This suit grows out of the arrest
and trial Of Mr.. Elliott in 1921,
when he was charged with the mis-
use Of something over $1,000 of
the banks money money. Mr..
Elliott was convicted in the Ber-

was obtained without evidence to
support it.
The case was then returned to
the Berrien court and the noIle
pressed. Mr.. Elliott now demands
damages declaring that his rrest
was illegal and without cause. He
also asks for something over five
hundred dollars which he claims is

partments of the municipal gov

ney. Ii the amendment is voted
down council will name the off

ments.
Should the amendment carry the
election of the city manager would
be made by city council, who would

at any time by a majority. The
city managtr question is not being
discussed much and just how it will
1are at the polls can't be known
until the vote is counted.

MANY GEORGIA WOMEN
ARE UNAELE TO VOTE

ATLANTA, Sep. 26. - Under
the Georgia State law giving wo-
men the right to vote, those who
registered in 1922 and who failed
to pay a poll tax tax for that year
were ineligible to vote this year,
so they were deprived of casting
their ballots in the bond election
last week. The women were not
altogether to blame, however, as
the law is rather tangled and
might be construed either way.
Under the law, the ladies will have
to keep -their poll taxes paid each
year, from the time the suffrage
laws was passed, or they will lose
the right of franchise.

sleep all night for thinking of the
treasure you had described. And
even now I need your emphatic
assurance that it mt all a dream.
(AnciOuS'y)-You are quite sure
that it isn't imaginary?
BENSON (t0ith firm Sntite)-It's
real. A fact. l discovered 1t acct.
dentally last week by the fouling
Of my fishing net. Then, suspect
ing the obstruction to be wreck,
had the spot dragged with Crap
nels. Yesterday l satisfied my
curiosity by diving below.
BLAIR (tOith sharp gGsp)-Jove!
It's like t ings read when was
boy!
BENSON-It's not the first wreck
I've encountered in my under-sea
explorations. But | find these
sunken derelicts too cruelty tragic
to be romantic.
BLAIR Nth keen eG0erneSS)-But
you are positive there is treas
ure? You are sure that you saw
gold?
BENSON (1Dith q slight Shru0)-
What the element of the metal
was I couldn't say. But In peer
ing through the shattered ribs of
the vessel saw c. ms which had
originally been packed i'm small
barrels. The wood having been
riddled by worms, had fallen
apart and left the coins stacked
up barrel-shape. 1t was thickly
covered with sea-0oze and | did
not disturb it.
BLAIR Observation-Disclosures found
treasure-and left 1t untouched!
BENSON (tOith a droH smiIeJ-It
wasn't mine.
BLAIR (toith tinge of erGSperG-
tion)-Oh, come now! Aren't you
strutting a bit?
BENSON-In any case, the coins
are there-intact (stdria0 prob
tnOIv into BIGir's eveS). Because
a man has the misfortune to lose
his property and ! find it-does
that make 1t mine?

into that waving green jungle /
go in search Of a priceless thing

BLAIR (0ith rescntDsemt)-I dare
say! That's very splendid. But
the secre Of your exalted attitude
is that you already are a rich
man!
INEZ (interrWpting frettWlly)-Oh,
dear me! Why are you two for
ever quarreling? l haven't the
slightest faith in this treasure
tale. ITO BIGty)--As every one
knows, Hubert has O. mania for
prowling around twisting weeds
and other horrible atrocities.
And not content with invading
this inhuman region himself, he
is trying to lure YOU into it!
BLAIR (dOgOedly)-That's all right.
I'm GAM to go.
BENSON (tCGrm1v) II should
strongly recommend 1t. You came
on this cruise to see life. You
wanted to learn about the laws
and substance of the universe
Well, in a measure I will show it
you. There's more to be learned
from the grim depths Of the sea
than there is in the beauty of the
stars. Dreams and theories lie
above our heads. But beneath the
surface Of the sea there is a fun
damental lesson for you!
