ing about he and HoOu, or they
would put him where he would not
talk. Mr.. Elliott said:
Go ahead and try II you want
to. / am out now where l can de-
pend on myself. I can tell the
truth and stick to it and IL you
make any trouble out of that for
me you are welcome to try"
Glider said: Il don't want my
name to get into the papers,"
TO which papa replied: when
get ready to put your name in
the papers l will give you big
name. And to elders offer of
friendship papa said: II don't
want you for a friend; you've done
me a wrong and | Will not forget
it,"
On the last Monday in March,
Mr.. Elliott found Rosie at the home
of Arthur w. Miles, a blacksmith,
S525 Fiske, where we believe she
had been placed by Glider and
Hood. Papa wanted her to come
home, but she refused. She was
lying on a sofa and professed to be
recovering from a serious illness.
1t was the first time we had seen
her for weeks. Later both Of us
went to the house together to see
her, but were refused admittanc.
While at work papa did not wor-
ry about Rosie SO much, but as
soon as he came home and was
about in the neighborhood, where
familiar scenes and the questions
of neghbors kept Rosie's case con-
stantly before him, it preyed on
his mind continually until he has
about made up his mind that he
will get away from the police per-
secution that so long followed him
and find some place where the
tragedy Of the last few months will
be alleviated by new scenes and
new responsibilities. FOR papa's
long Imprisonment in Jail and loss
of employment due to it has taken
every cent we have. We've given
some of our best efforts to help
Rosie, and IL she cannot realize
and appreciate this after all these
years, we are helpless, and can
only permit the present influence
to continue, confident that Rosie
will finally be abandoned by these
policemen, and the powers above
them, and will have to come her
self before the bar which melted
out so gross an injustice to her
father in his efforts to save her.

MRS. ELLIOTT'S
20 APPEAL TO CHIEF

Glider was one of these.
He was taken before Judge Mann
and after being held in Jail several
days was turned loose. with a re-
guest that he return in 10 days.
ELLIOTT forgot the exact day on
which he was to report back and
Judge Mann sent a bench warrant
after him, which was served by
Glider. But Judge Mann turned
him loose when he found him sober.
During this confinement in Jail
visited Judge Mann and told him
that "The wise ones that put the
papa in Jail should be there them
selves instead Of him." and gave
him all the facts in the case.
Judge Mann replied: 81 am keep
Ing him there for his own good. If
we let him out he will go back to
drink again and cause us trouble"
To which l remarked: Papa
never drank until trouble came. He
was sober for IA years and would
still have been sober but for the
rotten policemen on your force,
which led our girl astfay."
After | presented 1t in this plain
way to Judge Mann he called in
Elliott and said that if he would
promise to keep sober he would let
him out, and the old man was re-
leased. We found after Elliott was
out that the policemen still pur-
sued the girl. They kept running
and phoning after her to the home
or Mrs. Davis on the north side.
where she worked until she lost her
place. During all of this time she
visited us regularly and on one &C.
caslon was taken back to where she
worked in buggy by Officer Hood.
This she told me herself.
Rose next went to work for Mrs.
McAdams, Monroe and Augusta,
where she remained several weeks.
Along about Thanksgiving time a
letter came for her and Mr.. Elliott
telephoned out that it was here
and asked what she wanted done
with it. She requested him to take
the letter to her and he went out
that evening. When he called at
the door the lady of the house
would not let him see the girl. He
insisted on going in to deliver the
letter, whereupon she called the Of
ficer on the beat and had him ar
rested. The officer turned him
loose after hearing his story. It
made papa mad to be arrested for
nothing and he Immediately re-
turned to the McAdams house in an
effort to see and talk with Rosie and
found Officer Glider there. He
again started to enter protest and
the girl said to Glider: Take this
man and put his where he won't
bother us two any more"
II Rosie told me he threatened them
with a revolver, but none was found
on him at the station. The next
Monday night Glider came to see
me and said. Il suppose you know

ANIMALS LAUGH AND CRY AT THEIR
REUNION

If anyone believes that animals
cannot laugh or otherwise express
emotion they ought to have been
at Pacific avenue and Mcclellan
street yesterday when there was a
big reunion of lions, elephants,
pumas, leopards, tigers, bears, kan
garoos, seals and other beasts of
the forest and jungle, which,
though all members of the AL G..
Barns big three ring wild animal
circus, have separated ever since
the close of the tenting season last
fall
"Ah there, Ruth" parked the big
riding seal Dick, a grin overspread-
ing his face, as he caught sight
of the big elephant, his former com
panion on the road. The two had
been separated during the winter
both being in vaudeville but on
different circuits. How did your
act go in Frisco?"
'Hello, Dickie," trumpeted Ruth,

against me on account of that, be-
cause | was only doing my duty, and

daughter. Rose is good girl, isn't
she?" he asked.
told him she was good girl
to work. He also said Mr.. Elliott
was making disturbance when he
arrested him, but after papa was
out and faced Glider he admitted
papa was not making any disturb
ance.
Mr.. Elliott's hearing was set for
December "a, 1909. Glider was the
only witness for the state. Judge
Mann said, Il have looked into this
matter and there is no use for fur
Their hearing" He put Elliott I'M
der a $500 peace bond and sent him
to the county Jail to stay his time
out. Papa's hearing was set for
1870, but instead it was held at
1890 in the morning. Glider did
not want Rosie and RS. McAdams
there.
When Rosie left the home of Mrs.
McAdams she came TO our house
one Sunday morning. Before she
had time to take off her wraps
Glider was at the door. He said.
Il saw you get off the car and fol-
lowed you over. Hood Is awful sick.
l have telephoned for the doctor.
Can't you come over right away.
begged Rosie not to go, but she
went anyway and stayed for over
two weeks. l told papa Rosie was
with the policemen and he told me
to go and tell Judge Mann. l went
to the police Judge and started to
tell him the circumstances and he
said, Hold on minute before you
tell me any more and l will call
Sullivan"
He called him over the phone
three times, but Sullivan was busy
and did not come, so Judge Mann
sent me to Sullivan with one of
his clerks and told me to tell the
chief what I had told him.
After l gave Sullivan the facts in
the case he said that "a police
man was funny man that would
take girl to his room to live with
him." and sent an officer after
Rosie. She had just gone over to
our house and the olIicer found her
there. This officer said he first
went to the room on East Sprague
and told Glider that Sullivan had
sent him after the girl. Glider
turned pale, thereby admitting his
guilt.
The officer brought Rose to the
police station. The girl was terri
bly, angry when she saw me there,
for she knew that what l had to
tell was the truth. The chief took
her into his private room and ques-
toned her and then SAID he could
get nothing out of her and called
me in. The chief asked me if
had protested against Rosie's &C.
lions and l said l had. He asked
her if it was not poor plan to
give people room to talk about her,
and she said she did not care.
After papa was released Glider
called on him the following Sunday
and put out his hand to shake. Mr..
Elliott would not shake hands with
him. Glider said that he hoped
papa would have no bad feelings
against him.
In March Glider again called on

Fire Damages ]. A. jones'
Stock

About eleven o'clock last night
fire was discovered in the back end
of the dry goods store, of ]. A. Jones,
on Pine St. and what threatened to
be a CONFEDERATION in the heart of
the business district was checked
in the nick of time by the fire de-
partment.
Policeman Osborne was attracted
1.-THE. back end of the store land
discovered the blaze through the
window. The office desk and fur
niture was ablaze and fortunately
the policeman stumbled across a
garden hose ready attached and with
less than moments delay he had
the small stream playing on the
blaze at short range but the fire
was entirely too hot for that kink OF
a stream and the prompt arrival OF
the fire department and the well
directed work promptly executed
saved Fitzgerald a considerable fire.
The large stock Of dry goods was
greatly damaged by the heat and
smoke before the arrival of the de-
partment and flooded with water
afterwards. The stock is badly
damaged but well covered with in
surance.
The fire originated in all probable
ity at the heater near the corner of the
office where the blaze was first dis
covered. Mr.. Charles Orser who
was in charge during the absence
of Mr.. Jones who, with his family
was visiting in Broxton after just
eating supper at the Greek Ameri-
can Restaurant and returned to the
store at the time the fire was dis
covered.
Miss Mae Orser who was sleep
ing up stairs was almost overcome
with suffocation.
The store is closed, awaiting
the arrival of Mr.. Jones and the in
surance adiusters.

Dear Sir:

were so unfortunate as to be my
pupils in the little pine slab school
house in old Shack Town" 1t may
be that there are some of the Colony
Pioneers who remember the little
SHACK" which undeservedly bore
the appellation of a school house
and there may be some who have
not forgotten the youthful school
master who taught within its walls.
In the light of later experience in
the public school work / regard my
pedagogical efforts in that little
school house as an educational fail
ure SO far as the pupils were con-
cerned, but eminently beneficial to
myself.

of poet in that organization, but |
