I came back by a drug store and took a big dose of capudine. When 1 got to the hotel I was too sick to get the money order. At 4 o’clock Dr. Dicbman came and gave me some varinol. He left two 5-grain tablets for me to take if I was not relieved. I met Mr. Ap- pelbaum that evening in the room.

I gave him his mail and told him that I had not opened any of it. He said: 'What's the matter, dearie. You are my little private secretary.’ “1 said 1 understood, but there are some letters that looked suspi cious and 1 asked him to read them to me.

HARDMAN PIANO USED EXCLUSIVELY my word of honor I don’t know an other thing until I awakened in an other room the next morning—the housekeeper’s room—and a lady was bathing my face in iced water. I never had such pain in my life. “Somo one asked me if I would not make a statement and I told them that I would not: that I was going to protect Mr. Appelbaum. “I Could Not Have Hurt Him.” “Don’t you know,’’ she continued, turning to the Jury, “I could not have hurt him with a heart in my body like that? 1 asked what the trouble was, and they told me that he was hurt; that he had a little scratch on his* arm. “Then they took me to the loom and let me dress. I went downstairs, for I thought that Mr. Appelbaum was in the office. He wasn’t there, and I start'd for the street. A policeman stopped me and told me not to go out, for they would get my picture. I asked him what they wanted that for, and he said it was just a curious cus tom they had in Atlanta. "Finally the patrol wagon came and I told them not to take me down there, but they told me that it was the only way to have my picture taken. “About those letters, 1 never doubt ed him about those letters, and I do not believe that even under the influ ence of drugs, loving Mr. Appelbaum as much as I did, that 1 could have committed an act of that kind and forget it. ' I am as innocent of doing hirn harm us an angel in heaven." Innocent if Drugged. If the jury believes that Mrs. Ap ia Iba um killed her husband while un der the Influence of hypnotic drug and not In her normal state of mind, then she must be declared innocent of the charge of murder. This will be the one exception to a formal charge to be rendered by Judge Roan when the trial of Mrs. Appelbaum goes to the jury this afternoon, according to a Statement by the court to-day. , The case i^ expected to go to the jury by 4 o’clock this afternoon.

And when he realized himself at the • dge of the precipice he shot himself ■father than go over. 1 was undecided as to coming to Atlanta to participate in this case,” lie concluded, "but my sister pleaded with me to come, saying I might be of some assistance to a good woman Attorney Branch followed Jones, speaking for twenty minute®, leaving the principal argument to Attorney Moore. Attorney Thomas B. Brown, who has assisted Solicitor Dorsey, opened the argument at 10:45 o’clock. State Makes Rebuttal. After the defense concluded its tes timony. the State introduced a num ber of witnesses in rebuttal. Eugene Hazard, a negro bellboy at the Dakota Hotel, told of accompanying Mr. and Mrs. Appelbaum to their room one night. He said that Apeplbaum was laugh ing and Mrs. Appelbaum said: “You may think it is funny now’, but just wait until we get in the room." The boy could not place the date, though, beyond the fact that it was a few nights before the day of the shooting. T. B. Hopkins, foreman of the grand jury which indicted Mrs. Ap peibaum. testified as to the evidence of (J. Cohen before the grand jury. He said Cohen testified that he had heard a muffled sound after the first two shots, but that he had covered his head after the second, and w r as not sure whether the third sound was that of a shot or not. Witness Under Attack. Rev. J. E. Daniels, pastor of the Lakewood Heights Church, who also was a member of the grand jury, cor roborated Mr. Hopkins’ testimony. Joe B. Jacobs, a pawnbroker,* was introduced as a character witness and said Cohen’s character was bad John Black, city detective, was placed on the stand and said he would not believe Cohen under oath. Newport Lanford, chief of City de tectives. told of his conversation with Mrs Appelbaum the morning of the shooting. “She talked freely of the case and said she did not know whether she had done the shooting or not. but that if she had. it was Cod’s work and not hers," was his testi mony. $50,000 Fire in Mill District of Augusta Flames, Starting in Big Lumber Plant, Threaten Wide Area—Heat Overcomes Three Men.

Representative Moore, Pennsyl vania Republican, Answers the Questions He Framed. HAPPY IN CELL Mrs. Jack Mashburn Rejoices as Husband No. 2 Is Freed by Atlanta Police. WASHINGTON, April 25— Con gressman J. Hampton Moore, a Penn sylvania Republican, found a new way to deliver a tariff speech in the House to-day. Mr. Moore conducted u tariff “catechism" by having the House clerk read questions thq mem ber had prepared and which Moore answered from the floor. The catechism began when the clerk asked: “When was the tar iff act passed?” Questions and an swers then took tariff legislation step by step up to the Underwood bill, which was "roasted" by Mr. Moore. Moore called his speech a "tariff primer,” and the spectacle was with out precedent in the House. Con gressman Moore explained he took this unusual method of speechmaking following the “Stop, Look, Listen.’’ example of President Wilson, who, a few days ago, addressed the House on the tariff issue- Why the Payne Bill Passed. “Why was the Payne bill passed?” Moore was asked. “Recaues the Democrats were con tinuously misrepresenting the tariff question,” said “Pupil". Moore. “Did the Payne bill revise the tariff downward ?” “It did. and equalized many duties.’* “If the people enjoyed such won derful progress under the Payne law, why did they complain?" “They listened to ambitious politi cians, agitators without consciences, Journalistic organs with axes to grind, magazines seeking pap, essayists who found it more profitable to write fic tion than to work, theoretical college professors, non-producers and a few sincere reformers usually misinformed and frequently misled,” answered Moore. The clerk then asked Moore what was meant by the Wilson-Underwood bill. Takes Slap at President. ’The bill introduced by Chairman Underwood, exponent in the House of the theories of President Wilson,” was Moore’s reply. Congressman Moore also got In a shot at the “distressing consequences” of Democratic power in the nineties which were followed by a return to Republicanism and the enactment of the Dingley law. The industries of the country, he answered, thrived both under the Dingley and Payne laws, but many of them would be wrecked under the Underwood bill. Mr. Moore declared that President Wilson favored the breaking up of industrial establishments if they can not operate on equal terms w’ith thos abroad. “In what respect has the gentleman from Alabama Indorsed the views of President WilPon?" he was asked, Attacks Income Tax, Too. In shaping his tariff bill so as fo discourage American enterprise, and industry and encourage foreign com petition to the end that cheaper goods shall be supplied, though their'wages be lowered and their employment taken away. “The Underwood bill threatens the destruction of the sugar industry, me naces the cotton and w’ool Industries and, w’hile admittedly destroying $100,000,000 w’orth of revenue collected at the customs houses from importers of foreign commodities, attempts to make up that deficiency by an income tax levied directly upon some of the people and only some of the people whose offense is* that they have been more industrious and thrifty.” Underwood Not to Allow “Gag Rule." WASHINGTON, April 25.—Demo cratlc Leader Underwood to-day was subjected to much pressure to hasten the passage of the tariff revision bill in the House. He refused, though, to allow any gag rule to be brought in until a reasonable amount of debate has been allowed. Representative. Hardwick, of Geor gia, is trying to adopt a special rule whereby all debate under the five- minute rule, or the greater part of it, would be eliminated and the bill brought to the stage of final passage next Tuesday. Minority Leader Mann said there was no disposition on the part of the Republicans to 'filibuster. He insisted that the bill should have a fair amount of discussion. Secretly, Republicans would wel come the passing of a gag rule, as they claim it would give them cam paign matter. Dahlonega Bandits Get 20-Year Terms Four Who Attempted to Rob Bank Convicted in Lumpkin Superior Court. DAHLONEGA. QA„ April 25.—Set ting; aside the jury's request that four bandits who attempted to rob the Lumpkin County Bnnk at Dahlonega on February 14 be punished for mis demeanor, judge Jones, of the Lump kin Superior Court, to-day sentenced William Flynn. Charles .Miller, W. M. Thornton and J. M. Harris to twenty years each in the State penitentiary. The four men were the ones who mu tinied in the Fulton County Tower a month ago at the suggestion Of being Bertilloned. Entering a plea of not guilty, but making no effort to explain Ithelr whereabouts on the night of the rob bery or to establish their identity, the men were convicted on circumstantial evidence alone. An appeal for a new trial will be made. Despite the fact that she was or dered held by Justice Ridley in bond of $700 for bigamy, Mrs. Jack Mash- bum. the 17-year-old LaG range girl who openly scorned C. W. Smith, a I.aGrange farmer, Husband No. 1, when t they met in court, to-day de clared that she is supremely happy. Smilingly coyly, she said: "You know. I'm happy for two great reasons. The first is that Jack, my darling Jack, was turned loose and didn’t have to go to jail. The second reason is that I know that true love will triumph. “My first marriage with that coun tryman, Smith, doesn't count at all, she continued, with a merry laugh. ‘The trouble with him is that he was trying to interfere with true love, and he got bumped. He knows I don’t love him and never loved him, and why doesn't he let me alone in iny joy'.'' Swears Loyalty to Mashburn. She insisted she would stick to Mashburn, no matter what the out come of her case. They may send me to the peni tentiary. but I would claim my love when 1 got out.” she said. If these judges and officers only knew just how my heart is bulging out with love for my dear Jack they d have human feeling and sympathy enough to turn me loose. But then they've turned Jack loose, anyway, and this makes me happy. Oh, I wouldn't have him to suffer for anything. They can do whatever they may with me, but I don't want them to harm Jack. "You know this Is the way I ^eel about it—love is the whole thing with a girl, and I think she should have full swing when it comes to love. Every girl should marry the man she loves, no matter what obstacles are placed in her path. She should let no one persuade her to do otherwise. X listened to persuasion and allowed myself to be forced into a loveless marriage. You see the consequences. It has brought down on me all of this trouble. , ., Her Love Philosophy. "If a girl wishes to be happy in matrimony she should choose for her self—follow the dictates of her own heart and conscience. There may be certain traits in a man's character that will cause a certain girl to fairly adore him. while they might not at tract the attention of other persons. Hence, when a girl feels real, true love, she should cherish it and put it above the likes and dislikes and whirnjLof others. “1?^.'listening to others Instead of to uid promptings of my own heart, you see, I’m stamped as a bigamist But l don't feel that I’m a bigamist, because I don’t consider that I was ever married to Charlie Smith.” Mrs. Mashburn was put under $700 bond hy Justice Ridley, when her counsel, Colonel E. A. Jones, of La- Grange, waived preliminary hearing. The case of Mashburn was dismissed, as the prosecution had no evidence to show that he had any knowledge that the girl had another husband at the time he married her. Sheriff O. H. Florence and Deputy Sheriff Gus Reed, who came here to take Mrs. Mashburn back to La- Grange in the event she was not held by the Atlanta court, have returned to LaGrange.
