Hr Private Leased Wire.
Pittsburg, Pa., Aug. 37.—It was
learned today that a well-planned at
tempt waa made to either kidnap or
murder Tom Madlne, the coachman, a
day or two before he went on the
aland In th* Hartje divorce trial. A
telephone meanage waa sent to a livery
stable where Madlne 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 Madlne, and
because of the lonely nature of the
meeting place, he became auaplcloue.
.He called Attorney Freeman, who
knew nothing of It. Then a plan waa
laid to catch the parties. With several
detectives, Madlne went to the place at
the hour named, but just ns they
neared It five men dashed away In an
automobile which had been drawn up
at the aide of the road tn thc shadow
of some bushes. Since then Madlno
has never been without a guard,
returned today from Atlantic City,
where for two weeks he has not been
from under the eyes of his guards day
or night.

TRY A WANT AD
IN THE GEORGIAN
Will the Populists hold a convention
In Atlanta Tuesday?
Nobody seems to know definitely
what will be done about It. Judge J.
K. Hines says there will be no com-
ventlon; J. E. Bodenhamer, who Is not
secretary of tho state executive com
mittee, according to J. A. Bodenhamer,
committeeman from the Seventh dls-
trlct^and editor of the Dalton Herald,
populist organ, e9ys there will not
; Chairman J. J. Holloway In
card to The Georgian Saturday said
there would.be a convention.
So there Is. the conflict of opinion.
The Georgian la lii 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 dally there WILL BE a con
vention on August 28."
What Holloway Asks,
clipping from the Dalton Herald
of August 38 la enclosed containing an
open letter from Chairman Holloway.
He nays that Tom Wateon In a letter
to him advises that no convention be
held end 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 coll off
I the convention of August 38 or wait
land seq the result of the primary of
August 33 (the letter la 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, an9 declare our adherence
to the vlll of the majority ot 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
dor
Quotss Tom Watson.
Editor Bodenhamer comments
length on this question. He Intimates
that neither Tom Watson nor Judge
Hines has any right to advise or at
tempt to dictate any policy or couree
of conduct to the populists, since both
have, at leaat temporarily, enlisted
under the Democratic banner.
He says that as the committeeman
from the Seventh district he favors
holding thc convention and plnclng TT
ticket In the field, and concludes:
“Wo are in favor of standing by and
building up the Peoples party because
of the prlndlpcs It advocates. Those
principles are the same today as 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 dauntleea of heart, rises
against the storm, beats his way thro 1
It and beyond It, and gives a fierce
cry of Joy as he bathes hla 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 thc sunlight be
yond when the tempest Is past and
gone.' ”
§tate Committee.
The etatc executive committee of the
Peoples party Is as follows: •
J. J. Holloway, chairman, Clem, Oa.
First district, Colquitt Daniel, Hagan,
Go.
Second district, J. H. Parrish, Syl
vester.
Third district, H. M- Searcy, Davis,
ton.
Fourth district, R. B. Gaston, Car
rollton.
Alternate, C. T. Hensly, Villa Blcn.
Fifth district, C. T. Parker, Atlanta,
828 Chestnut street.
Alternate, N. A. Farmer, Llthonla.
Sixth district, F. J. Vlnlng, Thomas-
ton. , .
Seventh district, J. A. Bodenhamer,
Dalton. „ . , .
Eighth district—None present—lest
elected can act.
Ninth district, J. T. Waters, Gaines
ville.
Tenth district, W. J. Henning.
Eleventh district, O. B. Crone, 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 38 Is to wait for that
date.
Journey to Unknown Lind Under Guidance
of Two Religions-*-Modern Christianity
and Old World Mysticism.
ftim-lsl to The Oeoritsn.
Spartanburg, B. C., Aug. 87.—Joe
Koon and John Golden, colored, were
killed at Cross Hill Thursday after
noon by lightning. They were sitting
In front of a fireplace tn Golden's house
during a thunder storm. Lightning
struck the chimney and both Golden
and Koon were Instantly killed.
With pungent Incense from burning
Joss sticks mingling with fragrance of
snow white flowers, surrounded by
Christian teachers of ths modern West
and soft-footed natives ot ths sleeping
Orient, .Joe' Lee, once a worshiper of
the Chinese gods, but a convert to the
religion of his adopted country, was
given his lost Journey Sunday after
noon. His funeral was a strange com
bination of Christian services and
quaint- old world rites a>vd a striking
example of the tolerance and breadth
of the churches of today.
In far away Canton, whers fleets of
sampans ply upon the broad river and
thousands upon thousands of yellow
skinned Celestials struggle for .their
dally rice, a woman walte for the re
turn of the husband ahe wedded years
ago. It will be weeks before she learns
that she Is a widow, for the frugal
Chinese are not contributors to the
cable companies. But to her Joe Lee
can be but little more than a name, tor
years have come and gone since he
left the child-wife to seek a fortune
In the land of the strange white devlte.
Perhaps It was like many another Chi
nese wedding, a marriage service, a
parting at the ship and a farewell for
years or forever. More than half of
the quiet wearers of the queue In
America left a wife behind them In
the country of thq emperor. For more
years than many of his customers
could recall Joe Lee kept his laundry
In Atlanta. Always he was found be
hind his table, starching, Ironing,
•praying the white linen from between
his teeth, while he hummed a droning
monotone In a language strange to
passers-by. Perhaps he 'was singing
of far away Canton, of the little yellow
wife who waited for hla return, of an
old ng* 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
splsed by his ancestors.
Dead in His Bed.
A week ago a belated customer call
ed at Joe Lee's shop for hl.s Sunday
morning.laundry, but the shutters had
not been opened. An Investigation was
made and the body of Jo* Lee was
found In his bed. His soul had winged
Its way to another land. Hla Chris
tianised friends called It heaven: the
adherents to the Chinese gods gnve It
a name as flowery as only Orientla!
poets can Imagine.
For a week the body lay at the un
dertaklng establishment of Barclcy &
Brandon. The thrifty Chinese waited
for another Sunday when every friend
might attend the funeral without loss
of a working hour. At noon Sunday
the Chinese services bdgnn. 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 of Chris
tlanlied Chinese were willing to trust
the spirit of their friend to the neiv
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 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. Those
of the Chinese were of It different nn-
ture.

closely cropped oily hair, but nil dress
ed In the garb of twentieth century
America, the Chinese rites began. Woo
Fou San SI conducted the services. The
others stood close by with never a ray
of expression In the slanting eyes, their
faces Impasslvs as though no such
thing as death were In the world.
At the foot of the coffln burned sev
eral Joss sticks, the ends glowing In a
•park which sent up cloud* of fragrant
smoke. Three tapers of rod wax flamed
beside them. A few curious Americans
In the background looked on with In
terest.
Woo Fou San spread a cloth upon
the floor at the foot of their bier and
knelt upon It. Three times he bowed
before the coffln. his shaven head
touching tho floor at each salaam. A
few mysterious gestures followed, n
cloth of red ana white was waved
above the Incense and Woo Fou San
arose. The flowers on the bier were
removed snd the cloth, an emblem of
the Chinese Free Masons, was laid
across the coffln and the flowers re-
f ilaced. A great platter of Chinese del-
cacles, freshly cooked chicken, spicy
curries, bits of birds' nests from the
old country, were laid before the coffln
that the spirit of Joe Lee might have
sustenance onjts long Journey to the
gate of mystery.
As the minister and teachers of the
mission class arrived the Joss sticks
and viands were removed. The Bev.
A. C. Ward, pastor of the Temple Bap-
flat Church, read the aervlce ot the
church In the usual way and the coffln
was borne to the hearse. One ot the
Chinamen mounted to the teat beside
the driver.
To Baffle ths Devil.
The route to Westvlew Cemetery
was changed to permit the procession
to pass tha meeting place of the Free
Masons on Hunter street. Twenty car
riages filled with Chinese were In line.
As the cortege psssed through the
streets the man on the hearse threw
Into the air bit* of tissue paper per
forated with hundreds of tiny poles.
There were to delay the devil in hla
pursuit of the spirit of Joe Lee, for
his majesty must jpass through each’of
the perforations and this would re
quire much time and ennble the spirit
to reach tho heavenly gates before the
devil could overtake It.
At the open grave In Westvlew a
curious crowd of hundreds waited 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 smoke rising through the
sunlight while the words of the Chris
tian service were repented. Each
friend of the departed Joe Lee threw a
handful of earth upon the coffin and
turned away. Tha body of Joe Lee
had been placed safely In Its last bed.
his spirit was on Its way to ths un
known and the followers of the two
religions were content In their own be-
lief as to Its destination.’ As the crowd
departed from the rapidly filling grave
one thoughtful watcher repeated softly
the words of that old Persian pessimist
who has set so many wondering:
"There waa tha veil through which I
could not see,
There was the door to which I had no
key."
