DIES FOR LOVE OF
NAN SHE LEFT
FORMER
Woman Known as Mrs. Henry
Confides Secret of Life Be
fore Taking Acid.
Disagreement with the man for love oi
whom she had deserted home and hus
band was declared today to be the rea
son why the woman known as Mrs. G
A. Henry killed herself by drinking car
bolic acid at Mrs. Cynthia 'Waters
boarding house at 82 Aubitrn avenue
Mrs. Waters said today that just be
fore Mrs. Henry retired to her room t<
take the poison the woman confided t<
her that she had never been married
to Dr. Henry, though she had lived
with him for sixteen years. To the
coroner's jury Mrs. Waters added that
“Mrs. Henry" had explained that she
had run away’with Henry, leaving back
in Omaha. Neb., a. husband from whom
she had not obtained a divorce.
Husband's Name Secret.
She would not divulge the name o1
her husband, but she had confided tc
the landlady that she had too much
conscience to wrong him further by
marrying Henry, even though she had
run away to live with him. When she
had quarreled with Henry in Atlanta
she saw the end of her sordid romance,
and when he had parted from her she
determined that she would not live on
in disgrace and loneliness.
But what her name was before she
eloped with the alleged dentist she did
not tell even Mrs. Waters, so that a
veil of mystery has been thrown over
the suicide by this partial confession
on the eve of the suicide, which will
probably never be lifted unless the
unknown husband discloses his name
and whereabouts when he reads of his
wife’s tragic death.
Knew of Woman's Intention.
Dr. Henry, was not present at the
Inquest, but he was found by a Geor
gian reporter. He declined to discuss
the affair further than to say that he
had known of the woman’s intention to
end her life.
No amount of questioning could elicit
any Information from him. He even
declined to reveal his own identity, re
fusing to explain his business or give
his address.
He is reported to be a dentist, and to
have a room in the Beavers building in
East Hunter street. He is known about
the Beavers and Eagles clubs, being a
frequenter of both.
Coroner Donehoo sent instructions to
Dr. Henry to appear before the coro
ner’s Jury in the undertaking parlors
of Harry G. Poole, but the doctor failed
to put In an appearance.

two per cent of the pupils are brothers
of former students. It is here the boys
are prepared for the I'niversity of
Georgia, from whence have gone forth
into the world so many famous men.
Professor Beaver bought out the
school from former President Griffin.
The school has given Stone Mountain
great prestige. He declares he has the

Miss Frances Smith. Atlanta bathinp girl, snapped at Pied
mont park where she was one of the many Sunday bathers.

The pond at Piedmont park took to
its bosom many hundreds for the first
■ Sunday bathing of the season. It was
. a large sportive but in no wise a dis
t orderly crowd. It was a. happy crowd
and a strenuous crowd —at least so far
as appearances go.
I The fact that the day was Sunday
thinned out the morning crowd of
i women and girls, but the attendance of
■’ the men and boys in the afternoon
' more than counter-balanced any'dis
. crepancy.
i Every available inch of space was be
ing used. The Inner pond, fenced in,
’ was filled with children spouting like
f whales. Though their scope wasn't
, quite as large as that of their elders
they made up for it in noise.
Farther out the older persons dis
' ported themselves. They swam in every
' fashion known to man; they dived un
i der water and came up several yards
1 away; they boarded the rafts which
1 floated about the pond and from there
: fell into the lake again; they played
' water baseball, threshing about like
fish just returned to water, in the ex
citement of the game, and some oX
' | them swam in good old straightaway
fa shion
,| In addition to the pwimmers. quite a
1 ) number of young girls in White, ac-
i companied by young men without their
' | coats, floated in boats on the lake, A
' ' lively chatter was kept up between the
j occupants of these boats and the swim-
I mers.
The park will stay open now until the
weather begins to turn cool, a long way

He said today he went out to see what
objections could be made to Sunday
swimming. His opinion is that it Is a
very innocent and wholesome recrea
tion.
Mayor Winn said he talked with t»ev.

posed to Sunday swimming, but that
they withdrew all objections when they
saw how it was conducted and how
much it was enjoyed yesterday after
noon.

PASTOR PREDICTS
MORAL CLEAN-UP
That vice in Atlanta ' - b-conie a
“vested interest." actually protected
and fostered by certain wealthy prop
erty owners who get an annual rental
of more than $61,000 from the traffic
which brings an income of $600,000 a
' year, is the specific charge of Rev. Dr.
John E. White.
The pastor of the Second Baptist
church declares that the vice commis-
I sion now at work in this city will dis
close a condition of "protected immor
ality" that will amaze the citizens and
points accusing fingers at several per
sons who now enjoy high reputations
in the community. He adds that when
the cover has been removed so that all
may know the frightful prevalence of
the' traffic and the part played in it
by its "respected sponsors" who own
the houses, the entire city will arise
and stand behind the anti-vice board
in its effort to eliminate the disgrace.
Dr. White commends the work of the
vice commission no less heartily be
cause the mayor refused to appoint hint
a member of it after he had been rec
ommended by the Men and Religion
| Forward Movcmentr
30 Citizens Own the Houses.
■ "There are 44 houses devoted to im
i moral purposes in this city.” he told his
congregation last night. "In them are
265 unfortunate women, and the police
know of this. These houses constitute
an organized, vested interest in which
the commercial spirit is the controlling
factor. Without the moral backing of
the property owners who are essential
partners in the business there would be
no bold front of this evil in Atlanta.
Thirty of these citizens collect $61,000
in rentals each year from these un
fortunate women. This is their share
of the selling price of the sisters of
men. The landlords of these houses
who know what they are renting their
property for are saying 'Neither do I
condemn thee; go and sin some more
and pay my rent.’
"This vice Is not segregated in At
lanta, and it never will be. It is scat
tered throughout six sections of the
city. It is this established and unmo
lested Central evil which Is the tap- ■
root from which the widespread Im- I
morality draws its main sanction and i
support. It is this protected vice which
commands enough capital In Atlanta
|to obtain an income amounting to I
[ $600,000 a year.
"The vice commission Is a ennser- ;
1 vatlve commission, but it will give the ;
i public the facts. Publicity is the only !
thing needed to give it coherency anii
.effect. Public sentiment in its private;
'expression Is strong in the movement
to grapple with the vice traffic in our
city. The stand-patter on the question
of immoral traffic has had his day.
"What Toronto has done; what Min
neapolis, Los Angeles. Des Moines, Fall
River and Lincoln are doing. Atlanta
can do. Between the fb Id hook of the
tax office and the grand jury room is a ■
short and plain path. For the unfor- !
tunates themselves we have only kind- |
ness and Christian sympathy. For the '
promoters and supporters of the traffic i
which requires fresh innocence every
six years to pay dividends on an in
vestment in real estate, there is no I
. remedy save the law nothing less than
the law, patiently and continuously ap- I
plied. I
