kLU. kLUX KHAN WITH
OLD RITES AND THE
WEIRD BROUGHT OUT

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. ga weird
story has come to Atlanta from Stone
Mountain about the revival of the
mystic rites Of the Ku Klux Khan.
A night or two ago a mysterious
yellow fame was seen to burn bright
ly on the top Of Stone Mountain, and
in the early dawn a number of mys-
FERROUS figures were seen to come
down the mountain side and disap-
pear into the woods.
Investigation disclosed, it is said.
that fifteen men had sworn allegiance
t. the Khan by bowling down before the
fiery cross which was so dreaded by
carpet-baggers and evil-doers in the
reconstruction days.
The whole proceeding was perfect
ly orderly, and there is no intimation
0 the purpose for which the Khan was
revived.
From one who was preent, the fol-
lowing account of the initiation cere-
mony is said to have been obtained
The ceremony began around an
altar made of stones brought by each
clansman. On this altar was erected
the fiery cross in the halo of whose
light the men with uncovered heads
assumed the oath of the khan and
there upon Blended knees were dedi-
Gated with pure water to the service
Of country, homes and humanity. On
tie altar were placed a silk flag of the
United States that was carried in the
Battle Of Buena Vista in the Mexican
war, copy of the Bible the constitA-
ton of the United States, the declara-
ton of independence and the consti-
tuition and laws of the clan"

ACG|E COLLEGES
HAVE MORE THAN
THEY ASKED FOR

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 29.-The eleven
state agricultural and mechanical col
leges have Jared much better than the
highest hopes had contemplated. In
stead of increasing their appropria-
ton from $1,000 to $4,000, so as to
p Divide for these valuable assets, the
general assembly has appropriated
$4,000 for each college. At least, this
is what is believed by careful students
who have brought the bill by Mr.. Stew
art of Coffee, to light.
AS described by Mr.. Stewart, it
would mean that the fund carried in
the general appropriations bill OF
$4,000 would be augmented by the
special bill So that each of the schools
would get total of $4,000 year.
But the house and senate have Jointly
SO passed an act as to appropriate to
each of the eleven schools a total of
$25,000O year.
The general bill carries fund of
$4,000 each for the schools and the
committee on enrolment has found
that the special bill, instead of appro-
priating an additional $4,000, as was
understood by everybody to be the
case, really makes straightout APP
preparation to each of the eleven dis
trict schools of an additional $15,-
Gee.
This was plainly not Mr.. Stewards
intention since he has taken the pains
TO explain, and it has been so publish
ed, that he was seeking only to get S..
600 added to each school. However.
the error, assuming it was one, is
known to have thrown the governor
into quandary as to just what to do
to straighten it out. Naturally, he
doesn't want to veto the special bill
in behalf of the eleven schools, and
yet, if he doesn't, they will each get
$4,000 a year, or a total for the elev-
en- of 1915 900, instead of a total of
s165, 900, as was intended.
Of course, there is the possibility of
yCtoing the section of the general bill
appropriating $4,000 and letting the
special bill and its $4,000 stand, and
accomplishing the same results in the
end, but even that remains a question.

ultimately result in a still greater de- crease in the future.
 With a wlder dissemination of knowledge of the causes of tubercu- .osis and the means of prevention will come urger desire on the part of he masses to aid and encourage the movement. The main trouble has been that the work of education has not been sufficiently extended, despite all the effort that has been made. An hours inquiry among ones acquaint- aLces will disclose thst very few have nore than a hazy knowledge of the why and wherefore of tuberculosis and CIV have any knowledge whatever concerning the methods of prevention md cure.

 However, the results achieved by the Dominion government clearly indicate nat a wider dissemination of knowl. sdge is the essential factor in eradicat- ng the plague and we may hope that | more extended campaign of educa-

A OZONE ''JAC" ''

An ozone jag! One of the newest things, assure you, and right on the heels of the departing jag that came by way of a morning bracsr or an eve ming cocktail
 The ozone jag is meant to carry the air of Q mountain top to your stuffy offices or your still stuffier factory and workroom. Instead of having to sneak out when nobody is watching to set your accustomed eye-opener over he bar. this ozone stimulant is handed -.round gratis by the boss himself.
 Wherever introduced, everybody from he office boy and typewriter to the head of the establishment indulges in ,his new air beverage, which is war .anted to make the palest cheek glow ike Gloucester flshermans and cre- ate an appetite that Will carry dis .ress to the heart of the stoutest board Ing house mistress.

The actual benefit arrived frem Ill the WIue spread campaign against tuber- cmosIs oaIuea on n the Unted state4 ana Oanaua uur.ng the past ten or fir teen years. wAAe dlselosed annually b. sna4I but consistent lowering of the Geaeh rate, are now commencing tC snow at their tulI value though com pIladons o1 statistics covering the pas, 0eeaue. In the case of Canada the re- tiOns as the diminishing death rate has now reached the po4nt where it may bs sad to hase fallen on more than one Io4rla Of what IL was a decade and 6 half ago. at which time the anti-tub- ereuIosis campaign was launched by -.s ..e.aln.on government. While tAel has also been q marked falling off in the death rate occasioned by this fell disease in the United States 1t has not been reduced to the same extent as that of Canada, owing probably to the inhibitive conditions obtaining in many of our large cities and also to a general lack of knowledge of precau' tionary measures on the part of the people.
 Also the American campaign has been lacking In the matter of system through having been carried on by lumber Of widely separated leagues and societies with the result that the work of educating the public to guard against the disease has been less well done than has been the case in Cana da where the entire campaign was carried on under the direction of tle government health department The Canadian government has carried on the work ot education with charact- eristic thorougnness, issuing masses of literature through the prCvlnclaI health departments and has also taken an active hand In the prevention of the disease through a strict supervision of all milk supplies It has also insti- tutea vigorous campaign for the adop- ton of more sanitary Improvements in the Canao4an cilies and Tor the estab- iisilment or the aistrIet nurse system empioyed in few of the lalger cities of the United States. In addition, aid ed by the press and leading public men, 1t has given great impetus to the fresh air movement which Is by far the greatest factor in the preven- ton of the disease. All this lad re- suited, as stated in the last reports of the Canadian public health associa- tion, in a twenty-five per cent reduc- tion in the death rate during the past fifteen years. Al lthls Is indicative that the fight again this most dreaded of all human afflictions Is by no means as hopeless as the results so far ob- tained in the United States would in- dicate As matter of fact even in this country although the results of the anti-tubercuiosis campaign have been comparatively slight, the out !ool; IS decidedly encouraging The campaign has resulted in tendency to better housing, cleaner streets and more perfect sewage, all of which will help to wipe out many of the condi- tIons favorable to the growth and ex- tension of the disease. Considering the general carelessness of the American people in matters affecting their health even a slight falling off In the death rate may be considered a distinctly favorable sign that the campaign will
