steadfastly declared that no one ex-
cept himself knew of his preconceiv-
ed determination to Stay the man
who had exposed his sins of the past.
No effort was made in the statement
as made public to associate any other
person with Haas attempt, but it is
believed the prisoner, in the seclusion
early hours of the morning subjected
to a more rigorous examination.
Hiram Johnson and Matt /. Sulli
van, two OF the attorneys who spoke
at the gathering last night, announc-
ed that they had offered their ser
vices to the district attorney as SUBJ
stitutes for Mr.. Heney. While mod
Grafton was counseled by all the
speakers, there were, at the outset,
unmistakable expressions of hostility
TO the courts and predictions that
Haas would not lack for aid in his
defense
charged directly that the crime must
have been inspired.
Rudolph Spreckels, the millionaire
banker, who financed the prosecution
of the supervisors and Ruef. and who
has been in frequent attendance at
the trials, said:
1T is time that drastic measures
were used to suppress the reign of
lawlessness."
Carefully Planned.
The police are today convinced that
Haas had planned carefully his at
tempt upon Heney's life. In the base
ment of ais home are the marks of
numerous bullet holes, indicating
that some person had been firing at
a target and neighbors have been
found who recall having heard the
reports Of revolver shots at various
times during the past fortnight.
Added to this is the statement of the
witnesses in the court ROOM, OF whom
there are dozens. Attorneys and news

all appear to have noticed Haas when
he was within few feet of his IN
suspeeting victim. Two private de-
tectives assigned to Heney as body
guards were within ten feet of him,
and while both observed the mans in
tention in time to spring for his ex-
tended arm, they We're too late Haas
had the weapon within a few inches
it is the danger of blood poison from
burned powder or other matter II the
wound that is most feared.
Prior to his committafto San Quen-
tin in 1888, Haas was employed as
travelling salesman by Schl 9siuger
and Green, wholesale liquor dealers
of this city. On his first t-ip he was
given accounts aggregating $1,000 for
collection and the testimony showed
that he turned in two fictitious orders.
The collection OF s275 in San BerEar-
dino, Cal, for which no accounting
was ever made, led to a warrant for
his arrest on a charge Of embezzle-
ment. Haas had disappeared before
the embeZzlement became known, and
was arrested nearly n year later IN
Philadelphia. While he at first con-
tended that he was entitled 10 the use
Of his collections in order to cover
expenses, he pleaded guilty in the SUI
perior court and was sentenced to two
years in the penitcntiary.

posed a few weeks ago after Haas had

guilt or innoncence of Abraham Ruef.
now In the midst Of his third trial for
bribery.
Early today Mr.. Heney was sleep
Ing soundly On the Lane hospital,
where he was taken after preliminary
treatment had been given in the city
hospital. The last statement issued
by his physicians declares that the
patient has a good chance to re-
cover"
Danger From Blood Poison.
The greatest danger appears to- be
from blood poisoning and today an ef-
fort viii be made to locate the bullet
and the exact course of the wound.
Mr.. Heney was shot in the right side
OF the head as he leaned forward over
a table. The bullet entered half an
inch in front of the right ear, ranged
downward and is lodged somewhere in
the muscles On the left side of the
neck. In the opinion of the doctors
his constitution is sufficiently strong
TO add TO his chances of recovery
Haas, who did the shooting, was
last night confined in the county Jan
at Ingleside. several miles from the
center of the city. Abraham Ruef. or
de=ed into custody by Judge LAWYER
Immediately after the Shootin, is also
a temporary prisoner in the Jail.
Spread Rapidly.
The news that Heney had been shot
spread RAPIDLY through the city, even
before the afternoon papers reached
the residence sections of the city and
the people of every walk in life hur-
ried to swell the crowds in the down
town district. Few of those in the
street knew what disposition had been
made of Haas, who was spirited out
of a rear door of the city prison while
the crowds stood in front, and driven
by circuitous route to the island
county jail. Another subterfuge en-
abled the officers TO take Ruef out of
the city without attracting attention.
Morris Haas, he man who shot He
ney, Is q native of Wurtemburg, Ger
many, and has resided here since 1875.
He is 4S years old and for nearly ten
wears. or ever since his release from
the penitentiary, where he served
two-year sentence for embarrassment of
his employers funds, he has been en-
gagged in the retail liquor business. In
the course Of lengthy statement
made to the police after his arrest,
the prisoner declared:
'Heney pronounced his own death
sentence the moment ne denounced
me in the court
This as far as appears from the
facts now made public, appears 10 be
the attitude Of Haas.
He alludes constantly to the shame
and disgrace he has experienced since

The South and the Flag.

The Atlanta Constitution gives an In
teresting account OF an incident which
occurred last week In connection with
the graduation exercises at Brenau Col
lege Conservatory ut Gainesville,
Georgia. Participating in the Estates
Day" exercises were members OF the
student body representing twenty-six
states, including all of those in the
South. State flags, state colors, state
songs, bits of state history were features
of program which was fittingly con-
cluded with the formation by the entire
student body, dressed to suit, of the flag
of the United States, while from this
human flag came the swelling chorus of
the national anthem, "My Country, IT'S
of Thee" The Constitution, In COM
menting editorially upon this significant
incident, has this to say for the South
about the flag of the Union:
"Of the instructive and inspiring ele-
ments of such an occasion there can be
no question, and the example of Brenau
might we'll be followed by every school
in the country, from the little log school

city institution with its many grades
and teachers.
ut is SO in the North, in the East and
in the West. There the lesson of the
flag, the instilling of national pride, the
seedlings of patriotism, while apparently
incidental, are, in reality, a part of the
curriculum. From Maine to Oregon
there is no school house too humble or
too great to make the flag an essential
element of its teaching.
"We can conceive of no good reason
for neglect of the flag in the schools of
the south. 1t is the South's flag as it Is
that of the North, the East and the West;
it is the flag of all the nation.

thoughts which come from out its folds.

lection. 1t terminates aiove of country

lesson of the flag. Brenau has set an
example that should be followed by

The following remarkable statement
was recently made by l.. I. Cooper. 1t
concerns the preparation which has been
so widely discussed throughout the
country during the past year, and has
sold in such enormous quantities in lead
ing cities:
at is now a well-known fact that
wherever | have introduced my New Dis
covery medicine, hundreds of people
have brought internal parasites, or tape
worms, to me. In many cases these peo-
pie did not know the nature of the para
site, and were consequently extremely
nervous until explained the matter to
them. In some cities so many have had
this experience that the public generally
became alarmed.
~ take this opportunity of explaining
what these creatures are, and what l
have learned about them in the past.
"Tapeworms are much more common
than would be supposed. l venture to
say that ten per cent. of all chronic stom-
ach trouble, or what is known as run
down condition, is caused by them. An
individual may suffer for years with one

The Greatest Park In the World.

Writing of 1.-THE Greatest Nation on
Earth" William George Jordan says:
"Uncle Sam set apart royal pleasure
ground in northwestern Wyoming and
called it Yellowstone National Park. To
give an idea what its size, 1912
square miles, really means, let us clear
the floor of the park and tenderly place
some of the great cities of the world
there close together as children do their
blocks. First put in London, then
Greater New York, Chicago, Philadel-
phia, Paris, Boston, Berlin, st. Louis,
Hongkong, San Francisco and Washing
ton. The floor of the park would then
be but half covered. Then lift up Rhode
Island carefully, so as not to spill any
of it's people, set it down, and press in
the West Indies, and even then there are
200 square miles left. No equal area in
the world has such diversity of natural
phenomena and such magnificent seem
cry. 1t is a marvellous land of streams
and waterfalls, geyers and hot springs,
mountains, canyons, lakes and forests of
