Atlanta. June 21.-A wad of chew

in a local theatre here last night.
Some thoughtless person, after chew
ing it assiduously had dropped it On
the floor. 1t so happened that a de-
mure young lady who was in an adj
jacent seat planted one of her feet
right on the chewing gum. Then she
leaned forward with soulful look in
hey eyes and watched the progress
of the love drama.
In about five minutes she started
to relax her tense position and shift
her feet. To her amazement some
thing tugged at her left foot. 1t was
merely the chewing gum which had
blued her slipper to the floor, but she,
modest thing, though man on the
otter side of her was trying to play
feet" with her She turned crimson
and whispered something in her es-
cort's ear. He leaned over to the
other man with How dare you sir,

 A man in RanSOOn bought three young elephants to send to England. They were tame and playful, but cun- ming. Knowing that it was wrong to steal paddy (unhUsked rice)-the idea had probably been impressed on them by punishment for stealinE-they would not touch il themselves. But if q boy went to see them he would be seized by one. the little trunk would be cOiled about his arm and he would be led to where the paddy was kcpt in bags
 The elephant would make cats paw of the boys hand to take up d handful of paddy. Then. letting go, he would turn up the end of his trunk, open it. and coaXingly invite the boy to drop in the paddy
 Should the boy, however, put it back in the bag. his arm would again be seized by the trunk and his hand would be inserted into the paddy bag.
 The boy. anxious to be released. would usualy drop the paddy into the trunk. and the elephant would blow the rice into his mouth. After re- beating the operation several times, the elephant would scampcr off. feel ing that he had got the paddy. with out stealing it

WASHINGTON. March 12.-For more than three hours tonight the senate, in one of the stOrmicst and most protracted executive sessions in recent history, debated the confirma- ton of Mahlon w. Pitney. whom President Taft has nominated for the supreme bench. The senate final
 ly agreed to resume the debate at noon tomorrow and vote on the con- firmation at o'clock. A rough can vass made by Chancellor Pitneys supporters after the fray tonight showed the vote will probably be close and that there is some danger of rejection. Culberson of Texas led the attack. In his speech and those of others. the New Jersey judge was assafled in bitter language. which extended even to an attack on his general fitness for the bench. The fight was based mainly on Pitney's decision in the glass bottle blowers
 case, a decision which restrained the journeymen green glass blowers of New Jersey some years ago from using coercion or persuasion to make loyal employees leave their work. The decision prohibited strikers from per sonally molesting strike breakers in any way and interdicted picketing and boycotting Cummins of Iowa pictured the decision as oppressive of American labor oGornan and
