Twixt twilight and dark, up near Manitou Park, a maiden sat combing her bright golden hair, when heated with roaming, all panting and foaming, there came and squeezed her, a big grizzly bear.

yULET!DE DANGERS

Far be it from the purpose of | the fire-preyention sharks to ap- pear as kill-joys at the Merry Christmastide. But
 This is the third of a series of Christmas warnings issued by the Arkansas Acturial Bureau, i, of Little Rock, in a statewide effort to cut down the annual loss of life and property and hu- man suffering that unhappily at tends the holiday season.
 The circular is headed.
 Warning for stores, churches and bazarrs' and says:
 Holiday fires in these, filled with people, are usually holo- caustic. Light inflammable dec- orations make fires easy to start and easy to spread. A match, gas flame or an electrical de. feet may do it. Watch gas jets. Decorations may be carried a. gainst them by air current. The same is true of stove pipes.
 Watch smokers. Do not per- nit them to light cigars inside of buildings. Qn parts of Europe this is an offense punishable by fine or imprisonment
 Do not make the slightest change in electric wiring with out consulting a competent elec- trician.
 How To ThaW Pipes And
 Not Set Your House Afre.
 Every winter people burn down their homes by thawing water pipes with some sort of blaze or flame.
 It is highly dangerous to car ry lights or torches under a house and everybody knows it, but people persist in so doing lar gely because they don't know any other way to thaw frozen pipes.
 The following method is high ly recommended by those who have tried it and possesses the advantage of safety from a fire hazard standpoint.
 Wrap the pipe in an old bath towel or some suitable cloth and pour hot water on the cloth. Have enough cloth so that the heat will be retained for suffici- ent length of time to accomplish the result. And then wrap them so they'll never freeze again.
 Wrap or pack your exposed water pipes so that you will nev- CT have to worry about thawing them again, for usually when they freeze they burst.

Fiddlin' John
Is Bound Over
By The Judge

ATLANTA Ga, May 24,-On the
charge of forgetting to leave a sum of
money belonging to Miss Dora Smith,
Of 20 Pratt street, on taking his de-
parture after spending the night, Fid-
dim John Carson, champion fiddler OF
the Old Fiddlers' convention, which
meets in Atlanta every year, and fam
Gus for his music throughout the Blue
Ridge mountains of Georgia, East Ten
nessee and North Carolina, was bound
over yesterday by Recorder Johnson
of Atlanta, and is held under bond for
the city court.
Fiddlin' John was very much hurt
when the recorder bound him over He
figured the judge ought to turn him
loose because the judge is exceedingly
fond of the fiddle and the bow, and
regularly attends the Old Fiddler's
convention.
But the recorder, although he felt
for Fiddlin' John, was obliged to put
aside his personal inclinations and be
guided by the evidence Now Fiddlin'
John declares that when he gets out Of
this scrape he's going to put his fid-
ole and bow in the box and leave At
lanta never to return, not even for the
next Old Fiddlers' convention.

THIS SECTION IS IN !
MIDST OF PROSPERITY

ATLANTA, Ca, May 24-In spite
of the injury to crops throughout five
southeastern states, this section is now
in the midst of the greatest prosperity
it has known for years, and similar
conditions will prevail throughout the
continuance of the European war and
will grow better hen the war is over,
according to the agents of mercan-
tile agency which met here yesterday
for their annual session.
Georgia, Alabama, Florida, South
Carolina and Tennessee were repre-
sonted at the meeting, and all of the
agents reported that extreme dry
weather for several weeks has done
serious injury to the crops. The
Strawberries of Tennessee, the cotton
crop in Alabama, the truck and fruit
crop in Florida, the peach crop in
south Georgia and the cotton in mid
die and north Georgia, and the cotton
i'll South Carolina-all have felt the eff
fects of long continued drought.
But the South, unlike the rest of
the country, has sustained and sup
ported herself since the outbreak of
the war; as shown by the reports of
the agents, and when cotton goes to
q cents pound or better when the
war is over, prosperity will over
spread this section in greater abund-
ance than the South ever experienced
before.

Dry Law Is

property owners who opposed the en-
actment of Georgia's new prohibition

hurting them seriously as they at one

Statistics given out today by local

Night Gardens
While The Star
TWinkleS Too

ATLANTA, Ca, May 24.-Gardening
at night has become the popular di-
version of the tired Atlanta business
man, and they do say it's one of the
finest little diversions ever invented.
One plants his turnips and his toma-
ties and his beans, and then he strings
electric wires on poles and puts in cleo
trio lights. After supper when one
feels craving for rest and recreation
lie goes out and switches on the lights
and takes his hoe in his hand and
Knocks out the weeds.
The little plants smile up at you in
their sleep, and the stars twinkle way
up in the sky, and the moon bathes
the scene in a flood of light etc.
Leastways, that's the dope the tired
business men, in number of in
stances, are handing out in Atlanta
just now.

HOW TO PREPARE,
PLANT AND CULTI-
vATE IRISH POTATOES
I2w dry laws

Fall potatoes: One of the most prof
, table crops, and one of the most use
full that can be possibly be planted on
cur Southern farms, is the fall crop
of irish Potatoes.
Many people who have tried plant
ing this crop continue to do so, and
the interest is increasing. This crop is
different from the spring crop, will
keep almost indefinitely as they can be
housed in barrels; in an ordinary cell
lar, barn or any other dry cool place,
and are convenient for use throughout
the entire winter, and will keep per-
fectly until June and July, when they
are ready for seed that perfect stand
can be secured from. Therefore, this,
the Lookout Mountain Potato has been
grown year after year strictly for fall
planting, and the seed harvested in
October and November are best for
fall planting.
A perfect stand can be secured from
/ this seed as they are sprouted by June,
ready to terminate Immediately after
being painted in the ground. They
will not make in the spring, as their
habits have been completely changed
owing to the continued fall planting
for more than 220 years.
The Lookout Mountain Potato is
sound and firm, there never being any
black hearts among them; also free
from scab. They are the best to keep,
heavy yielders, are mealy and the
very best of table potatoes.
One of the principal reasons why
people should plant this potato ex-
tensiyely is because they can be cul-
tiyated at time when labor is usually
plentiful, and not much else to do on
the farm. Furthermore, their keeping
quality is another reason why you
should plant them and you are never
bothered with the dreaded bugs with
this crop, as they do not propagate
during the cool nights of September
and October.
If the following instructions are
carried out you can easily produce
from 100 to 200 bushels per acre on
good land. The proper way to plant
and cultivate them, for instance; after
grain crops have been harvested the
stubble land is ideal for growing these
potatoes. The ground should be first
roughly broken with 2 to 4-inch |
scooter, narrowed thoroughly with
disk harrow, and a few days after this
ground should be turned deep with a
two-horse pillow; narrowed thoroughly
and either rolled or dragged. Every
and 7 days a weeder or peg-toothed
harrow should be run over the ground
to keep it open and moisture circulat-
ing in the seed and Any time after
the 9Th of July to the goth of August
for middle and south Georgia is the
proper time to plant as it requires
about 80 days for them to mature.
w. ]. Josey has limited amount OF
these potatoes on hand, put in your
order to be in time. adv.

VETS DEFEAT SUFFRAGE
IN WEST VIRGINIA
Women Rode on Mules and
Handcars in Vote Quest

The women of West Virginia got out
on handcars and muleback in their eff
fort 10 carry the message of votes for
women to the remote mountain ham
lets, but even this strenuous campaign
ing could not carry the state against
the hostile interests.
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, president
of the National Woman Suffrage As
ISOLATION. began TO receive reports yes
terday from her workers in West Nir-
ginia, and they were unanimous in de-
claring that il was the "wet" vote of
Wheeling. Huntington and Charlestown
which defeated the amendment.
Another element working toward the
women's defeat, the sufragists charge,
was the adroit use made by the anti
sufragists Of the negro question. They
told the negroes that the white women
would take the vote away from the ne
groes and establish also a Jim Crow
system, and then they told the white
women that the negro women outnum-
bered them and would get the balance
OF power.

other sppointees-Justice John C..

Strasbourger il is contended that tho
lateness of his entrance into the cam.

for him to poll a normal vote.

low Fourteenth Street in the history OF

ago, won in the 18th District, which

are not involved in the charges OF
knitting in these three states look upon
this as a most hopeful sign for the
party. They assert that it means that

that the Republican party will be com

MANHATTAN GAIN
RECORD FOR COP.
Congress, State and Court
Victories Make Tam
many Worry

The Republican County Committee
is pluming itself on the results Of local
campaigns. Four out of the ten Rep
resentatives from purely Manhattan
districts will be Republican in the next
Congress, one more Republican than
New York County ever sent before to
the House of Representatives.
In the State Senate the county or
ganization held its own. electing two
out of ten. In the Assembly, however,
eight out of thirty-one Assemblymen
representing Manhattan will be Re-
publican. In the last six years there
have been only six Republicans in the
Manhattan delegation.
In fact, the strength Of the straight
Republican vote in New York County,
as evidenced in all the local campaigns,
is giving the Tammany organization,
which has been figuring on a conquest
of the city administration next year, a
great deal of worry. The election of
Justice George V. Mullan to the Su-
preme Court by $4,000 plurality over
Justice Robert l.. Luce was a distinct
shock. Luce had been told that his re-
election was a certainty, so much so
that he need do no electioneering.
Tammany Too Confident
John f. Mcintyre, Tammany candi-
date for the Court of General Sessions
against Judge James Delehanty, was
another who was misled by his or
overconfidence. On the
face of the returns Mcintyre has won,
but by margin so slim that the Re-
publicans expect it to be overturned in
the recount, failing which they feel
