GUNMEN TO DIE
WEEK OF JAN. 6
Twelve Men to Conduct Them
to Death House to Guard
Against Gangs.
NEW YORK. Nov. 26 With the
court room guarded by deputy sheriffs,
policemen and detectives, all heavily
armed, to prevent any outbreak or at
tempt at rescue, Harry Horowitz, alias
"Gyp the Blood:” Louis Rosenberg,
alias “Lefty Louie;” Frank Muller,
alias “Whitey Lewis,” and Frank Ciro
flci, alias "Dago Frank.” were today
sentenced to die in the electric chair
in the week beginning January 6, for
the murder of Herman Rosenthal.
Just as the gunmen were being ar
raigned for sentence, “Humpty” Jack
son, one of the most notorious gunmen
in New York, and three of his aids
were found by Police Lieutenant Dom
inick Reilly a few’ feet from tile court
room. They were searched, but as no
weapons Were discovered upon them,
they were turned loose, with the warn
ing that they would be arrested if they
returned to the court house.
Heavy Guard For Transfer.
This was the first time in half a
century that four men have stood at
the bar at the same time to hear their
death sentence.
Sentence was imposed upon the young
gunmen in the criminal branch of the
supreme court by Justice Goff, who
also sentenced ex-Poliee Lieutenant
Charles Becker to death for ordering
Rosenthal's asassination.
Twelve deputy’ sheriffs, the pick of
Sheriff Julius Harburger’s staff, each
armed with two revolvers, were select
ed to guard the condemned men to the
death house at Sing Sing. These ex
treme precautions were taken as a re
sult of the numerous warnings and
threatening letters received by the sher
iff and to prevent any attempt at res
cue.
Some of the letters received by Har
burger said that an attempt would be
made to rescue the prisoners from their
guards in the streets of this city. A
detail of twenty’ policemen, under Cap
tain Tirney, of the Elizabeth street
station, guarded all the entrances and
exits of the court room, and detectives
passed through the mobs in the corri
dors and on the outside to keep the
gangsters under surveillance. Sheriff
Harburger repeatedly promised “this
won’t be another hillbilly affair.”

Governor Brown sent out last night
souvenir copies of his Thanksgiving
proclamation to all the governots
E>
throughout the
Union.
It is customary
among state ex
ecutives to for
ward certified
copies of these of
ficial documents
to one another, it
seems, and the
governor’s mail
has been all but
swamped wll It
them of late.
Most of the cop
ies are prepared
in elaborate style
—some of them,
indeed, being
beautiful speci
mens of the en-
graver’s art.
For the most part. Thanksgiving
proclamations seem to run to the sim
ple and direct, with little display of
rhetoric and ostentation. Some of
them, however, run riot in language
and. considering the high cost of white
paper, would seem to be unnecessarily
expensive.
Governor oodruu Wilson, of New
Jersey, sent out a proclamation re
markable for its conciseness.
Byway of preamble it says merely:
Another year of peace and pros
perity has passed by. The life of
the state and of the nation has
been undisturbed by war or pesti
lence or disaster of any kind; we
have been free to ch’oose our own
ways and have gone through the
varied action of a great political
campaign without violence or pas
sion. The hope of our people has
risen with the increase of their life,
and God has been very gracious to
us in all His dealings.
That is all, except the "Therefore. I.
Woodrow Wilson,” and so forth.
Governor Baldwin, of Connecticut
recites many reasons why he should be
thankful, among them that everything
Is prosperous and blds fair to continue
that way, notwithstanding that fact
' that the nation, by a minority vote,
has decreed a party change in admin
istration at Washington.”
Governor Foss, of Massachusetts, is
sued his proclamation "by and with the
advice and consent of the executive
council,” and the governor of Rhode
Island signs himself officially, “Gov
ernor of Rhode Island and the Provi
dence Plantations!”
The governor of Nebraska thanks the
good Lord that a Democratic president
has been named “by a majority of the
nation’s voters” —which isn't true, of
course!
B. G. Lastlnger, of Valdosta, will be a
candidate for the position of United
States marshal for the - Southern dis
trict of Georgia, the positioi, now’ held
by .Marshal George White, of Macon,
and.his appointment will be vigorously
urged before President Wilson when he
goes Into office next March.
Mr. Lastinger is one of the original
Wilson men in Georgia, and did effec
tive work for the president-elect. He
is excellently qualified for the place
and is being indorsed by leading Dem
ocrats In every section.
Charles S. Barrett, president of the
National Farmers union. started Mon
day on a swift swing around the circle
that will carry hitn ’as far West as Ore

It will require some lively hustling

hand at the business and knows how to
make time traveling.
The national president lias served as
head of the union for seven years now,
and so acceptably that no mention of
oiiposition to his re-election ever is
heard from any quarter.
The Cartersville News, published in
Judge Fite’s home town, says he may
be a.n applicant for the attorney gener
alship of Poi to Rico under President
Wilson, and adds that he will have
strong backing if lie does become a
candidate.
The News specifically names "Geor
gia’s two senators and Congressman
Lee” as sure to be for the judge.
Commenting upon the matter, The
News adds:
The judge was asked about this*'
talk and said he had heard many
pleasant words from his friends
along this line and didn't know
what might happen.
Judge Fite has been presiding magis
trate of the Cherokee circuit for sixteen
years.
Among those who have been men
tioned in connection with the collector
ship of the port of Savannah, when the
anticipated change is made with the in
coming administration, are M. M. Hop
kins and J. S. Neidlinger. The latter
has been connected with the custom
house since the days of Cleveland. He
is being backed in his ambitions by a
strong coterie of friends.
Robert Al. Hitch is being spoken of in
connection with the office of United
States district attorney for the South
ern district of Georgia, and Charles
Russell for assistant.
There likely will be many appli
cants for the district attorney's place.
The friends of Colonel Robert L. Ber
ner, of Macon, already are at work In
his behalf.
J. Ben Wilson will be an applicant
for the position of United States mar
shal.
“Take it from me,” said a well known
Floyd county man, discussing things in
the lobby of the Kimball today, “that
the next postmaster of Rome will be
John M, Vandiver, the former postmas
ter under Cleveland—and the best post
master Rome ever had.
“Vandiver is the choice of four-fifths
of the people of Rome, in spite of the
fact that some most excellent gentle
men will oppose him for the office.
Vandiver has been a Democratic war
horse in Floyd and the Seventh con
gressional district a long time —he was
fighting for the Democracy when the
negro was a power in polities in Geor
gia, and Rome people remember that.
He has demonstrated his business abil
ity and executive capacity in the post
office and in the tax collector’s office.
He will be Rome’s next postmaster—
mark tjie prediction!"
Governor Brown's mind wasn’t alto
gether on affairs of state today.
The fact of the natter is, the govern
or is intensely interested in the experi
ment he has been making on his Cher
okee county farm in the matter of dy
namiting land for cultivation.
Today they are “blowing up” ten
acres on the governor’s farm, and he
wishes he wore there watching the pro
ceedings, rather than In the capitol
deep in the affairs of state.
"I am going to put nine acres in corn
next year—l experimented exclusively
with corn on my one acre this year—
and I am going to try one acre in cot
ton,” said the governor today.
“I believe the cotton yield per acre
can be greatly increased in Georgia by
cultivating the staple on dynamited
ground.”

view of giving that city a Catholic
girls' school to occupy relatively the

BEAUTIFUL MIR

A Simple Remedy Beautifies
the Hair, Cures Dandruff,
Stops Falling Hair.
What a pity It is to see so many
people with thin, wispy hair, faded or
streaked with gray, and realize that
most of these people might have soft,
glossy, abundant hair of beautiful color
and luster If they would but use the
proper treatment. There is no neces
sity for gray hair under slxty-five years
of age, and there is no excuse for any
ohe, young or old, having thin, strag
gling hair, either full of dandruff or
heavy and rank smelling with ex
cessive oil.
You can bring back the natural color
of your hair in a few days and forever
rid yourself of any dandruff and loose
hairs, and make your hair grow strong
and beautiful by using Wyeth’s Sage
and Sulphur Hair Remedy. For gener
ations common garden Sage has been
used for restoring and preserving the
color of the hair; and Sulphur Is recog
nized by Scalp Specialists as being
excellent for treatment of hair and
scalp troubles.
If you are troubled with dandruff
or itching scalp, or If your hair Is
losing its color or coming out, get a
fifty-cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur from your druggist, and notice
the improvement In the appearance of
your hair after a few days’ treatment.
