IN POLICE COURTROOM
The police court room wm the scene
>f an unusual Incident Saturday morn
ing when J. A. Stln.on and hla wife,
who mid.- at no Berean av.nua,
formally separated In public, before
Recorder Broyles, and Mrs. Stinson
gars her two children Into the cara ot
the father.
The formal separation took place at
the conclusion of the trial of Stinson,
of hla wife that he had
failed to properly provide for her and
the children.
Rllneon made the counter charge that
hie wife was all to blame, asserting
that, she pawned Ills personal effects
anil aggravated him In other ways un
til It had become Imposallile to live
with her. Stinson said he lind been In
Birmingham lately, but returned to At
lanta Friday night after his children.
After the husband and wife had
agreed to separate, Judge Broyles dis
missed the case, remarking that he
considered the separation the best so
lution. Stinson said he wanted the
children and Mrs. Stinson agreed to
give them to him, remarking that aha
had struggled with them long enough.
COPPER BALL OF CHURCH
CONTAINS MANY RELICS
Oeorge A. Coleinan and "Shorty"
Martin, the two "Steeple Jacks," who
have been demolishing tbs stseple of
the old First Baptist church. Saturday
morning reached the top and cut down
the copper ball, which haa been sup
posed to contain the corner-stone relics
of the church. This, however, Is ah
tiTor.
Tha ball was made when the church
waa built, about lit*, and Dr. J. W.
Roberts, former pastor of Trinity
church, and afterwards for a time
president of Wesleyan College, was at
that lime employed In the office of
Runnlcutt and Relllngrath, who were
doing ■ general hardware nnd sheet
metal business then. Knowing that the
ball was to be made and sealed, Mr.
Roberts requested the privilege of
sealing up some papers of various
kinds In It, which was allowed him.
This was a purely personal matter,
and had nothing official In It. Mr.
Roberts afterwards went away to col
lege nnd studied for the ministry, nnd
learning not long since that the church
was to be demolished, he obtained per
mission from Ass <1. Candler, Jr., who
bought the building, to take the ball
sway when It was taken down. Dr.
Roberts stated Saturday that nfter he
had opened It he would he glntl to give
out a list of such as would be of In
terest to the public. As far as ran be
learned, there was no comer-stone Intd
and this ball Is the nearest approach
to anvthlng of that kind, and even of
Its existence no one was aware until
It first rams to tits ground, another
place of the steeple fell very close to
the crowd, nnd u amnll-alaed panic was
on for a few moments, but fortunately
no one was hurl. Mr. Coleman anil Ills
assistant were so high above the
ground that It was Impossible to hear
» word they aald, though they shout
ed at tha tops of their voices ti
the crowd below. It requires nerve on
the part of a man to swing on the
side of a steep roof such as that one
was, but It dltl not seem to trouble the
“Steeple Jacks" In Iht slightest degree,
as they do not seem to think any more
of a job at that height than the aver
age man doe. of going up to ahlngle a
roof.
