Higdon Discusses Case

Former Sheriff Higdon. who was sheriff at the time Guy Coleman and his friend Strickland drank the pois- oned whisky and fell over dead while eating dinner at their boarding house at 2122 Fourth avenue. said last night: No, l can't give you any informa- tion on the Gunters arrest. I don't know thing about 1t. While I was in the sheriff's office we had several persons under suspicion, some women and some men, and we worked up cases against one or two of them that were very strong but it seemed impos- sible for us to get the necessary evil dence for good chance at conviction and so we never madesany arrests.
 "1 believe that Sheriff McAdory and his deputies have some good evidence or they would not have arrested the girl"
 Colonel Higdon, do you think this girl who is arrested has any connec- tion with the letters which you re- ceived shortly after the Coleman pois- oning from persons who said they were connected with the crime?"
 T haven't even an idea said Mir Hlgdon, but I think it would be very wise move for the sheriff's office to secure a sample of Miss Gunters' handwriting and compare it with one of these letters I have. I kept them all in my private files and could find them if wanted. I received several of these letters. but there is only one of them that ever appealed to me as be- ing genuine. The others merely asked how much reward we would give them for information and so on, but this one was different and l have always be- lieved that It was written by the per son who really sent the poison to Cole man. l know I put in many an hour working on that theory.
 Murphy Tells of Letters
 Detective William Murphy of the po- lice department, who worked with Chief Bodeker on the Coleman case. said: 'Yes, Chief Bodeker received several letters from persons perporting to know who killed Coleman or that they did it themselves, but I haven't the slightest suspicion that Miss Gunters is connected in any way with them. I don't know a thing about the evidence which the sher- riff may have against Miss Gunters.'

 Deputy Sheriff Irving Steele, who, with Deputy Hartsfield, went to Jacksonville week ago Sunday to arrest Miss Gun ters, said yesterday afternoon:

Sheriff McAdory Talks

Shriff Walter K. McAdory said: "Yes, the news of Miss Gunters arrest has tenn porarily blocked our plans. What will be the results I can't prophecy. I don't know
 We only wanted Miss Gunters as an accessory. Through her we meant to make some other. arrests. The news of ,her arrest gave these people the warn ing and they immediately left town. What the outcome of the matter will be remains to be seen.
 ''I held conference with Solicitor lief lin and Judge Frank Cahalan today I can't give out anything that was said. We will hold another conference in the morn ing What the plan of action will be has not yet developed.
 Miss Gunters' trial may be set for to- morrow 1 believe 1t will not be put off later than Tuesday. I cant give out anything about evidence we have against her or who the other parties are
 Coleman Was Engaged
 As is generally known Guy Coleman, a prominent lodgeman, and his friend, Steve II. Strickland, died December 20, at boarding house on Fourth avenue. in the death grip of a large dose of strych- nine which they are believed to have se- cured when they took a drink of whisky together a few minutes before. The whisky is supposed to have been sent to MT Coleman by someone whose motive was the taking of MT. Coleman's life. He was engaged to be married to Miss Belle MacEvoy and detectives and the sheriff at once began work on the theory that Coleman was murdered by some woman who was jealous and that Mir. Strickland was caught in the role of the innocent by stander.
 Many sensational reports were circu- lated after the murder but no arrests were made until last Tuesday night when Miss Gunters was arrested at Jackson vile. She arrived in Birmingham Sat urday noon and has since been under the custody of deputy sheriffs.
 Miss Gunters is undoubtedly a very pretty girl and has many friends in Bir- mingham She has been the object of great curiosity since her arrest Her parents live in Elberton. where her father runs a large cotton seed oil mill. Miss Gunters is q stenogra pher and attended school at Columbus. Ga.

For the last four years this pond

CARE IN HANDLING APPLES

Preventing Bruises While Pick

CBy 8. VAN SMITH.)

Few people realize the importance
OF handling apples with care while
picking. packing and marketing. Ap
Piles are bruised very easily. and es
pecially those varieties having a ten.
der flesh or skin. Bruises mean not
only an unattractive appearance. but
real waste Of fruit by having to
cut out the bruised tissue. Probably
the greatest damage from bruises
however, results from the fact that
the bruises furnish an entrance for
fungus or rot spores. These spores.
or fungus seeds" are as fine as
dust and float In the air. II they
happen to lodge on bruised or
broken spot on the apple, they take
root and grow and spread through
the apple. causing II TO rot. Wrap
ping or covering the apple may not
always protect II. as the spores may
have lodged on the apple before 1t
was picked. However. II the skin
and flesh OF the apple can be kept
intact and not bruised or broken.
there Is not much danger Of the fun.
gus or rot finding its way into the
apple.
To prevent bruising. apples should
not be dropped or thrown into a
bucket. box. or barrel. and in pour.

should be taken that the apples are
as close as possible to the bottom
OF the vessel In which you are plac-
ing them before the mourning begins.

New Santa Fe trail. which has been
designated as part Of the trans-con-

this highway IL said to be as smooth
as q city street. The route leads to
Pueblo. designated as the Pittsburg Of

works IN operation there; thence to
Colorado Springs and on to Denver.
Colorado people are pushing the
construction Of automobile highways
In the state and are looking to the
southern states to do the same, 20
that during the winter automobile
owners from that state can motor
through the south.
Colorado has $4,000 miles OF roads.
Of which 10000 are passable by auto
mobile and $500 miles are improved
roads. Good hotels and garages can
be found In every town IN the state
where the population exceeds 1000.
according to Information sent out
from the state highway commission.
From this same source It is learned
that Colorado expended $1.760. 900 ON
its roads In 1911. and will expend

District Judge Shackleford, to ex-
anime the records kept by Mrs.
Annie u. Downey, county treasurer.
Mrs Downey 10 serving her third
term in the Office Of county trees-

the best innovations made since her
regime began is that brought about
by enforcing the Law concerning de-
linquents. Mrs. Downey explained
that formerly taxpayers were not
charged interest until after June 20
and Dec. 81 of each year, whereas
the Law holds them delinquent and
chargeable after March l and Aug
ust l. The enforcement of the Law,
she says, caused some Inconvenience
