Physicians may attempt to separate
the twins by an operation.

Father Tempted When Wolf Howls
PENALTY HITS FAMILY
Two little children and a pleasant
faced little woman today sit in sor
row In a cottage at. 117 Hampton street,
pining for the father and husband, who
without work and listening to tiie se
ductive voice of the tempter, resorted
t>< the sale of whisky to provide food
for the wife and little ones, and who
has now been smitten by the strong
arm of the law,
R W. Swann, head of the tittle fam
ily. made a frank confession of his
guilt to Recorder Broyl s today. He
said lie had a good position with the
Atlanta Milling Company, but left this
for what he thought was a better place.
This position, he said, "played out” In
a short time arid then he was out of
xvork. He said he had tried hard since
that time to get work, but had failed.
Then came the tempter.
Yields to Lure of "Easy Money.”
An older man, who seemed to have
considerable influence with Swann, ad
vised him to go into partnership with
him oln the sale of whisky, enticing
him with the lure of "easy money.”
Up to that time. Swann had always
worked and made an honest living and
had never been before the courts for
an offense against the laws. The fact
of his previous good character was es-

tablished in court today. He says he
thought of the wolf at the door of
the little home, and then he fell.
"I want to come down and tell the
whole truth.” said Swann to Judge
Broyles. “I am guilty, and I simply
ask leniency because of my wife and
two little children. 1 am thedr sole
dependence, and it was to provide for
them that I sold whisky.”
Detective t'oker, who, with Detective
Hamby, arrested Swann and worked
up the case against him, was touched
by the plight of the man and his story,
and made a plea in his behalf He said
he had known Swann for a number of
years and that he had always botne a
splendid r< putatlon.
Must Do Time—Can Not Pay Fine.
Under the evidence and Swann's con
fession, the court imposed a fine of
1500.75 or 30 days. He explained that
he could make it 5500 and 30 days and
bind Swann over to the state courts
for selling whisky, but that he would
treat it merely as a city offense. It
xvas shown that Swann and his partner,
who has not yet been arrested, had
ordered whisky in large quantities, hav
ing it shipped to Decatur and bringing
it into Atlanta on trolley cars.
Swann is unable to pay the fine and
will have to do time in the stockade.

WRIGHT, KING OF
FLYERS, IS DEAD
Siege of Typhoid Ends Fatally
for Famous Aviator at His
Home in Dayton, Ohio.
DAYTON, OHIO, May 30. —Wilbur
Wright, first aviator of the world, died
here at 3j30 a. m. today. The man
who, with his brother Orville, invented
and perfected the first successfully
heavier than air flying machine sue- |
cumbed to typhoid fever, and after a
battle for life that lasted three weeks.
The end came after one of the most
remarkable struggles against the dis
ease that physicians have ever known
For more than 36 hours Wright’s tem
perature had stood between 104 and
105 degrees, while his respiration was
between 40 and 50. His purse averaged
140. Stimulants were resorted to and
for the last three days had been used
freely. At last midnight Wright began
to sink rapidly. His pulse grew weak
er and he failed to respond to stimu
lants.
Wonderful Vitality Shown.
At Wright’s bedside were his father.
Bishop Milton Wright; his sister, Kath
erine, his brother anil co-worker and
inventor, Orville Wright, and Lorin and
Reuchlin Wright, younger brothers. Dr.
Conklin was in attendance when the
end came.
Wilbur Wright's illness began a little
more than three weeks ago. He grew
rapidly worse and his condition be
came critical within a week after he
had been attacked by the malady.
Orville Wright, brother of the in
ventor, who was in Washington taking
up with government officials some mat
ters in connection with the govern
ment’s use of the Wright machines, was
summoned home. Shortly after he ar
rived cablegrams were sent to foreign
countries which tiie inventor had ex
pected soon to visit, saying that it
would be impossible to make the trip
for some days. Then for the first time
it was known that Wilbur’s condition
was such as to give grave alarm.
Wright rallied after the first sinking
spell and his wonderful vitality made
the physicians hope that Ito might re
cover. He aroused himself sufficiently
to say that he would get well, and then
he grimly battled against death, fight
ing desperately against disease.
Made Game Fight For Life.
A second sinking spell occurred, and
three days ago Dr. Conklin announced
that there was no hope. Wright sank
into a state of coma. He rallied slight
ly, and though his fever was very high,
there seemed a slight chance that he
might recover. The fight he made
caused the physician yesterday Io issue
a hopeful statement.
"I do not know what the outcome wifi
be. he said. "Wright has remarkable
vitality and he is putting up a gallant
light. He may live. 1 can not tell,”
Wright's condition again took a turn
for tiie worse about midnight. Ho sank
Into unconsciousness and during the
last few hours was kept alive only
through stimulants.
Early today it was seen that the end
was not far oft and the entire family
was summoned. All were in tiie room
when the aviator passed away.
The aviator’s condition sank lower
and lower as the morning hours sped
by. Shortly after I o'clock it was
thought lie was dying. His heart ac-
Uon became very low The stimulants
were again used and his heart respond
ed slightly. The final sinking spell be
gan about 3 o clock. He died peace
fully.
Brother Is Overcome.
Orville Wright, the brother who has
shared in Wright’s work and his
achievements, was overcome. Their
sister, Katherine, who helped the broth
ers when they were struggling with
their invention and who shared their
triumphal European trip and their
home-coming after the, success of their
machines had been demonstrated,
though overcome herself, strove to
comfort Orville.
Wright's mother is dead and his sis
ter Katherine has taken the mother’s
plme in the home since that time.
No arrangements have been made for
the funeral.
A complication of kidney troub'e is
supposed to have been Ihe cause for the
first sinking spell after it was believed
the fever had been broken.
