LIBERTY NEAR FOR 4 "KSi'Li.
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 auffragette attempted to
break up the great Derby at Epaom
Down? to-day and nearly succeeded,
with a tragical result.
Just as the horses were rounding
Tattenheim corner a woman rushed
from the side lines and aei2ed 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 eaw the iniehap
were thrilled and shocked It hap
pened with lightning suddennees.
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
f^verved as she Jumped for the reins,
but she managed to secure a Arm
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, Uhanczllor 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.
Child, Given Choice,
To Live With Bishop
NEW YORK, June 4.—Pretty Mu
riel Bishop, whose mother, Abigail
Hancock Bishop, secured a divorce
from her millionaire banker husband,
James Cunningham Bishop, last week,
to-day was awarded to the custody
of her father.
Mrs. Bishop, fearful that the child
would renounce her in favor of Mr.
Bishop, did not attend the conference
of lawyers in Justice Goff's cham
bers and sent word that she would
consent to Muriel being in custody of
her father if she (Mrs. Bishop) might
be allowed to see her often.
Young Girl Favorite
In Title Golf Play
GLENCOVE. N. Y., June 4.—When
the second round of match play be
gan this morning in the Woman’s
Fourteenth Metropolitan Golf Cham
pionship, the title was declared to be
in as much doubt as before the quali
fying round started.
The one best bet was thought to be
Miss Marion Hollins, of New York,
hardly more than a schoolgirl, who
last year proved Metropolitan runner-
up.
MUBKOGEE. OKLA.. June 4.—The
eighth annual session of the Sunday
School Congress of the National Bap
tist Convention opened here to-day

the United States.

Muskogee was the train bearing the
officials of the Sunday School Con
gress with the Tennessee, Georgia,
Bouth Carolina. Virginia, New York,
Florida and Mississippi delegations.
It was known as the “Official Sunday
School Congress Train.”
Arrayed in Congress caps, a chorus
consisting of 262 voices sang "Hail
the Baptist Congress’’ as the train
pulled In.
The first subject under dlffcuiwlon
was “Interdenominational Sunday
School, Organizations. National and
International, Their Theoretical and
Practical Value.” There were a half-
dozen papers read taking up this in
detail. The next subject was "Why
Should the Pastor and Church Urge
the Organization of Teacher-Train
ing Classes?”
Officers have labored to make the
Congress the most brilliant Sunday
school gathering In the history of the
interdonomlnation.
It 1« not known Just how many cit
ies are clamoring for the next ses
sion, but It was learned from Henry
A. Boyd, secretary, that Invitations

Sheriff Says Negroes Will Be
Freed Next Week Unless
Alibis Are Broken.
KOKOMO, 1ND., Jun.: Th* con-
ditlpn of Russell Gifford, whose back
was broken In an automobile acci
dent near thin city, 18 days ago. is
puzzling the physicians. Immediate
ly after Gifford was tdken 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. Giftyrd
is paralyzed from his chest down and
has only the slightest use of hip arms.
It is said that there is no similar
case on record where the person in
jured lived more than 14 days. The
physicians are beginning to think that
/Gifford’s spinal cord escaped serious
Injury, and they way 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 hody.
$3,000,000 Is Left
To Girl Bookkeeper

Fortune Was Made Public Before
She Actually Received Money.

ployed as a bookkeeper In a box fac

Wilmington, Del., have fallen heirs

by the father of the latter, who died
in England two years ago, leaving an
estate said to be valued at $3,000,000.
Admitting that she and her mother
had been made legatees in the will of
her grandfather, Miss Wade refused
to discuss the matter further when
Interviewed here. She deplored the
fast that the story had leaked out,
declaring that she preferred that final
settlement be made before the public
was apprised of her good fortune.
She has a sister In Wilmington, Del.,
and a brother whose whereabouts are
unknown.

White City Park Now Open
Sheriff J. A. McCurdy, of DeKalb
County, stated Wednesday morning I
that unless additional evidence is un
earthed soon, Walter Wilkes and Er
nest Maynard, negroes, held on sus
picion in the Stevens case, will be re
leased by the first of next week.
“I have about concluded.” said the
Sheriff, “that the negroes know noth
ing of the murder, and that they are
telling (he 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 a
complete alibi.”
The Investigations of Sheriff Mc
Curdy and Detective Rosser, however,
are by no mean* complete. Until the
negroes are released they will spend
their time trying to find a weak link
lr the alibis.
The theory of accident to account
for the death of the two women is
gaining ground steadily. Sheriff Mc
Curdy declared to-day that the af
fair looks more like an accident* all
the time.

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 of 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
a beneficial’ effect on the lungs and
nasal pasMages. 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. Rutchers 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 Ijke manner are stout,
healthy folk.
