Believe Army Scout Is
Man for Whom $4,000
Reward Is Outstanding
CBy Associated Press. }

COLUMBUS, n. NJ, July 26.-J. s.
Barkman, internal revenue agent at
Fort Smith, Ark, en- route here for the
purpose of identifying Guy Johnson,
government scout held at Columbus on
suspicion of being Guy Hartman,
wanted in connection with whisky
frauds in Arkansas, is expected to ar
rive today. Agents of the department Of
Justice at Washington, who trailed the
prisoner into Mexico, are to arrive to-
morrow.
Local officers who examined Johnson
and compared photographs declare that
no doubt exists as to Johnson's identity
despite the latter's protestations of in
nocence
To Captain Louis Won Setback, chief
of the army intelligence office, Johnson
confided that he was wanted in the Uni
ted States for law breaking, but believed
that the offense he is wanted for is more
than offset by his military record of the
past three months during which time
he was in danger several times of for
feiting his life to bandits.
Rewards aggrega ting fifteen thousand
dollars are said to be offered for Hart
mans arrest. Local police officers, who,
at the behest of the army intelligence
bureau. apprehended Johnson at the bor-
der, have put in claims to the depart
ment of Justice for the rewards.

of our country, it's armies and it's forces
on land and sea.
1.-The burden of thinking, deciding and
leading has been hard upon me and real

Flees From One Flood
And Cyclone to Another
And Finds Haven Here

Mrs. Benton. L. Beverley, wife o. the
proprietor of the handsome Leon Iotel
at Tallahassee, Fla, gave smile of re-
lief in the lobby of the Ansley hotel
Wednesday morning and told why she
was glad to get to Atlanta.
For several weeks she has been fleeing
from Goods, hurricanes and cloudbursts.
Now that she has reached Atlanta she
says she feels that this city is far
enough inland and high enough to assure
her of no further repetitions of the hor-
rors of the last two weeks. She doesn t
even care if it rains in Atlanta for "a
more days.
Mrs. Beverley said that the Apalach-
icola river in Florida rose to the height
where it was seven miles wide. There
were cloudbursts in Tallahassee every
day First she fed to Mobile, arriving
there in time to meet the hurricane and
flood Then she sought relief by going
to New Orleans, where she arrived in
time to feel the effects of the big blow
there.
Mrs. Beverley was on her way to
North Carolina when news came of the
disaster in that neighborhood.
$50 you can see that / am glad to
get to Atlanta" said Mrs. Beverley ''It
is safe here and l am going to stay I'M
til l know all other danger has past"

CHANGES PROPOSED FOR
STATES FISCAL SYSTEM
Joint Legislative Committee
Will Recommend Reor-
SANITATION in Finances

The special joint committee of the
house and senate appointed to analyze
and digest the report of c. ]. Metz, the
certified accountant who recently made
an audit of the states finances, prob
ably will make a number of recommen-
dations for reorganization of the hscal
system along constructive lines.
The committee is understood to De
considering the ACCESSIBILITY of recon-
mending that the governor be author
ICED to employ an efficiency expert TO
make a thorough survey of all DEPART
ments and recommend a system OF
checks and balances.
Another suggestion considered by the
committee is that a board of control
be placed in charge of the finances Of
all departments.
A purchasing department will prob
ably be recommended. which depart
ment will buy all supplies used by the
state and thus save money by getting
wholesale prices.
1t is well known that the state of
Georgia's finances are handled In
most inefficient and 'slipshod manner.
Appropriations are made in lump sums,
heads of departments draw these lump
sums of the state treasury and deposit
them in their personal bank accounts,
and are under no bond to protect the
state.
This and other glaring faults of the
lack of system were pointed out oy
Auditor Metz and the special commit
tee is undertaking to formulate thor
oughgoing program of recommendations
that will take the states finances out
of their present snarl and place them
en- somewhat the same basis as the
finances of all successful business con-
Germs.

S110,000 SUIT AGAINST
MORRIS FERTILIZER CO.
British Subject Alleges Breach
of Contract to Sell Him
SuIphuriC Acid

Stanley Doggett, a British subject
with residence in East Orange, n. j.,
Wednesday filed in the federal district
court, through his attorneys, King &
Spalding, a suit against the Morris Fer
tilizer company for $4,000, claiming
damages from an alleged breach of con-
tract by the defendant company
Doggett asserts that on November 20,
1915, he entered into a contract with
the Morris Fertilizer company for the
sale of 1000 tons of sulphuric acid at
$50 per ton, the acid to be delivered in
400-ton monthly installments, starting
March, 1916, and ending in December.
When the time came for the deliver
les to begin, says Doggett, the price of
sulphuric acid had scared skyward and
was bringing from $50 to $40 per ton,
and the defendant company is said to
have refused to complete it's part of the
contract.
The alleged damage represents not
only the SIS per ton difference in the
market price when the first delivery
should have been made and the contract
price. but also includes the expense
arising from preparations made for the
transportation of the acid from the Nor
ris Fertilizer company's plant. Doggett
claims that over $4,000 were expended
by him in obtaining acid tank cars and
drums necessary for the transportation.

| WOULDN'T HAVE
COWARD FOR
A SWEETHEART

l wouldn't have a coward for a sweet
heart,
I'd rather be an old maid all my life;
A man must be a lover of his country,
If ever he would think to call me wife.
If mothers taught their sons to shun
the army.
Wed be the laughing stock of all the
world;
America, the football of all nations,
And old Glory in dishonor would be
furled.
I'd speed my love upon the path of
honor
And smile, though breaking were my
heart
I'd think of him and pray for him each
hour,
And strive to do a loyal woman's part;
Though cruel foe may wound or mutt
late him,
If of all his manly graces ne is shorn.
If only he had breath to say, Il love
YOU"
I'd marry him as sure as 1 was born.
If he were ill I'd quickly go to nurse
him,
And help him win his strength to fight
again
I'd stay as near the front as they
would let me.
And minister to sick and wounded men.
If he should die in battle 1 would mourn
him,
As my hero who had battled for the
right;
Well never have a country safe to live
in,
If our brothers and our sweethearts will
not fight.
Some wonder why we women love a
bluecoat,
Be he soldier or a sailor or marine,
Why we always wave our handkerchiefs
and cheer him,
Whenever on parade the troops are
seen;
1t isn't that in uniform he's so hand
some,
It's not because he looks so spick and
span,
But because he is the nations brave
defender,
He's a real American man.
