English and had practically no de-

was innocent He also stated that
Taber, with whom he sared his blank
cts, had robbed him Of all his mon

he fired the shot which struck Taber
in the leg. The wounded man then
invented the story to protect himself
from arrest for robbery.
1t is probable that Taber, il he can

NOTING AMUSING
ABOUT HIS JOKE
ATLANTA MAN WROTE HIS WIFE
HE WAS ABOUT TO SUICIDE,
"5uT HE DIDN'T"

Atlanta, Dec. 21.--Mrs. w. A.
Graham, "a young Atlanta matron, has
been twice frightened into Mysteries
by her husband during the past two
days.
Yesterday morning she got note
from him indicating that he was gol
ing to commit suicide. She was pros
trated by the news, which she believ-
ed, and communicated to her friends
The police went to a deal of trouble
yesterday looking for Graham's boGy.
The wife had almost resigned herself
to the fact that the suicide was GER
tain.
This morning her telephone bell
rang. She answered it. The voice
at he other end of the phone was
that of w. A. Graham, her husband.
AS she chung to the wire, almost in
a faint from surprise, Graham in
formed her that he hadn't killed
himself. that he had no intention of
doing so, that he had been off on a
little trip to Chattanooga. and that he
would be home tomorrow
The family OF Mr.. Graham are mot
inclined to blame him. saying that he
wrote the suicide note while in an alb,
normal frame OF mind His frien6s,
however. crlticise him severely, and
the police department is literally
snorting its indignation.

BOSTON PREACHER RECOVERING
FROM DANGEROUS WOUND
Rev. c. ". T. Richeson, Accused Of
Murder, Not Seriously Injured.

Boston, Dec. 21.-Everything point
ed today to the rapid recovery of ReJ
Clarence V. T. Richeson, accused Of
the murder of Avis Linell, and who
mutilated himself in his cell at the
Suffolk county jail yesterday.
Possible blood poisoning is the only
element that stands in the way OF
Richeson's recovery, and that, the
surgeons say, is extremely unlikely.
Difference of opinion was expressed
in legal and medical circles today as
to whether the accused ministers
condition will permit him to appear
in court on January Is, the date set
for his trial.
Attorney William A. Morse, OF
Richeson's counsel, says he believes
his client will be in no fit physical
condition to undergo the ordeal of his
appearance in court so soon.
Sheriff Seavey has guards at Rich
eson's bedside every moment of the
day and night to prevent the prisoner
making any further effort to injurs
himself.

KILLED BY
ENRAGEO
STALLION

John Simmons, 73 years of age,
and n of the best known pioneers
of the Lost river country, was killed
by Harry Gwinn, a racing stallion
belonging to the Kinneys at the Kin
ney place just above the bridge at
Olene.
Just how the old man came to
arouse the ire Of the stallion is not
known. He was alone at the time,
the boys on the ranch having left him
for the time. About noon a neighbor
went to the place and found the old
fellow lying in the barn Lot in a ter
ribly mutilated condition with life
extinct. Appearances are that the
old mar took the stallion out of his
stall to water or exercise him, and
the horse either reared and kicked
him or jerked away and kicked him
downs Once down, the animal bit
and lacerated both arms badly from
the hands to the shoulders; both
sides of the head had large bruises
where the horse either hit him with
his heels or forefeet, in striking at
him. He also had a very bad bruise
over the heart, made by the animals
hoof, and one rib is thought to have
been broken by this blow.
The horse apparently became ter
ribly enraged at its keeper for some
a unknown. 1t is also evident

WOODROW
TALKS ON
ELECTIONS
POINTS OUT HOW NOMINATIONS,
ELECTIONS AND OFFICERS
ELECTED ARE CONTROLLED BY
THOSE WHO PUT UP THE COIN.

Minneapolis, May "a. Woodrow
Wilson in concluding a speech here
today said:
"A man can not get into office
without the expenditure of a good
deal of money, even if he confines
the expenditure to perfectly legiti-
mate objects. The sources of money
are, therefore, the sources of pOliti-
cal opportunity, and of power, and
those who supply the money can gen.
orally control the nominations-that
is to say, the selection of those who
are to exercise the powers of gov
eminent and law making. And OPP
portunity does not stop at election.
The men elected to office generally
hope to have some political future
and they find that future, in turn,
controlled at the source, so that those
who supply the 'sinews of war are
too able to exercise of command
which deprives representatives of the
people of their own independence.
ut is M of the happy circum-
stances of our time that the most in
telligent and progressive of our bust
ness men have seen the mistake as
we'll as the immortality of the whole
bad business, The alliance between
business and politics has been a bur-
den to them-an advantage, no doubt,
on occasiOn-but a very questionable
and burdensome advantage. 1t has
given them great power but has also
subjected them to a sort of slavery,
and a sort of subseryiency to leading
politicians. They are as anxious to
be freed from bondage as the country
is to be rid of the influences and
methods it represents. Leading bust
ness men are now becoming factors
in the emancipation of the country
from a system which was leading
from bad to worse.
THE business of the country ought
to be served by thoughtful and pro-
gressive legislation; but it ought to
be served openly, candidly, advanta-
geously, with a careful regard to let
ting everybody be heard and every
interest be considered, the interest
which is not backed by money as
we'll as the interest that is. This
can only be accomplished by some
simplification of our methods which
will center the public trust into
small groups of men who will not
lead by reason of legal authority or
the right to command but by reason
Of their contact with and amenability
to public opinion"
