He HAS SCHEME
TO SETTLE TROUBLE
IN OLD MEXICO

Washington, Dec. disappearing at
the capitol here with schemes which
he claimed would solve the Mexican
situation, man giving the name of
Thomas Welsh, of Paterson, N. j., was
arrested and held, pending an investi-
cation as to his sanity.
One of Welshs plans was to send an
American battleship to Mexico disguis-
ed as if coming from Spain, entice
aboard the leaders of both sides, then
sail off with them, thus breaking the
backbone of all revolutions by creating
lack of leaders. Another proposal
was that the government send into
Mexico a number of Spanish-speaking
soldiers who would take false guns
and paper ammunition and exchange il
for their real ornaments.

FORREST ADA|R AGAIN
HEADS ATLANTA SHRINERs

Atlanta, Dec. 22.-The man who was
chiefly responsible for bringing the
National Shriners thirty THOUSAND
strong to Atlanta this coming spring,
will still be head of the local Shrin-
ers' temple when they come. Forrest
Adair has again been chosen, for the
thirteenth time, as potentate of Yaa-
rab Temple Again and again during
the past thirteen years he has en-
deavored to resign, but his friends
have insisted that he remain at the
head of the organization
The thirteenth year, instead of be-
ing an unlucky number with him, will
witness the greatest Shriners' gather
ing ever held in the south. In fact, it
will be the biggest convention of any
kind, and the largest crowd that At
lanta, the convention city," has ever
had to entertain.

GOVERNOR WILL NOT
ISSUE PARDONS JUST
BECAUSE ITS XMAS

Atlanta, Dec. 22.-There will be nc
Christmas gifts in the shape of execu-
tive pardons in Georgia this year.
Governor John NJ. Slaton is dead set
against the custom Of pardoning con-
victs simply because it happens to be
Christmas time, and applicants for ex-
ecutive interference with the law have
to bring forward some more forcible
argument that that it would be a
pleasant thing for the prisoner to be
able to spend Christmas with his wife
and children.
Not that Governor Slaton is hard
hearted. He is the exact opposite, but
he believes in tempering mercy with
justice. He has granted during his
administration a number of pardons
which prove beyond question that he
has kind heart as we'll as a judicial
head, but he sees no reason why the
bars should be let down at Christmas
time more than at any other season Of
the eyar.
One or two pardons and commute
tons have been granted during this
latter part of December, but every
case has been simply on it's merits,
and would have resulted the same if II
had not been the Christmas season.

SOCIETY BELLS WORK
FOR SWEET CHARITY

Atlanta, Dec 22.-This will be the
most truly charitable Christmas At
lanta has ever known. Particularly is
this true among the society girls and
debutantes who have given their time
and energy for week past toward va
rious efforts to help in the streets sell
ing Red Cross Seals; others have par
ticipated in the various benefits for
the Empty Stocking fund; others have
worked hard for the success of the
teas and lunch-rooms and other bene-
fits, all to the same end, that some sort
! of Christmas be provided for the
unfortunates who are not able to pro-
vide their own.
This year the society girls of Allan
ia as a whole, have devoted twice as
much time and effort as ever before in
true Christmas work. They have been
conspicuous in it and when Christmas
actually arrives there will be many OF
them who are as tired as any shop
girl-tired but happy in the work they
lhave done.

AUTO POLO NOT
FOR TENDER ERF 00T
Filled With Thrills, and Also
With Spills for the
Players

Auto polo lis no game for tender
foot. 1t was introduced TO the sport
loving public of this city last night
at Pavilion rink and it thrilled big
crowd During the five periods of play
two players were injured as a result
of spills.
The team known as the Blues won
the opening game. defeating the Reds,
to 6.
c. r. Chapman, one of the star play
period of the game. He was thrown
headlong in the air as a result of a
clash and fell heavily to the floor He
was badly stunned and a substitute
was forced into the game.
The game is featured by remarkable
feats of driving. Speedy Chapman, who
played with the Reds, showed some
feats at the wheel that have never been
seen in this city before. He has the
reputation of being a daring autoist
and he has made descents of dangerous
mountain roads Of this country and
Europe that have given him an inter-
national reputation. He can almost
make a car turn on plate.
A slow ball was used last night,
which did not please the players. When
the next match Is played, tomorrow
night, Manager Gates proposes TO use
a fast ball, which will allow the play
ers to do more open work.
The game is fascinating and well
worth seeing. The players take all
kids of chances and devotees of the
sport are bad risks for a life insurance
company
The start of the game is one of the
most interesting features of It, The
machines start from the opposite ex-
treme ends of the hall. while the ball
Is placed In the middle of the floor.
At the crack of the pistol they race
after the ball at maddening speed. and
the first wallop is a big advantage.
Then the cars skid, slide. bump and
jam against each other. the only
thought the players have In mind being
to get the ball through the goal posts.
The final two periods of last nights
games We're easily the most exciting,
as the players let out full wraps and
took all kinds of chances.
The score was tied up to the last
period. The Blues scored two goals
in this to one by the Reds.
The teams lined up as follows:
Blues-Carl Pelleten. driver; Chris
Martin and Daredevil" Silva, mallet-
men.
Reds-c. R. Chapman, driver: Frank
