been neither granted nor denied.
When Col. Bromwell's attention was
called to the statement of DR.. Guthrie
that he had held services in Iowa Circle
two Sundays ago without interference.
Col Bromwell said he did not know of
it. and added that the only reason he
was permitted to do so was because
the Waterman. who has several parks to
look after, happened to be absent at the
time and did not know what was going
on.
"A morning paper says l charge the
superintendent of police with error in Is
suing the permit to Dr. Guthrie" said
Col BromweI. That statement is an
error itself. What / did say was that
the permit issued by the superintendent
OF police had been evidently misunder-
stood as authorizing the holding of OPEN
air services In Iowa Circle. when. in fact.
it was simply general police license to
hold services in the streets
Upon learning definitely this Afternoon
permit for the holding of religious serv-
ices In parks. DIR. Guthrie stated he would
appeal to Col Bromwell for a permit for
the Iowa Circle services.

WOMAN THREATENS GLENN.
Georgia's Anti-Beauty Leader, Vic
tim of Bachelor, Has Home Troubles.

ATLANTA. July 20.-Because of angry
letters from heads of feminine organiza-
tons and threats by irate women. George
Glenn, who introduced in the legislature a
measure to protect men from the blan-
dishments of women. has appealed to the
house for protection, asking that he have
as permanent escort the sergeant-at-
arms.
Mr.. Glenn declares his life has been
threatened, his nights made sleepl-ss and
his home life married by the jealousy of
his wife at the continued arrival Of GUAM
titles Of mail in feminine handwriting
And ! was inveigled into introducing
this bill by my bachelor friend from Tai
bot county, who has been bombproof
against all the wiles and Establishments of
the female sex. and therefore not enjoying
the miseries of married life. nor having
been murdered since this bill was intro
duced Hhere being no difference between
getting married and murdered.
i have. the courage of my convictions.
however, and purpose to insist on the
passage of my bill. which proposes to fur
nish men with facts. not figures, holding
in mind the words of Shakespeare that
beauty unadorned is adorned the most i"
Mr.. Glenn declares his bill Is practically
the same as an old statute passed in Eng.
land under Charles II. and says such a
law is as much needed now as it was
then.

GRoCERS NOT CRITICISED.
Central Labor Union Merely Seeks
to Enforce Sunday Closing.

The action of the Central Labor Union
recently in asking the Commissioners to
give their assistance in the Sunday clos
ing movement for grocery stores should
not be taken as condemnation of the
grocery keepers by the labor leaders
This statement is made by John Riggles
of the union. The union. he said. does
not allege that grocers are not obeying
the pure food law.
The action was taken after a request
by the grocery clerks" said Mr.. Riggles
In a statement to a Star reporter this
afternoon. 'All of the first-class grocery
stores close Sundays. but when a store
across the street from a frst-class store
keeps open it has tendency to make the
proprietor of the large store insist upon
his clerks staying on duty in his estab-
lishment We do not want to condemn
the grocers: we only want the stores
closed Sundays and the clerks TO get away
for days rest"
