SLAYER OF TERRELL COUNTY
NEGROES SENTENCED TO HANG
Murderer of Noah Johnson and Wife
Is Convicted at Cordele. The
Trial Was Very Short.

In Crisp county superior court last
week James Hill, the negro who
killed Noah Johnson and wife near
Cordele last April, was convicted of
murder and sentenced to hang on
July 18th. Johnson and wife moved
from Terrell county a short while
before they were killed. The con-
demned negro was brother of the
dead woman.
Hills crime is considered one Of
the most brutal in the recent crimi-
nal history Of this section. With but
a word about some money that had
not been paid him by johnson for
work the previous week Hill armed
himself with a rifle and shot Johnson
to death and then proceeded to shoot
his own sister, Johnson's wife. She
died later.
The trial occupied but a short
time. Motion for new trial has been
filed.

The COST OF LIVING IS
NOW BEYOND ALL REASON
Once More Announced That Govern
ment Officials Are Going After
Pro6teering by Retailers.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The cost
Of selling foodstuffs in retail mark
cts will be heavily cut, and from 20
to SO per cent. now being charged
saved by the consumer. This was
learned today from officials now max
ing a sweeping investigation of the
clumsy expensive distribution through
retailers all over the United States.
Milk, according to the food ad-
ministration, costs from 40 to 90 per
cent. more than it should.
Meat costs from SO to 100 per
cent. more sold in retail stores than
it does at the wholesale dealers place.
This excessive charge for handling
meat is largely due to heavy costs for
refrigeration plants, clerk hire and
prohteering, it was said.
Meat packers are known to be the
largest commission merchants in the
country. They are said to have large
interest in eggs, butter, cheese and
other dairy products. All these will
come in for a thorough investigation
to determine a reasonable basis Of
profits.

LOOKING TO END OF WAR;
PLAN TO BRING MEN Home
Task viii Require Two Years Unless
the Allies Agree to Devote All
Shipping to the Work.

The first step looking toward the
return of men and equipment from
the United States engaged in the con-
fict in Europe was taken in the SEN
ate when Senator Cummins intro
duced resolution expressing it to
be the sense of the senate that the
United States and allied nations en-
gagged in the war should enter into an
agreement that all shipping facilities
should be utilized without discrimi-
nation after peace is declared in re-
turning troops and war equipment.
The senator declares that unless such
an agreement is made it will require
more than two years for the United
States to accomplish the task of
bringing home the American army
from France.
Senator Cummins in supporting his
resolution declared that when peace
comes England will be 80 miles from
home, France will be at home, Italy
will be at home and the United
States will be 5000 miles from home,
with 100000 soldiers and with an
almost inconceivable volume Of war
materials to move.

READY FOR MEETING
OF The LEGISLATURE
ANNUAL SESSION WILL CON-
vENE TOMORROW. SOME IN
TERESTING MEASURES.

ATLANTA, COLLABORATING has
been put in readiness at the state
canitol for the meeting of the Geor-
ola legislature, which will convene
for the 1918 session on tomorrow,
June 26th.
A corps of scrub and broom artists
has been busy getting rid of all dust
and dirt in the halls. The windows
have been washed, the galleries swept
out for constituents, and the ice wa
ter coolers put Sin condition"
It is anticipated there will be a
compulsory work bill, requiring ev-
ery able bodied man between the ages
of 18 and As to work at least five
DAYS in the week, regardless of any
income which they may derive with
out work. This is a war measure in
dorsed by Governor Dorsey, by the
state council of defense and the ma
tional council of defense.
Interest also attaches to the pro-
hibition amendment to the federal
constitution, which will come up for
consideration at this session. There
appears to ge widespread belief
that the Georgia legislature will vote
for it's ratification, although there
are many who take another view,
holding that it is not strictly prohi-
bitiOn measure.
Departmental legislation will de-
mand the usual attention, particular
" the matter of appropriations, the
last session having made appropria-
ton for only one year instead of
two. as has heretofore been the case.
The usual fight against the fee
system is also on the docket, and
there viii, no doubt, be a strenuous
effort made to substitute the salary
system in connection with county Of
fees.
New and more comprehensive
highway legislation will be asked in
order that Georgia may be provided
with a better system for road i'm
provements under all conditions.

TEXANS ARTISTIC HENS
LAY ILLUSTRATED EGGS
Owner Finds Animals and Humans
Pictured on Shells.

TEMPLE, Texas.-E. A. Barger, a
resident of this city, is extremely
puzzled as to what has happened to
the interior mechanism of his hens
in view of the queer decorations that
adorn the eggs they are producing.
The shells of the latter lately have
taken on all the aspects of an illus
trated magazine and picture gallery.
Pictures Of lady carrying a parasol,
the features of man, dragons, lions,
and other curious shapes are plainly
apparent on the shells and are woven
in the texture thereof
Mr. Barger is at loss to explain
the phenomenon, but is sure that no
nature fakir is at work, as he gath
ers the eggs himself and no oppor-
tunity is afforded for funny business
on the part of jokers.

ODD SENATORIAL
CUSTOMS YET PREVAIL
SNUFF BOXES, SAND FOR BLOT
TIERS AND QUILL PENS ARE
NOW MAINTAINED.

The senate still has customs that
are almost as old as itself, says the
New York Evening Sun. 1t moves
along in the same old way that it has
moved for the last 100 years or so
and apparently is satisfied to move
in that way. Nothing is ever changed
in the senate, even though times and
customs change on the outside.
For instance, good many years
ago it used to be the custom for all
gentlemen to use snuff. The senate
officially recognized the custom to
the extent of providing snuff boxes
for the senators. These boxes are still
there, and from time to time they are
retilled with fresh snuff despite the
fact that they are never used. The
boxes are near the lobby entrances
on the inside of the senate. Appar-
emily in the old days it was quite the
thing for a senator to take his pinch
of snuff before he took his place in
the senate.
There is also an official sharpen
er of the quill pens" for the senate.
This man is so designated on the
payrolls and is carried there by the
rules of the senate. For many years
there never was a call for quill pen
IN the senate until one day Senator
Lodge, of Massachusetts, happened
to go into the stationery room to ask
for quill pen.
The Man and His Title.
The man who originated the title
of "sharpener of the Quill pens" for
the senate was Charles N. Richards.
He has just completed his 55th year
IN the service of the senate. When
he originally got his place as an en-
ploye of the senate it was during the
civil war, after he had been wounded
and incapacitated while serving as a
soldier in the Union army. He receiv-
ed bayonet thrust through the jaw.
| There was not much for Richards to
do around the senate, but certain
senators wanted to be sure that he
was taken care of, so the title of
sharpener OF the quill pens" was
invented.
1t might be of interest to know that
the stationery room of the senate, of
which Mr.. Richards is now the super
intendent, still carries quill pens as
a part of its stock. There has been
no call for quill pens since Senator
Lodge got his many years ago.
On each senator's desk will be
found a small receptacle full of sand
for blotting purposes. This is another
relic of the old days. Of course, no
one uses sand for blotting purposes
any more, but the senate Is oblivious
of the fact and sand is put on each
senator's desk religiously, probably
by some employee who does nothing
else.

MORMONS GIVE THOUSANDS
OF BUSHELS OF THEIR WHEAT
Farmer Members Give One-Tenth of
Crops to Help the War.

The vast grain stores of the Nor
mon church, the outgrowth of the an
cient system by which the members
who are farmers contribute one-tenth
of their crops, have been placed at
the disposal of the food administra-
ton to help meet the needs of war.
More than 100000 bushels of the
wheat have been turned over to the
food administration in Utah from the
Mormon wheat storehouses.
The system of collecting tithes was
established by Brigham Young, first
head of the church, and the object
was to create reserve supplies that
would protect his people against a
day of famine.
When all the grain stocks are turn
ed over it will be the first time in a
generation that the granaries of the
Mormon church have been empty.

TERRIBLE FATE
OF CREW OF U-BOAT
AS MEN WERE SHOT TO THE
SURFACE THE AIR PRESSURE
BURST THEIR LUNGS.

Narrowing details of the destruc-
ton of one of the largest and more
recently constructed German subma-
rines are given in a dispatch from a
neutral correspondent at London.
This submarine was one of the last to
leave Zeebrugge before the entrance
to the harbor was blocked by British
forces on April "a
The U-boat struck a mine, and out
of the crew of 40 only two survived
on reaching the surface after a terri
BILE struggle with death for an hour
and a half, 20 fathoms below the
surface. Some of the crew commit
ed suicide, having lost all hope of
leaving the boat alive.
Air Pressure Fatal to Men.
The only chance of escaping was
to force open the coming tower and
the forward matches and trust to the
compression of air in one part of the
vessel to force each man like torpe-
do to the surface. The air pressure
in the submarine had become so high
that the great majority of the Ger
mans could not keep their mouths
closed.
The compressed air shot them to
the surface, and hardly had they
reached the sea level when the air
pressure burst their lungs and about
20 Of them sank like stones. The
survivors described the yells of the
men when the end came as the most
horrible noise they had ever heard
The attention of a British trawlel
was attracted and it FASTENED to the
rescue. The condition of the surviv.
ors showed that their experience hat
been of a dreadful character.

WANTS LABOR UNDER
MILITARY CONTROL
CROWDER URGES DRAFT AGE
LIMIT OF EIGHTEEN TO FOR
TY-FIVE FOR THAT PURPOSE.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The ulti-
mate CONSUMPTION of labor, with a
view thoroughly and effectively to
mobilize the nlan-power of the ma.
ton for actual fighting or war work
at home, is called for in the pro-
gram for changing the draft laws
that have been laid before congress.
Provost Marshal General Crowder
is the father of the scheme. He has
discussed it fully with the members
of the military affairs committee of
the senate and house during the last
few weeks, it became known today.
Wants Legislation.
General Crowder has urged that
Legislation be enacted during the
next four or five months increasing
the draft age limits from eighteen to
forty-five years, and in his talks to
the military committee he has frank
ly declared that one of the principal
reasons for the step is the necessity
of applying the ''Work-or-fight" rule
W HEu ABOVE the present QfaIC age
to reach the "work slackers" above
thirty years of age in addition to OBJ
tanning new fighting forces, and of
so applying it that the greatest pos
sible results for the successful prose
cution of the war can be obtained
from labor under direction of the mil
itary authorities.
Conscription of labor was provided
for in the original draft of the
changes that were made in the draft
laws several weeks ago, but it was
eliminated at the request of Secre-
tary Baker. who said that it was not
necessary Eat this time"
Comes Next Fall.
The proposed new legislation will
not make its appearance until next
fall, when the draft age limits will
have to be extended because of the
few men that will remain available
for military service through deple-
ton of class l of the present regis
tration, according to members of the
military committee.

ALBANY MAN GIVEN
A YEAR in THE PEN
WHITE MAN WHO DISCOURAG-
ED NEGRO ENLISTMENTs
is CONVICTED.

ALBANY, Ga.-A verdict Of gull
ty resulted in the case of the govern
ment against w. A. Eastman, tried
in the United States court here yes
terday on a charge of having violat-
ed the espionage act.
Eastman (Who is a white mani
appeared on the streets of Albany
last February, arrayed in the garb of
a convict, and preached to the ne
groes on the downtown street cor
ners. 1t was alleged that Eastman
told his hearers that the present war
is ''white mans war" in which they
are not interested, and discouraged
enlistments.
Managed His Own Defense.
The defendant appeared in court
without counsel, and, when asked by
Judge Evans if he wished a lawyer,
stated that he would rather conduct
his own case, but would accept the
services of counsel for the legal ad-
vice they might give. Two Albany
lawyers were appointed to assist him
in the case. Eastman examined the
witnesses of the state and spoke in
his own defense.
Eastman protested that he had
been misunderstood; that his patriot
ism equals anybody's, citing as an
example his sale of war savings
stamps on the streets of Atlanta and
other cities.
Eastman was sentenced by Judge
Evans to serve one year and a day
in the Atlanta federal penitentiary.
