Prospects Bright for
Good Teams at Emory

EMORY COLLEGE, OXFORD. GA.
Sept. 24.-With about four weeks to
60 the Emory interclass football sea-
son will be under way. and the pros
poets are extremely bright for an en-
tertaining session.
Professor J. p. Hammer. coach of the
senior team of 1912, will very likelv
train the present senior bunch as
their coach, DR.. F. n. Duncan, has
left the faculty of Emory. By this
arrangement it is thought the fresh
men are now without a coach, bur
something will be done in the next
few days, if the 1917 men intend to
make their reception warm.

The Soldier-Jacket game has been
ofhcially called off. Both teams are
far from being in the best of shane

staged on one of Techs open dates
later in the season.

MOTOR TRUCK FELLS
BIG TREE IN CRASH
First CoIlides With Car and
Then HurIs Giant Trunk Into
Walls of N. E. Church.

A big tree. nearly a foot In diameter,
stacked up against the side of the Ham
line NJ. Z. Church, Ninth and = streets
northwest, Is mute evidence today of
one of the most unusual automobile ac-
cidents that ever occurred in Washing
ton.
A big truck of the quartermaster's de-
partment of the Government was COM
ing down Ninth street at a lively clip
yesterday afternoon when something on
the pavement caused il to skid. The
rear of the truck was thrown directly
in front of a southbound Brightwood
car. which was also making all the
speed the law allows.
The collision gave the truck increased
momentum. and with the heavy load
the truck crashed into a tree on the
corner. cutting II off near the bottom
almost as clean as IL 1t had been
sawed. The tree was thrown up
against the side of the church, and
before the chauffeur could get the truck
under control It had started up the
side of the building
The automobile was not badly dam
aged, and after a few minor repairs
had been made II was able to proceed
under its own power. W. F. Scott,
Of 926 Florida avenue northwest, who
was riding on the truck, was pain
fully hurt on tie legs, but declined
hospital treatment.

POWER TO PREVENT
MERGER IS DENIED
Proposed Utilities Combine in
District Files Demurrer to
Case in Court.

Attacking the right of the District &c
maintain such a suit and questioning
the Jurisdiction of the court, demurrers
have been filed to the bill seeking to re-
strain the. merger of local public service
companies with the Washington Util-
tiles Company, the s50,0O0,9O0 Virginia
corporation.
1t is set forth that the bill filed by
the Corporation Counsel is muitifarIous
and that remedy lies at law rather than
in equity If there is any grounds for a
complaint. The contention is also made
that the bill does not show that any
acts have been accomplished or capable
fbeing accomplished for which the
defendants are answerable to the Dis
trict.
A further argument is that there
Is no municipal rule, or power to
make one, which would be violated by
any of the acts alleged to have been
accomplished by the alleged merger
or capable Of accomplishment by the
oefendants. It Is also urged that no
frauds are shown to have been per-
petrated upon the District, or viola
tiohe OF Its rights, which would give
the District a standing in court of
equity to seek on injunction
Jurisdiction Is Denied.
The demurrers also contend that
the District has not visitorial pow
ers over the s50.000.0 900 corpora tion
which have been assumed in the bill
for the Injunction and that the court
is without jurisdiction to restrain
or prevent the purchase of stock of
any of the local utility companies
named in the bill of complaint.
1t is averred that the bill does not
disclose how the fluctuations in the
market value of the shares of capital
/. stock of the Washington Railway and
Electric Company would work injury to
the District or the public or any of the
stockholders of any of the defendant
companies.
The demurrers filed are In behalf of
twentyeight defendants named In the
bill filed by Corporation Counsel
Thomas on November 25 In addition
to the Washington Utilities Company,
Washington Railway and Electric Conn.,
pany, and more than 1000 stock holders

To Renew Complexion
Without Cosmetics
(From The Dermatoiogist.)

If the excessive user of cosmetics
only knew the impression her artific-
iality really makes upon others, she
would quickly seek means of gaining
a natural complexion. Let her acquire
the mercolized wax habit. Discarding
make-ups entirely, and she will soon
have the kind of a complexion that
women envy and men admire It's so
easy to get an ounce of mercolized
wax at any drug store, use nightly
like cold cream and wash it off morn
ings. And the results are so remak-
able. Gradually the lifeless cuticle
peels OFF, in almost invisible faky
particles. In a week or so there's
brand new complexion. clear, velvety,
soft of girlish color and texture. The
treatment is so simple, harmless and
1narvelously effective, the wonder is
that every woman whose skin is rough,
withere discolored, chapped, freckled
or pimpled, has not already adopted it.
Let wrinkled women quit pastes
ard massage creams which mar the
skin still more and try this more SEN
sible treatment: Dissolve one ounce
powdered saxolite in one-half pint of
witch hazel: use as face bath Ev-
cry line will quickly disappear

The following we'll authenticated
ghostly happening is recorded in Jessie
Adelaide Middleton's 1.-The Grey Ghost

A lady had taken a furnished house
In Suffolk. England, from a widow who
had lately lost her son. One day she
was sitting in the drawing room when
the figure of a boy Of about thirteen
walked across the room, halted oppo-
site a table on which was some china
and began to weep bitterly. When she
got up and fastened toward the boy to
comfort him he at once vanished. As
the same thing occurred repeatedly, the
lady wrote to the owner of the house.
seeking for some explanation. This
was her answer:
xviii you kindly search the table
with the china ornaments on it, and il
you find sixpence in any of them put it
into the poor bag in church? l gave
him sixpence to put in the bag the last
Sunday he went to church. and instead
of putting it in he kept 1t to spend. He
told me about 1t before he died. but
did not knew where he had hidden it."
The tenant searched and found the
sixpence in a little china jug. She put
It into the poor bag-and was never
again visited by the apparition.
