mentioned as a candidate until to-day. Notwithstanding the un
expected fight made on Atlanta and the surprising nature of it,
there is good feeling among the Shriners and no bitterness will
result.
Atlanta was magnificent' vindicated and won with a whoop
when the delegates could gt to the voting The date of the meet
ing has not yet been fixed.
ALL LIFT HAT TO ATLANTA.
Atlanta's great victory is the talk of all Dallas. The wonder
ful tight put up. the remarkable courage dispa.ved and the mag
nificent rally from an unexpected hostile development has lifted
Dallas’ hat to Atlanta and everybody is complimenting the Crack
ers on all sides.
Buffao's Temple never asked for next year's meeting; did not
want it, and was practically without its knowledge, it was realized
that Yaarab had won the fight, and it was hoped by those hostile
to the Cate City to combine Buffalo and the already defeated
Memphis to Atlanta’s undoing.
How it all failed, and how Adair ’s magnificent standing in the
Shrine carried the floor tight by storm all go to make one of the
most interesting chapters in Shrine history.
It as 2:40 p. in. when the result was known.
The imperial potentate’s hostility to Allanta is hard to ex
plain, but, as i is, no one is trying to explain it particularly. There
will he no bitterness deeloped by the fight.

A poem said to have been written
by Mary Uhagan will form one of the
specimens of tier handwriting which
^ i 11 be compared with the notes
found in the basement of the National
Pencil Factory. The poem is entitled
“My Pa.” and Mary is said by her
stepfather, .1. YV. Coleman, to have
been the author.
The poem follows:
He’s offul smart!
He ain’t no carpenter, but he can fix a
feller’s cart;
My pa ain’t no inillyunaire, but. Gee!
He ain’t no doctor, but you can bet lie
alius knows
Just what to do to fix a boy what’s got
a bloody nose!
My pa ain’t president becoz. he says,
he never run.
Hut he could do as well as any presi
dent has done.
A president may beat my pa at pilin’
up the vote.
But he can’t beat him. T will bet,
a-whittlin’ out a boat!
N' pa ain’t rich, but that’s becoz he
never tried to be;
He ain’t no lectrlcian. but one day he
fixed the telephone for me!
M> pa ain’t never wrote a book, but 1
know he could,
Becoz the stories that he tells to me
are alius powerful good!
W' p« knows everything, I guess, an*
you bet I don’t care
'Coz he ain’t president or rich as any
millyunaire!
Whenever things g<> wrong, my pa can
make ’em right, you see;
An if he ain't rich or president, my
pa's good enough fer me!

edge of the affair had been misrep

office she declared, dramatically:
“If anyone has told any lies on me
in connection with this murder they
will certainly suffer for It.’’
The daughter of Mrs. Barrett wai

Move for Fingerprint Bureau.
The Police Commission at its meet
ing Tuesday night authorized a
thorough investigation Into the ad
visability of establishing a finger

result of the mystery that has con

been cleared up within a few days had
the city had a fingerprint expert.
There were several distinguishable
fingerprints found in i/ie factory base

perience in detective work believe that
i they might have developed the most
i valuable* clews in establishing the
identity of the criminal.
Chief of Police Beavers told the
commission of instances In which fin
gerprints had fixed the guilt of pris
oners when there were no other clews.
He was appointed by the commission
to work with one of the commlsslon-
• rs in making an investigation into
the feasibility of the bureau plan.
Friends Say Frank’s
Actions Point to Innocence.
If Leo M. Frank is guilty of any
connection with the murder of Mary
i PhUfttin, his actions in the Tower be
lie the time-honored theories of the
greatest criminologists the world has
: ever produced, visitors to the prison-
| er declare.
Famous psychologists, working on
the supposition that the great weight
of guilt upon the mind of a murderer
will. If given time. Anally overbal
ance the calm exterior with which he
faces his accusers, have made excel
lent use of what they have termed
“silent treatment.”
Prisoners accused of horrible crimes
have been thrown into cells and left
to brood in the long hours of the
night Often a scream, ringing down
the prison corridors, will tell the tale
of their guilt. Tell keepers, rushing
up. have found prisoners r? -enacting
their crimes, muttering the same
words they used when they slew their
victims and beating the air with their
fists. In one celebrated case demon
strating this, the man beat his brains
out against the bars before he could
be rescued, fils action, it was claim
ed afterward, was due to overpower
ing remorse following the realistic
pantomime of the death scene in
which he figured.
The psychological theory is com
monplace. The mind of the murder
er contains two sections—the normal
and the subconscious. It is in the first
that he frames his denial of guilt:
yet the truth is always present, lurk
ing in the subconscious mind. And
there it remains until finally the ter
rible pressure brought to bear by its
weight will overpower the normal
mind and prevail. It is then the
prisoner is easily trapped into an ad
mission of his guilt.
Quiet Alone Needed.
For such a state to be brought in
the mind of a prisoner quiet and
solitude are required. He must he
left to brood over the crime. Then it
is that the horror to the human
mind of what he has done will finally
wreck the denial the guilty man has
drawn up, and in despair his confes
sion follows in such cases the aelf-’
confessed criminal is a case for ab
ject pity. The mental fight through
which he has gone and lost is pitiful.
It affects his entire physical being
as well, and oftentimes following
such cases the prisoner has been
found prostrated on the floor of his
cell.
In striking contrast to this theory
is the deportment of Frank since
his incarceration at the Tower. Con
fined on the theory that he had a
hand in the death of the Phagan
girl; placed in a lonely cell; passing
his nights in solitude; never at any
time set-ing the light of day exce >:
as a prisoner in the clutches of the
law, with its Iren bars, steel doors
and uniformed officers. Frank has
maintained throughout the two
\\»*eks of his imprisonment a surpris
ing degree of cheerfulness.
To his friends who have been per
mitted to see him Frank has prover
by his attitude, if nothin 0, else, h.s
innocence, they declare.
“If Frank were a guilty man." said
Dr David Mar* the noted Jewish
rabbi and a personal frJend of the
pencil factory superintendent, ‘‘he
would have been crazy by now. He
could not have withstood the solitud
and conditions to which he has been
subjected by the law. That he re
mains calm and cheerful’ is proot
conclusive that he is innocent, for in
nocence alone could save a man's
mind under such conditions.”
Vmong the other of Frank’s many
friends who have visited him at th**
Tower wort Leopold Haas, of Haas
& McIntyre, real estate dealers.
The developments in Atlanta's con
test up to the time of the victory is
indicated in the following news story
from The Georgian’s correspondent:
B;' JAMES B NEVIN.
DALLAS, TEX., May 14.-Take
Forrest Adair's word for it, Atlanta
is going to win to-day.
Just before closing campaign rec
ords and going into the session of
the imperial council of the Mystic
Shrine to-day Mr. Adair and his
faithful Yaarab boosters and boom
ers held a final council of war.
After checking every name on th>*
rolls of representatives and the im
perial council, and after tightening
up all the rivets everywhere, the
conference decided that Atlanta
should win over Memphis by approx
imately two to one, and that only
the most unexpected and unantici
pated complication could prevent At
lanta capturing the 1914 gathering.
It is not to be supposed that this
campaign in Dallas has been all easy
sailing. On the contrary, much of
It has been exceedingly rough, al
though never dangerous, so far .is
the Taarabs could see.
Memphis has made a game fight
and has had stout-hearted friends
on hand waging her battle. It has
been clearly shown, however, that
Atlanta has very much the better of
Memphis in the matter of hotel ac
commodations, and the Dallas gath
ering has been flooded with Invita
tions from officials of Georgia and
the city of Atlanta, clubs and busi
ness organization's, as well as many
privute persons.
The publicity work has been in
telligently handled. That large en
tertainment fund, reaching well to
ward $100,000, coupled with the as
surance that there is more money
where that came from, all served
to make Atlanta's success seeming
ly certain.
Little Talk of “Dark Horse.”
There has been some jealousy
cropping out. of course. Some del
egates having no particular love 'Zi
ther for Atlanta or Memphis, al
though few of that sort have been In
evidence, have undertaken to start
talk of a "dark horse,” and in that
connection, both Atlantic City and
Boston have been mentioned as ac
ceptable meeting places for next
year. Baltimore has also been men*
tioned.
In the main, however, the content
for the nonor of entertaining the
imperial council has been confined to
Atlanta and Memphis, with Atlanta
always leading easily.
It is predicted that there will be a
much larger crowd in Atlanta next
year than is now in Dallas. In the
first place, the Shriners have been
convinced that Atlanta has the hotel
accommodations and the funds to
make things hum, neither of which
Dallas has had to the extent of mak
ing this year’s session all it might
have been.
In the second place, the enthusiasm
of the Atlanta delegation has been of
a genuinely winning variety all the
time. It is a foregone conclusion that
the Imperial Council is to meet in
San Francisco in 1915, the year of
the Panama Exposition, and for that
reason it is the purpose of the Shrin
ers to have next year’s session in the
Fast.
Ballot Wednesday Afternoon.
The balloting on next year's meet
ing. expected to take place between
now and 1 o’clock, was deferred till
later in the afternoon.
It is expected that Atlanta will win
easily in the early stages of the vot
ing. ’ If intelligent leadership, ear
nestness of purpose and thoroughness
of method count for anything, For
rest Adair’s fight should win to-day.
He reached lu re among the very first,
and .here is not a delegate or a rep-
resentativ whom he has not seen per
sonally. When Atlanta has won. For
rest Adair's place as a master politi
cian and manager of men will be es
tablished. He is a wonder and he
knows Shrine politics from beginning
to end. He is intimately acquainted
with the men who manage the af
fairs of the Shrine. They have been
his warm personal friends for years,
and they are standing by him man-
fuPv now—just as he has stood by
th m manfully in the past.
Indeed, all the Atlanta delegation
has worked faithfully and hard for
their city's success to-day
The last word Mr. Adair delivered
to me for transmission to The Geor
gian just before he left the Hotel
\dolphus for the Imperial Council
session to-day was. ’Tell them 1 am
going to bring home the bacon, as 1
promised to, all for the glory of the
Imperial Order of the Shrine, and for
the glory of old Atlanta."
And he is going to do it, too. As
one Shriner remarked to me to-day,
“Atlanta’s fight was won the minute
that man Adair hit Dallas, if it wasn’t
won before that.”
Parade a Big Spectacle.
Last night's big panade was a mag
nificent spectacle. More than 15,000
Shriners, either in glittering patrol
robes or the more formal dress suit,
and red fez, were in line. The parade
required two good hours to pass a
given point, as there were, besides the
Shriners’ 41 bands, numerous camels,
chariots, mounted officials and queer
and dinky contraptions propelled in
one way and another—rigged up the
Lord only knows how by Shriners In
accord with some inner Shrine phil
osophy not revealed to the profane and
unregenerate sons of the desert. That
parade, amplified and extended as it
likely will be in Atlanta next year,
is going to look mighty fetching along
Whitehall and Peachtree, even as I
said in a previous wire about the great
parade of the Arab patrol.
Certain differences between the un
ion bands marching in the parade and
the Yaarab Drum Corps of Atlanta
were amicably adjusted, and the At
lanta drummers marched in both pa
rades yesterday. This incident, which
I for a time looked as if it might give
rise to some embarrassing complica
tion, was smoothed out and has caus
ed no unpleasantness whatever. Not
a band was missing from last night’s
parade, and the drum corps was all
there, playing its part in the parade
handsomely.
Only One Contest for Offics.
The only contest for any office is
over that of imperial outer guard, the
lowest of the Imperial Council offi
cers. There are a dozen or more can
didates for this place. All other of
ficers move up consecutively each
year, making the list of officers to
be chosen to-day, except 'imperial
outer guard, as follow s:

granted by the Imperial Council to
San Diego, Cal.: East St. Louis, Ill.;
Parkersburg, \V. Y’a., and Nashville,
Tenn. ‘Dispensations were granted
Shreveport, La., and Halifax, Nova

Cunningham made his formal report
at an open meeting held in the Scot

• Present for Governor Colquitt.
The Georgia Shriners will present
Governor Colquitt, of Texas, a hand
some loving cup to-day. as an evi
dence of their appreciation of his
open friendliness to the cause of
Georgia and Atlanta, in the matter
of choosing next year’s meeting place.
The Governor spent yesterday and
part of to-day in Dallas, riding in the
parade of the patrols with the im
perial potentate as an especial guest
of honor. He is a native Georgian,
and has not failed to let all with
whom he has talked to-day know it.
As a matter of fact. Governor Col
quitt actually boasts brazenly and
outspokenly of his Georgia ancestry
and the fact that he was born in
Georgia. He is a Brooks County man
and is closely related to the family
of the late Governor and Senator
Alfred H. Colquitt.
Because of these facts and his
friendship to the cause of Atlanta, the
Georgia Shriners have determined to
honor him with a Georgia loving cup
of solid silver as an evidence of their
good will. The Governor has no idea
that he is to receive the cup. It will
be presented t<> him Thursday in Aus
tin by Illustrious Potentate Adair,
who. with a number of Yaarab dele
gates. will leave Thursday morning
for a swing around Texas
Austin, the capital, will be the first
stopping point out of Dallas
YAARAB PATROL
Atlanta's hotels will easily accommo
date the thousands of those who will
come for that occasion.
“The Shriners’ convention undoubt
edly will be the largest ever held In
Atlanta,” declared Henry Davis, cash
ier of the Lowry National Bank.
Wednesday afternoon, when he heard
of the victory. “It will be a great
thing for the city to have the honor
of entertaining these splendid men.
It will help Atlanta in many ways.
Yaarab Shrine’s action bears out the
Atlanta tradition of getting every
thing we go after. I feel sure that
the bankers will co-operate in every
way to make their home-coming a
gala occasion.”
Colonel Peel Delegated.
Colonel YV. L. Peel, president of
the American National Bank, con
curred fully with Mr. Davis.
"I am delighted to hear that the
Shriners will come to Atlanta next
year,” said Colonel Peel. “I am sure
that they will be pleased with At
lanta and will have a good time. The
entire city will throw Itself open to
their entertainment and when they
leave every Shriner among them will
carry naught but good wishes for us.
It will be a great event.”
Governor-elect John M. Slaton de
clared that he could not express too
much enthusiasm for the coming of
the Shriners.
“It will be the first time that this
splendid body has ever held forth in
the Southeast." said Mr. Slaton. “They
couldn’t come to a better city than
Atlanta for their initiation.
“Hurrah,” Says Slaton.”
“It will mean a great thing for the
South in general. Once the Shriners
get started down here they will con
tinue year by year. The hospitality
which Atlanta will extend to them
will provide an everlasting memory
of the sunny, generous Southland.
Hurrah for the Yaarab Temple, and
the valiant work they did.”
From Robert F. Maddox came the
declaration that the Shriners would
be given the time of their lives. Mr.
Maddox is a member of the executive
committee of the Yaarab Temple, and
it was largely through his endeavors
that the campaign to secure the next
convention for Atlanta.
“To the citizens of this city as well
as the members of the Yaarab Temple
is due the honor for winning the bat
tle,” declared Mr. Maddox. “If it had
not been for their genrous and spon
taneous subscription to the campaign,
the Atlanta delegates would not have
had the heart to fight as they did
and win.
Sure Clubs All Will Aid.
“It is such spirit as this that has
made this city the great community
that it is and with a continuance of
it Atlanta’s prosperity will know no
bounds. I am sure that the visitors
will be taken care of comfortably.
Every club in the city will throw its
doors wide open, I am positive.”
J. K. Ottley, vice president of the
Fourth National Bank, said:
"It was a wonderful achievement
for a city of this size. It will win
over to Atlanta the good wishes and
hearty thanks of every Shriner who
visits us next year. The manner of
our winning is characteristic of the
• smi ' t and nrogressivene. c *s of Atlanta.
And we will follow' It up with such
•* ’t\ such as has never been
given the Shriners before, and never
■ ot given to them again, unless
they return here.”
Mayor Is Not Surprised.
Mayor Woodward said:
“I am delighted, but not surprised,
at the success. Atlanta generally
gets what she goes after, and I felt
sure that it would be the same in
this instance. It will afford me the
greatest pleasure to turn the city over
to the Shriners. I am sure that the
welcome which will be accorded them
by Atlanta’s citizens will be one of
the warmest they have ever received.
They will wish they had found this
fairest city of the fair South before."
Another violent outbreak against
the authority of the game laws was
reported to State Game Warden Jesse
E. Mercer Wednesday by two of his
deputies.
E. L. Waggoner and A. S. Johnston,
of Clarkston, DeKalb County, were
targets for a fusillade of shots Tues
day night when encamped near the
banks of the Venable pond at Stone
Mountain
Due either to the poor aim of the
poachers or to their intention of only
scaring the deputies away, neither of
the officers was wounded.
Mercer to Investigate.
The outbreak at Stone Mountain, in
conjunction with the trouble at Mill-
town, where Deputy Boisclalr report
ed that he was arrested, threatened
and nearly mobbed, is engaging the
entire time of the Slate Game War
den’s office.
After instructing Deputy Waggon
er that he should not hesitate to re
turn the fire if there w f as any more
shooting, Mr Mercer made prepara
tions to go in person to Mllltown with
Deputy Boisclalr, there to investigate
for himself the exact conditions.
The cases against the persons for
whom Boisclalr swore out warrants
for wishing illegally at Milltown will
be heard Monday and Mr. Mercer
will be at the hearing. Boisclalr also
will be a defendant. the charge
against him being carrying concealed
weapon?.
“Clear Out” Order Starts Row.
.The uprising at Venable pond was
due to a recent order of the Game
Warden to clear out the persons who
were fishing there without permis
sion. The owners of the property
about the pond had notified Mr. Mer
cer that they were absolutely help
less.
They said their property had been
demolished and burned and their
boats had been scuttled by the out
law fishermen. They appealed to the
Warden for protection.
Deputies Waggoner and Johnston
were instructed to patrol the pond
and get evidence against anyone who
was fishing Illegally. They camped
on the lake at night. They declared
Wednesday that as soon as their pur
poses became known they heard
threats against their safety.
“I shall not permit my deputies to
be intimidated,” said Mr. Mercer. “If
this lawlessness continues, it will only
mean that I will simply throw a larger
force of men into Stone Mountain to
protect the property owners there."
