Dec. 18.- Tin? At lanta grand jury is again in the midst of a sensational investigation of the ?city's fashionable clubs, to determine whether or not their sale of bever idges to members violates the prohi bition laws. The jury has found itself jhamlicanncd by having nearly ?-vory 'juryman a member of at least one j such c lub, aud has got around this {disqualification question hy using al ?t?rnate jurymen. A Juryman who la a member of the Capital City Club will retire while that club is uuder consideration. He will come hack, however, t > paHa on the Piedmont Driving Club or any other of which he is not a member. The cour: takea the ingenias posi tion that a member of one club will have no sympathy for another. Jurymen whose relatives arc club members are barred, and this brought from one member a protest. "How about you fellows whose daughters attend every club dance?" he asked. "That's as close us being kin to u club member." It waa expected that little will come 1 of t>'c investigation, which has been undertaken several times before. Forrest Adair, for many years po tentate of the Yaarab Temple of Shrl !ners. has been re-elected for another year, after a good natured race in j which he defeated Walter P. Andrews, almost as popular In Atlanta as Mr. Adair himself. Clans for sending a big I delegation to the Seattle convention next summer are being put under way. The Shrluera won a point in a? law suit this week, when Judge H. L. *>at teraou of the Blue Ridge circuit, is sued a temporary injunction prohib iting the negro order which calla it self the "Ancient Egyptian "Order of Noblea of the Mystic Shrine" from using the . word "Shrine" in its title. Judge Patterson was called upon by thc local temple for the reaaon that every' local judge la a ahriner and therefore disqualified. Mr. Adair led the movement to stop the African or der from using the Shriners' name and insignia.

It happened because ho slum bered in a bath room in the new Elks club until long after the building was u closed and l>e servante disappeared, d When Mr. tJohcrty.awoke he found y j his way to the malu floor and located Ithc front door. To hia delight it open ed easily and when he clsed it behind him it locked. Then to hlB dismay he found that a handsome steel grilled door still barred his "path to the side walk. He was then between two doora, both of which were firmly locked, ann I with the morning wind whistling past. Doherty yelled until ho awonc me neigh! ors, who called the police. The cops broke off thc look with their clubs and Doherty hurried to the ho tel where the steam radiators were in full blaat. Another, and perhaps the Anal, ef j fort to save the life of Leo M.

Unofficially Reported by Pastors | I of Various City Churches. Owing to the non-attendance of sev- j eral members of tho commi'.ee. and I believing that a more satisfactory ? statement of results obtained could be had after the approaching Sun- | day. the local committee in charge of the canvass fer donations to the Belgian Relief Fund decided upon meeting at the ('bamber of Commerce I last night that an adjourned meet ing of the committee would bo held J Monday afternoon at 8 o'clock at the same place. Last ni>:i i' was the time let for the committee and : other 'interested pertons to. gath- ! er at the chamber of commerce j and determine the results of the can- ! vass fo the Belgian Relief Fund, and also discuss the matter of local char- | Ry, the community Christmas tree ! idea and other matters of a kindred nature. Only a very few persons, some of them not members of the committee, repaired to the chamber of commerce last night for the meet- I lng, which had been widely adver- I Used. i After it was seen that not enough members of the committee would be pnd hand to transact any business and that not enough persons at large were present to take up the matter of or ganizing a local relief measure, it I waa decided to adjourn thc meeting until Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock. I This move was also considered ad visable for the reason that several eubscrlption envelopes, which were distributed last Sunday, had not been turned In. Dr. Fr'-er of the First I Presbyterian church 'ported that the envelopes distribute among his con gregation had not been collected. Members of this and other congrega tions of the city who have received these contribution envelopes are ear nestly requested to turn them In Sun day to their respective churches, with the words "For Belgian Relief Fund" plainly written on the envelopes. I It was unofficially reported last .night that the collections from thc .congregation of Episcopal church amounted to some $35 or $3? dollars, that the sum of $2150 had been col lected from thc congregation of the First Baptist church, that some $50 would be received from the Para mount theatre and that some $14 would be turned over by The Intelli gencer, this amount having been col lected In a campaign started by this paper before any movement of this nature was started in thc city 'through any other agency. on his devotion and his ability. "To say that hy his death the senate lost oue of its ablest and most ex perienced members feebly expresses thc truth." said Senator Smith. "He came to thc senate splendidly equip ped for his work. He gave to thc du ties of the senate all of his ability and all of his life. Service as a senator was the though and Joy of hts life. He brought to the service a devotion rarely equalled and never excelled." Senator Thomas W. Hardwick Join ed his Georgia colleagues tn eulo? glzing upon the former statesman, and seven other scuators from as many states patd glowing tributes to Senat or Bacon's memory. The Atlanta police force, which bas had its hands full with burglaries and hold-ups recently, has been Increased by twenty-three men for the Christ mas holidays, when atreet traill? ia heaviest and when ntckpockete Und burglars are busiest. A strong effort is being made to find fundB for a permanent increase of the police force. Atlanta covers an unusu ally wide territory .even for her large population, and it is Impossible for the pr?tent force adequately to cover lt. It ls a common remark for a citizen to make that: "1 haven't seen a police man in my home atreet In yean. My children don't know what a policeman, looks like."
