ATLANTA. Ca, Jan. G.-Don't imag-
inc that you are the only sufferer from
the high cost of living, for Pietro the
organ grinder has also been hard hit
by the high price of monkeys.
Pietro is stranded here because his
performing Roscoe died of pneumonia,
and he has discovered that new Ros-
coe will cost at least $1S or $40, where
as he could have bought three monkeys
a year ago for that amount
They were drug on the market at
$4 to So apiece year ago, but today
it's hard to get one for $40. Forum
ately very few people require monkeys
in their daily life, so there isn't much
agitation like we hear about the cost of
-four and meat and butter and eggs, but
it's hard on Pietro just the same.

resentative Chiperfeld, of Illinois, a
Republican member of the house rules
committee declared at the leak
hearing that he understood Thomas w.
Lawson was the chief beneficiary OF
the market decline after the presidents
peace note was made public, and un-
derstood that Lawsons transactions
aggregated $300,OO0.00
The declaration was made when Rep
resentative Harrison, Democrat, ask
&c Representative Wood why he didn't
satisfy himself as to the identity of "a.
Curtis" who wrote him a letter giving
alleged information. Representative
Chiperfield objected to Representative
Harrison's line of questioning saying
that the committee seemed to be losing
sight of the fact that these scandalous
charges were made by Thomas W.
Lawson, of Boston.
The committee held that Represen-
tative Harrison's question was proper,
and Representative Wood declared that
a number of congressman told him that
there was a broker named "A. Curtis"

Representative Gardner, of Massa-

Prohibition Forces Turn
Their Guns From Osborne
ToFeIderm Warm Battle

The guns of the prohibition forces of
south Georgia have been turned in the
federal judgeship muddle, according to
Washington dispatches.
The name of j. E. Sheppard, well
known attorney of this city, is re-
ported to be under consideration by
the two senators from Georgia. This
comes in the nature of dispatch from
Washington, and friends here have
been interested in having his name
broueht to the attention OF the senators.
He would make fine Judge. and many
people would be delighted to greet his
appointment.
Mr.. Sheppard is known as close
friend of Senator Smith, having been a
stalwart supporter during his legisla-
tive days. Likewise Mr.. Sheppard is
said to be close to Senator Hardwick.
Ire prohibition guns which were un-
limbered on w. w. Osborne, of Savan-
nah. with a terrific force, only have
their echo now in that quarter. 1t is
believed by the prohibitionists that
they have safely shelled the Osborne
ertrenchments.
The new object of attack comes in
the person of Thomas B. Fielder. of
Macon and almost as sudden as the
Osborne fusilade was begun and ended
lust so quick was the firing on Fielder
begun.
In yerifcation of the new turn ap-
pears dispatch yesterday from Wash
irgton, which says:
Word is received here that prom
inent prohibition leaders the state over
being satisfied that Osborne is elm
mated from further serious consider
alton. are turning their attention to Mr..
Fielder. of Bibb county, of whom letters
have been written directed to the pres
ident protesting against his nomination
on the ground that he is equally as
offensive to the prohibition sentiment
Of the state as Mr. Osborne was.
The fact is recalled that before the
Georgia general assembly finally adopt
ed prohibition it was Mr.. Fielder who,
as a member of the general assembly
from Bibb county. led the two most
