WATCH

A good watch is a good companion. Watches for men, watches for ladies: watches for boys Gold watches, siI- yer watches, gun metal watches. In view of close relationship and the many important engagements you trust to your watch, it is absolutely necessary to carry watch that you can depend on. We are conscientious in the statement that our watches are tworthy-absolutely dependable; you will not have to make excuses for being late if you carry watch pur- chased at our store. Our watches are always on time and keep their owners on time.

My opportunity to go back to the
stage came when Joseph and HIS
Brethren was produced at the Cen
fury.
"All of my expenses have been met
from my own income since I returned
to my profession-a heavy expense for
one who had become accustomed to
the luxury of Mr.. Andrews life that
had been thrust upon me. But with
my brave little mother beside me I
have been doing my best-my motto
being, Single blessedness forever
more
"Of course, I have struggled in the
past-worked hard before getting my
chance to rise from the chorus. Then
it was pleasant, indeed, to step into
position of affiuence and to have a
home, but these do not bring happi-
ness without the things that make a
home lovely. So l am back to work"
Efforts to reach Mr.. Andrews were
futile. His secretary stated for him
that he would have nothing to say.

PONY CONTEST
CANDIDATES To
MEET IN PARK
BOYS and Girls viii Be Enter
tanned by Manager Of Race at
Grant Playground.

Bows and girls in The Georgian and
American pony contest will enjoy an
informal gathering at Grant Park
Sunday afternoon, at the invitation
of the contest manager. The ponies
will be on hand, and there will be
rides and drives for all who care to
enjoy this pleasure.
Parents of the contestants are par
ticularly invited. The contest man.
ager is anxious to meet them and to
discuss with them ways and meanA
of helping the contestants through
the last few days of the race. Six
teen more week days only remain
before the contest ends. Six days
only remain during which the bonus
offer is in effect.
Race Keeps Close.
There is no candidate who can
claim yet to be a winner. There is
not enough difference between the
leaders and the tail-enders so that
any one can say who will get a pony.
This is as it should be. 1t makes
the contest interesting up to the very
last.
The bonus offer should inspire ev-
cry contestant. Ihere are 10000 eS-
ira votes to be awarded for every
club of S35 turned in for subscrip-
tions; 1880 extra votes will be Civ
en- for every club of $25 and 5000
for every club of SIS.
Assuming that a contestant turned
in six yearly subscriptions; he would
turn in $3.50 and be credited with
21,000 votes. In addition he would
be credited with a $35 club, and 20
900 extra votes in consequence. In
other words. the voting power under
such circumstances would almost be-
doubled-41000 votes for $3.50 in
subscriptions. But the beauty of this
club offer is that the clubs need not
be made up of yearly subscriptions.
They can be made up of short term
subscriptions, even one month trial
orders.
Should Use Every Effort.
The contestant who does not
strain every nerve to take advantage
of this chance is foolish, and is not
doing his full duty to himself, or to
the friends who are aiding him.
Sixteen more working days only re-
main. The strain of the contest soon
will be over, and the contestants may
take a well-earned rest. Naturally,
1t will be much more fun to rest and
recreate with the aid of a pony and
cart than to rest, thinking of defeat.
That is why the next two weeks
should be crammed with effort, and
we'll directed effort.
Keeping everlastingly at it brings
success" says the contest manager
and he is right.

KNOXVILLE FAIR
To MAKE LAND
SHOW FEATURE
Value of Soil Will Be One of the
Principal Lessons of Conser-
walton Exposition.

KNOXVILLE, July 12.-ReaIizing
that land IS primarily the basis of
all wealth and that from the land
must come food and clothing for
the present and future generations,
the management Of the National Con-
servation Exposition has prepared for
the greatest land show ever held IN
the South and one Of the greatest
land shows ever held anywhere.
Scientists say that the land Of the
United States Ea&s: be conserved,
must be nurtured and cared for, must
be nursed and doctored and in no
wise maltreated IL the nation is to
maintain its present proud position at
the head of all the nations OF the
earth
Tremendous Land Building.
1t is to teach the lesson of the
necessity Of conserving lands. as we'll
as Of teaching the lessons OF conser-
walton of other resources, that the
National Conservation Exposition
comes into being. In the big new
land building on the exposition
grounds the land show win be held.
The land building. completed to the
last nail, is one of six big EXPOSE
ton buildings erected for the Con-
serva ton Exposition Attached TO it
Is an annex with an auditorium that
will seat 1900 persons. The United
states Government display in the
land building as we'll as State displays
will be particularly fine and compre-
hensive The exposition will open on
September l and viii continue until
November |.
Merchants to Visit Fair.
incidentally, Knoxville is planning
a great boosting campaign to be con-
Quoted in connection with the eX-
position.
Fifteen thousand merchants and
jObbers in the territory contiguous
TO Knoxville have been invited to visit
the city while the exposition is on
The invitations have been sent out by
the Commercial Club Of Knoxville
The entertainment of these out Of
town buyers is part of a general
boosting movement that is astir in
Knoxville and has been inspired by
the exposition. The merchants and
jobbers of Knoxville are making ev-
cry effort to extend their trade and
figure that while the exposition is in
progress there will be a large influx
Of visitors into the city. Hence the
plan of inviting the outside merchants
to Knoxville. ACceptanCes to the in
vitations are being received rapidly.

on their farms as these pesky con-
du-tors earned In their vocation
and that the poor farmeE was in
danger of becoming a serf to the
aristocraCy of union labor"
Called Indictment to Murder.
Here is a man clamoring for the
supremacy of the law" and vet
he says that If another strike is
brought about, and railroad is tied
up, then, We gods! the people will
rise in their anarchistic wrath and
burn the homes of the strikers and
'heir families will be scorched by
the flames, and perChance these
1000 wicked and desperate railroad
employees would likely be hanged to
1000 lampposts!
What is this but a crazy incite-
ment to murder
Governor Brown concludes his
speech by eXtolling the action of
the militia in killing three non-of-
Tending citizens of Augusta during
the street car strike, a short time
previously But as surely as God
lives, the militia, who ruthlessly
and unlawfully shot these innocent
victims down in cold blood are
guilty of manslaughter.
These people were not connected
with the strike. They were simply
going alone the public streets.
wholly ignorant that the military
had established an imaginary, or
unmarked, dead line There was
nothing of a physical nature to
show that any such dead line" had
been ordered or fixed, and no pre-
Nlous warning was given them. or
known command given to halt.
Nothing in this whole wretChed
speech shows more Convincingly
Governor Browns true bent of
mind than this laudation of half
cooked irresponsible militia. Gov
ernor Brown is another Glasscock
of West Virginia, types of men who
would violate Federal and State
Constitutions by eXalting the mill
tary above the civil powers. He
would substitute military rule for
civil government, running ruthless
ly counter to the very spirit and
letter Of republican institutions.
Legislation Is Dangerous.
The act of 1912 is the most in
sidiously dangerous piece of legis-
lation ever enacted in Georgia. The
first bloody fruits of such Iegisla-
ton were made terribly manifest at
Augusta. What locality will suf-
fer next?
The Augusta massacre should be
Investigated by a legislative COM
mittee.
The workingmen, particularly of
the South, being Ito the manner
born, object to having their labor
regulated by bullets and bayonets,
as did their fathers powerfully re-
volt against Federal bayonetS and
bullets, regulating their ballots dur
ing Reconstruction days.
We of the South. laborers and
capitalists alike, and other classes
of citizens, are of good old Amer
lean stock, a homogeneous people,
songs of Revolutionary sires. peo-
pie who won't submit to military
ascendenCy over the civil authori-
ties
In conclusion, we beg to say that
while organized labor has its faults
(what institution or organization
has not?) 1t is the only practical
method yet devised by man which
measurably protects and uplifts the
working classes. and until some bet
ter plan be devised il will continue
to be the greatest power for good
to the toilerS of the civilized world.
And il has no apologies TO make
to the Browns. and Posts. and kir-
bys and Parrys. and others who let
their spleen beCloud their judg-
ments and embitter their hearts.

Beautiful Actress Says He Tired of Being
Pointed to as Man Who Married Her.

NEW YORK. July 12.-Pauline
Frederick. the actress-wife of Frank
NJ Andrews, the well-knoWn arChi-
teCt, who last autumn returned to
her beloved profession, bent upon re-
establishing herself as one of the
leading women on the American stage,
is playing a real life part similar 10
that of Sarah in The Little Prin-
cess" it was learned yesterday.
The sudden change of social station
for this beautiful young woman, she
declared yesterday to reporter for
The Sunday American, is because her
rich husband is in some business
trouble and has failed to provide
properly for her maintenance. She
still'resides in a handsome apartment,
but even this is to be given up just
as soon as the lease expires.
Where she will then reside she does
not know and won't know for some
time, 1t depends upon the income she
will make hereafter, and also upon 4
settlement with her husband
There have been continuous rumOrs
for several months that Mr. and Mrs.
Andrews were legally separated. This
is not so. They are living in separate
apartments.
When l married Mr.. Andrews,
about four years ago" said Miss
Frederick, Il decided to choose a ca
reer of love instead of fame. But /
soon saw that the pursuit of love and
happiness was not silVery path

companion of a stage celebrity, but

husband seemed Indifferent as to what
I did and partly because I feared that

JAMES
SPENDING LAST
YEARS At HOME
Former Famous Bandit Traced
Back to Missouri Farm Where
Brother Jesse Is Buried.

DENVER, July 12.-Within the last
few months there have come many
stories regarding Frank James, the
one-time bandit Frank James has
died in Oregon, California and few
other States, he has gotten religion"
in the East, and he has been active
generally. And the queer part about
t is that he is alive and in good
health, and is spending his last days
on the old James farm a few miles
from Kearney, Mo, where Jesse
James is buried.
Brings Citizens Statement.
This is the information that is
brought to Denver by L. Wright, a
motion picture proprietor who re-
Gently made a visit to the farm in
Missouri. When he returned he
brought a statement with him, signed
by various citizens of kearney, and
which reads as follows:
To Whom 1t May Concern:
This is to certify that we, the
following citizens of Kearney,
Clay County, Missouri, hereby af-
firm that we are personally &C
uuainted with the original Frank
James, brother of Jesse James,
and that he is now enjoying good
health and is living on the old
James homestead about three
miles northeast of this city, and
we Furthermore state that he is
an honored and respected citizen
of this community.
4 went back to get Mr.. James
opinion regarding law and order" Mr..
Wright said. II am the proprietor of
set of Jesse James pictures and
had received the criticism that they
were not moral. l contended exactly
the opposite-that they showed the
bad effects Of a life of crime. So
went back to get some expression
from Frank James on it. He told me
this.
James Maintains Innocence.
"If anyone thinks he can violate
the law and make a success of it,
consider him insane, and his finish
will be the gallows or the peniten-
tiary.'"
Frank James contends that he was
innocent of all the charges Of out
lawry placed against him. He points
to his acquittal as evidence.
