DON'T WANT WATSON
Democrat Leaders Urge Georgia to
Keep Him From Baltimore

Atlanta. Ga, May 22.-The Under
wood leaders in Georgia, who will
name the Baltimore delegates on May
90, have been warned by Democratic
national leaders that the presence of
Thomas Watson at the convention
would be fatal to the party and they
urge that the former Populist candi-
date for the presidency be kept at
home.
Charles F. Murphy, Norman Mack,
United States Supreme Court Judge
O'Gorman. Thomas Taggart and other
leaders have sent a personal messen-
ger here to urge that Watson be kept
off the delegation. They say that Wat
son, in his vicious attacks on Cardinal
Gibbons and other Catholic dignitaries,
will kill any candidate Watson favors
and that even if Watson's candidate
is not nominated his mere presence
at the convention would be hurtful. 1t
is generally admitted that Watson
carried Georgia for Underwood and
as Watson has announced his inten-
ton to head the Baltimore delegation
the message from the national lead
ers has embarrassed the Underwood
managers here.
No one can control Watson and it is
predicted the convention that selects
Baltimore delegates will be what Wat
son says he intends to make tired

ity and law perpetrated on DIR. Reit-
man and many Industrial Workers Of

alton for the removal of gall stones,
Miss Anna Loebenstein, a well known
young woman of this city; is alive and
practically out of danger. Miss Loeb
enstein owes her life to the quick
thought and action of the opera ting
surgeon, Charles G. McMullen.
DR.. McMullen had successfully per-
formed the operation at a local hos
pital and had just finished suturing
the incision in the abdomen when the
attending nurse told him that the pa

SHE WILL WEAR WHITE
Mrs. Astor Not to Wear Deep Mourn
ing for Husband.

New York, May 22.-Mrs. John ia
cob Aston, who, a t 10, was widowed
by the Titanic disaster will wear
white-not black-as mourning for
her husband.
Mrs. Aston wished-indeed, felt it
obligatory on her-to wear the deep
est mourning. But Mrs. Force, her
mother, believes she is too young to
drape herself with black cloth and
black crepe. Such funeral trappings
might depress her spirits, even affect
her health, at this, the most important
time of her life. For it is a fact and
established scientifically that prenatal
influence is very powerful.
So Mrs. Force has overruled her
daughters wish and has ordered
widows weeds of white for her. The
gowns are cut on the simplest lines
and like the millinery, are being made
at a fashionable Fifth avenue mourn
ing clothes store.
Such dresses as are worn out of
doors are of white crepe; the widow
and lounging robes are of the finest,
1usterless silks and louisines.
At the shop where the Aston white
mourning is being made it was said
that white mourning robes are being
m ore and more worn. s.---
