sights of Savannah today following

President Taft smiled and said:
THE citizens of the District of Co

they do not have any votes"
President Taft scored a hit with
the banqueters when he praised Ty-
rus Cobb, the baseball player, recent
ly indicted in Toledo for stabbing a
hotel watchman. Cobb is a native
Georgian. In speaking of the ball
player, the president said:
"A gentleman who figures more
largely in Georgia than the presi-

available, restore him 10 the people
whom he loves and who love him.

Paris, Nov. 5.-Under terrific
fire of heartless, pitiless examina-
tion, showing no sign of mercy or
consideration for her sex, Madame
Marguerite Steinheil, "the red
widow" was literally submitted to
the third degree" in public today.
4 Defiant, dramatic, beautiful, dis
playing bravery and spirit, such as
few women possess, now pleading for
mercy, now striking back fiercely,
this wonderful woman, who has held
the attention of the world, today won
the pity of the French nation, and
sentiment here has turned in her fa-
ivor.
Paris is aghast at the cruel exhi-
bition In the court room, and ON
every hand can be heard condemna-

Judge de Wales, president of the
court, was infuriated at the appear
ance of Jean LeFebvre the actor,
who confessed in court yesterday,

assertion that he committed the
murder of Nine. Steinheil's husband
and step-mother, for which she is
on trial.
When put on a second examination
in prison 1t is announced that lie
Febvre broke down and said that
his confession was lie, and that he
made It through sympathy for the
defendant.
A picture OF Nine. Steinheil was
found in his pocket.
LeFebvre is being held, and a
thorough investigation of his story
will be made, despite his denial It
is generally believed that this denial
was almost forced, and was too read

seem set on convicting Nine. Stein

The examination has become an

The woman is being tried under
the Napoleonic code, which presumes
that a prisoner is guilty until inno-

the court are pressing this presump-
tion TO the bitterest extreme.

have centered on Sam Manning, the
man, who has had some
experience, having been mayor of Nc
Minnville several times and knows a
whole lot about public business that
comes before city council. He
stands for progressive policies and a
clean city, and would make a good

THE WORK OF THE STORM.

The West Indian storm which
visited us on Monday night. though
it did serious damage in our territory,
left US in much better condition than
the country to the south all the way
to the gull, therefore we should be
thankful.
There was little excuse for anyone
to be unprepared for the storm as
it had been predicted a year in ad-
vance and forccasted by the weather
bureau for days before it finally
broke over the land.
After awhile we may learn the wis
dom of gathering our crops when
they are ready for harvesting and
making other preparations for ward
ing off the results OF these tremend-
Gus elemental disturbances.
