Chance to Boost Georgia.
State Geologist S. W. McCallle, one
of the active committee members in
( barge of arrangements, said Friday
that the meeting* of next week, asid<
from their benefit to science, would
prove of great value in bringing be
fore the scientists and the public the
wonderful resources (if the South and
of Georgia in particular.
"New Hampshire is known aa ‘the
Granite State,’ ” he said, “and yet it
is a fact that Georgia produces more
granite than New Hampshire. The
general public, of course, Is not ac
quainted with this circumstance. New
Hampshire has the name and the
glory of leading In this particular. It
is time that Georgia made the extent
of her resources known to the world.
"Then there is marble. Georgia
vrodpces more marble than all of the
rest of the Southern States put to
gether. Vermont probably is the only
State in the Union that leads Georgia
in the production of marble.
. "AJuch of this information will be
developed at the meetings of the va
rious sections next week. The enor
mous mineral resources of the South
ern States have been surveyed and
.measured by the Federal and State
geological surveys and these re
sources are represented on a large
scale map recently prepared at
Washington.
Minerals on Exhibition.
"This map. w ith charts showing the
mineral products for 1912, will be on
exhibit here in the Uapitol through
out the sessions of the association.
"Among the mineral exhibits that
will accompany the charts will be
fourteen samples of coal from ten
Southern States and twelve samples
«*f oil from four Southern States
There also will be wimples of gran
ite, marble and other stones frurh
eight States, as well as sulphur,
bauxite, phosphate rock, fuller's earth
and other mineral products"
The ministers of Atlanta have been
asked to preach sermons next Sunday
on the relation of science and re
ligion. and the majority of them will
comply.

Judge’s Doubt as to Guilt or In
nocence of Prisoner Subject
of Extended Argument.
Judge L. S. Roan's doubt uh to the
guilt or innocence of Leo M. Frank,
given expression at the time the mo
tion for a new trial was overruled,
will be the subject of an extended ar
gument in the HUpplemental brief to
be filed Saturday with the Supreme
Court by the attorneys for the de
fense.
Because of Attorney General Fel
der’s vigorous argument before the
Supreme Court, attacking the validity
• f the incorporation <>f Judge Roan’s
expression of doubt in the bill of ex
ceptions, this Incident of the long le
gal battle for Frank’s life, touched on
only lightly in the original brief and
argument of the defense, and men
tioned in the oral arguments not at
all, is deemed worthy of a thorough
discussion in the supplemental brief.
Idrectly contradicting the Attorney
General’s contention that it was an
unprecedented and highly dangerous
procedure to use the bill of exceptions
as a vehicle for the court’s opinion or
lack of opinion, the supplemental
brief holds that Judge Roan, having
shirked or mistaken his duty in the
first place in failing to grant a new
trial, had no recourse left as an offl-
(ial desiring impartially to adminis
ter Justice but to certify to his ex
pression of opinion at the conclusion
of the hearing for a new trial.
C'tes Former Reversals.
So far from being an unimportant
or negligible ground for a new trial,
the supplemental brief sets forth that
the Supreme Court of Georgia in pre
vious cases has repeatedly reversed
the court below where it appeared
from the record that the trial court,
from timidity or from misapprehen
sion of the law, failed to exercise his
own discretion and substituted the
verdict of the Jury for that discretior
which it was his solemn duty to exer
cise.
A number of cases were cited in the
original brief and argument, and were
not made the subject of any discus
sion. In the supplemental brief each
one is taken up with some minuteness
and commented upon in their bearing
on the Frank case.
The remainder of the supplemental
brief is largely occupied with what
the defense characterizes as the mis
statements and misrepresentations of
Solicitor General Dorsey. Reuben R.
Arnold, of counsel for Frank, said
Friday that he did not wish the im
pression to get abroad that the de
fense claimed or believed that the al
leged misstatements were in any way
intentional on the part of the Solici
tor.
"There is no doubt In our minds,"
be said, “that the prosecution de
viated from the farts of the case a
number of times. It also is tine that
improve inferences were drawn in
the arguments that were made by the
State.
Tape Evidence Recalled.
"But it is not our intention at al*
to charge that these misrepresenta
tions were made purposely. All that
we are doing Is to call them to the at
tention of the Supreme Court with-
CUt an effort or desire to Imply an Im
proper motive In their presentation."
One of the most glaringly improper
inferences drawn by the Solicitor, ac
cording to the supplemental brief, was
contained in his charge that another
tape had been substituted by Frank
for the one taken out of the time
clock the morning the body of Mary
Phagan was found. Everything in
the evidence, says the argument,
pointed to the conclusion that it was
the identical tape taken from the
clock.
The supplemental brief will cover
about 30 typewritten pages. It will
not he printed as the other docu
ments of the case have been. The
State probably will not submit a sup
plemental brief, being satisfied to rest
its case with the Supreme Court as it
now stands.
9 Cabinet Children
Go to Public Schools
WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.—Another ev
idence that this is a simple Democratic
ad ministration is given by the fact that
nine Cabinet children attend the public

son of the Secretary of State, is a third
grade pupil.
Two of the three lively Daniels
youngsters Jonathan and Frank, are in

His great chum there is Franklin K
I«ane, Jr., son of the Secretary of the

tary of Labor and Mrs. Wilson are in

'SNOW BABY.' DAUGHTER OF FINDER
OF NORTH POLE, WILL MAKE DEBUT
Marie Peary to Have Her “Com
ing Out” at National Capital
on January 22.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 26.—Interest
to-day centers in the coming recep
tion on January 22 to be given by
Admiral Robert Peary, discoverer of
the North Pole, and Mrs. Peary, at
which their daughter. Marie, known
the world over as "Anighito," the
"Snow Baby," will make her debut.
Coupled with new* of the coming-
cut party of the young woman, who
recently graduated from Western
High School, in Georgetown, was the
report that announcement of her en
gagement would shortly be made by
her parentp.
Het* engagement to Donald B. Mc
Millan, leader of the Crocker Island
expedition and intimate friend of her
father, was made last summer, but
promptly denied by both Miss Peary
and McMillan.
"Anighito" was the name given by
the Kskimod to Miss Peary following
her birth on September 12, 1893, at
her father’s winter quarters at Bow-
doin Bay, in the Arctic. She was the
first white child in history to be horn
in Hie frozen North.

of darkness not In tlie least deter
ring her growth. She has returned
thrice to the Arctic, and has many
recollections of the stirring episodes
which marked her early life in that
section of the world.

cessful quest for the pole "Snow Ba

her mother to greet him, and returned

NEW ARRESTS IN SHRINE HOST TO
EXPRESS THEFT SET X RECORD.
Detective Official Says Messenger
Turner Is First of Several
Likely To Be Taken.
More arrests as the result of the
Inquiry into the alleged systematic
robbery of express companies by mes
sengers on mall trains are expected
soon, according to a 5rtatement Friday
by a Pinkerton official, who is con
ducting the investigation with the
agents of the United States Marshal.
The Government officials are
brought into the Investigation by the
Carlin law. which provides for Fed
eral investigation of thefts commit
ted on mail trains, whether from the
Government mails,- private individ
uals or corporations.
"Scores of cases similar to that of
J. T. Turner and D T. Alexander,
who were arrested Wednesday, are
being investigated." said the official,
"and we have Just begun to get into
action. Developments indicate that
there is a systematic robbery of the
express companies going on and the
game is being worked smoothly.
"The investigation has been going
on for almost a year, and while the
arrest of Turner ami Alexander was
the first, it is probable that there will
be others soon.”
Alexander, who resides at No. 129
Mills street, was arraigned before
United States (’ommissioner Carter
Friday charged with having received
a jhotgun Turner is said to have con
fess^ he stole from the Southern Ex
press ’ompany.
At the request of Attorney Pome-
oy, who represented Alexander, and
*n t v e plea that material witnesses
were absent, the hearing was post-
ponen until Saturday.
Turner, who is said to have con
fessed to a series of robberies that
has puzzled detectives for more than
a year, has been held to the. Federal
Grand Jury on bonds of $2,000. which
he furnished Thursday, in time to
spend the greater part of Christmas
Day with his family.
Government officials declare Turner
has confessed his part in the thefts,
and probably will plead guilty. Alex
ander, according to his attorneys, ex
pects to fight his case, declaring he
did not receive the shotgun with the
knowledge that it had been stolen.
Forrest Adair, potentate of Yaarab
Temple of Shriners, predicted Friday
that Atlanta will have the largest
crowd of visitors in its history when
the Shriners come here for their na
tional convention next May.
"People do not seem yet to realize
the immensity of the throngs that will
invade the city.” he remarked. "They
seem to take it for granted that a lot
of visitors will be here, but appear
not to appreciate that it is a certainty
that all records will be broken.
"Railroad rates from all points cov
ered by the Southeastern Passenger
Association will be the lowest ever.
This means railroad lines in all of the
territory south of the Ohio and Po
tomac Rivers and east of the Missis
sippi. The (’entral Passenger Asso
ciation and the Transcontinental lines
also will give as low rates as they
ever have offered. Low rates always
mean a big crowd, even when there is
no other special attraction. With the
Imperial Council meeting here, At
lanta w f ill have more visitors to en
tertain than it ever had before.”
