BULL MOOSE IN
GEORGIA SPLIT
OVER NEGRO
Yates Says Dewar Wants to
Change Color Scheme of the
CoIonePS Party in South.

There is war among the Georgia Bull
Moose. There are two convention calls,
two herds of moose, two color schemes
to be considered.
]. St. Julien Yates. president of the
Georgia Roosevelt White league, a
stricdy blond organization declares
that the call issued yesterday by that
fellow Dewar" is calculated to round up
the anti-Taft negroes for the Bull
Moose. or Nfooses, as the case may be,
and that Dewar is inspired not so much
by patriotism as a desire to annex the
Atlanta postmastership when the Colo
mel resumes his So D the white house
next March.
Mr.. Yates issued a card to the public
today. of which the following is the
most caloric portion:
Sees "Heap of Trouble"
There appears to be heap of
trouble ahead Of the 'Bull Moose"
party in Georgia. It seems to be
question of whether Colonel
Roosevelt's new National Progress
sive party is to- be white or black
The color scheme has not yet been
worked out, and the trouble, having
been precipitated will be finished
along about convention time in Chi
cago. There is every reason to
believe there will be two delega-
tons from Georgia to the national
convention to be held in Chicago on
August ). The real fight comes on
July 25 and it will be over the
chairman of the state committee.
Yesterday, Mr.. Roger Dewar. who
claims to be sole living personal
representative of Colonel Roosevelt
IN Georgia, sent out from what he
Is pleased to term the National
Progressive headquarters a call for
g convention to be held in Atlanta
on the 25th of the month. although
his call forgets to state where the
meeting is to be held. Today the
Roosevelt Georgia White league, as
a result of a meeting held some
days ago. issued a formal call for a
meeting Of white men to be held
at the Kimball house on next Fri

Island and other famous resorts, there
is nothing as thrilling as Piedmont s
own sport
The new game is called riding the
barrel" and one attempt at it can cause
more thrills and screams of laughter
than a day spent on the shoot the
chutes" the Hawaiian water wheel"
the slide for life" or any other of the
more complicated "thrillers" for which
you have to pay out good money at
some resorts, One particular feature
too. is the safety of the new game.
Women and girls and the ever pres
ent small boy go in for the fascinating
game more than me do, though the
male element at the lake is not above
participating in the sport.
Like Riding Rroncho.
The sport was started when a large
water-tight key, about half the size Of
an ordinary flour barrel was placed in
the swimming pool On the surface Of
the pool the barrel hobs serenely up
and down and shows little of the tricks
which 1t really has The least motion
will cause it to bounce off the surface
of the water like thing of life.
The game is for the swimmer 10
mount the barrel and stay astride H.
No one has yet done it. but thousands
have made the attempt and had the
fun of their lives in the game. while
those on the banks shouted encourage
ment and laughed at the ludicrous
poses which resulted.
Riding a barrel on the water Is some
what akin to the Western art Of riding
Q bucldng broncho, the only difference
being that the broncho is limited in
what he does, while the barrel ap-
parently is not,
Always the Unexpected.
The pretty girl who takes firm hold
hold OF the ends Of the wooden key and
attempts TO leap astride It can tell
nothing Of what viii happen. except
that she is going to tumble into the
water in few seconds and in some
way Right there Is where the wizard
Of the brainless things gets in its work
According to several theories over
which scientists have labored long. the
barrel should sink beneath the weight
Of It's rider j may do that: some
times It does But the barrel is cviin-
drical in shape and tapers slightly to-
ward its ends. 1t does not do what it
is expected TO DO One time it may
break ali natural laws and rise higher
in the watery another time It will 60 to
one side or the other and these move
ments are executed with lightning rap
iditv and accompanied by a rolling
movement the result of revolving or
its own axis. Then again it keeps its
position in the water and merely re-
wolves on its axis Whatever happens
the rider goes plunging head or feet
foremost. into the water
There are Just about 1000 other
things this barrel can do, and it never
does the same thing in succession"
says Miss Bessie Walty, a pretty girl
of eighteen. who leaves her home at
ga Hill street every day and comes to
he lake for a swim Miss Walty is
one Of the most daring of the girls who
have made the sport popular.

FORECASTS END
Of NEGRO RACE
LOUISIANA EDUCATOR SAYS
BLACKS IN U. S. WILL BE Ex-
TINCT IN 220 YEARS.

New Orleans, La, Dec. II. - The
negro race in the United States will
become completely extinct approx
mately 220 years from now. The
last of the negroes will be a ne
gress, and she will die in the south,
These deductions came from Prof.
William Benjamin. Smith. noted
educator and professor of philosophy
in Tulane university, as result fof
his study of the United States cen
sus report fer Louisiana, just is
suied from Washington.
That report" said Prof. Smith,
shows that among the whites OF
this state the males are gaining in
proportion over ,tI ales in Lirth, a
sure indication Of the virulency and
increasing stamina of the whites.
But the same report also shows that
among the negroes the females are
gaining in number. Reports of 9TH
er states confirm this retroCressloa.
If the race were in the ascenden-
cy the male births would at least
retain an equal proportion. The
negro has come to the last two cen
turies of his being here. Slowly
but surely, his race will dwindle
in males Until there are less than one
tenth the number Of men compared
with women. Finally, if the law
works out to it's logical conclusion,
there will be but one negress left
in the United States, whose death
will occurr about 21S0 A. D."

in England through lack of native ap-
plicants, and it is hoped that the new
school will attract English boys into
this occupation.
The course of training in the school
covers one year Boys betN cen IA and
Ii are admitted, and receive general
instruction as well as technical train
ing. The curriculum is as follows:
English, 3 hours week; French Z
hours; Arithmetic, 3 hours; waiting
and pantry, etc, II hours; menus 8
hours; physical exercises, 1,2 hours;
total Of 81 1-2 a week. The pro-
fessional waiter who is employed as
instructor, like the chef-instructor Of
the cookery school, is allowed to in
crease his income by following his
vocation on the outside.
Many conditions have tended dur
ing recent years to widen the field OF
employment for walters, says the
British report on the plan. English
men have, as rule, not taken up
waiting seriously as a trade, bat only
as a last resource. There are, how
ever, a certain number of good Eng
lish walters who are regularly en-
ployed and never have any difficulty
in finding employment. The advan-
tage possessed by the young foreigner
is that he has already learned the ru
diments Of waiting, and although in
coming to this country he experienc
es the disadvantage of not knowing
the language, he is able to make him
self useful at once
The British authorities make 1t a
practice to found trade schools in
all trades where there are strong pros
rects of good employment. Hence
the prompt adoption Of this plan for
q school to train walters. In the pres
ent case it is also hoped to overcome
to certain extent the prejudice
against the occupation Of waiting
which is said to exist among English
parents. I'VE must make parents
see that the calling is an honorable
one, and requires both intelligence
and education says Rev. Stewart
HeadLam, a member of the London
County Council.
Similar schools for the training OF
walters have existed in Germany and
Switzerland for some time.
