By PAUL E. WILKES,
Spocfal to The. Dcurglau.
Vftldostu, C«a., Dec. C.—Dcnplte the
dying statement of A If Moore thnt the
Dunlins boys were present when the
tyiilriren of \V. Id. farter were mur
dered on tho night of Juno 12, 1905, and
that It was Milton Rawlins who fired
the fntnfl shots, sympathy for the lads is
widespread her
Now that old man J. G. Rawlins and
the negro who contracted to do the
bloody work are dead—dead by * the
hangman's noose—most of the people
seem satisfied/ Among the. hundreds
of people who crowded the streets yes*
terday before and after the execution,
an expression against the boys was
rare. The people seemed to prefer be
lieving the dying statement of Rawlins
than that made by Alt Moore.
It was Rawlins’ word against that of
thp negro and the white man’s word
carried more weight.
A Religious Fanatic.
Alf Moore was fanatical on religion.
He could not say a doxen words In
making his final address to the crowd
without quoting in a rambling fashion
from the Bible. It Is true that he In
sisted that the boys were present when
the murder took place, but somehow or
other the people hesitated to believe
that boys so frank as are Milton, Jesse
and Leonard could deliberately murder
llttlt* children In the dead of night.
They preferred to believe the negro
more capable of such foul work.
Then, too, the final statement of the
father of the boys had the ring of truth
in It. He told the people he was on the
threshold of death and would not He
with death staring him in the face.
And time and again he declared most
positively that his boys were at home
In bed when Alf Moore set out on his
mission of death.
That the execution has made a deep
Impression on the people here there is
little doubt. AII yesterday afternoon
after the hanging took place it was the
subject for street corner conversations.
It was the sole, topic to bo talked about.
Prominent men declared .the boys
ought not to hang. They said they
should be commuted and some even
went so far ns to declare thut they
should have a new trial.
Want to Sava Boys.
Two of tlje most prominent and In-,
tluential Lowndes county officials tolu
me they would take steps immediately
after the execution to have the prison
commission commute the sentences of
the boys. Both of these men hav<
MILTON RAWLINS. JESSE RAWLINS.
The two elder Rawlins boys are sentenced to hang at Valdosta Friday
unless tho pardon board commutes their sentences to life imprisonment.
Leonard Rawlins, the youngest boy* is now serving a life sentence.
Declines to S »y if He

New York, Dec. 6.—The fixet that
Stuyveaant Fish, the recently deposed
president of the Illinois Central, does
not deny the report that he Is to he
made president of the Southern, to suc
ceed the late Samuel Spencer, gives
that report the strongest credence In
the railroad world.
'A reporter saw Mr. Fish at his home
In East Seventy-eighth street today
and put to him this question:
“Is It true that J. P. Morgan has
broached to you the matter of the va-
cant presidency of the Southern rail
way?"
"If I were you," answered Mr. Fish,
should let the story pasB for tho
present.”
"Well, Is it true that you discussed
the proposition with Mr. Morgan with
in the last few days or hours?"
"If It were true," answered Mr. Fl.ll,
1 could not and would not tell you at
this time. It would be manifestly poor
form for me to speak of that s
thing at preaent.”

MCCLURE'S ALLEGED PICTURE OF
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE LEADER,
Photograph of Mrs. Chevaillier of Texas Adver
tised as Mrs, Mary Baker Eddy,
THE PORTRAIT DISCREDITED.
Sworn Statements to Prove That Magazine Picture Is Not a Likeness of Mrs. Eddy.
Town of Clifton, Ariz.,
Swept by Raging
Waters.
i Boston, Dec. 4, 1906.
Alfi-aj Fallow. General Manager of
the Committee on Publication for the
fc'hrlstlan Science Church, today gave
out tho following statement:
"McClure’s Magazine, in the December
Issue, published n picture which Is rep
resented as a phntograptvof Mrs. l£ddy
taken In 18S2. It la not a picture of
Mrs. Kddy, but in a IlkenexK of Mrs.
Sarah t'.» Chevaillier, who formerly
lived In Boston, and who died In Cali
fornia two sears ago. tThls fact Is In-
conlestlbly established by the affidavit
of Mrs. Chevallller's sop, which appears
In tills article. Wo have In our pos
session the picture of Mrs. Chevaillier,
which we have Just received from her
son and which Is an exact duplicate of
the one used t>y McClure's.
In connection with this portrait,
McClUre's publishes au editorial an
nouncement of a story relating to the
Rev. Mary Baker O. Kddy, tne Dlacov-
erer and Founder of Christian Science.
It Is stated that as a result of a careful
investigation (heir story Is probably
’ns near absolute accuracy as history
ever gets.' Indeed the Introducllon In
question lays great stress upon the ac
curacy of Its proposed history. Again
It Is said: 'Practically no assistance
can be obtained from Christian Scient
ists themselves,' that 'she (Mrs. Kddy)
refuses to be consulted personally on
the inuln facts of.her own life.*
It should be stated that according
to the custom, McClure's representative
who applied to Mrs. Kddy for an Inter
lew. was referred to the Committee on
Publication, who Is specially appointed
for the purpose of rendering any as
sistance in his power to the‘representa
tives of the public press who may be
gathering dalu on the subject of Chris
tian Science and Its Lender.
"In a conversation with members of
McClure's staff, several months ago. I
informed them that if they would sub
mit their data to me I would be pleased
to assist them In their verification, giv
ing them as my reason that there were
documents In circulation and rumors
afloat which were not genuine. They
have not availed themselves of my of
fer.
"Notwithstanding the facts which we
have stated, we And In this editorial
announcement a picture of another
portrait of 'Mrs. Mary lin
ker G. Eddy,' taken In. Boston In. MSS.
"he picture does not . In any point re
semble Mrs. Eddy. v'
"On November • 8th. and before tb-
December number of 'McClure's was
placed on the news stands, _b wcoto to
the Managing Editor, of .McClure's,, ap
prising him of this error, but received
no reply. My letter follows:
" ‘I have Just been looking at the ad
vertisement which you have In Rl,lg-
way’s of the 17th Inst. In the center
of the page Is a picture which I assume
Is represented as a portrait of Sirs. Ed
dy. I hasten to Inform, you that this
Is npt a picture of All's. Eddy! there la
nothing about It that would remind one
of her. I have seen Mrs. Eddy fre
quently during the past twenty-two
years and know her face well enough
to draw a likeness of It If I were an
artist,—therefore I speak from positive
knowledge.
"It-was my fear that you might bo
imposed upon by Just such counter
feits that Impelled ms to suggeat that,
your manuscript relating to Mrs. Eddy.,
be submitted to someone thoroughlyi
posted ‘ concerning the events 'of her
life.'
"Directly underneath the McClure
portrait Is a modern signature of Mrs.!
Eddy, which might give the Impres
sion that it had been written on this
photograph by Mrs.. Eddy.' This, Of!
courec, could not possibly be true since,
the portrait Is not a likeness of Mrs.
Eddy and never was In her hands. Be-'
neath one of the genuine portraits np- ■
pended to this statement, we publish a;
facsimile of Mrs. Eddy's signature as'
she wrote It In 1883.
’’When called upon to produce the
photograph from which the picture was
made, and to give the name of the pho- 1
tographer, the editor of McClure's de
clined, saying he would give what In
formation he could a few days later.
"I then went to work to obtain evi
dence by which I could, disprove Mc
Clure's allegation, and show the,public
that another face had been eubijtituted
for that of Mrs. Eddy.

Phoenix. Aria., Dec. 5.—Private rail
road dispatches received state that 60
lives were lost at Clifton yesterday In
flood caused by a bursting dam that
swept Trout Camp completely, de
stroying the business section of Clifton,
wrecking the smelting plant of the
Arlaona Copper plant and tearing up
miles of track of the railway.
Clifton which has about 3.500 peo
ple. lies In a narrow valley near the
eastern line of Arlaona. Through the
town winds the Ban Francisco river,
the largest affluent of the Ollu.
The poorer element lives. In Chase
Creek canyon, a peculiarly dangerous
situation In times of high waters.

Others spoke Ir. the same strain and
wanted to sign a petition. It is appar
ent that the prison commission would
not displease the great majority of the
people of Lowndes If the lives of these
condemned boys were spared. The pa-
thetlc appeal made by their father Just
before he marched to his death—his
appeal to his neighbors to take rare of
the boys—will not soon be forgotten.
Those who saw can never forget the
scene In the little Lowndes county Jail
when J. G. Rawlins, with the tears
streaming down his face, begged for
his boy* and-protested that he and Alf
aioore alone were reaponslble for the
bioodv work. But even then he denied
that he ever meant for the negro to
harm the children.
For the mother of these boys and her
two daughters there Is widespread
sympathy. Tne sight of mother and

TO DEATH IN WRECKAGE.
Blsbee. Arlx., Dec. 5.—One of the
worst storniR In the history of Clifton
came down the San Francisco river and
Chase creek.
From seven to twenty persons is the
report of the loss of life. Mrs. Joseph
Thorn was caught in a falling building
and killed. The other members of the
family had narrow escapes.
One of the saloohs which was washed
away carried several men Into the tor
rents and they are believed to Jiavv
been drowned,
A woman and a child were lost In a
small restaurant, which was dashed to
pieces in the flood. A number of small
frame buildings In which people wero
known to be living also were destroyed,
and it Is feared that a number of per
sona perished ' "
The financial loss cannot be esti
mated.
PLANTS MAY SHUT DOWN
FOR WANT OF FUEL.
Globe, Aril., Dec. 5.—AU railroad
communication with thla city la cut off
for a week at leaat by the carrying
away of the bridge over the Gila river,
near San Carlos. Passengers and mail
may be transferred In a few days, but It
may' be much longer before freight can
arflve here.
The Old Dominion Company has a
three-weeks’ supply of fuel, but other
companies operating here may have to
close on account of the shortage of oil.
It is believed that there Is enough fuel
and provisions In the city to prevent
any famine.
