As a matter Of fact, his full entitle-

That, however. was entirely too

make his own way in life, and so ne
elected to have himself called "E. D., q"
which inevitably evoluted into plain,
ordinary, old fashioned Ed" as time
ran on.
Ed Cole began his business career
with a total capital of $1.35. Besides
that, he possessed nothing beyond one

couple of pairs of socks and super
abundance Of energy and pluck.
He plunged into business for him

ATTORNEYS PASS
LIE AND BLOWS
IN MACON
Solicitor General Ross and Law
yer Harris Clash Over Trial
Of Vice Cases.

MACON, July 12.-Attorney Jesse
C. Harris brought about a sudden
adjournment of the special criminal
session of the Bibb Superior Court
yesterday afternoon by calling So
liCitor John p. Ross a liar and strik-
ing him in the face in the court
room. Harris was fined $50 for con-
tempt of court and also censured by
Judge Mathews for his conduct.
Harris represented fifteen women
of the restricted district who are
charged with operating disorderly
houses. In moving for a continuance
of these cases, he declared that So
licitor Ross would not call the cases
represented by any other lawyers, but
was seeking solely to prosecute those
represented by him CHarris).
That's a falsehood, your honor"
interposed the Solicitor.
You're a liar" shouted Attorney
Harris, striking the Solicitor in the
face.
Deputies seized both men imme-
diately.
He's a dirty little scoundrel; let
me hit him once" shouted Solicitor
Ross, but was restrained.
Judge Mathews held that the jury
was preiudiced in the matter of try
ing any of the defendants represent
ed by Harris. and as Solicitor Ross
refused to call any other cases.
though stating that he was prepared
for trial in all of them, the court
was adjourned for the term and all
parties discharged. The Solicitor
stated that Harris represented all of
the prominent defendants, and that
he did not propose to try the lessor
and weaker defendants first. There
are stars of varying magnitude in
Tybee (the vice district as well as
in glory" he said.

reach those foreigners who make a
business OF shooting rabbits. Per
sons who are not aliens may hunt

original bill which was stricken out
was to the effect that persons who
gave testimony against other per
sons violating the law should re-
celve half OF the fines. II was
thought by the committee that this
clause was a species OF premium
