Atlanta, Feb. 16.—A perfectly in
nocent scandal is agitating Atlanta
in connection with the approaching
Kirmees charity entertainment ii
hlch a great many of the city’s
young society buds are going to take
part.
The local newspapers, to stimu
Kile interest in the entertainment,
announced in their columns that so-
and-eo and so-and-so, naming certain
ch.arming debutantes, would dance
in short dresses.
Somebody asked how short, and
the response was “About eight
Inches! ’* \
Eight-Inch skirts being a little
shorter than even the average hal
lo* dancer wears, “Interest” waa un
doubtedly stimulated. In feet, In
terest bordered on excitement.
Further Investigation developed,
however, that the authority who bad
said the skirts would be “abjiil
eight inches," meant not that they
would he only eight inches long, but
that they would bt "about eight
Inches from 'the ground.” This in
formation, which would doubtless be
a sad disappointment to some peo
ple, has not yet been made public In
Atlanta, and the public bere ]a per
fectly willing yet t6. pay its rtoney
to see just how short those skirts
will be.
YOUNG CARSON TRIES
SUICIDE, BUT FAILEfi
Doctors Were on the Spot
With Their Stomach Pumps
and Brought Him to.
Atlanta, Feb. 18.—Charlie Car-
eon, a young white mam 23 years of
age, lost his nenr# .completely when
he was sent to the city stockade a
short time ago to eerre thirty days
for fighting. He bad never been ar
rested before, be aald, and had the
idea that being sent to the chain-
gang would disgrace himself and
Ms family eternally and forever.
The stockade doctor had ]
scribed strychnine tablets as a ton
ic for the young prisoner, who was
not very strong, and Carson, Instead
of taking the tablets as they were
given him, hid them, one by one,
until after two weeks he had nesu-
mulated what he thought would be
enough for hie purpose. Then he
swallowed the whole lot at once. But
the Grady Hospital interne, who are
constitutionally opposed to letting
anybody commit a peaceful suicide
anywhere within twenty miles of
Atlanta, were Johnnie-on-the-spot
usual with their stomach pump,
and spoiled the young prisoner’s
Job.
Carson has recovered sufficiently
to say "D—n meddling doctors.'

TRIEB TO INTRODUCE A
NEW STYLE IN ATLANTA
Young Man Wanted Revolver
Strapped to his Belt ana
was Pulled for it.
Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 17.—Do the
dead come back, and if so are they
actuated by the eam 0 Jealousies and
paasslons of love and hate that
moved them In corporal life? These
questions, which have long; Interest
ed psychologists ar e beginning to in
terest Georgians In a purely practi
cal way.
Within the past six months there
have occurred In this state two well
authenticated cases In which the
ghost of a former husband or sweet
heart has come (between the woman
and her second mate and separated
them.
The first was the case of Mr.
and Mra. Bolivar Dent, at Knoxville,
Ga., who were driven apart, they
say, by the ghost of Bolivar Dent’s
dead 'brother, who had been engaged
to marry the young woman at the
time he died.
The second cas© comes more re
cently from Macon, In which George
W. Mann, a well known Confederate
Veteran, got a divorce from his wife
after testifying that »h# left him
because she waa haunted by the
ghost of her first husband.
The two stories are to a great ex
tent parallel and are corroborated,
ao far as it If possible to obtain
oorroboratlon of such things, by
thoroughly reliable people.
