LABOR DAY IS MOST
FITTINGLY OBSERVED
Six Thousand Union Men Pa
rade In Atlanta.
VERY BRILLIANT OCCASION
Thronging Crowds Witness the Grea
Street Pageant—Day Has Been More
Generally Celebrated in the South
Than Kvey Bef'oro.
Atlanta, Sept. 2.—Beginning with
a glittering pageant in the morning and
ending with a grand ball, at night, At
lanta celebrated Labor day in a more
appropriate manner than ever before in
the history of organized labor in the
south.
The preparation of months past
reached a splendid climax, when to th
stirring notes of martial music from
eight bands, 6,000 union men in gala at
tire marched through the principal bus
iness. streets of the city to honor the
first labor holiday in the twentieth cen
tury.
The state house officers, the stat;
courts, the cky offices and busines
houses throughout the city were closed
during the day. Employes in the facto
ries and workshops ceased their labors
that they might participate in the cele
bration, while thousands of visitors
from other cities and towns thronged
the streets to witness the parade.
Excursions were run cm ali the rail
roads entering Atlanta, and large dele
gations from Augusta, Rome, Marietta,
Dalton, Lit-honia, Stone Mountain and
other places swelled the great crowds iu
the city.
The parade eclipsed anything of the
kind ever seen in the south. Every
union in the city was represented. A
large number of floats typifying ail the
principal business enterprises of Atlanta
proved a feature of the pageant.
Many handsome prizes were awarded
to the unions making the most credit
able showings.
The day was also fittingly observed
at Birmingham, Savannah, Columbus
and other southern cities; in fact,- no
more general or appropriate observance
of the day has ever before been kuown
in the south.

Estimated That 25,000 Trade Union
ists Were In Gig Parade.
Chicago, Sept. 2.—Organized work
men in Chicago and vicinity celebrated
Labor day with numerous picnics and r
huge parade today. The demonstra
tions were blessed with clear skies ana
pleasant temperatures.
The parade was about 3 miles
length and it is estimated that 25,000
trades unionists and musicians were in
line. Buildings were not decorated, but
banks, the board of trade, the Stock Ex
change and business houses generally
were closed to allow full observance of
the day.
The South Chicago Steel workers,
who refused to obey Shaffer’s strike or
der, were not invited to participate in
the demonstrations. They enjoyed
themselves at a picnic arranged by their
employers.
A feature of the parade, although not
observable to spectators who lined the
sidewalks, were the union label attached
to ever garment, cap and shoe worn by
the marchera A critical committee had
seen to it that the parade should repre
sent dyed-in-the-wool unionism and
even the horses were not allowed to
march until it was shown that their
shoes had been put on by union smiths.
Among the speakers at the picnics were
Senators Mason and Cnilom of Illinois,
Mayor Harrison ana Samuel Alschuler,
former Democratic candidate for gov
ernor of Illinois.

KIDNAPED YOUNG Gif L,
Russo 1 York of tn-r-.io:i County 8eu-
terced to IVui- ei:tia: y.
Calhoun, Ga., Sept. 4 —The care of
Russell York, charged with kidnaping,
came up in the superior cccrt here yes
terday and attracted wide attention.
The conrtnonse was crowded by an im
mense throng, bent o:i herring a.l the
evidence in this unusual cr.se
The prisoner was found guilty and
sentenced to four years in rho peniten
tiary.
York is a yonug man of aDcut 25
years of age, and has a wife in this
county, irota whom lie has been sepa
rate.! about one year. For some time
he had been working for Joe Campbell,-
who runs a saw mill near town. Camp
bell btis a young daughter, about 15
years oui, to whom York had been pay
ing some attention, contrary to tne wish
of the lather.
About three months ago York met
Miss Campbell one night near her fa
ther’s home and together they walked
to Ariairsviile, a distance of 10 miles,
aun boarded the early morning train for
Currersvilie. From Carter.-vUle they
went to Emerson and one into the coun

York lived.
Officers were soon on their trail and
when they arrived at the country home

near the house. Ho was placed under
arrest, bat jnsc as he was told to get
iuto the buggy by the officers he made a
break for liberty and succeeded in gain
ing the woods and escaping.

BY HER BROTHER’S HAND.
With Pat-ior Hills Hoy Wilkes Acci
dentally Kills Sister.
Atlanta, Sept. 3.—With a parlor
rifle, that he held upon his shoulder,
Roy Wilkes, aged 11, shot and killed his
sister, Loraine, aged 15, at their moth
er’s home, 68 Hood street, late yester
day afternoon.
The killing was accidental, the boy
not knowing the rifle was loaded.
The circumstances of the tragedy
made it peculiarly pathetic. The girl
whose life went out at a brother’s hand
had but a moment before gone to him
on an errand of sisterly kindness. He
had playfully pointed the rifle at her
and she had “held up her hands” in
playful surrender. The rifle was low
ered, and sister and brother proceeded
to sapper. She paused to close the door
and was walking behind the boy when
he pressed his fingers against the trig
ger.
There was an explosion not louder
than that of a scrikiug match, for the
fatal bullet was nothing more than
what is known as a B. B. cap; but,
small as it was, it blotted out the life
of a fair and sweet young girl, the very
idol of her widowed mother.
No. 68 Hood street is the home of
Mrs. Emma Wilkes, the widow of the
late Benjamin W. Wilkes, who died two
years ago at LaGrange, this state. She
was rhe mother of five children. Lo-
raiue, the girl who was killed, was the
second child ami the second daughter.
Roy, whoso hand caused the tragedy in
his home, is the oldest boy and the
third child.

LLEGAL DIVORCE ALLEGED.
Sensational Claim Made by Opposing
Counsel In DeLoach Case.
Augusta, Ga., Sept. 4.—In the mo
tion for a new trial in the case of Mrs.
Susan DeLoach versus the Bell Tele
phone and Telegraph company, before
Judge W. F. Eve of the city court, a
sensational turn was given by Judge
Callaway, representing the telephone
company, alleging that DeLoach had
not been legally divorced from his first
wife; that his second wife was, there
fore, not lawfully married to him, and
had no came of action aaainst the com
pany because of his death.
Id seems that Mrs. DeLoach No. 1 se
cured a divorce from her husband in
Utah. Mr. DeLoach failing to appear,
and acknowledging service by letter
only. The contention is interesting
from a legal standpoint, and has no par
allel in the history of the local conns.
DeLoach was kiiien over a year ago
by an electric shock while at the top of
a pole at work for the Bell company. At
the June term of the court a jury
brought iu a verdict in favor of the
plaintiff for $10,000, the full amount
asked for iu the petition.
