OF LEO
FRANK IMPROVED
Attending Physician Holds out Hope
for Prisoners Recovery.

Milledgeville, Ca, July 20.-The
condition of Leo M. Frank, suffering
from a serious knife wound in the
throat, inflicted by VIM. Green, a
fellow life term convict at the Geor-
gia prison farm here, remained crit
ical yesterday. DR.. G. D. Compton,
the prison physician, announced that
he was hopeful of Franks recovery,
though blood poisoning from infec-
ton was danger to be feared.
Franks temperature late yester-
day was announced as 101.S. His
was 100 and his respira-
ton 20. Earlier his temperature
was 1924.
Green, questioned further by pri-
son officials yesterday said he believ-
ed that he had been called from on
high to kill Frank whose death
sentence for Mary Phagan's murder
recently was committed by Governor
slaton, now retired. He indicated
10 remorse.
II only wish that I had more
strength" Green said. II think I
lave done my duty In this matter as
we'll as my strength allowed. I be-
ieve that God has helped me. l
Ion't think that 1 ever did wrong
n my life."
Green, although he weighs 165
pounds is partly paralyzed in his left
trm. The physicians believe that
his probably saved Franks life, as
yreen was unable to seize his victim
While he used the knife.

A gloom of sorrow has been cast
over the entire community by the
death of Mrs. Frank Fetrow.
Through the paths of life she was a
most noble woman. The two weeks
old babe has followed her to the
Great Beyond.
There is no death; the stars go
To rise upon some other shore,
And bright in heavens jeweled
They shine forever more.
And all things that for growth of
joy,
Are worthy of our love or care,
Whose loss has left us desolate.
Are safely garnered there.
And ever near us, though unseen
The dear, immortal spirits tread,
For all the boundless universe
L life-there are no dead"

DE-
STROYS TWO BARNS

Sheldon, Ia, July 20.-L5ghtning
Saturday night struck barn on the
farm of Walt Evans, about mile
and a half west of Sheldon and the
building burned to the ground. An
other barn near by caught fire and
it also burned. The barn struck was
an old one, but the last one was a
new and line building. There was al
so burned thirty tons of hay, some
grain, and three hogs. Some calves
were also injured. The horses were
driven out and saved. Tie old barn
was valued at $500 and the new one
at $1,7OO. Both were fairly we'll in
sured.
Fortunately the wind was in the
northwest and the house was saved.
Fifteen boys from Sheldon hired a
livery rig and driving to the fire,
carried to safety over 100 bushels of
corn from the crib and saved that
building, although it caught fire
several times. During the forenoon
Saturday the heaviest rain of the
season occurred and oats were badly
beaten down.
