E. Bartlett, of Winns- boro, Texas, Saturday. Professor Bartlett is one of the delegates to the Sacred Harp Musical Association which is holding its an nual convention in the Auditorium and is the conductor for most of the choruses. When he is in Texas he is an instructor in the peq^iliar four- note system of singing which is used by the Sacred Harp singers. “I used to think that this sort of singing was old-fogy and out of date,” said Professor Bartlett, “but when I became better acquainted with its melodies 1 saw that I was mistaken. The ragtime airs last for a day and are gone. This music will last as long as the cottntry lasts. Our sacred music is like pure gold. The more It is rubbed, the brighter it shines. “Ragtime, on the other hand, is like some cheap plated material. After a while you rub through the outer veneer and get to the unbeautiful alloy. “I know that ragtime is very popu lar, but it is a device of the devil for the most part, and is wholly of the world. You know the Bible says that the world will have its own.” The Rev. H. S. Reese, of Coweta County, and A. L. (“Honey”) Smith, of Lithonia, the two oldest singers at the convention, fully accorded with the singing instructor in his views. They did not approve of many of the popular musical innovations and voted that the old-time melodies were good enough for them. The Rev. Dr. Reese is 86 years old and has been a Baptist minister in Georgia for nearly 60 years. The old officers of the association were re-elected. They are: President, Colonel J. S. James, Atlanta; vice president, C. J. Griggs, Atlanta; sec retary, S. W. Everett, Almon, Ga.; general manager, T. B. Newton, At lanta- New Haven and Hartford Railroad. Larry Mulligan, step-brother of the missing politician, to-day identified the body of a man killed by a New Haven train at Pelham Parkway on August 31 as that of the missing East Side leader. Identification of the body was brought about by a policeman who knew Sullivan. He happened to pass through the Twenty-sixth street morgue w’hen he saw a face that looked familiar. He did not at once recognize the dead man, but later he decided it was Sullivan. Left Fortune of $2,000,000. “Big Tim” was 50 years old and left a fortune estimated at about $2,- 000,000. Ho was heavily interested in theatrical ventures and was a part ner in the vaudeville firm of Consl- dine & Sullivan. About a year ago Sullivan was declared incapable of administering his business affairs, and his estate was partitioned. Close friends of the dead politician be lieved that “Big Tim” had been given the worst of it, and said so plainly. The early life of “Big Tim” is lost in obscurity. His parents were pov erty-stricken, and ‘Big Tim” began life as a newsboy. His education was picked up at odd moments. The boast of his life was that while he had cast his lot among rough men, he never learned to drink. He attributed all his successful life to his abstinence. Sullivan was ambitious politically, and soon acquired a powerful fol lowing on the East Side. He became a Tammany man, although he never was dominated by the tiger. Elected to Congress. Branching out, Sullivan was elect ed to the Legislature. He is respon sible for the “Sullivan pistol law,” which prevents persons in this city from having weapons on their persons or in their homes. Aspiring for larg er things, Sullivan ran for Congress and was elected. About a year ago the politician got into such a condition that he could not recognize his friends and began to have hallucinations. He thought he was being persecuted by members of his family. “Big Tim” was taken to the home of his brother and kept under constant guard. He escaped, however, by keeping his keepers up until they fell asleep from exhaustion. It was given out that Sullivan es caped a week ago last Thursday, but the fact that his body was found on August 31 shows that he had made good his liberty before that. The po lice were not notified when “Big Tim” escaped, but private detectives were employed to search for him. Decision on the Prison Commis sion’s recommendation for pardon for Dr. W. J. McNaughton, expected this week, will be held In abeyance proba bly until the latter part of next week by Governor Slaton, pending a hear ing before him. Both sides will be heard. That a full pardon for the convicted slayer *>f Fred Flanders will be bit terly fought by persons interested in the case was Indicated when an ip- peal was made to the Governor that attorneys for the prosecution be per mitted to be heard against the ma jority recommendation of the Pr.son Commission, who asked that Mc Naughton be freed. Governor Slaton signified his will ingness to hear arguments, and the date will be set Monday, when the Governor concludes his review of the testimony. Sees Good Luck In “13.” There’s as much good luck as ill In “thirteen,” Dr. W. J. McNaughton believes. Two of Fate's most spite ful slaps were dealt to him on the 13th, but 1913 has been his lucky year, and the W6ek ending September 13, 1913, finds him expecting a par don before another seven days. Governor Slaton has worked the last three nights considering the rec ommendation of the Prison Commis sion that McNaughton be given a full pardon, and said Saturday that he expects to finish going over the testi mony Sunday. The Governor be lieve* reading over pardon cases is a work of mercy and fitting for the Sabbath, just as President Cleveland thought. Dr. McNaughton has prepared a chronology of his case and in the original manuscript has underscored the “thirteens.” Part “Thirteen” Has Played. He surrendered to the authorities at Augusta, charged with the mur der of Fred Flanders, June 13, 1910. The Supreme Court of Georgia re fused him a new trial September 13, 1911. But the year '13 brought the turn of the tide, for it has seen Mrs. Flanders’ case nolle prossed, a res pite from the fifth date set for the physician’s execution, and recom mendation for a full pardon for him from the Prison Commission. September 13, 1913. finds the Gov ernor deep in the study of the case, and preparing to call a hearing for the coming week, when Dr. Mc Naughton will learn his fate. Dr. McNaughton prepared this chronology of his own case in his cell in Savannah to show that ”13” >s not always unlucky: June 4, 1910—Fred Flanders died in Emanuel County. June 13, 1910—Dr. McNaughton surrendered at Augusta. June 14, 1910—Dr. McNaughton brought to Savannah for safe keeping. Aug. 5, 1910—Dr. McNaughton :aken to Swainsboro. Aug. 17, 1910—Indictment by Grand Jury against McNaughton and Mrs. Fred Flapders. Aug. 18, 1910—Trial started In Emanuel County Superior Court Aug. 19, 1910—Dr. McNaughton sentenced to hang December 9, 1910. Dec. 1, 1910—Motion for new’ trial filed, delaying sentence. Dec. 21, 1910—Refused new trial by Judge S. P. Gilbert, trial judge. May 14, 1911—Second date for execution. Sept. 13, 1911—Superior Court of Georgia refused new trial. Nov. 17, 1911—Third date for execution. Stay of sentence se cured by appeal to United States Supreme Court. The petition was later withdrawn. May 3, 1912—Fourth date set for execution. Extraordinary motion for a new trial filed. July 5, 1913—Mrs. Flanders’ case nol prossed. Ang. 5, 1913—Fifth date set for execution. Respite until October 5 by Governor Slaton. Sept. 11, 1913—Prison Commis sion recommends full pardon. Rests on King’s Catafalque at Impressive Service—Son Is Overcome by Grief. LIVERPOOL, Sept. 13.—Funeral honors, Impressive and of unprece dented character, were paid to the memory of the late William J. Gay- nor, Mayor of New York City, here to-day, previous to the shipment of the body on the liner Lusitania for New York. The ship sailed Just after AS SLAYER OF GIRL Brother of Victim of Hudson River Slaying Mystery Ac cuses Young Doctor. NEW YORK, Sept. 13.—Search was made by the police to-day for a young surgeon who, It is believed, was the slayer of the girl w'hose torso was found in the Hudson River and which has been posrttlvely identified as that of Ml** Antoinette Day, 23 years old, of Brooklyn. The identification was made by Frank Day, brother of the girl, through the peculiar birthmark on the shoulder of the murdered girl. Day furnished the police with the name, full description and a photo graph of the young surgeon whom he charges with being his sister’s slayer. Day gave as the motive for the murder of his sdster the fact that she soon would have become a mother, and that the young surgeon, who was married, was responsible. noon. In Town Hall, where the body of no man has lain since the edifice was built in 1754, the services were held, and every attending element conduced to the Idea of brotherhood, to the elimination of race or creed differ ences. After the services the body was es corted to the Cunard pier by detach ments of foot and mounted police. If the dead man had been some higfh officer of state in the British Gov ernment, the evidences of grief could scarcely have been greater. Flags were at half-mast and buildings hous ing representatives of the United States Government or United States enterprises were draped with black. Son Overcome by Grief. Rufus Gaynor, eon of the dead American, was so overcome with grief that he broke down and could not accompany his father's body to the pier Throughout the night the body had rested upon the royal catafalque, which was brought here from West minster Abbey, in London. Picked policemen from the Liverpool force stood on watch. This was an espe cial honor. Upon the royal catafalque had rest ed the body of King Edward VII, and more lately that of Lord Wolsey, Field Marshal of the kingdom. The great oak casket containing the body of the r»ead as though In keeping with the simple character of the man It contained, Dore the sole inscription: “WILLIAM J. GAYNOR. “Sept., 1913.” The catafalque rested at the foot of the grand stairway, and about it were twined the Stars and Stripes and the standard of England. It had been found necessary, b( fora the removal of the body, to re-em- baim it. At the same time a death mask was taken. The funeral services in Town Hall were conducted by a local clergyman. Among those attending were the Lord Mayor. Horace L. Washington, United States Consul at Liverpool, and 'he staff of the Consulate.

Dr. McNaughton Is past grand master of the order for the State of North Carolina. Lodge Investigated. When all hope seemed gone. May 3, 1912, the grand master for North Carolina took up the case with the grand master of Georgia. The I. O. O. F. investigated thoroughly and came to the conclusion that Dr. Mc Naughton is innocent. The State wide campaign for a pardon then began. “I have no doubt in the world that I soon will be a free man.” said Dr. McNaughton Saturday. “Proba bly I should not jubilate so much before I am out of jail, but somehow I feel that the effort* of my friends and attorneys have met the reward they highly deserved—justice. “I do not intend to live again in South Georgia. My first desire when I am freed will be to see my two boya I shall straighten out some odds and ends of business at Swains- boio. and then choose a place to re sume practice.

Vacation is over. Again the school bell rings at morning and at noon; again with tens of thousands the hardest kind of work has begun, the renewal of which is a mental and J physical strain to all except the most rugged. The little girl that a few days ago had roses in her cheeks. ) and the little boy whose lips were then so red you would have insisted that they had been “kissed by straw berries.’’ have already lost some thing of the appearance of health Now is a time when many children should be given a tonic, which may avert much serious trouble, and we know of no other so highly to be recommended as Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which strengthens the nerves, per fects digestion and assimilation, and aids mental development by building up the whole system.

RESINOL CURED BLISTERY, ITCHY HUMOR ON HANDS Burlesque, Columbia Theater, Monday 7:30 p. m. St. Louis, Mo., June 9, 1913.— “My wife was troubled with what looked like water blisters on the back of her hands. They itched and burned so much that she had to be rubbing them most of the time. After a while they broke open and began running together, leaving a raw and very unsightly sore, so that she had to wear gloves whenever she went out. “We tried a half dozen different remedies and prescriptions, but to no avail, until one day I received a sample of Resinol Soap and Res- lnol Ointment. She got so much encouragement from the sample that I bought a large jar of Res inol Ointment and a cake of Res inol Soap. After using it about three nights we discovered a great improvement In about a week a skin began to form, and the itch ing and burning ceased. After using only one Jar of Resinol Ointment and a cake of Resinol Soap, she was entirely cured. This was six years ago, and she has not been troubled since.” (Signed) Charles Weber, 2628 Franklin Ave. Better proof, even than such a letter, la to try Resinol yourself and see how quickly the trouble disappears.
