A Louisiana Drama
In Real Life.

There have been few trials IN the
history of the state of Louisiana that
have staged such a sensational and
such a mysterious case as that OF W.
c.. Walters, charged with kidnapping
Robert Dunbar, the son Of MIR. and
Mrs. c. =. Dunbar, OF Opelousas. La
The first scene was laid In Massis-
sippi and the second act is now max
ing the Louisiana town OF Opesousas
famous.
DID the old. intfnerant tinker kid
nap the Dunbar child, is the question
that twelve men will have to decide.
Public opinion is very much dtvid-
ed
walters has gone to trial in COM
munity where everyone. or nearly
everyone. has prejudiced his case and
with them he Is already guilty. It
will be difficult for him to get an
acquittal under the circumstances.
There have been few dramas IN
real life, and not 30 many on the
stage. that have better plots than the
theories that both the state and
the defense afford in the Walters
case. It has all the elements that
go to make an interesting and absorb
ing story, and the way 1t is being
played up in the newspapers Is adding
to the interest.
In this connection 1t may be OBJ
served that there are a whole lot of
shot air. stories being sent out that
are not worthy Of oredence. and it is
difficult to know what story is true
and what is not. Just a few days ago.
the citizens of Opelousas waited ON a
newspaper correspondent who had
been taking interviews, and told him
that this must cease. It IL to be re-
GREETED that the love for the sensa-
tional sometimes prevents accurate
and truthful reports of such trials, for
lots OF people are influenced by what
they read and If it is untrue they form
a wrong impression.
The reports that are being sent out
by the Associated Press can be relied
on. This great news gathering sasso-
citation does not pander to the greed
for sensationalism. It endeavors only
to secure the facts and its reports can
be regarded as correct.

GOOD PHOTOS
OF AEROP[ANES
ARE OBTAINED
w. c. HARRISON OF PATHEs
WEEKLY TAKES PICTURE FROM
MACHINE AND SECURES SOME
FINE ONES.

Some excellent views of the naval
aeroplanes and scenes about the aero
nautic station were secured yesterday
by w. E Harrison of Pathe's Weekly
who Is in the city and who waited a
favorable opportunity of getting the
flyers in groups as we'll as in various
positions while in the air.
Mr.. Harrison went up in one ma
chine with Lieut.. Towers and took one
view of the machines in groups while
they were at a good altitude, the city
being in the background. Other fine
views were also obtained while in the
machine.
Mr.. Harrison was In Pensacola sew
eral weeks ago and obtained quite a
number of views, going from here to
South Florida.

to testify to seeing two men exchanges
two boys as the prosecution had an

ever that another man with another
boy was at Poplarvil1e about the time
she saw there the man and boy she
today identified as Walter Walters and
Robert.
The state Is expected to close its case
after inS@oducing only a few more wit
nesses.
FORGE LAST LINK.
The state today attempted to forge
the last link in its chain of evidence
against w. c. Walters. on trial here

Robert Dunbar, to show that the de-

time the boy disappeared from a fish

suMEs THE MANAGEMENT FOL-
LOWING RESIGNATION OF MR..
ROBERTS.

Capt Stevens Of the local Salvation
Army branch, has taken over the man

future conduct that institution in con-
nection with the Salvation Army. He
assumed the management Of the Mis-

found thing at the Mission, he said. in
a condition that would stand improve

changes for the best, placing an exper-
fence of more than twenty years In
the Army service forward as a guide
to change things for the best. In the
new field he will be ably assisted by
Mrs. Stevens, who has herself been en-
gagged in the Army service for more
than thirty years.

Which Is the Cause
and Which the Effect?

In an article on woman's dress dis
cussed recently in a press dispatch
from London the statement was made
that the present exaggerated styles in
woman's attire were probably an ex-
preston Of the revolt of the feminine
woman against the movement for equal
suffrage. This was the opinion OF an
Englishman. who claimed to have given
some thought to the matter
Englishmen are proverbial for going
around very ciTcuitous ways to come
to very abstruse conclusions on very
simple matters. and the process of the
English mind Is, in this case as cir
cumlocutionary as it is on many other
matters. and as far from the real point.
Any person who has given thought
and study to the subject of equal suf-
frage must see in the two opposite
types OF women discussed an entirely
different meaning from that given by
the Englishman. On the one hand is
the woman who gowns herself in all
manner OF freakish styles. wears dia-
phanous draperies that reveal more
than they conceal. tangos her careless
way through life, thinks no more of
smoking ClSdTelte or drinking COCK
tail than she does OF seeing her son or
husband or brother smoking a cigarette
or drinking a cocktail. This is one
extreme.
On the other hand is the woman who
wears short skirts, sensible shoes. has
no use for bridge and tango, and thinks
shame of the woman who drinks and
smokes. She is fighting militant for
equal suffrage. This is another ex-
IRENE. Between these two extremes
there are women who are blindly fol-
lowing the styles on the one hand
because they have no initiative, have
never thought for themselves and do
not wish TO take the trouble to think
for themselves. Some man milliner
over in Paris. some man mantua maker
in London, some manufacturer in
America. because he is out of money.
sets certain styles and these women,
who go their careless way. follow these
styles blindly. They see nothing vic
aous in them because they are not
themselves vicious. They are merely
following a fashion that has been set

were no fire escapes in the front of the
building and the large number of dead
and injured was due to the refusal of
the panic stricken people to remain in
the front windows where many were
rescued by f1remen. All Of the dead
and injured were taken from the rear
rooms and halls where they were
caught while attempting to reach the
roof and fire escapes.
One man was killed in trying to es-

control in less than an hour but in
that time many thrilling rescues were
made by the firemen working from
ladders in front and from windows of
a nearby tenement building.
Captain Smith, who was suspended
by his feet from a window, prevented
Louis Boylan from being dashed to
death when a ladder broke on which
