PROHIBITION THE ISSUE IN GEORGIA

Selection of Successor to Hoke Smith Drawn on Liquor Issue. (Nation! Nw Association ) ATLANTA, Oa., Dec. 6. The permanent successor of Hoke Smith as governor of Georgia will be selected by the Democrats in a state-wide primary tomorrow. The campaign which closed today has been a very spirited one and has presented several unusual features. The term of Governor Smith in the ordinary course of events would have expired in July, 1913. The resignation of Governor Smith and the necessity of a special election to select his successor were brought about by the death of United States Senator Clay a year ago. Upon the death of Senator Clay, Joseph M. Brown, who was then the governor of Georgia, appoint ed ex-Governor Joseph M. Terrell to fill the vacancy in the senate, but the legislature early in the present year named Governor Smith in his stead. Mr. Smith accepted the election to the senate but did not go to Washington during the special BesHion of congress. He held on to the governorship until the middle of last month, when he resigned and was succeeded by John M. Blaton as acting governor. Mr. Slaton will continue to hold the office until the latter part of January, when the winner in tomorrow's primary will ucceed him. There arc three candidates, in the primary race. The first in the field was Col. J. Pope Brown of Hawkinsville, who formerly held the office of state treasurer. Then came Richard B. Russell of Russellville, a judge of the Georgia court of appeals. The last to enter the contest was ex-Governor Joseph M. Brown. The candidacy of "Little Joe" Brown added spice to what would otherwise have been a very tame contest. For several years Brown has been the tormy petrel of Georgia politics. When Hoke Smith was first elected. Governor Brown hekl the office of railroad commissioner. The political differences that had long existed between the two were not long in coming to a head and the result was that Governor Smith removed Brown from office. Brown Immediately began a campaign to succeed Smith in the governorship. He was successful in the primary and his election followed as a matter of course, for in Georgia the winner of the Democratic primary is as good as seated. But in his fight for re-election the victory was reversed and he was deefated by Hoke Smith, who again came into the governorship. The entry of Brown into the present contest for -governor naturally precipitated a renewal of the old-time bitter factional strife. The Smith adherents look upon Brown's candidacy as part of a plan of former Governor Terrell and the old machine to gain control of the Georgia Democracy and defeat Smith when he goes before the people for re-election as United States snator. Either J. Pope Brown or Judge Russell would be acceptable to the Smith faction in preference to Little Joe." The greatest difficulty facing the candidates ait the beginning of the campaign was the dearth of important Issues upon which to wage the contest. The old issues had been worn threadbare and no longer interested the people. Finally two of the can'dldates, J. Pope Brown and Judge Russell, decided that the question of prohibition should be the chief issue, though to the ordinary onlooker it would appear that the prohibition question had been disposed of as a live Issue several years ago when the prohibitory amendment was added to the state constitution. But the prohibition law, or rather the manner of its enforcement, has given rise to considerable public discussion and more ' or less dissatisfaction, while the alleged Intention of the liquor interests to start an organized campaign for the repeal of the amendment has served to further attract public attention to the question. As the campaign progressed it became more and more ! II For Eczema. Patient's Wristand Shin Itched Like Poison. Scratched Until They Bled. Says:" Cuticura Soap and Ointment Cured Me."

The Girl of At the Gennett manifest that the liquor question was to be almost the sole issue. Judge Russell is carrying the local option banner, while J. Pope Brown is an out-and-out. Prohibitionist and strenuously opposed to "any scheme that could possibly bring the legalized sale of liquor back into Georgia." Forfer Governor Joseph M. Brown is the only one of the three candidates who has declined to make the prohibition question the paramount issue. He has shown an inclination to treat the matter lightly from the beginning of the contest, though he has gone so far as to suggest that the question be left to the voters of the state. Personally, however, ex-Governor Brown is understood to have always been a consistent Prohibitionist. COLDS CAUSE HEADACHE LAXATIVE BROMO Quinine, the world wide Cold and Grip remedy, removes cause.

Alexander Heinemann, the celebrated German baritone, who will appear at the Gennett on Friday evening, is one of the great lieder singers of his day. His interpretative genius is amazing. In his recital given here last season in the Coliseum, and which was one of the most successful musical affairs of its class ever arranged in this city, Heinemann displayed his musical j and histronic talents in all their ver- i satility. The recital to be given this week will add eclat to the musical season as known in Richmond and will be an interesting commentary, in its attendance, upon the local status of the musical art. E. G. W. "McFadden't Flats." "McFadden's Flats," which comes here shortly, will be a much augmented organization since last seen here, and consists of some thirty performers. The piece has been entirely rewritten, new specialties and musical numbers introduced, and will appeal more than ever to the risibilities of the audience. The specialties and musical numbers introduced during the three acts will long be remembered as pleasing and entertaining. The scenery is said to be on a spectacular order and the handsomest ever seen in farce comedy. Cowboy and The Thief. One of the most interesting of the western plays that the season has disclosed, is "The Cowboy and the Thief" which comes to Richmond to the Gennett on next Saturday, matinee and night. It is said that the scenic equipment with this piece is very beautiful, having been made from sketches which the author. Mr. J. Wendel Davis, made while touring the country where he laid his plot. The play itself tells a story of a brother's love for , brother and bears out the old saying that 'blood is thicker than water.' The ranchman in and around Golden Ranch, Colorado, have been troubled with cattle thieves; suspicion has centered about the Cowboy's brother and he has been proven a thief. It is around this central incident that the play Is built. There is a great love story intertwined and many comedy situations follow rapidly upon each other. Music which is always a pleasing feature to any show, abounds ia

The play has been on the (big time) circuit and brings to the smaller towns the same equipment that was employed in New York, Chicago, Philadelphia and other cities. Dockstader Minstrels. Lew Dockstader and his Great Minstrels will be seen at the Gennett on Monday night, Dec. 11. This season's production will, it is claimed, outshine all previous efforts in minstrelsy, far surpassing anything produced heretofore in the history of burnt cork. The name of Dockstader stands always for something new and original in minstrelsy, and the many lovers of this form of amusement will welcome the coming of Dockstader and his all star aggregation of funmakers. Neil O'Brien, the famous minstrel, is again one of the features of the show. Among the other well known artists are Manuel Romain, "Happy" Naulty, "Les" Copeland, Pete Detzell, Master : Leo, Roy LaPearl, Henry DeCunea, j Don Ferrandou, Major Nowak and six!ty other burnt cork artists. The day or the show, Roy LaPearl, the man with the biggest musical voice in the world, will sing from atop the Second National Bank building accompanied by Dockstader's band from the street. At The Murray. The show at the Murray this week is by far better than anything that has preceded it for some time. There is plenty of variety to it and it takes from the very start. The Prosit Trio, three acrobatic clowns direct from the Ringling Circus open the show with some acrobatic stunts that are very clever while their work as clowns alone could win them a position on any bill. The Mus-Art Trio have an act that is especially neat and out of the ordinary. All three of the young men have very good voices and sing a number of catchy little songs with a vim that is contagious. Several numbers are illustrated by one of their members by means of some very clever drawing with crayons. Brooks and Vedder in ther jolly nonsense are one of the hits of the show and keep thei raudience convulsed with laughter. Miss Vedder Is especially clever as a comedian. Giving ideal impersonations of Kellar, Thurston and the Great Herman, the Great Eldon at the Murray this week should prove one of the finest drawing cards that Manager Murray ever had. Conscious During a Fall. Every time a workman falls from a forty story building there are people to say. "Well, he probably didn't fee! it when he struck." There is little 01 no basis for this belief that a person is dead or unconscious at the end of a long fall. Our surviving jumpers front j 1 & r - . .1 Brooklyn bridge prove this, and thai a person retains consciousness if shown by the case of the English boj who fell down a pit some 250 feet deer and shouted "Below V three times or. the way down. One theory is that person falling would not be able tc breathe, but a train at sixty miles at hour is moving faster than one wonlc move in falling a hundred or so feet and no one pretends that .one would die of suJocation if he put his head out the train window.

This remedy was of greater benefit to me than any other I ever took for disordered kidneys. I was afflicted with kidney and bladder trouble and was 1 caused much annoyance by too frequent passages of the kidney secretions. Backache kept me in misery and there were acute pains across my loins. I slept poorly, was tired and j languid and had but little strength. Seeing Doan's Kidney Pills advertised.

An exceedingly busy day is in prospect for the Western States' governors who are due to arrive in the capital tomorrow in the course of their "gettogether" tour of the Eastern cities. A reception committee will greet the executives upon their arrival. The initial feature of the program calls for their attendance at the forenoon session of the National Rivers and Harbors congress. At luncheon they will be the guests of their State delegations at the capitol, and afterwards they will be guests of the Washington Chamber of Commerce and will be given an automobile jaunt about the city. In the evening they are to be entertained at dinner at the White House and immediately after taking leave of the President and Mrs. Taft, the governors will depart for Baltimore. Wrong Diagnosis. Mrs. Slingchiu put her head over the feuce and thus addressed her neighbor, who was hanging out her washing: "A family has moved into the empty house across the way, Mrs. Mangle." "Yes, I know." "Did you notice the furniture?" "Not particularly." "Two loads, and I wouldn't give a sovereign a load for it. Carpets? I wouldn't put 'em down in my kitchen. And the children! I won't allow mine to associate with 'em. And the mother! She looks as if she had never known a day's happiness. The father drinks. I expect. Too bad that such people should come into this neighborhood. I wonder who they are." "I know 'em." "Do you? Well, I declare! Who are they?" "The mother is my sister, and the father is the superintendent of the Sunday school." "Oh ah nm! Do you think it's going to rain?" The First Tooth Festival. Among the Syrians there is no such thing as giving a party in celebration of the first anniversary of the birth of a -child. The celebration is held when the baby cuts its first tooth. On such an occasion friends of the parents are uot Invited to the house to eat cakes and listen to a phonograph, but whatever sweets may be prepared for the occasion are sent by the parents to the homes of the friends whom they wish to Inform of the news. The friends later visit the parents and tender their congratulations. The dishes in which the sanainieh is carried to neighbors and friends are not returned immediately. Sometimes it is a week or even two before they are back in their customary places in the family cupboard. When they are returned they are not empty.

Some Gossip Gathered From The Gay American Metropolis

NEW YORK. Dec. 6. New York is getting to be quite an old city and it is becoming more and more common to hear of golden or centenary anniversaries of institutions endowed with sufficiently strong vitality. St. George's Episcopal church, in Stuyvesant Square, celebrated the one h'indredth anniversary of its independent existence the other day. St. George's is now the largest single Protestant parish in the world, administering directlv to more than 7,000 persons. j The First Presbyterian Church of I Brooklyn recently celebrated its nino- i tit-th anuhersary, which was made! memorable by a gift of $100,000 to the church by Mrs. William Van Rensselaer Smith in memory of her deceased husband v ho had been a Trustee of the church for twenty-one vears. St. Peter's Episcopal Church in West Twentieth street became eighty years ag,har,d' nhVaP. tT. enty fifth anniversary of its founding. ' The cornerstone of the Fourth St. Thomas's Church, at Fifth Avenue and Fifty-third street was laid the other day with appropriate ceremonies. The i first church was established on October 12. 1823. The third church, which

this temporary structure the new edifice is now building. It will be of solid masonry, without steel girders or arches and it is said that it will be the most costly church for its size ever built in the United States. The temporary structure will remain undisturbed during the building operations and will only be removed after the nw church has been completed. A bronze tablet giving a Drief of Maiden Lane, the old and famous 1 thoroughfare which forms the seat of I the jewelry trade in New York, was j unveiled a few days ago. It was doj nated by Edward Holbrook, President I of the Gorham Manufacturing Company, to the Maiden Lane Historical Society and gives the following history of the street: "Called 'T Maadge Paatje in the days of New AmsterI dam, being a rural path beside a stream, still marked by the curved line of the present street, known during the early English period both as Green Lane and Maiden Lane. Laid out as a street in 1691. Began to assume the character of a jewelry district about 1840." The inconsistency of some women is really astounding. A short time ago a woman drove in her automobile
