CHILD HALTS TRIAL

''What is a child?" is the legal ques-
ton that brought the trial of Mrs. Sallie
Wheeler ct ais. to a halt yesterday and
the hearing of the case was continued
until next Thursday in order to present
authorities bearing on the case to Judge
Abernethy before whom the hearing was
held Mrs. Wheeler and several other
parties are charged with kidnapping Nora
Adams, a 15-year-od girl, from the de-
tention home of the juvenile court where
she had been ordered detained by Judge
C. C. Nesmith.
The girl an orphan, was taken to the
Juvenile court on the grounds that her
guardianship was insufficient. Habeas
corpus proceedings were resorted to in an
effort to secure her release from the ju-
venile court on bond. On the hearing of
the proceeding Judge Nesmith gave the
custody of the girl to her brother, but on
appeal from his rulings, ordered the girl
be kept at the detention home pending
the appeal.
She was taken from the detention home
and as a result Mrs. Wheeler and A. y.
Argo were cited to appear before Judge
to Jail for several days. Mrs. Wheeler
| was released but Argo served out his
| sentence.
| warrants were sworn out charging the
parties with kidnapping child, and the
| hearing set for yesterday. After the state
had examined several witnesses the at
| torneys for the defense moved to quash
| the warrant on the grounds that MISS
/ Adams was not child, but woman ana
| that the charge was groundless num-
| her of authorities from other states were
cited to Judge Abernethy, but 1t seemed
that the question had never been decided
| by the supreme court of the state Judge
| Abernethy continued the case until
| Thursday in order to fully investigate
| the law in the case
| Under the law creating the juvenile
court, passed by the last legislature, the
court has jurisdiction of children under
| 16 years of age. The point raised Is said

Quits Legal Grave

From the St. Louis Republic.
From the legal grave he has occupied
for 90 years, Henry Schicl< arose in Belle
Vile. ILL.,. to spend Easter with his son,
George Schick, a member Of the board OF
supervisors
blending of the experiences OF Enoch
Arden and Rip Van Win;1ie could have
produced result scarcely more weird
and strange than the real life drama or
the 74-year-old hermit who is revislting
his former home for the first time IN "a
wears and who was pronounced legally
dead in the probate court of Bellevilie ~
years ago.
Seven years after his departure, during
which interval he had purposely kept MS
whereabouts secret, Mrs. Schick asked
the probate court to have his properly nl-
vided among the heirs. Her petition was
granted and an order entered pronounce
ing Schick legally dead.
Some years later Mrs. Schick married
John WerkmeisterN Her second husband
died in 1903 and Mrs. Schick died last May.
About six months ago George SchicK
received letter from his father eXpiain-
ing his strange disappearance.
The son went to Colorado and induced
his father to return to Believille Tor at
least a visit. He has not yet decioeo
whether he will make his home there
however, having acquired an attachment
for his mountain retreat. A reception 70
old family friends was held at the son
home last night. at which Schick senior
was guest of honor.

Merchants and Mechanics

versary of that event the officials hope
to occupy the building which will give the

PERKINS AGREES
To CHANGED DATE
Notifies Harding That He
Will Be Here for Dinner
April 19

In telegram received yesterday from
George W. Perkins. M. Perkins acknowl-
edged receipt of the telegram from Pres
ident ". p G. Harding, and stated that
without fail he would lie in Birmingham
Saturday night April 10, to attend the an
nual banquet of the chamber at the Hotel
1Iillman.
Since the date of the banquet has been
changed from April 10 to 10 on account
of Mr.. Perkins inability TO attend on the
former date because of the Morgan fu-
neral, Dr. George II. Denny of the univer-
sity, the railroad officials who had been
invited and all members of the cham
ber have been notified by kilograms and
letters. Many additional acceptances
came into chamber headquarters yester-
will be $50. and probably more, at the ban
quet April 49, SO far it is unknown
whether the change of date will affect
any of the railroad officials who had ac-
cepted invitations, but it is believed it will
mot DR.. Denny, who. with Mr.. Perkins,
wil speak at the dinner. has been in
formed and states the change of date is

London, president of the Alabama Inter-
state Power company, will be here for the
banquet.

MIR. Perkins yesterday:

Eiffel Now Studies Air

From the New York Press
M. Eiffel the builder of the famous
tower. is carrying out elaborate expert
ments in wind pressure by means of
which he hopes to solve theoretically the
problems of aviation. At Auteuil he has
established an enormous aerodynamic lab
oratory which contains among other elab-
crate apparatus system of fans capable
of producing wind currents of all speeds
up to 45 yards a second. By an ingen-
ious contrivance of balances he is able
to test the pressure on a plane surface
at different angles and in different posi-
tions, thus obtaining statistics most use
full to French airmen. He Is also giving
attention to the question of wind pressure
on the walls of airship shelter; also the
force of different kinds of propelers used
on air craft

Dress Reform in China
From Leslie's.

"
China is now a republic, but they still
do some things in the old way. For
example, an edict has been issued by the
cabinet of the republic that will change
sfhe style of dress from Oriental to Occi-
dental. Women are to give up their
trousers for loose-ftting garment on
the lines of a kimono for housewear, and
sshirtwaist and plated skirt for street
alse. Men are to wear the business suit
and conventionl evening clothes of the
east Women will be permitted to wear
nothing but high shoes, while men will
he allowed to use high calf-slxin or low
tan Shoes 1t may be that the govern
ment will find difficulty in enforcing an
edict so revolutionary, especially when
many Chinese women look upon their
present costume, and not without
grounds too, as being more modest and
convenient.

Filipino Progress Great

From the washington POST
1T was Is years ago that Admiral
Dewey said Good morning to Senor
Montejo in Manila Bay. believe"
observed Allan Johnston of San Fran
cisco, at the Ebbitt house. IF l re-
call my history the senior replied, Good
night
I'm these days you do not have to
know the native lingo TO travel in the
islands. Things have changed and
they speak English how, or close to 1t.
1t is wonderful what the educational
department out there has accomplished
in so short a time.
'"rhe administration is considering
home rule for the Fflipinos and real
ly great factor in their being able TO
assume self government will be the
unifying of their language. There have
been in the island OF Luzon alone as
many as 10 Nifferent dialects spoken,
and some so in all the islands.
81 have often heard 1t remarked by
teachers that the average dgh school
graduate in the islands speaks better
English than even graduates in this
country because, perhaps/1earning the
language only from teachers, he omits
the barbarisms A Filipino. of course,
does not know how to misuse the verb.
English Is the language of the street
and baseball field, for we have taught
them to play baseball and they have
| learned to use the appropriate slang in
our national game
"Our educational system has cost the
government over S1,000.0 900 a year. but
the results have warranted the expen-
diture. When the Americans have uni
fled the language a great achievement
| from their point of view and a help IN
conducting autonomous government, II
! they ever achieve it, There are over
| 500, 900 native children in our schools
out there.

century prior to the American advent.
