Some Pen Record
Ellen Lowry is among those who
believe in prohibition, so she said
as she left the courthouse for the
workhouse after being sentenced for
intoxication. Ellen, according to her
explanation, uses liquor for medici-
nal purposes only. She is i'll a good
deal, which may account for the
thirty-seven times she has been ar
raigned for intoXication during the
past eight years, the 1902 days she
has served in the workhouse, the five
fines, the seven suspended sentences
and the eighteen different pseu-
donyms.
Robberies are so much a part Of
the weeks work now that many pass
unnoticed. 1t is still possible for
the $50 a week insurance clerk to
get away with 100000 in a month; ;
for a seventeen-year-ol bride to pose
as a society girl and to. steal from
bathing companions at fashionable
beaches the house keys with which
to rob their city homes; for a pay
roll messenger to be robbed Of $4,000
in the presence Of a hundred inter-
ested spectators who thought they
were watching a friendly scuffle.
These are commonplaceS of life in
New York. But it remained for Mrs
Ethel Schachter to hold her baby in
one arm and a burglar in the other,
and to remain thus until a police
man arrived.

Amnesty for Debs
Will Be Considered
After Treaty Signed

WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-The ad-
ministration's intentions to defer con-
sideration Of the question of am
nesty for Eugene v. Debs and other
federal prisoners convicted under
wartime laws until after ratification
of the peace treaty with Germany
was made known at the White House
today after a conference between
President Harding and Attorney Gen
eral Daugherty.
DR.. Daugherty called at the White
House, prepared to discuss recon-
mendations concerning a pardon for
Debs, now imprisoned at Atlanta, but
the president was said to have taken
the position that decision on the case
of the Socialist leader and similar
offenders should await the conclusion
Of peace.
While officials would not disclose
the nature of Mr.. Daugherty's rec
concentrations, the administrations
decision to defer action was under
stood to be indicative Of a disposition
to deal with the war law offenders In
as generous manner as the facts OF
the individual cases would warrant.
Mr.. Daugherty'S recommendation
in the case of Debs are understood
to be the result of an exhaustive
study Of the Socialist leaders case
separately and also in it's relation to
other prisoners confined under the
same laws. The document, officials
said, was intended as the basis for
the administrators policy on the
subject of all imprisoned offenders

DAWSON HONORED
HEROIC DEAD TODAY
MEMORIAL EXERCISES THIS
MORNING WERE LARGELY
ATTENDED IN DAWSON.

From the first memorial day in 1867
down through the years the loyal
daughters of the south have annually
on the 10Th of April poured out their
hearts in loving tribute to the Conted-
eracv and all the sacred memories 1t
svmbolizes, and today the same strong
sentiment is finding expression IN
Dawson in a program arranged by the
Mary Brantley Chapter, y. d. C., to
commemorate the deeds OF the soldiers

this morning i'll the school auditorium.
All places OF business were closed as a
silent tribute.
The program outlined in the last is

bv the audience the invocation was
voiced by Rev. S. F. Lowe. "Charac-

PENSION MONEY IS
PROMISED AT LAST
ANNOUNCED THAT LONG DE-
LAYED PAYMENT WILL BE
MADE THIS WEEK.

1t has been announced that payment
of approximately one-half of the con-
! federate pensions for the present year,
including Terrell county, will be made
by the state not later than Wednesday
of this week
The payment amounts to $574, 845.
| 1t does not include the new pension
ers made eligible to receive pensions
for 1920. They must wait until the
condition of the state treasury makes
it possible to pay them. In the mean
time the pensioners who have been
on the roll three years, prior to the
new class of eligibles coming in last
year. will receive their money. They
will not, however, for the present, re-
ceive the increase of SIS a year passed
I'D by the legislature, for the reason
that the state is in bad financial con-
dition, and cannot pay them.
The present payment will cover one
half of the counties-those that were
forced to wait for the second payment
last year. and the pensioners in the
remaining counties will be paid later,
whenever the governor can raise the
money.
To pay the new class of pensioners
becoming eligible last year and to pay
the full amount due the pensioners
now about to receive a payment
would require, in round figures, ST.
100000 more than the state treasury
contains. In other words, there is to-
day a pension deficit of 81 100000 and
it win be much greater before the end
of the year.
The amount that will be paid the
pensioners in Terrell county is $500.
