Miss Violet Aeqeith, 'daughter of the premier of Great Britain, "The W ?lian With tho Serpent's Tonguo," hoe Just annunced her engagement to Maurice Bonham Carter, secretary to her fathor. And It Is believed, des pite tho war, that the wedding will be an important function. When William Watson wrote his poem "The Woman With the Serpent's Tongue," six years ago, it did not take persons familiar with London so ciety long to determine he had In mind Mrs. Asqulth and her step daughter., But the poet would not ad mit it until he visited the United States shortly after tho. publication of the poem. Then he wrote this for ? newspaper: "The Woman With, tho Serpent's Tongue' Is a composite photograph of Mrs. Asuith -and her step daughter, Violet. The poem !s a ^portrait of the physical characteris tics of-Mrs. Asqulth and the mentality of Violet Asqnltb. The latter Is the voice of the family, and rules them all. Violet Is the real official voice speaking with authority." The rat stanca of the poem is as follows: She Is npt old, she is not young, The woman with tho serpent's tongue. Tho haggard cheek, the hungering eye, The poisoned words that wildly ily, The ittmlshed face, the fevered band? Who slights the worthiest in the land, Sneers nt the just, contemns the grave, *And Blackens goodness In its grave. Many explanations of the poet's purpose In writing this bave been offered. None were wholly accept able to thoso he shocked. FOlEVKl?NEYPnX?l eO? SACK ACH ? KiONSYS ADO eiAOOCS GLAD HE'S DEAD Relieved That Son** Tortures Have at Last Been Ended? Sister Bitter in Denunciation of People of South. New York, Aug. VJ.?"I thank Cod that my hoy is dead. 1 am glad that the Jong, terrible torture thai the people of Georgia have proved themselves capable of inflicting Is at end. My boy Is at rest and will sleep untroubled tonight." With the same remarkable courage that IjCo M. Frank displayed during the time he was being threatened by the Georgia mobs, his mother, Mrs. Itudolph Frank, received the news of his death. There was scarcely a tremor in her voice as she expressed her Joy that at ast her son was be yond the vengeance of the mob, but her unusual calm spoke elequently of a blow that had struck deep. The little three-story white lime stone house at No. 152 Underbill Avenue, where Frank's parents re-, side with his mi .Tied sister, Mrs. Otto Stern and her family, was fun eral liko when a reporter called yes terday morning. The curtains wero drawn and thcro was the stillness that bespeaks death hanging over the neighborhood. The nelghlwrs lowered their voices as they passed by and several raised their hats. "We are all bearing up as well as we can," said Mrs. Stern, "Surely when Leo was so bravxj and courag eous Wo cannot do less. There is nothing we can say now. We appre ciate deeply the sympathy of all who bellve In poor Leo's innoconce. He was as innocent of that crime as you are. It is too terrible. That awful South. Never again will we breathe the air of the South. Oh, how I hate it!" "Every one down there was blind ed by race hatred. To be a North erner was enough to mak?? yourself hated, hut to bo a Jew as well meant to have that hatred intensified. I hope they are satisfied now that they have killed an innocent man. He was so brave and his fnlth that some day would bo cleared was absolute!." Mrs. Ster nwas asked If any word ? had been received from Frank's wife, . who had been at the Mlllcdgeville ? prison farm since the night of the t ai' aipt on the prisoner's life by a , l?->w convict and remained at bis ? bi - de for days nursing him back ( iv life. < "Wo know that Mrs. Frank Is In ] Georgia, but whether in Atlanta or Millcdgnvllle we are not sure," Mrs. , Stern replied. "The last we heard , from her she was still with Leo at j the prison. "The poor boy, to die Just after he | was beginning- to recover front that j dastardly attempt on his life* They , had to have a life for that cimo and , Leo was their victim. But, it's God's \ will." , A short tlm cafter, r>udolph Frank , the dead man's father, accompanicX j by his son-in-law. Otto Stern, ap peared in the doorway. The aged man made no attempt to hide his grief as ho stu.uuied down the stoop to the Btreet. "I can't talk. . I can't talk," he sobbed. "My poor murdered Leo." With an effort the aged man straightened his shoulder and gained control of hVisclf. "if there Is any forco loft iu the laws of this land theso 'men will bo brought to Jus tice." he said. Mr. Frank begged the reporters not to follow him to the telegraph of fice, where ho was going to send In structions to have the body of his sou shipped to Brooklyn. Although they had never seen their Uncle Leo, Elinor and Robert, thn children of Mr. and Mrs. Stern, were ero shed by the grief that had drawn close to their parents. Occa sionally the children would go to the window, and, holding the cur tains asido, press their faces to the pane. The re se m hi am ? of Robert to his Uncle Leo is marked, and he and his siter had been told storls of their "uncle," who was far away, bnt wrote them letters and would som; day come to see them. The ceremony of sitting chivan, the orthodox mourning for their dead, which lasts eight days, was be gun at once. AU hough convicted of a Heinous crime no honors usually p?id to tbo memory of a members of his church will be denied Frank. It has been arranged to give him a fun eral that will conform with all the rltcso of Iiis religion. .... The Rake.
