Hightower a Favor by Wedding
His Mother-in-law.
Alleging that her husband had ob
tained money from a local depart
ment store in settlement of a suit
over an accident that left her par
alysed, and used it to marry again
and take the second woman on a
honeymoon trip through the Wee*.
Mrs. E. L. Osborne No. 1 appeared
In Police Court Tuesday morning
against E, L. Osborne, of No. 216
Central avenue, whom she charges
with bigamy.
According to the first Mrs. Osborne,
she was injured in an elevator acci
dent about two years ago and has
sinoe been paralyzed. A few months
ago her husband settled the sruit for
several hundred dollars. He used
some of the money to send her on a
visit to relatives at Columbus, Ga.
Soon after she left, she save. he mar
ried Mrs. M. E. Kid well, of No. 107
Avon avenue, and took her on a long
trip through the West.
The first Mrs. Osborne returned to
Atlanta Monday, and learning that
her husband had married again dur
ing her absence, had him arrested.
Osborne was bound over until
Wednesday under $2,000 'bond. The
•eoond Mrs. Osborne remarked as she
was leaving the courtroom that she
would not appear in court again. She
was placed under $100 bond.
Soon after the case was tried a man
giving his name as Hightower called
the police station and asked what had
been done with Osborne On being
told that he was bound over under
$2,000 bond, he said:
“I guess that will hold him for a
while. That man married my moth
er-in-law. and I thought he had done
something for me, but it looks now
like he hasn’t.”

CHARLES LYNCH. I
Scores of Pupils, Failing to Start
Monday, Register Now, Add
ing to Congestion.
The first flurry of school’s reopen
ing over, Atlanta’s thousands of
school children settled down to hard
work Tuesday. Practically ail of the
teachers in the city began the regu
lar routine, textbooks having been
designated and lessons assigned the
day before.
By Wednesday the classes in all ot
the buildings are expected to be run
ning as smoothly as in the middle
of the school year. All preparations
were made to enter into the work
with as little delay as possible.
Every scholar was furnished with a
list of the books he or she would re
quire and was Instructed to pur
chase them at the earliest possible
moment. It was announced that the
pupils would be held as strictly ac
countable for failures in recitations
Tuesday as they will be later in the
year.
Scores of new students. w l ho fail
ed for one reason or another to ap
pear Monday, applied for tickets of
admission from Superintendent Sla
ton Tuesday forenoon. The increase
in the number of pupils in the
schools of the city has resulted in
considerable congestion in several of
the buildings. No effort will be made
to solve the problem for the first
three days of school, as It might in
many cases be necessary o do the
work all over owing to later addi
tions.
A meeting of the principals will be
called Wednesday afternoon, how
ever. and the matter will be taken
up. Some of the children in the
crowded buildings will be trans
ferred to nearby districts where there
is no congestion. Superintendent
Slaton probably will make a recom
mendation for addiHonal new schools
in his next annual report to the
Board of Education.
Among the schools which were
badly crowded on the first day were
the Peeples’ Pryor, Georgia Avenue.
Inman Park, Edgewood and Highland
Avenue. The large attendance of the
first two days indicated that the to
tal enrollment for the year easily
will reach the 26,000 mark.

S’crUly Sraiii (ILaihm
A stylishly dressed young man, who
rate his name as Dr. M. L. Harrison
when arrested by Atlanta detectives
in the lobby of & !ocal hotel, was sent
back to Columbus. Ga., Tuesday,
where there are some highly enraged
Individuals who claim they cashed bo
gus checks for him before he left there
Saturday.
The young man. according to the
stories from Columbus, came there a
few days ago and made an immediate
impression by his modish clothes and
polished manners He came presum
ably to see a well-known young so
ciety woman of the city and througn
her he met a number of the prominent
people of the city, among them sev
eral physicians.
Being of a prepossessing appear
ance, he easily made friends, and as
the acquaintance between himself and
his newly formed friends ripened, he
became confidential with them and
informed them that he was going to
wed the young lady whom he was
visiting. Friday the young woman
came to Atlanta to visit friends.
“Doctor” Harrison thereupon in- i
formed some of his new-found
friends, it is said, that he carelessly
had allowed himself to run short on
funds and asked them if they would
not cash some small checks for him.
Being of an accommodating nature,
four of his newly-made friends were
eager to oblige him and indorsed the
checks, which were on the Bank of
Tampa and the First National Bank
of St. Petersburg. It was then that
Dr. Harrison informed his friends
that he was going to Atlanta to see
the object of his affections, and on
Saturday afternoon he came to At
lanta.
The checks, which amounted »o
$126, began to come back Monday
with the announcement, “No funds.
Such a man not known.” Those who
had been duped proceeded to get
busy and had warrants issued. The
Atlanta police were notified and late
Monday afternoon Dr. Harrison was
arrested.
