LIFE OR LIBERTY OF MADINE,
'HARTJE WITNESS, MENACED
lly t’rlrste trered Wire.
Pittsburg, Pa., Aug. 87.—It was
learned today that a well-planned at
tempt was made to either kidnap or
murder *Tom Madlne, the coachman, a
day or two before he went on the
stand In the Hartje divorce trial. - A
telephone message was sent to a livery
stable where Madlne was working,
nsklng him to meet Attorney John
Freeman, Mrs. Hartje'a chief counsel,
at a certain place that night. The
message was delivered to Madlne, and
because of the lonely nature of the
meeting place, he became suspicious.
He called Attorney "Freeman, who
knew nothing of it. Then a plan was
laid to catch the parties. With several
detectives, Madlne went to the place at
the hour named, but Just as they
neared It fire men dashed afray In an
automobile which had been drawn up
at tho side of the road In tho shadow
of some bushes. Since then Madlne
has never been without a guard. He
returned today from Atlantic City,
where for two weeks he has not been
from under the eyes of his guards day
or night.
SUN DA Y SPREES ARE CA USED
BY INHALING "AUTO JUICE”
By Prlrsto Leased Wire,
St. Xxmli, Mo., Aug. 27— Gasoline Is
the latest addition to the long list of
Intoxicants. A number of young men
In the vicinity of Marcus and St. Louis
avenues have discovered Its Intoxicat
ing qualities, according to John E. Mc
Kenna, deputy United States collector.
The gasoline Is not drunk, but In
haled until one has accumulated enough
to produce a sort of drunk. A gallon
of gasoline Is sufficient to set a small
army tipsy.
Aside from the economy of the spree
is the fact that one can be got on
Sunday, ns the slate laws da not re
quire merchants selling It to close.

TRY A WANTAD"
IN THE GEORGIAN
Will the Populists hold a convention
In Atlanta Tuesday 7
Nobody seems to know definitely
what will he done about It. Judge J.
K.- Hines says there w|ll be no com-
ventlon; J. E. Bodenhamer, who Is not
secretary of the state executive com
mittee, according to J. A. Bodenhamer,
committeeman from ‘tho Seventh dis
trict and editor of the Dalton Herald,
a populist organ, says there will not
be: Chairman J. J. Holloway In a
card to The Georgian Saturday said
there would .be a convention.
So there Is the conflict of opinion.
The Georgian Is In receipt of a letter
from M. A. Bodenhamer, of Dalton,
who writes on the letter head of the
Dalton Herald, and signs “The Dalton
Herald, M. A. Bodenhamer." He says
that the state coipmlttee alone has the
power to call oft the convention for
Tuesday, and not Chairman Holloway,
J. E. Bodenhamer (who Is not secre
tary of the committee) or any other
Individual. In conclusion the writer
says: "From the tone of the letters
received dally there WILL BE a con
vention on August 58."
What Holloway Asks.
A clipping from tho Dalton Herald
of August 23 Is enclosed containing an
open letter from Chairman Holloway
He says that Tom Watson In a letter
to him advises that no convention bo
held and no ticket be put out. Wat
son suggests that he confer with the
committeemen and get a consensus of
opinion along this line.
Chairman Holloway then proceeds to
propound several questions to the com
mitteemen. He first wants to know
whether It will be best to call off
the convention of August 28 or wait
1 and see the result of the primary of
August 22 (the letter Is dated August
18.) The third question Is as ' '
lows: ' • .
"Or shall we meet and declare our
complete divorcement from the Demo
cratlc party, farm a mammoth Peoples
Party Club, and declare our adherence
to the rill of the majority of those
who will enroll as Populists, thus lay
ing the foundations anew for the on
ward march of Populism, and express
our undying determination to have a
full ticket In the fleld at at) early
date for the next campaign regardless
of what the Democratic party may
do?"
Quotes Tom Watson.
Editor Bodenhamer comments
length on this question. He Intimates
that neither Tom Watson nor Judge
Hines has atiy right to advise or at'
tempt to dictate any policy or course
of conduct to the populists, since both
have, at least temporarily, enlisted
under the Democratic banner.
He says that as the committeeman
from the Seventh district he favors
holding the convention and placing a
ticket In the fleld, and concludes:
"We are In favor of atandlng by and
building up the Peoplea party becauao
of the prlncllpea It -advocates. Those
principles are the same today as they
were when Mr. Watson made them
the following glowing appeal:
' " The clouds gather, 1 know, and the
storm and darkness come upon the
land. The weaklings periqh: tne bird*
of the day fall and flutter and perish.
But the eogle-Mie of the ares—strong
of wing and dauntless of heart, rises
against the storm, beats his way thro'
It and beyond it, and gives a fierce
cry of Joy ax he bathes hla wings In
the sunlight above the cloud*. Oh,
spirit of Populism! Be thou the eagle,
to rise against the darkness and. the
storm, and to live In the sunlight be
yond when the tempeet l« past- and
gone.’",
State Committee.
The state executive committee of the
Peoples party Is as follows:
J. J. Holloway, chairman, Clem, Go.
First district, Colquitt Daniel, Hogan,
Go.
Second district, J. H. Parrish, Syl
vester.
Third dlatrtcL H. M. Searcy, Davis-
ton.
Fourth district, R. B. Goston, Car
rollton.
Alternate, C. T. Hensly, Villa Rica.
Fifth district, C. T. Parker, Atlanta,
628 Chestnut street.
Alternate, N. A. Farmer, Llthonta.
Sixth district, F. J. Vlnlng, Thomas-
ton. _ . .
Seventh district, J. A. Bodenhamer.
Dalton. . . "
Eighth district—None present—last
elected can act.
Ninth district, J. T. Waters, Gaines
ville.
Tenth district, W. J. Henning.
Eleventh district, O. B. Crone, Dixie.
So this appears to be the muchly
mixed situation. From present Indica
tion* It would seem that the only way
to definitely tell whether the Populists
meet on August 28 Is to wait far that
date.
Journey to Unknown Lind Under Guidance
of Two Religions- -Modern Christianity
and Old Wprld Mysticism.
Specie! to The tieortfsn.
Spartanburg, 8. C, Aug. 27.—Joe
Koon and John Golden, colored, were
killed at Cross Hill Thursday after
noon by lightning. They were sitting
In front of a fireplace In Oolden s house
during a thunder storm. Lightning
struck the chimney and both Oolden
and Koon were Instantly killed.
With pungent Incense from burning
Joss sticks mingling with fragrance of
snow white flowers, surrounded by
Christian teachers of the modern West
and soft-footed natives of the sleeping
Orient, Joe Lee. once a worshiper of
the Chinese gods, but o convert to the
religion of his adopted country, was
given his last Journey Sunday after
noon. Ills funeral was a strange com
bination of Christian services and
quaint old world rites and a striking
example of tho tolerance and breadth
of the churches of today. -
In far away Canton,-where fleets of
sampans ply upon the broad river and
thousands upon thousands of yellow-
skinned Celestials struggle for their
dnlly rice, n woman waits for the re
turn of the husband she wedded years
ago. It will be weeks before she learns
that she Is a widow, for the frugal
Chinese are not contributors to the
cable companies. But to her Joe Lee
can be but little more than a name, for
years have come and gone since he
left the child-wife to seek n fortune
In the land of the strange white devils.
Perhaps It was like many another Chi
nese wedding, a marriage ser\-lce, a
parting at the ship and a farewell for
years or forever.. More than half of
th* quiet wearers of th# queue in
America left a wife behind them In
the country of th* *mperor. For more
years than many of his customers
could recall Joe Lee kept hi* laundry
In Atlanta. Always he was found be
hind his table, starching. Ironing,
spraying the white linen from between
his teeth, while he hummed a droning
monotone In a language strange to
passers-by. Perhaps he was singing
of far away Canton, of the little yellow
wife who waited for his return, of an
old ago of wealth and ease In his own
country. But Joe Lee was destined
to penetrate the veil of the unknown
from an alien land, through n path de
spised by his ancestors.
Dead In His Bed.
A week ago a belated customer call
ed at Joe Lee's shop for his Sunday
morning laundry, but the shutters had
not been opened. An Investigation was
made and the body of Joe Lee was
found In his bed. His soul had winged
Its way to another land. Hla Chris
tianised friends called It heaven; the
adherents to the Chinese gode gave It
a name ae flowery ae only Otlentla!
poets can Imagine.
For a week the body lay af the un
dertaking establishment of Barclay A
Brandon. The thrifty Chinese waited
for another Sunday when every friend
might attend the funeral without lost
of a working hour. At noon Sunday
the Chinese services began. A Chris
tian ceremony followed, for Joe Lee
had long since become a convert
through the mission claassa of the
church— ,
But while the small class of Chris
tianised Chinese were willing to trust
th* spirit of their friend to the new
religion, those of the old faith begged
that they might make sure of Joe
Lee'* reception Into the world beyond
by guarding hi* spirit In their accept
ed way. Surely It could do no harm,
certainly It would relieve the doubts
of hla relatives In th* old country and
the new, for ssversl of Joe Lee's cou
sins followed him to Atlanta. Thus
two services were arranged.
The body lay In state In the chap*l
at*noon on Sunday, Great white floral
emblems, a harp, a white dove, a cross,
covertd the coffin from view. These
were the Christians tributes. Those
of the Chinese were of a different na
ture.

closely cropped oily hnlr, but all dress

America, the Chinese rites begnn. Won
Fou Sun SI conducted the services. The
others stood close by with never a ray
of expression In the slanting eyes, their
face* Impassive as though no such
thing ns death were In the world.
At the foot of the coffin burned sev
eral Joss sticks, the ends glowing In n
•park which sent up clouds of fragrant
smoke. Three tapers of red wax flamed
beside them. A few curious Americans
In the background looked on with In
terest.
Woo Fou Sun spread a cloth upon
the floor at the foot of their hl*r and
knelt upon It. Three times he bowed
before the coffin, his shnven head
touching the floor at each salaam,
few mysterious gestures followed,
cloth of rod nnd white wns waved
above the Incense nnd Woo Fou San
arose. The flowers on the bier were
removed and the eloth, an emblem of
the Chinese Free Masons, was laid
across the coffin and the flowers re
placed. A great platter of Chinese del
icacies, freshly cooked chicken, spicy
eurrles, bits of birds’ nests from the
old country, were laid before the coffin
thnt the spirit of Jos Lee might have
sustenenco on Its long Journey to the
gate of mystery.
As the minister and teachers of the
mission class arrived the joss sticks
and viands were removed. The Rev.
A. C. Ward, pastor of th* Temple Bap
tist Church, read the service of the
church in the usual way and the coffin
was borne to the hearse. One of the
Chinamen mounted to the seat beside
the driver.
To Bsffls the Devil.
THe route to Westvlow Cemetery
was changed to permit the procession
to pass the meeting place of tho Free
Masons on Hunter street. Twenty car
riages filled with Chinese were In line.
As (he cortege passed through the
streets the man on the hearse threw
Into the sir bits of tissue paper per
forated with hundreds of tiny holes.
There were to delay the devil In hla
pursuit of the spirit of Joe Lee, for
his majesty must pass through each of
the perforations and this would re
quire much time and enable the spirit
to reach the heavenly gates before the
devil could overtake It.
At the open grave In Westvlew a
curious crowd or hundreds waited for
the arrival of the procession. The cu
riosity seekers were given little to In
terest them. A few colored cloths were
E tled at ths foot of the grave and
urned, the smoke rising through the
sunlight while the words of the Chris
tian service were repeated. Each
friend of the departed Jo* Lee threw a
handful of earth upon the coffin and
turned away. Ths body of Joe Lee
had been placed safely In Its lost bird,
his spirit was on Its way to the un
known nnd the followers of th# two
