An Englishman and American
were discussing the beauties of the
English and American girls.
Our girls have such long hair, "
said the Englishman, that when they
take it down it falls to their waists.
That's nothing, responded the
American, when the American
girls take their hair down, it drops
to the floor"

construction, both within and
without, except for some neces-
sary inside ornamental wood

Motorcycle Races July 4th
Furnish Moneys Worth of
Excitement.

Three thousand people gather
ed at the fair grounds last Fri
day to celebrate the Glorious
Fourth, saw the most spectacular
motorcycle races ever run il
South Georgia, when Lawrence
Glover, riding an Indian Twin,
finished first, making the ten
miles in thirteen minutes fiat.
The riders, Frank Schmitz,
Geo. Wooten and Lawrence
Glover, lined up for the start.
Schmitz took the lead, with GLOW
er second and Wooten third for
the first three laps, when Wooten
went out with a fouled spark
plug. The thrill of the race came
in the fifth lap, when Schmitz,
after finishing the fourth lap in
thirty-six seconds, with Glover
only a few feet behind, skidded
on the top curve, ard his machine
threw him some thirty feet.
Glover missed running into him
only a few inches, but Frank, IN
daunted, picked himself up out
of the dust, ran back and grab
bed his machine and was away
before Glover had made a half a
lap. Glover's riding for the
balance of the race took the spec
tators almost off their feet and
all agreed that the race was the
best they had ever seen.
Fitzgerald can boast of some
swift riders, with the nerve to
open up the Indian Twins, for the
time made, thirteen minutes for
ten miles, on a fiat half-mile dirt
track, is seldom bettered.
The boys deserve much credit
for the excitg race they furnish
ed and should receive the support
Of all sport loving citizens in their
efforts to get the track in better
condition for future races. They
promise the best races ever seen
in Georgia for the Fair this fall.

Sensational Charges
Against Atlanta Police

Atlanta, July "a declaration
has been made directly to Chief of
Police Beavers by a responsible
business man that an organized
system exists in Atlanta for the
ruin of young girls for profit al d
that individual members of the
police force have connived in, en-
couraged and protected the traffic.
The story is by far the most SEN
sational which has come out in
connection with the police scandal.
IL is in substance a definite forma-
Iization of accusations which have
been made before more vaguely,
that though Chief Beavers himself
is an honest upright official, fright
full corruption exists, unknown to
him, in the police ranks.
The chief has taken the bull by
the horns, and is leading in an in
vestigation to ascertain the truth
of these charges, On receiving
the details of this alleged clique to
debauch young girls, Chief Beav-
ers has put special detectives on
the case, instructing them to verl-
fly every charge if possible, and
not to stop no matter where the
trail led them.
Indeed the charges are too def
mite to be ignored. Five places
are mentioned by the business man
one of them on a principal street
in the heart of the city. 1t is
that two notorious women
preside over this place ard daily
decoy into it as many as ten or a
dozen young girls ranging in age
from ~ to Is years. 1t is said
that the victims are led through
the rear Joor of this building into
another house.
Another feature of the new
charges and individual members
of the police force is that there are
several disreputabe clubs where
police officers are in the habit of
and drinking whiskey
while off duty.
1t is significant fact that raw
as all these charges are, not one
breath of scandal has touched Chief
Beavers personally.

GHOST STORY FOUND BELIEF.
Suit That Presented ciresmstantiai'
Evidence IN Favor Of Those Claim,
Ina 10 See Il.

One Of the most circumstantial
stories Of apparitions is that Of Old
Booty's ghost, which is said to have
been the subject Of an action in the
kings bench in 1858, relates the
London Chronicle. It arose from 3
statement by certain Captain Bar
naby that when shooting rabbits on
the island Of Stromboli, in the Medi-
terranean, on Friday, May Is, 1887,
he had seen Old Booty, his next door
neighbor, running into the burning
crater there, pursued by the devil.
Mrs. Booty, the widow, had the cap
tain arrested, and claimed a thou
sand pounds damages for what he
had said.
But when the case was heard it
was proved that Old Booty actually
died within two minutes Of the time
he was said to have been seen on
Stromboli, and that all the circum-
stances Of the apparition we're noted
in the journals Of three ships cap
tains present. And on Old Booty's
clothes being produced in court they
were identified BY all the witnesses
for the defense as those worn by the
man who ran into the burning era
ter. Mrs. Booty lost her case, the
Judge remarking: :gThe Lord have
mercy upon me and grant that I
may never see what you have seen.
One, two or three witnesses may be
mistaken, but thirty never"
