SAVE WILLIAM PENN's CHAIRS
National HeirIooms, About to Fall
Apart, Have Been Repaired
by Blind Women.

Two quaint and graceful chairs that
once belonged to William Penn have
Just been repaired by two women who
have never seen the chairs, says the
Philadelphia Ledger. The two women
are inmates Of the Pennsylvania In
dustrial Home for Blind Women. The
chairs are preserved in the east room
Of independence hall, on the second
door. Year by year the cane bottoms
Of the famous old relics have been
gradually cracking and falling out.
The committee in charge decided that
unless the cane was replaced the
woodwork might soon collapse. But
they did not dare to let the chairs
be taken out of Congress hall.
So they sent for Miss Ira Frost, mis-
tress of handicraft at the Industrial
Home for Blind Women, and she
brought with her to the room two of
the blind women who understood chair
repairing. The work was peculiarly
difficult, for it was impossible to erect
in Congress hall the Gaming table need
ed to hold the chairs firmly in place,
and, moreover, their woodwork was
soft with age. But the deft seeing
fingers" of the bling women did the
work in spite of all the difficulties, and
nov the precious William Penn chairs
are safe.

They were wholly independent acts, hav-
ing, as we think, absolutely no connection
with the ofense charged in the Indictment"
On that subject the majority of the Court
held, (see page 244) that when States
witness had sworn that Frank said, "You
know [ amt built like other men, it was not
improper to let him explain qchat FRAME
meant.
The majority of the Court also held that
these various independent acts of lascivious-
ness IN the factory tended to prove "his de-
sign or scheme at that place, and tended to-
prove the identify of the criminal"
In other words, when the evidence showed
that somebody had made sexual assault
upon Mary Phagan, and had killed her to
prevent disclosure of the crime, it was adj
Missile to prove that Leo Frank was in the
habit Of acting lasciviously IN that place,
the evidence Of his recent lasciviousness, IN
that place, tending to connect him with the
assault on Mary Phagan.
I thus put you fairly in possession of-the
point which divided the Court; and think
you will realize that the point was one OF
minor Importance.
The dissenting Justices objected to the
evidence as to what Frank was seen to have
been doing with women, when the witness
peeped through the key-hole; also to the ev-
idence Of Dalton's coming to the factory to
indulge With women at the same time frank
did
EuczuS;ve Of these t2Uo pieces Of testimony,
there was abundant evidence in the record to
prove that Frank was man OF double life
and lascivious character.
One of has oacn acit7aosses, Miss Irene Jack
son, on discrimination, made Frank out
to be man of diseased pru15e1ecy.
So many of his former employees sWore
(virtuallv5 to his attempts to have illicit re-
latons with them, that no uror could doubt
that the man was abnormal, ravenous de-
generate whom natural methods could not
satisfy
One of the girls made affidavit that Frank
proposed Sod0ny to her the second day she
went to work for him. No attempt was
made to impeach any of these girls, and
Rosser was afraid to cross-examine them.
What was he afraid OF!
Use Y0ur common sense.
LAWYERS and laymen will therefore per-
ceive that however right the two justices
may have been in Directing to the testimony
of Dalton, and to a small portion of the ev-
idence of Conley, that evidence was merely
cumulative, an addition to other eviderce,
which was not objected to, and which was
unQuestonably admissible.
Without Dalton and without the key-hole
mess the Jury had enough to know that Leo
Frank was abnormally 1ustful, and that ne
had been lusting after Mary Phagan.
Refusing to send her pay to her by Helen
Ferguson on Friday, he made it necessary
for Mary to come to his office on Memorial
day, when the factory would be shut down.
Conley sworo that Frank gave him his in
structions as to closing on the girl, after he
stamped" the floor, and by most remark
able providence Mrs. Hattie Waites swore
she saw Frank in close talk with the ne

With criminal negligence, Rosser and Ar

In public opinion throughout the Union,
Georgia has been condemned for an unjust
verdict, an unfair trial, and a technical
Judgment Of our Supreme Court, when the
facts clearly demonstrated the sole guilt of
the drunkest niger that ever swiIled rot
gut.
They say the 'mob" stood up in the
courtroom, and threatened the jury: that
the Judge was as much terrified by our 'bood
lust" as the jury was. and that our Supreme
Court passed on nothing save the dry points
of law, not reviewing the evidence and not
expressing any opinion as to its sufficiency.
This is the Indictment against us, first
made in Golfers, by the Hesslan from Mon
tana, {. 7. Connolly
In the wake of this mendacious hireling,
came Macdonald of the Western press and
after these, came trooping scores of scrib-
bIers who took their facts, from the arrant
and abominable lies of Connolly and Mac
donald.
Use your Reason! Call upon your Com
mon Sense.
Don't you hnooc that Franks lawyers could
not have lost their case, at every turn, in all
the Courts, # It had not been a desperately
bad case?
Don't you An01c that the evidence on which
Connolly Burns, Hearst and Straus have &C
quilted Frank at the bar of public opinion,
IS different from the e0idcace upon achich the
jury acted?
Where did that hired cohort of Hessians
get the evidence which they have used in
fooling the public?
THEY made 1t up! They took the various
lies of Burns. of W. E. Thomson, Of Luther
Rosser, and of the excited Jews of Atlanta;
and out of the medley of falsehood, they
have made the abhorrent noise which caused
other states to turn against Georgia.
Are you willing to be governed by the Of
