received 1,5o0e00 Red Cross seals which are now being sent out to the va rions towns and cities throughout tho stale and which will be placed on sale during December.
 This looks like a large number at first glance, but at one cent each it will bring in gross only sl5,Ooo for the snti-tuberculosis campaign in Georgia
 The following divisions of these aesls has been made: Atlanta will sell 5oo.Q0o Of them: Savannah. 3oo.oo0 Augusta. 12o,- Macon. 1200o0; Waycross, 40.ooo, and smaller numbers will be taken by other cities and towns of the state.
 Every town in the state of Georgia will have an agency for the sale of these seals and it is proposed to use the proceeds for the purpose of establishing a state wide anti-tuberculosis campaign, and to assist the local associations in Ill the towns of the state. Among other things contemplated is the employment of a field agent to travel over the state and deliver lectures at various points, This agent will instruct the people in the laat- ter of tuberculosis prevention and meth ods of dealing with the disease.
 The seals are to be used as deco rasions on Christmas packages, letters, and things of this sort in which capacity they have become quite popular as the result of several years'-use. It is becom- ing custom which interests and attracts many people, and it has grown with the years .-. .

Rome in Her Worst Days Harbored No Such Vices
 As Modern Circles

Savannah, December 1.-"Rome, in her worst days never harbored such condi- tions of vice as are prevalent in our high est social circles at the present time. " declared Bishop A. ". Wilson of the Methodist Episcopal church south in 9 sermon here today
 Never at any. period of the world $ his- tory,' added Bishop Wilson, has the moral strata been so thin or so low. The world is beset today with more insane theories and philosophes. more hypocriti- cal creeds, than ever before.
 The advance of science and philosophy in the study of the fine infinite subjects connected with the creation of the earth lis imperilng the religious welfare of the world. Scientific process will never dis close the hidden secrets of the universe. The mystery which passeth the under standing will not be unfolded by the hand of man through the application of phi losophy.'
 Bishop Wilson is attending the south Georgia Methodist conference in session here.

YOUNG WHITE MAN
 JUMPS $10OO BOND
Released from Prison Under Bond Pending Supreme
 Court Hearing

Jackson, Miss, December IA few
 days since the supreme court affirmed the case of Vesper Gentry 'vs. State
 and he should by now be on one of the
 state farms, but. he has disappeared
 and his bondsmen are on the anxious
 seat
 Gentry is young white man of about
 2f years of age and -rnarried.e He was convicted in simpson county on the
 charge of robbery and sentenced to two years in the spenitentiary. He ap- pealed to the supreme court and pend- ing the appeal was released by order of the cllaneellor on s10ao bond. The affirmation of.theaease was reported | to the penitentfary officials and the travelling sergeant was ready 10 go after him. but discovered he was not in evidence around Marshall. The disappearance of Gentry was reported
 to tho supreme court today and the
 clerk of the courts of Simpson county was directed 10 issue capias for his
 arrest and place same in tho hands of the sheriff If he is not produced before next Monday the chances are the bond, which is q good one. will be declared forfeited.
 For some time tho Gulf and Ship Island railroad company has been sys- tematically robbed. Depots and box
 cars were repeatedly broken open and several detectives were put to work along the line, especial. attention being given to the vicinity of Saratoga. A
 negro told the agents at that station lres-ceuld catch the man who was do- ing the stealing if given permission
 and he set trap for Gentry, telling him he knew how to get into the Sara toga depot-where there was quantity
 of meat Gentry accompanied the negro
 and carried off sack full of meat. His arrest and conviction followed.
 It is stated on good authority that
 Gentrys friends have already started a petition for his pardon, but he will have to get on the inside of the barbed wire fence that surrounds the Rankin convict farm before the governor will ever consider pardon.

GEORGIA CAME LAW
 IS WELL ENFORCED
Pot Hunters Rapidly Dimin- ishing and Game Is On
 The Increase

Atlanta. December 1.-(Special.)-A Georgias new game law becomes better known, it is becoming more respected. This is the conviction of State Game Warden Jesse Mercer, who finds that sportsmen everywhere are inclinins to-fhe law, and are assisting in it's enforcement. About the only compliments are the pot hunters whose number has dwindled and the man who wants to enjoy his bird supper without going out and killing the birds for himself Game no longer ap- pears on the restaurant menu and while this has produced some little dissatis- faction. everyone is getting used 10 it now, and little is thought of it.
 The operations of the law last year not only increased the number of birds all over the state this season, but has increased the number of hunters. More hunters licenses are being issued this year than ever before, and the kicking that accompanied the process last year has practically disappeared altogether. Sportsmen are paying cheerfully for their licenses Warden Mercer says, and so smoothly are the game laws working and so impressed are the people with the saet that they are going to be enforced, that he anticipates little or no trouble this year.
 In an interesting decision just rendered the state court of appeals has cleared up two important points in connection with the now game law The require- ment of license the court holds is absolute if anyone proposes to hunt outside of his own militia district. Within his own ni7 litia district alone can q Huntsman ope- rate without buying license which costs s for the county and Sl5 for the state. Even then, in the limits of the district, he is not allowed to hunt on the lands of any person other than his own. without obtaining the permission il writing from the owner.
 The court also holds that hunt with hounds which has been legally started, may be carried onto the lands of another where permission has not been obtained but that new hunt may not he origi- mated there without the owners nermis- sion.
 Georgia's game laws are now pretty well defined and sportsmen everywhere arc familiar with what they can and what they cannot do

RAFAEL HERNANDEZ P|T|ES THE REBELS Would. Gain, If Possible,
 Amnesty Promise SITUATION IMPROVED General Orozco, Having Recuperated After Serious Illness, at Head
 of Small Band East of
 0iinaga
SITUATION IMPROVED

Mexico City. December 1.-Convinced that numerous bands of rebels in the states of Durango. Coahuila and Southern Chihuahua are continuing their opera lions merely because they believe sur render would mean summary execution under the suspension Of guarantees, Rafaed Hernandez, the new minister of the interior. announced today that he would attempt 10 gain for them promise of amnesty.
 Cheche Campos and Benjamin Arguado, officers in Oro1oco's organization, are the chief rebel leaders in those dis 4ricts. and several engagements have been fought during the latter part of the week, the government as usual announc- ing victories.
 These and allied leaders have been mal0- ing successful raids on small outposts, hanging for the most part 10 evade en- counters with superior federal forces. The rich country is practically at their mercy, and the federal soldiers are able 10 accomplish little more than garrison the larger towns.
 Minister Hernandez is confident that the rurales who report to his department will be able to cooperate more effec- lively than the regualrF. and aiming at this he has conferred with General De La Vega, commander in chief of the rural guard.
 Hernandez has issued a general order 10 the rurales to commander horses when needed, giving receipts 10 the owners and notifying the government.
 The rurales have complained that ire oucntly because of inferior mounts, they are unable to follow the insurrectos.
 1t is also believed this will prevent the rebels from obtaining horses. and will as- sure the owners of payment. It was sug- gested by complaints of raids from the ranch owners.
 Out of the mass of rumors as to the whereabouts of General Orozco. that most credited is the report that he has reap peared at the head of some hundreds of men east of Ojfnaga, Chihuahua, after recuperating from serious sickness.
 The government professes satisfactio at the improvement in the general situa- 1ion In the state of Oaxaca some dimn- tuition of activity is apparent after fed eral campaign of destruction and sum- mary executions.
 Throughout the republic the number of engagements reported has decreased. Only five were reported today. In one brush yesterday the federals retired after eight hours fighting, their ammunition becom- ing exhausted.
 On the arrival Of a fresh supply o ammunition the federals resumed the en sagement with the result according to al

official dispatch from the governor of Pdebla, that the rebels were routed
 The governor of Vera Cruz reported that with the capture of Garcia Bravo near Tuxpan, ''the last band of rebels in the state has been extermnated.
 Francisco De La Barra the former pro- visiona president, is one of the candi-- dates in the elections today for governor of the state of Mexico, but owing to in terrupted communications it is impossl- ble to learn even the probable result.
 Mexcans are not wholly reassured by the Washington declarations, and ahe keenly interested in the proposed visit ol four American battleships to Vera Cruz and the motive for their coming,
 Much interest is displayed in the character of the Mexican note reply ing 10 that which the United States sent to Mexico in September. It is no secret that the American note is not pleasing to the Mexican government and the failure of the reply gives some basis for believing it is not entirely pleasing to Washington.

NATHAN REPEATS
 HIS BITTER SPEECH
Mayor of Rome Criticises the Papacy Before
 Election

Rome, December 1.--In anticipa ton of the municipal elections which will take place next Sunday, Mayor Nathan delivered a speech today, reviewing the work of his administration. He recalled his address of September 20, 1910, on the occasion of the commem- oration of the entry into Rome of king Victor Emmanuel and the fall of the temporal power, in which he warm ly criticised the papaey
 In that speech, said the mayor today, he had merely contrasted the condi- tion of Rome before 1870 with the po- sition it assumed afterward. He had simply stated facts, but his speech had acquired importance through the crit icisms directed against it. even by the pontiff. He said he would not retract even syllable of that speech, sub- hitting it to the legitimate judges, the electors.
 Mayor Nathan concluded by urging the maintenance Of the. bloc of the lib : eral forces against the bloc, which under the shelter of the vatican, the reactionary clerical forces are organ izine."
 The Osservatore Romano. the vatican organ, attacks the mayors speech, say ing 1t is beneath contempt.
