LIFE ORLIBERTYOFMADINE, HARTJE WITNESS,MENACED 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. Old World Ritas.

Mich 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."
