From the Attorney of Woman

$25, geo against w. S. Dozier, Pope
McClung, Duke Marshall, j. c. Do

her attorney, r. D. Feagin of Macon.
The action was brought in the
United States court, and would have
come up for trial at Columbus in
May.
The News learns that the amount
paid in settlement of the suit was
$500. and the attorneys for Mr. Do
zier state that the proposition for a
settlement came from the attorney Of
the plaintiff. The offer to settle, they
say, was accepted because it would
have cost Mr.. Dozier double that sum
to fight the case in the United States
court, even if he should win it.
Out of the $500 paid the plaintiff
must be paid the court costs and
Essie Carter's doctor bill, amounting
to about 5000
The suit grew out of whipping
given the Carter woman last July,
with which the public are familiar.

BANKERS RAP LEGISLATURE
One Says Half of Lawmakers Are
HIiterate, and Another Would Sc
cure LEGISLATION by Loans.

MACON, Ga.-The Georgia legis-
Iature received some hard raps at the
annual convention of Group Five of
the Georgia Bankers Association
here.
r. T. Persons, president of the
Farmers Bank of Forsyth, declared
that many of the Legislators could not
read, and that half of those able to
read could not even understand Or
binary matters.
Orville Park, of Macon, attorney
for the Georgia Bankers Association,
said the 500 bankers of Georgia
could easily exercise controlling
influence over the legislature, and
he urged the bankers to use this in
fuence toward obtaining the passage
of the banking reform bill, which
was not acted upon by the last SEES
sion.

senators, who are mostly young law
yers. come to you before going to
Atlanta to attend the legislature and

MOURN FOR THEIR BATHS

can era, were wont to rub new vigor
into weary Legislators are idle. All
of which has caused mourning in the
upper house.
This was determined upon at the
democratic caucus recently. The
democrats are disposed to think
that senatorial baths-free-are too
suggestive of Roman opulence. May

thought of losing their Jobs or going

sage trimmings, is much gratified
that the democrats have given effect

Committee.

ATLANTA.-Atlanta leaders OF or
ganized labor are rejoicing over the
fact that Senator Smith has been Sc
lected as chairman of the labor com
mittee of the senate. Unionist lead
ers say they realize that Senator
Smith has had some sacrifice to make
to thus serve the interests of his
friends among the ranks of organized
labor, and that they therefore appre-

evidence of the fact that he has long

the needs and requirements Of the

such investors usually have agents
who are responsible for the collection
of the rents and mortgages.
Penalties for Agents and Lawyers.
The law places upon these agents,
whose interest in the financial end of
the transaction is secondary to that
of the owner, the responsibility of
making the return under severe pen
atty. If a real estate agent, fiscal
agent or attorney who handles the
properties of a client coming within
the provisions of the law does not
voluntarily notify the collector of in
ternal revenue that his client owes
an amount under the tax he will be
held responsible and will be subject
to a severe penalty.
In this manner the men who wrote
the bill feel that they have removed
from the principal who might be in
terested in defeating the objects of
the law the power to do so by plac-
ing the responsibility squarely upon
the shoulders of the agent.

MONSTER CHICKEN HATCHERY
4 TEXAS MACHINE TURNS EN-
OUT. BY THE Wholesale.
A Biddy Comes Into Existence Every
Twelve Seconds in Every Twenty
Four Hours the Year Round.

There is now in operation in Port
OConnor, Texas, a machine that is
capable of turning out chicken ev-
cry twelve seconds for twenty-four
hours a day, and for three hundred
and sixty-five days in a year, says
Technical World. The mammoth
hatcher is the third of its type built
by the inventor, who was formerly a
poultry expert for the government.
1t is the second largest Matching es-
adjustment in the world, being
slightly exceeded in capacity by a
hatchery at Petaiuma, California,
which holds 1876, 900 eggs as against
1900 in the Texas machine,
Remarkable Feature.
Perhaps the most remarkable feat
ure of this plant is the fact that
all the eggs. together with room for
Gambling, chick packing and all en-
gines, fans and equipment, occupy
but single floor, ! G by so feet. Fur
nished with common incubators such
a room would have just about the
same capacity in three weeks as this
plant has in single day.
One of the unique Improvements
in the Texas plant is a turning sys-
TEN, by which the compartments
holding 10000 eggs are swung on a
pivot and the eggs turned by inyert-
ing the entire compartment This
enables one man to turn 100000
eggs in less than two minutes. These
eggs are ventilated and maintained
at an equal temperature by an eight
hundred pound centrifugal fan, re-
curing four horsepower to operate
it. and the temperature is regulated
to a tenth of one degree. while water
sprays. regulate the moisture to a
similar nicotY.
The eggs are not cooled from the
time they enter the hatchery until
they leave.
