lust look at this perfectly splendid pic
ture of little Betty" Bacon. Of course the
picture of Mrs. Sankey 7. Bacon is good,
but Betty" is the chief object of interest in
her family now. All the family from
Grandpa Hugh T. Taggart down to the lit
tlest cousin think this picture is the best
ever and they also think that Betty is the
only grandchld that ever was.
Mrs Bacon and her sister Anna Taggart,
have been visiting down in Ashevllle ever
since DR.. Bacon received orders for duty at
Newport for the summer. They arrived in
Washington day or two ago and after visit
ing their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Taggart, in
Georgetown, for little while, will 60 on
to Newport to join DR.. Bacon for the rest
of the summer
Northern resorts do not claim all Of the
summer sojourners these days. Asheville,
though par excellence winter place, is full
of society folk, and the Secretary of State
and Mrs. Bryan have rented a cottage there
for the season and will take possession
shortly. Last week the Secretary made
short stay at the Battery Park Hotel and was
an honored guest at the twenty-seventh an
niversary ball there, and was entertained at
dinner before the dance.
Capt and Mrs. Clarence R. Day are at the
Grove Park Inn for a short stay; also Capt
and Mrs. R. w. Mcmillan. Indeed, Asheville
seems to be particularly attractive to service
folk, for | have heard of just dozens of army
and navy people who had been there recently
or were contemplating visit in the near fu-
ture.
All the rain we have had, Susan has done
wonders in keeping Washington as beau
tifully green as in the early spring. The
lawns and trees in the neighborhood of the
Capitol, and, in fact, all of the Government
buildings, are like green velvet. I've never
sseen more beautiful flowers anyway than this
summer One afternoon ] went over to the
hospital to see some one who was i'll, and
while there box came from Small's filled
with pale pink gladiolus. They were ex-
quisite.

over here All kinds. Why the other day
was chatting with Ruth's mother ever the
phone and she said the: she had planned
TO 60 down town tha. morning, but that she
couldn't Co. She had to stay home while her
cook went to the hairdressers. She tried to
get her to put the dressing off until the next
afternoon, which was the maids day on,
but she said she wouldn't 60 then because
every girl in town was there on Thursday
afternoon, and she wouldn't mix up" with
them.
One of the prettiest parties know of was
given recently in celebration Of the birthday
of Mrs. Olive D. Rodgers in her apartment,
in the Cavendish, by a number OF her
friends. 1t was her seventy-ffth annlver-
sary, but really that was almost impossible
to believe. If anyone had said 6ftieth it
would have been more like it.
Mrs Rodgers is the most wonderfully
is but slightly gray and very abundant, and
her complexion is beautiful She does beau
tful painting even now, and she takes an in
terest in everything and everyone. She goes
in for quite busy social life. She has
large circle of friends and is always the
moving spirit among !. I'm.
Mrs Emma Crossley presided at the punch
bowl.
Margaret Wilson is visiting Claire Batten,
up at the Batten place, at saltwater, on the
Delaware river, near Pocono, Pa. She is
having the time of her life, taking pictures,
dancing, playing tennis, and motoring and
forgetting that she is the Presidents daugh-
ter and a magazine editor.
v Mr.. and Mrs Arthur W. Thomas are hav-
ing their annual family reunion at Marshall
Hall tomorrow in celebration of the birthday
of the host You know the Thomases are
members of the old Marshall family, who
originally owned Marshall Hall, and they al
ways select this historic spot for their party.
The dinner will be served in old-fashioned
MARYLAND style, and the guests will include
Mr. and Mrs. H. Edwin Thomas, Mr.. and
Mrs Allan Morton Thomas, Mr.. and Mrs.
John Blackford, john +. lnomas, H. X.
Thomas Eunice Blake Omohundro, and Mr..
and Mrs. Lanford.
The Minister of Peru and Nine. Pezet are
still here. was talking to Nine. Pezet and
she said they we're hoping to get away very
soon. They will 60 to Cape Cod to join A.
Washington Pezet, who is up there busy writ
ing another play.
Seems to me that most all OF the festivl.
ties are centering about the Speaker and
Mrs Champ Clark these days. Either, the
Clarks are giving one of their delightful and
frequent luncheon parties at the Capitol Oh
are being entertained at dinner or supper
somewhere. The other night Mrs. W. W
Dixon, that charming Southern woman who
lives at the Willard, and Miss Flora Wilson
gave dinner at Dover House for the
Sneaker and Mrs Clark. There was quite
large party, and they went down in motor
cars and had the most splendid time. Gene

to the members of the party, made up cniefy
of her elders, as she would have II they had
all been folks in her own little circle. She
is wonder, anyway.
Nellie Claire Howard is back in town,
but not for long. Nellie and her mofhef
went down to Norfolk and Old Point Com
fort and spent three weeks with friends.
They had the best sort Of time making trips
to the various places of interest III the vicin-
ity. They went down to Back Bay, where
President Cleveland used to 60 hunting.
This was the very first time Nellie had
been down to Norfolk, and she was so enthu-
siastic over the trip and wonders why she
never went before.
She is going up to New York soon on
motor trip to visit Irene Barry, who was
down here last winter.
No, Hazel and Alice did not come over
from Baltimore for the weekend. II was so
hot, they decided that they would stay home.
have not been over there, either. But,
speaking of Baltimore makes me think OF
something Mrs Marshall was telling me the
other day. She and the Vice President mo-
tored over recently to spend the day with
some friends and they found the read COW
cred with tar They were so covered with It
that Mr.. Marshall said she had to pitch her
gloves into the trash basket and send her
coat and dress to cleansers righ: on. And
her hat-that is past telling! On the return
trip they sought different route, and before
they reached Washington they had gone
about $50 miles, and it was awfully late.
Little Elizabeth Milliken, by her family
affectionately known as Miss Billy Buf6ng-
ton," is back home again and cutter and
sweeter than ever She has grown so that
hardly recognized her. One of the funniest
things she has said recently was about the
neighbors cooker" Seems as if the maid
had been taken i'll and the ambulance was
sent for and the Doctor and driver escorted
the woman from the house. Little Billy
had been in the kitchen watching her mother
,renovating and dyeing some ribbons when
the gong on the hospital wagon sounded,
and, childlike, she ran to see what was going
on. When she returned she said that the
cooker had died, and, when rebuked for
telling a fb she said We'll, she is dyed
black anyway"
Did you know that the night of the 4th
of March she prayed to the Lord to make
Mothers lap longer. Mother had attempted
to hold her as the parade went by, but she
slipped off and it worried her.
There is not one other thing for me 10
write about except that after | post this,
shall look over my none-too-extensive ward
robe and select what seems best to wear out
to Aunt Jennie's dance tonight. | rather
think I'll go up in Maryland on Monday to
spend few days, but your letter will be for

Well, on August IS she and John w. Christie

other, did you get the ring?" The
reply could not be heard, but the
question fixed the fact that the rob-
bers were regular frequenters of the
place.
When the pair reached the head of
the basement stairs they turned and
went up into the Kendall house on
the second floor and continued on to
the rear, emerging on St. Patrick
street, where they were lost in the
darkness.
Two men walking in the direction
of Millers were stopped by the po-
lice on suspicion, but they explained
their presence and proved they had
nothing to do with the robbery,
as their total wealth was $1.35. The
police say they have no clue as to
the observation-disclosures.

Players Relieved
of ValuableS

Masked holp-ups raided a game Of
whist in the basement of the Ken
dali block last night about 1870
o'clock and got away with a diamond
valued at $500 belonging to one Of
the players and about $500 in casn
taken from patrons of the game and
a small quantity of watches and
jewelry found in the pockets of the
half dozen men and boys who were
in the place.
For pay night the attendance was
small and as the night wore around
to II o'clock the crowd slowly di-
minished until at 11:3O there Were
but six or seven in the place. The
bandits came downstairs with their
faces covered with pieces Of black
cloth and danced into the room with
a sort of jig step, calling to the
bunch to hold up their hands. The
actions of the men were rather
amusing and one of the crowd
thought the ,hold-up business was
only a feint and a laugh was raised
until the robbers called down the
man who saw the funny situation by
poking him in the ribs with a gun.
Another one OF the gamblers tried to
pass back of the hold-ups and re-
ceived a vigorous kick that sent him
Keeling to his corner. One OF the
players darted to a back room to
dispose of his diamond scarf pin and
diamond ring and was called back,
but he dropped a ring worth S l,5OC
in a Corner. On returning to the
line he was Invested of the pin and
while one man held a gun his COM
panion went through the clothing of
the victims. When this was finished
the kitty roll was taken and the rob-
bers retreated upstairs. As they were
leaving the room one man asked the

Did it require the coming Of a helms case
to make an honest lawyer out of Smith?
Another angle" that suggests itself is
this
Why was Burns so sure that Smith would
find what Burns wanted
According to Smith himself it appears that
Burns and Lehon h7aeac that Smith would
'clear Frank" just as Burns had so often
and SO brilliantly cleared him in the bought
up newspapers.
Burns and Lehon were so certain Smith
would "clear Frank" that they made a deal
with him on thut basis.
In keeping his part Of this extraordinary
bargain, Mr.. Smith adds nothing to our
knowledge of the case. He repeats the fraz-
lied talk about the notes, and the threadbare
statement that Conleys story Of the crime
was "a cunning fabrication"
Marvellous fabrication
Luther Rosser's s hour ross-examination
only strengthened it, all attempts to disprove
it left it as strong as ever, and all efforts TO
buy or suppress evidence against it petered
out so completely that Burns fed the State,
after narrowly escaping Judge Lynch at Ma
rietta.
w M Smiths attitude is pitisble, and Dis
graceful. His own statement makes it so.
IF the Georgia Bar Association can endure
0uN1I I1ICu1UE1S do 1GOSSti, LAIIOItI, 1IddS dI(L
Smith, it should elect Abe Hummel honorary
member for life.
Still another "angle" is this:
When the Atlanta Jour7,G2 declared that
the execution of the Sodomite would be
judicial MURDER" why didn't W. M. Smith
let out what he knew, them?
II he knew anything at that time, and yet
remained silent as Frank got nearer and
nearer to the halter. lawyer Smith was
deeply guilty man in becoming silent part
ner in the crime Of judicial murder"
II lawyer Smith knew nothing favorable
to the murderous Sodomite at that time, how
has he since discovered what Rosser, Arnold,
Haas, Burns Lehon, and the private dotectire
of Franks lawyers failed to find?
Is Smith better detective than all the
others, or is he merely better lawyer than
all the others?
Again I say Smith had better be careful
?. S. note that the Ochs paper. the New
York Times, has opened up again, simulta-
neously with Smith and the Georgia dailies.
