Mac Millan is a fine young man, well fitted for the task he has set himself and thoroughly experienced. But he has run into the ice that comes piling down through Smith sound, between Etah and Cape Sabine. “It is bound to handicap him. By the time the ice is safe to cross, the artic night will be advanced and MacMillan will have only about a month to do nec essary preliminary work.” BANKERS DISCUSS MONEY BILL BEFORE COMMITTEE (By Associated Press.)

Her New Husband, Formerly of Macon, Faces Charges Before Presbyterian Church Board in Texas — Was For merly Miss Lillian Phillips, Told Husband of Other Man Before Leaving -- Was Mar ried to Mr, Yeaton When 18 Years Old Dispatches to The Journal last night from Fort Worth, Tex., tell of the mar riage of an Atlanta young woman to a young Presbyterian minister, formerly of Macon, after she had obtained di vorce from her first husband, whom she married when eighteen years old. Her maiden name was restored when the divorce was granted. The minister has been summoned be fore his church board because of the affair. The Atlantians who figured in the drama are Mr. and Mrs. William Hall Yeaton, and the minister is Rev. Lloyd B. Field. Mr. Yeaton is the credit man for the International Agriultural Corpo ration, of this city ,and has an apart ment at 17 West Cain street. Rev. Mr. Field, who formerly was pastor of several small Presbyterian churches at Macon, was early last April called to the pastorate of the Presbyte rian church at Warren, Ark. A year before he left Macon he visited Atlanta and a mutual friend introduced him to Mrs. Yeaton at a soda fountain. TOLD OF OTHER MAN. An immediate attachment *grew up be tween the minister and Mrs. Yeaton. Mr. Yeaton knew nothing of his wife’s acquaintance with the minister pntil after the latter had gone to Arkansas. One day in the. early part of last April, ho says, his wife confided to him that she was in love with Rev. Mr. Field and announced her intention to go on a visit to an uncle in Fort Worth. Mr. Yeaton says he was deeply griev ed and shocked, but feeling that there had been no misconduct between his wife and the minister he agreed for her to go to Texas, hoping that after mature reflection she would reconsider. He states that he accompanied her to the train, bought her a ticket, gave her money, kissed her good-by, and that from cities along the way of her jour ney she sent him telegrams; that she again wired him after her arrival at Fort Worth and later wrote him en dearing letters. “I continued to correspond with my wife and sent her liberal sums oi money,” says Mr. Yeaton. “Two or three months after she went away I learned through a woman friend of hers that she did not intend to return to me and it was then, and then only, that I stop ped sending her money. However, I continued to write to her urging her to reconsider and to do nothing that would bring unhappiness to both herself and to me. ASKS FOR DIVORCE. “On September 3 I received a letter from my wife’s attorney requesting me to waive service on divorce suit. After thinking it over and deciding that I should not endeavor to hold my wife if she was determined to abandon me 1 complied with the request. “Not until The Journal informed me did'I know that Mrs. Yeaton had ob tained the divorce and that she had married Field. The entire matter is a great shock and deeply embarrassing to me. For my own defense I desire to state that while it was true that Mrs. Yeatop was under age when I married her—being but eighteen—her mother and father consented to the marriage and the mother obtained the marriage license for us. We were engaged a year before marrying, and for the last eight months of that period I was a boarder in my wife’s hqme. “If there was any incompatibility be tween us I did not know it. Until just a few days before she. went away to Texas I was happy with her and had no desire but to administer to her happi ness. I lavished my salary and my at tentions upon her.” Mrs. Yeaton (now Mrs. Field), was formerly Miss Lillian Phillips, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. E. L. Phillips, of Warsaw, Richmond county, Va* Mr. and Mrs. ff Yeaton resided together in At lanta from September, 1911, to April, 1913. HER LETTER TO YEATON. A letter from his wife which was written to Mr. Yeaton at the time her attorney was requesting the waiver on the divorce petition service follows: "My Dear Bill: “Today, perhaps, Mr. Burns will send you the waiver to sign, y After careful, serious thought I can see no other way. for a greater injustice than obtaining a legal separation could be done you (in living a lie) than in being honest and truthful. “The whole affair is unfortunate, but I can’t see any other way out of it.

Baby Girl Found Lying in Middle Of Railroad Track (Special Dispatch to The Journal.! MACON, Ga., Sept. 29.—While walk ing along the track of the Central of Georgia railroad near the M. and A. junction, three miles from the city, at 7 o’clock this morning, W. S. Daniels, a section foreman, nearly stumbled upon what appeared to be a bundle of clothes. Stooping to pick it up, he was amazed to discover that the object was a tiny baby, lying face downward in the dirt and cinders. its little -eyes were almost blinded with tears ana d.irt and its face was badly bruised. However, the child was very much alive and in lusty shape. It had evidently cried for hours until exhausted, for all it could do was sob and in a heart-rendering manner. The baby, a girl with luxuriant dark hair, was wrapped up in two outing kimonos and was also tied in a sling to which was attached a rope made of cloth torn from a woman’s underdress. Apparently the infant had been lowered out of a train window and dropped near the track during the night. This is the onjy supposition arrived at by those who investigated the circumstances.

MEEK, “Clerk of Session.” Worked in Office of County Clerk in Texas (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) FORT WORTH, Tex., Sept. 29.—After getting a divorce only a few days ago, Miss Lillian Phillips, of Atlanta, Ga.. tonight married Rev. Lloyd B. Field, of Warren, Ark. Miss Phillips obtained her maiden name early this week, by an order of Judge Marvin M. Brown, of the Sixty-seventh district court.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala., Sept. 29.—Three men are still held in jail in this city in connection with the hold-up of Ala bama Great Southern passenger train about midnight Thursday night. These men are Robert Vaugnan, aged about sixteen; Harry H. Poll, and John Gan non, three of the five men arrested near Eutaw last night. Detectives and local officers claim that they do not believe the men in jail are guilty parties, blit there is a feel ing that this attitude is adopted for a purpose. The prisoners are being kept as much as possible from being inter viewed, and the members of the train crew have been positively instructed not to discuss the situation. Detectives have made numerous more or less long trips into the country during the day, and as each returns a hurried confer- ene is held. The chauffers have been ordered to refuse to disclose where these trips led them, and the officers are silent. Late this evening one returning par ty brought a large basket containing, among other things, a coffee pot and some wearing apparel. The entire bun dle was carried to a hotel room and several detectives called in for con ference. Robert Vaughan, the youngest of the trio now in jail, was interviewed this afternoon and denied any connection with the robbery, although he says the entire party was on the train. He claims to live in New Orleans, and says that he was on his way home when ar rested. Poll and Gannon, although not seen by newspaper men, claim, it is said on good authority, that they are employ ed at one of the industries around Bessemer, Ala., near Birmingham, and that they are acquainted with Vaughan One of them, it is stated, on the same authority, claims to have boarded at the same place as Vaughan, and that the party had expressed their baggage through to New Orleans. The men claim that they were on top of the cars when the hold-up occurred, and say that they were afraid to move for fear of being shot, and say that they did not even rise up and look. Vaughan says he was on top of the express car when the safe was dynamited and that when the hole was blown through the roof part of the debris flew up near him; He says he then crawled back on the baggage car, where the other two men say they were at the time. The stories of the three men are very similar, each and all of them claiming to have remained on top of the ex press car until the runaway engine stopped at Englewood, when the steam was exhausted. Each of the men deny knowing when the runaway train was stopped for the robbers to get off, although they were all on top of the baggage car during the wild ride, claiming that they were asleep when the cars were pulled back to Tuscaloosa after being recovered, waking up at a crossing near this city. They admit that the trail the dogs took down at Phifer was made by them, and Vaughan admits that the hat found is his and that he bought it at Hull’s. The negro fireman who got a good glimpse of the robbers early today said that the mfen under arrest bore strong resemblance to the robbers. Later, while being interviewed by the Advertiser cor respondent, the negro was called to one side by a company detective and in structed not to talk. He then became doubtful as to his identification. Ex press Messenger Kelly declined to state whether the men are the robbers, but it is not known what he told the offi cers. POLICE TRY TO DRAW MOON IN DENTON CASE (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Sept. 29.—The Birmingham police are attempting to connect W. A.

Relief for Catarrh Sufferers Now FREE Vou Can Now Treat This Trouble in Your Own Home and Get Relief at Once. How the Remedy for Catarrh Was Discovered. By the new method the nose and throat are treated by an effective local remedy applied directly to the afflicted mem branes. nTHIS terrible disease has raged unchecked for years simply because symp toms have been treated while the vicious germs that cause the trouble have been left to circulate in the blood, and bring the disease back as fast as local treatments could relieve it C. E. Gauss, who experimented foi' years on a treatment for Catarrh, found that after perfecting a balm that relieved the nose and throat troubles quickly, he could not prevent the trouble beginning all over again. On test cases, he could completely remove all signs of Catarrh from nose and throat, but in a few weeks they were back. The Elixir, taken into the stomach, has a direct influence upon the mu cous membranes of the body and cures the dis ease by remov ing the cause. Careful experiments and investigations have shown that as the troubles were expelled from the nose and throat, the real cause of the disease was overlooked and in a short time the Catarrh would return stronger than ever. Mr. Gauss has gone way ahead of the ordinary methods of treatment and has-provided a remedy that Kills the Germs in the Blood and immediately lief to the nose am ives re- throat. He perfected the New Combined tted to l since Treatment. admitted to be the logical, sure, scientific method. Reese Jones, of Scranton, Penn., says that after trying many other treatments, he used this new method and—“My nose is now entirely clear and free and I am not bothered by the disease any more. The New Combined Treatment is worth its weight in gold.” Temporary relief from catarrh may be obtained in other ways, but the New Combined Treatment must inevitably be accepted for permanent results. Sarah J. Cape, Mount Pella, Tenn., says, “I • • suffered the pains and distress of catarrh for thirteen years and needless to state, tried nearly every method.
