8. THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA„ FRIDAY, JULY 11, 1913. KILLS SEIFJ HOTEL Throat Was Cut and He Had Been Dead for Nearly an Hour When the Deed Was Discovered ' Dr. George S. Tigner, the well-known .•Lianta dentist, took his own life early vVednesday morning in the Imperial ho tel, where he made his home. About 4 o’clock Dr. Tigner got up and went to the bath in the east end of the hotel. iHs wife was awakened, but presently went back to sleep. In about an hour she waked again, and was frightened by finding him stil gone. She got up and went to the bath and found the door locked. Stooping down and looking underneath the door, she was able to discern his body lying on the floor. She gave the alarm to the hotel offi cials and they broke open the doe* and found Dr. Tigner dead, with his throat cut. The body was taken to Patterson's undertaking establishment, and an in quest was held there at 10 o’clock Wednesday morning. A rundown, nervous condition is thought to have been the cause of Dr. Tigner’s act. For some time his family and friends have known that he was not up to his normal standard of health, as he has frequently spoken of his hervousness and said he was going to take a long rest as soon as he could get his affairs in shape. No one sus pected, however, that liis strength had ebbed so low as to render him danger ously despondent. 1,648 Vessels in Year (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON.

Southern Army Aviator Falls To His Death Lieutenant Loren H, Call, of Missouri, Flies Into “Warm Air Current'’ in Texas (By Associated Press.) HOUSTON, Tex., July 10.—Lieutenant Loren H. Call, of the United States army aviation corps, was killed instantly about 6 o'clock this morning by the collapse and fall of his aeroplane just north of Texas City. He had started his flight from the aviation field in the Second army division mobilization camp. Lieutenant Call was regarded as one of the best army aviators. Yesterday he made a twenty-five-mile flight in twenty-five minutes. He was engaged in a practice flight today when he met death. Lieutenant Call was born in Missouri. June 30, 1888, and appointed a second lieutenant in the coast artillery from Kansas, September 25, 1909. He was promoted to first lieutenant July 1, 1911. Warm Air Hole Causes Machine to Tumble TEXAS CITY. July 10.—The dangerous thing known to aviators as “warm air current” is held responsible for the in stant death today of Lieutenant Loren H. Call, of the aviation corps, of the second division of the United States army, stationed here. About two hours after sunrise Lieu tenant Call, making practice landings, had risen from the aviation field, which borders the gulf of Mexico, had turned his biplane northward, away from the water, crossing the brown tented army city and was flying over the level tree less stretches near the artillery camp, which lies farthest Inland. His machine was at an altitude of about 500 feet, plainly visible to several soldiers who say that it seemed to be running smoothly, and that without warning, it suddenly turned .its nose downward and plunged almost straight to the earth. The impact broke nearly every bone in the young aviator’s body, making kindling of his machine and wedging its fragments so tightly about his crum pled body that it was difficult to take out his inanimate form. The “warm air” theory was advanced by other officers at the aviation camp, who know the location over which Lieu tenant Call was flying. The accident occurred shortly after 7 o’clock. While a board will be named to in vestigate, the view is expressed that nothing remains about the wreckage to show the real cause of the mishap. PAINTER POLICIES NDT PAID Bf PENN MUTRAL Insurance Herald, of Atlanta, Says Only One Old Policy Was Paid (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) JACKSONVILLE, Fla.. July 10.—Some days ago it was announced that the Penn Mutual Life Insurance company had paid its $100,000 policies on the life of the late E. O. Painter. This week the Insurance Herald, of Atlanta, has this to say: “A usually authoritative source of in formation last week caused us to carry an item to the effect that the Penn Mu tual had paid the entire claim of about $100,000 of the estate of the late E. O. Painter, of Jacksonville, who is gener ally believed to have committed suicide a few weeks ago. It appears at this time that this was an error and that the Penr* Mutual merely paid a few thousand of insurance taken out more than a year ago and returned about $1,700 that had been paid to it as pre miums on the new policies.” When asked about the article the Painter lawyers refused to talk saying that they would continue to remain si lent on all matters connected with the insurance.

M’GQMBS UNDER KNIFE FOR APPENDICITIS Operation ferformed in Paris Successful-French Appoint ment Still Open (By Associated Press.) PARIS, July 10.—The condition today of William F. McCombs, chairman of the Democratic national committee, is declared most satisfactory by the sur geon in attendance. His progress to ward recovery from the operation for appendicitis he underwent here today was said to be normal, but in view of his delicate constitution, it was stated he would require several days of com plete rest. Mr, McCombs Was Suffering When He Went to Paris (By Associated Press.) NEW YORK, July 10.—William F. McCombs, chairman of the Democratic national committee, regarded as the probable new ambassador to France, was operated upon yesterday for ap pendicitis at a private hospital in Paris, according to advices received here. The operation is reported to have been successful and no complications are ex pected. Mr. McCombs went to Paris lately, knowing that he was suffering from appendicitis, but hopeful that a rest abroad would eliminate the necessity for an operation. It is recalled that dur ing the national campaign last sum mer Mr. McCombs was so ill that he had to give up the work temporarily and retire to the mountains for his health. He was unable to return to his work before the election, but since then has not enjoyed good health. Mr. McCombs declined the ambassa dorship to France, when it was first offered to him on the ground that he could not afford to give up his law practice. President Wilson then express ed regret that the provision made by this country for its ambassadors was in adequate. Since Mr. McCombs’ refusal President Wilson has nominated no one else for the post, and it is said that the administration hopes to overcome Mr. McCombs’ objection and to prevail on him to accept the appointment.

OFFICERS PISE TEXAS DIVISION CAMP General Carter Says San itary Methods of Big Camp Are Perfect TEXAS CITY, Tex., July 10.— What army officers say is the best organized, best trained and healthiest military camp in the world stretches for two miles along the Gulf of Mexico shore here. Four months ago the site of this camp was virtually a swamp. This transformation is one of several big achievements of the American soldiers sent here last February for the mobiliza tion of the Second division of the United States army, the first of the new divisions brought together in »this country. Major General William H. Car ter, commanding the Second divi sion, United States army, said to day: “The division here and at Gal veston comprises one-third of the infantry strength of the United States army and, with artillery, cavalry and signal corps, makes nearly 12,000 men. Bringing the division together has taught the officers and men the intimate needs of a big organization. When the commands comprising the va rious divisions go back to their various posts and are ordered to reassemble for any service what ever, the commanding general can issue a single order which will cover the entire equipment of ev ery man, whether for northern or southern or over seas service. SANITARY METOHDS PER FECT. “The Second division is now in excellent shape. The soldiers are sturdy^ types of American man hood, equal to any in the world. The whole division, with bag gage. could be ready to go abbard trains or transports before the cars could be sidetracked or the transports ready to cast off. “Probably the one most impor tant accomplishment for the American people has been the demonstration of sanitary stand ards. It has certified the methods tested at San Antonio in 1911, when 14,000 men assembled as a maneuver division. We have now been here four months, and not one case of typhoid has developed, when we came we were told that this was a swamp. “We could train twice as many men here without increase of of ficers. We believe the United States does not need a large army such as maintained by European countries, but a few regularly or ganized and equipped divisions, such as this, distributed over the country at points where they could be readily available for over sea service and as models for our volunteer citizen soldiery, upon which this country must rely, would more than repay their cost.” Brigadier General C. H. Ed wards, commanding the Sixth brigade, has worked out the night attack formation by which, with the use of rope to help keep the commands in touch, over 2,000 men one pitch-dark night marched out of camp without awakening any one, went two miles, led by only two guides, and approached within thirty yards of an en trenchment before the officers in it, who were waiting for the at tack. knew of the enemy’s ap proach. The center of the attack ing line struck within ten yards of the center of the entrench ment. OFFICERS COMPETE FOR PLAGE IN AERO CORPS Undismayed by Lieut, Call’s Death, “Shave-Tails” Fight for His Post TEXAS CITY. Tex., July 10.-—Conflict ing testimony about the cause and man ner of Lieutenant Loren H. Call’s fall to death in his biplane here yesterday has developed among the 200 persons who witnessed it.

Some of the spectators assert a series of explosions preceded the aeroplane’s fall. Others dispute eyewitness stories that Call hung beneath his machine by the handrail, claiming they saw the bi plane turn over and over. Lieutenant Call’s body will be ship ped to his father, Judge L. W. Call, In Washington and interment, will be in- the national cemetery at. Arlington. It is said that despite the long list of army aviation fatalities many young offlqprs have already filed applications for detail to the vacancy in the aero squadron caused by Call’s death. Live Stock is Treated Better Than Men, Says American Med. Leader NASHVILLE, Tenn., July 10.—Making the dedicational address at the corner stone laying for the Galloway Memorial hosital yesterday afternoon Dr. J. A. Witherspon, president of the American Medical association, termed the action of the federal government in appropriat ing $50,000,000 for looking after the country’s live stock and a mere pittance for looking after the men and women of the country a disgrace to civilization. “Thank God,’ the speaker said, “that I happen to be at the head of an As sociation of 93,000 physcians -who are making a great fight to prevent disease in this country. And, ladies and gentle men, let me say to you we are not go ing to stop till the government realizes that the health of our people is at least as important as that of the live stock.” The new hospital is a Southern Methodist institution to cost $575,000.

PITTSBURG QUIET AFTER TWO BIG BANKS SUSPEND Run on Savings Bank, Caused by Failures, Being Met Effectively (By Associated Press.) PITTSBURG, Pa., July 10.—When the banking day opened here there was lit tle to indicate that there had been a period of financial anxiety over the fail ure of two banks yesterday and the ap pointing of receivers for a large bank ing house and an extensive industrial enterprise. No unusual scenes were observed about other banks of the city with the exception of the Pittsburg Bank for Savings, another bank controlled by J. S. and W. S. Kuhn, who controlled the majority of stock in the two banks which were closed yesterday. The run on the savings institution started by yesterday’s failures was re sumed this morning, but all depositors were paid $50 at once and notices of thirty, sixty gmd ninety days for larger amounts were required. With the asurance of several millions in cash and quick asets on hand, the run on this bank doubtless will not prove serious. In fact, bankers of Kuhn connections assert that the sav ings bank will weather the situation and make all payments as demanded, with the result that at the expiration of the time for notice of withdrawals public confidence will be restored. About the First-Second National bank this morning large groups of foreigners were gathered, copying from the doors of the foreign banking department the notice of the closing by the government posted in sixteen different languages. A meeting of the Clearing House as sociation is called for later In the day.

The following officers were elected to take charge of the bank. W. J. Jones, president; L. M. Plumer, vice president; A. N. Voegtley, secretary and treasurer. MORE PERSONAL EFFORT IN SELECTING TEACHERS (By Associated Press.) p SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, July 10.— The need of considering the personal el ement ih selecting leaders in school work was brought out in an address at the general session of the National Educa tion association convention here today by William H. Campbell, of Chicago. “A system that bases selection of teachers on the bare ability to answer set questions is vicious,” said Mr. Camp bell, “and it is time to question the wis dom of classifying our children by herda” Lee F. Hanmer, of the Russell Sage foundation, gave facts about school house evening centers as a paying com munity investment. He pointed out that students of corrective agencies claim that 80 per cent of all misdemeanors oc cur between 6 p. m. and 11 p. m., and showed how the school house evening center is bein^ made a strong counter influence.
