Stubborn Fight to
Boost Macon Light
and Power Prices

A large number OF Macon business
men remained in Atlanta Thursday
when the hearing was continued be-
fore the Georgia Railroad Commits
sion on the petition Of the Macon
Railway and Light Company and, the
Georgia Public Service Corporation
asking to be allowed to increase their
rates in Macon for light and power.
The companies assert that their
rates, made two years ago in a period
of keen competition, now are so low
that both are losing money. They de-
sire to advance the rate from to 10
cents a kilowatt.
Among those appearing for the
companies are Judge w. Fl. FELTON,
and Roland Ellis. Walter before and
Wallace Miller, representing the mer-
chants who arc opposing the advance,
are subjecting employees of the COM
panies to searching cross eXamina-
tons in the hope of showing that the
present rates are profitable.

Immediately after staying his wife

hospital early to-day. Norris is in

He had been drinking hard for sew

Dennis, chauffeur had gone to the
Norris home preparatory to taking

would have shot Felix Gunter, the
first person to come into the room
after the tragedy was enacted. He
was covered by a revolver in the
hands Of Police Surgeon Jennings

Al the barracks Norris appeared
unconscious that he had committed

as he was locked up.
Dennis was hurried to the City

Except young Dennis, there was nc

Of ENTIRELY
NEW FRAUD
Postal Authorities Uncover Clever
SwindIe Worked Extensively
in Atlanta Darktown.

When the Federal Grand Jury
meets next Monday. it will have as
one of it's first cases a negro de-
PENDANT, who, if the postoffice inspec-
tors office hasn't got him down all
wrong, has been working a successful
if not humble imitation of one OF
Raffles' most famous little tricks
among the negro population Of At
lanta.
Frank Reed is the name given at
the inspectors department, and this is
the style of his game.
Frank circulates around in Dark
town until he turns up family
which answers both the following re-
quirements:
Requirements Simple.
Cd There must be a. son or a
daughter or other near relative
living away from home.
CD There must be money in
the family, or the means of rails
ing it.
Here is summary of the latest al
legged escapade
A family was found having a mar
ried daughter living in Chicago. Reed
called on the family, explaining with
much feeling that he lived right
across the street from the daughter,
and that she was in bad, the police
having arrested her and her husband
for sheltering unawares a girl who
was a thief. Reed said they were in
such close confinement that it was
impossible for them to write.
Generously Offers His Aid.
Then he outlined his plan. He, be-
ing a brakeman, was on the run from
Chicago to Atlanta, wherefore he had
offered, in the goodness of his heart,
to help out the worthy and distressed
couple.
Money was needed. Three hundred
bucks" if that much could be had.
Less, if not. Reed had much infiu-
ence with the Chicago police, and he
could use the money to the best ad-
vantage. But it was not to be in
trusted to him. Oh, no. He would
just take what money was available,
put it in an envelope with letter,
written by the distressed parents, and
let them address it to the daughter,
at the prison.
Fair enough.
Reed even Gin one instance) es-
corted a worried relative to the post
office and got a stranger, a white
man, to address the letter.
Always Mixed Letters.
The only trouble seems to have been
that there were two letters, one con-
tanning the money and the letter, the
other Cooking just the anne on the
outside) containing blank paper.
Reed, it is charged, always manag-
ed to get these letters mixed, so the
blank paper was mailed and other
remained in his pocket.
He varied the game little, the in
spectors say, and has been working 1t
with good deal of success since last
June. Most of mis- victims were con-
fding, thrifty, old-time negroes. In
one case his haul amounted to sos.

GREAT CHANGE
IN TWENTY YEARS
Shaw Lady Looks Younger
Instead of Older with
Lapse Of Time.

Shaw, Miss-Mrs. v. N Smith, Of
this city makes an interesting state
meut of her experiences, as follows:
Twenty mine years ago I contracted
a serious form of womanly trouble
We called in our family physician and
he treated me for it, but it seemed to
do no good. 1t went on into other
bad troubles, and I commenced talk
ing all kinds of medicines to see If
could get relief, but to no avail.
Il suffered with that trouble up
until eleven years ago, when I read
about Cardui, the woman's tonic, and
bought a full treatment. 1t relieved
me at once, and after taking the full
treatment, I am now we'll and stout.
81 sent my brother, whom l had not
seen in twenty years, one of my pho
tographs, and he wrote me that
looked younger than when he last saw
me"
For more than so years Cardui has
been relieving women's sufferings, and
building weak women up to health
and strength. No other tonic gives
the same results as Cardui. No other
womans medicine has the long record
Of success in treating cases of wom-
anlv weakness and disease.
Cardui will surely help you.
Try it.

r URNING to intricately carved
i canoes for inspiration, designers
of coiffures have studied them and
have produced a few daring and some
very beautiful hairdressings. Canoes
may be relied upon to provide variety
in styles, and the modern artist to
take advantage of every ide.i which
is to be found in these wonderful
carved pictures.
Much to the surprise of the artists
in coiffures some of their most daring
efforts, and a few copies which fol-
lowed the originals almost exactly,
were seized upon as soon as launched,
and the cameo coiffure is just started
on a career which may establish it as
a fad.
Tight curls and smooth, even waves,
and much elaboration in arrangement.
characterize coiffures which follow the
suggestions of the cameo. Two of
them are shown here, and If the hair
| of the lovely lady shown at the left
were white no one would need to be
| told that she is wearing it la cameo.
It is waved with the utmost precision,
with every hair in place. The gradu-
ated curls on the neck are smooth and
evenly placed. and the chignon as
shapely and smooth as If carved rath-
er than combed. There is no denying
the elegance of this arrangement. 1t
is quaint and charming.

styles of Capes.

There are several kinds of fashion
able capes and one may choose ones
favorite style. The officers cape has
straight military lines, crossed bands
fastening with a snap button at the
back of the waist giving a very sol
dierly effect. The toreador cape is
worn rakishly over one shoulder and
is rather short, rarely falling much
below the waist line. The page cane
is a gay little affair of silk attached
at the back of the collar 1t is merely
an ornament and makes no pretense
of affording warmth. The mantlllf
cape is of lace and is draped over the
bare neck and arms at the back of the
evening frock. Most serviceable of all
is the red ridinghood cape, which i.
gathered into turned over collar ano

the picture, is a fine type. Nothing
could be palmer or more shapely The
Tapped seams help out in the adjust
ment of the garment, and hemmed
edges at the fronts and about the col
lar and cuffs make trim. decorative
finish. The collar is of the roll-over
kind that may be turned up and fas'
tened close about the neck.
Other cloths used for this style are
chinchilla, corduroy, plush, cheviotr
velours, plaids and checks, and the va
rious cravenetted coatings, besides
few fancy weaves.
For driving and for the auto, when
the weather is nipping, these substan'
tial, well-adjusted coats make their
wearers cozy. Like a tailored suit,
they have style of their own.
Many of the new models have
pronounced flare to the skirt, but the
heaviest cloths are cut on most man
nish lines.

G lNCE it has become the custom for
~ women to get out of doors day in
and day out, either at the call of bust
ness or for the sake of good health,
they have learned to demand many vir
tues in their cold-resisting coats They
want cloths as warm as fur and good
to look at. They affect mannish styles
IN the cut of these utility coats, but
do not permit them to be cumber-
some or too heavy.
Manufacturers have placed on the
market as smart and trim lines as the
most discriminating woman of fash
ion could ask for. One can be quite
unconscious of the cold when forti-
fled against it with the right kind of
clothing. The tonic of the cold will
be enjoyed by the most delicate Of
women if they are protected from dis
comfort.
No winter season has come to us
more full-handed in the matter of de-
sirable top-coats for the coolest wealth
er than has this. Styles have been
adapted to cloths, and both to the pur-
poses for which the garment is to
be used. The result is coats with
splendid qualities-warmth, durability
and smartness.

and precise nor the curls always
