Has Figured In Many Escapades, Yet I* Only a Child. After having, by his own confession, committed the crimes of arson, burglary and larceny and escaped punishment In each case on account of his age, Wade O’Callaghan, a young white boy, was bound over to the chy court by Recorder Broyles Thursday afternoon to ansewer to the charge of stealing a cow. Bond was fixed at S2OO, but was not given. In disposing of this case Judge Broyles remarked that if the boy was pot stop ped In his career of crime he would event ually make the greatest :hie£ Georgia has ever produced. The charge that O’Callag han will have to answer to Is the larceny of a cow from J. P. Gower. Mr. Gower left his cow in a vacant lot to graxe and Wade stole It, led it to a slaughter house and offered to sell It for $lO. He said the cow waj Ihe property of his father and he was in hard luck. In addition to this charge the police have another against him—that of stealing a box of to bacco from the J. J. & J. E- Maddox Grocery Company. He was not tried on this charge. This boy claims to be but nine years old. but Judge Broyles said yesterday that he entered the Boulevard school in 1894 and that the school cannot be attended by children until they are six years eld. This would make Wade thirteen years old, and he looks to be fully that age. The father of the youthful criminal was pres ent in court Thursday and made a plea for his boy. but as the recorder thought him too dangerous a criminal to te at large, he was committed to jail. EMMA GOLDMAN’S CREW. Chicago Anarchl*t* Fighting For Free dom With Habea* Corpus. CHICAGO, Sept. 13—Hearing of the writ of habeas corpus for the release of anarchcists under arrest here began be fore Judge Chettlain in the criminal court at 11:40 a. m. today. Because of threats of lynch ing the prisoners tnaue by angry citixens on the streets this morning Judge Chettlain decided to hear the habeas cor pus case in the criminal court building instead of in the county building. The county building is in the downtown dis trict where bulletins telling of the presi dent's condition are liberally*'posted. The anarchists are locked up in the Jail adjacent to the rear of the criminal court building, the two being connected by * covered way. It is five blocks from the jail to the county building, where Judge Chettlain ordinarily sits. Sheriff Mager stadt moved among the excited crowds during the morning and heard threats of lynching freely made. Fearing that an attack might be made in bringing the prisoners flown town, he went to the judge and requested him to make the change. He told Judge Chettlain that the crowds wer angry and that every bulle tin from the president’s bedside made them more threatening. Judge Chettlain readily consented to the change. "The anger of the crowd is justifiable,” said Chief of Police O’Neill. "I feel with them, but there will be no lynching in i Chicago. It is impossible. The sheriff’s precautions are wise. It has been a long time s,lnce I have seen a Chicago crowd as angry as this one." Judge Chettlain arrived at 11:30 a. m. and a few minutes later the nine prison ers charged with conspiracy to kill the president were led in and given seats be hind a row of bailiffs. Sheriff Magerstadt was present in person. Throughout the room were deputy sher iffs and detectives in plain clothes, the sheriff having determined to take every precaution against trouble. The writ of habeas corpus having been complied with by the production of the nine prisoners in court, counsel then made returns in be half of the sheriff, the chief of police and Justice Prtndlville, who, according to the petition, held the prisoners under restraint Illegally. The prisoners brought into court were: Abraham Isaak. Abraham Isaak, Jr. Clemens Pfuetxner. Hippolyte Havel. Henry Ttavaglio. Michael Ross. Martin Roeeneck. Ross Fox. Emma Goldman was not present, but Justice Pilndlville had promised to follow whatever decision was made by Judge Chettlain. Leopold Saltiel, representing the prison ers. opened the argument asking for the release of his clients bn the grounds that they were being held without a shadow of legal reason. Attorney Saltiel claimed, in an excited voice that all the papers in the case were insufficient anu were issued under false pretense. Judge Chettlain interrupted to say it appeared to him that the ease was still a matter for Justice Prlndiviile to settle. The case, he said, was pending before the magistrate who had agreed to hear it r •t/ ■ ■ DR. PARK. ROOSEVELT’S GEORGIA BLOOD. Theodore Roosevelt is closely bound to Georgia by ties of blood. His mother, Martha Bulloch, was the granddaughter of James Bulloch, who was a doughty soldier of the revolution, serving as a captain of Georgia and Vir ginia troops. The father of James Bulloch was Archi bald Bulloch, the first revolutionary gov ernor of Georgia, and his father was named James Bulloch also, a Scotchman, who settled in Georgia in 1715, and was a member of the Georgia provincial con gress. He was closely related to the he roic Douglasses of Scotland. Thus Theo dore Roosevelt comes of Illustrious stock, Scotch as well as Dutch. He has Hugue not blood, too, by reason of the fact that the wife of Archibald Bulloch was Mary de Vaux, granddaughter of a distinguish ed Huguenot, who fled f/om France after the edict of Nantes was revoked. It will be seen that the lineage of Theo dore Roosevelt is very rich in historic as sociations. His mother was a woman of rare beauty and graces of intellect. One of her brothers was the gallant Captain Bulloch, who resigned from the United States navy to east his fortunes with the Confederacy. It was be who secured that historic cruiser, tho Alab .iua, for the Confederate government and succeeded in getting .her to sea in spite of all the ef forts of the United States minister, con suls and agents in England. Captain Bul loch never returned te this country and died only a few months ago in London re spected and honored by all who knew him. The old Bulloch mansion in Roswell, where Theodore Roosevelt’s father wooed, won and married his mother, is still in -fine preservation and is now the property of Mr. James D. Wing, who is connected with the White Hickory tVagon works at East Point, six miles from Atlanta. Theodore Roosevelt has been married twice. His first wife was Miss Alice Lee, of Boston, who died two years after her marriage, leaving a daughter. In 1886 he was married' again to'Miss Edith Kennlt Carew, of New York. They have six children, four sons and two daughters. Never has the white house held so many children among its occu pants as it will have during the Roose velt administration. ■ Roosevelt’* Great Versatility. Few men have won fame in so many different directions as Theodore Roose velt. He is a scholar, author, soldier and statesman. At Harvard lie was distinguished for hi* excellence both in studies and athletics. There he acquired a great part of the ih- Roosevelt’s Tribute to the Immortal Lee* '** • I - * i ? «• . “The decline of the militant spirit in the northeast during the first half of this century wa* much to be jegrettw Qther cause the undoub ted average Individual inferiority of the northern compared to the southern troop.j at any rate, at the beginning of the war of the Rebellion.

Until 1886 the law of the succession to the presidency in case of the death, re moval or incapacity of the president, provided that the vice president should come into the office. Next to him In the line of succession stood the president pro tempore of the senate, that is the member ot the senate who had been elect ed to preside over the proceedings of that body in the absence, of the vice pres ident. . . After the president pre tempore ot tne senate came the speaker of the house of representatives and beyond him there was no provision for succession. The defect and possible danger Involved In this law were brought forcibly to the mind of the country in 1881 by the death of President Garfield and the conditions then existing. . . L Vice President Chester. A. Arthur Step ped promptly into the president’s office. September 19th. Mr. Saltiel thereupon launched into a lengthy discourse to show that the upper court had jurisdiction. Not a scintilla of evidence, he said, had been produced to show that the prisoners were guilty of "conspiring to murder the president,” as charged in the complaint. John F. Geetlng. as counsel for the pris oners, followed Mr. Saltiel.

As no evi dence has as yet been received from Buf falo Taylor says the present charges con stitute nothing more than a misdemeanor and that the prisoners are consequently entitled to ball.

Remarkable stories are related of his experiences among the rough element in the wild west when he was a ranchman 'and the manner in which he inspired re spect where ‘‘tenderfeet” are held in coa . tempt until they .prove their manhood. Theodore Roosevelt has been a prolific Author of biographical, historical and po litical works. Among his more notable contributions to literature may. be mentioned “Hunting Trips of a Ranchman,” "Ranch' Life and the - Hunting Trail," "The Wilderness Hunter.” These were all written in the first three or four years after the close of his college life. Later he wrote "The Naval War of 1812,” "The Life of Thom as H.

In order to make the succession more stable congress in 1886 enacted the present law regulating it. It is now provided that the vice presi dent shall stand first in the line of suc cession as he did before, but both the pres ident pro tempore of the senate and the speaker of the house of representatives have been eliminated. The members of the cabinet have been placed in the line of presidential succes sion in the order of the creation of their offices, namely: • L Secretary of state. 2. Secretary of the treasury. 8.

NEW BAPTIST SECRETARY. Rev. F. C. McConnel is In the City on Investigating Tour. Rev. F. C. McConnell, who was elected to succeed the late Dr. F. H. Kerfoot as secretary of the Baptist home mission board, arrived in the city Friday after noon from Lynchburg, Va. The newly elected officer was met upon bia arrival by members of the board ana extended a cordial welcome to the city. Dr. McConnell does not come to the city at this time to assume the duties of his office, but to make 'a preliminary survey of the work and to look about and decide upon his residence. He will return to Lynchburg Thursday and will bring his family back in about three weeks. Dr. McConnell expresses his great pleas ure at returning to his former home. He said he ufled to live in Georgia and feels now that he belongs here. For a year he said he lived in Atlanta, that was about 22 years ago, and for a long time lived near the city.

Roosevelt has made many notable pub lic addresses and has appeared frequently upon the lecture platform. He is a very forceful speaker, plain and pointed of spech, and affecting none of the tricks or fancy flights of the professional orator. He is a man of action rather than words. He cares little' for society in the techni cal sense of that word, but has strong social instincts which he loves to indulge among his special friends. Tnese he num bers in various walks of life, from the millionaire to the humble day laborer, from the learned professor to the plain farmer. A man of more democratic nature and manners than Theodore Roosevelt is rare ly seen. In college he took an active part in de bates and soon after his graduation be came prominent in hfs party conventions and among its campaign speakers. 4. Attorney general. 5. Secretary of the navy. 6. Secretary of the interior. The secretary of agriculture is not In cluded, as his office had not been created at the time the act was passed. Before that the agricultural bureau was presided over by a commissioner, who had no seat in the president’s cabinet. The argument used in support of this legislation was that it provided a more secure succession to the presidency by adding more names to it and that it insured also that the policy of the administration would not be revolutionized, as it often would have been had the president pro tempore of the senate or the speaker of the house step ped into the executive office.

KRUGER'S SON NAS SURRENOEREO AN ACCOUNT OF BATTLE WHICH RESEMBLES STORMING OF DAR- GAI HEIGHTS BY GORDONS. 4 LONDON, Sept 13.—A dispatch from Lord Kitchener dated Pretoria, announce* that C. Kruger, a son of the former pres ident of the Transvaal, and Captain Fer reira have surrendered. Lord Kitchener has sent King Edward, as colonel-in-chlef of the Gordon High landers, an account of an incident that strongly recalls the storming of Dargal Heights by that regiment. Lord Kitchen er says that after surrendering. Com mandant DeVilliers informed him that during the Boer attack of July 4, on Wat son Spruit, the Highlanders behaved with the utmost gallantry. "The Last four men, though completely surrounded and without cover, continued to fire until three were killed and the fourth wounded. One of the Boers asking the survivor the reason why they had not surrendered, he replied, ‘Why, man, we are Gordon Highlanders.’ ” BOTH SIDES CLAIM VICTORY. Government and Rebel Force* Seem to Be Pretty Evenly Matched. NEW YORK, Sept. 12.—According to ad vices from Colombia, received by The Tribune, both sides are claiming victo ries. Arturo de Brlgard, Colombian con sul general here, has received a commu nication from General Jaime Cordqva, governor of the department o{ Caucb’v He tells of a government victory at Pueta - Piedra over the rebel forces of General Barriga and also of the defeat of the in surgent leader. General Marina, at La Pledras. In this engagement, General Cor dova says, the revolutionists lost 200 men. General Eduardo Vasques, of the gov ernment army, was also killed in this bat tle. The latter was one of the wealthiest and most influential citizens of Antioquia. According to official advices the rebels suffered another defeat at El Helechal. de partment of Santander, in which one of their chiefs was killed and another taken prisoner. General Cordova also writes that an in vasion from Ecuador is feared. He charges that the president of Ecuador is supplyl - arms and ammunition to the revolu tionists commanded by General Avellno Rosas for this purpose. The governor of Cauca adds: "In a short time we shall have nearly 20,000 men under arms in this department.” The information that came to the local agents of the rebellion, however, gave an entirely deferent aspect to the state of affairs. This news tells of a battle fought at Macqueque, department of Boyaca, which lasted for several days. The government division under General Moya Vasques, governor of Boyaca, to the number of 3,000. attacked the strongly Intrenched force of 1,000 rebels command ed by General Benito Hernandez, with the result that the former were repulsed with a great loss to their ranks. Besides this, the insurgents secured ten pack mules, carrying 20,000 cartridges. The scene of this engagement is an excellent strategic point, and it is said that it will require an army of more than five thou sand to dislodge the liberals from their stronghold. It is not definitely known how many were killed and wounded, but the number is said to have been large. General Rafael Uribe-Uribe, chief of the main army of rebels, is now said to be ih Santander with 6,000 men. His plan is to engage the government force from the front while General Hernandez and an other command under General Polydoro Ardilla. from Ocana, attack from the rear, thus practically surrounding the principal detachment of the government. General Uribe-Uribe has lately been joined by General Pedro Rodriguez, who sailed from here a short time ago on the steamer Maracaibo. No Session of Director*.
