a suspicion that Bridgie Weber took

brought him to New York Saturday.

GRACE TRIAL

PRIVATE
Court Rooms SmaIIness Makes
Rental of Auditorium the
Only Alternative.

officials of the superior court are de-
batting today the dilemma which faces
them in preparing for the trial of Mrs
Daisy Grace next Monday They must
either hire the Auditorium, which seats
6. geo persons, or exclude the public en-
iroly from the regular court room,
which win hold barely 100. 1t now is
considered probable that the latter
course will be adopted, and that no
persons will be admitted to the trial
excep, jurymen, witnesses newspaper
reporters and the attaches and officials
Of the court.
The Fulton county criminal court
Judge Raan's tribunal, now occupies the
Il fourth floor of the Thrower building at
PRYOR and Mitchell streets, one of the
two buildings leased by the county
while the new court house is under
construction The room barely sufIices
for the crowd which attends an or
binary criminal case, and it would be
Totally inadequate for the throngs
which would certainly try to force en-
trance TO the hearing of Mrs. Grace
It is reached only by a small elevator
and narrow winding stairway, and
the admittance of the general public
to the trial would undoubtedly jam the
building and result in accidents or
panic.
Tun c Waters, chairman of the
county commission, at first favored
leasing the great Auditorium and adj
hitting every one who desired to at
tend the trial He believed that some
method might be devised of charging an
admittance fee or taking UP a collec-
ton to defray expenses, the surplus to
be devoted to charity; but when he
found there was no legal way in which
to charge a fee he abandoned this idea

Orchids at Home.

Very few children think of growing
orchids on the window sill, but these
can really be raised at home with
very little trouble. Of course, the
flowers in bloom seldom cost less than
a dollar a piece and very often more,
but the plants are not so very expen-
sive. All that you need is a soap box,
covered with a piece of glass. Put
the plants in this and place the box in
a window where they can get plenty
Of sunlight. They won't require much
attention besides watering, and this
needn't be done often, as the glass top
will keep the water frcin evaporating
very rapidly. In winter, though, your
little dollhouse will have to be heated
in some way. The easiest way to do
this, if your house is lighted with
electricity, is to run wire into the
box and heat it with an electric light.

BEWARE OF FROZEN EGG
The Department of Agriculture Warns
Against Cheap Pies and
Cakes.

The department of agriculture has
issued a solemn warning to the Amer
lean public to beware Of 1.-The
fried frozen egg and the boiled
dried eggs"
These preparations, according to
the department, flourish around local
tiles where fresh eggs are hard to OBJ
tain. The department insists that the
traffic in these unlawful eggs has
increased greatly in the past few
years.
The warning states thar there is
no particular harm in freezing a
fried egg or drying boiled egg II the
same is done under the proper sani-
tary conditions and before the egg
obtains too venerable an age. 1t
warns the public further that such
eggs appear in cakes and pies, where
their inferiority may be successfully
concealed.

LETTER "CAME BACK"
AND THE QUESTION is, WHERE
HAD IT BEEN?
Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett Would
Like an Answer, if Any One viii
Reason 1t to Her Complete
Satisfaction.

Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett tells
terry of My Life And truly it is a
mystifying occurrence.
It was some time ago, while she was
living in England. One night she and
a friend were spending a quiet eve
ming by the fire, chatting, reading.
Mrs Burnett's friend, be it understood,
sat throughout the event in an arm
chair by the fire, and did not leave
her place until all was over, so that,
as in the case of conjurers, there could
have been mo deception" on her part.
Mrs. Burnett went in the course of
the evening to her desk and wrote
letter. She signed, folded, directed,
sealed and stamped it, and stood it up
against silver cigarette box on the
center table. Then she arose to go
and sit by the fire again.
Presently, wishing tie letter post
ed, she started to take steps toward
having it mailed. She looked for it on
che center table, and the letter was
not there. She looked all over the
table IL vain. She rubbed her eyes
and looked again. She knew she had
stood that letter up against the silver
cigarette box, but it was not there.
No one had entered the room, no one
had left it; her friend had sat mo-
tionless by the fire. '"
Mrs. Burnett said to herself: II
know-sometimes ones eyes are held.
A thing may be staring one straight
in the face and not be seen. 1t may
seem to be masquerading as something
else!" And she began Systematically
examining each object on the table
separately, picking it up, naming it,
and setting it down again, to make
sure that it was itself and not the let
ter
rs this the letter? No, this is a
Dresden china bonbon dish. Is this It?
No, this is brass candlestick: this
is a magnifying glass; this is an ivory
paper cutter; this Is a carved wooden
box; this is rose jar; this Is an ash
receiver, and this, finally, Is silver
cigarette box, and there Is nothing
else on the table, and there is neither
hide nor hair of letter to be scent"
Completely at loss, Mrs. Burnett
strolled about the room to examine
other possible surfaces where the let
ter might have been placed, had it not
emphatically and Enthusiastically been
put upon the center table against the
cigarette box. She searched on the
mantelpiece, on her desk, on the pi-
ano, on the bookcase-no letter. In
encouragement she turned again, to
the center table for another hunt.
There stood the letter demurely lean
ing against the silver cigarette box,
exactly as she had placed it.
And that such things are possible,
and that they happen to such perfectly
sane, clear-eyed, level-headed and re-
liable people as Mrs. Burnett is per-
fectly credible. Have we not all had
similar experiences? And if they were
not possible, whence come the world
old beliefs in elementals, in mischie-
vous sprites, in elves 1nd brownies
who play pranks upon us poor, dull
mortals? Explain it how we may, that
is what happened to Mrs. Burnett.

WOULD HONOR MEMORY
OF GOV. CLARK And Wife
BGlated Recognition to Noted
Couple

Atlanta, Ga, June S.-Belated rec
ognition is about to be paid the mem.
cry of John Clark, once governor Of
the commonwealth of Georgia, and his
wife, Nancy Clark, in her lifetime
first lady of the state.
For three quarters of a century their
bodies have lain neglected in the
graves on the old Clark home in St
Andrews Bay, Florida. but now.
through the efforts of the Oglethorpe
Chapter Daughters of the American
Revolution, with the aid of patriotic
Georgians, the bodies of the famous
governor and his wife are both to be-
brought back to rest near the dome d
Georgia's state capitol.
Governor John Clark died in 1892
He was a brave soldier and vigilap,
statesman, as the pages of history
show. He has many surviving rela.
ives still identified with the life of
the state.
