sLAToN RELIES ON LENrMIE OUT


Leo Frank told Chief Lanford, to-wit that
Mary Phagan came to his office 'at from
1905 to 1910, say 12::O7" Saton also
refuses to believe what Frank told Harry
Scott, his detective, towit "that Mary Pha-
gan came to the factory at 80 p. m, to
draw her pay"
Slaton rejects Franks sworn testimony at
the inquest.
Why does Slaton abolish this testimony,
given before Frank had learned that Mon
teen Slower was at his office from -: 05 to
1910, By has oaOm time piece?
And why did Slaton argue that Magg's
eyes were good enough to see Frank, In his
inner office, but that Nonteen's were not?
If one 14-year-old, 5-dollar girl, wanting
her pay, could find the y-master, why
couldn't the other do it?
Slaton argues that Mary came after Mon
teen had gone away. But Slaton also says
that Lemmie Quinn was in Franks office
at 1920. Had Mary been assaulted by
Conley down stairs Gas Slaton argues) before
Quinn came in? If So the negro had done
1t all, In less than seven minutes, for it GER
tainly would have required couple of min
utes for Monteen to clear out, after - 10,
and not meet Mary; and it certainly would
have required couple of minutes for Conley
to hide all signs OF the crime, and get the
girls body out of sight before Quinn
came in.
Therefore, if Conley caught the girl on
her way out of the factory, knocked her
down, split her skull ripped her drawers,
did violence to her vagina, and bloodied her
parts and her clothing, he had less than
seven minutes in which to do the deed,
gather up the unconscious victim, gather up
her parasol mesh-bag, handkerchief. hat
and slippers; and to get them all out of

to have come In.
Did SlatOn realize to what an abSurditv
he was reducing his own theory, when he
put Mary in the factory some minutes
after 1910; and put the crime some minutes
before - 20?
But suppose he should claim that he
meant to be understood as contending that
Mary was assaulted and killed after Quinn
went away. All right let us see if that
theory Will hold water:
Quinn came to Franks office at - 20. Sla-
ton says. We must assume that Quinn did
not fly right in, and right out. We must
assume that Lemme fingered a bit, and
chatted a while The entrance. the STAY
and the departure, would certainly take up
few minutes of Lemmie's time. Frank
himself says that Quinn left at II % Then

Franks clock.
So, here we have the awful crime boxed
up inside of less than five minutes!
Quinn consumed several minutes after
1920 and did not see Mary on his way out.
IF Mary came in after Quinn, she was at
least a minute or two after him. Then
Mrs. White occupied minute, or so, open
ing the door, going up stairs, and glancing
at the clock, which marked II 80.
Therefore, Jim Conley had less than

It seemed more to give an atm osphere to patriotism which was cheering than to show what women should wear. Nor do I think that American women will take to this fashion. Com mbinations of blues and reds, bright buttons. abrupt hard lines and elaborate braiding will not appeal to our women.

POLL PLAY DRAWING
 LARGE AUDIENCES

The sensational success which has attended Alias Jimmy Valentine'' is due, in no small measure, to the real characters about whom Paul Arm strong wove the story of the reclaim ing of a safe cracker and through him of his pals. Jimmy Valentine, the character in the play had been crack ing safes because he had learned nothing else. When the chance came to him to leave prison and Ego straight he grabbed it. And he made good.
 The play is being witnessed by large audiences daily and the Poli Players are scoring individual hits in their presentation of it. Manager Thatcher announces that tomorrow afternoon will be souvenir day and that colored pictures of Harry Hollingsworth, the leading man, will be distributed to each woman attending. These pie lures will be contained in covers which will serve as a binder for the photos of the other favorites which will be distributed later.

CAPACITY HOUSES AT
 LYCEUM THIS WEEK

In "Forty-five Minutes from Broad way,' which is now playing at the Lyceum, the Lyceum Players have at talned new height of popularity NO attraction yet offered by them has accomplished the success that this has. Providing the brightest of sclntlllating comedy of distinctive Conan style, laugh is contained in every utterance. The catchy music of Mary Is Grand Old Name," "So Long Nary and "Forty-fve Minutes from Broadway is interpolated and it adds to the charm of the entertain ment. The dances which are also included serve to give an added in- terest.
 It is almost impossible to find one who has witnessed the performances given thus far who has not been greatly pleased. The universal com ment has been that the production is by far the best that the Players have given. Thursday afternoon there will be matinee performance. Elks' night will be observed this evening. Members of the lodge and their friends will be present. The theater will be draped with a pleasing blend ing of the lodge colors. On last even- ing, when the Chamber of Commerce showed by their attendance in large mum bers their endorsement and ap- proval of the management and the Players, the decorations were hand somely draped flags and seals of the city. Excellent seats are still to be had and may be reserved by tele- phontng to 1869.

BRAHAM GOOD AS
 AN IMPERSONATOR

Impersonating Mckinley, Washing living and dead, Braham, a character entertainer, appearing at Keeneys this week is presenting an act that is meeting with general approval His work is of a high standard and it merits the praise it is receiving. Rraham is a comedian of national reputation. For years he played inn portant roles under w. H. Crane and since entering vaudeville he has also been highly successful. The act he is now presenting is interesting His facial expression is something to marvel at. He mimics great men, whose faces are familiar to the entire civilized world and his Representations are so we'll done that the audience at times is deceived.
 '"The Geeser,' the vehicle used this week by the Fields Brothers Stock company, is easily the most preten- tious number that these popular en- tertainers have used since beginning their long engagement in this city. It is a travesty on "The Geyser," the celebrated Japanese musical comedy. The same characters are used but are burlesqued, giving the principals big opportunities to play on the disabilities of the audience. Nat Fields as Lii Hung Chang is cast most satisfactor- fly. He made Dutch China man out of this character with a most gratify- ing effect. His brother, Sol, is also we'll cast. Harry Jackson continues

Buyers Returning From Paris Openings Bring Exceedingly Wide Skirts and Colors Soldat Bleu, Navy Blue and Biege Are New Shades-Paris Dressmaking Houses Are in Full
 Swing for Americans

Fresh from Paris, the last group
 of buyers who have returned to New
 York point to uninterrupted fashion l inventions from the great French or l iginators. Paris, sartorially consider ] eG, is working full blast, with Amer l ica as an inspiration for it's labors, 1 for, say these people, it is only Amer i jeans who buy clothes now. The French do not, nor, surely, do the l English. Russians cannot, and Ger
 mans-would not.
 There seems, from the reports of 1 these buyers, to be predominance of i the 1S3O-'42 fashions, with tight fitting ! bOdice and zouave flare below, of the 1 Empire effests and more especially of 1 the 1856 full sl1irted modes. All skirts 1 will be very full and exceedingly sh ort, ] som etimes reaching ten inches from the ground. The popular colors will be navy blue, beige and soldat blue for street wear.
 But rhere is an interesting differ ence expressed as to the details of the happenings in the fashion world. A. F. Harrison of Stein and Blaine, traces to American designers certain changes which have been noticeable in Paris modes. America has exercised a great influence, naturally, as it is only for Americans that the suits and gowns have been created" said MT. Harrison.
 'I think our Fashion Fete this win ter had an influence on French fash ions. One can see it in the designs of several of the Paris customers. The new>tailleur coat which they are show ing is but a reproduction of what was originally an American fashion Straight effects, and the short coat with the hip fulness. And then the prevailing air of simplicity. All the suits are simple.'
 Evening Wear Elaborate.
 In dresses there is none of this sim plicity. Much lace, and much tulle and even muslin, for evening dresses, explained Morris Weingarten, trying to be calm during the inspection of the custom house offical. Dresses all in the 1856 style, with many lace ruffles, floating out; the bodice cut square, tending to round The three-piece suit will be very popular Some. of them will have the princess dress, with a little bolero jacket. Others vii have longer coats-generally about twelve inches below the waist
 "The jackets will be Empire. They ripple from the high waist to full me- dium length. Faille silk, peau de soie changeable faille and wool and silk gabardine are used in these suits I could see no influence of American fashion"
