Through the thick smoke flashes of

formed a huge mushroom, the man
dropped from the cross-bar. For 200
feet he fell like stone while the peo-
pie nearest the shore gasped.
Then the big parachute which the
man carried unfolded and. clinging to

Atlanta Proves Its Infinite Variety of Weather
PROPHETS BRING CHILL

Just TO prove Atianta's infinite Varie-
ty and establish her claim to having
more different kinds Of weather in a
week than any other city between KEN
nebec and Albuquerque. Professor c.
F. VonHerrmann, proprietor Of the To-
cal cave of the winds, served up a dish
right off the ice today in honor of Will
lis L. Moore, chief of the national bu-
reau, and eighteen forecasters from va
rious states. 1t was 80 degrees above
zero at breakfast time, the coolest
morning of the fall.
1T is fine" spake the first forecaster
who came out on the veranda for a bit
of fresh air. only I didn't bring my
overcoat."
Uncle Hi Suggs the veteran unotfi-
cial prophet of Battle Hill, who was
still waiting for a conference with Pro
fessor Moore, snorted in derisiOn.
Uncle Hi Knew It.

Yesterdays prediction for today was
fair" but no reference was made TO
the wisdom Of putting an extra blanket
on the bed. Most of the experts inter
viewed refrained from expressing an
opinion on the cause of the drop in
temperature, except TO remark that a
marked diminution Of the perpendicular
altitude Of the closely confined column
Of mercury might easily be expected
to be manifested in the period between
the autumnal equinox and the Easter
parade, But other forecasters were not
hesitatnt In expressing their opinions
as to the cause OF the cold.

about largely because the avenues OF
publicity were in a large measure
choked,' so far as he was concerned.
"To me that seemed a pretty vicious
oackslap at the newspapers-for if the
newspapers ever were kind to anybody
in the matter of publicity, they have
been exceedingly kind to Mr.. Roose-
welt
on the contrary, notice Mr.. Wilson

ful and entertaining in the pers.

Looks to me as If 7. r. may be
little sore, whereas Wilson is very well
satisfied. with the newspapers. Seems
to me, too, that Wilson'S remark should
make him mighty solid with the press.
The Savannah News voices a univer-
sal protest throughout the state of
Georgia when it says, in recent issue.
Inc statement that funds in the
state treasury are at u low ebb and
that 1t Is difficult to find enough for
necessary expenses reveals no new
condition of affairs. There will be
but little money in the treasury
until the tax money begins to come
in late in December. Meanwhile
the school teachers have not been
paid and the state has been forced
TO borrow a large sum. With
wealthy and prosperous common
wealth, whose property values in
crease many millions Of dollars
every year, this kind of tinancfering
is childish. With proper lesisla-
tive foresight, all the states obliga-
tions could be met, its institutions
cared for and comfortable balance

AT the last meeting of the investi-

Shortly after the sanitarium opened

with tubercular throat trouble. | saw
him in room near the porch, and told
DR.. Merritt at the time the patient was
too feeble for extended treatment I'M
less he was in bed. AS soon as | had
finished l said that the man should be
helped back to the ward, because he
was in a bad way.
"Dr. Merritt said to let him alone;
that he could get back all right by him

him and assisted in getting him to the
ward My only comment at the time
was that such patients should be treat
ed in bed, or else that q wheel table
should be provided to take them TO the
examination room.
Mistake Was Possible.
The institution was new, ana one
could not expect all of the facilities Of a
fully equipped place to he present.

asked if I had ever seen anything my

had I seen any such thing, and it might
have been mistake; so | would not
mention it. Evidently. my remark has
been interpreted as having q different
