Fathers and Sons.

MY father planned everything you
see here" replied Gordon He was
the architect. builder. landscape gar
dener and all. Quarrymen, masons,
laborers and workmen of every de-
scription came down from the North
in trainloads While they were here
they were housed in shacks and when
they left the shacks were burned. The
workmen came in relays from the
North. As fast as one set finished its
work another took its place Then
came carloads of furniture and things
and at last everything was complet-
ed I am told it was a very busy
place around here while the work was
going on. My father and mother liv-
ed in a small house which was after
wards torn down. ! was born in this
house before ii was fully con pleted.
And you never went away from
| here until you went to Atlanta" ask
ed Mildred
Never went more than fifteen miles
| from this house in any direction"
why was that?"
That is what l have wanted to tell
you for a long time. Let US go down
in the garden by the brook You will
| like it better there, as it is cool and
shady"
They descended the stairs and
walked out through the Italian gar
dens Everything was so well kept
and cared for that Mildred did not
wonder that large force of men was
required on the place. They reached
the edge of the brook and walked up
its bank beyond the confines of the
garden, to a rustic seat, where Cor
don began his story.

DESIRED BOY, so
STUNNED SUGAR
Duchess Gives Birth to Heir and
Duke Credits Doctors
Advice.

London, Sept. 9.rThe baby born to
the Duchess of Roxburghe is a boy, ac-
cording to the duke, principally because
his mother, who was Miss May Goelet
of New York, ate no food containing
sugar for months before his advent into
the world Sunday night.
In announcing yesterday the birth OF
an heir Sunday night the Duke of Rox-
burghe admitted that his wife had prac-
tised form of eugenics, and said they
both attributed the sex of the new born
infant to this.
Desiring a male heir to the dukedom,
the duchess went to Vienna in 1909 and
there consulted DIR. Leopold Schenk,
scientist, who is an authority on EN-
bryology. He is connected with the uni
versity at Vienna, and has given much
study to the prenatal determination of
sex.
DIR. Schenk advised the duchess, and
she followed his instructions. The prin-
cipal thing he told her to do in order to
insure male child was to avoid all
food containing sugar. She did 50, ac-
cording to the duke, and bore son.

1000 MILES UP THE AMAZON.
University of Pennsylvania Expedition
Reaches Spot Almost Unknown.

Philadelphia, Sept. 9.--The Amazon
exploration expedition sent out by the
University of Pennsylvania several
months ago has just reported reaching
Caracari, small settlement at the
headwaters of navigation on the Rio
Branco and near the borders of the
Guianas, in South America. 1t is about
1000 miles from the mouth of the Anna
zon and is a spot almost unknown to
civilization. The information is con
tanned in letter received yesterday
from DIR. William c. Farabee, leader of
the expedition. From Caracari the sci
entists will proceed to the headwaters
of the Branco in small boats to reach the
habitat of the Caribs and Arewak In
dams, which so far as is known has
never been visited by white men. DR..
Farabee reports that he has met nothing
but friendliness, that the natives treat
the expedition well and that there is
not the slightest danger. The expe-
dition is now ahead of schedule time.
All the members are reported to be in
good health.

Washington, Sept. 9--Before Mrs.

ish militant suffragists, can be admit
ted to the United States in October, the
time set in the latest announments for
her coming, the immigration authorities
will decide whether any of the acts for
which. she has been imprisoned in Eng

the meaning Of the law, and make her
an undesirable alien.
She viii be detained at whatever port
she lands, but whether, eventually, she
may be permitted TO enter cannot be
foretold. To the immigration authori-
ties Mrs. Pankhurst's visit presents at
this time purely hypothetical ques-
tion, and they decline to pass upon il
in advance.
Officials OF the department of labor
now are seeking all ohtainable informa
tion concerning the British suffragist's

Police Trying to Learn Identity of Dead
Girl.

New York, Sept. 9.AAn embroidered
letter "A" begun with flourish and
finished with uncertain hand, gave de-
tectives yesterday their first tangible
clue in New York's latest murder mys-
terry, the body of whose victim, a
girl in the twenties, has been
surrendered in two pieces by the Hudson
river.
Through this hand worked letter which
adorned the corner of the stained pillow
slip containing the lower part of the
body, found Sunday, detectives hope to
establish the young woman's identity,
although her head, arms and legs had
not been found.
1t is believed that the river still holds
these members Of the body and that
the crime was committed in New York
by person or PERSONS yersed in surg
cry.
This theory is strengthened By the
skill with which the body was dissected
and the finding in the pillow slip with
the lower torso of nine pound rock
of kind which abounds in Manhattan
but is seldom seen on the Jersey side of
the river. A probable motive for the
crime is found with the discovery that
the young woman was to have become
mother within a few months.
A rambling letter sent unsigned to the
Hoboken morgue where the body lies is
also being investigated. In this letter
the writer bewails the disappearance of
Ella" and names an East Side physi-
clan.

Congressman Advocating
Immediate Legislation
for Railroads
WOULD BAR ALL
WOODEN CARS
Senator O'Gorman Intro
duces Bill Calling for
Steel Coaches

Washington, Sept. Representative
Talcott Of New York, author of the
steel-car bill, has announced that the
entire matter of safety appliances for
railroads will be considered by sub
committee of the committee on inter
state commerce. Hearings will be held
the date of which is not yet announced
and all pending legislation before Con-
gress on this general subject will be
taken up at that time. The recent Wal
lingford wreck on the New Haven rail-
road has given impetus to this move
ment. Representative Farr OF Pennsyl-
vania. speaking before the House on the
New Haven accident stated, The way
to stop accidents on road like that is
to give the interstate commerce commits
sion the power to regulate train opera
tons particularly where wooden cars are
used. Steel ears on this New Haven
train would undoubtedly have saved
some lives, but would not have elimi-
mated the probability of fatalities"
The fact that the administration i
considering a program OF railroad and
trust legislation for the next session has
caused hesitaney among some OF the
leaders as TO the propriety OF bringing
up any railroad legislation until that
program shall be finally announced.
Strong pressure, however, is being
brought upon House and Senate leaders
to lose no time, but to strengthen the
hands of the interstate commerce COM
mission Immediately and to pass the leg
islation which that commission has been
urging for several years.
Senator O'Gorman of New York has
introduced in the Senate bill requiring
common carriers engaged in interstate
commerce to use cars built of steel. The
bill provides that after Jan, |, 1918, 1t
shall be unlawful for railroads to use
cars not constructed OF steel for the
transportation OF passengers, baggage or
mail. After Jan. |. 1914, Senator OGor-
man would make it Illegal for wooden

Science Case.

London, Sept 9.-The point whether
the father is guilty of manslaughter
following the death of his child if he
relies solely on the services of Christ
ian Science practitioner during serious
illness was decided in the affirmative by
Justice Rowlatt in the central criminal
court yesterday. Though the case was

quilted because the charge was not

A verdict of manslaughter was re-
turned on August 9 last by eoroners
Jury against Benjamin Jewell whose
seven year old daughter died from diph-
liberia while undergoing Christian
Science treatment. Jewell yesterday
pleaded not guilty, declaring he was not
aware that the child was suffering from
diphtheria.

acauit Jewell on the ground OF lnsuifl-
Gent evidence, but turning to the de-
PENDANT he admonished him to be more
careful in the future, saying: III the
