The tragic existence of “the house of
death,” at 2359 Wentworth avenue, is
closed. The house gained its name In
the neighborhood because of the fatali
ties which have occurred within it dur
ing the last ten years.
A decade ago Jacob Worner opened a
meat market in the place. Within a
short time his entire family died and
Worner committed suicide.
Worner’s clerk, Fred Kunz, took the
market, but shortly afterward his lit
tle daughter was scalded to death in
a pickling vat, and a week after this
accident Kunz was found dead under
mysterious circumstances.
The next tenant was a man of the
name of Strauss, who was murered in
the house.
A few weeks after that an uniden
tified Italian crawled under the porch
of the place and committed suicide.

If what you just ate is souring on
your stomach or lies like a lump of lead,
refusing to digest, or you belch gas and
eructate sour, undigested food, or have
a feeling of dizziness, heartburn, full
ness, nausea, bad taste in mouth and
stomach headache—this is indigestion.
A full case of Pape’s Diapepsin costs
only fifty cents and will thoroughly cure
your out-of-order stomach, and leave
sufficient about the house in case some
one else in the family may suffer from
stomach trouble or indigestion.
Ask any pharmacist to show you the
formula plainly printed on these fifty-
cent cases, then you will understand
why dyspeptic trouble of all kinds must
go, and why they usually relieve sour,
out-of-order stomachs or indigestion in
five minutes. DIapeosin is harmless and
tastes like candy, though each dose con
tains power sufficient to digest and pre
pare for assimilation into the blood all
the food you eat; besides, it makes you
go to the table with a healthy appe
tite; but, what will please you most, is
that you will feel that your stomach
and intestines are clean and fresh, and
you will not need to resort to laxatives
or liver pills for biliousness or consti
pation.
This city will have many Diapepsin
cranks, as some people will call them,
but you will be cranky about this splen
did stomach preparation, too, if you ever
try a litle for indigestion or gastritis or
any other stomach misery.
Get some now, this minute, and for
ever rid yourself of stomach trouble
and indigestion.—(Advt.)

FIANCE WINS GIRL
IN RACE OF RIVALS
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
MACON. Ga., March 3 8.—There will
be no wedding at the home of Dr. and
Mrs. H. W. Thomas, 721 Plum street,
Thursday, March 20, as had been plan
ned, for the simple reason that the
wedding has already taken place.
Will Gordon Evans, engaged to wed
Miss Daisy Irene Thomas, Saturday
learned that C. H. Hancock, his friend,
was planning to get a license for the
same purpose. Evans hastened to the
Thomas home and calling his bride-to-
be, demanded that she marry him then
and there—and she did.
It seems that both Evans and Han
cock, who are city firemen, had been
courting Miss Thomas and that Evans
finally won her heart. Hancock, it is
said, declined to give up the fight and
only quit the field when the marriage
ceremony had actually been performed.
Freed After 37 Years
In Prison, Eckart Now
Searches For Lost Kin
(By Associated Press.)
WAUPIN, Wis., March 18.—Edward
Eckart, of Pennsylvania, was today pa
roled from the Wisconsin penitentiary
after thirty-seven years of actual time
served behind the bars. He was con
victed of murder when twenty-one
years old.
Eckarts victim was Charles Peter
son. The two were tramping in Wis
consin during the excessively cold win
ter of 1875. In a quarrel over a fire
started beside the railroad track near
Jefferson, Peterson was killed and
Eckart was sentenced to life imprison
ment for the murder.
Ho never has admitted the crime,
maintaining that Peterson was killed
by a tramp.
In the thirty-seven years of prison
confinement never a mark of demerit
has been placed against Eckart. He
can not leave Wisconsin and his con
duct must be exemplary in every way.
In the third of a century or imprison
ment his kin have deserted him and he
does not know the whereabouts of his
wife and daughter.
Without money Eckart managed to
bring his case before the supreme court
of Wisconsin and the circuit court of
appeals of the United States, but at
every turn he was thwarted.
Then he appealed to a Milwaukee
newspaper man, who was instrumental
in obtaining his conditional release.
Holding that Judge L. S. Roan, of
the criminal division of the Fulton su
perior court, erred in his charge to the
jury, the state courj; of appeals Tues
day granted a new trial to Frank Mc
Donald. the restaurant waiter, who was
convicted and sentenced to eight years
for stabbing to death O. B. Stevens, Jr.,
son of the former agricultural com
missioner.
Attorney W. M. Smith, representing
McDonald, carried the case to the ap
pellate court on a writ of error, con
tending that Judge Roan’s charge was
so worded as to place the burden of
proof upon the accused rather than up
on the state, and his contention was up
held by the higher court, which re
verses the judgment of the lower court.
In its ruling the court of appeals
says: “On the trial of one charged
with murder, where the defense relied
upon justifiable homicide as a de
fense for a plea of self-defense, it was
erroneous to instruct the jury to the
effect that the burden was on the ac
cused to establish this defense to the
satisfaction of the jury and beyond a
reasonable doubt. This placed the bur-,
den on the accused, wHile the law places
it on the state.”/
Stevens died from wounds sustained
in a knife duel with McDonald. The
altercation occurred in Auburn avenue
about a year ago. McDonald was con
victed of manslaughter.

Gently Cleanse and Regulate
Your Stomach, Liver ana

That awful sourness, belching of acid
and foul gases; that pain in the pit of
the stomach, the heartburn, nervous
ness,'nausea, bloating after eating, feel
ing of fullness, dizziness and sick head
ache means * a disordered stomach,
which cannot be regulated until you re
move the cause. It isn’t your' stom
ach’s fault. Your stomach i's as good
as any.
Try Cascarets; they immediately
cleanse and regulate the stomach, re
move the sour, undigested and fer
menting food and foul gases; take the
excess bile from the liver and carry
off the constipated waste matter and
poison from the intestines and bowels.
Then your stomach trouble is ended.
A Cascaret tonight will straighten you
out by morning—a 10-cent box from
any drug store will keep your stomach
sweet; liver and bowels regular for

SAVANNAH, Ga., March 18.—The
principal topic in banking and business
circles in Savannah today has been the
suspension of the American Naval Stores
company, the biggest corporation in
business in Savannan. There Is every
confidence that the company will re
sume business after a meeting of the
creditors in Savannah on Friday of
this week.
The company claims its assets are
greatly in excess of its liabilities and
this is believed to be true. The Sa
vannah banks, all of whom are inter
ested in the suspension, say that there
is absolutely nothing to fear from the
suspension.
The assets of the compjfny are suf
ficiently large to protect everybody if
time is taken to do so. The meeting
of the creditors here on Friday will
be attended by the representatives of
the biggest bankers in New l r ork, who
are as greatly interested in the affairs
of the concern as the local bankers.
The news of the suspension of this
big concern has been flashed around
the world. It has offices In every busi
ness center of any Importance on the
globe.
Its ships ply all the waters and its
representatives are in Paris, London,
Liverpool, Nice, Berlin and, in fact,
wherever business is done. Mr. S. P.
Shotter, the chairman of the board of
directors, issued the statement rela
tive to the suspension.
He is in Savannah, but Mr. E. S. Nash,
the president of the company, is abroad.
It is believed he made an unsuccessful
visit to European capitalists in an ef
fort to secure financial assistance for
the company and failed.
NEEDED NEW CROP FINANCES.
The company was badly in need of
funds to finance the gathering of the
new crop of naval stores which will be
finding its way to market beginning
the first of April. It is expected that
this detail will be cared for when the
meeting is held on Friday. In the mean
time everybody in Savannah is doing
everything possible to keep down any
undue excitement because of the suspen
sion.
The bankers have issued a statement,
calling for conservative action and ask
ing that there be no undue activitj'
because of the development. The naval
stores market has beer, absolutely nil
during the past several days because
of the fact that the American Naval
Stores company has been out of it as a
buyer.
This company has been the greatest
purchaser of naval stores in the world
and has been the biggest trader in the
biggest naval stores market in the world.
It is not known when Mr. Nash will
be back from Europe, but it is expected
he will try to -get here in time to at
tend the meeting on Friday.
STATEMENT ISSUED.
The company issued the following
statement:
“In the absence of Mr. E. S. Nash, the
president of the company, who is now
in Europe, the secretary of the com
pany presented the following statement:
“The American Naval Stores company
has been forced to suspend. The com
pany has not lost 1. dollar and its as
sets, at conservative present values, ex
ceed its liabilities by about $4,000,000,
but the credit of the company has slow
ly become contracted, due almost en
tirely to the persistent and continued
assaults made upon the construction
and contractual relations of the corpor
ation by the government in its suits un
der the anti-trust laws.
“With two of its executive officers
now awaiting the final determination
of their case by the United States su
preme court and tho government press
ing a civil suit for the dissolution of
th e company and the destrlction of its
business (a business which it has taken
thirty years of intelligent work to con
struct, and which has opened up to the
producers of naval stores the markets
of the world) it goes without saying
that the company is in no position to
solicit new capital and must depend
entirely upon its present resources.
These resources, although large and
valuable, with the company’s credit
contracted and with the marketing of
the new crop of naval stores almost at
hand, are Insufficient to meet its finan-
city requirements.
“This situation has recently become
still more acute by reason of the pre
vailing financial stringency throughout
the entire world; thus closing to ua al
most at the last moment avenues for
relief, which ordinarily would have
been at our disposal.
Miss Silla Camp, a dressmaker of
43 1*2 Whitehall street, divorced wife
of C. M. Goddard, warmly defends her
former husband and Mrs. Elmer T.
Darden, whose husband killed Goddard
in the Union depot a week ago.
The DeKalb county courts granted a
divorce and the restoration of her
maiden name to the Atlanta dressmaker
four years ago, after she had lived
for four years with Goddard at his
Stone Mountain home. Cruel treatment
was the ground for divorce, but the
present Miss Camp bears no ill will
against her former husband.
“Cossie Goddard was always
straight,” says his wife, “and I know
that I am telling the truth when I say
that there was never anything wrong
between him and Mrs. Darden.”
The former Mrs. Goddard declares
that she may be able to throw some
light on the tragedy if she is called to
testify at the trial of Darden, who is
now held in the tower.
Through his attorney, John Spence
McClelland, Darden has waived a pre
liminary hearing and the grand jury
probably Will consider his case on Fri
day.
