MISS LUCILLE VERA.
NEW HOUSE IS r.
MARKING TIME
Only Filing of Bills in Order,
Pending Committee Selections,
Many Seek Berths,

When the House convenes at II
o'clock Monday morning there will
be little work before it and the ses-
sion is not expected to last much over
an hour. It will not be possible to
finish committee appointments be
fore the middle or last of the week,
and practically the only work before
the body will be the filing of bills.
In the meantime Speaker Burwell
is wrestling with the appointments.
The jockeying for chairmanships Is
moving along merrf1y. The rive score
of verdant members are working
their strings as best they can in land
ing places upon the committee.
Speaker Burwell understands the
membership, and will, to great ex~
tent, follow his own judgment in
making the appointments. This week
will find the House settling to leg
islative basis. The real leaders are
taking charge gradually and under
the quick and able leadership of Mr..
Burwell the work should proceed in
systematic manner.
The House has been flooded with
local bills. A large number of gen1
eral bills have been filed. The ques-
ton of tax reform is generally be-
lieyed to be the most important ques-
ton. A number of bills looking to-
wards relief in this direction have
been filed

They Pour Into Her Ears Affairs of State and
Domestic Troubles Back Home.

For years almost without number
the Georgia Legislature has enjoyed
the reputation of being an assemblage
Of dignified and earnest men-bur-
dened with the cares of state and
caring nothing for the frivolities of
life. And Georgia politicians have
padded the same boat. But now,
alas, They were exposed Saturday
morning, and now are held up to
the rude gaze of the proletariat as
very ordinary folks, and-here's the
climax-they are FLIRTS!
Miss Lucille Viera says so, and she
knows more about Legislators and
politicians-not politics, mind you
than all the political experts in the
State of Georgia Miss Viera, be it
known, is the handsome young wom-
an who presides over the cigar coun-
ter in that hotbed of political tur-
moiI-the Kimball House, where
measures and politicians are made
and unmade. During the summer
season, to quote Miss Viera, she is in
a position to make a close study of
legislation and legislators. And she
Goes it, and here is her verdict:
Politicians and Legislators are
more fiirtatious than travelling sales
men ever dared to be, and as for the
callow and loose tongued college
youth-well, there never was min
ute when the college boy was in it,"
"OfficiaI Confidant" She Is.
Miss Viera declares Legislators and
politicians have elected her official
confidant" Of the Kimball House, and
into her sympathetic ear is poured
tales Of grave affairs of statei the
longings of a soul that Graves com
partnership; the horrible fix of a man
who has a pocketful Of money and
doesn't know how to spend it.
They come singly and by twos in
squadrOns and in regiments, and they
buy large quantities of cigars and
postage stamps and post cards, and
they stand and talk by the hour on
such subjects as Miss NieTa's unde-
niable beauty; their craving for some
one to go TO the theater or dinner
with them; of how their domestic
relations are strained; of how they
miss friend wife, and of how they
wish friend wife was at the bottom
Of the bottomless sea, and a thousand
and one other things that Miss Niera
says make her ear ache"
Miss Viera told a Georgian reporter
all about it Saturday morning,
These politicians and legislators
are the giddy guys, all right" she
remarked, after a bewhiskered and
venerable gentleman had purchased
a postage stamp and had been told
that she could not go to the theater
with him.
The things they tell me are the
limit. Lots oftthem wander up here,
buy a cigar and say something about
the weather, and then start right in
telling me how much they miss their
wife and how much they love her
They talk about their wives for half
an hour, maybe, and it begins to
seem as though / had better wire her
to come and save her husband from
insanity about that time | get
an invitation to dinner or the thea

Yearly Coke Output
Now 100000

WASHINGTON, June 3O-The coke
industry in the United States has now
reached, in good years, the 100000
900 mark and, moreover, there is a
steadily growing increase in the pro-
portion of coke made in by-product
and retort ovens whereby the valua-
BILE by products of gas, tar and am
monia are saved to the value of tens
Of millions of dollars annually.
In 1912 the total production of coke,
according to the United States Geo
logical Survey, was 43,916,S34 tons,
valued at $111, 523,33G
The quantity of coal required to pro-
duce a ton of coke is much less than
formerly. 1t is doubtful If in the
earlier years the actual yield of coal
in coke exceeded so per cent, whereas
in 1912 it was 81 per cent.

Hen Foster Mother
To Pheasant Flock

PITMAN, N. j., June SO.-A brood
of English pheasant fledglings is
thriving in the barnyard of Harry
Landers with a hen for their foster
mother
Landers found the nest of eggs in
his grain field few days ago. He
was startled by a ffutter of wings as
the whirring knives of his machine
passed over the hidden nest. The
frightened mother pheasant flew to
the cover of a wood. She did not re-
turn and Landers determined a more
commonplace bird should take her
place.

3 ATTLESHIPS
NEEDED EVEN
IN PEACE
Colonel Graves Points Out "Ami-
cable Settlement" Must Be
Due to Jap Failure.
BY JOHN TEMPLE eRAVEsE.

WASHINGTON, June 3O.-A very
high official of the Government goes
so far as to say that THE Japanese
question is no longer serious"
The same official has expressed
views Numerically opposite within
the last two weeks.
1t is understood that the recent
resignation of the Minister of War
from the Japanese cabinet and the
substitution for him of an official who
is committed to the policy of peace
Of Toxic and of Washington, has
been of special interest to the Sec
rotary of State and OF the Japan
csc ambassador.
Rumors Say Peace.
1t has given a forward impetus
to the rumors floating about the
State Department that a basis of
amicable settlement" has about been
reached.
The Hearst papers for a week past
have reported an official atmosphere
that indicates some present under
standing between the Premier of
Japan, his ambassador here and the
American Secretary of State.
1t is difficult for the readers of
the recent diplomatic correspond
ence and for the student of inter-
national affairs to see how the
Japanese contention can end SO
softly and harmlessly as assurances
at Washington would have the pub
lie understand.
The Japanese had an apparently
vital contention upon which they
have never received any satisfaction
The Japanese are a brave and
martial people, absolutely self con
fident in war The Japanese know
that they are prepared as we are
unprepared for war. They have
much to gain by war and this is
their time of all times to enter upon
It,
Jap Failure the Reason.
If the Japanese contention is to
end now, as the very high official
most positively asserts, it can only
mean that Japan has failed to make
a satisfactory neutrality treaty with
Russia, or to find the finances for a
struggle with the United States over
the vital question of racial integrity
and national honor
Before the American people per-
nit themselves to be lulled to sleep
by official assurance they will wish
to know something definite about
Japan's money chest, and the sue
cess or failure of the recent en-
deavor to neutralize Russia.
Until then it is good policy to be
amiable but alert, and to press upon
the Sixty third Congress the IN
PERATIVE DISCRETION OF
THREE NEW BATTLESHIPS

ter. And if l ask them If they think
that is being true to their wives they
come back with something like this:
oh, well, I'd get a divorce for you,
any day But they won't. Not for
me, they won't. one old man with
whiskers handed me this one: It's
the good-looking girls like you that
send all these men down to our in
sane asylum at Milledgeville.' l think
he said he came from down some
where near Milledgeville"
Keeps Tab on EN-.
Miss Viera says the efforts of com
partnership craving Legislators and
politicians to start a conversation are
very amusing. She kept tabs on
twenty of them the other night. She
was astounded at what her figuring
showed, not knowing that there were
so many different ways to edge grace
fully to the dinner eating and thea
ter-attending offers. Here is what
the twenty did:
Eight made snappy remarks about
the weather, and followed it up with
statements that it must be awful for
girl to work inside during July and
August. Did she want to go to the
theater?
Three bought cigarettes and asked
If she was saving the coupons.
Three bought magazines and said
she looked like the girl on the cover
One asked her if she had his home
paper.
One asked if he didn't meet her at
Palm Beach once.
One said she looked like his wife
Two bought post cards and re-
marked about the excellent line the
cigar stand carries.
one bought a postage stamp and
asked her to lick it so 1t would make
the letter sweet.

ANIMAL HOSE,
PARIS RACE
Big Turf Event Sets Fashions Of
Snakes and Even Notices
on Stockings.
Special Gable to The Atlanta Georgian.

SpeClai Canle 10 he Atlanta Georgian.
PARIS, June 30.-Makers of fash
ion DEGREES are now concentratinS
their attention upon women's stock
ings. This is probably accounted for
by the fact that the new style gowns
make the stockings about the most
conspicuous part of women's attire.
Here are some of the effects estab-
lished to-day as a result of the fash
ionable and style-setting Grand Prix
turf event at Longchamps Sunday:
Hosiery bearing embroidered snakes.
birds, butterflies and even notices.
Most of the stockings were pink, al
though some were white, and even
few purple, and even green ones we're
seen. Those barring the reptilian
decorations were so marked that It
would appear that the snakes We're
twined about the leg, head downward.
Jewel Bedecked Shoes.
Bands of diamonds and other pre-
cious gems also were used for deco
rative purposes. Some women wore
slippers with the heels so high that
it seemed they were walking on stills.
Not a few of the shoes We're deco
rated with Jewels. One woman had
the heels of her shoes completely COW
cred with pearls, rubies and diamonds
The transparent gown still holds its
own, but in contrast to the scantiness
of many dresses was the presence of
fur on a number of women. In some
cases the very paucity of the garment
made furs comfortable, If not neces-
sary.
Among the Americans who saw the
$50, 900 race, the richest turf event IN
the world, were Mrs. August Belmont,
of New York; Miss Helen Draper
Boston; ex-senator and Mrs Chaun-
cey NJ. Depew. New York; Mrs. Craig
Biddle, Philadelphia; Miss Florence
Hobson, Baltimore; MyTon T. Herrick
United States Ambassador; Mrs.
HerFick and Mrs. Cornelius Wander
bilt, Jr.
White Wigs in Favor.
Wigs Of white hair, which
had already made tentative ap-
| pearances at the earlier race
meetings, are now more numerous
than ever at Auteuil, and fur was
being used for trimming both hats
and dresses.
Saffron powder is in general use
This makes the complexion look yell
low and some of the women approx
innate mulattoes in the appearance of
| their faces.
Slashed skirts sem to have become
extinct. Shirt sleeves, which there
had been an attempt to introduce, are
not persisted in, but much decolletage
marks the disappearance of the dis
tinction between day and evening
wear.
