A BROWNING EVENING WITH. Mr.. /
LEVERS

A BhOW MIMI Ef EINlNG WI n M n.
LEVERS
The largest audience at any meet
ing of the College Club for several
years gathered in the parlors of the
Christian church last Tuesday evening
to hear the splendid literary and mu-
steal program presented by Mr.. w.
H. Levers and four of our best known
and best liked local musicians, Mrs.
W. L. Whitney, Mrs. Elizabeth Mack
all, accompanied by Mrs. Howard
Hitchcock, and Mrs. G. X. Tackabury.
From the opening piano solo, charm
ingly played by Mrs. Whitney, to the
last Browning number, read by Mr..
Levers, the audience by its close at
tention and hearty applause paid the
highest tribute possible to the eK-
cellence of every production.
The obscurity OF Browning's diction
became wonderfully lucid under Mr..
Levers masterful Interpretation of
the seven poems which he presented.
Each group of songs perfectly fitted
into the setting of the Browning
poems and perfectly suited the voice Of
the singer Mrs. Mackall's beautiful
soprano in three Italian songs was
marked contrast to Mrs. Tackabury's
deep contralto in two English songs,
both equally pleasing TO the audience
and winning well-deserved applause.
The entire program was as follows:
Piano Solo-'To the Spring" ......
.......t... Torjgsen
Mrs. w l.. Whitney.
From Dramatic Romances and
Lyrics Last Duchess" :. Saul

CHILD LABOR MEASURE
TO FRONT IN SENATE

Washington, August 1.-The
child labor bill will be taken up
in the senate tomorrow and will
remain the unfinished business
until disposed of. Sen. Hardwick
OF Georgia and Overman of South
Carolina are expected to lead the
opposition against the measure.
The former expects to make a
long speech as to the bills consti-
nationality.
Senator Borah still proposes to
submit the immigration bill as an
amendment to the child labor bill,
despite the action of the Demo.
cratic caucus in voting to oppose
such a move, and this effort prob
ably will prevent vote being
reached on the original bill until
next week.
The child labor will was recent
ly included by the Democratic
caucus into the sessions legisla-
tive program at the urgent re-
quest of President Wilson, who
hopes to see the measure enacted
this session of Congress.

T|FTON OFFICER SHOT.
HIS bssA|LANT KILLED

Triton, Ca, Aug. 3.--Ofhcer ].
R. Kimbrough of the Triton 20
lice force, was shot and danger
ously wounded by a desperate ne
gro at S:45 o'clock last night, the
bullet entering the officers mouth
and ranging downward and lodg-
ing back of the jugular vein.
Officer Kimbrough was patroll-
ing the Atlantic Coast Line rail
road yards on the lookout for two
escaped convicts from the Worth
county changing, when he saw
the negro jump from a freight
car standing in the yards. He
caught the negro by the belt and
began questioning him, when the
negro pulled a pistol from his
pocket and opened fire. There
were four shots, but only one
took effect. Kimbrough fell and
the negro ran.
Negro Shot to Death
The officer, thinking that the
negro would try to get away on
the train, wired the officer be-
tween Triton and Waycross to
look out for him. Officer Stevens,
OF Norwood, twenty-five miles
west of Waycross, was on the
lookout for him, and when the
freight train pulled in he saw the
negro step off the train with his
pistol in his hand. Officer Stew
ems began firing at him with a
shotgun, three of the loads taking
effect in the Negroes chest, killing
him instantly.
Chief of Police Thrasher went
to Norwood this morning and
identified the negro as the one
who shot Officer Kimbrough.
The two convicts that Officer
klmbrough was looking for were
later captured by Deputy Sheriff
Frank Whiddon, about one mile
west of Triton.

TAX EQUALIZATION
REPEAL BILL PASSED

Atlanta, Aug. 2.-The Senate
today passed by vote of 80 to 7
the bill to repeal the tax equaliza-
ton law, of which Senator Sto-
vail of the Thirtieth was the au-
thor. Declaring it the most con-
structive piece Of legislation en-
acted in many years, minority
leaders in the senate vigorously
opposed the repeal of this law.
Senator Stovall has consistently
fought the tax equalization meas
ure from its very inception and
sought to prevent its enactment
as a member of the House in 1913.
AS passed the repeaI bill carries
referendum clause, submitting
the question of repeal to the vot-
ers of Georgia in the next general
election. There is a similar bill
pending in the House, but consid-
Grafton of it by that body has
been effectually blocked up to the
present time. The friends of the
tax equalization measure hope
that the Senate will meet the
same fate.
A somewhat extended debate
preceded the action Of the Senate.
1t was Senator Pickett of the
Forty-hrst who introduced the
referendum amendment that was
adopted and which, undoubtedly
brought the measure more votes
than it would otherwise have Sc
cured.
