FRANK GETS AN APPEAL.

Justice Lamar, of the Supreme
Court, on Monday granted an appeal
from the decision from the Georgia
Feneral Court which refused to release
Leo M. Frank on a habeas corpus
proceedings. Frank is under death
sentence for the murder of Mary
Phagan, an Atlanta factory girl.
The celebrated case now comes be-
fore the highest court in the land, a
goal for which Franks attorneys have
been fighting for weeks, and which
was once previously denied them, al
though on another phase of the pro-
ceedings.
In the presents proceedings, Franks
attorneys argued to the Federal Court
of Georgia that state courts in which
Frank had been convicted of murder,
had lost jurisdiction over their client,
because he had not had fair trial,
and had been convicted in an atmos-
phere of violence. They asked the
Georgia Federal Court to release him
on a habeas corpus writ. Justice
Newman refused and declined to grant
an appeal to the Supreme Court. The
appeal Justice Lamar has granted per-
mits them to bring their case up for
hearing in Washington.

Jam1making time is beginning and it
is a good plan to always crease the
bottom Of the preserving pan with best
olive oil before putting il the fruit,
for It prevents the jam from burning.
Also add a lump of butter about as big
as a walnut for every six pounds Of
fruit, putting It in when the jam comes
to the boil after the sugar has been

BY the way, one should never let
