Mile. SpineIIi Is on Her Way
to America, and FoIIies Are
Travelling.

Atlanta, II seems, will lose the OPP
portunity it might have had to view
the most delectable attractions that
the American stage of next season
will offer.
For one thing, Mile. Spinelli is
coming to America in vaudeville, and
probably to Atlanta. And Mile. Spi-
nelll be II known, is the reigning SEN
satiOn of Paris, dear discriminating
Paris, because, besides her Winsome-
ness and charm, she is said to pos
sess the most artistic and perfectly
shaped legs in all Europe.
Everyone Knows Ziegfeld's Speciality.
And then Ziegfeld's Follies already
has started its 1913 tour. with At
lanta booked along the route All
the world and his brother knows that
Florenz Ziegfeld is a connoisseur Of
feminine beauty, particularly that va
riety Of beauty that is displayed to
best advantage by costume of tights
and abbreviated skirts In the Fol-
lies of 1913 especially are two young
women, Rena WandelI and Marjorie
Beverley, VINO are said to possess the
most artistic and perfectly shaped
neither limbs in all America.
In the theatrical world the legs of
| Spineln and those Of Ziegfeld's Fol-
| les cast have come to be regarded as
contestants for the crown of beauty.
At some time a decision must be made.
now that both parties to the contest
are in Atlanta, Atlanta might have
| had an opportunity 10 judge, but
But There's Boynton.
George NJ. BoyntOn, of the City
Council of Atlanta, has presented to
| that body a resolution asking for an
| ordinance prohibiting the appearance
of girls wearing tights or too short or
| scant dresses in theaters. The re-
porters who record the news and
views OF the Council are ready to
prophesy the passage Of the ordi-
/ nance. II they are correct, then it
means that Atlanta's most promising
stage features of the 1913 season
might as well be Cancelled.
For a Ziegfeld show decorously
clad is no Ziegfeld show at all, and
Spinelli with her artistic legs sheathed
/ IS a glory yelled.

gineer e. r. Conant of street paving

Looked Down on BY All.
Some of the criticisms of Mr.. Page
in the review of his book follow:
I'VE found that Nicholas Worth.
the prOfessed author of the book, was
a man whose environment in the
South had evidently been among per
sons who were not recognized in that
section as typical-in fact, who had
no social recognition whatever. but
who lived to themselves and were
looked down upon by whites and
blacks alike.
There are scenes in this book that
are so coarse that we will not bring
them into this review. 1t is sufficient
to say that they were used to Willy
the white race.
Nicholas Worth and his kind new
er stood socially high in the South;
he was no gentleman; his associates
were not gentlemen; his antecedents
had a defective sense Of the differ
ence that exists between right and
wrong.
Nicholas Worth holds Confederate
veterans in utter contempt, and
throughout his book Confederates are
roundly abused, and he also abuses
their organization and other Southern
patriotic bodies, such as the Daugh-
ters Of the Confederacy. Nicholas
Worth denies that there was any in
tellectuality among the women Of the
South. He frequently speaks of the
lack Of culture of all the people
among whom he was reared
Ashamed of Section.
Nicholas Worth, the Southerner,
! is ashamed of being a Southerner. He
/ holds that there is no negro social
| problem. He does not find objection
able the marriage of a mulatto girl to
white man. He meets the negro
woman on the terms Of equality.
The book now becomes important
| because of Mr.. Pages position as the
Ambassador of all the American peo-
| pie to Great Britain. In London the
| book is being hailed as a true express
sion Of the South, for Mr.. Page was
! born in the South, and they naturally
| suppose that Southern President
| appointing man of Southern birth
| has appointed representative
| Southerner,"

The result Of the c0roner's hearing was 9 verdict of death at the hands of Hampton while

 Before the coroner, Sheriff Haynes testified that about six weeks ago,
 James Rowe, and Mrs. Hampton had called at his office and complained Of
 Hampton. Mrs Hampton said she
 and her husband had separated and
 that from remarks which he had made
 she believed that ne might do her
 bodily harm. Rowe and Mrs. Hampton
 refused to swear out complaint
 against Hampton but suggested that

 harm her, to which Mrs. Hampton re
