Miss Ruth Cooper, a pretty seven
teen-year-old girl of Roanoke, Va,
who declared that she had been forci-
bly, introduced into the underworld
against her will, Recorder George
Johnson Saturday afternoon bound
Mrs M. D. Beard, of "a Houston
street, to the state courts on a
charge of running a disorderly house.
Miss Cooper was the only witness
that testified against Mrs. Beard, and
she related a pitiful story Of how
Mrs. Beard had professed to want
to take care of her, when she had
lost her position and friends, and had
no place to go.
II came to Atlanta three weeks
ago." said Miss Cooper, land 1 met
Mrs Beard, who told me that she
would give me a home with her until
1 could find work. All went we'll for
a short time, until 1 had spent all
my money and had no work.
'"Then Mrs. Beard suggested some
awful things to me, and when 1 re-
fused, she attempted to introduce me
to the underworld against my will
it was awful, and the first chance /
got 1 escaped and reported her to the
police"

ATLANTIAN DIES
IN WRECK; CAUSE

Causes of the derailment which

way, at Copeland's crossing Friday
afternoon, and resulted in the death
of Engineer julius E. Boston, of At
lanta. had not been established Sat-
urday morning.
J. A. Baldwin. superintendent of
the railway company, declared that
investigation thus far had failed to
reveal the reason for the derailmenl.
The CHIEF engineer of the line was
al the scene of the wreck early Sat
urday, making an investigation, bur
at the hour this edition went to
press he had rendered no report.
Mr.. Baldwin denied the theory, at
first advanced, that the train was
running at an unusual speed.
.The Flyer was running about
thirty miles an hour he said, "ac-
cording to our information. and ac-
cording to every indication. 1t was
three hours late. and having lost it's
right of way was proceeding with
caution. The Atlanta division is
known to be uneven. and difficult to
run, and a speed greater than thirty
five miles an hour is very unusual
there. We do not know what caused
the wreck A full report will be made
later. 1t is a very regrettable cir
cumstance. since Mr.. Boston was one
of our best pilots and an excellent
man"
The derailment occurred at 2:3O
o'clock Friday. Many of the passen-
gers were Atlantians. butsnobody was
hurt. other than Mr.. Boston; John

broken arm and bruises. and J. j.

more money than 1 ever laid eyes on

open door. Well. I blew. Who
Wouldn't"
First he went to Camden. N. j.,
bought clothes there, and then came
to New York. He intended to go west
and loaf a bit" but he read in the
papers that he was believed to have
gone to Spokane, where his father
was reported dying, SO he went only
as far as Chicago. Life there palled
and he came back to New York and
then went to Philadelphia. No one
recognized him there so he returned
to New York last night and decided
to chance the west. AS he bought
his ticket a detective arrested him.

When railway engines were new in
the world they pounded the rails with
the aid of cord wood. They were
small and broke no speed records, as
speed records go these days. The
only large thing about them was the
smokestack, which needed to be large
to carry off the large volume of
smoke made by burning wood.
The little engine shown above is
the one that should have carried
President-elect Harding to Point Is
abel, but happened to be laid DIP for
repairs at the time.
Few of these burning loco
motives now are in running. No
northern railroad uses them excepting
in some lumber localities where they
ere used on branch lines and for
switching purposes. A few small
southern roads use them exclusive
ly. They are in districts where
wood is cheap and coal high priced.
