Pittsburg, Pa., Aug. 27.—It was
leumed today that a well-planned at
tempt was made to either kidnap or
murder Tom Madine, the coachman, a
•lay or two before he went on the
stand in the Hartje divorce trial. A
telephone message was sent to a livery
stable where Madine was working,
asking him to meet Attorney . John
Freeman, Mrs. Hartje's chief counsel,
at a certain place that night. The
message was delivered to Madine, and
because of the lonely nature of the
meeting place, he became suspicious.
He called Attorney Freeman, wl
knew nothing of it. Then a* plan wi
laid to catch the parties. With several
detectives, Madine went to the place at
the hour named, but just as they
nenred It five men dashed away In an
automobile which had been drawn up
at the side of the road In the shadow
of some busjies. Since then Madine
has never been without a guard. He
returned today from Atlantic City,
where for two weeks he has not been
from under the eyes of his guards day
or night.

St. Louts, Mo., Aug. 27.—Gasoline 1s

In the vicinity of Marcus and St. Louis
avenues have discovered Its Intoxicat

TRY A WANT-AD -
IN THE GEORGIAN
Will the Populist* hold a convention
In Atlanta Tuesday?
Nobody seems to know definitely
what will be done about It. Judge J.
Hines says there will be no com-
ventlon; J. E. Bodenhamer, who Is not
secretary of the state executive com
mittee, according to J. A. Bodenhamer,
committeeman from the Seventh dis
trict and editor of the Dalton Herald,
populist organ, says there will not
be; Chairman J. J. Holloway In a
card to The Georgian Saturday said
there would be a convention.
So therfe Is the conflict of opinion.
Tljp Georgian Is In receipt of a letter
from M. A. Bodenhamer, of Dalton,
who writes on the letter head of the
Dalton Herald, and signs “The Dalton
Herald, M. A. Bodenhamer/* He says
that the state committee alone has the
power to call off the convention for
Tuesday, and not Chairman Holloway,
J. E. Bodenhamer (who Is not secre
tary of the committee) or any other
Individual. In conclusion the writer
says: “From the tone of the letters
received daily there WILL BE a con
vention on August 28."
What Holloway Atke.
clipping from the Dalton Herald
of August 29 Is enclosed containing an
open letter from Chairman Holloway.
He says that Tom Watson In a letter
to him advises that no convention be
held and no ticket be put out. Wat
son suggests that he confer with the
committeemen and get a consensus of
opinion along this line.
Chairman Holloway then proceeds to
propound several questions to the com
mitteemen. He first wants to know
whether it will be best to call off
the convention of August 28 or wait
and sec the result of the primary' of
August 22 (the letter Is dated August
18.) The third question Is as fol
lows:
“Or shall we meet and declare our
complete divorcement from the Demo
cratic party, form a mammoth Peoples
Party Club, and declare our adherence
to the v-lll of the majority of. those
who will enroll as Populists, thus lay
ing the foundations anew for the on
ward march of Populism, and express
our undying determination to have a
full ticket In the field at an early
date for the next campaign regardless
of what the Democratic party may
do?"
Quotes Tom Watson.
Editor Bodenhamer. comments at
length oh this question. He Intimates
that neither Tom Watson nor Judge
Hines has any right to advise or at
tempt to dictate any policy or course
of conduct to the populists, since both
have, at least temporarily, enlisted
under the Democratic banner.
,He says that ns the committeeman
from the Seventh district he favors
holding the convention and placing
ticket in the field, and concludes:
"We are In favor of standing by and
building up the Peoples party because
of the prlndlpes It advocates. Those
principles are the same today os they
were when Mr. Watson made them
the following glowing appeal:
" 'The clouds gather, I know', and the
storm and darkness come upon the
land. The weaklings perish; the birds
of the day fall and flutter and perish.
But the eagle—he of the ages—strong
of wing and dauntless of heart, rises
against the storm, beats hhi wray thro’
It and beyond it, and gives a fierce
cry of joy ns he bathes his wings In
the sunlight above the clouds. Oh,
spirit of Populism! Be thou the eagle,
to rise against the darkness and the
storm, and to live In the sunlight be
yond when the tempest Is past and
gone.'"
State Committee.
The .state executlye committee of the
Peoples party Is as follows:
J. J. Holloway, chairman, Clem, Ga.
First'district, Colquitt Daniel, Hagan,
Ga.
Second district, J. H. Parrish, Syl
vester.
Third district, H. M. Searcy, Davls-
ton.
Fourth district, R. B. Gaston, Car
rollton.
Alternate, C. T. Hensly, Villa Rica.
Fifth district, C. T. Parker, Atlanta,
026 Chestnut street.
Alternate, N. A. Farmer, Llthonla.
Sixth district, F. J. Vining, Thouian-
ton.
Seventh district, J. A. Bodenhamer,
Dalton.
Eighth district—None present—last
elected can act
Ninth district, J. T. Waters, Gaines
ville.
Tenth district, W. J. Henning.
Eleventh district, G. B. Crane, Dixie.
So this appears to be the muchly
mixed situation. From present Indica
tions it would seem that the only way
to definitely tell whether the Populists
meet on August 28 is to wait for that
date.
Journey to Unknown Lind Under Guidance
of Two Religions- -Modern Christianity
and Old World Mysticism.
H|kv1.I to The Gt-nrjrtfin.
Spartanburg, 8. C„ Aug. 27.—Jo*
Koon and John Gold.n, colorad, were
killed at Croaa Hill Thuraday after
noon by lightning. They were alttlng
In front of a fireplace In Oolden'a houae
during a thunder atnrm. Lightning
■truck the chimney and both Golden
and Koon were Instantly killed.
With pungent Incenae from burning
Joaa Sticks mingling with fragrance of
anow white llowers, surrounded by
Christian teachera of the modern Weat
and aoft-footed natives of the sleeping
Orient, Joe Lee, once a worshiper of
the Chinese goda, but a convert to the
religion of hie adopted country, waa
given hla Inst Journey Sunday after
noon. Hla funeral waa a atrange com
bination of Christian services and
quaint old world rites and a striking
example of the tolerance and breadth
of tho churches of today.
In far away Canton, where Reeta of
sampans ply upon the broad river and
thousands upon thousands of yellow
skinned Celeatlala struggle for their
dally rice, a woman walta for the re
turn of the husband she wedded years
ago. It will be weeks before she Jearna
that ahe la a tyldow, for the frugal
Chinese ore not contributors to the
cable companies. But to her Joe Lee
can be but little more than a name, fbr
years have come and gone since he
left the child-wife to seek a fortune
In the land of the strange white devils.
Perhapa It waa like many another Chi-
neee wedding, a marriage service, a
parting at the ship and a farewell for
yeara or forever. More than hnlf of
the quiet wearers of the queue In
America left a wife behind them in
the country of the emperor. For more
years than many of hla customera
could recall Joe Lee kept hla laundry
In Atlanta. Always he was found be
hind his table, starching. Ironing,
spraying the white linen from between
his teeth, while he hummed a droning
monotone in a language strange to
passera-by. Perhaps he waa singing
of far away Canton, of the little yellow
wife who waited for his return, of an
old age of wealth and ease In his own
country. But Joe Lee was destined
to penetrate the veil of the unknown
from an alien land, through a path de
spised by his ancestors.
Dead in Hla Bed.
A week ago a belated customer call
ed at Joe Lee'a shop for his Sunday
mofnlng laundry, but the shutters had
not been opened. An Investigation was
made nnd the body of Joe Lee was
found In his bed. His soul had winged
Its way to another land. His Chris
tianised friends called It heaven; the
adherents to the Chinese gods gave It
a mine as flowery as only Orlentlal
pools can Imagine.
For a week the body lay at the un
dertaking establishment of Darctey ft
Drandon. The thrifty Chinese waited
for another Bunday when every friend
might attend the funeral without loss
of a working hour. At noon Bunday
the Chinese services began. A Chris
tian ceremony followed, for Joe Lee
had long since become a convert
through the mission classes of the
church.
But while the small class qf Chris
tianised Chinese were willing to trust
the spirit of their friend to the new
religion, those of the old faith begged
that they might make sure of Joe
Lee’s reception Into the world beyond
by guarding his spirit In their accept
ed way. Surely It could do no harm,
certainly It would relieve the doubts
of his relatives In the old country and
the new, for several of Joe Lee's cou
sins followed him to Atlanta. Thus
two services were arranged.
The body lay In state In the chapel
at noon on Sunday. Great white floral
emblems, a harp, a white dove, a cross,
covered the coffln from view. These
were the Christians tributes. Triose
of the Chinese were of a different na
ture.
Old Werld Rites.
When half a dosrn of the unconvert
ed Celeatlala arrived, some with queues

closely cropped oily hair, but all dree.,
ed In the garb of twentieth century
America, th* Chinese rites began. Woo
Fou San SI conducted the aervlces. The
others stood close by with never a ray
of expression In the slanting eyes, their
faces Impassive as though no such
thing as death were In the world.
At the foot of the cofRn burned sev
eral Joaa sticks, the ends glowing In a
spark which sent up clouda of fragrant
amoke. Three tapers of red wax flamed
beside them. A few curious Americans
In the background looked on with in
tereat.
Woo Fou San spread a cloth upon
the floor at the foot of their bier and
knelt upon It. Three tlmea he bowed
before the coffln, hla shaven head
touching the floor at each salaam,
few mysterious gestures followed,
cloth of rad and white was waved
above the Incense and Woo Fou San
arose. The Honors on thq bier wero
removed and the cloth, an emblem of
the Chinese -Free Masons, was laid
across the coffln and the flowera re-
f Raced. A great platter of Chinese del-
cacles, freshly cooked chicken, spicy
curries, bits of birds' nesls from the
old country, were laid before the coffln
that the spirit of Joe Lee might have
sustenance on Its tong journey to the
gate of mystery.
Aa the minister and teachera of the
mission etnas arrived the Joae sticks
and viands were removed. The Rev.
A. C. Ward, pastor of the Temple Bap
Hat Church, read the service nf the
church In the usual way and the coffln
was borne to the hearse. One of the
Chinamen mounted to the seat beside
the driver.
To Baffle the Devil.
The route to Westvlew Cemetery
was changed to permit the procession
to pass the meeting place or the Free
Masons on Hunter street. Twenty car
riages filled with Chinese were In line.
As the cortege passed through the
streets the man on the hearse threw
Into the air bits of tissue pnper per
forated with hundreds of tiny holes.
There were to delay the devil In his
pursuit of the spirit of Joe Lee, for
his majesty must pass through each of
the perforations nnd this would re
quire much time and enable the spirit
to reach the heavenly gates before the
dovtl could overtake It.
At the open grave In Westvlew a
curious crowd of hundreds watted for
the arrival of the procession. The cu
riosity seekers were given little to In
terest them. A few colored cloths were
piled at the foot of the grave and
burned, the amoke rising through the
sunlight while the words of the Chris
tian service were repealed. Bach
friend of the departed Jo* Lee threw n
handful of earth upon the coffln and
turned awny. The body of Joe Lee
hnd been placed safely In Its Inst bed,
hla spirit was on Its way to the un
known and the followers of the two
religions were content In their own be
lief as to Its destination. Aa the crowd
departed from the rapidly filling grave
one thoughtful watcher repeated softly
the words of that old Persian pessimist
who haa set ao many wondering:
"There waa the veil through which I
could not see,
There was the door to which I had no
key."

that la being done by the government
anngboat on these river*. The snagboat
made a trip and removed many obsta
cles several months ago, but on account
of high water many snags could not
be located at that time.
The rivers are now low. and theae
obatructlona to navigation are being
removed rapidly. When the snagboat
completes the work now under way It
la expected that the steamboat line re
cently established between Macon and
Brunswick will be able to make much
quicker schedule, than they have been
heretofore.
