it adjourned for the day. The crd
came unexpectedly, it having been an
nounced earlier In the day that he
was doing better and that an opera
tion which it had been thought neces
sary to perform for an affection of
the kidneys would be avoided.
The. Georgia senator had b-vn ft)
a little less than a month. At first it
was thought he had fractured r rib by
a fall, an illness attended by a high
temperature set in. Later examinations
and X-ray phoiographs disclosed, how
ever, that an affection of the kidneys
the exact nature of which it was im
possible to determine was the cause.
Two days ago,' the senator was taken
to a hospital where he sot along favor
ably and with a recession in temper
ature all thought of an operation weie
abandoned.
News of Senator Bacon's d ui'i o
.startled the senate that members
scarcely could credit the first informa
tion which was sent to the cloak
rooms by telephone. Senator Overman-
who first goi the word, soou verified
it and communicated it to his col
leagues. Ho immediately drew a bri-;:
resolution which was adopted and the
senate adjourned.
As soon as Vice President Marshal'
gavel had tapped the desk in signal
of adjournment senators remained in
the. chamber condoning the loss of
their colleague. The shock affected
many of them deeply. The scene on
the floor for several minutes after
th9 announcement was an ur. :sual
one. Senators paced nervously from
one group to another. Many of them
Were- so affected that they s'-.ircely
could speak.

Bond, $245 "and when Robertson came
back from Washington after the al-;
leged Gore incident, he demanded; Paris, Feb. 14. Jules Vedrines, who
band brought some medicines from that it be. repaid. Objections by coun-. recently flew from Paris to Cairo, ar-
the drug store and asked her if she ,sel for Mrs. Bond caused Fisher to '.rived from Egypt today and telephon
ed to two friends asking them to act
as seconds in his duel with ltene Quin
ton, president of the French Aerial
League. Vedrines will demand a fight
with revolvers.
The quarrel arose out of the refusal
1 of Vedrines to give satisfaction to
Henry Roux. a rival French aviator
who also had flown from Paris to
Cairo and who challenged Vedrines to
fight after the latter had struck him
iu the face. Quinton ordered Vedrines
to fight Roux and Vedrines replied
"I will not fight Roux but will light
you as soon as 1 return to Paris."

about the improper proposals Dr. tne d before the guit wag med

Robertson replied:
"Never mind you. You'll know what
it is about when you see the headlines
in the newspapers tomorrow. I want
you to serve the papers on a man who
has done me dirty. It will be sweet
revenge for me."'
The next, day suit against Senator
1 Gore was filed.
"I never did," she said.
"Why did you not?" asked Mr. Cans
ler. "Because Dr. Wooten's wife and my
husband were first cousins and Dr.
Wooten was a business partner of my
husband's, and I was afraid it would
cause trouble that way. Mr. Jetton
dir not. know he was visiting me and

Biographical Sketch:
United States Senator A. (J. Bacon
of Georgia was born in Bryan county.
Ga,, October 2ft, lb3?.. lie served
through the war and after the cur
render began the practice of law in
Macon. He was elected to the Georgia
legislature in 1871, and was promiueut
in public life from that time to the
present, a period of forty-three years.
He was declared to be one of the
finest presiding officers that, the Geor
gia house of representatives ever had.
On the death of Alexander H. Steph
ens, Bacon waa a candidate for gov-
rnor, and came within a hair's readtn
of being nominated. At the critical
moment, a recess was taken during
which the opposition combined and
nominated McDaniel. Several years
later he was a candidate for the gu
bernatorial nomination, but was de
feated by General John B. Gordon.
In 1894 he was elected to the United
States senate, and served bis state
continuously! at Washington since that
time. As chairman and member of
some of the most important commit-
Ltees at Washington, Senator Bacon
had long been a national figure, and
his post under the Wilsci adminis
tration as chairman of the committ.
on foreign relations was an office
which carried with it recognition of
the highest qualities of statman-ship.

"No."
"Do you thing this large number
of men went out on imaginary griev

"Many men left the state before
the strike was called, others quit
work because they believed what
