~ HENRY ED,yARD WARMER

There was q Kid. "a wax-faced boy
Who used to sit when others played
And tinker with some parlor toy
kid we always thought afraid
To jump or run, or box, or SWIM
Or anything. or ride race.
And 80 Il nickname struck to him
We fellows called him Angel Fnce.
y Mammals Pet. nc never dared
To play In dirt muss his shirt.
And he appeared to DO scared
or bugs. he should have worn skirt!
We liked him. thouSh--he was kid
You had TO like. somehow; and yet
We sncercd ut everything he did
We made Goat Of Mammals Pet.
Then when the War came on. boys
Were all grown up and went, OF COURSE
Went where the cannon were our toys;
And He was captain OF our force!
Wax-faced lac was. and quiet too.
But when he snapped quick command
There was IL Something cut us through.
As We cut through TO No-Man's Land.
And l one OF those he sent
Into the trap the Bochcs spread.
Into the mouth of Hell unpcnt.
Into tina, ring of shast!y dcad
And was one of those who saw
My Captain battling. in that Place! ;.
Dragging out from hcils own jaw.
My fearless Captain. AnEel-Face!
And / was one OF those who prayed
Taking our turns, by that low bed
And / was one of those who stayed.
CoaNng our Captain from the Dead.
And we stili call him what did
When we were boys and proudly trace
The record of that t!mid kid
Who whipped Regiment Angcl-Facc!

Measurement. Of Floor s,,c.

Reader, Richmond.-To get the
number of square feet OF floor space,
multiply the length OF Il room in feet
by the width in feet; that is, room
feet by IL feet contains los square

Atlanta. April 27.-Denials of various charges made against members of the city detective department flew thick and fast before the councilmanic investiSa- tion committee this afternoon, and more than one accused officer deliberately de- clared that the charges against him was a "Ie.'
 Its an absolute lie; no man ever gave me money for protection at any time, was the answer made by A. D. Hornsby, a patrolman whom J. B. Jarman,- wit ness at a recent session, had declared was seen to accept something, "presurn- ably money" from Floyd Woodward, al legged head of a ring of gamblers and swindlers.
 Hornsby added that he and another po- liceman had arrested Jarman on a charge of being drunk and that Jarman had threatened to get" their jobs.
 Jack Malcolm, city detective. grew resentful over various charges that de- tectives "in connivance with crooks had been instrumental in having bonds re- duced so alleged criminals could forfeit them and escape.
 Tn justice to myself" said Malcolm | T want to say that if Joe Ewing or any one else says I made any effort to have | that bond reduced he is plain liar; those are plain words and I mean them
