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.

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. Old World Rites. When half a doten of the unconvert ed Celestials arrived, some with queues close around shaven hends, some with LOW RATES Ufa SOUTHERN RAILWAY closely cropped oily hnlr, but all dress ed In tho garb of twentieth century 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 religions were content In their own be lief at to Its destination. As the crowd departed from th# rapidly filling grave j M3 one thoughtful watcher repeated softly I 1} Marietta... 8:6) pm, the words of that old Persian pessimist * !
