TfTTC ATLANTA GEORGIAN ANT) NEWS. 3 Marsha Warrington, Not Young Woman With Whom Defendant Fled, State's Chief Witness. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 29 —Gov- ernment attorneys In the white slave trial of F. Drew Caminettl to-day admitted that they were depending upon the testimony of Marsha War rington as3 their strongest evidence against Caminettl, although the name of Lola Norris was linked with that of the defendant in the elopment to Reno. Miss Warrington’s testimony was effective in bringing about the conviction of Maury L. Diggs on the .same charge. When the trial was resumed to-day the court attaches had the daily bat tle with the crowd of curious men and women. The story repeated by Marsha Warrington on the stand yes terday, which was to be concluded to-day, was the attraction. Federal Judge VanFleet asked the court officers to inform every young girl in the corridor that testimony was being given that was unfit for them to hear. This did not deter them, and all w’ho ^ould get in the van of the crowd sought seats in the courtroom, determined to hold them throughout the day. Wife and Girl Meet. For the first time since the story of her husband’s infidelity became public property, Mrs. Maury I. Diggs heard it yesterday from the lips of Marsha Warrington, “the other wo man.” Marsha told the same story she did in the Diggs trial. Mrs. Diggs sat just Inside the rail that divides the audience from the bar of the court. She listened in tently, rigidly wincing at certain parts of the testimony. Concluding her testimony for the day Marsha Warrington walked to a seat at the table of counsel for the Government. Facing her, as she drew near, stood Mrs. Diggs at the table of counsel for the defense, staring her steadfastly in the face, with only the width of the aisle be tween the two tables separating them. The girl turned her head and looked away. Caminetti’s Wife Absent, Midway between the two tables stood Diggs, who, after adjournment, joined his wife. He looked noncha lantly, first at one woman and then at th(;. other, talking the meanwhile with Caminettl. The girl’s story to-day was a somewhat curtailed repetition of her testimony in the Diggs trial and car ried her through the earlier stages of her experience with Diggs to the point where Diggs said scandal had surrounded them and began to urge the necessity of flight. Her exam ination will be resumed to-morrow. Whatever the testimony of Lola Norris may be, Caminettl has an nounced that he will not dispute it. The prosecution has stated that it will attempt to prove that Miss Nor ris was pure until she met Caminettl and that it was in Reno that she yielded, after promise of marriage was made to her. Thus far the wife, children and mother of Caminettl have not ap peared in the courtroom. Humorists Appalled By Mexican Names PEORIA, ILL., Aug. 29.—Resolu tions demanding an investigation of the spelling of Mexican names* and recommending a change in case of war were adopted at the business session of the American Press Hu morists here.

N.. Aug. 2if.—Prcsi-* dent Emeritus Eliot, of Harvard Col lege, addressing the delegates tof th? fourth International Congress on School Hygiene, of which he is the founder, in session here tod-day, said: “The progressive civilization of the last hundred years has worked ter ribly against the health and perpe tuity of the whole race. This is seen in the reduced vitality of the multi tudes that inhabit closely-built cities in the diminishing size of families, in the incapacity of many worsen to among the Navajos in Arizona, that disproportionate increase in the num ber of the insane, defective and crim inally Inclined.’ Would Quit Wife for Row With His'Hands’ Charging that his wife, Mary Bar ton, aged 50, “has the most ungovern able temper that can be imagined,” and that she has raised a row with his “farm hands!” J.

Buchner, of Indiana, to be Minister to Liberia. The fox—the common red fox—lias reached the acme of fame and re nown; he has been immortalized by having a dance named for him. and sits happily and serenely alongside the turkey, the rabbit and the bear. The latest is the F'ox Fandango. It is the outcome of a tour of ex ploration by some of the younger so ciety set. who, in their everlasting search for something new r . wound up one day at Grant Park. Struck with the beauty and grace of the red fox as he dragged his frightened little body into his hole, one of the visitors suggested that, in asmuch as the movements of the tur key. the rabbit and all the other ani mals had been utilized by the danc ing master, it would be a novelty to introduce something based on the graceful movements of the fox. So last Friday night at a Tech dance at the Crystal Palace, the Fox Fandango was originated. It is a graceful dance, without having the taint of suggestiveness that has marred the trots, the hugs and the tangos, and it promises to become all the rage in Atlanta social circles. The dance Is a combination of the Virginia reel, the Spanish fandango and the tango. This is about how you do it: First you bow gracefully—if you can—as in the Virginia reel; then you take the walking steps of the tango and waltz them slowly, very slowly; then you tear the fast-going right out of the heart of the Spanish dances and waltz rapidly, although it is not necessary that you place the tip of the fingers on the he^d, or hang on to your belt with the other hand. You are allowed the liberty of interpolating any elaborations you may desire. Miss Caroline Briggs, a Tech favor ite. and Perry Burrus, a sophisticated sophomore, were amofig the crowd who originated the new dance, and their interpretatKm of the Fox Fan dango was one of the best shown at the Crystal Palace. bail. lawyers for Thaw tried to get the hearing adjourned until next Wednesday. • The bail is exactly the amount »f the tine that would be imposed oi\ Thompson if he had been found guilty, and it is admitted by lawyers that the depositing of this sum virtually ends Thompson's case. It is believed that Thompson will get out of Can ada and forfeit his bail. When the case was called, the crown attorneys announced they were ready to try Thompson on the charge of “entering the country by stealth.” Thaw’s lawyers, who also represent Thompson, said that they expected the hearing to be on the charge that Thompson had “aided an insane man to enter Canada.” Assistant Superintendent of Immir gration Blake Robertson seated that the crown was not ready to take up this charge until next Monday. Thaw has wone another victory in ■his fight against going back to the Matteawan, although the result in this case may prove only temporary. Ex-District Attorney Jerome, who is here in the capacity of a deputy at torney general of the State of New York, returned to-day from Quebec after having failed to see Sir Lomar Gouin, Governor for this province. Jerome had planned to petition Sir Lomar to quash all proceedings the courts here have instituted so that the representatives of the Canadian Department of Immigration might act at once. Thaw to Shift Fight To Pittsburg Soon. . PITTSBURG, PA.. Aug. 29.—Harry Thaw’s fight for freedom will be shifted to Pittsburg soon. Plans for a battle in the courts are being laid. Thaw will petition for $10,000 from the* fund held In trust for him by the Fidelity Title and Trust Company, which amounts to $30,000. If the courts recognize Thaw's plea for funds with which to .fight his battle against the State of New York and his sanity is thereby established by such act of the court, the Canadian authorities will be placed in a pe culiar position inasmuch as Thaw will be held Insane by New York and sane by his resident State of Penn sylvania. Two Girls He Accosted and Police Crush His Single-Handed War on Americans. Because he became imbued with the idea that one Mexican is the equal of a great many American policemen, C. E. Ellison. No. 153 Walton street, who says he Is a Mexican employed by the Atlanta Gas Company, occu pied a cell at police headquarters Fri day, nursing several largo and painful bumps on the h£ad, inflicted by offi cer Thompson and Officer Lynan dur ing the process of relieving his mind of his hallucination. Ellison had a day off Thursday, and in the absence of anything else to do he drank copiously of mescal and de voured the newspaper stories of the Mexican trouble. The more he drank and the more he read the more Indig nant he became that President Wil son should tell President Huerta where to “head in.” Indignation filled his soul. He thirsted for the gore of an American, and forthwith started out to find a fresh, untainted Ameri can on whom he might wreak ven geance. Girls Kick His Shins. By some strange freak of chance Ellison wound up In the Syrian quar ter on Marietta street, in Brooklyn, and informed tw r o passing Syrian girls that Mexican courage and Mexi can mescal make a winning combi nation. The Syrian girls didn’t be lieve it. One of them kicked Ellison in the shins, and the other slapped his face. Ellison began to explain volubly that he had no fuss with Syria, but before he got through Officer Lynan, a large and imposing figure of a man, came up. “Ha!” said Ellison. “An American! Curses on them!” Officer Lynan reached out a large hand and grasped Ellison firmly by the collar. “Come with me!” he st ited firmly. “Leggo!” shouted the brave Mexi can. “I’m a Mexican and I w'on’t stand for no interference from an American. I can whip any American that ever worse shoes. I’ll bite you if you don’t leggo!" He made ast if to chew the officer’s club. Lynan grinned and tapped him on the head. ElWson grunted, but subsided. Lynan called the wagon and the brave Mexican was loaded into it. fighting and protesting. Finally Admits Defeat. En route to the station house Elli son felt his courage rising up in l.im again, and he turned on Officer Thompson, who guards the prisoners until Judge Broyles gets hold of them. “You’re an American, too.” Ellison said. “I guess T can lick you. too.” Officer Thompson grinned and said nothing. Ellison made a pass at Thompson. The officer sighed, be cause it was a shame to do it, and tapped Ellison on the mad. The Mex ican subsided with a low, despairing gurgle, and as the waters closed over his head, he murmured: “Let Huerta fight ’em; I got enough.” The Mexican was arraigned before Councilman Charles W. Smith, Act ing Recorder at the morning session of Police court and fined $100.75 or 30 days. Unable to pay the fine, he went out in the big “redblrd wagon, pro testing that “Americano Justice is en tirely too swift.” RETURN FROM ABROAD. GREENSBORO—The Rev W. R. Mackay, pastor of the First Methodist Church, and Mrs. Mackay returned to-day from a trip to the former’s homeland, Ireland. They also visited England, Scotland and France and attended the World’s Sunday School Convention at Zurich, Switzerland, in July. Sold Cow in Advance, Spent Night Catching One; Now He Is in Jail After he had spent almost the en tire night running down and lassoing a cow in a pasture near the Federal prison, Ellis Gresham, a negro living at No. 15 Moneley street, was arrested Friday morning at 4 o’clock when he offered the animal for sale to Sam Mauldin, a butcher ut No. 580 Deca tur street. w Gresham asked Mauldin late Thurs day if he would buy a cow. Mauldin said he would, and Gresham said he would bring the animal Friday morn ing. Mauldin notified the police, and when Gresham, panting and almost exhausted from his hard work in catching the cow, appeared, he was arrested by Patrolman Hannah. Gresham says he doesn’t know whose cow it Is. but admitted he took the animal out of a pasture. "Lawdy, boss.” he said, “I done think I earned dat cow. Dat’s the liveliest cow I ever seed. I chased dat cow all over de pasture all night be fore I cotched her.” McDermott on Stand To Refute Mulhall Priceless Manet Art Found in Henhouse Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. PARIS, Aug. 29—Caesar’s ashes stopping a bunghole is a phrase forcibly recalled by the remarkable announcement just made that a price less painting by Manet has been founfl to have patched a hole in the roof of a henhouse in the back gar den of Ziem, the well-known painter, who died recently. As the picture must have been nailed to the shed before Manet be came famous, the inference is that it served to keep the rain off chick ens for something like 50 years.

Further litigation over the will of Leonard B. Folsom, for twenty years proprietor of Folsom’s restaurant and hotel in Marietta street, was begun Friday morning, when the heirs of Jacob V. Johnson, Folsom’s cashier, filed a petition in the Superior Court seeking to obtain $2,500 alleged to have been willed to Johnson. The complaint is made against Henry L. Folsom, of California, nephew and executor of the estate. The airing of the issue in the courts is the climax of a long and Interest ing story. Johnson, “the faithful and trusted cashier” in Folsom's employ, the petitioners assert was rewarded by his employer by the promise of a bequest of $2,500 upon the death of the latter, with the provision that he. Johnson, was still in the employ of Folsom. In the meantime Folsom went out of business, but Johnson continued to act as cashier at the Folsom restau rant. Soon after this Johnson died, and later Folsom died. The Johnson heirs now assert that th* disposition of Folsom’s business discharged the condition of the pay ment to Johnson, and as lawful heirs they claim the $2,500 share of the Folsom estate. The petition is signer, by a half dozen members of the John son family. STATE TO BETTER An effort will be made by the State Department of Agriculture to improve upon the methods of collecting data regarding the movement and produc tion of cotton in Georgia, and in this connection Assistant Commissioner of Agriculture Dan Hughes is working hard to arrive at some accurate sys tem of handling the proposition. “It is our intention to furnish a weekly report to the farmers through the prose regarding the production and movement of cotton,” said Mr. Hughes. “We will attempt to obtain the co-operation of the railroads and the co-operation of the dealers and handlers of cotton in the big inland markets. By comparison with the previous year's showing this would give us a good idea of exact condi tions. “We are in communication with Di rector of the Census W. J. Harris and expect to obtain much Information and assistance from him. We will receive regular reports from him as to the cotton ginned in Georgia, which we will transmit to the public in weekly reports to be published in the newspapers.” WASHINGTON, Aug. 29— Represen tative McDermott, of Illinois, who has been under fire continuously since the Lobby Committees of the House and Senate have been delving into the Mul hall charges, took the stand to-day be fore the House Lobby Inquiry Commit tee in his own defense.
