WIFE Gets S0UsED

Atlanta, March Has wife got
the same right to drink as husband,

Jackson, in the crudely stated evil

last night after an outing with the
boys"
So far so good. If Mr.. Jackson want
ed to get soused occasionally, Mrs
Jackson had no objections. But when
Jackson got home, he found that while
he was out with the boys, his wife had
called in some of the girls" including
her niece and one or two other lady
friends of the family, and the ladies
were hugely enjoying dozen bottles
of beer.

and threatened to chastise not only his
wife but the other female relatives
present whereat the niece grabbed Il
pistol from bureau drawer, and dared
him to come on.
A noisy alteration followed, and
the police arrived on the scene at mid
night. This morning the recorder,

at least as much right to drink as the
husband, and fined Jackson $1O.75,

that so far as can be determined
now the amount has reached
s1,5C0,C0c,oo0. It is known, how
ever, that these figures are not
complete.
According to letter from the
front the French aviator M.
Chevilliard, was captured on
Sept. 2. He approached too
closely to the Germans whom he
nistook for British and his ma
chine was shot down by a SOL

whom he had seen in exhibition
flights in Germany. The airman
denied his identity. Chevilliard
had as passenger an officer of

several important maps. The
aeroplane was provided with
bombs. Neither Chevilliard nor
his passenger was wounded.
General Steinmetz, possessor
of the Iron Cross since 1870,
was killed on Sept. IS. Another
