3000 IN GUMMING
AWAIT HANGINGS
Two Negroes Will Have Paid
Death Penalty by Noon
Hour Today.
CUMMING. GA.. Oct. 25.—Before the
noon hour today Oscar Daniels and
Ernest Knox will nave been hanged
simultaneously at the first legal execu
tion in Forsyth county in more than
half a century.
.'dore than 3,00 b grewsomely curious
■persons —men and women, boys an 1
girls—came to town for the hangings.
The negroes, three weeks ago yester
day. were convicted in the Forsyth su
perior eon - , of assaulting and causing
the death of a young white woman on
September 8, less than six weeks ago.
They were given the death penalty and
no effort was made to resist the sen
tence. their counsel having announced
in advance that no appeals would, be
taken.
CumTuing is under u»artia! law today,
for the third time within six weeks —
first, about the time of the crime; lat°r,
at the trial, and now for the executions.
The presence of soldiers in this little
mountain town has become l ather com
monplace.
Gallows Fence Burned.
Efforts of county officials to have the
hangings conducted privately, as re
quired bj law, were futile. Because of
the smallness of the jail, which woultl
not permit the erection of a gallows
witiiin the structure, a wooden scaffold
was constructed in a field a halt mile
from the court house. This was sut -
rounded by a fence fifteen feet high,
forming an inclosure about 30 feet
square.
About midnight a mob went to the
site of the seuffold, tore down the high
fence and made a monster bonfln of
the lumber and timbers. This morning
only a hett" of charred embers was left
of what had been the fence. The scaf
fold was not molested.
Ordinary 11. V. Jones early this morn
ing ordered the fence rebuilt. when
li< undertook to secure lumber with
which to rebuild It. not a dealer in town
could be found who would sell the ma
terial. Consequently it became neces
sary to conduct the double hanging in
tile open, in full view of the assembled
multitude.
Soldiers Arrive.
The two companies of militia that ac
companied the two prisoners from At
lanta arrived here at 2 o’clock this
morning, with the condemned negroes
in custody. They were taken imme
diately to the courthouse, where they
were confined until removed to the gal
lows. A picket line was thrown about
the Icoui tliou.-e, the fence around the
square being the dead line A utiong
guard v as maintained inside the build
ing, with Major I. T.'t'atfon personally
In command. Only mllltarv and court
officials, physicians and a minlste:
were passed throilgL th> lim-s.
Rev. F. P.' Wills, tiastor of the slum
ming Baptist church, had been desig
nated as spiritual advisor to the con
demned men. He spent some time coun
selling them and urging them to m ike
their Until peti.ee with God. The ne
groes ate a hearty breakfast at the
iouitliou.se. apparently unmindful oj
ttaeir impending fate.

Institutions Foisted by Leaders of Federation
While Students Lend Color
to Affair.
Cuthbert, in south Georgia, will be
the host to the Georgia Federation of
Women’s Clubs next year, that city’s
invitation having been accepted by the
convention at its closing meeting last
night.
The cause of women in polities was
given a boost when a resolution by Mrs.
John K. Ottley was adopted, providing
for a department of political science in
the federated program, in order that
women seriously may study politics.
Mrs. Ottley is well known in Atlanta
as an advanced thinker, an unusually
able orator and a student of municipal
problems,
McFarland Tells City’s Needs.
Dr. Horace McFarland, of Harris

was a discussion of Atlanta’s civic
needs, as he conceived them after a
tour of the streets that afternoon.
The clubwomen were given <in auto

RESTORE GRAY HAIR
TO NATURAL COLOR
By Common Garden Sage, a
Simple Remedy for Dandruff,
Falling, Faded. Gray Hair.
The old idea of using Sage for dark
ening tlie hail* is again coming in I
vogue. <>ur grandmothers had dark, j
glossy hair at seventy-five, while our I
mothers are gray before they are fifty.
Our grandmothers kept their hair soft ’
and glossy with a "Sage Tea,” which
also restored the natural color.
One objection to using such a prep- I
aratlon was the trouble of making it. i
This objection has - been overcome b.v
the Wyeth Chenii'til Company of New
York, who ha* placed on the market a
superior preparation of Sage, combined
with Sulphur and other valuable reme
dies for dandruff, itchffig scalp, and
thin, weak, falling hair.
The beauts of the hair depends more
on its rich, even shading than anything i
else. Don't hale dry, harsh faded hair,
when a simple, harmless remedy will
bring back the color in a few days: and
don’t be tormented with dandruff, Itch
ing s alp and loose, falling hairs. !

POLITICS TO PUT
MORE CLUBS
UNOERBfIN
Intense Factionalism in Coun
cil Engendered by Refusal to
Grant Locker Permits.
indications today are that politics
aml the reform crusade will result in
the final dosing of a number of locker
dubs in addition to the four already
banned by the mayor and council.
The police committee of council to
day began work on a sweeping inves
tigation of all the clubs.
By the adoption of a resolution by
Councilman Chambers yesterday, th«
committee will reconsider applications
of the four clubs ordered closed—the
Bees, the Knights of the Mystic Ark.
the Southern and the Georgia Athletic.
Another resolution was referred to th<»
committee by council, having been In
troduced by Councilmen Chambers, Ma.
son and Baker, providing for an abso
lutely dry Sunday, abolishing the bell
system in clubs which would be cx>n
venient in times of raids and giving
the recorder the right to revoke any
locker club license in case of a viola
tion of a city ordinance.
Drink System Imperiled.
While the many clubs recognized az*
purely social organizations will be in
vestigated, they will be little affected
by Acting Mayor Candler’s veto of their
permits, except, perhaps, to be made
to change their systems of serving
drinks.
But Councilmen Chambers, Mason
and others will demand of the police
committee that It furnish the evidence
to council upon which 1» recommends
the closing of clubs. The committee
made no explanation when it subitted
its first report.
It is reported in political circles to
day that the whole fight on the report
of the police committee had politics as
a motive. It Is said that the Bees and
the Georgia Athletic clubs, ordered
closed, supported the Chambers faction
in the mayoralty primary.
On the other hand, the Metropolitan
club, recommended to be outlawed by
Police Chief Beavers, was given a per
mit. Aiderman J. B. Everett is the sec
retary of ’this club, and, It is said, the
Influence of his club was thrown to
James G. Woodward in the mayoralty
fight.
