TWO COUNTIES TANGLE OVER DAMAGE VERDICT Brooks Officials Say-Lowndes Should Pay a Part Given to Plaintiff (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) QUITMAN, Ga., April 11.—The Brooks county commissioners are engaged with the problem of prevailing upon Lowndes county to pay the costs of defending a suit for damages for an accident which occurred on one of the county line bridges, the Troupville* bridge. The con tention is the result of a suit brought several years ago in which unusual and interesting points of law are involved. Mrs. Isaac Carrington, of Barney, in this county, was crossing the Troupville bridge and met a turpentine wagon, with four muie6. These animals became frightened and pushed the vehicle of Mrs. Carrington through the rail’of the bridge. In the fall, Ml*s. Carrington’s leg was broken and other injuries sus tained, it was alleged, in the subsequent suit she brought against Brooks county i for damages. In defending the suit the county urged that it was not liable for damages, be cause the Troupville bridge belonged to Lowndes county. It was brought out that the Withlacoochee river is the coun ty line between Brooks and Lowndes, and that the two counties had entered into a contract to* divide the several county line bridges between them, each to be responsible for the building and upkeep of a stated number! The Troup ville bridge was one of the bridges chos en Joy Lowndes and was built by that county and maintained wholly by it. Judge McCall, of the city court of Quitman, ruled that Brooks was liable for damages and $750 was awarded Mrs. Carrington. The county appealed the case to the supreme court and the ver dict of the lower court was not sustain ed, the supreme court deciding that it was a county line bridge and damages could not be collected from Brooks county. Liquor Causes More Domestic Troubles Than Mothers-in-Law CHICAGO, April 14.—Drinking, by an overwhelming majority, is the cause of the wrecking of most homes whose af fairs came under the Chicago court of domestic relations in the last year. Three thousand, six hundred and nine ty-nine cases were heard this year. Following are the causes of domestic trouble as tabulated by Judge Germill: Liquor, 45 per cent. Immorality, 14 per cent- Disease, 13 per cent. Ill temper, 11 per cent. Wife’s parents, 6 per cent. , Husband’s parents, 1 per cent. Married too young, 4 per cent. Laziness, 5 per cent. Miscellaneous. 6 per cent. “More than $150,000 has been collect ed and turned oyer to dependent wives and children during the year,” said Judge Germill. ‘‘Perhaps the best feature of the court’s record is that reconciliations have been brought aboqt in 50 per cent of the cases of separation that came before it.”* Servian Artillery Accidentally Mow Down Montenegrins r CETTINJE, Montenegro. April 14^— The Servian troops which have been as sisting the Montenegrin army in the siege of Scutari, hapve withdrawn and are mdrching back to Seryia. This leaves Montenegro standing practically alone in its defiance of the powers. The official gazette declares today that the heavy Montenegrin, losses sustained during the recent assa-ult on the Tara- bosch forts were due mainly to the Servian artillery, which continued to fire, .while the allied troops were storming the works. "The Servian commaaider forgot to give the order to cease fire,” says the gazette. FARMERS SENTENCED BY WHITE SLAVE ACT AUGUSTA. Ga., April 14.—Walter Pounds and Clarence Rhodes, two well known and prosperous farmers of Bicrke county, Ga., were found guilty of violat ing the federal white slave act t^v a jury in the United States court this morning. Pounds was sentenced by Judge Emory Speer to serve two years in the federal prison in Atlanta and pay a fine of one dollar. Rhodes was sen tenced to serve three months in the Richmond county jail at Augusta and pa^ a fine of $500. The two men were charged with bringing from Bath, S. O., into Georgia three white girls for alleged immoral purposes. It was charged by the gov ernment that the girls were kept on the plantations of Rhodes and Pounds in in voluntary servitude and that they were threatened whenever they attempted to leave. Repeated efforts on the part of the relatives of the girls to get them from Georgia were said to havo been unavailing. In passing sentence the court gave the defendants a severe lecture and stated, that it was the purpose of the govern ment to break up traffic in females. THE SECRET_0F SUCCESS Genuine Merit Required to Withe People’s Confidence Have you ever stopped to reason why it is that so many products that are ex tensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon - forgotten? The reason is plain—the article did not fulfil the promises of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. A medicinal preparation that has real curative value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been cured, to those who are in need of it. In an interview on the subject a prominent local druggist says “Take for example Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, a preparation I have sold for many years and never hesitate to recommend, for in almost every easy it shows immediate results, as mafly or my customers testi fy. No other kidney remedy that I know of has so large a sale.” The success of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp- Root’* is due to the fact that it fulfils every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder diseases, corrects urinary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes rheumatism. A free trial bottle will be sent by mail, absolutely free. Address Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., an<^ mention this paper. Regular size bot tles sold at all druggists—50c. and $1.00, (Advt.) FRIENDS HELP Sjt. Paul Park Incident “After drinking coffee -for breakfast I always felt languid and dull, having no ambition to get to my morning du ties. Then in about*an hour or so a weak, nervous derangement of the heart and stomach would come over me with such force I would frequently have to lie down.” ■ > ■ Tea is just as harmful, because it contains caffeine, the same drug found in coffee. “At other times I had severe, head aches; stomach finally became affected and digestion so impaired that I had serious chronic dyspepsia, and constipa tion. A lady, for many years State President of the W. C. T. U.. told me she had been greatly benefited by quit ting coffee and using Postum; she was troubled for years with asthma. She said it was no cross to quit coffee when she found she could have as delicious an article as Postum. “Another lady, who had been troubled with chronic dyspepsia for years, found immediate relief on ceasing coffee and using Postum. SJjll another friend told me that Postum was a God-send, her heart trouble having been relieved after, leaving off coffee and taking on Postum. “So many such cases came to my no tice that J concluded coffee was the cause of iny trouble and I quit and took up Postum. I am more than pleased to say that my days of, trouble have dis appeared. I am well and happy.” Look in pkgs. for the famous little book, “The Road to Weliville.” Ever read the above letter?

LONDON, April. 14—The inflammatory speech made by George Lansbury, a former member of the house of commons at the suffragette meeting at Albert hall Thursday night, urging the mili tants to continue their campain of in cendiarism and show no regard for prop erty. has borne fruit. An attempt was made today to burn the Shipcote council schools at Gateshead. Incendairies entered the room in which carpentry is taught and after drenching the place with kerosense, set it afire. The flames were quickly discovered and firemen prevented their spreading to the other class rooms. The damage was small. Evidence that the perpetrators were suffragettes was afforded by labels scat tered about the premises inscribed, “We Burn to Get Votes for Women,” “For the Damages Done Sue Asquith,” “You Can not Stop Us by the Cat and Mouse Bill.” Several hundred militants, many bear ing black banners, paraded this evening accompanied by two brass hands to Hol loway jail, where fourteen suffragettes are said to be on hunger strike. They circled the jail twice, singing the “March of the Vwomen” and cheer ing for their imprisoned comrades. The object of the demonstration was to en courage the hunger strikers. The suffragettes continue to harass the cabinet ministers whenever .they get a chance. Augustin Birrell, chief secretary for Irelaud, who attended a matinee today, was espied by Miss Nancy Lightman, a prominent militant. (When the curtain fell she addressed the secretary in a loud voice, saying: “How can y'ou, as an honorable man, continue as a member of this despica ble government, which breaks its pledges to women? We will soon show you that the cat and mouse bill is use less-’’ Some of the audience hissed, but many cried “Bravo!” POLITICS OF KENTUCKY -FORECASTING BIG BREAK j* . Split M^y Come Soon Between President and Senator Ollie James • BY RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, D. G\, April 12.— 1 The question of federal patronage in Ken tucky has assumed a serious aspect for the WilsoB administration, and already there are rumblings of• a possible break between the president and Senator Ollie James, who was chairman of the Balti more convention. James is fretted by the attempts of the eKntucky state or-' ganization to control federal patronage in the Blue Grass state. The state or ganization is anti-James. The fight now ^enters over the ap pointment of an internal revenue col lector for the Seventh Kentucky district. James is supporting Ben Marshall, of Frankford, against Desha Breekenridge, a scion of the famous family of that name. The giant Kentucky senator will have none of Breekenridge, if he can prevent it, because, he'asserts, Breekenridge is not a good Democrat. Former Governor Beckham and Na tional Committeeman John C. Mayo, who control the Democratic state organiza tion, are supporting Breekenridge. j-hey are advocating Breekenridge as “an orig inal Wilson man.” James charges that Breekenridge supported William J. Bryan as the Dem ocratic standard bearer that he bolted Democratic congressional nominations i» his district three times, and that he rec ommended to President Taft the ap pointment of negro politicians. JAPS WILL LAND FORMAL PROTEST WITH AMERICA ’Japanese Ambassador to U, S, Will File Protest Against California Legislation (By /Associated Press.) TOKIO, Japan, April 12.—Viscoynt Cliinda, Japanese ambassador to the United States, was instructed today by the Japanese foreign office to make formal representations at Washington in regard to the anti-Japanese legisla tion of the state of California. irritation over the California lane* legislation is increasing throughout the country. All the political parties have sent deputations to the premier and to the foreign minister asking them to adopt measures to preserve Japanese treaty rights in America. The constitutional party has pro* posed an anti-California boycott. The chambers of commerce here have tele graphed to similar bodies in San Fran cisco and Los Angeles and elsewhere asserting that the result of the legis lation will be disastrous for trade be tween the United Staotes and Japan. SUNGAY SCHOOL MEET HELD AT CARTERSVILLE (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) CARTERS VI DDE, Ga., April 14.—A Sunday school institute was held at the First Baptist church in this city Wednesday and Thursday, under the auspices of the state organization of Georgia Sunday School association. A session was hold each afternoon and night and an interesting program was Carried out at each service, which was participated in by all the churches of the City. SELVES.. AND DEFY OFFICERS Whites and Blacks of Wilcox County Will Try to Free Al leged Slayers From Jail (By Associated Press.) ROCHELLE, Ga., April 14.—Central Wilcox county, is in fear tonight of much Woodshed within the next day or two as the result of the killing of young Leon Melvin, the son of a well-to-do farmer, near here, last Sunday night. When three well-known white farm ers, W. A. Coleman, Jim Coleman and W.H. Stevens, were arrested charged with the crime, their tenants were re ported to be organizing into an armed band to storm the jail and rescue them. Tuesday two negroes who were re ported to have been ringleaders in the rescue propaganda, were arrested by Sheriff Gibbes, but were taken from his hands on the way to Rochelle by a score of white men wearing masks. The.negroes were flogged with buggy whips and turned loose, but the next day reports came that negroes and white tenant farmers alike were organizing to batter down the jail. In the meantime the home of the Mel vins was visited by members of the Mc- Elmore family, according to the former, told that if they attempted to prosecute the Colemans they would kill all the Melvin family. The McElmores are ten ants of the Colemans. Warrants were sworn out for the Mc Elmores, but seven strong, they have taken to the woods, where it is report ed that they are organizing a large party of armed whites and negroes with which to descend on Rochelle. Word was received in Rochelle today that Sheriff Gibbes hacf been defied by a body of negroes a dozen strong near Tippetsville, and that from there he has sent for help from the sheriffs of sur rounding counties. When the aid arrives he will move on the recesses where the McElmores are believed to be. These reinforcements are expected to -arrive at Rochelle tonight where Sheriff Gibbes will meet them . The combined forces will then\start a man hunt, the outcome of which fills the peacedoving portion of the community with dire misgivings. Jessie Wilson, Like Her Father, Refuses To Discuss Suffrage RICHMOND, Va., April 14.—Miss Jes sie Wilson’s address on “What the Young Women’s Christian Association Means to the College Girl,” was the prin cipal feature bf the program at the asso ciation’s national convention, though it was scheduled for the night session. The president’s daughter has been inter ested attendant at all the sessions. At the business session of the con vention, Mrs. R. Y. Passomer, of Minne apolis', and Miss Harriet Taylor, of New York, led discussions. The woman suffragists at the conven tion have vainly attempted to get from Miss Wilson some expression of the at titude of herself and the other women of the president’s family toward “the cause.” She steadfastly refuses to dis cuss political questions.

PRESIDENT WILSOFWILL BE RED CROSS LEADER WASHINGTON, April 12.—President Wilson told Miss Mabel T. Boardman he would accept the presidency of the American National Red Cross to succeed former President Taft, who relinkuished the office upon his retirement to private life* BY MISSISSIPPI WATERS Flood During Week Has De populated Scores of Villages; Made Thousands Homeless (By Associated Press.) MEMPHIS, Tenn. April 12.—More than one million acres of farm and timber land has been flooded, a score or more of small ( towns have been temporarily^ depopulated and thousands rendered homeless as a result of the week’s ravages of the Mississippi river through the central portion of the great valley. Tonight the center of the fight against the flood had shifted to points south of Memphis, but constant work for several days yet is necessary be fore the levees on the northeastern Arkansas shore are out of danger. From Cairo to Memphis the worst is believed to be over. Beginning with a fall of three-tenths of a foot at Cairo, reports to the office of District Forecaster Emery show total decreases in the stage of four-tenths at Hickman and a half a foot at Luxora. While those in charge of the St. Francis levee board are encouraged by these reports they believe that the crisis at Osceola and Luxora has not passed and that those towns w r ill not be con sidered entirely out of danger for three or four days. At Memphis the river stood at 43.9 at 7 o’clock tonight, a fall of two- tenths since the same hour this morn ing. The receding waters are bringing a measure of relief to the north Mem phis suburb which was flooded several days ago when the levee along Bayou Gayoso broke, allowing backwater from Wolf river, a tributary of the Missis sippi, to cover it. The dike around the gas works has been repaired, the water pumped out and preparations vzere made to start the plant, probably tomorrow. RISING AT VICKSBURG. Below Memphis the river has made no great strides toward flood condi tions. At Helena the tsage late today was 63.7, stationary. The fact that no rise was recorded is considered en couraging. At Vicksburg a rise of six- tenths was recorded but at Greenville the stage- had gone up a foot in twenty- four hours. The break in the private levee at Red Workt on the Arkansas river, early today will do little to relieve the stages in the Mississippi. This crevasse will release the flood waters of the Arkansas river over the southeastern section of that state and they may ex tend as far as northeast Louisiana, but some experts claim there is not enough flood water in the Arkansas river to spread over any great area. Some effect of the break will be felt at Beulah, it is stated, where a little of the pressure will be taken off the levees on the Mississippi side. Reports from Mississippi state that all the lines of embankment on the eastern side of the river are in excellent condition. The bad spot in the levee just north of the old Beulah break has been*strengjhened, and it is believed by t£pse in charge of the work that no break will occur at that point. With the beginning of next week the government relief forces here, under command of Majdir Normoyle, will move on down the river, following the center of activity. They will sail aboard the government steamer Scioto, which is the floating bdse of supplies, and the first camp probably will be pitched at Green ville. The camp site already has been pre pared by a party beaded by Captain Gaujot, who has moved on to Baton Rouge to prepare for a camp there. The Yazoo and Mississippi Valley rail road has placed the transfer boat De Koven at the disposal of the federal re lief authorities, and this will be utilized in moving supplies should the emer gency arise* The steamer William R. King is ex pected here tomorrow from Cairo with a large shipment of rations and forage. This will be sent south immediately. According to Major Normoyle, tbe relief work in that section of the valley above Memphis is now well in hand. Reports brought in by various boats sent to sqccor the flood victims state that the refugees are profiting by tbeir expcr rien.ee of last year, and comparatively little suffering is noted- Their principal want is food, and when this is supplied they prefer to wait oq the high ground near their flooded homes until the waters subside. At Camp Crurapain, in this city, mpre than 1,500 refugees are being sheltered and fed. These include few able-bodied men, for all who can work are rounded up and sent back to the river to work on the levees. Citizens of Memphis have responded promptly to calls for aid, and little want is felt at the camp. $10,000,000 A Year Wasted On Trusses Wrong to Buy Anything For Rupture Without Getting Sixty Days Trial A conservative estimate shows that nearly ten million dollars a year—In this country alone—ie practically wasted on worthless ruptune appliances—an because people trust to a mere try-on instead of making a thorough tost Away With Leg-Strap and Spring Trusses So far as we know, our guaranteed rupture bolder is the only thing of any kind for rupture that you cauget on oo days trial—the only thing we know of good enough to stand such a long and thorough test.

CHICAGO, April 11.—Dance halls where liquor is sold to skirls and where the girls meet frequenters of such places, were ascribed as the cfiuse of the downfall of many young women by Mrs. Gertrude H. Britton, social settle ment worker, who testified today before the Illinois vice commission. “In a thorough investigation wfe found that there were 200 dance halls in Chi cago where liquor is sold to girls under sixteen years old,” said Mrs. Britton. ‘‘In some of the other places the so- called soft drinks, when analyzed by the city chemist, were found to contain al cohol. "In one dance hall we discovered that the proprietor had served notice on his patrons that girls could be introduced to. these frequenters. “Our investigators learned that re spectable dance halls were a good thing, for they provided diversion for many young people without endangering their morals, but about half of the dance halls ar immoral. 'The selling of liquor to girls is often the first step toward their ruin.” “Myrtle S.,” seventeen years old, told the commission how a scolding by her father, the chance meeting of a “jolly fellow” and his giving her drugged, beer led to her downfall. “On my parents’ separation I came to Chicago from Cleveland and finding it lonesome to stay in my room at night, I sought company,” said the witness. “A girl introduced me to a friend. At fir^t we took soft drinks, but later I was induced to drink beer. One night the beer affected me strangely and after that I was a lost girl| I was convinced, my friend had drugged the beer. We often visited hotels, sometimes without any baggage, going to those in the down town district which are considered re spectable.” Proprietors of dance halls and hotels mentioned by witnesses were to testify later.
