SENATE TALK IS
|LL-T|MED NOW,
SAYS S[ATON

Governor Slaton declined to-day to
discuss the matter of Senator Bacon's
successor in the United States SEN
ate.
The Governor thinks that specula-
ton or comment at this time as to
whom he will appoint to succeed the
dead statesman is altogether out of
place and uncalled for.
Speaking of this matter in the Cap
itol Monday, the Governor said:
Il realize that 1t is my duty to ao-
point, in due course, a successor t.
Senator Bacon, and this obligation
imposed upon me by the law will be
met fully and frankly when the time
for it's consideration shall have ar
rived.
Declines to Discuss 1t.
81 know, too, that private discus
sion of the succession will be INDUCED
in, and this does not necessarily carry
with it oisrespect for the dead. The
people of Georgia are loyal and true
to themselves, and they will show no
discourtesy to such men as Senator
Bacon, dead or alive.
Il, however shall have nothing to
say. publicly or otherwise, about Sen
ator Bacon's successor, at least until
after his body is laid to rest. | do
not think 1t would be becoming in me
to discuss the succession now, even
were / inclined to do so, which l am
not.
I'm all Kindness therefore l sug-
gest that the matter be not mention I'd
to me now. l wish to, be as consid-
crate of the feelings of all people as
possible, but l wish 1t understood that
| do not consider it proper for me to
FOL Of hi far in Sem
ator Bacons funeral.
And in this ! am sure right think
ing neople generally will agree with
me.
THE white face of the distinguished
dead surely may be allowed to operate
as truce that all men, of all shades
of opinion, well may agree to respect
and observe scrupulously."
There has been little talk of the
Senatorial succession INDUCED in thus
far. but it has cropped out in few
spots "Favorite sons" SO called, are
being groomed here and yonder, ir-
respective of sections.
Some few suggestions have been
lodged with the Governor, in one way
and another. but these have not been
divulged. Evidently, the Governor
much prefers that no suggestions be
made to him in this important mat
ter now.
Will Meet Situation.
He realizes, apparently. that the
death of Senator Bacon may be far
reaching in its political effect and il
is his purpose eventually to meet the
situation confronting him with frank
ness and official candor.
At the same time the impression
created by the Governors utterances
to date is that 1t probably will not
operate to the advantage of any can
didate to have his claims urged too
evidently at this time.
The Governor believes that nothing
will be gained by precipitate discus
sion OF the Senatorial succession, and
that respectful consideration should
deter public agitation of the matter
now

The mummy case is that Of tho

Princess was priestess OF the

5000 years ago.

way an object Of high art. The case
in question is splendid specimen.
The mummy Itself Is but an I'm.

bones and dingy wrappings.
The Princess Hetare deserted the
Temple Of Amen-Ra in order to aid
her half brother, who was fighting
for the throne. The curse Of the god
has rested upon her ever since.
Thus began the story which was pub
lished when her evil influence first
attracted notice. History tells US
that she was murdered by devotee
OF Amen-Ra, but was buried with
royal honors.
Forty years ago the mummy and
case were bought by q party Of Eng

Every one has heard of the
malign Egyptian mummy case which
was brought to the British Museum
some years ago, and whose presence
dealt death and disaster to attend
ants and others who looked upon 1t.
A story Is now being told In we'll

have emanated from one OF the
museum authorities. From this 1t
would appear that several of the
museum attendants. convinced that
they were In danger OF their lives.
presented an ulti. alum that the
coffin-lid must be removed from their
vicinity or they would resign.
'"Their demand was considered by
the curators. and, in view OF the
catalogue Of calamities that some
how seemed connected with the
mummy case, their demand was con.
sidered reasonable. A replica was
accordingly made and painted In
exact facsimile. and this was e1-
fibited to the public as the real
thing, no outsider being any the
wiser or the worse. The coffin Itself
was deposited in an obscure cellar
in the vaults OF the museum. Then
all stories as to the evil influence Of
the Egyptian coffin ceased.
"The attendants exhibited the rep
iica with calm minds and stolid in
scrutability. The public who gazed
upon 1t suffered no ill-effects. BY
and bye. however, an American
Egyptologist inspected the coffin
and ascertained that it was certainly
not genuine. 1t was faithful copy,
but his expert eye discovered 1t to be
a fraud! To drop on the British
Museum exhibiting a fake was an
event Of first-class Importance, and
an exposure that,wo have brought
worldwide ridicule upon the vener.

art and treasure seemed imminent.
1.-THE curators, therefore, took the
American visitor into their conf.

done. Moreover, they took him to
the cellar and showed him the
original coffin. and he declared that
he was satisfied.

deal to expect OF her. Will Barrie
disinherit herr That is too cruel an
act to expect from q man of his
amiable character.
Barrie's orlglnaI course In adopt
Ing charming and well-grown
young woman of the stage will ap.
pear rather puzzling to many simple
minded people. 1t can only be I'M
derstood by those who have made
thorough study OF all the authors
writings. To those who have mas
tered the extraordinary psychology
revealed by such books as "Senti-
mental Tommy" and Tommy and
Grizel," no sentimental action by
Barrie need appear surprising. 1t
may safely be said that there Is
nothing Of tho red-blooded primitive
man, 1.-The mans man" Of American
fiction, about Barrie. He is gentle
and subtle.
Five years ago Barrie obtained
divorced from his first wife, formerly
Mary Ansell, very handsome Eng
lish actress. He obtained it on the
ground Of her relations with Gilbert
Canaan. a rising young critic, who
in the intervals of calling on Mrs.
Barrie was trying to improve the
stage censorship. The evidence
showed that he had repeatedly
abused Barrie's hospitality. Barrie
offered to forgive his wife If she
wouldn't. He wept when he went
into court. Then he gave a house
in London, house in the country
and handsome income for life TO
his divorced wife.
The first Mrs. Barrie was not alto.
gether pleased with Polly Chase as
an adopted daughter. The senti-
mental Barrie discovered that Polly
was the ideal child OF his dreams
from the first time he set eyes on
her. Originally she had made her
success in musical shows, in which
shapely limbs were the great attrac-
ton. She went to London from
America and after some other ex-
periences obtained an engagement
as one of thee children in the first
production Of Peter Pan"
1t was then that she pleased Bar
RE SO much. In the next production
or Peter Pan" she played the title
part and made an immense success.
She proved that she possessed talent
OF serious order.
Nature has marked Barrie as
man to be blessed with many women
friends. With SO much sentiment
and SO much money he was sure to
DC favored in that way.
