Seven times since bis conviction in August, 1913, the lower and supreme courts of the State of Georgia refused to gant Frank a new trial or to set xside the verdict ; three times the sntence of death was passed gon him and twice appeals fvere made to the United States Sipreme Court, the . first being msuccessful and the second re- siting the same way. . The murder of fourten-year- dd Mary Phagan, a factory em- poyee, of Atlanta, Goa., which it first appeared to be a crime of aly local importance, eventual- ly developed into a casé of na- fion-wide interest. This was due in large part to the efforts of Frank and his friends to obtain him a new trial or annul-| ment of the verdict. Added in- trest in Atlanta was given the @se because of its having been interfered with a fair. ught into a municipal politi-| Judge Roan denied the al controversy, which involved | atacks on that city’s police and detective departments and wran- among factions in the city administration. n after the trial ended, th“! Gse came in for agitation which; $read all over the country. Mary Phagan was murdered pril 26, 1913, on a Southern kliday in observance of Confed-| fite Memorial Day. Shertly, €r noon of that day she was ¥en to enter the pencil factery, B Atlanta, where she ‘had been ‘Mloyed and where she went to| Stiin wages due her. Her body & found next morning in * the ement of the factory, with a ®rd tied about her neck. M. Frank, a young Jew, A college graduate and married, 0s¢ home had been in Brook- " N. Y., was superintendent of Be pencil factory. Three days ¢ the murder, Frank was ar- e on suspicion and on_May Frank and a negro watchman htht factory, Newt Lee, were ¥ the coroner for the Bad jury's action. Lee subse- tly was released. Sixteen s later “Jim”® Conley, a ne- SWeeper at the factory. b 2 confession to the police h_.“h‘fh he accused Frank of "ng killed the Phagan girl, i red he had helped dispose the body. Conley, who was ™ of the chief witnesses for ate at Frank’s trial, was MWicted as ap accessory after Murder in February, 1914 . Seitenced to one year's im- Oment.

To review that action, appli- cation was made first to Justice Lamar, then to Justice Holmes and finally to the entire Su- {preme Court of the United ; i.\'mlcs, for a writ of error. All 364 held that the decision of the .Iszi(icurgia Supreme Court could not be reviewed because its ac- tion was based on grounds of procedure, namely, that the plea for setting aside the verdict should have advanced at the time the motions for new trial were made. Application was made Decem- Iber 19 to Judge Newman of the Federal District Court for i Northern Georgia, for writ of jhabeas corpus, alleging Frank Judge Roan died March 23, 1915, 'had been convicted without due in New York.

If Scoops can hold up his end with the stick he is going to be of great assistance to his team this season. The first racing bill to go before this session of the Illinois Legisla- ture was introduced in the Senate by Senator Denvir. The measure would lezalize raeing in Illinois and would f(‘reate a state racing commission to , be composed of three members of the 'State Highway Commission. The commission would have charge of all race meets, a percentage of which would go to the State. group of politicians, however. These men may feel that their pickings will be decreased by the amount of money that it is proposed to spend for the protection of the farmers of the state. The task of a plant in- spector involves a lot of hard physi- cal work and for this reason jobs un- der the mew law may not be very much in demand. The business men whom we believe to constitute the majority of the legislature should not be influencer by any selfish op- position to the crop pest bill. Every voter who wants to see ag- ricultural Florida prosper should im- mediately write or wire the mem- bers of the legislature who repre- sents him asking them to vote for the bill. It has been favorably re- ported by the argicultural and ap- propriations committees of both houses. The enactment of the meas- ure into law will be assured it the members of the legislature learn that their constituents demand it. Do not fail to communicate with you representatives and senators quickly. The vote is likely to be taken early this week so that it will be better to wire than to write.— Jacksonville Metropolis. This bill has since been passed by the Senate. NEW YORK DAY BY DAY. By Charles H. Adams. — New York Leads as Usual New York is not so badly off after all. Vital statistics proves the truth of this assertion. There is no city in that stae hat is quite so well off. The death rate in the metropolis for last year was 14 per 1,000 popula- tion, which the rate of the entire state including New York city was 14.6. Forty-one out of the 51 up- state cities have death rates higher than that which prevailed in the metropolis. Concerning births, the table shows that the Bronx is well imbued with Rooseveltian doctrines, for it produced 29.7 babies per 1,000 of its population, as against 23.7 for the entire state. The Craze for Buttons. Perhaps the most significatnt fea- ture of New York's fashion this ;year is the change in the feminine silhouette, No longer may it be com- pared to a string bean or a knitting- needle. It is rather a cone, and the woman who wear the small, round Glangarry hat looks not unliken the clothespin doll, staple article at church fairs. The narrow skirt is as definitely and emphatically out as the short skirt is in. There seems to be only one chojce between de- grees of widness. The circumfer- ence of every skirt has increased, but this increase is brought about in var- ious ways. Another thing notice- able is that the button factories have been working overtime. Buttons are everywhere. Dozens o f them are used on the suits. There is about two dozen buttons on the coat tails and some of the coats have a whole sleeve full.

McAdow, of Punta Gorda, chairman of the committee on ornamentals, is truly an ornamen- tal lady in every sense of the word. She has a charmingly pretty face and a sweet graciousness of man- ner, and the same artistic sense that has brought her to the head of or- namenatls in the Horticuitural As- sociation, impells her to ornament her own charming person” with the most tasty of apparel. She has a department in the Florida Grower, wiich she has creat- ed herself, and another honor that has just been added to her list is that of second vice-president of the State Horticultural Association. She has been living in Florida for eighteen years. “But,” she says, “I am the Buckeye brand with the Gil- lets and the rest of them.” Her gardens at Punta Gorda are really wonderful, and when it is known that they have sprung from barren sea sard, then their wonder increases. “It was nothing.” Mrs. McAdow declares, “but my spirit of combativeness that led me to see what I would do with that soil. The first three years 'I spent in Florida I hated it because it was not the tropical jungle 1 had pictured it. Then I decided to battle with it till 1 could make at least my part of it what I wanted it to be.” It was when she was a little girl that Mrs. McAdow first began play- ing and then working with flowers, Her father owned a large nursery, 80 both through inheritance and en- vironment she has been fitted to bat- tle with the sea sand until she has made it blossom like the jungle. *‘A terrible part of my life,” said Mrs. McAdow, “and one that has re- sulted in lots of good for lots of people, was the years I spent in Chicago. I was a school teacher, and circumstances cast me in a hideous part of the city in a school filled with little foreigners. My part of the room was partitioned off so I couldn’t even see the trees—the few that were to be seen throughout the windows. My scholars wene regular little savages, and 1 was miserable until T started window gardens. Well, before I left that school the principal had mde all the teachers do the same thing, and you have no idea what a civilizing effect it had on the children. From that we went to back yard gardens and now they are incorporatin reggular conserva- tories in to many of the schools of Chicago.” The first results Mrs. McAdow had from her labors over seas and of her Punta Gorda place were in huge castor bean plants. She shar- ed her treasures with her former pu- pils, sending them all seed for their gardens. The next she heard of them they were expecting to raise castor oil in their own back yards. This Lady of the Ornamentals so loves the beautiful that often on country automobile rides she carries quantities of flower seed, and scat- tters them along the way. So now in many places poppies and nastur- tiums and many other flowering monuments mark the path that she [ l ! had been, and give bright evidence | of one who is doing her share to make this old world a more beautiful place to live in.—Tampa Tribune.
