that European travel will be stop

Captain John TripIett.

Atlanta, Aug. q. That the
death of Captain John Triplett,
noted South Georgia veteran,
at the Confederate Soldiers Home
this week. caused by burning,
came to light two days after the
report of his death was given out
from the Home, in spite of efforts
to keep the cause a secret.
Captain Triplett's bed on the
top floor of the Home caught fire
about Z o'clock at night, and be-
fore aid reached him he was so
badly burned that he died within
two hours. 1t is believed that
fire dropped from his pipe, which
he was smoking while he was
alone in his room. DR.. Amos Fox,
the superintendent, thinks Trip
lett had q sudden attack of par
alysis, which caused his pipe to
fall and which prevented his
calling for assistance.
Captain Triplett was for more
than 80 years editor of The Thorn
asville Times-Recorder and came
to the Home about one year ago.
He was known throughout South
Georgia.

Atlanta and Vaudeville

Atlanta, Aug. %. Atlanta has
not let the war take away any
appetite for vaudeville, to judge
from the advance sale at the For
sythe theatre, which opened yes
terday. There had been a three
weeks vacation at the busy little
theatre, and when the doors were
opened for the coming season the
advance sale broke all records.
The war has greatly benefited
vaudeville in the South, as the
big acts which have planned a
European tour will have to re-
main in America and will be sent
South over the Keith circuit.

DIXIE FARM PRODUCTS
WILL Be EXHIBITED
Will Be Shown at Three Exposi.
tions and SO Districts and
County Fairs.

Washington, August 23.-At
three big expositions and thirty
six district and county fairs
throughout the north and west,
exhibits of southern farm prod
ucts showing the fine agricultural
opportunities in the territory
along their lines will be made
this fall by the Southern Rail-
way company and affiliated lines,
including the Georgia Southern
& Florida railway. These ex.
hibits are being made entirely at
the expense of the Southern rail-
way and affiliated lines.
1t is estimated that the attend
ance at the various fairs and expo
sitions will aggregate three million
people and the entire south will
thus be given wide advertising
which is expected to result in the
attraction of desirable settlers.
There will be four circuits of
exhibits taking on county and dis
trict fairs in Iowa, Minnesota,
Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana. New
York, Pennsylvania, Michigan and
Connecticut, while special displays
on a more elaborated scale will be
made at the great Canadian Ma
tiOnal exposition at Toronto, Cana
da and at other expositlons.

SLATON THE CHOICE
Carries I43 Convention
Votes, or IS Counties

Atlanta, Ga. Aug. 22-Now that
all the returns are in and the peo-
pie have had time to weigh the re-
suits the opinion is conatantly find
ing expression that Governor John
M. Siaton is the choice of the peo-
pie of Georgia for senator and
shall have the place when the
Macon convention meets.
This sentiment, which has pour
ed in on Atlanta from many coun-
ties which did not give Slaton q
majority, is based on the clear fact
that he was the first choice of
more people than was any other
candidate; that he was the first or
second choice in almost every
cOunty-131 out of 148 to be ex-
act-and that common sense de-
creeS that he is entitled to the
seat. Nothing but political trick
cry in she convention could take
away from him the seat voted him
by such great plurality Of the
people of the state.
Governor laton carried 143 con-
VentiOn votes, or IS counties. Mr..
Hsrwick was next with 1874 votes
from AZ counties, and MIR. Fielder
ran third, with 81 votes from 81
counties. Hutchens got eight
counties and IS votes and Cooper
had the satisfaction of having en-
iOyed himself, though he didn't
carry county.
There will be no contest IN the
convention for any place except
that for the short term in the
senate, and it seems pretty well
indicated that Governor Slaton will
get that without difficulty. He
issued q statement to the people
after the returns were all in, which
is given in part:
THE consolidated returns show
that | have received more county
unit votes that any other candi
date. They further show that |
received a larger plurality vote
than either of the other candidates
by several thousand. They further
show that | am first or second
choice in practically every county,
being second where Hardwick
was first and also where Fielder
ran first. | am either first or
second choice in 131 of the 14S
counties.
eff this were a general election
held under the Georgia law drawn
by the late Senator Bacon and APP
proved by Senator Smith, | would
now be elected senator.
cit was suggested that the coun-
ty of Fulton instruct the conven-
ton delegates to vote for Mr..
Har dwick if | withdrew my name
for consideration, and this on the
theory that he is second choice OF
this county. Is this not right! The
man who is the second choice of
the people of a county should be
voted for if the favorite cannot be
elected. If this plan is followed,
if the peoples voice is needed, my
election by the convention will be
overwhelming"
