the ninth ground for a new trial,
which was submitted on the afiidavit
given by Miss Ruth Robinson, one
of the States character witnesses
and former employee at the fac
tory.
Miss Robinson charges that the
Solicitor, who interviewed her In his

her by insisting that she knew Of
the alleged imnloralities Of Frank
after she had denied having any
knowledge Of anything derogatory 70

She declares that she was shocked

and that she never heard such insult

borers about the pencil factory as was
used to her by the Solicitor in HIS pri-

She adds that at the time she be-

she had no right to resent 1t except by

that she killed Sid Chapman and de-

honor. Mrs. Charles Chapman, niece
IL the slain man. was released when
arraigned here for preliminary trial
Her mother, Mrs. Lizzie starnes, and
her husband, Charles Chapman, who
had been arrested in connection with
the killing, were also freed.
1t is probable that the Grand Jury
will investigate the case at the next
term of Gordon Superior Court, but
an indictment is not expected, as
sympathy and public sentiment are
with the woman.
Mrs. Chapman's Confession.
When the young woman took the
stand to make her statement, the
crowded courtroom was tense with
suppressed excitement
Il am the one that killed Sid
Chapman" she began. Il killed him
because he attempted to outrage my
virtue. On Friday evening before the
killing. while my mother was out
milking he made improper proposals
to me and repulsed him, but he
said he would finally have his way.
My mother came in at that time and
our conversation ceased. ] said Moth

knew it would worry her.
He was her brother and my uncle.

BUCHU fine FOR
WEAK KIDNEYS
Mixed With Juniper Is Old Folks
Recipe for CIogged Kidneys
and Backache,

Most folks forget that the kidneys.
like the bowels, get sluggish and
clogged and need a flushing occa-
sionally, else we have backache and
dull misery in the kidney region, Sc
we're headaches, rheumatic twinges,
torpid liver, acid stomach, sleepless-
ness and all sorts of bladder disor-
ders, dixzy spells, spots before the
eyes, frequent desire to urinate.
To avoid above troubles, you simply
must keep your kidneys active and
clean, and the moment you feel any
of the above symptoms get good
sized bottle OF Stuart's Buchu and
Juniper Compound from any good
drug store, take a tablespoonful in
glass of water after meals. Stop
eating sweets or sugar. In a few
days your kidneys viii then act fine
and natural Stuart's Buchu and Ju-
niper is harmless to flush clogged
kidneys and stimulate them to nor
NAL activity. It also neutralizes the
acids in the urine so 1t no longer
hurts to pass water, thus ending
bladder disorders.
Everybody should take Stuart's Bu-
chu and Juniper now and then to
keep their kidneys clean. It's old
folks recipe, and be sure the drug
gists give you Stuart's.

In ground No. IA, particularly in the
| light of the new discovery that one
of them bears the carbon tracery OF
the signature Of H. r. Becker, former
master mechanic in the factory.
The improbability that such pad,
which was used in 1909 by Becker,
should be in the Office OF Frank
rather than in the basement where
all discarded and used pads were
taken, is set forth In more than two
pages of typewriter manuscript

The new testimony of Miss Helen

ters into the new motion.
The testimony Of ]. M. Duffy, who
declares that he was led into giving
false and misleading testimony by
the Solicitor, forms the basis for the
concluding ground. Duffy declares
that Dorsey bullied him into saying
that when he cut his hand in an ac-
cident at the factory none of the
blood could have dropped on the
floor near the ladies' dressing room
On the contrary, Duffy now testi-
Hes. his hand did bleed considerably
and II Is quite likely that blood drop

says that when he was called to Dor
sey's office the Solicitor said that
Lemmie Quinn and boy named
Charlie had testified that Duffy hao
cut his hand badly and had let a loi
OF blood drop near the ladies' dress

service OF the notice in reality Is
merely To fix and hold the date for
the hearing. as any other new evil
dence that may be obtained IN the

and included In the original motion.
In short. it appears from the tenor
OF the motion that the defense Is
masking its batteries, and by no
means uncovering the full power OF
"a the
States Time Theory Upset.
BY the combination OF this array Of
abb witnesses, the seferse believes
that II has established convincingly
the guilt OF Coniey and the innocence
OF Leo Frank. Jones, who Is Conley 9
cousin, now admits that he did not
sec Conley that afternoon at all.
The afiidavits, II they are taken by
the court al their face value, show
that Conley did not leave the factory
at 1880 o'clock, but that Instead ne
was hanging about the basement until
long after ? o'clock.
They also show that Frank. instead

STATE ROAD BEE DAY
A CHANCE FOR FARMERS
EXCELLENT WORK MAY BE DONE

The problem of keeping roads in

matter confronting township boards.
But the fact is that ii is the simplest
thing i'm the world TO keep country
roads in condition provided the farm
ers owning farms along the roads will
listen 10 reason and aid in the work
The split log drag has proven this
over and over again but still country
roads are proverbially a disgrace.
In the hope of prevailing on farm
trs To take a more personal interest
in their own roads, Governor Ferris
has proclaimed June and >, Thurs
dav and Friday OF this week as days
for a road bee, urging all rural resi-
dents 10 get out and exert themselves
TO bring their roads up 10 standard
The township road officials have been
working on the matter and feel GER
tain that every farmer in this portion
OF the country will aid in the work and
observe the two days set apart as
state road bee days.
At least several farmers have al
ready decided to assist in the work
and will commence tomorrow morning
beuering the roads in the vicinity OF
their farms.
