THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA.. FRIDAY, JUNE 20, 1913. Ir-iBishop W, A, Candler Declares £ $1,000,000 to Vanderbilt Jp University Is- Not “a Dona- III tion, but a Denaturing" The recently announced gift of B $1,000,000 to the Vanderbilt university, Of Nashville, Tenn., by Mr. Andrew Carnegie is, in the opinion of Bishop ijSpCandler, not so much a donation to the $g;universlty as an attempt’ to “denature g*?the Institution." To a representative of The Journal Bishop Candler said Wednesday: SE. “This loud-heralded gift appears, on Unclose inspection of the terms of the j^peffer, to b© no gift at all, but a shrewd v2S»ttempt to get control of a part of the property of Vanderbilt university in order to set up a medical school fash ioned according to the peculiar ideas of SMr. Carnegie and his educational era- gployes. “In the first announcement of the so- g^called gift the essential terms of the gift and the expressions of purpose ac companying it were held back. The re quest of a member of the board of trust, even, who asked to see the papers in the case, was refused. What **J;was contained in the letter of Mr. Car- '^negie was not known to any one out- 1 side an inner circle until last Monday, when the board of trust met. The mat ter was so serious that Major Millsaps, a member of the board of trust from ^ {"Mississippi, moved that the question of .accepting the gift be postponed until jUthe members of the board could have time to consider it. This motion was rejected, and the motion to accept the gift put through with inconsiderate haste. On Tuesday four of the board of trust offered a protest against the ac- ^^ceptance of the Carnegie proposals. ~_When the public sees Mr. Carnegie’s #ks ~ letter the protest of these worthy gen tlemen will be generally approved, if I •“‘ini not greatly mistaken. BELONGS TO METHODISTS. a “The Vanderbilt university belongs to snTthe Methodist Episcopal Church, South. .X^The church’s ownership having been ftc^denied, suit was brought by order of -^iLthe general conference some time ago to settle the question, and the chancery court decided every point in favor of ^ the church. From that decision those who deny the church’s rights took an appeal, which is now pending in the su preme court of Tennessee. 'To this Mr. Carnegie makes allusion in his letter, ^putting His offer in such relation to this flbuit as to make it tantamount to dang ling money before the public with the purpose of influencing the case. He also 3 denies the ability of any and all cherches to manage and control educational insti tutions—a preposterous piece of igno rance and confident assertion which the whole history of education in Christen dom for a thousand years contradicts. $ViHis expressions about the churches are ' as discreditable to him as his condition ing a gift on the result of a pending suit is ihdecent.. i ~ Georgian Quits Post In Shanghai Three Days After Arrival B-7 RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, June 1*.—Three J' weeks in Shanghai, China, sufficed at „*,;ronce to sicken Dr. J. H. Hollis, of 'fi .Buena Vista. Marion' county, Georgia, ' of the American foreign service and cure him of all desire for government H o service so far removed from dear old •^Georgia. ^ Dr. Hollis passed through Washington a day or two ago en route from Shanghai ? "*to Buena Vista. He stopped here long CTi&enough to resign a $3,600 position in gorthe United States public health and „)/finarine hospital service. Dr. Hollis was “Shanghaied" by Con- ^..gresBman Adamson, Of the Fourth dis- ^ " trict, whose constituent he is. The judge succeeded in securing for Dr. Hollis an appointment in the public ♦-^health service. He was assigned to -^service in Shanghai by Dr. Rupert Blue, ..^surgeon general. The appointment and assignment were * ■ satisfactory to Dr. Hpllis until he had actual experience in China. Before leave Georgia he sold most of his prop- erty, gave up his practice and prepared to have his family join him in Shanghai. ^ Three days after reaching the post, Dr. ~ ~ Hollis was seized with a very severe ill- - neBS. Physicians in "Shanghai told him that the climate and water would result £5; in his death, and he caught the first boat for America. Dr. Hollis is highly regarded by Sur- "^'geon General Blue, who regretted ex- TT ceedingly his resignation. It is possi- S&lble that he will be induced to re-enter the service and given an assignment more to his liking. . BOTH GAINED Man and Wife Fatten on t Grape-Nuts 2J-- The notion that meat is necessary for 5£real strength and the foundation of solid wflesh is now i\p longer as prevalent as formerly. Excessive meat eaters are usually sluggish a part of the time because they ;are not able to fully digest their food, and. the undigested portion is changed •into what is practically a kind of poison that acts upon the blood and nerves, Vthus getting all through the system. “I was a heavy meat eater,” writes an Ills, mari, “and up to two years ago, was »in very poor health. I suffered with in digestion so that I only weighed 95 pounds. “Then I heard about Grape-Nuts food and decided to try it. My wife laughed _Jat me at first, but when I gained to 125 pounds and felt so fine, she thought she ^would eat Grape-Nuts too. Now. she fat and well and has gained 40 pounds. We never have indigestion any more and T. seldom feel the desire for meat. IT “A neighbor of ours, 68 years old, was •troubled with indigestion for years, and was a heavy meat eater. Kfow since -p he has been eating Grape-Nuts regular- £■ ly, he says he is well and never has y* indigestion. {2 “I could name a lot of persons who have rid themselves of indigestion by J changing from a heavy meat diet to Grape-Nuts.” “There’s a Reason.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle j* Creek, Mich.

Id HEARS OF CANCER CURE Dr, W, B, Mayor Declares Be fore Convention That Cancer of Stomach Is Curable MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., June 18.— In fifteen sectional meetings the sec ond day of the sixty-fourth annual convention of the American Medical as sociation opened today. Various sub jects were discussed. That cancer of the stomach is a cur able disease was the declaration of Dr. William B. Mayo, of Rochester, Minn. “A favorable diagnosis can be estab lished by simple methods." he asserted. “A history of gastris disturbances pre cedes cancer in a large number if not the majority of cases. Operations for cancer of the stomach should begin as an exploration. Moderate involvement of the pancreas does not necessarily preclude operation. Palliative opera tions have a field of usefulness.” Dr. Mayo gave a review of statis tics of signs and symptoms observed in one thousand patients operated on for cancer of the stomach. Radium as a physical agency was discussed in a paper by Dr. Howard A. Kelly, of Baltimore. Its action, he said, is local and it is destined to be a potent aid in the treatment of gyne cology. He asserted that radium will cure some cancers and will especially eliminate many * cases of local recur rence which are difficult to treat by many of the customary surgical meth ods. TREATMENT OF TUMORS*. Its importance in the treatment oT fibroid tumors is just beginning to be recognized. It checks hemorrhage and in some cases materially decreases the size of the growths. In pelvic inflam matory diseases its use is very helpful, but this, he said, is still a new field. Lantern slides were used by Dr. J. A. Stucky, of Lexington, Ky., to il lustrate a paper on trachoma among the mountaineers of eastern Kentucky. The increase of this disease In twenty- five years among the Anglo-Saxons 01 these mountains led Dr. Stucky to make a trip of observation through five coun ties on muleback. He described unmistakably evidence of the infeciousness and destructtive- ness of the disease. He gave the dele gates what he considered a solution of the problem of eradicating the malady. Trachoma among the Indians was dis cussed in a paper by Dr. J. W. Schere- wesky, of Washington, D. C. He assert ed of 39,000 Indians in the United States 17 per cent were suffering from trach oma. The incidence of the disease va- amined in Oklahoma to 0.2 per cent in ries from over 70 per cent of those ex- New York state. The disease was most prevalent among Indians of the boarding schools and least among those on res ervations. ... NEEDLESS BLINDNESS. Six thousand needles cases of blind ness occur in the United States each year. This statement was made by Henry Copley Greene, agent for the conservation of eyesight of the Massa chusetts commission for the blind. This statement; Mr. Greene said, was a challenge to the medical profession and called for the co-operation of Ocu lists, social workers and law makers. Much of the needless blindness, he said, was due to lack of attention to sore eyes among babies. ; - While Dr. C. D. Camp, of Ann Arbor, Mich., had noted no undue proportion of cases of epilepsy and parsis among lc comotive engineers and firemen, he sug gested that it would be in the interest of the traveling public to examine can didates for these positions as to these Afflictions. SUFFRAGIST KILLS SELF Male Suffragist Throws Horse and Jockey on Ascot Race Course (By Associated Press.) ASCOT, England, June 19.—Fired by the recent example of Miss Emily wild ing Davison during the race for the derby, a male suffragist today commit ted suicide zy flinging himself in front of August Belmont's four-year-old Tracery during the race for the valuable Ascot gold cup. His act deprived the American sportsman of a good chance of capturing the trophy. The man was killed on the spot. The horse and its rider, although both were brought to the ground, were not harmed. Waving a flag of the suffragette colors in one hand and brandishing a revolver in the other, the militant suffragiBt sprang over the rails Just as the field of eight horses, with the American colt, Tracery, leading, were nearing the straightaway for the run home. With a loud well of "Stop!" he bound ed in front of the horse. Tracery col lided with and felled him before the Jockey, A. Whalley, had time to avert the catastrophe. REV. W. R. OWENS MADE B. Y. P.

S, Senator From Michigan Declares Before Probe That Lobby Exists in Washington and That He Approves It (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON. June 17.—Senator William Alden Smith, of Michigan, de- dared before the senate lobby investi gating committee today that the dause in the sundry civil bill now awaiting President Wilson’s signature exempting labor unions and farmers’ organizations from prosecution under the Sherman anti-trust law represented the work of a lobby. “The very bill on the president’s desk this morning,” he aaid, “was put through by a lobby of labor organiza tions. They know there is class leg islation in 4t. Samuel Gompers admit ted to me it was class legislation, “Of course the American Federation of Labor has a lobby here. I don’t condemn it. They have a right to be here; so have the sugar people and the others. I think there is a very con siderable lobby here; there always will be and I think it is appropriate. “In everything I have done here I have encountered the lobby. It does not do any harm. “I encountered it in the Titanic in vestigation and the Mexican revolu tion.” Senator Smith added he kknew John Norris, of the “newspaper people” had been here for free print .paper. He added that the “temperance peo ple” had maintained a lobby in Wash ington. . Senator Smitn said he approved of the use of influence by presidents. He said that every president since Cleve land had undertaken to influence legis lation. 'T 115 “ FRI ’S H SUFFRAGIST ROBS T OF RACE Male Suffragist Throws "Tra cery” While Horse Was Leading Ascot Derby ASCOT, England, June 19.—A male suffragist today flung himself in front of August Belmont’s four-year-old Tracery during the race for the Ascot gold cup. The man was fatally injured. Tracery fell in a heap in the center of the course, but his jockey, Whalley, fell clear of him. Neither horse nor jockey were seriously hurt. The man sprang over the rails with a suffrage flag in one hand and a revolver in the other while the eight runners in the famous race were turning info the straight for ltome with Tracery in the lead. He made a grab at Tracery’s bri dle, brought horse and rider down and himself fell in a heap with liis skull fractured by a horse’s hoof. The unconscious man, who was not identified, was removed to the Ascot hos pital. A surgeon announced that his condition was hopeless. It had been thought by the spectators that he was instantly killed. Club Standing SOUTHERN SOUTH ATLANTIC. w. L. Pet. W. L. Pet.

COLUMBIA, S. C., June 19.—“The designation of Friday as 'Hangsman’s day’ is loathsome. Why should it bo picked out as a day to execute crimi nals, I have stated, on a number of oc casions, by objection to this practice and as long as I have the power to ob viate this custom I am going to do so. Friday is enjoyed by all the people equally as much as any other day in the week, therefore, why set it apart as ‘Hangsman’s day,?’” said Governor Blease this morning in ordering the sen tence by electrocution passed on M. L. Garrett, the Lee county white murderer, changed from Friday, July 11, to Mon day, July 14. The governor is determined to break up the custom of executing criminals on Friday, and thinks it tends to make the day loathsome. In ordering the date of the execution of Sam Dukes, the negro Clarendon county murderer, changed from Friday, 27, to Tuesday, July 1, the governor says: "Why, when or how prevailing custom of sentencing people to be hanged or electrocuted on Friday should have been adopted in this state, I am unable to say. Friday is just as good as any other day in the week, and I think it an abominable custom and practice to sen tence all of the unfortunate persons to die on Friday, thereby degrading the day by designating it as ‘Hangsman’s day.’ This custom and practice should be abolished and I expect to do away with it while I am in office.” From the inception of the state it has been customary to hold all legal execu tions on Friday, and judges were accus tomed to sentence air condemned crim inals to death on that day. Governor Blease has set himself the task cf breaking up this custom. FROM FLORIDA CAPITOL MARTINF RATHER SWEEP STREETS THAN OWN MINE Mine Probe Is Overshadowed by Dispute Between Senator and Operator (By Associated Press.) CHARLESTON, W. Va., June 19.—The senate committee investigating the West Virginia coal strike today rushed along the examination of witnesses to dispose of as many as possible before leaving for Washington tonight. The attitude of Senator Martine, of New Jersey, who yesterday clashed with Qyinn Morton, an operator, and the at torneys for the operators, became a mat ter of concern today. The operators’ lawyers declare Sena tor Martine has been unfair in his exam ination of and prejudiced in his attitude toward the operators. They said that when the committee reaches Washington they will put into the records evidence of statements by Senator Martine to Bhow that he has “prejudiced the case.” A statement purporting to come from Senator Martine and reproduced in fac simile of his handwriting by a newspa per circulated, throughout tjie 6tate to day aroused considerable discussion. The statement sets forth that Senator Mar tine, “would rather sweep the streets than earn his money as the West Vir ginia coal operators do.” Attorneys declared they would place this statement in the records. Senator Martine today sat throughout the hearings, but asked no questions, under an agreement reached that Sena tor Kenyon was to take sole charge of examining witnesses. John A. Greene, superintendent of the Mucklow mine of the Paint Creek col lieries company when the strike broke out, said guards were not placed on Paint Creek until men at work had been interfered with by strikers. When the guards arrived they were not armed but after strikers had made a demon stration, he said, the guards were in creased and armed. Walter Belk, who was for a time in charge of the guards, defended their conduct. He said that after the battle of Mucklow he searched the hills and found places carefully prepared for the shooting. He said men evidently had been in these places for hours before hey began firing. Attorney Belcher caused a start in the committee room when he asked Belk: “Isn’t it true that fifteen or twenty armed men connected with your agency, have been in this room throughout this investigation. “I could not say as to that,” answered That Wonderful Event 1lilllUJIIiill]|IIIUH!!HUt!l]QUU0)Uai8I9 I F THERE is a time above all times when a woman should be in perfect physical condition it is the time previous to the coming of her babe.

SOUTHERN RY. HEAD ANSWERS RIS CRITICS W, W, Finley Says He Has No Personal Interest in Timber Lands BY BAX.PK SMITH. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 18.—The name of President W. W. Finley, of the Southern railway, having been used on the floor of the house in connection with attacks on conservation in the west. Representative Austin wrote President Finley calling his attention to the speech of Mr. Humphrey, and re ceived an answer which has been placed in the Congressional Record. The Southern railway president says he has absolutely no personal interest in timber lands anywhere, and the only interest of the Southern railway in th© matter is the adoption by forest owners of the southeast of such forestry prac tice as may tend to advance the gen eral prosperity of the territory along the company’s lines. Belk. “Don’t you know that your men have been # hired to ©had.ow gentlemen con nected with the investigation?” “I could not say as to that because that is not my line of work.” Attorney Knight denied vigorously that detectives had been hired by the operators to shadow men connected with the investigation.
