WHAT is VIHOL?
About Which We Hear So Much
Our Druggist Tells You.

After twenty years OF study, two emf
nent French chemists discovered a meth
cd by which the alkaloids or medicinal
curative elements Of the Gods liver could
be separated from the useless oil or
grease The oil which has no medicinal
value is thrown away, but the healing,
curative properties are blended with
tonic iron and mild medicinal wine,
which makes Ninol. thus combining in
one medicine the two most world-famed
TONES.
Ninol is not secret medicine, as its
ingredients are printed on every bottle,
and in all cases where the healing, cur
ative influence of cod liver oil. or the
blood building, strengthening influence
of tonic iron is needed Vinol gives i'm
mediate benefit, for it is easily assimi-
lated and acceptable to the weakest
stomach.
For all rundown, weakened condi-
tions. and to cure chronic coughs, colds
and bronchial troubles, Vinol is unex-
cellcd. We will return your money if it
fails. Red Cross Pharmacy, Floyd G..

Justices Fish and Beck
Give a Dissenting Opinion,

Justices Fish and Beck, in their dis
senting opinion. confined themselves
for the most part to the vital contests
concerning perversion evidence and
the ruling of Judge Roam. They said:
In the case at bar the other JUS
tees say in the prevailing opinion that
the evidence of Conley as to prior
acts of lasciviousness on the part Of
defendant with other women was
properly admitted in evidence because
they tended to show a common
scheme or plan of related offenses.
We take issue with them on this prop
osition. In reference to the error of
admitting evidence of other cffenses
as showing a design or plan, or sys-
tenn. on the part of the defendant TO
commit the crime for which he is on
trial, Professor Whigmore says, The
object here is not simply to negative
any innocent intent at the time of the
act charged, but to prove pre- exist
ing design, system, plan or scheme
directed forward to the doing of that
act
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1914-02-17

and the orderly progress of the case
was resumed.
The general rule of the conduct of
the spectators during the trial of the
case will not be grounds for re-
vers of the judgment unless a rule
upon such conduct is invoked from
the judge at the time it occurred. The
applause by the spectators under the
circumstances as described in the
court, is but an irregularity not cal
culated to have been sufficiently
harmful to the defendant.
Not Error to Deny MistriaI.
1t was not an error for the court to
refuse a mistrial, particularly upon a
motion made several days after the
alleged occurrence Of disorder, and
after the case had been fully argued
and the charge of the court was about
to be delivered
into the courts presence for the pur-
pose of rendering it's verdict, the
court had the room cleared of>specta-
tors. The verdict of the jury was re-
ceived and published in the usual
manner. A request was made to poll
the jury, and after the polling had
begun loud cheering from the crowd
In the street was heard.
In order that the occurrence COM
pldlHeu Oh SDOufQ nave the erect OF
multiplying the poll of the jury, as was
claimed by the defense, it must APP
pear that its operation upon the
mindsof the jury or some of them
was of such controlling character that
they were prevented or may have
been prevented from giving a truthful
answer to the court
We think the aff1davits of the ju-
rors submitted in regard to this oc-
currence were sufficient to show that
there was no likelihood OF any such
results. This is not sufficient
grounds for a new trial.
The record in this case is volunli-
nous.
Comment on Wife Upheld.
The main opinion in reference to
the failure of Franks wife to visit
him just after his arrest the court
makes the following comment:
Exception was also taken to the
courts permitting the Solicitor Cen
eral in his argument to comment
upon the failure Of counsel for the
defendant to cross examine certain
witnesses offered by the State; and
also to comment upon the failure of
the wife of the accused to visit him
in jail.
AS to the latter the accused in his
statement had referred to the failure
of his wife to visit him soon after his
Incarceration, and had given an ex-
PLANTATION of It; and the Solicitor had
a right to comment on the statement

cause. arising from his desires and
the effort TO accomplish them
What did he mean by mot being

to by this witness, it was something
that he knew and the witness which
Indicated abnormality. II was some
something that the accused thought of
sufficient Importance TO refer to in
connection with the homicide and it's
cause.
Were the jurors to be left in the
dark as to what 1t was that he knew
and Conlcy knew that indicated such
abnormal conduct in connection with
the murder?
Why should not the jury be permit
ted TO understand what the accused
was talking about that was a subject
OF common knowledge between him
and the witness?
However black it may indicate the
conduct OF the accused to have been,
there was no reason why the jury
should be left in the dark in regard
to it.
Smile Is Drawn.
Suppose. on the trial of one accused
of murder. ii should be sought to
show that the accused was armed
with a deadly weapon, and that a
witness should testify that the ac-
cused said TO him about the time of
the homicide, you know what ! al
ways carry in my pocket"
Would there be any doubt that the
witness would be allowed to testify
that the accused had previously in
formed him that he always carried a
pistol or had on previous occasions
exhibited to him pistol IN his pocket
or on the trial OF one accused OF gam
bling in certain room, or of keeping
a gambling house there. IL the State
should introduce a witness who
should testify that the accused had
posted him on the outside of the room
and warned him against the approach
Of any stranger and had said to the
witness that the latter do what he
always did in that ROOM" would it be
contended that it would not be COM
petent to show by the witness that
the accused and others on previous
occasions had gambled in the room
While ne was watching for them as

ment of the accused?
Threw Light on Deed.
This evidence was not admissible
merely because il may have shown
previous improper conduct or crimi-
nality on the part of Frank discon-
nected from the crime OF which he
was charged. but because IT threw
light on the transaction under con-
sideration and tended to explain what
he said and did on that occasion. as

Burns to Explain
Connection With Case.

Detective William ]. Burns, accom-
panied by Mrs. Burns. will arrive in
Atlanta Wednesday morning at II
o'clock over the Nashville, Chatta-
nooga and st, Louis Railroad, and
will go to a suite of room at the
Georgian Terrace.
In the course of his lyceum lecture
at the Baptist Tabernacle Wednesday
night on american Citizenship"
Burns is expected to explain the con-
nection of himself and his agency with
the Mary Phagan murder case.
Last summer in Boston, in a con-
versatlon with President S. Russell
Bridges, Of the Alkahest, Mr.. Burns
expressed a wish to have the opportr-
nifty at some time to make an expla-
nation to the people of Atlanta of
several mysterious incidents connect
ed with the case.
1t will be recalled that representa-
tives of Burns were in the city work
ing on the case following the arrest
of Frank. and that following their
presence it was reported in the At
lanta papers that Burns himself was
coming to the city. A movement was
started to raise public fund to aid
Burns in the investigation. Then
rather suddenly all connection of the
urns agency with the case was sew
cred.

him, but upon an examination of the
arguments themselves and the COLO
quies connected with them. there was
curing a new trial.
Objection was made to the Solicitor
Generals statement that it would not
surprise him il the defense had not
put up some of their family physi-
clans as experts for the effect their
testimony might have on the jury.
The Applause in Court.
With the vast amount of testimony
before it. with the arguments and
counter arguments Interruptions, OBJ
jections and controversies, the court
can not say that the argument of the
Solicitor General complained of. even
if 1t NAV not have been thoroughly
logical or Well grounded, was an ex-
cess of the right of argument suf-
ficiently grave to warrant new trial.
Upon the grounds that the verdict
was without evidence to support it,
the court, in terse language, held that
1t was sufficient.
In reference &c applause and dis
order in the lower court, the Supreme
Court held this was not sufficient to
warrant a new trial.
new trial related to alleged disorders
occurring in the courtroom and vi
cinity during the progress of the
trial 1t was contended that one of
such disorders prevented a fair and
impartial trial. and Furthermore that
the court should have granted a mis-
trial upon the motion made in the
concluding argument.
Jury Heard only Two Outbreaks.
With reference to the various dis
orders complained of, the court was
authorized to find from the evidence
submitted that only two instances oc-
CURED within the hearing or knowl-
edge of the jury.
We deem it unnecessary to specifi-
cally refer to those occurrences which
the jury and court officers declared
did not happen within the presence of
the jury and the assistance of which
the jury did not know until after the
trial The defendants counsel COM
planned OF the conduct of the specta-
tors. whereupon the court below di-
reeted the Sheriff to find out who wa
making the noise. and presumabl,
this action was deemed satisfactory

testified to by the witness.
So far as our search has extended,
we have found no case where the
conduct and language of one accused
of crime and closely connected
Herewith by evidence could not boz
explained by showing other conduct
to which he himself referred.
One of the grounds of the motion
complains that the verdict Is without
evidence to support it, Another com
plains that the verdict Is contrary 10
the weight of evidence The court re-
cited in his order overriding the mo-
ton for a new trial that he had care
fully considered the original ami
amended motions In rendering the
judgment denying a new trial.
Roan's Expression of Doubt.
The bill of exceptions recites th9t
the judge orally stated that the jury
had found the defendant guilty; that
he (the judge) had thought about this
case more than any other case that
he had ever tried; that he was not
certain of the defendants guilt; that
with all the thought he had put on
this case he was not thoroughly con-
WINGED whether Frank was guilty or
innocent. but that he did not have to
be convinced: that the jury was con-
WINGED, that there was no room TO
doubt that; that he felt 1t his duty to
order that the motion for new trial
be overruled."
1t is insisted that the remarks made
by the judge in denying new trial
| indicated judicial disapproval Of the
verdict. We do not think so. The
jury found the accused guilty. The
court Was called upon to determins
whether under the record the defend
ant should be granted a new trial
He refused it, and the rule in such
cases is hat even II the court should
| consider a case weak. yet. II he over
rules the motion for a new trial. one
ground of which IS that the verdict is
contrary to law and evidence. his le
gal judgment expressed in overriding
the motion will control; and II there
is sufficient evidence to support the
verdict this court win not interfere
because OF the judges own expression
as to his opinion.
Request to Charge.
The lower court declined to give the
| following request to charge: No
presumption can arise against the de-
PENDANT because of failure to cross
examine any witness put up by the
State, that the defendant was guilty
