Judge George L. Bell, of Fulton

Thursday ordering the police COM
mittee of city council to show cause
before him on March 10 why it
should not be permanently restrain,
ed from sitting in judgment on the
case of Chief of Police James L.
Beavers.
George c.. Spence, the chiefs at

Judge Bell. 1t contained various
charges against the police commit
tee, and charged the existence of a
political plot on the part of poll
ticians to gain control Of the police
department.
If the rule nisi Sis made a rule alb
solute after the hearing, the effect
will be to forever restrain the pres-
ent committee from placing Chief
Beavers on trial on any charges.
The petition makes the direct charge
that the committee was prejudiced

FLORIDA SHERIFF
DRIVES OFF MOB;
p Il ARRESTS MADE

PALATKA, Fla, March Ply
the Associated Press -Eleven mem
bers of mob were captured early
today and lodged in the Alachua Jail
after being repulsed by Sheriff Ha-
gan when they attempted to storm
the Putnam county Jail here and get
a negro prisoner.
More than fifty shots were fired
by the mob into the Jail, one striking
Sheriff Hagan in the left hand. The
sheriff slammed the Jail door in the
face of thes mob, which retreated
after shooting through the doors and
windows. A fifty-foot rope was left
behind.
A telephone message to the Alu'
chua authorities after the mob retret-
ed resulted in eleven of their num-
Der being arrested and lodged in
that Jail, A special grand jury is
expected to be called Immediately to
consider charges of assault to kill,
shooting into an occupied building
and conspiracy to commit a felony,
which authorities say will be lodged
against them. All Of the eleven are
white men.
The mob reached Palatka shortly
after midnight and authorities said
they did not think it was compos-
ed of over fifteen men. They went
to the Putnam, county Jail where
Lige Lawrence, a negro, was lodged
for safekeeping. Lawrence was
brought here after Crawford Smith,
white man, had been shot and
killed in place of business con-
Quoted by Lawrence at Gainesville,
Fla. 1t was alleged that Ed Law
renee, Il brother of the negro in jail
here, did the shooting.
When Sheriff Hagan opened the
Jail door, he OWNED the nature of
the visit and slammed it. Imne-
diately there was a fusillade of shots,
fifteen penetrating the door and the
sheriff lodged just in time, receiving
one wound in his left hand. After
shooting through several windows
in the Jail, the mob beat a retreat,
leaving their rope behind.

Toot-ankh-amen Is
Way to Pronounce
Ancient King $ Name

(Copyrlght, 1881
CHICAGO. Feb: 29.-Ore must
rot say Tut" but Toot," when
I-speaking of the Pharaoh whose tomb
has set all Psychologists guessing.
Authentic pronunciation of the
name of the great Egyptian king
who has come into such prominence
5000 years after his demise, was
established today for the learned by
Professor Ira M. Price, of the Uni
versity of Chicago.
Pharaoh Tut-ankh-amen prefer

his name to be long as in double 20"

self from the proletariat by his
speech, he must pronounce it that
way.
''Tut-ankh-amen means image of
life is Amon,' and in that meaning
lies the whole story of the king and
his magnificent tomb" said Profess
sor Price. Formerly King Tut's
name had been Naturalization, and
at that time he was not so popular
with his subjects. In fact, there was
the greatest danger of his being os.
TRACKED and stoned out of the land
as an unbeliever, for Anon was the
god whom the priests Of his land
worshipped while Atom was a god OF
a new cult, deit supposed to en-
brace all gods in one. By taking
the name Tut-ankh-aton, the king
allied himself with the new faith
and incurred the disapproval of the
priests.
But when he permitted the last
part of, his name to. be changed to
Amen he was rewarded for his
orthodoxy by the most magnificent
tomb which history has yet accord
ed to a sovereign of any land"

For Umbrellas Blow

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-Harry
WalIerstein, World war veteran, to-
day threatened suit against Senator
Caraway, Arkansas, who yesterday
pounded him with an umbrella after
an alteration on street car.
Wallerstein, slight Of build, much
smaller than Caraway. said he was
thrown against the senator by a
1urch of the car. Caraway, he
charged, gave him a vicious push. -
Wallerstein said he told Caraway
mot to be. crouch" and thought
that ended the matter The sena-
tor, however, followed him off the
car and struck him, Wallerstein
charged.
The senator pounced on me like
a wild cat," he said.
Senator Caraway declined to dis
cuss the matter.

Great Britain Stirred
Over Harvey's Speech;
Challenge Resented

LONDON, March 1.-(By the AS
sociated Press) Ambassadors Har-

he discussed the underlying causes
and the nature of Great Britains
war Indebtedness to the United
States, evoked expressions of dis
pleasure in British official circles
today and gives indication of caus-
ing considerable discussion.
The foreign office declined to
comment on the address, but it is
reliably stated that Ambassador
Harvey's remarks, particularly when
the case was put he virtually chal-
1enged the British government to
issue a statement refuting the Bal
four note Of last August, were con-
sidered to be unusual for a foreign
n
