Mysterious Phone Message Bares
Remarkable Marital Record.
Police Investigating,

A mysterious telephone call had the
police hard at work Thursday unrav-
cling an astonishing marital tangle in
which youthful and pretty Mrs. Cora
Barber, who first abandoned single
blessedness at the age of Is, was the
principal figure.
The call came from the Pryor Ho-
tel, and informed the police that James
A. Barber was beating his wife. Po-
licemen Hazlett and Bairfield arrest
ed Barber, who, with his young bride,
was arraigned before Recorder
Broyles Thursday.
1t developed then that nobody was
willing to stand sponsor for the
charge, and the case was about to col
lapse when it developed, through the
evidence of Dr. C. w. Smith, a drug
gist at No 10 Carroll street, that
there were other features calling for
investigation.

Smiths story showed that Mrs.
Barber had been three times wife
and perhaps four. She admitted three

Mrs. Bond Says, Accusing
Blind Scion.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Feb. II
Trembling with nervous agita-
ton, the pallor of her face i'll
concealed by a thick black veil,
Mrs. Minnie L. Bond this morn
ing told the story of the alleged
attack made upon her by Thos.
P. Gore, Junior Senator from
Oklahoma.
Mrs. Bond was the first witness
called. Her story forms the back
bone of the case brought by her
against the blind Senator for $4,000
damages.
Mrs. Bond was dressed In black.
She frequently raised the yelling and
placed her handkerchief to her eyes.
Senator Gore and his wife arrived
in court at 9 o'clock. Senator Core
directed that he be led to a seat near
the witness stand. Rain did not pre-
vent the crowd of spectators from
being as large as yesterday. Many
women were in the courtroom.

In reply to questions by Ross Lii

DORSEY ACTS
IN WAR ON!
LOCKERS
Police Commissioners Are Called.
tentative indictments Framed.
DuBose to Lead Inquiry.

4 Grand Jury probe OF Atlanta
locker clubs was begun Thursday
when Deputy Sheriff Picnic Miner,
acting under directions from Solicl-
Tor General Dorsey, began serving
subpenas on officers of the organi-
cations and members of the Police
Commission to appear before the
Grand Jury Friday.
Indictments have been drawn by
Solicitor Dorsey, from the Capital
City Club on down, and the list of
witnesses will include the many
prominent business and professional
men who are officers of the better
clubs.
At the same time it was learned
that the officers of the social clubs
where liquor is served as an incident
would inform the Grand Jury that
they would make every effort to COM
ply with the law.
Willing to Make Changes.
They will present the premise that
they always have lived within the
spirit of the law, and will make
whatever technical changes are nee
essary.
The bills of indictment prepared By
Solicitor Dorsey are against the cor
porations and not against the clue
officers or members Some clubs, il
was learned, already have provided
changes in their systems of keeping
drinks for their members.
Solicitor Dorsey's move was made
after members of the Atlanta Law
enforcement League. led by the Rev.
II. NJ. DuBose, had conferred with
members of the Grand Jury and with
him,
Pastor as Prosecutor.
He was supplied with considerable
evidence. Before the Grand Jury he
will stand in the roll as prosecutor
In this as in all other cases.
City officials are very much wor-
ried over the situation. A majority
declared for liberal policy, and all
but three of twenty applications Tor
licenses were granted despite reports
that several of the clubs are being
run for Individual gain.
The Grand Jury will investigate
these reports.
Aside from the moral issue, city
officials are troubled with another
phase of the case.
Near Beer Sale Attacked.
The Law Enforcement League has
attacked the system of the sale of
near beer" 1t has been announced
that after the status of locker clubs
has been settled, they intend to take
up the saloons.
Locker clubs net the city approx e
mately $4,000 year income, and
from the present number of saloons
ebout $50, 900 is secured. This amount
has been included in the new budget,
End will still be included whether the
budget is passed as recommended by
the Finance Committee or amended
IN accordance with the demands of
the Aldermanic Board.
Should these institutions be closed
the city would be out 100000; and
In its present strained financial con-
dition it would find itself in a hole.

Everybody dances these days
dance days as well as nights. At lawn
parties as well as balls, and at teas
as well as dinners dancing is sure to
enliven the entertainment
So the dancing frock is just as nee
essary a part of the summer ward
robe as it is of the winter outfit and
the summer girl gives just as much
attention to her dancing dresses as
to her outing clothes.
The frock illustrated is made of
white charmeuse, but it would be just
as pretty if white null or Paris lawn
were substituted for the more ex-
pensive material. The underskirt is
short, and it's wide enough to allow
for the glides and slides of the new
dances. The tunic is very simple and
the bodice is simply draped around
the figure, giving the effect of a sash.
If made for day wear, short sleeves
and round neck would be more ap-
propriate than the sleeveless, low
necked gown pictured.

TRACK ATHLETES
BEGIN TRAINING
Pennsylvania, Which Won
1913 Title, Again Has Much
Material For Teams.

New York, Feb with the spring
track and field schedules completed and
large squads of athletes training at
all the eastern universities, 1t is posi-
Bile to secure a general line on the
activities and prospects of the various
teams for the season Of 1914. While
all the leading colleges report many
veteran and novice cinder and turf
performers in training there appears to
be little indication at this time of I'M
usual advantage at any one particular
institution with the possible exception
of Pennsylvania.
Pennsylvania, which won the 1913 IT,
tie with score of q points, is again
favored with athletic material of con-
siderable strength. The Red and Blue
appears to have the best balanced team
in sight, being strong in every position
except huTdling-
The outlook at Harvard, which fin
ished second with 211z points, is not
so satisfactory, and coaches Powers
and Donovan will have to develop a
number of new men if the Crimson
team is to repeat it's record of last sea-
son. At Cornell trainer Jack MOakley
has 40 athletes in training. The
Ithaca team finished fourth with 1755
points in 1913 being defeated for third
place by Michigan.
Dartmouth, which won fifth place at
the I. a. a. A. A. meet with 1415 points,
is not optimistic regarding the track
team. Coach Harry Millman states
that, like Cornell, graduation cut
heavily into the point winners.
Yale is at present weak in distance
runners but in both sprints and field
contests has veteran and novice COM
petitors who should win places in both
dual and championship meets The
Blue has captain Brown, who won the
intercollegiate half mile, and Potter,
second in the 220 hurdles, as a nucleus
Oler, 1913 freshman team captain, Is
expected to win a place in the high
jump and Talbot to do as well in the
hammer throw. If trainer Mack can
develop several high class sprinters
and distance runners the Ellis will
prove formidable
