MAGNET IN TROUBLE
Chicago JswsIsr DrIsgs Suli
 For Goods Purchased.


 Mrs Annie Baylor, alias "The Georgia Magnet" is again in trouble with alleged creditors. The plaintiff in the case this time Is Herbert l.. Joseph of Chicago who claims S532 for Jewelry such as diamond rings, pins and things he sold her. The creditor Is represented by Attorney J. x. McGrath and the Magnet" by Attorney w. E. Monagan. Her de- fense is that the goods were recejv- ed by one of two other women who for years have been posing as the genuine Georgia Magnet" She claims she was far from Chicago the week the goods were sold to her as alleged, and though several photo- graphs have been identified as her, she insists she is not the original. The idea of her ever buying jewelry and not paying for 1t is absolute nonsense. She who played before the crowned heads of Europe, not paying her bills! Nonsense! If she could not pay her bills, she would like to know how she could afford to adopt about thirty-six children here and there throughout the country. didn't one boy cost her almost $2,00O in Seattle, Wash, with his pranks and didn't she pay it without mur- mur. Yes, and gladly would pay more, she said. During the hearing her married life was brought out and she admitted that a certain man got divorce from her a few years ago but he was never, never her husband, and never again.
