"HINKY DINK'S" BAR NOW
A SOFT DRINK EMPORIUM
Famous Chicago First Ward Saloon
Started 22 Years Ago.

CHICAGO.-Every drop in the
house having been sold at II 80
O'Clock the night before prohibition
the manager of the Workingman's
Exchange" better known throughout
the country as "Hinky Drinks" place,
held up his hand and shouted;
Everybody out! We're going to
close up" ~
Expostulations were useless on the
part of the three-deep crowd at the
long bar, and thus ended the most
famous drinking resort in the coun-
try. "Hinky Drinks place" was started
twenty-five years ago by Michael
Kenna, alderman of the first ward. He
had been in the saloon business for
about thirty-fve years, but the place
where he presides in person is a block
away and too swell for the "finks"
who patronize the Exchange" Any
''bo" could get drink there between
5 and o'clock in the morning for
nothing and its patrons voted the al
derman fright gazabo," as we'll as
voting for him on election day.

AM GLAD | KILLED
HIM." SAYS YOUNG GIRL
SHOOTS WELL-KNOWN ATTOR-
NEY TO DEATH, AND CALM
LY DESCRIBES CRIME.

CHICAGO.-"Sorry? Sorry after
what he did to me? l should say not!
He wrecked my life and he has paid
for it."
This was the amazing declaration
of a seventeen-year-old girl, who was
found today standing beside the body
of Benjamin E. Burr, well-known at
torney, as Burr lay dying on the floor
of his private office.
The girl, Miss Margaret Seitha-
mier, turned to those who rushed into
the office, and, throwing a pearl-han-
died revolver on the body of the dy-
ing man, declared:
Don't be afraid. There's no more
bullets. The pity is that more didn't
hit him. He deserves to die. He ruin
ed me and wouldn't keep his promise
to marry me"
Burr was shot in the throat and
back. He was rushed to st. Luke's
hospital, where he died on an opera
ting table.
Meanwhile Miss Seithamier and
her half sister, Miss Marie Larson,
~ years old, dlVOfcee ana former
friend of Burr, who had accompanied
the girl to Burr's office, had been
taken to Central station to be ques-
toned by police. She was informed
of Burr's death during the course of
her narrative.
The girl told her tale in spright-
ly fashion, pausing from time to
time to pat her hair into place under
modish little sailor hat and to
smooth her blue dress over her knees.
Burr's version of the affair never
will be known, as he died before he
could make statement. The only
words he uttered after the shooting
were:
please, Honey, don't shoot
again"
In response the girl pulled the
trigger again and again.

WEAVER AND FLYNT
MAY ENTER RACE
DAWSON AND GRIFFIN MEN BE-
ING DISCUSSED AS GUBERNA-
TORIAL CANDIDATES.

ATLANTA, Ga.-James D. Weav-
err, of Dawson, Terrell county, and
J. ]. Flynt. state senator from Spald-
ing county, are looming up as prob
able candidates in the next race for
governor of Georgia to succeed Hugh
NJ. Dorsey.
Neither Mr.. Weaver nor Mr.. Flynt
has made any definite decision; how
ever, both have stated that they are
considering the matter seriously and
will issue their announcements in a
short time if they decide to run
Several days ago it became known
that friends of Mr.. Weaver were
urging him to enter the race, and it
is believed probable that he will try
for the office, as business man and
not as a politician.
Mr. Flynt authorized the statement
that he will make his decision after
the legislative session has closed.
loo Early says Flynt.
''It is little too early for me to
decide the matter definitely at the
present time" he said. Il think it
would be more appropriate to wait
until matters of great Importance
that will come before me in connec-
ton with the senate have been dis
posed Of"
Mr.. Flynt has been in the state
legislature for nine years, and is a
former president of the senate. He
is chairman of the state democratic
executive committee, chairman of
the Sixth district agricultural col
lege and q director Of the Georgia
Experiment Station. He is perhaps
one of the best known. figures in
Georgia's public life, and is we'll
versed in all matters of legislation
affecting the state government.
Mr.. Weaver is one of the best
known men and one of the most sue
cessful farmers in Georgia. He is vice
president of the Georgia Farmers
Union and has been mayor of Daw-
son. He is a graduate of Emory col
lege, Oxford.
Three Now Ia Race.
Three other we'll known men have
already entered the race, although
they have not issued formal an
nouncement. They are Clifford Walk
err, attorney general of Georgia; A.
O. Blalock, internal revenue collec-
tor, and John N. Holder, speaker of
the house.
Fermor Barrett, of Toccoa, sena-
tor from the Thirty-frst district,
George B. Davis, of Dublin, and
John B. Hutcheson, of Jonesboro,
probably will be candidates for the
office of state attorney general to
succeed Clifford Walker, who will be
forced to resign when he enters the
race for governor. Both men are
reported to have the matter under
serious consideration, and it is ex-
pected that their formal announce
ments will be made shortly.

dig up this fact and insist that here,
at last, is the reason for any increase
that may come to pass in the price of
oil. They may neglect to specify that
it is olive oil, but a sincere bolshevist
is not going to bubble about nom
essential facts when fundamentals are
the issue.
Mr.. Rockefeller told his audience
that his health was juvenile and that
this spoonful of olive oil mixed with
nine holes of golf daily were wholly
responsible.
Eyes" chortled Mr.. Rockefeller as
he shook Eddie's hand, "and / hope
you live to be eighty and be well,
and | hope you live to be ninety and
well. And then hope you live to be
one hundred and then you will just
begin to live, for that's what / ex-
pect to do"
You can see for yourself what the
socialists are going to do with that
sort of stuff as an inspiration.
Then the oil king told Eddie and
his fifty piece New York military
band about the piano and Mother
Rockefeller.
II have loved music always" he
said. 81 never could understand,
though, how a man could make notes
and write music without playing the
instrument"
Whereat the earnest lad who plays
the bass drum for Eddie knocked
the assemblage cold as follows:
"And believe US, Mr.. Rockefeller,
we wish we could make the notes
you make"
When order was restored the band
played Coward, Christian Soldiers"
At Mr.. Rockefeller's request they
played Smiles"
''You see," he said, "I'm up to
date. Have to be with grandchildren
growing up"
After Eddie and his band were well
on their way to the railroad station
Mr.. Rockefeller and 100 guests went
indoors and ate. Dispatches from
Tarrytown have it that there was
cake on which eighty candles were
burning. The Rockefeller grandchll-
dren blew them out just as democrat
ically as any other grandchildren
would. using nothing but lungs to pro
duce the wind.

JOHN D. WISHED
TO Be A MUSICIAN
SAY TORTURED PIANO DROVE
HIM TO OIL, WHICH HE NOW
DRINKS TO LIVE LONG.

NEW YORK, N. WHEN John
d. Rockefeller was a little boy oil
meant nothing TO him. 1t is to be as
sumed that he knew it was some
thing the women folk put into lamps,
but his interest was entirely passive.
He decided that he'd become must
clan. Whereupon he selected the
piano as the medium through which
he would hand the world his genius.
He attacked the Rockefeller piano
with vigor. Six hours each day that
defenceless instrument was subjected
to the whims and fancies of young
John, until finally Mother Rockefel-
Ter took a hand. Mr.. Rockefeller ad-
mitted yesterday that the result of
the daily sessions drove his mother
crazy. He added that he in turn was
driven out of the house and that his
mother was the persuader.
Decided to Leave Art.
Thus bafled John D. Rockefeller
decided to leave art fiat. Whether to
spite his family or because he had to
go to bed in the dark by way of pun
ishment he decided to go into the
wholesale oil business-and look
what happened! It's enough to make
anybody hate music. Think what
might have happened to Bobby Ed
wards if his mother had been firm
about ukeleles.
The foregoing revolutionary facts
about John D. Rockefeller were is
sued by Mr.. Rockefeller himself at
Pocantico Hills yesterday. He was
celebrating his eightieth birthday,
which occurs today. AS far as can be
gathered he celebrated it yesterday
because ne had nothing to do, while
today he sets forth for Seal Harbor,
Maine.
But, as startling as these facts
are, they become puny by COMPARE
son with secrets about the Rockefel-
Ter life that follow. Eddie Goldman's
fifty piece New York military band
were the guests of Mr.. Rockefeller
yesterday, and just to be a good fell
low Eddie induced the gang to play
a few selections. They held forth in
jazz and the classics until Mr.. Rookie
Teller and his family were entirely
satisfied that Eddie was there, and
then their host RECALLED them with
facts that will Immediately be
propriated by every socialist in the
country for the fall campaign.
Eddie's men were a bit at odds
about Mr. Rockefeller's exact words,
but they were unanimous in their
statements that he let fall the fact
that not only is oil good for lamps
and machines but it is one of the
principal reasons for his living to be
eighty years old. Mr.. Rockefeller

WILSON ISSUES
STATEMENT ON
VICTORY LOAN

President Wilson authorizes the
following statement:
"For two anxious years the Amer
lean people have striven to fulfill the
task of saving our civilization. By
the eXertion of unmeasureo power
they have quickly won the victory
without which they would have re-
mained in the field until the last
resource had been exhausted. Bring
ing to the contest strength of spirit
made doubly strong by the righteous
ness of their cause, they devoted them
selves unswervingly to the prosecu-
tion of their undertaking in the full
knowledge that no conquest lay in
their path excepting the conquest of
right.
Today the world stands freed from
the threat of militarism which has so
long weighed upon the spirit and la
Dor of peaceful nations.
But as yet we stand only at the
threshold of happier times. To en-
ter we must fulfill to the utmost the
engagements we have made. The VIC
tory Liberty Loan is the indispensable
means. Two years ago we pledged
our lives and fortunes TO The cause
for which we have fought. Sixty
thousand of our strongest sons have
redeemed for Us that pledge of blood.
To redeem in full, faith the promise
of this sacrifice we now must give
this new evidence of our purpose
