'JTIfi ATLANTA UlMJfmiAIN AMI) NFiU’S. Superintendent Slaton Praises Campaign for Schoolbooks Fund Superintendent of Schools Slaton Wednesday highly praised the move to raise a fund to provide poor children with schoolbooks and clothing. “ 1 here are many poor children in Atlanta who can not get the benefit of an education. The only way to place helpless children in the public schools is for the public to subscribe to a fund which will clothe and feed and shelter them and buy their books,’’ he said “If these children who can not go to school are permitted to frequent the slums and the pitfalls of city life, society must foot the bill by maintaining courthouses and officers and jails. “The effort of The Georgian and The Sunday American to secure money for the poor to get an education is direct protection to every life and every dollar’s worth of property in the State. “I heartily commend the enterprise of The Georgian and Sunday American in this noble work, and earnestly urge everyone to help the good cause.” POSTPONED COLUMBUS, Sept. 3.—The hearing of Bailiff Robert W. Willis, for kill ing Luther Hawkins, a Hapeville youth, whom he was attempting to arrest Friday afternoon on a war rant sworn out by Charles Jordan, a boardinghouse keeper, charging him with beating a 50-cent board bill, was continued late yesterday aft ernoon until September 19, at the request of the attorneys for the de fense. T. Hicks Fort, for the defense, asked the continuance on the grounds that Jordan, principal witness for the defense, was absent; that be cause of the seriousness of the charge against the prisoner, the attorneys had not had time to prepare for the trial; and that public feeling was strong against him. Continuance Opposed. Solicitor General George C. Palm er, representing the State, opposed a continuance on the ground that he would contend the case was one of murder and not bailable; that the father of the slain young man was present, and being a man of moderate means, it worked a hardship on him to attend the trial, and that he, the Solicitor, would be compelled to go to other counties to attend court la ter. Judge Frank D. Foley, City Re corder, who presided, after hearing the statements on both sides, decided to continue the case. The court room was crowded with eager spec tators, who gathered to see what dis position would be made of the case, which h is attracted Statewide at tention. because of the smallness of the offense for which the man was killed, accidentally, the defense claims. Willis HI at Ease. Willis appeared in the courtroom ill at ease. Hr continually worked his hands, showing every look of a map in a very nervous state and kept his eyes glued to the floor, paying but little attention to those about him. His face was covered with a shaggy growth of beard, and he seemed to have aged considerably since he was incarcerated Friday night. The killing of Young Hawkins, whether accidental or not. Is still strongly condemned, it being the gen eral opinion that Willis, as an of ficer, had no authority for even try ing to frighten a prisoner wanted for a misdemeanor offense, by drawing a revolver.

A Real Opportunity Now and then comes a real opportunity for doing good—an opportunity so big and so broad that even the worst of us re gard it a privilege to join in and help. Just such an opportunity is offered Atlantans by the plea from the Associated Charities for a fund to buy schoolbooks for 250 little children of the poor. Could there be a stronger appeal than is furnished by these bright-eyed, ambitious young Anglo-Saxons whose thirst for an education even extreme poverty threatens to destroy? Could you invest one dollar, five dollars or ten dollars or even a few cents better than in a contribution to this fund? Not if you had waited for years. The Georgian has headed the list with a check for $50. It will be only a day or two before the sum needed is raised. Join quickly with your contribution before you lose your best chance of the year to show that you are a good citizen and one worth having in such a city as Atlanta. Actress Chooses Her Gowns to Suit Her Various Modes MITTAL IF Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. COMO, ITALY, Sept. 3.—Judge Charlton, father of Porter Charlton, the young American wife slayer, said to-day he believed his son would be acquitted. Judge Charlton held an other conference with Signor Mellini and afterward said that from an Italian viewpoint, young Charlton’s case appears optimistic. “I believe my son will be able to eat his Christmas dinner on United States soil,” said Judge Charlton. In his cell in the jail, Porter Charl ton busied himself writing poetry, making entries in his diary and read ing illustrated magazines. He called j for a Bible when first placed in his j cell, but has since made little use | of it. ■> Camorrist Defense Studied. Lawyers employed by the defense I are making a close study of the pro- | cedure of the famous Camorrist trials ! at Viterbo. In those cases prisoners | were acquitted even in instances i where full proof of guilt was placed before the court. Provocation and attacks upon the authenticity of tes timony played important parts. The prosecution’s case against Charlton rests practically upon the confession and testimony of the de fendant. No one saw Charlton beat his wife’s brains out with a hammer and a statue of “Love” and hurl her body into Lake Como. The evidence upon which he was arrested was cir cumstantial. Father Comforts Son. There are reports that the lawyers for the defense may question the right of a court or jury to adjudge a man in Italy upon a confession made in another country. Judge Charlton’s presence is cheer ing up his son wonderfully. “Be brave and straightforward and everything will come out all right,” is the advice given by the parent to his erring son Prominent Carolina Business Man Dead WILMINGTON, Sept. 3.—James H Chadbourn, for years a leading busi ness man of Wilmington, builder of the Chadbourn and Conway branch of the Atlantic Coast Line and pres ident of the North Carolina Water ways Association, in which he did great work for improvements of North Carolina waterways, is dead at Asheville, where he had gone for his health.

AUGUSTINE, Sept. 3.—Fire of incendiary origin destroyed the launch belonging to Will Martin, en tailing a loss of several thousand dollars. cabinet, issued a statement to the press explaining how reports got abroad yesterday that he had re signed. He had been asked about the rumor, he said, and in the hurry of the moment gave information to the correspondents which they had garbled. General Blauquet, Minister of War. also denied reports that he had re signed. In this connection many be lieve that in a short time General Geronimo Trevino will succeed Gen eral Blanquet. Many persons believe that in the interests of tranquillity. Dr. Urrutia will be forced from the cabinet. He has been the author of many utterances that have embar rassed the Government. Many Americans who left here for the United States in response to the advice of President Wilson and Sec retary of State Bryan, returned here to-day from Vera Cruz, bitterly com plaining of hardships they were com pelled to undergo. Most of the wo men and a large number of the men refused to accept second-class ac commodations provided by the con sular office and declare that they could not stand the intense and humid heat at Vera Cruz while wait ing for a ship. Hotels and boarding houses at Vera Cruz are crowded, prices are high and the food is poor. Americans here have wired to Washington for definite reasons why they should get out of Mexico City, but the telegrams were not answered.

This thing of why women wear the things they do, which has been dis cussed and otherwise for several cen turies, had some new light shed on it Wednesday morning, when Mrs. Den McGrath*—Miss Bertha Yeoman professionally—arrived in Atlanta with her husband to open the season at the Atlanta Theater to-night in tile musical gambol, “Mary’s Lamb.” Mrs. McGrath did not denounce the slit skirt, the X-ray or other favorite sermon topics; neither did she in dorse them. They do not concern her, she says, “because if they are the fashion, a woman must wear them. She must keep up with the fashions whether she wants to or not.” “Color is but the emblem of thought,” Mrs. McGrath said. “If a woman is downcast and un happy she will probably wear green, which to me means sorrow. Red al ways signifies coquettry, and a wo man who wears that color is very apt to be in a flirtatious and vivacious mood. Blue is the emblem of purity and innocence, even more so than white, I think. White always makes me think of something soft and beau tiful and lovable. Purple I always associate with a mind of great bril liance, and nine women out of ten who wear purple you will find are women of unusual intellect and tal ent. But yellow and brown are the most beautiful of colors. Whenever I am particularly happy I always wear either yellow or brown, though 1 think yellow expresses greater happiness than brown. “Though the average woman prob ably does not know’ It, the color of her dress determines her mood. As the mood changes, so does the color of the dress. “Take my own ease, for instance. I have to be in different moods in different acts of ‘Mary’s Lamb’ and I can not attain the desired r.tate of mind unless I wear gowns of a certain color. “In the first act I must be a dash ing adventuress, gay and vivacious, and 1 wear a gown of a reddish- violet color, because that color har monizes with the necessary mood; the color makes me feel exactly right* for the part. "In the second act I am supposed to meet my old sweetheart and am very happy. Hence I wear a brown or a yellow' gown. Brown and yel low are mv favorite colors, and the mere wearing of them makes me hap py • “In the third act I become intent on obtaining revenge and if I didn t wear something with a dash of red in it I could never approach the proper state of mind. If 1 wore a dress .»f another color the act would be ruined, because 1 could iot put my heart in m v w’ork. In this act I wear a cerlsa and black gown, with a slit skirt—a very slit skirt.” If EISEMAN BROS., Inc INCORPORATED 19 12 Boys’ School Clothes Boys’ Store Entire 2d Floor Boys’ Norfolks The New Fall Models Splendid collection of Boys’ Nor folk Suits (one pair of pants) made of high-class, beautifully finished fabrics in a charming variety of colors, mixtures and novelty ef fects—in ages 6 to 18 years— $5 to $ 15 BOYS’ NORFOLKS WITH TWO PAIRS PANTS Grand new line of Boys’ Norfolk Suits in the very best fabrics, favorite colors and pleasing patterns.
