ATLANTA BOARDING HOUSES
PUSH UP PRICES ON BOARDERS.
ATIxANTA, Ga., Nov. 17. —Mr. Score
Keeper! Ring up another for old
I .1. C. of L!
Boardiig houses have caught the
fever of increased prices, or have
been compelled to advance their rates
because the price of groceries and >
ether necessities is soaring—which-:
ever you choose to put it —with the:
result that bachelor boys and bachelor
men and bachelor girls and bachelor
maids, are having to dig down deeper
into their pockets.
There is no way out of it, declares
our fat friend, the landlady. Meat up.
Lard up. Flour up. Sugar up. Ev
erything out of sight. That’s the way
she dopes it out. And the worst o?
it is, for the boarders, that she’s tell
ing the truth.
f Miss Bramscomb talks interestingly
! cf the thrills of the war land; the pe>
iculiar Parisian topics; her passage
I through England. It seems that she
j had made all reservations on the Mar
, ir.a, and had left London for Glas
gow to take the boat. On reaching
. there telegrams advised her that all
bookings had been cancelled because
i the boat had been commandeered by
> the government. Immediately book
' ings were made for the Tuscania from
I Liverpool, and from that port she sail
ed safely to New York.
Miss Bramscomb leaves tonight with
Mrs. Richardson for Albany, where
i she will visit before going to her
home in Union Springs.

MCNAUGHTON’S PLEA TO BE
URGED BEFORE GOV. HARRIS
ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 17.—Expecting
no clemency from Hugh M. Dorsey, |
who was elected governor of Georgia
or. a platform denouncing executive
clemency, and pledging him to let the
law take its course in criminal cases,
Dr. J. W. McNaughton is making a
last appeal to the state prison com
mission in the hope that they will act
mavorably on his petition for a pardon
in time for Governor Harris to finally I
decide the case before he retires from‘
office.
Dr. McNaughton is now serving a i
life term at the state prison farm‘
near Milledgeville for the murder of
Fred Flanders, whom he was convict
ed of poisoning with arsenic. The ■
wife of Flanders, who was imptreated 1
in the alleged poisoning at the time 1
indictments were returned, was never
prosecuted, and this fact has been '
urged as one of the chief claims in I
behalf of McNaughton’s petition forj
pardon, it being claimed bv his at-I.
