Prisoner and His Counsel Are Equally Confident They Will Be Able to Get a New Trial on Ground of Outside Influences. MARRIAGE TEST Girl Charges That Suitor Broke MrSt Winnifred Ha rper Cooley, Cheers for the Solicitor After Recesses and Applause in Court Will Be Principal Points Urged by Lawyers for Convicted Man. Despirate effort* to nave Leo Frank from the gallows, to which he was consigned by sentence of Judge Roan, are taking definite shape. The trump card of his lawyers will be affidavits or showings of some sort to the effect that certain members of the Jury which convicted Frank were deeply biased against him by more than on* Incident. Meanwhile, Solicitor Dor sey Is satisfied that the caae he made against Frank will stand. Argument for a new trial will be made before Judge Roan October 4, Just six days before the date set for Frank's execution. Then Frank’s lawyers, headed by Luther Rosser and Reuben Arnold, will exhaust every re source at their command to obtain a new trial or to stave off the death sentence. Apparently Leo Frank has an Im pregnable confidence In his advocates. Occasional bulletins from the Tower, where he la held, declare that ne fol lows the usual routine of his rather methodical life as closely since his sentence as before. His attention to n ■ iters of health Is scrupulous, [fi ling dalW exercises and cold baths a careful selection of food.

Business Associates Visitors. Almost every duy Fig Montag and Herbert Sohiff, his associates In the business of the National Pencil Fac tory. are his visitors, besides other friends. His wife and his fathtr In law come also, bearing his meals and hardly a minute of the day Is he alone Rut never a time during the day Is there any appearance of per turbation on the part of the prisoner. Neither have his lawyers exhibit'd any signs of dismay. It is generally believed that they are confident tin y can prove the existence of undue prejudice against their client, nnd an element of unfairness In his trial. This they will attempt to prove by a chain of Incidents, chief jiinong which will be cheering which attend ed the appearance of Solicitor Dor sey outside the courtroom on more than one occasln, nnd the npplau .s which burst out even In the court room when the trial was at Its most tense point. It may he that the fight of the de fense will he made along other lines as well, but none of them has beo.i revealed, nothing except the charge of undue Influence on the Jurymen. With the Interest that has grown about the figure of Frank, the negro Jim Conley almost has been forgot ten. However, he was recalled last week when It was announced an ef fort would be made to obtain his In dictment by the Grand Jury on the charge of being an accessory after the fact In the murder of Marv Pbag.m. In the light of Frank's conviction and the negr s own statement on the wit ness stand. It is believed this will oe effected without delay. Await Day of Argument. Altogether, for the first time since the murder of Mary Phagnn. the cas» has aasumed something of an un eventful tone There Is still the en thralling interest with which all At lantans have invested the case, and the lawyers involved are laying their plans without cat. Rut the Interest must wait and the speculation must be held up until the day for the argu ments before Judge Roan. It appeared at one time last week as If a lively Interest in the case would break out like fire, when Clara Bell Griffin. an emplo\ee of the Na tional Pencil Factory, as was Marv Pbagan, was mysteriously missing f >r the space of a Jay. Then it was that speculation was rife, and all sorts >f possibilities were suggested. Rut the rlrl was found at Grady Hospital, ind the s'’' r ^estlon of another Mary Phr.gan mystery, and a likely effect jn the Frank case, was driven away. ‘Eight Below Zero Sure 'Nuff Winter' Engagement on Ground That Brother Had Tuberculosis. CHICAGO. Sept. 6.—The first suit to test the law of eugenics has been brought by Mias Rose Markewsky, of No. 907 Myrtle street. She filed, through her attorney, Clarence A. Toolen, a bill for $25,000 against Charles F. Drucker, of No. 928 South Ashland avenue, charging that he broke their engagement on the ground that her older brother has tubercu losis. "This so-called chivalrous excuse of Mr. Drucker may be_eugenics, but I can not see it,” declared Miss Mar- kewsky. "The very Idea of his resorting to these tactics Is not only contemptible but ridiculous. Why did not he show a spark of manhood and ask to be released from his engagement with out trumping up such an absurd ex cuse. "If eugenics enters into the case at all, I feel confident that any Jury would make the breaking of the en gagement optional with me. I can play better golf and tennis than Mr. Drucker. In fact, I think any vio lent exercise test. He could not even stand the physical test for the police department. "Wait until my so-called invalid brother hears about this that’s all. Mr. Drucker can not trifle with my affections and expect to get away with impunity. This suit is not for revenge but to give Mr. Drucker an opportuni ty for serious meditation In future years.” Domestic Science Expert, Makes Experiment. , >Mr>m SV cviNtojwJig Society Girl's Tango Grace Charms Duke Electric Plant Sets A Day for Ironing Housewives Demand That Current be Turned on While Sun Shines for Washing Purposes.

The village of Degraff, Logan County, has a municipally owned electric light plan. The plant has been operated only at night because no power serv ice was sold. Recently an agent visited the vil lage and sold such a quantity of electric irons that petitioners in pet ticoats asked village officials to op erate the electric light plant in day light hours so that the Irons could be used. Tuesday thereupon was selected as Ironing day, and the electric light plant was operated Ta- slay mornings for the benefit of owners of electric Irons. Mrs. Winnifred Harper Cooley, na tional president of the Associated Clubs of Domestic Science, with headquarters In New York City, and recognized all over the country as an expert on food, agreed to undertake an experiment In living on 9 cents a day. For a week she lived well and at a total cost of 63 cent?, working regularly, both mentally and physi cally. and attending to her ordinary avocations s She was In fine feUIe at the end of the experiment, stronger in body and even better fitted for sustained mental effort. Furthermore, she lost ten pounds of superfluous flesh, thereby gaining greater ease and more free dom and grace of movement. She tells the results of her experiment: Foods Purchased. 1-3 (12-lb.) basket (9) potatoes (old) 05 1 mf*sfl spinach 05 1 loaf whole wheat bread 10 Cocoa (1-6 lb. can) 10 Raked Beans JO 1-2 package natural rice 06 1-6 lb. oleomargarine 05 3 bananas 05 1-3 lb. sugar 02 1 egg 03 1‘ apple 02 Total for food for 1 week (9c per day 63 Nutritious Food Cheap. "It has often distressed me to see working girls—and hard-working men, too—spending the 6mall f*ums which they allow themselves for lunch on impossible bakery products—soggy pies and sour puffs,” says Mrs. Cooley. "I know that some of the most nutri tious foods In the world are the cheapest. The cereals and whole grains, untampered with by foolish producers; the cheaper cuts of meat, so universally neglected, yet which make most appetizing stews; the sim ple vegetables and fruits, uncolored with coal tar dyes and unpreserved with artificial and chemical preserva tives—all of these go to build up u strong body and a clear brain, and yet are very cheap. ■••And f*o. without any theories or fads as to the desirability of eating this or that ‘health food,’ I decided to limit my menu to 10 cents a day fora week. “So successful and so provident did Two Meals a Day Costing Nine Cents MONDAY.

Banker Weds to Get Companion; Repents Los Angeles Financier Finds That Woman He Married Cherished Different Purpose. I become, In the zeal of the experi ment, that I found myself the last day with 7 cents to the good. A ter rible moral struggle then transpired! Why pamper myself by unnecessarily spending the 7 cents* all at once and gorge myself to repletion with an ex tra egg or two, or even several fat bananas, when I could get along quite comfortably the last day on the same type of diet which had stood me In good stead for six days? Of course, one loves to overeat: but do not Rockefeller and Carnegie and other omniscient multi-millionaires tell us that it is by saving the pennies that we may become plutocrats of the highest rank? Can Live on Even Less. "With visions of Hetty Green de lighting my mind’s eye, I therefore nobly withstood the somewhat natural desire to minister to my conventional appetite, and saved the 7 cents as a nucleus for my future vast fortune. "It will readily be seen, then, that the average was reduced from 10 cents a day to 9 cents. "It is. of course, possible to live on even less. One may exist on dried apples and cereals, and, naturally, if one buys in quantities and always raw material and cooks the edible* herself, there will be a saving ovei that spent when s»he purchases bakers bread, for instance. "On the other hand, for a very little more, one can have many ‘luxuries which I did not permit myself on 9 cents dally. Among these I might mention, breast of lamb (15 cents' worth, which makes a delicious stew that will last several meals), prunes, rhubarb, stewed dates and figs, plenty of egg* 3 , milk and buttermilk, apd the less expensive green vegetables. "But the Important thing is, that for the sum of 9 cents per day it is quite possible, not only to exist, but to live comfortably, work strenuously, bodily and mentally." WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.—When President Wilson a few days ago par doned a Texas banker who had been sent to the penitentiary for violation of the national banking laws, few persons knew that he did so at the request of his old bodyguard, “Silent Bill” McDonald, who came all the way from Dallas to lay the case before him. "Silent Bill’' is now United States Marshal for the Northern District of Texas, thanks to the President, and one of his first duties was to take the convicted banker to the peniten tiary to serve a five-year term. On the way the banker told his 6tory to “Bill," and so Impressed was the vet eran ranger that h« at once started an investigation on his own account. In the meantime friends of the banker had succeeded in. getting the sentence reduced from five years to a year and a day. But this did not satisfy "Bill.” He had found that all the man had told him was true, and he did not hesitate to say that no in nocent man was going to stay in the penitentiary if he could help it. His friends said he w r as foolish to proceed any further, as everything possible had been done. "No, it hasn’t,” said "Bill.” ‘Til pay my own fare to Washington and lay this case before the President rather than see an innocent man do time in the pententiary. I know the man is innocent, and I won’t rest until he is freed.” So "Bill” packed his suit case and started for Washington, armed with the papers in the case. On his arrival here he went at once to the Department of Justice, where he was told that nothing further could be done for the banker. "Well, w r e’ll see about that.” said “Bill.” ‘‘Bill” saw’ the President and the next day the banker was pardoned. LOS ANGELES. Sept. 6.—M. J.
