Six Girls Are Kissed

Prominent and Pretty Girls Receive
Salutes of Line of Men a

SALEM, OHIO, Sept. 16—All kiss
ing performances of record were
eclipsed here when a pretty girl
member of a prominent family, was
kissed 1,688 times—and not by one
man, either. At the name time five
other girls, equally pretty and promi
nent, received the same number of
kisses, on an average.
The girls disposed of ten thousand
kisses at $1 each to aid the endow
ment of Salem Hospital, which has
Just been completed. The osculatory
bombardment lasted two hours, and
at times there was a line of men,
young and old, a block long waiting
to fire salutes.
M1LLEN, Sept. 5.—As the time
draws near for the trial of Mrs. E^na
Perkins Godbee on the charge of kill
ing her divorced husband and his
young bride, her successor in his af
fections, there are indications a-
plenty that the story to be told will
be lifted out of the commonplace and
sordid setting of jealousy, out of the
flimsy plea of emotional insanity and
wil! become the human document ot
a woman wronged and neglected for
I ' u
I
I
more than twenty years.
Many people In Southeast Georgia
believe that the woman on trial for
her life will have a story to tell that
will quicken pulses and grip hearts
and excite sympathy, and the trial is
anticipated with a breathless eager
ness.
The Grand Jury of Jenkins County
will assemble Monday to consider the
case of Mrs. Edna Perkins Godbee. j
Who, less than a month ago, met her j
former husband in the Millen post- j
office, arm in arm with his laughing j
young bride, and who shot them to
death with hardly a word of warning
The trial of the case will proceed al
most immediately. It is expected, be
fore Judge Henry C. Hammond,
Awaiting trial, Mrs. Godbee remains
in a comfortably appointed cell in the
Jenkins County jail. She is a woman
of pleasant appearance, hardly look
ing the fact that Rhe is a grandmother
and the mother of a daughter who is
known widely for her beauty. Mrs.
Godbee is undisturbed, it seems, almost
cheerful, and ready to talk on any
subject except that of herself and her
jase.
Hard to Find Jurors.
Considerable difficulty, it Is expect
ed, will be attached to the selection
Of’ a jury. Either Mrs. Godbee or
her slain husband is kin to every
third man. woman or child in Jenkins
County, and everybody knows, to the
degree of intimacy, the families of
both. Jury selection, then, will be
difficult, certainly, for it is expected
that the veniremen who are not re
lated by blood or marriage to one or
the other may have fixed opinions
which will eliminate them. As it is,
the case is on the lips of every one,
common subject for speculation in ev-
ery household.
Common speculation also hinges
about Mrs. Godbee’s probable motive
in killing Judge Godbee and his wife
Although it has been stated she will
plead emotional insanity, there are
few who believe her defense will be
based altogether on that plea. Those
who know her declare that her actions
of a lifetime contradict the argument
of lack of balance. Her self-posses
sion before the crime and since the
crime has been remarkable, it is said.
The fact that she had the revolver
In her handbag the morning of tile
tragedy leads to the certain conclusion
that the killing was premeditated. No
other motive would have influenced
her to go about armed, it is generally
considered.
Fascinated by Shooting.
But the motive that prompted her.
to Are a shot into the brain of the
youthful bride is shrouded with mys
tery Mrs. Godbee the first had no
grudge against Mrs. Godbee the sec
ond except the natural grievance that
comes with jealousy. It is considered
that in the excitement of the moment,
after she had begun to work the
trigger rapidly, fascinated by the
sound of shots and the thrill of shoot
ing. she almost involuntarily turned
the revolver on the woman
The most common anticipation con
cerning the defense Is that Mrs. God
bee will charge her former husband
with brutal treatment and neglect,
beginning even in the years of their
early married life, 25 years ago.
For many years she stood the ill-
treatment. it is expected she will tell
the jury, for the sake of her children,
until there came a day when she
could bear it no longer The God-
bees separated several times, hut were
reunited, much against the advice of
the .woman's friends. Finally came
the separation that divorce made per
manent.
Mrs. Godbee has claimed, time and
again, that her husband had usurped
the fortune inherited by her from
her father, and that on the wealth
thus taken from her, he lived In af-

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.—Vice
President Marshall's personal phil

to religion, was expounded to a huge
audience at Great Falls. Va., to-day,
where he played the rolo of "preach
er” to a camp meeting. Here follow
some of the comments of Mr. Mar
shall:
“You wonder why are the tango,
turkey trot and slit skirt; and I say
it is because the mothers of the coun
try are not interested In training
their children.
If I were a higher critic there is
only one commandment I should
change, and for the sake of justice
I would reverse that to read, ‘The
sins of the children shall be visited

Fourth of July’s
Death Total Only 32
Figures of American Medical Asso

crease In Number of Casualties.
CHICAGO, Sept. 6.—Thirty-two
persons died in Fourth of July cele
brations this year, fewer than in any
year since statisticians began record
ing the death toll of fireworks.
Figures gathered by the Journal of
the American Medical Association
compared this total to that of 466 in
1908, the first year the association
counted the victims.
Of this year's victims, thirteen,
most ot them little girls, were burned
to death when their clothing cdught
fire. Two of these accidents were
caused by supposedly harmless
“snapper” matches. The non-f&tal
injuries this year were 1,811, as
against 3.988 In 1908.

COATICOOK, QUEBEC. Sept. 6 —
One year’s time may elapse before it
Is legally determined whether Harry
K. Thaw', the fugitive from the Mat-
tea wan (N. Y.) Asylum for the Crim
inal Insane. is to be deported from
Canada or is to receive the protec
tion of its laws. Assurance to this
effect was given to Thaw to-day by
his counsel.
Thaw is certain that he has won a
long delay and Immediately after I
breakfast began packing for the jour- !
ney to Montreal, w'here he must be
produced in the Supreme Court on
September 15. when arguments will
be delivered on the writ of habeas
corpus secured by J. N. Greenshields
and N. K. LaFlamme from Justices
Cross and Gervais in the Court of
Appeals.
Minister of Justice Doherty, who is
also acting Minister of the Interior,
is reported to have said to-day at
Ottawa that any appeal from the de
cision of the Immigration Board in
Coaticook ordering the deportation of
Harry K. Thaw will not be acted on
until the proceedings instituted by
Thaw’s lawyers yesterday are dis
posed of.
It was reported that Thaw would
be taken to Montreal to-day- His
lawyers will immediately file applica
tion for Thaw’s liberation on bail.
Coup a Legal Masterpiece.
It had been supposed that Green-
shields and LaFlamme had withdrawn
from the case, seeing nothing but de
feat. but their retreat was only a
masterly piece of strategy by which
the door'- may have been opened for
a test of the constitutionality of the
immigration law governing deporta
tion.
Complications have been added to
the general aspect of the Thaw- case
by the events subsequent to the ar
rest of William Travers Jerome, ex-
Distriet Attorney of New York, on a
charge of gambling. Mr. Jerome was
to have been arraigned before Mag
istrate McKee at 9:30 this morning,
but Hector Verrett, acting for the
New York lawyer, had the hearing
postponed for a week.
Meantime Mr. Jerome left Canada,
going to Norton? Mills. Vt. In a
sense. Mr. Jerome thus made of him
self a fugitive from justice, reversing
the position of Thaw, who is a fugi
tive in Canada.
Influence has been brought to bear
upon Crown Prosecutor A. C. Hanson
to have the charge against Mr. Je
rome. who is at liberty on bond,
dropped.
The crown prosecutor refused to do
this.
Says Jerome Set Bad Example.
“I have received many complaints
about the open gambling of Mr. Je
rome and 1 consider It my duty to
push this case against him,” said the
prosecutor. “He was setting a bad
example. Evtny one could see him
and his companions playing.”
This is a nort of puritanical com
munity and gambling is looked upon
as a serious offense.
Hot Springs Starts

Fire-Swept Section
Conservative Estimate of Damage Is
Now $8,000,000, With $4,000,000

HOT SPRINGS, Sept. 6.—Conserv
ative estimates to-day place the loss
from the great Are which swept Hot
Springs lost night at $8,000,000, with
about $4,000,000 insurance. A inass
meeting was ueld to-day to consider
the advisability of appealing to the
State for military and financial aid.
and also to consider plans for re
habilitating the city.
The loss is twice as great as from
the disastrous blaze which swept
this city in 1905. The burned belt of
HO acres, embracing >0 blocks,

tion of the city straight through to
the mountains on the north side. It

The fire originated in a negro
shanty near the Iron Mountain sta
tion, burning that station and all rail

city.
Little Rock sent fire fighting equip- j
ment on a special train. Governor j
Hayes and Mayors of the principal

BOSTON, Sept 6.—Thai the Unite
States has not thoroughly digested the
lessons taught by wars of the past
and that its refusal to digest such
lessons is the cause of the present
state of unpreparedness for war is
the opinion of Brigadier General
Phillip A. Reade, T*. S. A., retired.
Seen al his apartment this veter
an of the Civil war, the Spanish-
American war and numerous cam
paigns against the Indians and Moros
said:
The test of an army is the charac
ter of its men. The good soldier
makes a good citizen, and the good
citizen can be trained to be a per- |
fed soldier. But soldiering is an art
—it can not be learned in a minute.
A man can not put on a uniform and
become a general. He must begin at
the bottom and work up.
“The citizen soldier, upon whom
under present, conditions we would
be forced to reply in case of war, is
not a trained soldier. I do not mean
that the militiamen, a* we call them
in this State, are. not brave men,
courageous men. But they are not
disciplined men. And in war bravery
without discipline avails nothing.
“It is true that in the Revolution
ary war a handful of citizen soldiers
achieved victory at Concord. But in
later engagements our untrained
troops did not show' to such good ad
vantage General Washington found
in several instances that the mili
tiamen ran away under fire.
“During the Civil war we had the
same experience with untrained
troops. They were willing enough to
fight, but they lacked what a soldier
should have--discipline. The aim of
the soldier should be to shoot and
hit the mark. He must be ready to
sacrifice himself in order to shoot and
hit the mark. If he shoots and misses
in order that he may run away, he
is of no use as a soldier. Indeed, he
is a great hindrance, for he is apt to
demoralize other untrained, undis
ciplined men
History Would Repeat.
“Our militia, in my opinion, lias im
proved greatly in the last ten years,
and it will doubtless go on improving.
But the militia belongs to the second
line --to the reserve. Should necessity
force us to place the citizen soldier,
willing, but unschooled, in the first
line, history would repeat itself. Be
wildered by the fire, unaccustomed to
obey a~s the trained soldier obeys, they
run.
“The best soldier is the good citi
zen—the man who loves his home.
That is one reason why I don’t be
lieve in having aliens in the United
Slates Army. As a recruiting officer
I got permission to accept no man
for service who could not read and

Short Enlistment Worthless.
“The short-term enlistment ha*
been tried out several times in tho

proven itself worthless. Men enlist

“It must be remembered the ulti
