“A snare of the evil one" was the
designation given to modem ragtime
music and its accompanying words
by Professor R. 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 peculiar four-
note system of singing which is used
by the Sacred Harp singers.
“1 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singing was old-fogy and out of date,”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 country 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
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 ftev. 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

Hotel Men Plan to
Banquet Farnsworth
A dinner in honor of Colonel P'Yed
E. Farnsworth, general secretary of
the American Bankers’ Association
will be given ui the Georgia Pine
room of the Hotel Ansley Monday
evening at 8 o’clock.
The banquet will be tendered by
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 when 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. He was heavily interested in
theatrical ventyres and was a part
ner in the vaudeville firm of Consi-
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 though!
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 81 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.
Took Drug; Called
Dr., Who Gave More
Decision on the Prison Commis- j
sion’s recommendation for pardon for i
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 of Fred Flanders will be bit
terly fought 'by persons interested in
the case was indicated when an ap
peal was made to the Governor that
attorneys for the prosecution be per
mitted to be heard against the ma
jority recommendation of the Prison j
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 week 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
lieves 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
f 'sed him a new trial September 13,
1911.
But the year T3 brought the turn
of the tide, Tor 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.
The I. O. O. F. with its “left hand
of fellowship,” is credited with bring
ing Dr. McNaughton so near the door
of freedom. Dr. McNaughton is past
grand master of the order for the
State of North Carolina.
Lodge Investigated.
When all hope seemed gone, Maj
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 snould not jutilate so much
before I am out of jail, but somehow
f feel that the effort* of my friends
and attorneys have met the reward
they highly deserved—justice.
“I do not intend to live again ir.
South Georgia. My first desire when
I am freed will be to see my two
bova I shall straighten out some
odds and ends of business at Swains-
boi j. and then choose a place to re
sume practice. It may be in North
Carolina or Augusta or Savannah.
Several frlend3 have made offers to
see that I am started well again In
my profession.”
How McNaughton
Proves '13' Is Not
Always Unlucky
Dr. McNaughton prepared this
chronology of his own case in his
cell in Savannah to show that “13”
Is 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
taken to Swainsboro.
Aug. 17, 1910—Indictment by
Grand Jury against McNaughton
and Mrs. Fred Flanders.
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.

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 whose torso
was found In the Hudson River and
which has been positively identified
as that of Miss 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.
Dav gave as the motive for the
murder of his siister the fact that she
soon would have become a mother
and that the young surgeon, who was
married, was responsible.
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 ol
the body on the liner Lusitania for
New York. The ship sailed just after
noon.
In Town Hall, where the body ol
no man has lain since the edifice was
built In 1754, the services wera 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 wm es
corted to the Cunard pier by detach
ments of foot and mounted police. TS
the dead man had been some high
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 Overoome by Grief.
Rufus Gaynor, son of the dead
American, was so overcome with grief
that he broke dow'n and could not
accompany his father's body to the
pier v
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. T ie
great oak casket containing the body
of the dead as though in keeping
with the simple character of the m;in
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 fore
the removal of the body, to re-em-
balm 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 ?he Consulate. Mr. Wilson,
an attache of the American Consulate,
accompanied the body on board the
Lusitania
3 Killed, 1 Wounded,

The injury was received in a run
away about three months ago.
GADSDEN, Sept. 13.—Robert Reed,

Urges Doctor Wiley
WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.—A re
duction from $1.10 to 50 cents per
gallon tax on brandies used In forti
fying California wines probably will
be made by the conferees on the tariff
bill. This purpose has been given
impetus by an amendment to the
tariff bill to permit additions of sug
ar to Ohio wines after fermentation.
This amendment Is the object of
an attack by Dr. Harvey W. Wiley,
former United States Chief Chemist,
who says it would permit the adulter
ation of all wines. He urges the peo
ple to protest.

RESINOL CURED
BLISTERY, ITCHY
HUMOR ON HANDS
St. Louia, Mo., Jun© 9, 1918.—
“My wife wai troubled with what
looked like water blisters on th©
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 Itesinol Soap and Res-
Inol Ointment. She got so much
encouragement from the sample
that I bought a large jar of Res-
Inol Ointment and a cake of Res-
lnol 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 anti 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, Is to try Resinol yourself
and see how quickly the trouble
disappears. Resinol Ointment and
Resinol Soap are sold by all drug
gists. For free trial, writ© to

Th© Renewal a Strain.
Vacation la 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
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.
