Trying to Kid "
The Stage Kidder. -

Actors are queer folks" remarked
stage hand at the Forsyth Theater
yesterday, especially vaudeville ac-
tors. You would imagine they'd take
their professional efforts very much
in the nature Of work and want to get
away from II and every suggestion Of
II as soon az they are through with
their turn on the stage But the con-
trary is true
Vaudeville actors like 10 see each
other on the stage and they stand in
the wings afternoon and evenings
watching the acts that 10 before and
come after them with as much in
tcrest as do the people In the audi
enCe ! venture to say they get more
real enjoyment out of the perform
ance than many of those who pay 10
see a.
There's a great deal said and done
on the stage which the audience does
not catch For Instance, some actor
will stand in the wings out Of sight
Of the audience and carry on a KID
ding conversation with the people
aCting and they, in tmu will keep up
their end of the talk. The audience
does not hear H. but those back Of
the scenes DO. and enjoy II hugely
The great thing seems 10 be TO get
the goat of the fellow who rs doing
his best 10 amuse and entertain. The
kiddcr' In the wings will say all sorts
Of things 20 d5gConcert him OF
course. this doesn't happen all the
time. but 10 does occur frequently and
occasions lots of fun behind the
scenes"

FEEDSTUFFS CROPS
DECREASING FAST
Agricultural Reports Show GeOr-
gia Each Year Is Buying More
and Raising Less.

That Georgia is each year raising
less feedstuT for domestic animals
than it consumes and becoming more
dependent on other parts Of the coun-
try. is shown by reports Of the State
Agricultural Department. At the
present rate at which feedstuff
stamps are being sold, more than TO-
600 tons Of feed will be shipped into
Georgia from outside States than was
received last year
Stamp sales from January ] TO May
81. 1913 amounted to $l7,392.0S,
against l1,33lS0 for the same period
Of 1912. The total stamp sales for
1912 were $26,55O2O At this rate the
total for 1918 will amount to $40,
62lS0, an increase of $14,O71.60.
Stamps are placed on concentrated
commercial feedstuffs shipped into
the State. The present rate Of in
crease will make the increase more
than 70,O 900 tons for this year.
Practically all of this feedstuff
could be raised in Georgia" said J. J.
Brown, Assistant Commissioner Of
Agriculture. The increase oyer last
year will be more than 10000 tons.
This is regrettable and the farmers of
Georgia should busy themselves
There is no reason why all Of this
fcedstun should not be raised in this
state, and there is no doubt about the
farmer being able to dispose Of every
bit which he raises II would take
many years for Georgia to raise crops
equal TO the demand right here at
home"

ANOTHER MOVE

BY JAMES 3. NEVIN.

The old and proposed legislative
reform biennial sessions instead Of

the Georgia General Assembly when
il meets this month for its first sit
ting.
Despite the widespread sentiment In
favor Of this innovation throughout
the State, il never yet has been able
70 muster sufficient votes to put II
through. Il requires a two thirds
vote OF both Houses. Of course, being
a constitutional amendment, and this
always has been the stumbling block
in the way.
This year, however. friends OF this
reform believe they will be able to
consummate it, especially as 1t will be
coupled with other propositions likely
10 make II more acceptable TO the
Legislature.
Besides providing that the Legisla-
ture shall meet only once every two
years instead of annually the pro-
posed bill viii seek to raise the limit
Of aitting from 30 10 so days, and 10
put members on a fiat salary basis,
rather than on a per diem system Of

100 days, covering two sittings. Be
sides this, the members draw 10 cents

BE- making the salary Of the mem

distribution, and Hon. Frank Clark,

les to all in his district who request
same of him, addressing him at the

MRS. suLzER coNFEssEs IN AN
EFFORT TO SAVE HUSBAND
(By Associated Press.l

Albany. N. Y, Aug. Ex-Governor
William Sulzer was impeached by the
democratic majority in an assembly
of the legislature at an early hour this
morning, by vote of 70 to As.
An all night session proceeded the
roll call, the democrats marking time
while waiting for the arrival of suf-
ficient number of absentees to insure
a victory.
A sensational development proceed
ing the vote was the effort of Mrs.
Sulzer to save her husband by con-
Tossing that she took the campaign
funds and used them for speculation
without the knowledge of the gov
ernor.
After the impeachment vote was
taken, the assembly proceeded to
adopt long articles of impeachment,
embracing the charges against the
governor of diverting campaign funds
for personal use and making false
statements regarding campaign re-
ceipts, and these will be presented to
the senate today.
After this procedure the enemies of
Sulzer claim that he WI then cease
to be governor, but his friends say
that he can retain his office during
the trial
Many members stumbled into their
seats awaiting the roll call on the I'M
parchment provision. After this was
disposed of, the members passed on
to the bills which had been vetoed
bv Sulzer, and a recess was taken at
80 o'clock.
Governor Sulzer was asleep at the
executive mansion, and was not awak-
ened to be told of The results.
1t is believed that Mrs. Sulzer must
take the stand in the impeachment
trial if she would save the governor
There is some talk here that SulzeI
may order out the troops to prevent
his forcibIe removal before the trial.
but these rumors are given little Gre
dence.
Lieutenant Governor Martin II
Glynn, who will become governor Il
Sulzer is removed, refused to com
ment on the action of the legislature
today. Sulzer went to the capitol this
-norn;rr h,,f rof1Spd RI talk of the
matter.
| This is the first impeachment o.
any governor in tn ehistory OF the
state. The senate and court OF ap
peals will sit jointly for the trial This
tribunal can only remove the governor
from office and disqualify him from
| the rigth to hold an office of pubic
trust under the laws of the state.

AWAY FROM HOME

1t is said that a prophet is not
without honor save in his own land"
That does not apply to the Ocala
Banner, for we sometimes believe
that it is more or less appreciated if
not honored both at home and
abroad. But we were certainly made
to feel glad the other day when we
received an order for job printing
from Florence, S. c., the gentleman
stating that piece of work we did
for him when he was once in Florida,
the same class of work had been done
for him by a number OF other job
printing establishments, but none
gave him the same satisfaction as
that turned out by the Ocala Banner.
and he desired to have the order du-
plicated.
In this connection, we desire to say
that we have just purchased large
supply of new job printing material.
and are in better shape to do nice
job work than ever before. All we
want is a trial, for we know that sat
isfaction will follow.
Orlando will soon vote on a propo-
sition to bond for one hundred thou
sand dollars to pave her streets with
vitrified brick. Brick paved streets,
although costly in the beginning, in
the end are the cheapest, and of
course the best that can be built. In
Ocala, and here and there an excep-
ton, we harden our streets with lime.
In little while the rains wash the
lime to the curbings. force of hands
are kept employed removing it from
the curbings and hauling 1t away,
while other wagons are employed
hauling in a fresh supply of raw lime
to take it's place. 1t is almost as bad
as Flanagan, who was ION again, on
again. gone again." 1t would be econ
omy if Ocala would issue bonds for
the paving of her streets with vitri-
fed brick We ought to keep right
along with the procession.

VICTORIES IN ATHLETICS FOR
THE UNITED STATSS
fBy Associated Press.)

washington, Aug. 1S.-Despite the
dire predictions made for the present
year, 1913 has proved to date far from
being an unlucky period, so FAR as
American athletics are concerned. In
three international contests the Unit
ed States has successfully defended
both the polo and the canoe cups. ana
regained the Davis cup in tennis.
Three other international cup con-
tests remain to be decided in the
Harnsworth motor boat race, the
Palma rifle shooting contest and the
sender yacht competitions. Should
triple defeat be the portion OF the
United States in these remaining
matches-which is unlikely-the rec
objection of the sterling victories in
polo and tennis will go far to compen-
safe for the loss of trophies during
the autumn months.
The return of the Davis cup Is par
ticnlarly gratifying to American lawn
tennis followers, and the prediction is
freely made that the bowl is not like
ly to be won away again within the
next few years. The faith in the fu-
ture of the court game in this country
is not without foundation. With the
possible exception of baseball, there
are more tennis players welding rae
Duets than followers of any one other
sport in this country. Grass, clay ana
asphalt courts are increasing in all
parts of the states and the number
of players doublin galmost yearly.
One of the most encouraging signs IS
the fact that the youngsters are TAX
ing to the game and learning only the
technique, skill and stamina that goes
to make ranking contenders at the
leading tournaments

Queen, foreman in the National
Pencil Factory, where Mary Phagon
was recently murdered, testified in
the trial of Leo NJ. Frank today that
he was in the office of the factory
talking to Frank at 1920 o'clock on
the day of the girls disappearance.
This created somewhat of a sensa-
ton, as it was remembered that the
negro, James Conley, had told the jury
that Frank was closeted at this same
time with Mary Phagan, and that he
(Conley) was standing guard on the
outside.

chased in the Seymour addition.
which has the advantage of the shade
from a row of majestic oaks. and
which adds to its attractiveness.
Mr.. w. A. Robinson, one of the
head clerks for McIver & MacKay,
has recently purchased a lot on the
same avenue and is putting the lum-
Der, brick and other material on the
ground, and will soon begin the cree
ton of a two thousand dollar bunga-
low
There are several other new houses
in the immediate locality. the names
of whose owners we failed to ascer-
tain. There are quite a number of
very noticeable improvements, which
show that that section is pushing
ahead.
We we're shown the five-acre plot OF
ground that Mr. Seymour has set
apart for the new five thousand dollar
brick school building. 1t is a choice
spot for the purpose, as it is On
knoll which commands view of the
city and is susceptible of perfect
drainage. 1t is nearly square and
fronts on a sixty-foot street, and
the citizens in that section believe
will some day not so very far in the
future be traversed by a trolley car.
If we had a cheap electric current
the North End would soon be alive
with any number of manufacturing en-
terprises, and the people living there
believe that these things will soon
materialize.
AS it is, it is keeping pace with the
growth of other sections of the city

and adjoining the lot of Mr.. w. A..
Robinson, who is making preparations
to erect a two thousand dollar bunga-
