THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS,
IN ATTEMPT TO
STOP DERBY
Woman Leaps and Grabs Bridle of
King George’s Racing Horse.
Trampled Fatally.
Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
EPSOM. ENGLAND, June 4.—A
militant suffragette attempted to
break up the great Derby at Epsom
Downs to-day and nearly succeeded,
with a tragical result.
Just as the horses were rounding
Tattenhelm corner a woman rushed
from the side lines and seized the
bridle of Anmer, a horse owned by
King George. Anmer crashed heavily
to the ground, hurling the Jockey over
his head. The woman was thrown
beneath the hoofs of the plunging
animal and was trampled fatally.
The thousands who saw the mishap
were thrilled and shocked. It hap
pened with lightning suddenness
The woman spectator had crowded
to a point as near the horses as she
could possibly get. Several of the
runners had flashed by, when she
darted from the crowd. Anmer
(swerved as she jumped for the reins,
bkt she managed to secure a firm
grasp upon them.
As she fell a mighty shout went up
from the grandstand and paddock.
When the horse staggered to its feet
women near the scene fainted at the
sight of the two still forms.
The woman was Identified as Emily
Wilding Davidson, B. A., of London
University, who has a police record
in connection with suffrage violence.
It was she who assaulted and se
riously injured an aged clergyman
last year when she mistook him for
David Lloyd George. Chancsllor of
the British Exchequer.
The woman was taken to .the hos
pital in a dying condition It was
first reported that she was dead. When
doctors reached her side she was ap
parently lifeless, but strong restora
tives were supplied and she rallied.
It was said, however, that she could
hardly survive the injuries.

WOT NEAR FOR
STEVENS SUSPECTS
Sheriff Says Negroes Will Be
Freed Next Week Unless
Alibis Are Broken.
Auto Victim Lives
With Broken Back
Sheriff J A. McCurdy, of DcKalh
County, slated Wednesday morning!
that unless additional evidence is un-l
earthed soon, Walter Wilkes and Er
nest Maynard, negroes, held on suh- 1
picion In the Stevens case, will he re- :
leased by the first of next week.
“I have abopt concluded.” said the
Sheriff, “that the negroes know noth
ing of the murder, and that they are
telling ihe truth. We have investi
gated carefully their stories of their
wnereabouts on the day and night of
,the murder, and have found evidence
that Induces the belief that they are
telling the truth. Three witnesses
have been found who swear that
Wilkes stayed In Atlanta all Tuesday
night, and the same number will swear
the same about Maynard. It begins
to look as though they had proved u
complete alibi.**
The investigations of Sheriff Mc
Curdy and Detective Rosser, however,
are by no means complete. Until the
negroes are released they will spend
their time trying to And a weak link
tr the alibis.
The theory of accident to account
for the death of the two women is
gaining ground steadily. Sheriff Mc-
T’urdy declared to-day that the af
fair looks more like an accident all
the time.
KOKOMO, INI)., June e—The con-
tion of Rintael) Gifford, whose hack
as broken in 411 automobile aefi-
h<*ar tfes efty, 18 days ago, is
debt.
ly after Gifford was taken* 7 to the
hospital, It was announced that he
had practicality no chance to live
longer than a few hours.
The fifth, seventh and ninth ver
tebrae were crushed and dislocated.
It seemed certain the spinal cord
had been injured and that death
would come in a little while. Gifford
is paralyzed from his chest down and
has only the slightest use of hie arms.
It is said that there is no similar
case of) "record where the person in
jured lived more than 14 days. The
pbtfZUng 'he^physicians. Immediate-' physician^ are beginning to think that
Gifford’s spinal cord escaped serious
injury, and they say that if they
can keep him nourished a little while
longer, they have hopes he will live
and recover, in part at least, the use
of his body.

Health Aid Found in
Trades by Experts
WASHINGTON. June '.—But few
people are aware that there are oc
cupations that bring health, just as
there are others that bring disease
In their train. There is, for instance,
the coal tar occupation.
Tar, with its strong, clean odor,
acts as an antiseptic, and those who
work In tar are immune to epidemic
diseases. They are also robust. The
feeble and anemic, taking up this
trade in its various forms—the mak
ing oT dyes, the preparation of dis
infectant—soon become strong.
Steel workers also profit In health
from their occupation. The molten
steel gives off certain gases that have
beneficial effect on the lungs and
nasal paswges. Though subjected to
extremes of heat, steel workers prac
tically never get consumption or ca
tarrh.
Bakers. If their bakeries are clean
and airy follow a trade that fattens the
veriest skeletons. Butchers are noted
for their ruddy, robust build, they,
like the bakers, seeming to absorb
through their pores the nutriment
they work in. Chocolate and cocoa
makers in like manner are stout,
healthy folk.
