All of them gentle, kind and safe for a child to drive While the tendency of the police straight through has seemed to be to doubt that Mary Phagan, the mur dered girl, really wrote the smicl notes found beside her body purport ing to give a clew to her murderer, the girl's stepfather. W. .1. Coleman, thinks H possible that she may have written one of the scrawls. That one is the note written on the little yellow factory slip so faintly traced it is almost Impossible to re id It. It is the one that says: mama that negro hired down here did tills I went to get water and he pushed me down this hole a long tall negro black that has It woke, long lean tall negro I write while play with me.

Only time can tell, if anything. Doubts Other Note's Authorship. The other note whose authority Mr Coleman doubts in the one scrawled on a notepad. It reads as it was at ftrst translated. He said he wood love me laid down like the night witch did it but that long tall black negro did it by his self. This note, however, brings up an argument advanced by several people who have studied it carefully. They have found that in some way one word, “play,” was omitted in the first translation, and they think that in stead of ‘ night witch” the words wer^ Make Your Letters Help Bring Shrine Hie first contestants entered in the simencan-Kjeorgian Pony Outfit Contest made it clear that there is to be no lack of interest. “We intend.to win.” was the slogan that accompanied nomination blanks received all day yesterday.

Translated in that way, the argu ment would go to bear out the ex pressed belief of the girl’s stepfather that the negro committed the crime. Ollie Phagan, the 18-year-old sis ter of Mary, said that, while she did not know, of course, she did not be lieve that Mary wrote either of the notes. She knew her handwriting well, and the rough letters did not look like hers, although they might possibly be. Excitement prevailed to-day among those interested when it vvps found that the scene in which the fearful struggle between the dead girl and her assailant took place was not on the second floor of the pencil factory, as it was thought, where a few strands of her hair were found ir, the cogs of u steel lathe, but ill tilt dressing room of the place.

It was said that the discovery was made by some of the girls employed at the factory, who slipped upon the blood which, in one place, had formed a small pool. They ran out excited by the appearance of the place. The dead girl’s hair had only caught in the steel lathe when her murderer had dragged her by it. This would go to corroborate tin* belief of several persons acquainted with the tragedy’s various angles that Mary Phagan never left the building, or at least only for a short while from the time she entered it to get her money Saturday until her life less form was picked up and carried ; from the basement by the authorities. silver and which has not yet been found, did not contain any valuables and she had very little money in It.
