there upon his frail form, somehow
or other I fancied I saw my former
husband and it gave me new courage,
new life, for l myself had come from
Paris, as l thought, to die.
He had been dear friend to me
and to Mr.. Macy while we were liv-
ing in Townsville, Ga, and follow
ing Mr. Macy's death he had CORE
sponded with me across the waters.
And oh those beautiful letters
which he wrote to me. How could
think otherwise than that he really
loved me from the very depths of his
heart?
"A man surely loves a woman if he
corresponds in such a way all the
way across the waters, don't you
think?

so we were married shortly after
my return to my fathers home. Three
days after our wedding 1 beheld the
real mamie actually told me that
he believed woman was created only
for downfall at the hands of man.
From that time on he was a beast
and more than once he would have
allowed me to starve to death if he
could. Then came the divorce pro-
ceedings in New York State, in which
there was much legal juggling at my
expense-and that l will not coun-
tenance whatever else happens The
scene shifted from New York to
Georgia, where l won in the prelim-
mary skirmish-and then he, my rec
reant husband, came to me to beg
forgiveness.
Il forgave-I am always willing to
do that-but soon the same old
scenes were being enacted. Mr.. Keef-
err as brilliant as he was and is, was
always fond of the dazzle, the things
purely of this life.
They Separate Again.
'He was found in a hotel with an

Warning Against CareIessness of
Pupils Driven Home-CIass-
mates Honor Mary Tribbe.

Though the home is dark with sor-
row. and the death of the little girl
has left a void that can never be
filled. the parents and friends of little
Mary Tribble, 7-year-old victim of
colored crayon, find measure of
comfort to-day in the thought that
her fate has driven home with ter
rible earnestness a lesson that will
be of incalculable benefit to hundreds
of other school children.
The death of the child is to be the
price of increased vigilance by the
teachers of scores of Atlanta schools
in watching over their young charges,
and greater care by the pupils.
Many of the teachers Of the Atlanta
schools have already begun to formu-
late plans and rules that will mini
mize the danger to the children in
handling colored chalk. and other OBJ
jects likely to contain poison.
The funeral of the little girl Friday
was one of the saddest ever held in
East Atlanta. A company of Mary's
little friends members Of her school
and Sunday school classes, gathered
at the East Side Baptist Tabernacle
to pay a last tribute of love-
They brought great punches of wild
flowers, plucked with their own hands
in the nearby woods where Mary had
romped with them, and placed them
on her coffin. As the funeral process
sion entered the church, the little
boys and girls lined up on either side
of the door, and the body Of the
little girl was carried slowly between
the lines Of those she loved ana VINO
loved her.

MPORTED DETECTIVES
ARE ROUGHLY HANDLED.


1t may or it may not be true, but
rumor hash that the detectives, or at
least n of them, who were recently
imported to Hendersonville to assist in
the city publication campaign, were
treated to a severe f1ogging as they
we're leaving these parts. The details
as rumored are to the effect that sew
eral of the men who had been inform
ed upon or their sympathizers, board
ed the same train with. the departing
detectives and while en- route to the
station of Fletcher, pommelled n of
them and were about to do likewise to
the other when he took refuge in a
Pullman, the door of which was lock-
ed to prevent the entrance of his
pursuers. The rumor also says that
the detective who received the maui
ing promised by all that is good and
holly that if his assailants would
''letup' on him, he would re-
turn to Hendersonvile, not ever to
testify at the trial of the accused. That
there is truth in the rumor is a fact,
but just how much, deponeth sayeth
not.

Flat Rock News.

One of the most enjoyable affairs of
the week, was the Miscellaneous
Shower given on Saturday afternoon
by Mrs. Perry H. Walker, in honor OF
Miss Julia Nilsson, of Atlantic City,
N. J.
The affair came in the nature of a
surprise to Miss Nilsson who is to be
AN October bride and who left on Mon
day for her home. Her friends took
this occasion to attest their love and
wish her Bon Voyage"
For the occasion the home had been
beautifully decorated, potted plants,
ferns, hydrangeas and yellow daisies
Icing used most effectively. The re-
ception room was most inviting in d
color scheme of green and yellow
while in the library white and green
charmingly prevailed. After all the
guests had arrived, Mrs. Geo. Left
w:Ch, of Mobile, Ala, played Mendels-
sohn's wedding March and Master Yer
non Leftwich, treading lightly to this
March of love, bore an express wagon
appropriately decorated with green
and white and laden with dainty pack
ages, to the charming honoree. AL
though showing great surprise, Miss
Nilsson was equal to the occasion and
expressed her appreciation by at once
opening the mysterious bundles and
displaying the dainty articles and
reading the original verses to her ad-
miring friends.
Delightful refreshments were served
Iy Misses Erline Hart, Idell Hill and
Annie Patton.

Mountain Highway.

The following concerning the road
from Greenvlle to Hendersonville is
from the Greenville News: -
"a reporter of The News saw Capt.
E. "A. Smyth yesterday, knowing that
he had gone by automobile to Flat
Rock every week since the middle of
May, and asked his opinion of the new
mountain road built by Mr.. Blassin-
game for the Greenville county COM
missioners. Capt. Smyth stated that
for several weeks he had gone partly
over the new road entering It where
it crosses the old road above Pointsett
spring, and had watched carefully the
construction of the road during the
time it had been built. Last Friday
afternoon he found the new road COM
pleted and he entered the road at the
bottom of the hill and went the whole
way over the new road and came back
over the entire new road Monday
morning, He said in his opinion it
was an excellent piece of work and
the grade was so easy that an expert
enced automobile driver could go the
entire way on high gear. The road
has been scraped and the grading COM
pleted, shedding the water from the
edge of the new road back against the
mountain side, the bitches have been
opened up fairly we'll and culverts put
in where they seemed to be needed.
He said that taking it all in all he
thought that Mr.. Blassingame had
done an excellent piece of work. The
new road takes you yer the mountain
by the Graveyard gap Sc feet lower
than the old road, and while a little
longer, is much easier road to travel"
