THE ATLANTA GEOKGIAM AND NEWS.WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1912.
Nurse Declares She Is Cured of
Stage Fever by Atlanta
Experience.
Cured of a severe attack of “foot
light fever” by her recent Atlanta ex
perience, Miss Genevieve Goodwin, the
pretty 17-year-old nurse who turned
reformer anil caused a Federal inves
tigation of alleged white slavery, says :
she hopes her revelations may serve as
a danger signal to young girls.
“Cling tightly to your mother's apron i
strings; stay closely at home and shun :
the worldly glitter and glamor, is a ;
message that I would send, through The
Georgian to all young girls, especially
those who are stage-struck,” said Miss
Goodwin.
And then she added:
“A girl amid home surroundings and
safeguards, at work for $lO per week, i
is far better off than the girl traveling :
about the country with strange com- i
panions at a salary of SIOO per week.’’
Dream of Stage -Fame Gone.
The girl declares that this, her first '
effort to become a stage favorite, is 1
her last. The dream of becoming a
vivacious and coquettish soubrette, she
said, once was more alluring to her than
the steadj- daily grind of working as-a ;
nurse in a big city hospital, amid the
natural gloom of wholesale human ills,
but when she was awakened rudely, she
saw things in a different light. One ,
rehearsal satisfied her ambition, she ,
said and she now is ready to return to 1
the simple life.
To a Georgian reporter today Miss 1
Goodwin made the first definite disclo
sures concerning her Identity. She had
refrained from talking of herself, she
said, because of her distaste for noto- 1
rlety. J
Lives in Little Kentucky Tovyn.
Miss Goodwin's home is in Pineville. <
Ky., where she is well known anil
ixjpular. Her parents are Mr. and Mrs. '
W. A. Goodwin. Her father is a well- j
to-do contractor and builder. Miss 1
Goodwin recently left her home for Cin- 1
clnnatl to become a professional nurse,
and was in the training school ‘of the (
city hospital there at the lime she was I
engaged by a theatrical -agency to take 1
the role of soubrette in the Metropoli- ’
tan Musical Comedy Company, in At- ,
lanta.
The girl confidently declared her fa- •
tiler will come to her rescue, and said 1
she expected him in Atlanta within a 1
few days
Miss Goodwin will not return to Cin-
cinnati, but expects to remain in At
lanta, at least until the white slave
case against Mrs. Emma Pauline Hud
son, of the show company, is disposed
of in the United States court. Al
though she has made no definite plans,
the girl hopes to obtain a position here
as telephone operator, or else in one of
tlie down-town department stores.
Through With Stage Forever.
She is being cared for now in the
home of City Detective W. A. Cliew
ning. in Berne street, Chewning, with
Detective Norris, investigated her story
and started the slavery probe.
“I'm done forever wltli stage life —
this brief, but exciting experience is
enough for me. I'm disgusted and am
sorry I ever had any desire to become
an actress,” said Miss Goodwin. “And
if other stage-struck girls will heed
my advice, they’ll take a second
thought, choke their false ambition, and
live the simple, every-day, quiet life.
They’ll soon find they are better fitted
for this than for the role of footlight
stars. If they wish to escape subtle
and hidden perils, they'll certainly stay
at home with their mothers as com
panions.
“As I was on my own resources in
Cincinnati, the alluring promises of
this theatrical company dazzled me. and
I determined to make a try at it,
thinking, of course, that some day I'd
be a shining star, receiving the ap
plause of thousands. I thought it was
a clean proposition, else 1 never would
have ventured. Had I known of the
peril that awaited me, 1 would have fled
from it as I would from a venomous
reptile. But I didn’t know. When I
did awake, however, I lost no time in
making my escape. Although, of
course, I regret this notoriety that has
come to me, still 1 hope that, through
my plight. I may be able to save some
other wavering girl.”
Woman Held For Trial.
Miss Goodwin Is at the home of De
tective chewning, with an expense ac
count of $1 a day granted her by the
court until she can appear as a witness
against Emma Hudson in the Federal
court next March.
Emma Hudson was held under SI,OOO
to await the action of the Federal
grand jury, after Genevieve Goodwin
had told the commissioner iter story of
her trip from Cincinnati to join a mu
sical comedy company, her meeting
with men and women of the troupe;
of drinking and smoking, and her sud
den awakening from a dream of the
fotlights. The statement upon which
tile Hudson woman was held was tha*
she had attempted to detain the Good
win girl tn the house to prevent her
telling her story to the police.

Carnegie Corporation Subsid
j iary Legatee of Iron Mas
ter's Fortune.
- NEW YORK, Nov. 27.—A1l but $25,000,-
000 of Andrew Carnegie’s fortune, which
’ will be disposed of under his will, will he
i left to the Carnegie corporation of New
i York, which has been made his residuary
I legatee, and which will curry “on his edu
cational and charitable work, according
to a statement just issued by Mr. Car
negie.
in making his announcement, telling
how he had gone about putting his “gos
pel of wealth’ into practice, Mr. Carnegie
said:
“1 resolved to fulfill the requirements of
i the ‘gospel of wealth’ by transferring
i funds and have done so except that I
I have fount’, it desirable to retain for a
.while personal distribution of my I nited
I States military telegraph corps pensions
I and Pennsylvania railroad pensions to
Pittsburg division men and their widows,
! because my old boys would dislike the
■ change, and so no doubt would others
I upon my pension list.
“To meet these payments and others
I under my will $25,000,000 of bonds upon
which the New York state tax has been
paid have been reserved. But. the New
i York corporation has been my residuary
legatee and all surplus left after meet
l ing the provisions of my will goes to it.
I “I am happy in getting all this off my
mind. It 1s a gruesome business, but I
find that this earth is rapidly becoming
more and more heavenly, so many good
men and women I know labor for others.
Surely Luther, Franklin and their follow
ers were right who held that ‘service to
man is the highest worship of God.’ ’’
. In explaining his pension plan, Mr. Car
negie cited the cases of three former
presidents as affording justification for
the project, the announcement of which,
he said, was “making the desired im
pression.’’ His trustees and himself were
all hoping, he said, that congress would
meet the situation “by proper action.’’
“Nation Should Provide Pension.”
“Not one of us but will rejoice should
this be the result. ’’ he said. “We were
very qpreful to provide that only in case
congress failed to provide pensions to ex
presidents the corporation would stand
ready to do so. It is properly the prov
ince of the nation to act. We all feel
| that.”
I Mr. Carnegie referred to a recently pub
’ llshed letter which dealt with the circum
, stances of Grover Cleveland after his re
j tlremenl from the presidency.
“I know about Mr. Cleveland," said Mr.
I Carnegie, in his statement.
| "He told me of an offer he had to serve
-as a director an important institution
• which would give him a salary. Finding
that other directors had no saalrles, he
declined the offer, saying his name was
not for sale."
Mr. Carnegie’s other references were to
Presidents Lincoln and Grant, the last
named having been pressed for funds even
while yet in the white house, the iron
master said, while lie quoted from a let-
• ter written by Mrs. Lincoln to show that
i President Lincoln’s family was similarly
I embarrassed.

VFe Have With Us Again, Mr. Andy IVzmpi |
"ACTIN'” IS A HARD LlFffl
By DUDLEY GLASS.
Andy Wimp camo back to Atlanta
today, with a brand new overcoat
which swept the ground, a blue hat
evidently constructed from the pelt of
a well groomed French poodle and the
same old smile Andy always wears. The
gang around the theatrical clubs gave
him the glad hand and as many high
balls as he cared to carry—and Andy
never was lazy. He says he has some
thing new on tap which will bring in
so many iron men that he’ll be pension
ing ex-baseball managers next season,
which is an improvement on Carnegie’s
plan, as everybody will admit.
”1 gotta vode-veel act that’s simply a
scream." said Andy, explaining his
prospects as security for a small loan.
"I haven't wrote the patter yet and I’ve
got to figure out the plot, but I can get
some newspaper guy to bull that stuff
some night after the show. But I got
the main Idea. I'm going to star Jack
Johnson in a three-act skit which tars
and feathers him the first round, runs
him down with bloodhounds in the sec
ond and lynches him as the curtain
falls. And I’m goin' to call it ’The
Smoke Nuisance.’ Ain't that some idea!
I get Hugh Cardoza will book it forty
weeks on Keith time and we'll play the
beaches all summer—that is, if the
smoke lasts that long.”
“How's things been on the road,
Andy, and what’s your newest graft?”
asked Billy Sharpe, who used to be a
side-partner of Mr. Wimp in various
amusement enterprises under roof or
canvas. “What are you so wrapped
up in that overcoat for, anyway? It's
a swell blanket, all right, but it’s warm
in here and nobody will steal it if you
keep your eyes open.”
Behoid Wimp's “Front,”
Mr. Wimp arose, gently stripped off
the ornate outer garment and revealed
a thin scarlet jacket built of red can-'
ton flannel and adorned with brass but
tons. Below this was a pair of flesh
colored tights which many darnings
had failed to render proof against the
naked eye. Beneath the scarlet jacket
were two layers of newspapers in lieu
of a shirt, while a copy
of The Billboard served as a chest pro
tector and the foundation to which a
three-inch collar was carefully pinned.
But the collar was clean and the broken
patent leather pumps well polished. No
body ever saw Andy Wimp when lie
didn’t have a good front.
“That's the answer.” returned Mr.
Wimp. “Behold the papers. The show
business is on the toboggan and I’ve hit
the bottom of the chute. I rode in on
! the rattler this mornin’, with a nigger
. fireman throwin' enough coal at me be-
• tween Marietta and the local yards to
i keep a poor family warm all through a
hard winter. If I hadn’t played the tar
’ get for a tllrow-three-balls-at-the-nlg
, ger's-head outtit all one summer at a
. Dutch beer garden, 1 wouldn't be here
■ to tell the tale. But I learnt something
t about dodging that season.
And His Name Was Zeno.
"I was spielin' for a carnival outfit up
to yesterday, Bittin’ the tank towns
South. After I’d made the openin’s I
• ducked inside and doubled as Zeno the
Lion Tamer. We hit a string of rainy
1 days with mud knee deep on the lot and
! the ghost couldn’t have walked with a
1 crutch. Pop Wilson was the main boss.
’ I struck him for the price of a couple of
I beers and he said there was nothin'
doin’.
“ ‘Looky-here, Pop,' says I, puttin’ it
1 up to him strong, just like that, ‘when's
. this outfit goin' to pay oft?’
“Pop conies back at me straight off.
“ ‘I ain’t got the coin to pay you all
off at once’t,' he says. ‘But I’m startin’
in today. I'm goin’ to pay everybody
' in tlie show, in full. But I’m goin’ to
pay' off alphabetically, and you’re down
on the pay roll as Zeno, so you’ll bo
’ some time gettin’ yours.’
“’Zeno the devil,’ says I. ‘Next time
I join out with a shoestring troupe
like yours I'm goin’ on the list as
Ajax.’
“And Here I Am—Broke.”
“Well, that night 1 gets in a crap
game and wakes up next mornln’ with
my real clothes laded out and nothin’
left but this bunch of lion tamer’s rig
gin’. I'm so sore I slides into Pop's
bunk, lifts this coat he paid sixty bucks
for in Cincinnati and his parade hat
and ducks for the water tank. And
! here I am, broke but in the midst of
friends. Who's goin’ to buy?”
When Atlanta saw Mr. Wimp last, in
the fall of 1910, he was two weeks
*
ahead of a melodrama company,
in turn was only two nights ahead <»■
the sheriff. Andy attached the
for back salary, but when the oth®
claimants had got theirs Mr.
found himself the possessor of orfl
painted garden, rather frayed;
exterior of Mandy Ann’s mountain
in. and one property turkey, built c®
papier-mache and not appetizing. aM
Mr. Wimp joined out with a medicin®
show bound for Florida, where for thn®
weeks he appeared on the tailboard 1®
canvas clothes, feathers and war pain®
and recited the strange but true stol®
of old Dr. Gumm’s discovery of a mirac®

the remedy for his private flask on®
night and when he was nursed back tfl

"After that I blew East with a ten-S

Wimp. “It was a little out of my line®
