KoHLSAAT STEALS A MARCH ON
GEORGE HINMAN

Herman H. Kohlsaat, present boss
of the nter-Ocean, stole march on
George Wheeler Human, former
boss, and got himself appointed fed
eral receiver for the nter-Ocean.
The appointment of receivership
for the paper grew out of the suit for
$92,252 filed by Human against
Kohlsaat. This money is the unpaid
balance of a note given September,
1912, for $177,500.
After the filing of the suit Kohl
saat apparently smeIled something in
the air, for shortly afterward Atty
Levy Mayer, representing friendly
creditor, applied to Federal Judge
Carpenter for the appointment of
Kohlsaat as receiver.
They were just in time, for a min
ute later Atty Lewis E. Hart, rep
resenting Hinman, applied to Judge
Baldwin, Circuit Court, for the ap-
pointment of a receiver. Human
wanted r. ]. Mooney, his former as
sociate in the publication of the In
ter-Ocean, as receiver.
Kohlsaat gave $4,000 bonds as re-
ceiver.
In a statement on the front page
this morning the Inter-Ocean says
that the present complication merely
grew out of the litigation regarding

TEACHERS READY TO FIGHT


The school board is not going to
saddle the acknowledgement idea on
the schoolteachers and get away with
it. Right now the board is consider
ing either increasing the school day,
so as to extend from 9 a. m: to or
$50 p. NJ, or either have an entire
years term.
And all this work they propose to
shove on the teachers without in
creas their salaries. The teachers are
prepared to fight and are putting up
the following arguments:
That a school day lasting from
o'clock in the morning until or $50
o'clock in the evening would be so
tiresome to a growing child that the
average boy or girl would gain moth
ing in educational advantages by the
longer day, which also would be a
menace to the child's health.
That the summer vacation is abso-
Iutely essential to the health and well
fare not only of the pupils but of the
teachers as well.
That the teachers now are under
paid and that this additional work,
for which they would receive no ad-
ditional compensation, would be an
imposition.

the revaluation of the ground .oc-
cupied by the Inter-Ocean. 1t also
says that the change will have no
effect on the conduct of the paper.
KohlSaat said the rent of the Inter-.
Ocean property has been raised from
$14,50e year to $4,000 year by
the Charles T. Yerkes estate.

was invaded" said the director OF
one of the big Champagne cellars,
"the Germans said: The wine will
be ours so they spared the vines
when our troops chased them out
they had not time to stop to do any
damage, all of which is especially
fortunate, since the year of the war
will class alongside the year of the
comet as one of the best vintages."
The gathering of the grapes
around Rheims was done under a
violent fire. The joyous peasant girls
whose laughter is POLITICALLY said Ito

come out with the SPARKLE went
about their work as if the ground
was not being ploughed everywhere

This year there is little laughter in

accompanied was the ominous crash

The SEABOARD TO
EXTEND TO ATLANTA?
APPLICATION FOR AMENDMENT
TO THE CHARTER OF OCILLA
SOUTHERN RAILROAD.
HAS AROUSED GREAT INTEREST

Proposed Development Would OpeT
Big Territory to the Seaboard
With Whose President a Confer
ence Has Been Held.
ATLANTA.-Is the Seaboard All
Line back of the plan which contem.
plates extensions of the Ocilla South
ern railroad, now owned by j. A. j
Henderson of Ocilla, which would
link Atlanta and Macon on one end
Valdosta to Nashville on the southern
end, with the small link from Ro-
chele to Macon?
That big plans are now under way
concerning this railroad trunk line
development seems assured.
Formal application has been filed
here with the secretary of state for
an amendment to the charter of the
Ocilla Southern authorizing an extern
sion from Macon to Atlanta, dis
lance of approximately 100 miles,
and passing through Bibb, Jones, JAS
per, Butts. Newton, Rockdale, Hen
ry, DeKalb and Fulton.
This, however, is not all of the
proposed amendments. A further
amendment extends the road from
Nashville in Berrien county, the pres
ent southern terminus, through Ber-
rien, Lowndes, Clinch and Echols,
some 60 miles to the Florida line,
and thence through Hamilton, Co.
lumbia, Baker and Duvall counties,
Florida, to Jacksonville.
Mr.. Henderson has been making
frequent trips to Atlanta, Macon and
the east in the past few weeks, and it
is understood that he has perfected
plans to begin on some of the work,
presumably the lAtlanta-Macon link,
shortly.
One report is to the effect that re-
Gently Mr.. Henderson had an extend
ed conference with President Hara-
han of the Seaboard This is perhaps
responsible for the rumors here to
the effect that the Seaboard is seek
ing a straight line down through the
heart of Georgia, with an ocean out
let at Jacksonville.

New Questions and Answers Department
Of Interest to Shooters.

| respondent living in the section ask
ed about.
Please make your questions as spe-
cific and definite as you possibly can.
Such questions as Which is the best
revolver" or What rifle shall use
for big game hunting?" obviously
cannot be answered. Give me all the
details, such as the conditions under
which the arm is to be used and just
what you expect to be able to do with
it. If your questions are of such a
nature that lengthy answer is nee
essary send me a stamped self-ad-
dressed envelope and 1 will write to
you personally. All questions, of
course, should be sent to me in care
of this paper.
Unsigned communications will re-
ceive no attention, but the writer's
name will be withheld if he desires.
From my experience with this line
of work I am led to anticipate that
many questions will be asked which
will be, in substance, identical, and
therefore an answer to one such will
answer all the rest.
The DUN Dunn Bullet.
There is one question which !
know will be among the first, and
that is, What is the dum-dum bull
let?" so I'm going to answer that one
right now.
A dum-dum bullet is broadly
speaking, any bullet designed to ex-
pand upon striking soft material such
as flesh. The regular hunting cart
ridge used for big game is dunn
DUN, because it has soft lead nose
sticking out of the front end of the
bullets metal jacket. When such a
bullet strikes flesh it mushrooms,
i. e., the soft lead nose spreads out
like the top of mushroom and the
result is a big hole which usually
quickly kills the animal struck. Cart
ridges for use in war have sharp
pointed bullets and are supposed to
drill a neat little hole, which, If not
perforating a vital part will quickly
heal. The only trouble is pointed
bullets frequently act erratically and
instead of going straight through
they tip and tumble end over end
and tear a hole just like one made
by a dum-dum. This peculiar phe-
nomenon occurs mostly at the short
err ranges and is perhaps the cause
of the accusations regarding the use
of dum-dums by both sides in the
present European trouble.
Now hustle along with your ques-
tions! ALT P. LANE.

A Word About the Man Who Will
Answer the Questions.

Answer the Questions.
Most readers of The News do not
need an Introduction to Alfred P
Lane. the man who is pointing a re-
yolver straight between your eyes
from the head of this column.
Those who follow the shooting
sport at all will recall that Mr.. Lane
then Just bursting out of his teens
made a clean sweep of the pistol and
revolver championships for Uncle
Sam at the Olympic games in Stock
holm in 1912. In these competi-
lions the young American was pitted
against the short arms experts of the
world and his triumph was heralded
az one of the noteworthy achieve
ments of shooting history.
Before going to the Olympic
Games Mr.. Lane had made three
worlds records and had won the in
door pistol championship of the
United States. His shooting has
kept up to championship standard
without a relapse, the latest import
ant winning with which he is credit
ed having been the grand aggregate
of the revolver ranges at the 1914
Sea Girt tournament.
Starting with .22 caliber rifle
practicing in his fathers cellar as a
boy-Mr. Lane has grown up with a
natural penchant for firearms of all
sorts, being almost equally expert
with pistol, revolver, rifle and shot
gun. Along with this inclination to-
ward shooting irons Mr.. Lane has
been able to carry an exceptional fac
nifty for concentration and analysis
and a natural talent for things me-
chanical and scientific. He digs into
shooting subjects and goes to the
bottom. Not content with claims he
is continually conducting expert
ments with arms and ammunition
to satisfy not only his own inquiring
mind, but to answer intelligently the
continual flow of questions that
come to him, as an authority, from
individuals, publications and many
other sources.
Theer is no doubt that Mr.. Lane
is peculiarly adapted to handle quer-
les that may come to him from read
ers of The News.
