A charming custom among tourists
at Verona is that Of leaving their Wis
iting cards at the reputed tomb Of
Juliet This act, however, must be
taken as a pretty compliment 70 the
immortal love story rather than as an
Offering in memoriam. for It is unlike
ly that travellers have not learned that
the tomb is In reality one Of those
pious 6ctions so dear TO the senti-
mental and that even shakespeare's
tragedy Itself Is generally held 70 have
no historical basis. A writer In the
Graphic Of London says, THE so call
ed tomb. OF red Veronese marble, in
the gardens Of the Orphanage was for
merly a washing trough" Another
writer Is no less severe. There Is
plenty to see In Verona" he says, ''the
cities Of northern Italy. without vast
ing time, money and emotion IN look
Ing at frauds" But the custom re-
mains and will remain as long as there
are tourists.

J. |. Downing, Club Organizer,
Expects to Have Record Ex-
hibit at Next Fair.

ATHENS. Nov. III. l.. Downing.
newly appointed State organizer of
Pig Clubs, with headquarters at the
College of Agriculture, halls from
Iowa. He thought Iowa was the hub
of the universe in pig growing, but
after visiting parts of Georgia during
the last few days, he declared that if
Iowans should come to Georgia they
would not return, so great are the
advantages in raising pork here com
pared with Iowa.
He was astonished to find thatsit
swas possible to fatten hogs in South
Georgia at 8 cents per pound by
feeding peanuts He thinks a little
corn would finish the meat and give
it better flavor, but he finds that
Georgia is producing the corn, too,
at very low cost
Mr.. Downing believes Georgia can
be made one of the greatest meat
producing States in the country. His
purpose now is to induce every boy
that joins a pig club to get a pure
bred pig Preparatory to this, Mr..
breeders who will discount their usual
prices rs per cent to help the boys.
He expects to have the finest show
ing of hogs at the STATE Fair next
year ever seen in the State, with all
it means in demonstrating what
Jimmie" can do with a pig on the
farm if he is allowed one and is per-
mitted to feed it according to best
methods.

Opening of S250,000
Hospital Is Delayed
Failure of City to Provide Mantle
nance Fund Hampers Jack
sonviIe Institution.

JACKSONVILLE, Nov. loving
to the failure of Council to provide
sufficient funds in the budget for
maintenance, the new S250,000 St.
hikes Hospital did not open to-day,
as had ben planned, and probably will
remain closed for months.
While the hospital is owned by the
st. Luke's Hospital Association, a
private corporation, it has been re-
ceiving city patients in it's old build
ing, it's charitable work costing the
association nearly $4,000, or about
twice as much as the hospital has
been accustomed to receive from the
city.
With the building of the new hos
pital on ground valued at $4,000 and
donated by the city, the running ex-
penses will be heavier than ever be-
fore.
The hospital has been in operation
for about 40 years.

required her to sleep until 10 o'clock.
Finally, it was settled by the entire
party going over to the Night Court,
where a considerate and understand

and where Mr.. Alsop paid the chauf-
feur his $3.50.
All this is the story that comes
from New York. But soon Atlanta

Monkeys Used as

Savannah Naval Surgeon Starts Hunt
for Dengue or "Breakbone'
Remedy.

SAVANNAH, Nov. Fifty South
American monkeys in the Marine
Hospital are to-day the sickest they
have been since they were snatchtd
away from the jungle. Chief Surgeon
Lavinder has inoculated a part of his
poison squad as the monkeys are
termed. with the dengue or break
bone" fever germs in the hope Of
discovering something tangible about
the disease, which affects the mon
keys about like it does human. No
fatalities have resulted
Very little is known of the fever
that comes up from the tropics every
few years, and is epidemic in the
Southern States. particularly along
the seacoast. About all that is known
about it is that 1t is germatic and
IS spread by mosquitoes. There is no
cure, and the case usually is over at
the end OF a week or ten days.

MACON LEAGUE
SEEKS TOSTOP!
SALES Of BEER
Law enforcement Organization
Asks lnjunctions Against Brew
cry and Wholesale Dealers.

MACON, Nov 1.-The Law En-
forcement League has filed petitions
in the Superior Court for the closing
of the Acme Brewery and for
permanent injunctions against c..
c. Porter and Ike Bashinski, whole
sale beer dealers, on the ground that
they are blind tigers" and therefore
nuisances in that they violate the
State prohibition law by selling beer.
These cases viii bring before the
courts the question of whether beer.
as legal proposition, is intoxicating
and if the sale of it violates the pro-
hibition law. If this contention of the
Law Enforcement League is upheld,
it will be possible to put every saloon
in Georgia out of business.
The League has also prepared petit
lions, to be filed next week: asking for
injunctions against twelve more sa-
looms, it being alleged that they sold
whisky during the last two weeks
while the State Fair was in progress.
There are already AZ saloons here un-
der the injunction, and four have been
permanently closed.

OgIethorpe School Project Ex-

Active work on Oglethorpe Uni

the spring, and real estate men are
beginning to set their sails for a great
deal Of business that this big i'm

the opinion of the Rev. Thornweil
VINO is pushing the project, realty
values between the college site and
Buckhead, and as far north as Cham
pee. will double as soon as a pick is
stuck in the earth for foundations.
Already there has been subscribed
more than $250,000, and as soon as a
few more subscriptions are in and
all subscriptions are in bank, the
work will actually begin. Eventually
the cost of the university will be ST.
100000, and the influence of such an
institution is expected to revolution
ize property values for several miles
around.

college of this character is ex-
uected to open with an enrolment of

The total number of acres In the
Oglethorpe site is 1877, 80 of which are
4 in the beautiful Silver Lake, famed
FAR and wide for its clear, sparkling
water and its boating and bathing
possibilities. This lake will be the

pursuits, and it is predicted that the
university will have crews that in

heard in the city Saturday.
Mrs. Alsop, until her remarkable
marriage to Edward B. Alsop, Pitts
burg millionaire nearly so years her
senior was Miss Fife Pope Hill, Of
Washington, Ga, one of the gayest,
merriest, most Vivacious souls in the
society of that old and exclusive town.
Then she went East with her hus
band.
From time to time the tidings of
the Georgia girls career in Eastern
society came back. She was record
ed as the chum of Mrs. Tom Pierre
at the Fashionable Jersey watering
places, and as the close friend of
Mrs. Raymond Belmont. Chock full
of life and the JOY of living, she be-
came a praplish girl again.
Can't Help Being Madcap.
Bareheaded, blouse clad. laughing,
shrieking, she was a familiar figure
along the coast, flying about with hec
chum, Mrs. Pierce, in a long, rakish
runabout. The folks along the coun-
tryside swore by the two as the
brightest, merriest and withal the
| kindest ladies of their acquaintance.
They were everywhere, driving, sail
ing, motoring.
Then came the affair OF the ir4te
chauffeur, the taXicab, and Mrs. AL
sop's arrest the other night at the
Ansonia Hotel, in New York. Those
in Atlanta who knew Effie Pope Hill
smiled at the incident because they
knew there was no harm, or any
thing to froWn at, in her adventures.
She just can't help being a girl, they
will tell you, even If she mas a hus-

paid no attention to her expenses that
day The wife of Edward Alsop was
never stinted for money, and in con-
sequence she is apt to be bit care

ordered a taxi chauffeur to take her

The chauffeur, a blase creature ne
was, was impressed not the slightest
by the fashionable appearance Of MS
fare. nor by the jewels that adorned
her costume. There were nearly
$1,000 in gems, it was said.
He demanded his fare, $3.50. Mrs.
Alsop, peering into her bag realized
that the bill at MaXims and Bus
tanobys had taken her every penny.
She asked the chauffeur to drive her
to the Waldorf where she would re-
plenish her purse.
But the chauffeur was obdurate.
Not an inch would he bulge without
$50. Mrs. Alsop spoke sharply To
him She admitted later that she was
