A CAP FOR
THE CLIMAX,

A very interesting story wat
given Us this week, which We
deem worth retelling TO our read
ers. 1t il not q joke and the sto
ry is not repeated here for tht
humor it may hold. 1t is plain
IN after of fact record Of an Incl
dent in the effort to enforce thu
keeping of the law IN this city.
Chief of Police Broughton wal
called up one day recently anc
advised of the theft of a bat ol
Mrs. 9. Bonnet. The hat haG
disappeared from the place where
it was usually kept, and it could
not be located 10 another part Ol
the house. As a last resort, the
information was given TO the
Chief of Police.
The Chief visited the home of
the girl who served as a house
maid 10 the home from which the
hat had disappeared After
questioning the maid directly
and pointedly about her head
gear, he demanded to be shown
her hat. She promptly produced
hat. 1t did not meet the de
scription of the lost hat. The
Chief demanded her other hat.
After considerable hesltancy and
attempted browbeatiDg, she
brought out the second hat.
Tais came nearer the description
of the missing one. 1t was
promptly taken to Mrs. Bonnett
for her inspection. While some
of the ribbons had been changed,
1t was positively identified as the
missing hat.
The stolen hat and the honse
maid were taken to the City
Court, where the proper charge
was made before Judge Nuckolls.
When the girl was asked what
she had to say for herself, she re-
piled: "Judge, you can't do me
nothiDg'-i's just 10 years Ola"
And so it was. The case was
and the prisoner was
discharged. This is another ex

BOOZELESS BANQUETS
GEORGIA BANKERS WILL NOT
SERVE WINE AT DINNERS.
Resolution Adopted at Recent Meet
ing Prohibiting the Serving of
ANY Intoxicating Liquors.

Hereafter the banquets of the
Georgia Bankers, Association will be
dry affairs.
At the closing session of the recent
convention in Savannah a resolution
was unanimously adopted making it
a rule of the association that no wines
or intoxicating liquors OF any kind
are to be served at any functions that
may be held.
Wine and cocktails were served at
the last annual banquet of the asso-
citation, and it, is understood that
some of the visiting bankers strongly
disapproved. Some did not, how
ever. Whether any of the bankers
suffered any i'll effects from the cele-
rbration could not be learned.
AT any rate there appeared to be
considerable unanimity of opinion on
the subject when q. H. Clark of
Moultrie brought it up in the conven-
ton. In offering the resolution he
Stated that while some doubtless did
not object, there were others to
whom the serving of liquors at the
banquets was obnoxious. Mr.. Clark
contended that inasmuch as Georgia
is a prohibition state it does not be-
come the bankers association to have
the law violated.
In seconding the resolution Chas.
B. Lewis facetiously referred to the
fact that he had seen l.. P. Hillyer,
another prominent Macon banker,
apparently enjoying himself at the
banquet. Mr.. Hillyer joined in the
laughter that followed. But when ].
D. Walker of Sparta also laughingly
mentioned Mr.. Hillyer in connection
with the banquet the Macon banker
turned and exclaimed:
81 want it understood that l was
not drunk" This sent the convention
into an uprOar.
Mr.. Walker quoted two Savannah
bankers as saying that they hoped
the association would go on record
as opposing the serving of intoxi-
cants at the dinners.
