Mrs. Dannie Carter, 48, the mother
of three nearly grown sons, AMI
whose sole aim in life is to see
them well educated, she declares,
told the authorities at the Forrest
county Jail here last night, how
she deliberately shot and killed her
husband, a Well-to-do farmer, at
their home in Perry county, thirteen
miles from here, at midnight, March
II.
Her husband had mistreated her,
Mrs. Carter said in the confession,
and just before the Staying had
threatened to kill her. She retired
as usual the night of March IA,
explaining that she and Carter did
not occupy the same room. AT
midnight she arose, dressed, took
Carriers shotgun from the rack and
went to the corn crib at the real
of the house.
Dogs acted as decoys. She said
she knew the dogs about the place
would bark when they saw her and
that her husband would arise and
investigate the disturbance. He~
plan worked perfectly. The dogs
launched into an uproar at her ap-
pearance- and she concealed herself
in the crib, dropping to her knees.
Carter left his bed to ascertain the
cause of the barking, and ep-
preached the crib. He peered in.

PRESIDENT HARDING BUYS
FARM ON WHICH He WAS BORN
Life as Gentleman Farmer
in Ohio Planned by Execu-
tive on Retirement From
White House

MARION, Ohio, April 9.-(By the
Associated Press).-When he leaves
the White House, President Harding
plans to return to the scenes of his
early childhood, to become a gentle.
man farmer and spend much of his
time writing.
This was announced here today by
the presidents home town friends,
following his purchase yesterday OF
the farm in North Bloomfield town
ship, Morrow county, where he was
born. The purchase consists Of
265 IL acres and was made by
French Crow, Marion postmaster,
and intimate friend of the president.
The original farm where the presi-
dent was born consists of 1876 IL
acres and is far away from any
railroad. 1t is about 20-nile drive
from Marion. The land is described
as rolling, with corn the principal
crop.
The house in which the executive
was born is still standing, although
in a bad state of decay. At present
it is being used as storage space
for farm machinery.
Whether President Harding plans
to restore it il not known to his
friends.
President Harding has told close
friends that he expects to visit the
farm in July, and possibly sooner,
to plan improvements Friends say
that contemplated improvements in,
clude a modern bungalow and a
golf course.
The farm was purchased from
Harry E. Erickson, who has owned
it for several years and whose wife
is a second cousin of the president
It Immediately adjoins the quiet lit
tie village of Blooming Grove,
town of about 200 persons, where
the president obtained his first
schooling. The village of Blooming
Grove was laid out and founded by
Simon E. Harding, a great great
uncle of Warren G. Harding.
President Harding lived on the
farm until he was years old, when
his family moved to Caledonia, in
Marion county, about ten miles
northeast of this city.
His first impressions and recol-
lections were obtained on the old
farm. It was there he played about
his daddy's barnyard as q chubby
faced. little fellow. He first expert
enced the joys of the old "swimmin
hole" on the farm in a little creek
that cut through the 1876 IL acre
tract.
The presidents father, DR.. George
T. Harding, ST., who is a practicing
physician here, today told of the
presidents earliest ambition.
He wanted to be fisherman.
The desire came from frequent
fishing trpis with his daddy in the
creek running through the home
farm. Intimate friends say the
president never has become a good
fisherman, although he plays at the
sport at times.

SCIENTISTS SCORN THEORY
OF OLD EGYPTIAN POISON
IN LORD CARNARVON'S DEATH
Florida Solons Vote
For Investigation Of
Young Convict S Death

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, April T.
Members of the Florida general as
sembly today journeyed to their re-
spective homes for the weekend
recess, but behind them they left
machinery for the investigation
into the death of Martin Tabert,
of Munich, N. D., who died in a
Dixie county convict camp a year
ago. The youth, it was alleged, died
as a result of brutal treatment.
Before adjournment yesterday, the
house of Representatives concurred
in the senate resolution which calls
for a joint committee to go into the
Tabert death. The resolution pro.
vides that two members of the SEN
ate and three members of the house
shall compose the investigating
committee.
On the heels of this action two
bills were introduced proposing to
abolish the convict lease system
under which, it is alleged, Tabert
came to his death. One measure, in
troduced by Representative J. Ed
Stokes, came out of the hopper i'm
mediately after Stokes name was
called on the roll. Mr.. Stokes pre-.
dicted the passage of the bill.
The special investigating commit
tee is expected to get into session
some time early next week.
Circuit Judge w. J. Kneeshaw
and State Attorney G. Crimson, of
North Dakota, came here today en-
route to Madison in connection with
the grand jury investigation into the
death of Tabert. They paid their
respects to Governor Hardee and
the presiding officers of the two
houses of the legislature.
The North Dakota officials left
for Madison, where the investigation
is scheduled to start Monday.

FARM MIGRATION
DANCER IS POINTED
BY DR.. A. N. SOULE

DIR. Andrew M, Soule, president of
the State College Of Agriculture, at
Athens, Ga, pointed out the great
agricultural danger to be found in
the migration of farmers to large
cities and leaving ignorant tenants
to run their farms, in an interest
ing talk before the membership of
the Burns club.
The migration of negroes to the
north and west also was pointed
out by DR.. Soule> as a bad practice
which is leaving many acres of fer
tile soil untitled.
AS a remedy, DR.. Soule offered
the suggestion that the way to OBJ
tain the advantages of former con-
ditions is to get remunerative prices
for farm products by intelligent CO.
operation and, by intensive meth
DDS, gain from a few acres a yield
a far greater area. He also pointed
out that better results would follow
if farmers would give closer atten-
ton to absentee" farming.

The chemical engineers do not
contend, however, that the still was
representative of their branch of en-
cheering. Among other floats was

ON GEORGIA SOIL
AF TER 100 YEARS

MARIETTA, Ca, April IA wide
tiQnal cemetery here stands today as
sentinel over the grave which
marks the final resting place for the
remains of General John Clark, hero
Of the Revolutionary war and twice
governor Of Georgia during the post
war period, which were inferred
Friday afternoon at an impressive
ceremony conducted by a special
committee from the state D. A. r.
Together with those of his wife
and two small grandchildren, the
remains of Governor Clark were re-
moved to Georgia soil after sleeping
for nearly one hundred years on

buried in 1882, following their death
from yellow fever.

of General Clark and his family.
The principal address was made
by Colonel John T. Boifeuillet, dis
tinguished Georgia historian and
orator, who delivered ,sterful
eulogy on the life of General Clark,
both as war hero who won
lieutenancy at the age of sixteen,
and later as a Suvernor who dom
mated the states political field.
At the conclusion of Colonel
Boifeuillet's address, a bugler from
Fort Mcpherson stepped to the foot
of the open grave and sounded
'"Taps." AS the last notes of his
bugle floated over the hillside, the
strain was taken up by another
bugler stationed across the valley,
and Taps" came echoing back at
the assemblage.
Benediction was pronounced by
the Rev. Eli A. Thomas, following
