COLLECT SOLDIERS LETTERS.

HAMBURG, May 1g-The Museum Of Hamburg History has begun the collection of soldiers letters from the front 10 relatives at home, and the elt- ters' replies, as an adjunct to its archives connected with the war.
 The aim is to get, not the writings of officers and the exceptionally well educated. but the humble comments of those who have written without any expectation that their words ever would be published and therefore were completely unconscious.
 The proponents of the plan want to get an insight into the patriotic cour- age, hate and love of peasant and citizen, worker an dstorekeeper by which they were actuated while at the front, 10 know their feelings as they thought of their homes, their relatives and their families.

Pa, in company with another girl
friend. but they could not find work
in that city. After leaving McKees-
port they journeyed to Clarksburg, w.
Va, and her friend found employment.

to help the destitute, called her home
at Braddock. and got in commulica-
ton with her father. Her story was
found to be correct and she was fur
nished transportation home. She left
this afternoon.
When asked II she was going home.
Miss Griffith replied: you bet am,

Commenting on Mr.. woodward ;
statement that three.fourths OF the
people OF Georgia. including himself
believed Frank guilty and condoning
the lynching. Mr.. Slaton said:
Similar utterances made before the
lynching naturally resulted In subse'

proposed to defend the fair name OF
Atlanta and Georgia. and in the next
breath he casts on them the most ter
rible condemnation.
Mayor Woodward suggested could
not with safety return to Georgia
within year. Such a statement IS
not only a gross reflection on the
state, but is absurd and ridiculous and
1t is further stimuative Of the mob
impulse, coming from an official who
should stand in favor Of law and or

ances Of others who expect to utilize
