SIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
By JAMES B. NEVIN.

Nash r. BrOyles, recorder Of the po-
lice court Of Atlanta and candidate for
a seat on the court Of appeals, talks
interestingly Of the suggestion recent
~ advanced that he is "A candidate Of
the prohibitionsts." and that there is
objection 70 him in south Georgia be-
cause he halls from Atlanta, where
one Of the present judges Of the court
Of appeals lives"
Mr.. Broves SAYS:
Il am toting my own skillet ] am
not running on prohibition platform.
for there are other questions in Geor-
gia as important as the prohibition
question.
i stand IN my race for the enforce
ment OF all Of oar laws which. Of
course, includes the prohibition law.
and for the adjustment Of the old
moss grown technicalities which him
der impede and defeat justice in our
courts
The only argument for not eecting
me is that one Atlanta man already
is on the court submit 10 the peo-
pie Of Georgia that this reason Is not
a sound one. If | am elected. shall
represent on the court Of appeals, not
Atlanta, but Georgia
Il submit that he only fair sound
question in this contest is, not whether
an Atlanta man or a Biakely man
should be elected bur of the two can
ddates, which one is the better quail
ihed to serve the people of Georgia on

OUR EARLY RAILROADS.
Rules That Used to Be In Force Half a
Century Auo.

A curious relic of railroad operation
some fifty years ago in Tennessee and
Georgia is exhibited In the following
extracts from the rules then In force:
Each engineman will keep watch,
which must be regulated by the time of
his conductor at the commencement of
each trip and will always have in his
possession the current schedule book.
Should any stock be killed which
may be likely to endanger the safety
of the next train passing. the engine
man will stop his train until track is
cleared.
As general rule. when trains meet
between stations the train nearest the
turnout will run back. Any dispute
as to which train has to retire is TO be
determined at once by the conductors
without any interference on the part
of the enginemen. This rule is re-
quired to be varied in favor of heaviest
loaded engine or the worst grades. IL
they meet near the center. in case of
backing, man must be placed on the
lookout, so that any danger to the rear
most part Of the train may be seen and
the engineman at once receive notice.
The backing must be done cautiously

TO BURY EMPEROR
AT DEAD OF NIGHT
Priests to Chant Weird Music at Fu-
neral of Japan's Late
Ruler.

Toxic, Aug S.The funeral arrange
ments for the late Emperor Mutsuhito,
who died July 80, have been completed
by the special bureau which has been
sitting since Aug. |, The date of the
funeral ceremony at Toxic has been
fixed for Sept. l3 in the night, and the
interment is to take place at Momoyama
on Sept. Ia.
Kyoto was the site of the imperial
palace almost 10 centuries prior to its
removal to Toxic Is years ago, and it
is there most of the former emperors
are burieds The resting place of each
emperor is made a park, beautifully kept
with rare trees and flowers. The late
Emperor Mutsuhito will be buried in one
of the pine-covered hills near the pictur-
esque old capital of Kyoto.
1t is the imperial custom that the fu-
nerals of the members of the royal fam
lily are held during the night. The night
is the time for rest and peace, and the
night is the time for deep mourning.
At the funeral, uniforms of all kinds
will be discarded, except those of army
and navy officers. The people who will
in the service will wear the
old japanese costumes. The new EN-
peror will wear the old costume, which
he has never worn in his life. Every
thing will be of the old Japan of many
centuries ago.
