Senator McLaughlin's amendment by
naming Ex-Governor Joseph NJ. Brown
CT Marietta, in place of Secretary of
State Phil Cook. but this substitute was
lost receiving only three votes in the
committee.
The house bill, to which this radical
amendment was attached by the com

the road shall be in the hands of a
commission composed of the governor,

EVANGELIST TAKES
THEM To TASK SURE

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 24.-Atlanta
preachers and the modern pulpit gen
orally we're taken to task last night
for sighting the Devil by Colonel John
Dean, of Australia, the fiery evangelist
of the Salvation Army, who has been
speaking to large crowds here.
Col. Dean says it is as important to
believe in a personal devil as it is to
believe in a personal God, and quotes
ccpious passages Of the scripture to
show that the inspired word insisted
cn this belief.
Colonel Dean in his address exhibited
a profound knowledge of apocryphal
Santanic history and classic demonolo-
gy as we'll as of the scriptures, ana
drew word picture of the Prince of
the Powers of the Air such as has been
leard from few pulpits in this genera
ten.
He explained that the devil is a great
and mighty parsonage whom even the
angels feared and respected He de-
srribd his forked tail and cloven hoof,
but said that Satan was also possessed
of a magnificent intelligence which he
took especial delight in exercising to
trap not only sinners, but especially
converted people.

PRAYER SH|PNRECKED
IN ATLANTA PORT

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 24.-One of the
so-called prayer chains" which have
been sent around Georgia through the
mails recently came to shipwreck at
the hands of a we'll known Albanian
yesterday who got one of the letters
containing the prayer, promising good
things if he repeated it and sent it to
ten of his friends with a similar re-
quest, and threatening dire happenings
if he broke the chain.
Instead of complying he sent the
prayer back to the man who sent it,
With the following written on the back
81 have sometimes wondered whether
the person who first started this Sc
cred drivel was a fool or fanatic
believe he was both. This kind of
prayer used to be sent around on post
cards; but since the government or
dered that such cards be not delivered
but destroyed it costs twice as much
to be a jackass.'

FAkERS ARE FOUND
slowed IN CARS
Of CARNIVAL TRAIN

When the long special .1ain carry
ing the carnival company from Amer
icus to Tallahassee last Sunday was
being made up here railway employees
found many carnival followers
and boys not employed by the manage
rient, slowed away in canvas vans and
box cars, going with the show into
Florida These hangers-on were pull
cd out of their hiding places and the
cars sealed. Only those carried by
the carnival company were allowed to
go, and these rode in the coaches.
This fact, doubtless, explains t he
presence of many of the unidentified
dead in the wreck of the Kennedy
shows near Columbus. Doubtless
many people whose names were not on
TIE list of employees and who were
aboard the train as were those in
Americus on Sunday last, lost their
lives in the wreck.
Mr. Kennedy is a game fighter and,
despite his heavy losses, Will re-or-
ganize his shows at once. The Ken
nedy shows will continue their en-
gagements and will open again Thurs
day They will go to Albany next
week, and the following week go to
Jacksonville, Fla. 1t is impossible to
estimate the loss exactly, but it will
be between $4,000 and 100000, as
there is not one of the shows COM
plete now. The Ferris wheel and the
"carry-us-all' were completely de-
stroyed.
Only parts of some of the shows re-
lnain, but they will be replaced at
once. The remains of Mr.. and Mrs.
Kempf will be shipped to Capac, Mich,
today and the remains of the others
will be buried in Columbus this after
noon by the Kennedy shows.

LEGISLATURE To co
INTO NEXT WEEK

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov 24-The sting
ing rebuke administered by the pot
ent, grave and reverend seniors" of
the senate yesterday to the membrs of
the house, has resulted in complica-
tion which prevented the assembly
from adjourning as expected and which
will keep it in session certainly up to
Saturday night and possibly into next
week.
The senate was offended at the way
the house delayed and then asked the
senate to take hair-trigger action on
the important matters which it sent
over at the eleventh hour for consider
alton.
Today, even the Western & Atlantic
bill is unfinished, and it will not be fin
ished until the details on which the
house and senate disagree are thor
oughly worked out to the satisfaction
Of both bodies.
