EoR ST. PArRIck,s Day.

St Patrick's day is an ideal day 10
entertain. for nothing is prettier than
a color scheme of green and white
for table decorations and to carry it
out in all the appointments through
out the house and in the luncheon or
dinner menu.
The luncheon cloth may be trim
med with shamrocks and harps. fol
lowing the border of the cloth. while
the centerpiece may be a basket OF
white flowers interminsied with green
OF pretty green fern.
The pace cards may be in the form
OF little green hats with pipes in the
band. or small white cards DESIGNED
in green. while the bon bon dishes
may be in the form OF pigs. which
stand on a larger paper shamrock.
and should be filed with many pretty
little things displayed in the stores
now which would make a table for a
St. Patrick day luncheon or dinner
look very pretty.
Here are some reci,2s which could
be used in a st. Patricks day lunch

Have you ever stopped TO think that
there must be something wrong with
you to make your husband cross
Be neat about your person, keep your
home attractive, have your meals on
time, try to look at things from your
husbands point of view. and I am
sure that you can make married life
a success. And remember that the
easiest way to overcome a husband IS
to give him love and sympathy.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: Is it proper
for a boy and girl to stand on the
street and talk?
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1915-09-09
THE eJEFFERSONHAN

the public will believe anything they allege
against us, that these three culprits do not
take the trouble to lie consistently.
On March 90, 1915, Dan Lehon-aoho qcas
fired from the Chicago police, for criminal
conduct t0aOard q Wonaaa-told a San Fran
cisco reporter that
II am prepared to prove, that the lock of
hair was placed on the handle of lathe
by newspaper reporter"
Now, what was the game of this rascal,
and his "Chief," Burns?
It was, to find reporter who 4oouzd
swear that he put the hair on the machine,
ito score a scoop"
But Burns, and Lehon, could never find
reportorial Ragsdals or Barber, to make a
false affidavit, and earn 5000 from the Man
in the Moon.
The thing was too difficult, and dangerous
why?
Because nobody in the factory had hair
like that which Barrett found on his ma
chine-nobody except Mary Phagan.
The reportorial Ragsdale would have had
first, to tell how he got the hair, and qohy
he picked out Bametts machine handle to
hang it on.
No reporter could ever be found who could
be hired to undertake this ticklish Job.
"Ain't it so,,' Dan Lehon?
No doubt you tried hard but you couldn't
come it.
Let us now consider the crazy tumble of
words which Burns put into the Cleveland
LeQder:
Nothing stands out more glaringly than
certain perjured testimony" of reporter"
who "testifed, not mader oath!'
This blatant BOBBY apparently thought
that the public would believe him, when he
said the States case against Frank was
made out by newspaper reporter, who was
not sworn, when he gave this "perjdred tes-
timony."
Is it possible that the editor of the Leader
believes murder case (or any other) can
be made out, anyachere, by witnesses mot
under oath?"
Does the Leader think it treats us fairly
when it publishes such manifest falsehoods?
Burns goes further, and the truth fares
worse: he says
This hair was adroitly distributed on the
rung of ladder that arose from an ash
heap, and on a turning lathe adjacent"
Heaven grant us patience!
There was no ash-heap in the basement;
the foot of the ladder rested on the floor of
the basement, and reached up to the scuttle-
hole IN the floor, above; the turning lathe
was on the second f100r and it was at least
200 feet away from the rung of the ladder,
on different floor, and in different part
of the factory.
There never was thread of hair found
on the ladder, and none anywhere else, ex-
cept on the lathe-handle, in the metal room,
near where the blood spots were to be seen,
the first thing, on Monday morning, after
the murder
Burns tells the Leader
"Contrary to all the laws of evidence, this
unswom evidence crept into the case"
| wonder what the managing editor was
Ann zinn q hnut Iuhnr he Lot tic nla-,,..l r4o
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1915-09-09
haze smashed his oocn theory, and his own

line of evidence.
Burns is such BOBBY, that he doesn't even
know when he talks self-evldent bosh.
"Yet to me, and to others, this reporter
admitted that he had planted the hair on
the ladder rings, and on the lathe"
Planted some auburn hair on the ladder
in the basement, and planted more, two
floors above, on the handle of 4. F. Bar
retts machine
O the inexhaustbe articles of ingenius
reporters-and of truthful detectives
Here was a reporter who either went to
the morgue, and pulled handful Of hair
from the head Of the dead girl, for the sake
of "a plant" and a sensational SCOOP or
who obtained hair, from living auburn
haired woman, which was so much like Mary
Phagan's auburn hair, that her step father
swore it was hers, and the girls in the fac
tory, who had worked with Mary came run
ming out of the metal room, Monday morn
ing, with the cry
1--WE hare found some of Na1yS hair on
the handle of Barett's macbine!"
Marvellous reporter! Wonderful detec-
tive!
Burns asks, with virtuous indignation
'EVas this reporter called to captain his
pe1jured testimony9 lie qoas not"
Called where? Hadn't he already "crept
into the case?"
Hadn't he, ''in violation of all the laws Of
evidence" been allowed to give the court,
and jury, ''this unsworn testimony"
The great Rosser ought to have cross
examined this ubiquitous reporter, who
robbed the head of dead girl of it's auburn
tresses
Rosser examined Jim Conley the whole
day; and he spent perhaps thousand ques-
tions on Harry Scott: why did Rosser per
NIT this guilty reporter to escape a terrific
fire of cross examination?
With increasing disgust and Indignation,
Burns says
'"And today he'-the prodigal reporter
"is a news gatherer in good standing in At
lanta's school of journalism"
The most unkindest cut of all /!
The prodigal reporter, who pulls hair out
of the head of murdered women, and plants
it where it may hang innocent men, is in
good standing in Atlantas school of jour
nalism!
AHanta's school, mind you.
