WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.—Secretary
Daniels ruled today that he had no ju
risdiction over the kind of fluid that
may be used to christen battleships.
Drotests have been made against the
use of champagne in launching the bat

made that a bottle of pure water be
dashed over the bow or that a white
dove, symbolizing peace be released
frcm the decK.
Mr. Daniels decided the shipbuildrs
were entirely in charge of launchings.
“I have no doves, no wines, no cham
pagne,” he wrote. “It is a thing en
tirely in the hands of the builders.”

WOMEN SUBJECT TO
KIDNEY TROUBLES
-I beg to say that I have been a con
stant sufferer with severe pains in my
hack and was on the verge of nervous
prostration resulting from kidney
trouble and other complications. A
■ friend of mine recommended Dr. Kil
mer’s Swamp-Root as a sure cure for
these troubles. Acting upon her advice,
* I began taking Swamp-Root and began
to improve before I had finished the first
bottle. I continued its use until I had
taken several bottles, and continued to
\ Improve until I was completely cured.
I am happy to say that I am as well
as any woman on earth, and have been
so for the past nine years, thanks to Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and I cheerfully
recommend it to all who suffer from
kidney troubles.
Very truly yours,

Former A'tlantfan Paid High
Honor for Great Work in
Fusion Campaign Against
Tammany Hall
(Special Dispatch to The; Journal.)
NEW YORK, Dec. 18.—Bob Adamson,
native Georgian and former Atlantian,
was toasted at a banquet given in his
honor at the Waldorf last night, at the
conclusion of which he was presented
with a $1,000 silver service in recogni
tion of his services for good govern
ment in Greater New York through his
successful management of the fusion
-forces in the campaign against Tam
many ha^l.
After Mayor Kline had attributed the
success of his administration to the ad
vice of Mr. Adamson, Mayor-elect John
Purroy Mitchel struck a responsive
chord among the diners when he de
clared:
”1 will go further and say that I ex
pect to have the benefit of the advice
•gnd service of Mr. Adamson in my ad
ministration.” /
Chairman William F. McCombs, of the
Democratic national committee, one of
the speakers, applauded the statement
of Mayor-elect Mitchel. “No matter in
what department the mayor-elect, is
fortunate enough get Mr. Adamson
to serve, he will be of great service
and value to the people of this great
city,” said McCombs.
ATLANTA REPRESENTED.
The banquet was attended by more
than 700 representative citizens of New
York—business men. professional men
and politicians. Alfred Newell and
William Hurd Hillyer were present as
representatives of the city of Atlanta.
Mrs. Mitchel, Mrs. Kljne, Mrs. Adam
son and Miss May, Mrs. Adamson's sis
ter, occupied a box in the grand ball
room and watched the proceedings. The

VICKSBURG, Miss., Dec. 18.—With
the three technicalities which most fre
quently delay trials eliminated after bit
ter fights, the Warren county circuit
court today was ready to proceed with
the trial of State Senator G. A. Hobbs.
Hobbs is jointly charged with Lieu
tenant Governor Bilbo with receiving
and soliciting bribes, but it was decided
to try them separately. The defense
had lost a motion to quash the indict
ment, its demurrer to the indictment
was overruled and its plea for a change
of venue weny for naught. One hun
dred veniremen were summoned to ap
pear today. It was expected that it
would take some time to obtain a jury.
Pitted against each other as counsel
are some of the most prominent lawyers
in the state, and there are many of
them on each side. Governor Earl
Brewer will bo one of the important
witnesses for the prosecution. It is
said the state also will introduce much
evidence said to have been obtained
through telephonic devices. It iS( report
ed that these machines have been al
most constantly at work in hotels in at
least two towns of Mississippi for
many weeks, one of them even being
hidden in a writing room.
Charges and countercharges by the
two political factions have been numer
ous since Bilbo and Hobbs were indict
ed, and today Vicksburg is filled with
adherents of both sides.

Radium Cures Cancer
Say Medical Experts;
This Is Not an “Ad”
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. ^18.—Stimulus
has been given to the movement for a
radium bank in Philadelphia by the an
nouncement made last night by Dr.
Howard. A. Kelley, of John* Hopkins
university,' and Dr. Robert Abbe, of
New York, that the word cure can now
properly be applied to the radium form
of treatment of cancer. Physicians to
day are discussing the statements made
by those two physicians that the power
of the Gamma rays of radium over
certain forms of chance is not only
wonderful, but almost unbelievable.
Dr. lielly exhibited photographs of
patients before and after being cured,
and told of the cure in forty-eight
hours of a man suffering from malig
nant cancerous growths on the face and
head.
The physicians were careful to state
that the cure can at present be applied
only to superficial cancer in its early
stages. What the mysterious element
may accomplish in advanced and in
ternal cases is a matter for further ex
periment, they said.
The meeting of the College of Physi
cians and Surgeons at which the two
specialists spoke was attended by many
of the physicians and surgeons of Phil-
delphia and they listened in obvious
amazement to the addresses. As a re
sult of the meeting it is expected that
the projected radium bank, where will
be on deposit a portion of the curing
element, will soon be established. Then
patients can be brought from all sec
tions and subjected to the radium rays
for the treatment not only of cancer,
but other diseases ip which its use has
ben found to be efficacious.
PRICES COME DOWN
AFTER EGG BOYCOTT
KANSAS CIT^, Mo., Dec. 18/—An egg
boycott, declared ten days ag- by wom
en’s organizations of Kansas City, was
lifted today. Storage eggs were selling
at 40 cents at the time the boycott was
started. Tbday they retailed at 30 to 34
cents.
“Of course, if the price goes up again
we will cease using eggs,” said Mrs. W.
Q. Church, president of the Housewives’
league, today. “But as long as the mar
ket is down we need not deny cur-
selv es.“
Fresh eggs sold today at 86 to 38
cents. Commission men ascribe the
drop in prices more to increasing arriv
als because of mild weather tnan to
the boycott.

CITY CHRISTMAS TREE
UP m MAPIS 0N SQUARE
NEW YORK, Dec. 18.—The municipal
Christmas tree for 5,000,000 New York
ers has been set up in Madison square.
The idea of a large municipal Christ
mas tree In the open air was tried for
the first time last year and met with
such success that it is not only to be
repeated here, but to be adopted this
Christmas in cities throughout the
country.
; Electricians have begun trimming the
tree in Madison square and beneath its
twinkling- branches delegations from the
city’s\ choral societies will sing yule-
tide carols Christmas eve.
Mona Lisa Theft Tried
Out by Art Experts; It
Is Only 30 Inches High
PARIS, Dec. 18.—Police and officials
of the Louvre after careful examination,
give full credence to Vincenzo Perugia’s
story of the theft of the “Mona Lisa.”
Seymour de Ricci, an art expert, 'de
scribed today the experiments made im
mediately after the “Mona Lisa,” was
stolen. A dummy picture of the same
size and weight—from thirty-five to for
ty pounds with the /frame—was easily
removed by a police official Who had no
experience in handling pictures and whov
carried it twenty yards to the stair
case where the frame was subsequently
found. The operation required, less
than one minute. A man accustomed to
transporting pictures did the same
thing in twenty seconds. It has been
proved that Perugia had assisted in
rehanging the “Mona Lisa” some time
before the theft.
The picture without its frame is
about twetny-one inches wide by thirty
inches high and weighs five pounds.
The painting is on wood less than an
inch thick.
Signor Chini, the Italian painter,
writes to a Florence paper today urging
a theory that the theft of the “Mona
Lisa” was “stimulated, in order to con
ceal some badly executed restoration of
the picture.” He states that he him
self detected on the painting some re
touches of which there is no official
record. He thinks it would be inter
esting to establish whether all the
restorations now traceable existed be
fore the picture left the Louvre.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.—When Santa
Claus makes his rounds in Jersey City
this Christmas he surely will not for
get to visit the home of little Leona,
who has written him a pathetic little
plea. She addressed the letter “in care
Mr. Tumulty, Mr. Wilson’s head man.”
“Dear Sandy Claus: Mother says that
you won’t call to us this Chris-maes,”
little Leona wrote, “as we are too poor
for you to go down to 272 Washington
street, as you won’t have anything left
when you leave the Hill, so dear \Sandy
Claus, try and save me a big doll and a
Big Karage for it to ri<^e in and any
thing you like Sandy dear you can
bring.
“Our stocking will be hung up in the
basement. Will leave the window*
open for you as the chimery is to smal
for you to come down. Wee all wish
you a meryy Chrismass and a happy
new year. Good Mister Sandy Claus,
don’t forget and come, and come Sandy
Claus to us three children. We live in
the basement.”
The little appeal was inclosed in a
letter to Secretary Tumulty asking to
be excused for addressing him, as
mother says “you are always bussy,”
but “iriother is out of work.”

statement that he was insane when he
killed Anna Aumuller.
“It’s a lie,” he shouted, brandishing ,

fendant had been for many years, is

burst from thep risoner.
The father described how, when eight
years old, the prisoner exhibited marked
religious peculiarities. He erected an
altar and keut the vestments of a

“He used to catch his mother’s geese, *
