down to defeat so soon? Not at all.
Just as the shoulders of the French
man were nearing the mat there was
shrill blast from the whistle. The
tin horn. had saved him. There was
applause as Gotch relinquished his
grip and the men went to their cor
ners to await the signal for resump-
ton of hostilities.
When the match was resumed Gotch
again assumed the aggressive sending
his big opponent sprawling toward the
footlights. Maupas came near going
off the stage. The Frenchman rushed
at Gotch and put him down, but the
Iowan was up, after breaking waist
hold. Gotch dived for Maupas' legs and
threw him heavily to the mat. Gotch
again had Maupas near fall after
fastening a half nelson and arm lock
to the big fellow, but timely blast
from the trumpet again saved him.
and the gladiators rested.
Time and again Gotch had Maupas
near a fall, but the whistle was always
present, batting 1000 in the pinches-
Maupas went behind Gotch for
time and had him near a fall. For
some mysterious reason the whistle
failed to blow, but Gotch escaped un-
aided
Finally Gotch brought the French
mans shoulders to the mat with
half nelson and reverse body hold,
after an hour and one minute of fast
wrestling.
Il guess some fellow must have
stuffed bit of paper in that whistle"
said Gotch. "The referee was red in
the face. He must have had terrific
struggle with the tin instrument"
Gotch pinned Maupas for the second
and deciding fall in twenty-five min
utes, winning belt emblematic of the
Greco-Roman championship of Canada
1t was not the fault of the faithful
whistle that Maupas was deprived of
this trophy and the accompanying
title.

THAT is the underground pipe line.
1t runs from the oil gushers toward
the mountains through the city, taps
some local gushers, and connects with
the terminal refineries. The crude oil
is there converted into the CONNER

ships-or, in our case, pumped
through a submarine pipe into the
hold of the Caspian. Now do you
begin to glimpse my plan?'

up some buildings with dynamite,

are strongholds of the Nihilists," I an

with the pipe line, or how you will
blow up the Caspian, is still a puzzle
to me-"

me explain fully. We are not going
to set off any dynamlre. There exists
no dynamite, outside the brain of
Kaulbars. What we shall do is this:

minuteS-Time IT.!

You don't want a slow remedy when
your stomach is bad-or an uncertain

is too valuable; you mustn't injure It.
Pape's Diapepsin is noted for its
speed in giving relief; its harmless
ness; its certain unfailing action in
regulating sick, sour, gassy stomachs.
Its millions of cures in indigestion,
dyspepsia, gastritis and other stomach
trouble has made it famous the world
over.
Keep this perfect stomach doctor in
your home-keep it handy-get large
ffty-cent case from any dealer and
then If anyone should eat something
which doesn't agree with them; If
what they eat lays like lead, ferments
and sours and forms gas; causes head
ache, dizziness and nausea; eructa-
tons of acid and undigested food
remember as soon as Pape's Diapepsin
comes in contact with the stomach all
such distress vanishes. Its prompt
ness, certainty and ease in overcoming
the worst stomach disorders is a reve-

down into it and fish up something

Mr.. Lewis reply was:

NEGRO HELD
WITHOUT
BOND

Roscoe Thompson, of No. $50 Ter
ry street, was held without bond by
Recorder Broyles Monday afternoon
as the negro who attacked white
girl last Friday night in an alley be-
tween Terry and King streets.
The victim was brought to police
headquarters and there picked out
the negro from a number of others
who were led before her.
Detective George Garner also iden-
titled Thompson as the negro he had
seen lettering at Fair and Fraser
streets within five minutes before the
attack took place.
Negro Asserts Innocence.
Thomson is an employee of the
Atlanta Baggage and Cab Company.
He denied knowing anything of the
attack.
Detectives Harper and Webb, who
made the arrest, told of discoveries
which served more securely to fasten
guilt upon the negro.
Mutterings were heard against
Thompson when the, story of the at
tack was told upon the stand. An
outbreak was feared by some for a
few moments.
Defendant Hurried Away.
However, the defendant was hur-
lied away from the courtroom as soon
as it appeared plain that strong
case had been made against him.

Merchants and citizens in East At

as shown in the sixth attack by bur-
glars since Christmas on the Wag-
goner & Waldrop stores. The last eff
fort was a successful safe blowing
early Sunday morning which netted
the thieves $50.
1t was the Waggoner & Waldrop
firm members who lay in wait for
thieves at their store near the Atlanta

ago last Thursday and killed one boy

heavy buckshot loads from a shot

ON BUDGET
FAILS

Failure Monday afternoon to break
the budget deadlock between Council
and the Aldermanic Board was fol-
lowed by the announcement by Comp
troller Goldsmith that he would refuse
to draw warrants for the expenditure
of another cent of the city's money
until some agreement had been
reached.
Unless an emergency fund of some
sort is created at once, this action
will have the effect of stopping every
payment and holding up every bill
owed bv the city until one or the
other of the warning factions in the
administration is victorious or until
q compromise is agreed upon.
Emergency Fund overdrawn.
The stoppage of virtually the whole
municipal machinery as the result of
the deadlock was possibility that
appeared not at all remote. The
$4,000 emergency fund originally
provided to meet the city's current in
debtedness pending the adoption OF
the budget has been $4,000 over
drawn, according to figures furnished
the Councilmen. @
Soon after Council had convened
Monday afternoon, Councilmen Hall
and Shepard, in accordance with an
announcement made at the previous
meeting, moved for reconsideration
for the purpose of holding the meas
ure with Council for another two
weeks before it could go before the
Aldermanic Board for ratification or
rejection. This motion was lost ana
the original budget will be taken up
for the second time and undoubtedly
rejected by the Aldermanic Board as
it was before when the deadlock be-
gan.
Appeal to City Attorney.
Alderman James r. Nuttinb made d
motion, which was seconded by Al
derman Thomson, that the City At
torney be called upon to decide on the
city's legal right to pay out any fur
Their money with the budget proposals
still in the air
AS it was the general opinion that
the City Attorney promptly would de-
ny the city's right to any further eX-
penditure and thus effectively stop
the city's business, the motion was
defe1tl
This left the situation the same as
it was before the consideration of the
budget was taken up except that II
was certain that the aldernanic board
would have the matter for considera-
ton on Thursday.
May Not Pay Councilmen.
Comptroller Goldsmith had in his
hands the monthly pay checks of the
councilmeil, but he Lad not decided to
pay them out and for time 1t looked
as though council members would SUI
Ter from their own fight.
1t was regarded as likely that an
attempt would be made at the close
Of the meeting to provide an emer-
gency lupd to meet current expenses
pending the outcome of the deadlock.
