Guarantor subscriptions to the

Business Manager.
1t is not generally known that
the tri-city symphony manages to
give a series OF concerts each sea-
son backed by guaranty fund
which would seem pitifully made
quate to any similar organization
in the country. The highest guar
anty fund has been $1,000. This
sum in addition to admissions goes
to the support of the orchestra.
Members of the board feel that
in order to present the best posi-
BILE concerts by the aggregation Of
players, there must be more re-
hearsals. And this cannot be as
sured without additional pledges.
Instead of $4,000, the sum pledged
should be at least $4,000. Previ-
ously the smallest pledge was $25,
but in the future pledges as low as
$40 will be gladly received.

prominent Atlanta lawyer, will be
associated with Harry Gamble, the
New Orleans attorney representing
Mrs. Onezima Debouchelle in her
controversy with Asa G. Gambler, ac

Mr.. Howell denied the report, ex-

count of the flu and knows nothing
of the case except what he has read
in the newspapers.
On what appeared to be reliable
authority it was reported that Attor-

Howell on his visit here this week
and that Attorney Howell was the
one referred to in his statement on
leaving Thursday night, that he chad
consulted Atlanta counsel equal to

actly what he promises and will do
it promptly and in a workman-like
manner.

Doom, Holland, Nov. 3.-Painfully
impressed with the marked disap-
proval shown by friends of the late
Empress Augusta and by monarchist
circles toward his coming marriage
to the Princess Hermine, of Reuss,
former Emperor William has decided
to eliminate certain features of the
festivities planned in connection with
the wedding here Sunday.
The changes from the original pro-
gram have considerably simplified it.
One of the plans abandoned by the
ex-Kaiser is that of engaging an or
chestra to play the wedding music.
He has decided to content himself
with strains from the family organ.
The musical program includes Men

bridal chorus from Lohengren.

DETECTIVE TELLS
HOW TRAIN ROBBERS
WERECAUCHT in net
SLEUTHS HAD BEEN ALMOST
WITHIN SPEAKING DISTANCE
ROBBERS FOR TEN DAYS.
(By Associated Press.)


Memphis, Tenn, Nov. 4.-The rob-
berry of st. Louis & Sang Fran
cisco mail train at Seventy-Si, Mo-,
early Friday, in which jack ken
nedy, the Quail Hunter and Har-
vey Logan, two of the bandits met
their death at the hands of posse
of railroad special agents and postal
inspectors, was the nineteenth train
robbery in which Kennedy claimed to
have participated, according to Ed
Munroe, Frisco Railroad special
agent, leader of the posse.
From the time that Kennedy and
Logan left Memphis ten days ago in
the automobile in which they planned
to escape after the robbery, Munroe
said he had been almost within
speaking distance of the pair every
moment of the time. Following them
from Memphis to Cape Girardeau,
Mo-, Munroe secured an adjoining
room to them at hotel.
"On the morning before the rob-
berry I watched them cleaning their
guns" Munroe said. "When they
left for Seventy-Six we knew the
time had come to act. We gave them
plenty of time, and then followed
them. We threw up little breast
works of rock at point we knew
they would have to pass in getting
back to their car, and then waited.
"When they slowed the engine
down at the bridge at Wittenberg,
Kennedy, an old engineer, was at
the throttle, AS they jumped, Ken
nedy threw the throttle wide open.
GAS they approached the spot
where we were waiting l yelled to
them to throw up their hands. Lo-
gan fired in reply. Then the men
turned loose their shotguns. Both
bandits were killed almost instantly
The bandits, in their hurry to
escape left a large quantity of dyna-
mite, purchased in Memphis in the
mail car. They had evidently plan
ned to blow the car open if neces-
sary.

ATLANTA FORECAST
ALL DEMOCRATS
WILL WIN TUESDAY
There is Great Doubt. About
Some OF the Constitutional
Amendments.
CREATION PEACH COUNTY
HAS REEN LIVELY CONTEST
Governor HardWick Has Sent
Out Ballots to Each Ordinary
in State-There is no Of
ficiaI Ballot.

Atlanta, Nov. 4.-That all the Dem
Ccratic candidates Will win IN the
general election on Tuesday is the
prevailing opinion here in political
circles and while a number of the
regular party nominees are opposed,
it is thought that there will be suf-
ficient votes in the party to elect it's
candidates.
AS to proposed constitutional
amendments to be voted on, there
was considerable doubt and specula-
ton for various reasons. The amend
ment creating the proposed county of
Peach, with Fort Valley as the coun-
ty seat, has been subjected in the past
ten days to an aggressive campaign
of opposition by citizens of Houston
and Macon counties, from which the
proposed new county is to be created.
Another proposed amendment,
which semed to be in doubt is the one
creating the new Fifty-second state
senatorial district COMPOSED of Ber-
rien, Cook and Lanier counties. In
various counties in Southeast Geor-
gia in the neighborhood of this pro
posed new district there have been
put in circulation so-called 'tofficial
ballots" which contain no mention of
this proposed amendment.
More than usual confusion concern
ing the so-called "official ballot for
use in the general election has pre-
vailed in advance of this election. AS
matter of fact, as pointed out by
Governor Hardwick, there is no real
ly "official ballot" The law makes
it the duty of the governor to place
on the ballot the proposed consti-
tutional amendment previously pass
ed UP by the legislature. Custom of
years standing makes it incumbent
upon the governor to furnish the
county ordinaries, who are in charge
of the general eelction, list of the
Democratic nominees, and this is
called the "official Democratic bal
lot"
AS matters now stand, a voter has
the right to deposit in the ballot box
in a general election any sort of a
ballot he wishes to deposit. He can
write his choice On a blotter if he
wants to and put it in the box and
the managers in charge are required
to count it. Or he can vote for some
of the nominees of his party and
scratch the names of others.
Candidates running in opposition
to the Democratic nominees have no
way of getting their names on the
"official" ballot. There is what is
Official ballot. There is what is
called an "official Democratic ballot"
sent cut in specimen form by the
governor to. the ordinaries, and con-
tanning the names of the Democratic
nominees and also the proposed CON
stitutional amendments. The inde-
pendent candidates must depend upon
the voters to remember their names
and write them On the ballots. 9th
erwise, the independent candidates
must print and distribute ballots at
their expense containing their
names.
