HUGE QUILT
UP TO GRAND JURY:
- PLEA OF MU
Another chapter In the case of Rob
ert E. Turnege, now a prisoner In the
Tower, charged with beating and at
tempting an assault upon Mrs. «Carrte
t*omHtock, of 36 South Humphries
Htreet, will probably be written Sat
urday morning, when the Fulton coun
ty grand Jury will meet.
That Turmige will he Indicted, the
police officials have little doubt, and If
this Is the cane, he will probably be
placed on trial in the superior court
before Judge Roan next week.
Ttimage Is still a prisoner In the
Tower, where he was placed .shortly
after Ills arrest. That Insanity will be
the plea of the defense Is generally
conceded, and Attorney Madison Hell
is now working along this line.
It is said by officials of the sheriff’s
office that Turnage’* father, J. \V. Tur-
nage, declares his son Is Insane, nnd
that he recites the fact that Ills two
daughters have for some time past been
afraid t»* remain in the house alone
with their brother.
Mrs. Comstock is recovering rapidly
from the injuries she received, and It
Is thought she will appear before the
grand Jury Saturday morning at 10
o'clock and give «defence against her
assailant.

“The Jeffersonian”.will be out Sat
urday.
And the way that Thomas E. Wat
son goes after Colonel Mann, of Town
Topics fame. Is enough to make even
the colonel sit up and take notice.
The foreword of "The Jeffersonian”
contains Mr. Watson’s Impressions of
Colonel Mann." It makes Interesting
reading.
"What Is the name without the
man?" asks Tom Watson. He relates
thfe "ugly dream” of his New York
i experiences.
The ogre of Watson’s bad dregm was
Colonel Mann. The substance of Mr.
Watson’s story Is that after getting
him Into the magazine venture with his
name as the chief asset, Colonel Mann,
with one 4*. Q. De Fra nee, fired him
out and seised the property. Hut the
spirit of it fled with Watson, as Watson
himself declares, and nothing hut the
corpse of the muguzlne remains In their
possession.
Mr. Watson says that after the mag
azine was started Colonel Mann made
several propositions that caused him to
smell a rut and size up tin* colonel as
"a grand old rascal.” But he stuck to
the mngazinc because Ills word was
publicly pledged. Mr. Watson says
that his salary of $600 a month was
never paid, but that he was willing to
go on working for nothing; he loved
the magazine so. But he would nit
stand for the Insertion in It of adver
tisements of Colonel Mann's various
publications. 8o he quit. Then Colon*!
Mann rushed into court, got a Judg
ment against the magazine for $6M't')
and sold It at jiherifTs sale to himself
"He actually had the sheriff to sell
my name and was n?s enough to buy it.
"Hut he did not buy me along with
the name, and he did not buy the spirit
of the magazine with the desks, the
lion safe and the trade name."
On the whole Mr. T^dtson thinks his
experiences with Colonel Mann have
done him good. He says:
"They have put Into me once more
that intensity of energy and purpose
which otherwise might never have been
mine again. What the spur I* to the
