The Russian Consul sent a clerk

a few dollars extra for railway fare

a Russian agent was to meet me

the clerk told me that the Consul

CAPITAL TURNING TO SOUTH.
COMING HERE FROM EAST FOR
CONSERVATIVE INVESTMENT.
Mr.. Hillyer, Just Back From New
York, Says Pessimism Doesn't Ex-
tend to Southern Properties.

ATLANTA.-Eastern capital is
turning more and more to the South
as a field for conservative investment,
according to William Hurd Hillyer,
who has just returned from an ex-
tensive trip through larger North
ern cities. Mr.. Hillyer's business
brought him in contact with num-
Der of leading bankers in New York,
Boston and Philadelphia, and he ex-
pressed himself as very much pleased
with the attitude assumed by finan-
cial men toward Southern investment
at this time.
"The prevailing tone of pessimism
(of Wall street and other financial
sections does not seem to extend to
Southern properties" said Mr.. Hill
yer. THE assumption is that funda-
mental conditions are somehow bet
ter in the South, owing to the strate-
gic position of this section as regards

Of favorable comment,
Perhaps the greatest interest just
at present is being manifested in
Southern mortgage loans. The recent
violent fluctuations and continued
uncertainty in the stock market has
caused investigators to turn with
great favor to the consideration of
real estate securities. The liberal
interest rates afforded by Southern
mortgages, safety and other factors
ceing considered, is attracting more
attention in Eastern financial circles
than at any previous time. l should

HAS FALLEN UPON HARD TIMES
NOT ONLY HAS THE ROOSTER
BEEN ROBBED OF HIS CROW.
But Scientific Sharks Will Feed Him
Upon Dyes Until He Grows a
Substitute for Aigrettes.

WASHINGTON. d. C.-Pity the
poor chicken Not only are the sci
entific sharks Of the government try
ing to rob the rooster of his crow,
but they intend to feed him auline
dyes until he shall sprout and mature
feathers that women can sew on their
hats and thus save the aigrettes. If
the rooster cannot from his own an
cestry grow feathers long enough
and bushy enough to match ostrich
plumes and quills he is to be crossed
with other birds until he combines all
the essentials of high priced plum
age. The hens will probably in the
new scheme of things be required to
grow pompons, those downy, feath~
cry things so effective when young
woman wants to brush a mans
cheek the right way instead of pinch
ing his eyes out with her aigrettes.
Since the biological bureau OF the
department of agriculture has con-
scented to raise a crow1ess chicken
requests have poured in for expert
ments on everything from mewless
cat to a bayless dog. The bureau has
not consented to try every freak sug-
gested, but has promised to try to
cross the chicken with other fowls
and dye his feathers by way of his
stomach. Feeding the dye was sug-
gested by the fact that madden and
red pepper fed to canaries have an
effect on their plumage. In Japan it
is said that they raise rOosters with
tails twenty feet long. Thus infinite
combinations are suggested.
Proof that the department of ag-
riculture knows more about birds
than it does about women, however,
lies in the fact that the beautiful
plumage of the peacock, which is
quite inexpensive, is more often used
in feather busters than on women s
hats.

Where Are They Now?

Some time ago a magazine argued
in favor of alcohol: Drinking peo-
pie have led the progress of human
ity. The Jews drank and gave us
monotheism. The Greeks drank and
gave US art and literature. The Ro-
mans drank and gave us law. What
have the teetotal races done for us?"

Jews drank, but where are they to-

ting to a fund to provide place
where they may live in safety. The
Greeks drank, but where are they?
Their descendants sell total abstain
ers peanuts on our streets. The Ro-

crowd with their pet monkeys"

TAKES NAMES TO PRESIDENT
Davis and Barrow Are Formally Pre-
sented to the Chief Executive
by Senator Bacon.

WASHINGTON.-SenatOr Bacon
called on President Wilson yesterday
and presented to him the names of
Joseph S. Davis of Albany and David
C. Barrow of Savannah for appoint
ment as marshal or the Southern
district of Georgia and collector of
the port of Savannah, each respect
lively.
Senator Bacon's selection of Mr..
Davis was not contingent upon
whether Judge Spence or any other
candidate for marshal obtained some
other office. He has never hesitated
in his support of Mr.. Davis, but has
always been determined to present
his name and urge his appointment.
Senators Cannot Agree on BlalOck.
The question of the appointment
of an internal revenue collector for
Georgia has not been settled, though
it has been published that the noml-
nation of A. o. Blalock would be
sent to the senate in few days.
President Wilson brought the col
lectorship matter UP today in his con-
ference with Senator Bacon. Sena-
tors Bacon and Smith will have to
agree on some one for collector and
as yet they have not agreed.
It is not probable that the presl'
dent will nominate any one for col
lector upon whom the two Georgia
senator's have not agreed.

LIMA, Ohio.-Andrew Drew, pupil
of Orville Wright, volplaned to death
here today in a blazing biplane.
Drew was killed as result of a de-
sire to take just a little joy ride
his last words to his partner-in a
machine he had not thoroughly test
ed. His partner in local school of
aviation, j. C. Brabason, had urged
him not to make the trip.
He fell 200 feet. He was dead
when Brabason and several workmen
at the Lima state hospital pulled his
body from under the wreckage.
Drew and Brabason went out to
the aviation grounds, about a half
mile from the state hospital, during
the afternoon and Drew and his
mechanician set up the machine. 1t
was dusk when they had finished.
Drew was anxious to try out the ma
chine and urged Brabason, who had
made several flights with him, to go
along
Lets take just one little joy
ride" he laughed, then I'll go and
eat with you," said Drew.
Brabason demurred on the ground
that it was getting too dark to fly
and there were no places suitable for
a good landing.
The machine which the aviator
used was the one in which Calvin P.
Rodgers made the last lap of his
coast to coast flight two years ago.
When in the air but a short time
Drew shut off his motor and the men
at the aviation grounds saw a red
tongue of flame dart from the ma
chine.
The flash of red at the rear of the
machine increased, and Drew, evil

mile away, made an emergency dip
in an effort to save himself. The BIZ
plane, hesitating for a moment, sud-
denly shot downward, careening as
it fell.

tors ran across the field to the wreck
there was the sound of an explosion
and the machine was torn apart.
