TWAS ONLY A wAD OF GUM
Young Lady Put Her Trilby on 1t,
and Nearly Caused Two Men To
Grab Each Other by the Neck.

ATLANTA.-A wad of chewing
gum nearly precipitated a fight in a
local theatre here last night. Some
thoughtless person, after chewing it
assiduously, had dropped it on the
floor. 1t so happened that demure
Young lady who was in an adjacent
seat planted one of her dainty feet

FELKER'S DOUBLE ACTION BILL
WILL CURB DRINKING BUT STILL
SWELL STATE REVENUES.

Prima Facie Evidence of Possession
of Liquor Will Be Constipation.
Railroads Must Keep Records.
ATLANTA.-A measure for which
it's sponsor claims the solution of the
liquor problem in Georgia, providing
a state revenue tax on wine, beer and
whiskey, went to the senate Friday
from Senator j. H. Felker of Monroe.
Companion bills which Senator
Felker says will not only curb drink
ing and put the blind tigers out of
business but net the state great sums
were read for the first time.
The measures provide that rail-
roads and common carriers be re-
, CURED to file shipment lists with the
county ordinaries, these lists to ba
prima facie or presumptive evidence
of possession of liquor.
Then the comptroller general is to
issue stamps to the clerks of supe-
rior courts throughout the state,
similar to the ones now in use by the
federal government, taxing beer 10
cents a gallon, wine rs cents gallon
and whiskey 81 gallon. Every per-
son or corporation keeping liquor,
with the exception of common car
riers, are required to buy revenue
stamps. For failure to keep only
stamped liquor the violators are to
be prosecuted for a misdemeanor.
Common carriers failing to report
liquor shipments to the ordinaries
will also be adjudged guilty of
misdemeanor.

When a hard rain comes, does it
cut your cultivated hill fields full of
little gullies. Does muddy water run
down the little channels and into
the creek or the roadside bitches?
Are there a few big gullieS cut
through to the hard, unbroken soil?
Where these things happen, the
farmer is losing the best part of his
soil, and losing it forever. He will
have to plow and harrow and fertilize
and manure and grow legumes to re-
place the fertility which the streams
are carrying away. The writer has
seen, as have most readers, fields so
badly damaged by one hard rain that
years of work would be required to
restore them.
1t is evident to the man who
thinks, that this process of soil de-
struction cannot be allowed to con-
not to the extent 1t
has taken place in the past. To let
our lands continue to wash away, as
some old fields over the South have
already done, is to prepare for our
selves or for our children a time of
hardship beyond anything we have
ever known. The time will come
when this land will have to be re-
deemed and the man who has to re-
deem such land, and to depend upon
it for a living, while he does the
work, is going to do much hard work
for very little pay.
We must stop the washing of our
lands-not only the great devouring
gullies which bite away acres of Gull
tivated land and leave barren wastes
in it's place, but also the little often
unnoticed channels down which the
water runs, carrying with it the best
part of the soil. 1t is no easy task,
as anyone who has tried it knows.
Perhaps soil-washing will never be
entirely stopped, but we must at least
reduce it to such a point that our
hill lands will get better, instead of
poorer.
There are many things which will
help, but no one things which may be
called a remedy. 1t is a task for all
the years the land is cultivated, not a
thing to be done once for all.
Mduy lduOS COulu ooNOu IL OLA
washing simply buy judicious rota-
ton of crops with decent and Win
ter cover. To crop any land at all
rolling year after year, until the soil
is robbed of all vegetable matter and
has become dead and lifeless, is to
invite gullies. Terraces will solve
the problem in many cases-not
weed-grown banks and ugly bitches,
low broad swells of earth, or real
terraces one above another.
The hillside ditch may be neces-
sary in some cases. Tile drainage
will yet solve the problem for thous-
ands of acres, the writer feels GER

On land that is now being cultiVat-

some one in his bedroom dashed out
and found a man making off with his
clothes. He ran for the man, who
dashed through the hall door, and
before he could check himself Rug
giles was outside his door, which
swung to and latched behind him.
Ruggles made efforts to get his
door open or to scale the transom,
as several guests were approaching.
His efforts proving unavailing he Vas
forced to snatch up a length of the
hall carpet to drape himself.
Employees of the hotel, thinking
Ruggles was insane, took him thus
clad to n trunk room and sent for
the police before he could make them
believe his explanation.

An anchorage for the presidential
yacht Mayfower had been selected
off Thirty first street. 1t was planned
TO have Secretary Meyer and Rear.
Admiral Osterhaus visit the President
