Some of our most prominent men, and

the initiative in contributing to the

"Let every woman give something.
Jhowever small the amount, and in the
aggregation of these such a sum will
be acquired as shall employ and re

that has been so continuously and
generously given, and will tje given in
the search for the criminal.
"To systematize this wholesale giv

of endeavor—in offices, in plants, in
stores or wherever women congre

Black’Scores Burns Man.
Detective John Black, who has
been working on the Phagan case in
conjunction with Pinkerton Detec
tive Harry Scott. Tuesday declared
that Detective Tobie, the Burns man,
was not justified in his charge that
certain features of the mystery have
been overlooked.
"Mr. Tobie has gone entirely too far
in his statements,” said Detective
Black. “He doesn’t know what has
been done by detectives on this case,
and doesn’t know what evidence we
have in our possession. We are not
showing our hand to everyone who
comes along. If he can show us some
thing in this case that has been over
looked, then we’ll think he knows
what he is talking about, but unless
he does show something, we’ll attach
no importance, whatever, to his state
ments.”
Detective Scott declined to discuss
the Burns detective’s theory or posi
tion in the case. As to the Pinker
ton’s part in the affair, he said:
"We have worked this case from
fully 500 different angles. Every pos
sible phase and feature has been in
vestigated. Nothing has been over
looked. The public has no idea of the
tftany and varied angles that have
been presented by this tragedy.”

Fate Next Month
Alonzo L. Lynn's motion for a new
trial, whereby he hopes to evade a
life sentence for the killing of F. M.
Hightower at the Lynn home in Lau
rens County, December 18, 1912, will
be decided by the Supreme Court aft
er its next opinion day in the middle
of June.
The motion wes argued Monday be
fore Justices Atkinson, Evans and
Hill. Solicitor General Stephens of
Laurens County and Judge John S.
Adams argued fqr the affirmation of
the lower court’s decree. Stephen P.
New and George B. Davis, of Dublin,
represented Lynn.
Hightower, a Confederate veteran,
was found dead in the Lynn home.
A Burns detective, employed by the
State, ferreted out evidence and ad
duced a theory of conspiracy, result-
ing in the indictment of Lynn and
his wife. Alice Lynn.
Mrs. Lynn admitted firing the shut
which killed the veteran, but swore he
had made improper proposals to her.
After deliberating five days, the Jury
acquitted Mrs. Lynn, but found Lynn
guilty of murder, recommending life
-Imprisonment. Judge Hawkins im
posed the full sentence.
Motion for a new trial by Lynn’s
httorneys was predicated upon 21 as
sumptions of error. Chief among them
was the charge that the Grand Jury
sat in unlawful session, that improper
testimony was admitted to evidence
and that the evidence was insufficient
to convict. The detective secured
most of his evidence from a dicto
graph put in Lynn’s calle while he

Gladys Hanson, as she is known to
fame, beautiful Atlanta actress who
has just come back home for a six-
weeks’ vacation, stopped serving tea
and leaned forward. She was at her
country place out on Cleburne Ave
nue.
“The truth is this: The. limelight
is always turned, full force, on the
stage when it is not on other profes
sions. As soon as an actress does an
imprudent or perhaps an unconven
tional thing, the news immediately
spreads—and it gathers force as it
spreads. Elsewhere there is less pub
licity, and therefore a better chance
for covering things up, that’s all.’*
Urges Stage for Girls.
Miss Hanson, who belongs to one
of Georgia’s oldest families, and who
is in love with her art to her finger
tips, has just finished a successful
ten-months’ season with David Be-
lasco in “The Governor’s Lady,” In
the six years she has been on the
stage she has been wonderfully suc
cessful, having been with Frohman,
Sothern and other big directors be
sides Belasco. She strongly advo
cates the stage as a profession for
young women. ,
“There never have been such op
portunities for capable young wom
en as there are to-day.” she de
clared, dropping a bit of lemon into a
cup of tea, “and really it’s almost
nonsense to talk about stage evils and
morals at all. The stigma that for
merly attached to the theater is al
most a thing of the past, for the sim
ple reason that people have come
more and more to realize that im
morality is not confined to class, but
is purely individual.
More Actors of Big Brains.
"Also year by year the stage Is
being more and more occupied by per
sons of big brains—big souls—people
who are realities, and who are there
because of the big ‘call.’ ”
"And that ’call’ is the great thing,”
she stressed. ”1 don’t care what you
say. When people follow their star,
as it were—when they feel the burn
ing of the ‘spark’ inside and set out
to give it expression, it means the
development of soul. And people of
great souls can only be good.

Ousted Official
Holds City Cash
WASHINGTON. GA., May 20.—
Whether the Mayor or City Treasurer
is the legal custodian of city funds
will be argued at Warrenton to-day
before Judge B. F. Walker, of Toombs
Circuit, on a writ of mandamus
brought by the Mayor and Council of
Washington against City Treasurer
F. H. Fickfen.
Mayor Favor claims that he has the
right to say when and for what pur
poses the city finances shall be used,
while Treasurer Fieklen holds to a
contrary view. When $30,000 of bond
money for city paving was placed in
the hands of Treasurer Ftcklen, May
or Favor issued vouchers against the
fund aggregating $21,000, w-hich the
City Treasurer refused to pay until he
was advised of the purpose of the
disbursement and otherwise consult
ed in the matter.
Upon this refusal the City Council
declared the office of City Treasurer
vacant and ordered the Treasurer to
place the city funds in certain deposi
tories at once. He refused.
The court's aid has now been in
voked by the Mayor and Council to
require the Treasurer to surrender the
city’s cash.

ingly, "the world looks upon the stage
from an outsider's standpoint, and,
therefore, can only criticise from that
angle, which may be entirely wrong.
“For instance, many times I have
seen a man rush back to a dressing
room, where the actress with whom
he was to appear was In negligee and
making up, to run over the lines in a
coming scene. But 1 only wish that
the public might see how In earnest
It all is.
Had to Ignore Convention.
"The man is not sure of himself in
the scene, and if he did not seize this
moment, he might make a botch of the
play, and he could not wait until the
actress was all ‘made up.’
"But, as they go over the lines they
practically do not see each other—
they are like two machines. The
thought of everything is sunk in the
play. He talks his lines in quick,
high tones, and she comes in with hers
to meet him. And the moment that
is done he rushes out like mad to get
ready to ‘go on.'
"Don’t you ever believe.” Miss Han
son emphasized, "that the rules in
practically all theaters are not strict.
And in high-class houses it is prac
tically the same as in your own home.
The people are all big people—they're
men and women—they’re not silly
nincompoops!
"Again, if a girl enters the pro
fession, she can be sure that if she
gets with a good director—and there
are more good ones than otherwdse —
she is going to be pushed along to
success—not only by her own effort,
but by hts—for he Is just as anxious
for her to make good as she Is to
make good herself.
Finds Splendid Associate*.
"She will usually find a number of
splendid women to associate with, too
—If she'll keep her eyes open—and
also a number of broad-minded men.
There’s where she may learn many
things about her art—they will ail
help her—and that and working hard
will get her her to the top if she has
any 'possibilities' at all. If for no
other reason, I would have been glad
I had gone on the stage simply for
the people I have met.”
Miss Hanson expects to go abroad
for the summer. She will return the
latter part of August for rehearsals,
being again with. Belasco. She an!
Emma Dunn, one of her best friends,
will again appear for a time In "The
Governor's Lady,” later taking up oth
er w ork Mr. Belasco has not yet made
public. While 1n Atlanta Miss Snook
expects to be quite a great deal with
her friends, a number of parties hav
ing been planned for her.
Calls Atlanta Hers, Too.
Speaking of Atlanta things, she said
it almost made her angry—that Is, it
would if she wasn't so even-tempered,
for which she took credit to herself—
when she was out and people asked
her how she liked "our" country club,
or "our" city—or other things.
"Why, It's mine, too," she said. "I
don’t feel that just because I'm away
in the winter this Isn't my home. Why,
I grew up here and I belong to the
place! Of course, it's usually stran
gers. who don't know, who ask me
things like that; but. all the same, 't
gives me a funny little feeling around
mi hea"'. 1 feel Just like I ought io
be asking them instead, being”—she
hesiiated and laughed—"as I was here
first!"
WALKER SHOWS
Macon Banker Making Remarka^
ble Fight Against Poison—His
Condition Still Critical.
MACON, GA., May 20.—Anoth-
er slight sluggish action of B.
Senders Walker’s kidneys to*day
gave the attending physicians
still more hope for hig ultimate
recovery. Walker's pulse is 118
and his respiration 30. He is still
very weak.
MACON. GA .. May 20.—After hav
ing: made all. even minute, prepara
tions to die. under the belief that his
death was inevitable and a matter of
only a few days, B. Sanders Walker,
Jr., the banker and real estate oper
ator, is now given the hope that pos
sibly he will survive the accidental
taking of a bichloride of mercury tab
let by mistake for a headache pill.
From Thursday until Monday Mr.
Walker’s kidneys were paralyzed, but
then there was a slight manifesta
tion, sufficient to Justify the attend
ing physicians in holding out a little
encouragement to the man who for
five days has regarded himself as on
the very brink of the grave. Two
physicians have been at Mr. Walker’s
bedside almost from the minute when
the terrible pains in his stomach
showed that he had taken poison in
stead of an aspirin tablet, and they
have employed heroic remedies. From
all parts of the United StateR have
come about 40 telegrams from persons
who were similarly poisoned or from
doctors and nurses suggesting meth
ods of treatment.
Nurse Suggests Remedy.
One such message came from a
young woman nurse at Johns Hop
kins Hospital, suggesting that a rem
edy of flax seed and olive oil might
save the fast ebbing life of the dying
man, as It had her own when she had
her own w hen she had been In a sim
ilar condition. If he lives, Walker
will owe his life to this young wom
an. of whose existence he was not
even aware—a person whom he would
not know* were he to meet her face
to face.
This remedy has been applied and
has given Walker a fighting chance
for life. Euremic poisoning had al
ready set In when the doctors decided
to adopt the suggestion of the young
woman, and unless relief had been
immediate Walker would soon have
succumbed.
#/isitors Now Excluded.
All persons, except his wife, doc
tors and nurses, are now kept from
Mr. Walker. The physicians say that
the announcement to him that he
might survive, after he . had gone
through the ordeal of preparing for
death, brought on a nerVous attack
and Intensified his weakness. It was
believed necessary, as well as ethical,
however, to tell the stricken man that
he had a chance to live.
B. S. Walker. Sr., of Monroe, the
father; Cliff M. Walker. Solicitor
General of the Western Circuit, who
is a brother, and other relatives are
at the residence.
Mrs. Walker Is making a fight that
is the wonder of her friends. In her
husband’s company she has been ever
brave and cheerful. Not once has she
presented anything but a courageous
front.
Walker’s Nerve Unbroken.
Walker’s first thought when told by
the doctors that death was sure to re
sult from his mistaken dose was of
his business; his second, of his friends.
He immediately sent for his business
associates, and in a short while had
given definite intructions concerning
the final disposition of all his affairs.
Following the winding up of his
business, he called in his friends, an
nounced his doom and gave them one
and all a cheerful farewell.
His cool nerve during the strain of
the last three days has been the cause
of comment upon the days when, as a
star athlete for the University of
Georgia, he time and again demon
strated the fact that he wag possessed
of an indomitable spirit that held him
up when his teammates were break
ing in their support.
Still on Brink of Eternity.
The friends who knew him a few
days ago as the picture of health and
a perfect specimen of manhood can
hardly realize that following his trag
ic error in taking bichloride of mer
cury tablets Instead of the headache
medicine, he has been doomed to
death, and that, although hope Is now
expressed for his recovery, he Is even
yet standing upon the brink of eter
nity.
Policeman Hit by
Auto Nabs Driver
City Detective L. F. Carter is being
congratulated by his friends for the
agility and coolness which he dis
played Monday night when he nar
rowly' escaped being run down by an
automobile driven by J. A. Brigman,
of Decatur.
Carter was crossing Forsyth at Ma
rietta Street, and w'hen struck by th*>
machine, sprang up on the hood,
w'here he perched until the car was
stopped. Carter Immediately arrested
Brigman and charged him with reck
less driving. Brigman was released
without bail.
Court Rules Clubs
Can’t Sell Liquor
The Court of Appeals, in a decision
handed down Tuesday, held that it
was illegal for an employee of a social
club to sell whisky, even though
did not derive any profit from the
sale. The decision was in the case
of Ike Rothchild. steward of the
Brunswick Oglethorpe Club.
The court said: "It is no defense
that the accused sold the liquor as an
employee of a social club. Intoxicat
ing liquor can not be sold in the State
by an individual or company as a
beverage.”
