Wife, Father-in-Law and Dr..
David Marx Call on Prisoner
Hour After Ruling.

Leo Frank, in his cell at the Full
ton County Tower, received the news
that the Supreme Court had refused
to grant him a new trial with the
calmness and resignation that has
characterized his attitude since the
beginning of the famous case. He
was told of the decision by DR.. David
Marx and j. c. Lowe, Mrs. Franks
cousin, who arrived at the Tower at
11:40 o'clock, more than an hour after
the decision was handed down, and
went direct to Franks cell.
At IL O'Clock, Mrs. Frank and her
brother, Montague Selig. entered the
Tower, accompanied by two other
relatives of the condemned man.
Mrs. Frank was pale, but composed,
and her eyes were red, as though she
had been weeping. The party went
direct to the cell, Joining Rabbi Marx
and Mr.. Lowe.
Father-in Law at Jail.
Half an hour later, Emil Selig, Mrs.
Franks father, arrived and was
shown to the CELL Mr.. Selig refused
to make any comment on the decision
Of the court.
Rabbi Marx and Mr.. Lowe, ac-
companied by two other members of
the party, came down from Franks
cell after spending As minutes. They
refused to make any comment on the
case, or give the newspaper men any
idea Of Franks attitude when he
was told of the decision.
1t was stated authoritatively, how
ever, that Frank received the news
calmly and was the least moved per-
son in the cell,

office of the Tower first, including
DR.. Marx and Mr.. Lowe and the
mined to keep up their spirits.
Mrs. Frank Remains at Jail.
Mrs. Frank and her father re-
NAMED with Frank for several hours
and emphatically refused. to discuss
the case.
Frank was given an inlsling that
the fight had gone against him fully
an hour before Rabbi Marx or any
Of his relatives arrived at the Tower.
To reporters who asked for a state
ment at 1910 o'clock, Frank sent
back word that he could see no one
and had no statement to make. To
the jailor he said:
IT'S just another rumor. / don't
believe a decision has been rendered
yet"
M. F. Goldstein, close personal
friend of Frank and law partner of
Frank Hooper, of the prosecution,
entered the Tower at 1926 o'clock
and spent Is minutes in the cell with
Frank. his wife and Mrs. Franks
father
Frank Calm, Says Visitor.
When he left at 1850 he declared
that Frank was perfectly calm and
confident that in the end justice
would triumph and he would be freed
Frank received the news as calmly
as though 1t were an everyday event"
said Mr.. Goldstein. He is perfectly
composed, and confident that he will
be ultimately cleared of all suspicion
of guilt. His wife shares his conf
dence. She is of course shaken by
the decision, but she is composed and
calm.

lutely innocent man can be ultimate

NEW YORK, Feb. 17.-An army Of
10000 men to-day attacked the piled

Exceptions to the Rule.
We come now to consider the eX-
ceptions TO the general rule declaring
the admissibility of evidence of the
conduct of the accused in othert rams
actions or of the commission of crimes
other than the one for which he is on
trial. In the recent work of Wharton
on Criminal Evidence" section 81
volume !, tenth edition, the excep-
lions are set forth as follows:
Relevancy as part of res gestae.
Relevancy to prove Identity of per-
son or crime.
Relevancy to prove scienter or glul-
ty knowledge.
Relevancy to prove intent.
Relevancy TO show motive.
Relevancy to prove system.
Relevancy to prove malice.
Relevancy to rebut special defense.
Relevancy in various particular
crimes.
Opinion of Majority Attacked.
In the opinion OF the majority of
the court, ii is sought to be shown
that the evidence of the witness Con-
ley as to the conduct of Frank with
other women on different occasions
prior OF the killing of Mary Phagan
was admissible because fallink within
two of the we'll recognized exceptions
to the general rule which excludes
evidence as to other offenses than the
one for which the defendant is being
tried
1t is urged that the evidence of
Conley falls within the exception to
show motive and also within the ex-
ceptlon to prove a scheme. plan or
system. In the prevailing opinion it
is said:

admissible both on the subject of mo-
tive and of plan, scheme or system"
and

Mr.. Selig, Franks father in law
left the Tower at 1:15 o'clock, after
spending more than an hour in the
cell with Frank and his wife. Mr.
Selig refused to make any statement
beyond declaring that none of Frank $
attorneys had yet called on him and
he didn't know when they were com

Hope For Bald
Heads
Well Known Politician Nearly
Bald Now Has Heavy
Growth of Hair.
Tells How He Did It.

A Western politician, well known
on account of his badness and his
ready wit. surprised his friends by
appearing with a heavy growth of
hair; many OF his friends did not
know him. and others thought he had
a wig. On being asked how he did
1t, he made the following statement:
II attribute the growth of my hair to
the following simple recipe which any
lady or gentleman can mix at home:
To a half pint of water add 1 ounce
of Bay Rum. a small box of Barbo
Compound and. "a ounce of Glycerine.
Apply to the scalp two or three times
a week with the finger tips. 1t not
only promotes the growth of the hair,
but removes dandruff, scalp humors
and prevents the hair from falling
out. 1t darkens streaked, faded, gray
hair and makes the hair soft and.
glossy These ingredients can be
purchased at any drug store at very
little cost and mixed at home"
