PROVIDES EXCITEMENT
AT MOBILIZATION CAMP

The Savannah Press cores
pondent at Camp Harris, Macon,
has the following to say in regard
to an incident there Sunday after
noon;
Probably the most startling
thing that happened around the
camp was when three shots were
fred by Private w. ]. Golfers, of
Company B, of Augusta, and Do
nald McCaw, Company c, Fitz-
gerald, in the center of the infan-
try camp.
Around 3 o'clock in the at
ternoon a shot was heard and all
the men quickly ran to the scene.
Before minute had elapsed an
other shot was fired. This time
the entire camp was in excitement
as this had never occurred before.
Lieutenant Altick, officer of the
guard, and Capt. George H. Bald
win, officer of the day, were on
1he scene Immediately after the
second shot and while they they
were making an investigation in
this case another shot was fired
IN the company street of the Fitz-
gerald company Lieutenant Al
tick was on the job in a second
He entered one OF the tents from
which he suspected the shot was
nred and began an investigation
Not a man in the tent admitted
he fired the shot. Lieutenant Al
tick then ordered every man to
Get his gun and let him inspect it.
his was done and it did not take
ong to pick out the guilty party,
IS the smell Of powder was still in
She gun. All shots were blanks.
The men were arrested and
ii in the guard house under
ouble guard by the men Of the
Savannah Cadets, who were on
guard duty all day. The offense
Is a grievous one and subject to
q heavy punishment. The two
boys will probably be tried in the
summary court here"

THE LONG DAYS CLOSE

The long day draweth to a close,
Yet ere its end
We still have time to pluck a
To give a friend.
There yet is tie, ere drops the sun
Below the west,
To speak cheering word to one
By fear oppressed.
~ iw
Time yet for many little deed
Of kindness,
To help our brothers in their need
Or soothe and bless.
Twill seem, perhaps, we cannot
spare
From Our own woe
Time to relieve another's care:
Believe not so!
We who have suffered should be
Strong to rise above
Our pain and grief; to sing a
song,
To work, to love.
That whose falters on Lies road
May see and hear,
And bear his seeming heavy load
With freshened cheer.
So may our day draw to its close
Lies sunset gun
Calling us to well-earned repose,
And Gods "Well done p

ASA GAMBLER WILL BE
L
MAYOR OF ATLANTA

Atlanta, Ga, July 20.-After a
number of prominent citizens had
been urged to run for mayor of
Atlanta and all of them had de-
clined, it remained for Asa G..
Gambler, the multi-millionaire OF
Coca-Cola fame, who is one of At
lanta's most prominent and most
influential citizens, to be persuad-
ed to make the race, and the an
nouncement of his candidacy yes
terday was the biggest LEGAL news
Of the day.
His entry was hailed with en-
thusiasm by citizens in every
walk of life and was a subject OF
a great deal of interested discus
sion among the members of the
legislature.
Mr.. Gamblers purchase of the
state of Georgia's entire bond is
sue of $3,65O,0O0 at a bid he pur-
posely made the same as the bid
for which New York states latest
bonds were sold, in order to be
certain that his bid would top the
bids OF the bond dealers syndi-
cate who were competing with
him, won him the high regard Of
the general assembly.
Locally, Mr.. Gambler is not only
a prominent man but man whom
the people love. 1t is said that
he has helped thousand young
men of this city to build their
homes, and has never pressed a
single one of them. 2
His gift of one million dollars
to Emory University is the larg-
est single contribution ever made
by any citizen of the South TO the
cause of education.
Three other candidates had al
ready entered the race for NAV
or previous to Mr.. Gamblers an
nouncement. They are Charles

VILLA GONE AGAIN
WITH MUCH LOOT
CarranziSta Forces Have Re-
taken Chihuahua City.
NO AMERICANS WERE KILLED
General ozuna Enters the City From
the North and Later Generals
Murgina and TreVino Also
Reach the City.

Juarez, Mexico.-Gen. Carlos Ozuns
entered Chihuahua City from the north
according to a telegram received by
Gen. Francisco Gonzales, brigade com
mander. The message was from Gen
eral Ozuna and was dated Chihuahua
City. 1t was officially announced al
military headquarters that the Car
rama forces have re-occupied the city
Telegraphic communications with Chi
huahua City over the Federal line has
been re-established.
Latest reports here are that many
Villa followers have been captured and
killed.
No Americans have been killed in
Chihuahua City by Villa, according to
private message received here from
that city. The message said that the
only foreigners to suffer were the
Chinese, for whom the bandits showed
no mercy.
After entering the city, General
Ozuna, the cavalry commander who
had been charging the rebel lines at
Nombre de Dios and the northern su-
burbs of Chihuahua City, re-estab-
lished telegraphic communication With
the border. He made brief report to
General Gonzales, his superior officer,
and then proceeded into the heart of
the city on an exploring expedition.
The battle between the forces of
General Marguia and the bandits took
place Friday and was believed to have
completely routed the Villa soldiers.
Villa and his staff are said to have
gone on special trains toward the
west.
Six trains entered Chihuahua City
from the south and were believed here
to have carried the remainder of
Murguia's column, his field equipment
and heavy artillery.
Telegraphic communication has
been re-established with Torreon and
Mexico City from the Chihuahua state
capital. The railroad has been re-
