H. Townsend. No. 84 Whitehall ter
race, cashier Central Bank and Trust
Corporation.
W. S. Medcalf, No. 136 Kirkwood
avenue, circulation department of The
Atlanta Journal.
C. J. Bosshardt, No. 216 Bryan
street, pressman Foote & Davies.
Bosshardt, the twelfth Juror chosen,
was the last venireman in the last
panel that had been called Defore the
court at the opening of court in the
morning. He was picked at exactly
1:26 o’clock and at 1:30 the recess
was taken until 3 o’clock.
Attorney Rosser took very little
part in the selection of the Jury, ex
cept to interject a suggestion now
and then. He evidently was reserv
ing his strength for the real struggle
Lo come.
Shortly before 2 o’clock Leo Frank
was taken into a room adjoining the
juryroom, where he was served with
a special dinner provided for him by
his relatives. Frank’s mother and
wife were allowed to converse with
him while he ate the dinner. He will
remain in this room until the court
reconvenes at 3 o’clock.
Wife and Mother With Frank.
Frank, accompanied by his wife and
his mother, was brought into the
courtroom at 10:30 o’clock. The strik.
ing of the jury was begun at once.
A half dozen of Frank’s friends in
terrupted the order of the court for
several minutes by clustering about
him and shaking hand? with him.
If there was any fear in the heart
of the young prisoner it did tyot show
in* his calm features. He seemed per
fectly assured and self-possessed. Ho
nodded pleasantly to the judge and
greeted his friends with a smiles.
After the stir had subsided, cover
ing the entrance of Frank, his wife
and mother, the trio took seats In a
semi-circle just below' the bench.
Frank and his mother took a good
look at the jurors in the first panel
that was brought in. The prisoner
scrutinized each one closely as he was
quizzed by the prosecutor to deter
mine his qualifications.
Wife Fixes Gaze on Dorsey.
Mrs. Frank displayed no sign of
emotion until she suddenly found that
she was facing Solicitor Dorsey. Then
inger appeared to blaze from her eyes
She seldom removed her gaze from
the Solicitor’? face during the fore
noon. If Dorsey was aware of the
young woman's scrutiny, he made no
sign and proceeded with the case in
rapid fashion.
Occasionally Mrs. Frank would turn
to her husband and nod toward the
Solicitor as though she was ridicul
ing the efforts to convict Frank. Mrs.
Frank was attired in a becoming suit
of black and wore a black hat trim
med with black chiffon; also a black
veil was drawn up over her hat. A
black and white ribbon led to her
watch in the pocket of her white silk
ws.ist. Two brilliant diamonds shone
on the engagement finger of her left
hand.
Frank occupied a seat between his
wife and mother. He conversed with
them alternately, at no time appear
ing nervous or the least apprehen
sive. His attitude was noticeably
even more calm than at the time
when he appeared before the Cor
oner’s jury.
Frank Aids Attorney*.
Frank spoke frequently to his at
torneys, whom he was near, and made
suggestions while the jurors were be
ing qualified. When each new panel
was brought in he looked intently in
to the face of each man. beginning
at the upper row and shifting his
gaze from man to man until he had
scrutinized them all.
Not infrequently, w'hen the Solici
tor had closed his examination and
had said, “Juror, look on prisoner;
prisoner, look on juror,’’ Frank would
turn to Attorney Arnold and an In
stant later the announcement would
be made, “Storuck by the defense.”
Frank evidently was playing a large
part In the striking of jurors by the
defense.
The dagger-like gaze of Mrs. Frank
seldom was removed from the So
licitor’s face. Frequently she em-
» braced all those at Dorsey’s table In
her scornful glance.
Wife Caresses Prisoner.
Chief of Detectives Newport A
Lanford, whose department unearthed
much of the evidence, happened to be
pitting at her right. She turned to
him while he was glancing over pa
pers as if she were about to speak
her mind to him, but thought better
of it.
v Once in a while she took her eyes
from the Solicitor’s table to lay her
hand affectionately upon her hus
band’s phoulder and draw him toward
her to whisper in his ear. Once when
she discovered the reporters eyeing
her, she smiled mischievously and im
mediately whispered the .information
to Frank.
Frank’s mother sat quietly through
the routine of examining the venire
men. She spoke to her son frequent
ly, directing her glance at the pros
pective jurors as though commenting
on their fitness.
SAYS JAIL CAUSES RHEUMATISM.
COLUMBUS.—Claiming that he is
suffering from rheumatism and that
confinement in jail is making it worse,
\V. L. Taylor, of Taylor County, charged
with embezzling $7.66 from the Govern
ment, is seeking to have his bond of
400 reduced to an amount he can fur
nish.
There seems to be little, if anv,
doubt that the Legislature is to hurry
along the general tax act, just as It
has hurried along the general appro
priations bill.
.There are, counting to-day, exact
ly fourteen working days left to tn°
Legislature’s credit. This doe* not
include two Saturdays and two Suu-
days, however.
It, therefore, may De seen that th?
Legislature can, If it will, place both
the appropriations bill and the tax
acts—the general tax act, at least—
in the hands of the Executive ten
days ahead of adjournment, as he has
requested.
if this is done—and it likely will
be done—the present Legislature will
have accomplished a record of speed
nev er before equaled in the history of
the State.
Despite all the complaining and
criticism to the contrary*, the present
Legislature has been the most prompt,
within the memory of any Georgian,
in the matter of passing the two
vitally big and necessarj measure* of
the session—the general appropria
tions bill and the general tax act.
Credit must be awarded the com
mittee heads, the committees and the
Speaker for this remarkable achieve
ment, and President Anderson has
given his assurance that the prompt
ness of the House shall be duplicated
in the Senate this week and next.
Taken altogether, the record of the
Legislature as made up for this ses
sion is all right and a credit.
It is, indeed, far better than usual.
Mr. Shuptrine, of Chatham is very
much opposed to the measure permit
ting the addition of a kindergarten
system to the public schools of the
State.
Mr. Shuptrine doe* not believe the
Constitution of the State contem
plates anything of the kind. and.
moreover, he thinks it would be bfit
the first step in the direction of grea*-
ly expanding the school fund, already
smaller than the necessities of the
State seem to warrant.
“If we permit this innovation, not
warranted in the fundamental law at
all. we shall have application made
within the life of the preaent Legis
lature, perhaps, for more funds *o
meet the kindergarten requirements,”
said Mr. Shuptrin to-day.
"I know that it is proposed to add
this feature to the school system
without additional appropriations to
cover it, but that is merely a sop to
pet the bill on the statute books. Once
we Inaugurate this sy#terfi, we shall
have to take care of it. and it will be
argued that funds as now appropr*-
ated are not sufficient to handle '.he
new department.
“Georgia already is dealing most
generously with her schools—she is
straining the limit to take care of
them—and I am not complaining so
much about that. But I do think it
would be a sad mistake to add any
further burdens to her budget—and
certainly along the line of providing
public education to tots from 4 to 6
years of age."
Senator M. C. Tarver has aban
doned foi* the present his effort to
get the Representatives and Senators
of the various counties affected, in
terested in the proposed Chickamau-
pa Judicia 1 circuit.”
“The bill could rot bg passed at this
session.” said Mr. Tarver, “for sev
eral of the Representatives of the
counties proposed for the new cir
cuit are opposed to any change of the
present arrangement. Others, w'hile
desiring a change, couldn’t get to
gether on an arrangement of counties
that was mutually satisfactory.”
Mr. Searcey’s bill to make the
buyer and the seller equally' guilty in
“blind tiger' 1 cases, was killed in the
Senate, upon the theory that it af
fords the “blind tiger” exactly the
protection he desires, rather than re
tards him in the operation of his
business.
"The one thing a ‘blind tiger
dreads above all other things,” said
a Senator, discussing the bill, “is
that among his numerous customers
may be one who will tell.
“This bill removes that dread, for
anybody who reported a ‘tiger’ under
this measure would become a crimi
nal himself. Besides, because of the
law which excuses a man from in
criminating himself in testifying, this
man would become immediately in
competent as a witness.
“It is hard enough now* to convict
‘blind tigers' and it w’ould be a thou
sand times harder under this law.
“Prohibitionists w'ho seek to go the
limits this bill proposes are to be
commended for their zeal, perhaps,
but surely not for their common
sense. This bill is sound enough In
theory, if you view it from a certain
angle, but It falls to pieces as a prac
tical measure and would defeat the
very object Its author had In mind
when he framed it.”
The Senate ^feated the measure
bv a vote of 18 To 22, which was not
such a w'ide margin of defeat, after
all.
MAULS MAN FOR
TALKING 10 WIFE
W. M. Sexton. No. 18 Gaskill street,
Monday morning remarked to Re
corder Broyles that he had “cautioned
this guy about talking to his wife,” in
explaining why* he attacked W. L.
Patterson, of No. 57 Powell street,
Sunday' night .at the close of services
in St. Luke’s Methodist Church ; n
Powell street.
Patterson told the court that Sexton
is "insanely jealous.”
Sexton, who is separated from his
wife, attacked Patterson a short dis
tance from the church after he had
seen him talking to Mrs. Sexton in
side of the church. Patterson said
Mrs. Sexton called to him after the
congregation had been dismissed, and
that he meant no harm by conversing
with her. He said Sexton lay in wait
for him in a dark spot in Powell
street ami assailed him with metal
knticks. Sexton denied this.
The two men were pummeling one
another vigorously when interrupted
by Detective Coker and Policeman
Boggus. who were on their way home
from the church service. Met«l
knucks were found on the groun 1.
Patterson displayed an abrasion m
his head, which he said was made by
the knucks.
When Sexton told Judge Broyles he
had warned his wife not to talk to
other men, the Recorder Informed him
that as he was separated from his
wife he had no rieht to beat up every
person he saw talking to her.’’
The Jealous husband was fined
$25.75 and the case of Patterson was
dismissed.

forth that President Soule has ren
dered valuable service which should

That a b'tter content will take place
w'hen it is pr' sented for adoption was
Indicated Monday by' Senator Mc
Gregor. who declared he would fight
the measure to the last ditch, on the
grounds that It is a “complete ‘white
wash 1 without any sort of investiga
tion.”
The most important new bill intro
duced In the Senate Monday was that
by Senator McGregor, limiting the
pow’er of the Governor in calling out

the so-called police jurisdiction, and

troops.

try to the Huerta administration.
”1 Informed the Secretary of State.’
said Representative Smith, "that b*>
long as we do not recognize the Huer
ta Government we should not favor
it by allowing it to secure arms from
this country. We deny that they havt
a constitutional government and yet
they are allowed to get arms and am
munition. We ought to allow both
factions to have war supplies or we
ought to give the privilege to neither
of them.”
Smith says Bryan did not indicate
what-action would be taken regarding
his complaints.
Smith received telegrams to-day

ment that nothing has happened

matters better or worse.
The President further said that, as

r A Vastly Different Kind N
of Furniture Sale
—Stores that hold Furniture Sales every thirty or
sixty days must do one of two things:
1st—Stock inferior furniture for sale purposes, or,
2nd—Purposely mark up first prices in order to
mark them down later for a sale.
—-Rich’s holds only two furniture sales a year—in
February and in August. The furniture offered is
from regular stock; the prices are reduced from our
regular prices—already as low and as fair as you will
find anywhere.
Now you know why Rich’s August Furniture Sale
is worth waiting for. Sale starts Friday.
