Because they loved each other so, and because they feared separation, Louise Ontre and Nettle Day, two 15- year-old girls, went to the Chatta hoochee river Sunday morning, bent upon carrying out a suicide pact. Net tle had Jumped Into the stream and waa being pulled out by Louise, who sud- ■ denly awoke to the horror of suicide, Just as County Policeman Dunbar ap peared and took both the girls Into custody. “Because wo loved each other so." That Is the only- explanation offered by Louise Ontre. It Is a strange story of the Infatuation of two persons of the same sex. the second .tory based upon that circumstance which has startled Atlanta within a few months. The two girls are night operators at the Southern Bell Telephone Company. Louise Ontre, who L of German ex traction, lives at Hapevllle, while Net tie Day lives at 401 Houston street. Both nre bright nnd attractive. The two met several months ago, nnd the friendship which sprang up grew Into an affection that is unusual, even between girls, of that age.

Officer Dunbar arrived Just In time to aid Louise In pulling Nettle Day from she river. He sent them both to the police station, where they were registered on the "sleepere’ book, and on Monday morning Nettle's father ar rived and rescued his daughter. Soon afterward, Dr. Campbell, of Hapevllle, arrived and stated that a warrant eharglng lunacy had been sworn out •gainst Louise Ontre.

I. Thousands of dollars' worth of valuables were lost The sleeping guests were driven from their rooms pell inell down the stairs In night attire and many saved themselves by leaping from balconies. Aided by a high wind that blew In from the ocean, the flames were carried throughout the entire structure and within an hour nothing remained but the charred ruins. Absorbed In their efforts to extin guish the hotel, the firemen permitted the station to burn down. Dynamite was used to stop the spread of the flames. Two cottages were blown up arid several of the atores will have to go.

The tenement has long been known as "The Three Deuces" and haa been the very hotbed of Italian murderers. "Black Hand" tragedies were often traced to plottings In the house and the place had a criminal record not equalled by any other house In New York. While many respectable Italians lived In the place, It waa only because they were too poor to afford more de> alrable apartments. The house Is believed to have been fired by tho bursting of a bomb placed by a member of tno "Black Hand.” There was a terrlflr explosion at the outset, which caused a panic nnd made the tenants of the house enay victims for tho flames, which spread with mys terious rapidity. The Are waa.one of the worst the New York Are depart ment has battled with In years. When the fire companies began to arrive, mothers were standing on the Are escapes clasping their babies to their breasts. Husbands were clinging to their wives so that the latter might not leap to certain destruction. Throughout the entire building cries were • heard, but soon most of them were stifled, as the smoke poured through tho hallways.' Captain Albert Johnson and Detec tive Connors rushed up the stairs of a houso In the rear, the roof of which adjoins that of tha destroyed structure. Johnson dropped flat on the cornice, while Connors graspod his feet The fireman was slowly let down to where he could grasp the hands of Tommosso Gaxxlano, Mrs. Gasslano and their live children. Despite the great heat, the two heroic firemen stuck to their post and ono by one tho members of the family were dragged to the roof and then taken down stairs to the street. Teresa Gonda and her ^aby were also pulled across the gulf by Johnson and Connors. GREAT MOVEMENTS LED BY NEWSPAPERS .. .. th. newsnsner that hisses tbs trail which Is great.

IN NORTH ATLANTA That "lightning never strikes twice In the same place" Is an adage refuted by the experience of north’Atlanta cltl- tens. The severe electric etorm Which swept over the city at noon Monday appears to have spent Its force In north Atlanta, two houses being Btruck by lightning while the terrific thunder and electrical display was at Its height. The home of L. F. Daniel, a number of the firm of Daniel Bros., was struck by lightning at 18:80 o’clock and the roof and exterior of the building dam aged to the extent of about 11.500. The .peculiar feature of the accident was that none of the Inmates knew that lightning had struck the house un til It was found that the building was on Are. The fire department was sum moned and the blare waa extinguished with little difficulty. Tho home of J. D. Carter, 247 Pine street, which Is In the same locality, was also struck by lightning daring the storm. None of the members of the family were at home at the time nnd the house wae only slightly dam aged. According to statements made by residents of north Atlanta, this section of the city suffers more from lightning than any other section. ' The residence of Mr. Carter, ft Is sold, has been struck a number of times previously, while the residence of Dr. R. R. Klme, which adjoins that of Mr. Daniel, has also been struck by light ning on a Conner occasion. OF TIME FOR Majority Stands Firm For January Next. “A careful canvnss of the houso this- -morning discloses tho fact that our members nre standing firm for the bill—against any ex tension of time. They beliove that such extension of time to July of next year would precipitate an election, terrible in the fact that the state would be flooded and de bauched by the use of money nnd liquor. They further bejievc that six months is an ample time for the liquor interests to close out their business. “I confidently expect the pas sage of tho bill by nn overwhelm ing majority." After an animated and ofttlmes heat ed discussion, flatting more than one month, and continuing the all-absorb ing topic from Rabun Gap to Tybee, the prohibition bill will be finally put on Its passage In the lower house of the gonerat assembly Tuesday morn ing Immediately after the reading of the Journal. Whether the bill will come to a vote on Tuesday or whether tho amend ments which will bo Introduced will re quire more tlmo for discussion than Is at present anticipated, la u question which Is to some extent unsettled.

Should they fall In this they will try to secure a compromise on July ' 1908. The prohibitionists declare that they will not yield one day from the time already fixed for the bill to go Into effect, and doclare further that no amendments will be tolerated, with the exception- of those two which provide tlrnt wholesale dealers In alcohol may sell to retailers In this state, and that physicians may keep pure alcohol for uso In their practice. ^ In addition to these annulments, there Is one proposed by the houso temperanco committee which may be adopted.

In accordance with the terms of the agreement, the last act In the prohlbl tlon drama will be enacted behind closed doors, and In the presence of those only who are entitled by the rules the privilege of the floor. There will no crowded galleries, as has been the case heretofore, and therefore there will be no possibility of disturbance. Mr, Covington's Call. Although there la no doubt about the Anal result of the vote upon the bill, Mr. Covington, who Is one of the au thors of the measure In the house, has Issued a call to every prohibitionist In the house to be In his seat when the house convenes Tuesday morning. "The bill la ns safe as a baby In Its mother's arms," says Mr. Covington, "and It will pass as It now stands. The efforts of the opposition nre now con ducted upon placing an amendment so an to make the bill operative January 1, 1909, nr. In d^eat of this, for July 1, 1908. You see If the matter could be postponed until after the vote of the next primary, the state would have trouble with the prohibition problem.

"I notice a few of the merclnarles of the 'dear, dead days gone beyond recall' are on the ground. The Issues at stoke are erroneous, and we must be on hand to a man.

The entire tlmeJo be allowed the antis has been placeff at the disposal of Mr. Dunbar, of Richmond, and at the meeting Monday evening It will be decided by what speakers the time shall be rnnsumed. Mr. Wright, who has been designated as leader of the prohibitionists,, stated Monday morning that he will confer with Mr. Covington and other support, ers of the bill Monday evening and decide who shall be the speakers for the prohibitionists and the amount of time each shall be allowed. • The antl-prohlbltlonlsta Monday were strong In their assertion that there will oe no attempt at filibustering when the bill comes up for passage, and reiterate the statement made since the adoption of Mr. Candler's resolution that they will abide by their agreement and fight the bill upon Its merits alone. 'Boise, Idaho. July 29.—Charles IL Moyer, president of the Western Fed eration of Miners, is to be released on ball, according to the attorneys for the state and defense. The amount of the bond Is to be 326,000. George A. Pettlbone Is to bo held for trial. Haywood Is with his family, arrang ing to start for Denver tomorrow or Wednesday. Moyer will go with him Haywood's mother Is much Improved and she, too, will go home with her son. In administration circles -there Is a disposition to criticise Judge Wood for the Instructions he gave, which the Goodlngltes declare compelled the ac quittal of Haywood. Jurors say they would have acquitted Haywood with out any Instructions, because there \vu« no proof that Haywood was connected with the murder of Stvunenberg. Pettlbone will be tried early in Octo ber. Tho state will not say anything about Its plan to try Orchard. His case Is pending In Canyon county and Is continued from tlmo to time. Haywood's trial cost the state of Ida ho 1240,000. The tax-payers of the atnto are angry that such an expense should have been authorised on whut has proved a fiasco. Although Moyer and Pettlbone are under Indictment, It Is regarded as practically certain they never will be called to trial. Their lawyers will move for a dismissal of the Indictments, and It Is considered certain that the mo tions will be granted. Haywood spent tho morning at the bedside of his feeblo okl mother today. In. striking contrast t<> the abuse heaped upon him by Governor Goading and those who conducted fits prosecu tion, Haywood had only gentle words for the men who tried to hang him. "I have no feeling nor 111 will toward- anyono,” he said. "I am charitable to. ward all.” Tho finding of the Jury Is considered a great victory for union labor. It was under the moat pathetic circumstances thnt Haywood’s acquittal came. The Jury after having stood 10 to 2 for acquttal switched to acquittal, and as tho verdict wns read In court the men who had freed him wept. Haywood’s first move a free Meing freed was to telephone ftr his Invalid wifi-. Then he went to hi- 1 a..th,-r. In a statement he says he will Immediate ly return to his duties as secretary of tho Western Federation of Miners. ENGLISH PAPERS SCOLD U. 8. FOR RELEASING HAYWOOD. London, July 29.—The conditions in Idaho are severely criticised by the conservative Journals and the wholo United States comes In for a hard scalding as a result of Uis ll:u«'i.«l verdict.

Bryan passed through Peoria last night for a Chautauqua date at Madison, WIs., nnd first heard of the verdict at Boise, Idaho, lie said: I am very glad to learn of the ver dict, and that It was not guilty. I watched the trial and did not see how anyone could be found guilty on Or chard’s testimony. Every crime he charged was one he himself suggested, and It was shown he was In communi cation with the mine owners and at tempting to Induce the defendants to engage In crime.
