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!

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! Woman Witness Excited. Mrs Mary Barrett, the woman who is said to have been in the factory the Saturday afternoon that Mary Phagan was killed, was in a state o* great excitement when she emerged from the office of Solicitor Dorsey Tueada> afternoon. She had been summoned by Mi? Solicitor to tell of what she saw while she was at the factory. It was BREATHE HYOMEI FOR CATARRH Health Comes From Knowing How and What to Breathe.

When she came from the 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 heard to tell the Solicitor: 'Til talk with her to-night, and then maybe she’ll do what you ask." 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 print identification system in Atlan ta. This move was made largely ns a result of the mystery that has con tinued to surround the Phagan case ind the possibility that it might have 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 ment, Persons who have had ex 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: Imperial potentate. Williaiff W. Ir win. Wheeling, W.

Charters for new temples were 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 Scotia. The first business session was held yesterday and Imperial Potentate Cunningham made his formal report at an open meeting held in the Scot tish Rite Cathedral. The order now has 133 temples, his report stated, and on January 1 last the membership was 185,446. a net gain for the year of 12.790. He said the funds of the Imperial Council on hand March 1 were $114,421. After the adjournment of the Impe rial Council this afternoon various so cial functions will be given in Da "as In honor of the visitors, and to-night and to-morrow they will begin their returning caravans home. A large number of Atlantans will make a short tour of Texas, while others will return home via Hot Springs. Ark. The entire outfit should bo home by Sunday morning. Forrest Adair with the bacon. • 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." JACKSONVILLE. FLA.. May 14.- H. P. McNeil, a wealthy saloon man of this city, was shot at his Pablo Beach summer home to-day and is now in a local hospital with a bullet in his brain. The attending physi cians say he can not recover. His wife and chauffeur were arrested, charged with the crime. The chauffeur told the police that the three went together in a ro:>m in the house, and that McNeil drew a gun on his wife. When he at tempted to dissuade McNeil from shooting, the chauffeur said, he was knocked down, and in the scuffle which followed McNeil was shot In the back of the head. McNeil is a brother of W. D.
