he went to Pittsburgh. where he met
the Ill luck that nearly closed his life
on the diamond. 1t was in the season
OF 1905 hat he was receiving his trial.
and in a game against st. Louis he
slid into second, breaking his ankle.
Clymer never put on a Pirate uni

recover from the accident and be as

Immediately Altizer took the invalid.

bandaging the injured part. and ely

about as freely and exert himself as
much as he could before the mishap.
To this day Clymer never appears on
the ball field without the bandage in
casing his ankle In exactly the same
way as Altizer had instructed him.
Clymer remained with Washington
until the fall Of 1909. Cantillon then
knew that he was going to Minneapo-

INDORSED
Booster Campaign for Atlanta
Wins Favor - Button and
Slogan Suggested.

The Georgians suggestion Of $780,
600 Club for Atlanta, the purpose of
which shall be to boost Atlanta. in
season and out, to the end that its
population in 1920 may be 500,00 has
been endorsed publicly by number
Of AtIanta's most progressive and in
fuential citizens. and all that remains
now to make it a success is the CO.
operation Of citizens generally.
Everybody can speak a good word
for Atlanta, but it is desirable that
every booster have some sort OF iden-
tification certificate that will mark
him Immediately as from Atlanta
wherever he may be, no matter how
far from home.
II has been suggested that some
kind Of button be selected, that wear
ers may display constantly upon their
coat lapeis, and that it be suitably
inscribed with a catch phrase
phrase that may be made familiar
throughout the entire nation.
Plan Is Endorsed Generally.
This suggestion has the endorse
ment Of numerous citizens interest
ed in The Georgian's scheme to boost
and boom Atlanta, and every one to
whom it is mentioned at once puts
the seal Of his approval upon it.
One little sentence, You press the
button, we do the rest" once upon
a time made a small manufacturing
enterprise known from enc end of
the world to the other In a few
short years, through the advertising

greatest enterprise of it's kind on
earth and to-day is doing a business

annually.

Button Must Tell Volumes.
To be effective, the button must
speak volumes in a very few words.
1t must be designed to arrest the
attention of the most casual observer
and to prompt him, perhaps, to ask

Atlantans travel everywhere. There
is not a State in the Union to-day
that is not harboring from 80 to 5000
Atlantans abroad for one reason and
another.
Suppose each one of these loyal
citizens was wearing a button such

Wouldn't it be a fine business for

Miss CaIIie Hoke Smith Brings
Latest Fad to Atlanta From
Washington,

w dlhlIlS -SllNhS lbI illt SlllSs
The latest and most chic metropoi-
itan fad is the craze of the day in
Atlanta. Miss Callie Hoke Smith,
well known in Atlanta and Washing
ton society, introduced the novelty
here. She came from Washington last
week and appeared on Peachtree,
nonchaIantIy twirling a dainty jew
eled cane.
The idea appealed to other Atlanta
girls, and now you are not in it at
all if you don't tote" cane when
you come downstreet for the after
noon walk cross town"
The sticks are about two and one
half feet long and are either sterling
silver or gold mounted. Some Of the
more ornate ones are studded with
jewels.
Miss Mary Carl Hurst, one of the
prettiest and most popular members
of the younger set, is one of the first
girls to cary a stick Miss Hurst Is
of the opinion that the fad has come
to stay.
You know" she said, ut is such a
handy little thing to carry, and after
you get accustomed to carrying one
you would feel lost without it. l
think they are really sensible, too. It
is just about the most pleasing fad
for girls know of, and soon d walk
ing cane will be just as necessary an
article of wear as a hat
Another popular young lady eX-
presses the opinion that the best
thing about carrying a cane is the
protection it affords against Washers.
4 dare any rude man to say, Hello,
Bright Eyes to me now, she said.
I'd surely use my cane on him, and
it's no light affair either

How We Stand.

Without claiming that the fl
nal outcome will be affected
thereby, The Progress rises to
the personal privilege and pub
lie duty Of stating it's position on
a matter which will be taken up
by the Legislature next week,
soon after it reassembles after
the recess. We refer to the bills
which have been introduced,
looking to the creation of a pow
or in Tennessee by which the
law may be enforced in the large
cities Of the State. The Prog
ress twice supported Gov. Hoop
er on a platform demanding the
retention on the Of statutes the
present prohibition and election
laws and, in his last race especi-
ally, the enforcement of the laws
against the manufacture and sale
Of intoxicating liquors. Soon af-
ter Governor Hooper's first elect
ion came the revelation that the
laws Of the state did not give
the chief executive the power to
depose or in any way control
such mayors Of cities or judges
Of criminal courts, who unblush-
irg'y violated their oaths and

Governor. We believed Governor
Hooper's first statement that he
would if elected, leave undone
no effort, that he regarded as
within his power, to enforce the
laws, nor has our confidence IN
him ever been in the, least shak-
en- by the utterances of political
opponents and the whisky press.
The Governor has come clean"
has declined all compromises on
the liquor question, by whomso-
ever offered, and We trust that
the Legislature will give him
ample power to put to utter rout
the liquor makers and sellers
and criminal officials who are
dragging in the mire the good
names of our state and larger
cities. Governor Hooper is all
right and none but the criminal
element. their sympathizers and
the weak minded are afraid to
trust him with all power neces-
sary to drive the unlawful sa
looms, distilleries and breweries
from the state.

Republic.

Washington, Sept. l.-Unless Hu,

United States to assume an agrees
i've stand in the Mexican situation
This is the impression in official
circles here today. Every hour of de-
lay on the part of the Mexican gov
ernment in offering to this country
satisfactory basis for the resumption
of negotiations is serving to stir the
people Of the United States to rest
lessness. It is strengthening the def
ant attitude of the Mexican people.
As far as negotiations go the sItua-
ton is unchanged from what it was
two weeks ago. AS far as sentiment
in Mexico goes, the situation is as
grave if nos graver than before.
The government in Mexico on the
other hand, is far from passing, ac-
cording to press advices. Troops are
pelIS IdlScu' preparations s'S N'S =

cry advantage from the rising spirit
of patriotism occasioned by the con-
tinuea refusal of Huerta to knuckle
down to the demands of the United
States.
It may all be a bluff just as the
