NEGRO GOES TO
GALLOWS JOKING
Black Slayer Enjoys Greatly
Auto Ride From Tower to
Douglasville Train.
I Laughing and joking with the jailers
and his fellow prisoners about his exe
cution. ami apparently enjoying an au
tomobile ride from the Tower to the
Terminal station as though he had been
on a picnic excursion, Leonard Lewis, a
negro slayer, tills morning was taken
from the Tower to Douglasville, where
he was hanged at noon.
"Good-bye, fellows, I guess I won’t
see you again," called out the doomed
man to the prisoners In his cage as.
handcuffed, he was led away by Sheriff
W. A. Baggett, of Douglas county.
To Jailer Golden he remarked:
"This is something new for me, all
right, but I don't mind it as much as I
thought I would. I'd just as soon be
hung, anyway. It's all over in a few
minutes, and I don’t guess there's much
pain about It."
As ho was being sped to the Terminal
in the auto with Sheriff Baggett and
Deputy Sheriff Suttles, of Fulton coun
ty, the slayer laughed and chatted, and
never once displayed the slightest sign
of nervousness.
No Regret For Crime.
"That negro has either got a nerve
of Iron, or hasn’t any nerves at all,”
commented Deputy Suttles.
Lewis was hanged for the murder of
another negro, whom lie shot to death
follow ing a crap game After losing In
the game, Lewis went away, obtained a
pistoi, and, later meeting the winner,
askei'l him to return the spoils. When
the latter refused, Lewis shot him.
Asked about the killing just before
lie left tlie Tower, he showed no regret
at all, but showed an almost inconceiv
able spirit of bravado and revenge.
"If that nigger should jump up here
before me now I’d shoot him again,” he
said with a grin. "When I fired the
first shot, he fell, but he kept kicking,
and I Just simply kept shooting until
he got perfectly still."

Atlanta Financiers Have Pasture Pool Fever
GOLF BUG GETS BANKERS
Atlanta bankers have the golf fevet
this season. It is worse, far worse,
than the notorius bicycle bug which
stung them fifteen years ago, and the
epidemic has nearly as many victims in
the financial world as the well known
motor mania. The links at East Lake
look like a coupon clippers convention
these Snappy afternoons, and the dnly
men left indoors after 2 o'clock are the
third assistant bookkeepers and the
Janitors. Everybody else is pounding
the pill about the pasture.
Ern«st Woodruff, head of the Trust
Company of Georgia, and a number of
other things, sprang a great surprise
in financial circles by joining the golf
ing department of the Atlanta Athletic
club at East Lake. The announcement
is surprising, because for many years
Mr. Woodruff has lent himself assidu
ously to business pursuits, to the utter
exclusion of athletics, politics and simi
lar frivolous pastimes. Time and time
again friends of the well known banker
and capitalist have suggested that he
go in for outdoor life and some light
form of sport. Mr. Woodruff is no
pigmy. On the contrary, he is more
nearly In the class of the giant—
very tall, but thick set, muscular and
determined as you please. But he has
persistently refused, and has gone on
evolving business schemes, putting
things under the brand of the dollar
mark.
Woodruff Blames Friends.
Imagine the consternation of his busi
ness associates, therefore, when he
came in tfye other afternoon with a
blazing Scotch plaid golf cap and some
other fancy trimmings known best to
followers of the great national business
man’s game! A ripple of excitement
went through the whole banking pro
fession. and Mr. Woodruff is.busy to
day explaining that it wasn’t his fault
by a great deal.
"You see,” declared Mr. Woodruff to
an intimate, “Frank Hawkins and Jim
Nunnally got me into this, and the fas
cination Is keeping me in. Why, it’s
really a great game, and maybe I’ve
missed something all these Vears. I
haven’t yet given up business, but I’m
getting along fine and In a few more
days will be able to show the boys a
few fancy strokes. My percentage in
golf sticks and other accessories is 1.000
so far, and my average in puts is grow
ing so fast that the older players are
beginning to marvel. Yes, slree, golf is
a great game.”
That is Mr. Woodruff's alibi. The
story of a person who saw him play Is
not exactly in accord with it, since this
individual swore by the Great Book
that Mr. Woodruff required 700 strokes
to complete the course, and that in one
game, and at one stage of it he was so
far behind that he hasn't finished yet.
Ever’body’s Doin’ Something.
In justification of his action tn re-,
ceiving the sacred ritts of the golf
club. Mr. Woodruff dwells on the recent
initiation of his faithful coadjutors,
Hawkins and Nunnally, the former of
whom went in a year ago, more or less,
and the latter much more recently. Not
only that, but he points out that of
the younger contingent, John B. Wheat,

FINDINGS IN WINN
CASE AT VET HOME
UP TO GOV. BROWN
The findings in the Winn case at' the
Confederate Soldiers Home were hand
ed to the governor today by Captain
"Tip" Harrison, a member of the board.
The governor did not consider the
findings immediately, but will take,
them up shortly.
While nothing was given out official
ly as to the verdict, it' is understood
that the board convicted Major Winn
of drunkeness, but not of anything else
charged against him.
The governor has not said what his
course of action will be, in the event
the findings of the board are approved,
as he is not altogether clear in his
mind as to his authority and jurisdic
tion in the matter.
