tered, Major Coart spoke and
said he would like to talk to
me. 1 told him all right, to come
into my office. We walked into
my office and Major Coart closed
the door as we entered. I sat-
down at my desk and Major /,
Coart continued to stand up, and
he never did sit down.
''The first thing he said was
that he understood that / was
criticising him for walking home
with Celeste. my wife, after dark.
I told him I had not criticised
him because I felt that her char
acter was such that she could
be trusted alone with anybody. !,
He then accused me of inviting
Mrs. Coart to go to, Collinsworth
church to quarterly meeting. / :
told him that I did not invite
her; that my wife invited her.
He then said, There is lie
out, my wife said that you in

my wife and myself both. He
then began to enumerate insin.

Sculpture Of Male
Spurning Females
Fires Ire of Women

NEW YORK, March 14.-New
York club women and leaders in
civic affairs today sent out what
may prove to be a feminine battle
cry against Sculptor Frederick Mac
Monnies' depletion of Civic Virtue, f."
as a nude young man enthusiastical-
ly kicking the PROSTATE form of
TWO sirens, representative of urban
| temptation and vice.
| Protest was voiced by Mary Gar
rett Hay and Mrs. James Lees Laid
law. champion Of woman's rights, at
i the announcement that the MacMon-
MES sculpture was about completed
and was soon to be erected in City
Hall Park. The money for the mon
ument to "Civic Virtue" was left
to the city in the term Of Mayor Nc
Clellan.
Mr.. MacMonnies has depicted the
spirit of his theme as an onward
marching youth, mighty club slung
across his husky shoulder, spurning
with either foot a recumbent and
alluring female, symbolic of all that
! isn't nice in civic aspiration.
II think it is a trifle ridiculous"
J Miss Hay declared. Perhaps the
/ true symbolism lies in the fact that
Civic Virtue is depicted as naked.
That strikes one as reasonable after
thinking of what civic virtue has
had to undergo from the city hall
politicians. No wonder the poor
thing hasn't any clothes.
! why. should MacMonnies have
used a male figure trampling down
tempting women? Why not repre-
sent civic virtue as a man and wom-
an hand-in-hand, mounting confident
ly and happily difficult path?"
| Mrs. Laidlaw agreed with Miss
Hay.
| "Women stand with me-" she said.
1.-THE spirit of the times, it seems
to me, is against a discrimination

At that time I went and warned my
wife that her associations with Me-
Niece must STOP"
The defendant .then described q
number of instances similar to this
one, and described the incidelts thai
led to them. Many of these Incidents
took place at Juniper, q resort near

out to stake some distance from
the shore, and stayed about 10 &C 30
minutes,~ talking seriously and ses
cretly." Speaking of other visits to
this lake, Coart stated that ofton-
times "they (McNiece and Mrs.
Coart) swan to the far side and dis
appeared in the woods together"
The witness also described incl
dents of similar nature occurring az
Warm Springs.
On returning from Juniper on one
occasion, Coart again warned his

''after I had had several quarrela

that time to the time of the tragedy,
he said. II then realized my home
had been broken up, and that Nc

He stated that after he had re-
peatedly warned his wife and Nc
Niece concerning their relations, he

sence McNiece had been corning 10
my home as often as three or four
times a day." He said that he was
told that McNiece, or approaching
his home, would look ill about as It
to make sure that no ore saw him.
This part of his story, ne said,
also was substantiated -by Miss Julia
Gibson.
At various times during his recital,
Coart spoke of the aft ,ctiorate rela-
tions existing between himself and
Holmes Frederick, th@ Icy ear-old
son of Mrs. Coart. For several
months following the estrangement
Of himself and his wife, he said that
his pleasant association with Freder.
lex was the only me life he had.
He told of quarreling with his wife
on September at the time she was
leaving for Columbus to attend the
wedding of the daughter of Judge A.
w. Cozart, relative. On the same
day, he said, he again went to Nc
Niece and appealed to him as fra
ternity brother to refrain from the
course that wos sure to bring dis
grace to their homes. He asked him
in the future to bestow his attentions
on his own wife and leave his
