Washington, D. c., Dec. 12.-Denun-
citation of the legal procedure under
which "a brown-hued, black-skinned,
thick-lipped brutal-hearted African
can walk into an Office of the law and
demand an edict guaranteeing him
legal wedlock to a white woman" was
one of many sensational features OF a
speech in the house today by Repre-
sentative Rodlenberry, of Georgia, in
favor of a bill to prevent inter-mar-
riages of whites and negroes.
Mr.. Roddenberry phophesied that the
legal sanction of mixed marriages ulti-
mately might bring this country to a
cont1ist. He declared that mo brutal
ity, infamy or degradation in all the
days of Southern slavery possessed
such villianous character and as atroc
ious qualities as the permission of that
marriage by the laws of this country"
The measure, the direct result of the
recent marriage of Jack Johnson, the
negro puglist, with a white girl, did
not get to vote.

GET MARRIED YOUNG men;
DIVORCES ARE EASILY PROCURED
Leap Year Doubled
Marriage Record

Atlanta, Dec. 12.-Leap year has
doubled last years marriage record in
Atlanta. Whether it is a tribute to
the progressive maidens of Atlanta, or
a reflection on the backward SWANS,
is thing that must be construed as
each individual reader sees fit, but the
fact remains. The year 1911 was not
leap year; only the men had the con-
ventional right to propose; and oaly
1.347 marriages took place in Fulton.
But this year was Leap Year and, ac-
corGing to custom and tradition the
girls could propose if they wanted to-
and it appears they did-and the mar
r:agos this year totalled 1891, or over
doIaie the total for last year.
These are figures for the marriage
of white people only. In the colored
statistics, Leap Year has seemed to
have its effect to q slight degree, too.
but the figures are not so startling as
for the whites.

During the Year

Atlanta, Dec. 12.--The total of first
and second divorce verdicts already
granted this year in the Fulton coun-
ty courts runs to 49S, and they are
not all through yet. This sets new
record for separations based on do
nestle infidelity in this locality. The
year of 1911 was a big year, too, for
the divorce court, but the total ran
only to 4S5,
The Superior court meets for di-
vorce session once every two months,
and as the figures show, turns out an
average of 80 each session.
The majority of the suits are of the
"undefended" variety, in which the

dozen contested divorce cases in

CAUSE OF The GRIPPE
How to Escape Its Dangerous After

With so much grippe prevalent this

Grippe is an infectious disease easily
taken when the system is in tired or

The best means of prevention are
to keep the blood in good, healthy
condition, and if the system gets into
weak, rundown condition, take vi
mol, our delicious cod liver and iron
tonic.

says: Grippe left me in a ner-
cot S, weakened, rundown condition,

EXPERT GARDENER
TO LAY OUT PARK
H. c. Sandusky Will Draft
Plans to Beautify the !
Hawkins Addition.

Harry C. Sandusky the we'll known
landscape architect OF Cincinnati, has
been secured by the Richmond Park
and Lake company to lay out the
drives and lots in the new park. The
exceptional natural possibilities offer
ed in this new addition make it one of
the most desirable locations in the
state for residence during the hot sum-
mer months. With the completion of
the mammoth dam, a large lake will be
created which will be fed by innumer-
able springs which abound in that ter
ritory. There are many other features
which add to it's attractiveness for a
summer home.
Plans and specifications for the dam
have been completed by John Mueller,
hydraulic engineer of New Castle, and
the company will advertise for bids
within the next several days. The dam
will be one which will be exceptional
ly substantial and one which will not
mar the beauty of the park.
The fourth payment has been made
on the park and lake stock. This leaves
only one more payment to be made un-
til it is fully paid up. The stockholders
have been very prompt in making their
payments, and indicate that they have
every disposition to assist in this
movement.
