Although Franks lawyers today
would make no statement as to what

The evidence supports the verdict
and there was no abuse of discretion
in refusing a new trial"
In their dissenting opinion Chief
Justice Fish and Justice Beck held
that the trial court erred in admit
ting the testimony of James Conley
and c. B. Balton, regarding alleged
acts involving immoral conduct on
Frank part toward women prior to
the murder of the Phagan girl.
Unless an extraordinary motion for
new trial, or some other move in
behalf of the convicted man is made,
Frank will be resentenced within tle
next two weeks. The decision of the
supreme court first must be entered
as that of the trial court, after which
sentence again may be imposed.
May Live Months Yet.
Franks fight for freedom may be
prolonged in a number of ways, and
tonight It was pointed out that months
may elapse before his fate finally is
decided. According to court officials
here, it is possible that. in view of
the dissenting opinion of two of the
six Justices of the supreme court,
Franks lawyers may move to reargue
the case before that body. In the
event that such a motion was denied;
an attempt then probably would be
made to get the case before the Unit
ed States supreme court on the
grounds that Frank has been de-
prived of his liberty without due pro-
cess of law. Another course open to
Frank would be to file an extraordi-
nary motion for a new trial before the
court in which ne was convicted.
Should the court deny this motion,
an appeal could be taken to the State
supreme court AS a last resort, it
was pointed out, an appeal could be

over the State as it is and has been,
the people of Newberry were very

AS TO SMALL POX.


and News to have any controversy
with the newspapers at Laurens, OF
with the good people of Laurens, in re-
gard to the small pox situation. The
facts were stated in the last issue OF
The Herald and News, and as We stat
ed at The time we do not consider
that the small pox situation is any
more alarming in Newberry than in
almost any other section Of the State,
II was also stated that the opinion
prevailed that one of the reasons NOV
ing Laurens to quarantine was to get
out of the contract for the carnival
rather tnan on account of any small
pox situation in Newberry. The
Laurens Advertiser says: While the
people of Laurens are quite ready to
admit that the coming Of the carnival
was a very determining factor in the
decision TO quarntine against New
berry" which is practically an admis-
sion that the statement is correct that
the moving motion in quarantining
was to get out Of the contract for the
carnival. 1t is true that the Adver-
tiser adds. cit is probable that it
would have been ordered anyway al
ter conditions as do exist were
brought to light"
The Advertiser takes pleasure in quot
ing what Dr. Cromer had to say in the
Observer, and adds, "If such SEN
sible man as DR.. Cromer thinks the
situation is threatening, surely Laur-
ems had right to protect herself
against i" We have no criticism to
make of DR.. Cromer, but we will ven
ture to say that DR.. Cromer, as a cit
izen of Newberry, should have found
out from the board of health what
the condition was before writing the
few paragraphs that he did which do
intimate that the situation was ser
ious. The board of health stated last
week that there were only IA cases
in the entire town and that all of these
cases were under strict quarantine
and that there had been no deaths in
the town and that the cases now here
were about ready to be discharged.
The rumor that went out from Laur-
ems was tnat there were 400 cases,
which would indicate, of course, an

ports on small pox which have been
published. We repeat again, there is
no epidemic and in proportion there
are no more cases of small pox in New
than in many other sections of the
State, and that the extravagant re-
port sent out from Laurens, and the
quarantine placed against Newberry,
aave been an Injustice to the town
and real injury has been the result.
We have asked the board of health to
make an official statement as to the
condition.

A Detroit musician has invented a wonderful new system which enables any person or little child to learn to play the piano or organ in one eycn- ing. Even though you know abso- lutcly nothing about music or have never touched a piano or organ, you can now learn to play in an hour or TWO. People who do not know one note from another are able to play
 their favOrite music, with this method without any assistance whatever from anyone.
 This new system is called the Numeral Method We have secured
 the sole agency from the inventor, and, as we arc desirous of at once making it known n every locality,
 we are making the following special free trial and half-price offer to everyone.
 You are not asked to send any money until you have tried and are satisfied with the new method. We are willing to send 1t to you on free trial, and you will not have to pay one cent unless you desire to keep 1t. There are no express charges to be paid, as everything will be sent by mail. Simply write us letter or postcard saying: Please send me the Numcral Method on free trial" II you are satisfied after trying it, the Method and fifty different pieces of sheet music will cost you only.

 CREEK LASTS FIVE DAYS

From the Fairbanks News-Miner: A caribou run lasting five days be- ginning Sept. 2Sth, during which hundreds of caribou covered the hills around the head of Faith creek north of Chatanika is reported by San Weiss, Jack Edwards and Frlt@ Welch, who recently returned from q hunting trip in that district. They say the hills were literally alive with them and that they were travelling north. Before they passed each man in the party killed all the law allowed aud longed for their friends to be with them, for it was certainly a sight to gladden. the heart of a hunter.
 This district is noted for it's caribou. When Major MeManus Of San Francisco, in charge of the Al askan troops, was a lieutenant in 1898. he was detailed from Fort Gibbon to make an exploring trip south to the coast. He started with an Indian and an EsquimauX with reindeer. One night the rein deer were stampeded at the head of Faith creek by a caribou run and were never recovered, forcing the men to turn back in the dead of winter without a single pack ami maj McManus named Faith and McManus creeks which form tho head of the Chatanika river.
