This sophisticated, blase and eynier.l Gotham toasts no less than 7,000 inhabitants, mr.l? and female, who make their living by telling fortunes, crystal gazing, reading of coffee grounds, palmistry, phrenology, clairvoyance, occultism, magic science and somnambulism.

And they don't exactly prey on the unsuspecting and unwary hick either, who comes to town with i jthe responsibility of selecting the of competency and loyalty to their constituents. Under Formwalt's leadership they carried an administration notable for efficiency and the creation of improvements that were much needed by the citizens. Form wait was succeeded by Benjamin F. Domar, promoted from the council in which he had helped to lay the lines of advancement. He was a popular chief magistrate and his name is indelibly written upon the, city's honor roll.

Following Bomar was Willis BuelL, who carried on with zeal and foresight the god works promoted by his predecessors. Jonathan Norcross was next elected for the specific purpose of putting the raigned before Drother Jonathan and a packed audience curious to see what would happen. The rough-neck was pronounced guilty and ordered to jail. He jumped into a defensive positioii and whipped out a cruel-looking weapon that was a cross between a Turkish scimitar and a Cuban machete, lie dared the whole company to lay hands upon him. but Sheriff Allen Johnson's big stick fell viciously on his arm and his huge knife clattered to the floor.

Deputy Ben and Cicero Strong tackled the bully and dragged him through the panic-stricken crowd into the street. There in the darkness he wrenched loose and fled for parts unknown. Maddened the more by that failure to intimidate the mayor and police. II. It sings a song of mountains li 1 1 y-white with snow.

Under cover of night they loaded it with a charge of powder and rammed in dirt, and fired it at the door of the Norcross store at what is now Five Points. They left a notice to Mayor Norcross that if he did not resign and leave Atlanta they would next blow up his premises. They assembled their desperadoes in a building about the corner of Decatur and Ivy streets to await the Mayor's decision.

It was not long in coming. He called upon his fellow-partisans and they rallied in formidable number. by A. W. Mitchell, of honored memory, they besiegetl the outlaws and the cowardly outfit had the sense to surrender at discretion.

There were more than could be jailed, but the ringleaders were heavily fined and incarcerated. Thus that rebellion was supppressed. The next thing in order was to clean up their haunts. Slab Town was quickly vacated by its human rats and a party of disguised destroyers fell upon Snake Nation after dark and literally razed it to the ground. Its vicious vermin fled from the avengers and from the city.

The victory for law and order was complete and lasting, and it was a plume of honor to Brother Jonathan the rest of his life. General John F. Mims succeeded Norcross as mayor, but failing health caused him to resign and William Markham filled out lhat term and the succeeding one. After him came AV. M.

The denizens of Slab Town and Snake Nation had become open rebels against law and order, bidding defiance to both the police and public opinion. The decent people looked about for a man to make mayor who had the character and the grit to do battle with the lawless gangs and put an end to their dangerous orgies. Their concensus was that Jonathan Norcross could fill their requisition if any man could. So (hev picked him to lead the "Moral Party." To understand what followed one must know that "Brother Jonathan," as he was affectionately known among the Baptist deacons, was man from Maine.

He was the son of a clergyman, brought up with Puritan principles leavened by the Roger Williams freedom of conscience" cult. He was educated, strictly moral, kind of heart, but with the unflinching courage of a lion of Judah or Numidia. Because they knew him and what to expect from him, his name when put up for mayor became three anathema to the "Rowdy Party," as the free and easy element was called. That element played an old political strategem by naming as their candidate a better man than themselves, Attorney L. C.

Simpson, a former councilman. A sharp and somewhat bitter campaign ensued and ended with the election of Norcross. It is said that practically every voter in the city cast his ballot that day. When the result became known the rowdies boldly announced that Norcross should not be mayor and should he assume the office they would run him out of town. The threat did not appear to soak into Brother Jonathan.

He took the oath quite calmly ajid proceeded to be mayor of Atlanta. The rowdies soon tried to perforin their advertised program. They egged on one of their strongest bullies to "rough-house" the city, but the police promptly ran him in.

An Era of Heated Campaigns. From the year of incorporation until the advent of the great war in 1SU1 the city had a succession of able and efficient mayors. They were chosen from the ranks of the most trustworthy citizens: chosen because of their business abilities and their known loyalty to the best interests of the city. Some of them were reelected and some refused to be so honored, or burdened, as you will. The first mayor elected under the Atlanta charter was Moses W.

Form-wait, from whom Form wait street takes its name. He was an early comer from east Tennessee, where he was born and reared. This was yet Marthasville and he became at once an active promoter of thp town's development and was one of those who moved to incorporate it as a city with amide charter powers to forward its expansion and good repute. His election at the head of the new city government was the beginning of a new order in Atlanta the initiation of its proper civic career. The city council elected with him contained Benjamin F.

A movement has been started in Britain by a group of eminent men of letters and scientists to ak the powers to eliminate those clauses of the Verseilles treaty in which Germany acknowledges and confesses the crime of having started the war.

This group, headed by Arnold Dennett, is following the example of a similar movement in France. It is argued by these people that it was an act of arrogant militarism to impose on a beaten nation this "ignominious stigma" and now that the war fever has died down on both sides, especially since Locarno, the "base calumny" should be removed. It is also pointed out that the Germans did not willingly subscribe to these clauses in the treaty, but that their delegates appended their signatures only after making formal protest. The movement in France and Germany is but new evidence that the war is being viewed in a new light, viz, not as a (Ph.

Strangely enough the opposition to the Georgia lady comes from southern democratic women. They hold her "persona non grata" because she was a militant contender for the woman suffrage amendment, and they charge that she aided in picketing the white house in order to coerce President Wilson to favor votes for women.

By gracious, this looks queer. Here I started out to ease the anxiety of the high blood pressure neurotic about his condition, and I have succeeded only iu providing him with two kinds of blood pressure instead of just one which kept him worried before. Never mind. That is only two-thirds of it.

There is still another kind of blood pressure which must be mentioned, if only to add to the cheer of the occasion. Besides systolic and diastolic pressure there is the pulse pressure but I am happy to add that the pulse pressure is nothing serious, just the difference between systolic and diastolic pressure. People with high diastolic pressure may ordinarily take a reasonable amount of red or dark meat. Look out for that it is very dry humor. People with high blood pressure of any kind may take also a reasonable amount of light meats, fish, fowl, game, high, low or pedro.

Seriously, there is no scientific- ground for the notion that persons with high blood pressure may not cat meat. Onlj oc- Crosby Repudiates Charges of U. S. Wheat Monopoly Minneapolis, December 20.
