While the eyes of several deputy
marshals and other court officers were
upon him In the United States court
Monday afternoon. Harvey Lynch, of
Douglas county, badly wanted for two
years' by the revenue officers, walked
boldly out of the court room after con
fessing under oath to malting "moon
shine" whisky, and he Is atlll going.
Five minutes after he had disap
peared from the Federal building. Sher
iff C. w. McGoulrk, of Douglas county,
appeared In the court room, seeking
Lynch with a warrant to take him back
home.
How the negro managed-to escape
from the court room, with the officer*
all looking on. Is a mystery the district
attorney's office Is trying to solve.
Lynch was a w itness In the trial of
J. A. Dorris, a white man whom the
government has been after for some
time, and In giving his testimony he
swore he and not Dorris operated the
Illicit still In question. At that time
he was wanted by the district attor
ney's office for other operations, and
Assistant District Attorney Henley
smiled ns he heard the evidence. He
thought It a cinch to convict the negro
after that, and as orders had been Is
sued for hie arrest some time ago, he
thought the negro would be detained
after he left the stand.
But the negro wasn't. He came down
Ofr the stand and calmly walked out of
the court room as other witnesses had
done nnd went Into the corridor. He
didn't remain there, however, as did
the other witnesses. He didn't even
wait to get Ills pay due him from the
marshal. He made all haste to get out
of tho building nnd away.
Now he Is being searched for.

PLANKEOJY ARMY
Salvation Army To Estab
lish Shop For Sale of
Waste ancl Junk.
Plan* will be made this week by of
ficers of the Hatvatimr Army for the
opening In Atlanta of an Industrial
Home, an Institution along the lines of
those already established In many cities
over the world.
Major John M. Berrlman. of the staff
headquarters In Atlanta, has Just re
ceived word from the New York head
quarters of the army that Captain
Lever, of the social work branch of the
organization, would arrive in Atlanta
this week and would Immediately begin
plans to open a home In Atlanta.
This new feature of the^rmy's work
In Atlanta will be a boon to the poor.
If might be called a Junk shop, for In
It will be stored waste material of va
rious kinds. Not a cent of money will
be asked of the people of Atlanta, hnt
Instead they will be asked to co-operate
with the onny and contribute all waste
material, such n» books, newspapers,
magazines, clothing and furniture.
Waste paper and magazines will be
sold for Junk, clothes mended, and re
paired and sold to the poor at low
f irlcea, and furniture renovated end put
n condition for poor people to use at a
nominal price.
In other words, the object of th*
home l* to'collect waste materiel, util
ize waste labor and get In waste capi
tal. Wagons will be sent around to
collect this material and unemployed
inen will he given employment by the
army to work In this home.
Clothes and furniture are sold to the
poor at small price* In order not to pau
perize them, a theory admitted by all
sociologists to be a proper one. Many
a cloak, a wrap or a dress that other
wise would be useless Is taken, re
paired and sold to a poor person at n
sum which would not buy even the
cheapest sort of garment. It la the
snme way with furniture. Captain Le.
ver will arrive this week and will Im
mediately plan to open the Institution.
