Frank sat in his cell and the party

he shrugged his shoulders meaningly.
But a great detective is free to in

own theory.
Here Is His Theory.

Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, who has been
the most -talked-of women in Amer

Thaw shot Stanford White in New
York, arrived in Atlanta Thursday
for q two days engagement at the
Atlanta Theater. She came from
Birmingham in her private car in
which she will live during her stay
in Atlanta, partly to avoid notoriety,
and partly, she says. because she is
afraid of her husband.

Thaw. Preachers and other crea-

Mrs. Thaw declared that she had
left her little son, Russell, who is
four years old, with friends in the
East. and declared that no one but
herself and her intimate friends know
where the boy is staying.

Tango Modest Dance"

THE tango is as modest a dance as
has ever been invented she said.
1T is much more modest and graceful
than the old waltz, and the same is
true Of the turkey trot. OF course, I
don't mean by that the turkey trot Of
the barrooms and the slums, or even
Of some bathrooms, but the original
turkey trot and the tango are very
modest and are not objected to by
people who know what they are.
"One Of the great troubles is that
people see the acrobatic dances on the
stage and call them the tango, when
they are no more related to the tango
in reality than is the waltz or the
quadrlle do acrobatic dances my
self. with Mr. Clifford. my dancing
partner but the whirlings and twirl-
ings that are all right on the stage
should nor be done in the ballroom.
Dancers. however. are beginning to
appreciate the fact that the stage
tango is not the tango for the bali
room, and they are fast learning the
real dance"

WoMAWS LECTURE COURSE.
Broader and Bet
ter Than Ever.

Believing that the past lecture
courses conducted by the Wo-
mans Club of Hope have been
appreciated by the public, this
same organization has arranged
to hold another course during
the coming winter. The dates
will be as follows: November g.;
November 25; December %; Feb
ruary l, and February 81.
The first number of this ex-
cellent course will be held, as
stated above, on Friday evening,
November 9th. The entertain
ment will consist of a concert by
the Chicago Male Quartet. This
group of men have been together
for many years, and have APP
peared at many of the largest
Chautauquas i n the country.
They are an expensive number
and come highly recommended.
The success of this course de-
ponds upon the interest taken by
the public. The women in charge
have spared neither time nor
money to make it a success. They
have secured the country for the
best possible talent. Their pro.
gram is varied in order to satisfy
all tastes. They have been and
are trying to make this years
program more attractive and
more successful than in the past,
and we believe the public should
assist them in their efforts. Let's
all go-to every number.
