Ala. Mr. Stringfellow is well known in rail . wav circles and is on the Atlanta and Birmingham division. His many friends wilt be glad to hear of bis complete res toration to health. “I suffered from-stomach trouble and Indigestion for four years,” continued Mr. Stringfellow, "and got so I couldn't eat hardly anything. I fell off until 1 only weighed 118 pounds and Anally ftot so weak and run down I was on the point of having to resign my position. To tell you the truth, 1 just felt like life was not worth living because 1 just seemed to be getting worse all the time and nothing seemed to do me any good. “I would have awful pains in my back and kidneys and could hardly sleep. Two hours each night would be about all the sleep I would get Most always after eat ing I would have gas on my stomach and my heart would palpitate. I would get weak In my limbs and have dizzy spells snd would have spots in front of mj eyes. ••About a month ago I began reading about Tanlac. and heard the railroad men talking about it. Several of my friebds had taken the medicine and said it was a fine thing for stomach trouble, eo 1 decided to give it a trial. The first bottle helped me so much 1 kept on taking it and liave just finished my fifth bottle. When I weighed the other day I kicked the beam at 141 pounds, and was so surprised I turned around to see if some one was not standing on the scales. Yes. sir. that s a fact. I had actually gained 23 pounds and feel like a well man again for the first time in four years. "Tanlac helped me right from the • start, and before I had finished taking :• the second bottle I got so I would eat - ; and sleep and work as good as anybody That’s what the medicine did for me and everybody who knows me will tell you the same thing. Why, I can just eat anything now and indigestion never bothers me a particle any more. I can sleep good, too and feel just as fine in ** every way Speaking of eating, my gro cery bills have gone up to almost dou <• ble. “Just to show you what I think of the a medicine I bought a dozen bottles today in order to always have a supply on t hand. I wouldn't be without it for any thing in the world.” Tanlac is sold by leading druggists in all principal towns of the south.

LdEESBURG, Ga.. Jan. 21.—Verdict of the coroner's jury was that the five ne groes at Starkville came to their death from gunshot wounds at the hands of parties unknown. It Is rumored that they confessed to the murder of Moreland. (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) ALBANY. Ga., Jan. 21.—Forty or fifty! men acting with precision indicative of carefully laid plans took five negroes from the Worth county jail at Sylvester last night, carried them in automobiles to Lee county and hanged them all to one limb of a tree close by the side *ef the principal road leading into Stark ville. The negroes were being held in. the Worth county jail in connection with the killing of Sheriff Moreland, of Lee county, who met his death at the hands of negroes in Worth county dur- j ing the Christmas holidays. Starkville is a hamlet three miles from Leesburg, the count)’ seat of Lee county. Mem bers of the party were not masked. Sheriff Potts states that he did not rec ognize any of them. Cutting all wires leading north from Sylvester was included in the plans of the party. For that reason the fate of | the negroes was not definitely known until today, hours after they had been i lynched. They were quickly taken from j the jail, loaded into automobiles and' started north, but nothing more than I that was known for some time. The bodies, perforated with bullet holes, were cold when found this morning. At about 10 o'clock last night Sheriff L. A. Potts and his jailer at Sylvester, were awakened by four or five men who announced that they had captured a negro and wanted to place him in jail. They were admitted bearing a negro bound with ropes. Suspecting nothing, ' the officers watched the men as they calmly loosened the bonds. Suddenly the situation changed, however, as the visitors seized the officers and demand ed the keys to the cells. They soon were forthcoming. At that moment several automobiles were driven in front of the jalL The men in them hurried ly entered, joined the men who had preceded them and all who did not watch the officers helped get the negroes. The negroes were rushed out of jail, , bundled into the machines and all start- ■ed north at a rapid pace. The officers immediately attempted to resort to the telephone to head off the party, but it was soon ascertained that all lines north were out of order. Later It was learned they had been cut. The bodies were found by Lee county citizens who were out on the roads early today apparently under the impression that there was reason to believe that if any of the negroes were taken from the jail they would be taken to Lee county, where Sheriff Moreland was pop ular. Going out from Starkville a short ' distance they encountered the scene of i the five men hanging to one limb within full view from the road. Apparently they had been strung up and then be came targets for the men who had taken them from jail. Four of the victims were of one fami ly—Felix Lake and his three sons, j Frank, Dewey and Major. The fifth was i Uodius Semore. It was believed, however, that James J Kieth, a negro, was the prisoner most wanted by the lynchers. It was said that there was more evidence against nim than any of the others. Sheriff Potts, however, had taken the precaution to remove him. several hays ago. to some other jail, the location of which he has not divulged. , Judge W.F.Eve, Noted Jurist, Is Dead at Augusta (Special Dispatch to The Journal.)

JUDGE HANDS DOWN IMPORTANT DECISION (By Associated Press.) • MEMPHIS, Tenn., Jan. 21.—Federal Judge J. S. McCall handed down an opinion of widespread interest today when he decided that intoxicating liquors shipped into Tennessee are sub ject to the laws of the state from the time they reach their destination in Tennessee until they again leave the .border of the state or are placed in the hands of an interstate carrier for transportation out of the state. , Under the ruling "selling in transit” by reconsignments from local jobbers is effectually barred as being unlawful. There are about thirty wholesale liquor firms in this city operating in Alabama, Mississippi and Arkansas. The opinion was given on an applica tion for an injunction filed by Laughter & Fisher, a liquor firm, to restrafti city officials from interfering with their business. A temporary restraining order granted by Judge McCall several days ago was vacated. • The firm in seeking the injunction contended that it was conducting a le gitimate interstate liquor business and sought the protection of interstate com merce laws. After quoting from the •• ebb-Kenyon law showing that the shipment of liquors from one state or territory into another state or territory in violation of any law of such state is prohibited, the court held: "We are of the opinion, therefore, that the plaintiffs in this case, if conduct ing an interstate business, are not pro tected by the constitution and laws of congress relating to interstate com merce.” ASTORIA FARM WORK TO BE SEENJN MOVIES (Special Dispatch to The Journal.)

Moonshiner, 18, From ‘Nowhere’, Gets His Chance John Bruce Tells Federal Judge | ‘Grubb He's Guilty-Draws Two Year Course in Nation . al Training School for Boys He was a tall, lanky mountaineer, measuring six feet two inches, hiss hick ory shirt open at the throat and tweed trousers stuffed into heavy mud-covered boots proclaiming him Indeed a son of the hills. All eyes turned expectantly toward him as his case—the last of the moonshin ers—was sounded in the United States court for tne northern district of Geor- I gia at noon yesterday, bringing to a ' close a Week of illicit distillery trials. "Who are you, where do you hail from j and what have you to say?" interrogated I Judge W. 1. Grubb, of Birmingham, pre i siding in the place of Judge W. T. I Newman. | "I am John Bruce, eighteen years old, of ‘Nowhere,’ and I am guilty of moon shining," replied the youth. He shuf fled uneasily in his heavy shoes and continued, ”1 have never done it before and I dont know why I did it this time." Interrupting him, Judge Grubb said: “What do you mean by saying you are from “Nowhere." Have you no home, no parents?" "My mother is dead,” answered the boy, "and my father —I don’t know where he is. I am from ’Nowhere’ because I live in no place—just nere and there and yonder. It Is the kind of life I like —this moving from place to place in the mountains." Every eye in the court room was focused on Bruce and he appeared em barrassed.” "You have started on the road to ruin entirely too young,” said the court. "I believe there is the making of a man in you. If you are placed in the proper atmosphere you may yet overcome the bad start you have made. “There is an institution in Washing ton where boys of your age and type are made men of and I am going to send you there for a term of two years. It is the National Training School for Boys, conducted by the federal govern ment. If there is any good in you, and I believe there is, you will come out equipped for real work and a bright future.” And so it was that John Bruce, of ‘No where” was given a home and an oppor tunity to reform. The sentence imposed on Bruce was the heaviest given oy Judge Grubb dur ing the entire week, but the case stood out by itself for its uniqueness. In all there were 75 nloonshiners tried, some of whom however, had two or three cases against them. Os these, thirty en tered pleas of guilty and forty-five fought out their cases before juries. Os the latter there were two mistrials and forty-three convictions. They were, of course, a number of bond forfeitures, and some few cases were continued for the term. The average sentence imposed by Judge Grubb was about two months. URGES - STEPS TO INSURE ENGLAND’S TRADE POSITION (By Associated Press.) LONDON, Jan. 21.—H. W.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.—An endorse ment of Secretary Garrison’s efforts toward enlargement of the nation’s mil itary forces was voted today by the National Security league, with the res ervations that the regular mobile army should be even greater than that con templated by the war department, and that adequate national defense would depend ultimately upon “universal ob ligatory military training and service."

SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Jan. 22.—An army of mosquito-eating bats, several thousand strong, will be turned loose in San Antonio next month. If, as has been predicted for it, the army succeeds in crippling seriously the activities of the germ-laden mosquito population, many other cities may follow San An tonio’s example and establish their "municipal bat roosts.” Dr. C. A. R. Campbell, who has made a special study og bats, is responsible for San Antonio’s bat roost. The insti tution came into existence last spring. It was not a success in its first year owing to the fact that it was established late in the spring, and its population was not numerous enough. This spring there is a large army of bats on hand and it is expected to get an early start. Dr. Campbell says that one bat in the course of a single day will eat one thousand mosquitoes. He expects hordes of mosquitoes to perish daily, and that by the end of the summer the pestiferous insects will be almost, if not entirely, missing from this locality. The flight of the bats will begin about February 15 and from then until April 30 they will fly about all night long, trailing and devouring m’osquitoes. Dr. Campbell says that the more malaria, typhoid and other germs a mosquito carries, the better the bat relishes it. After April 30 the bats grow less hun gry and more sleepy. By the end of July their flight totals only about two hours. Soon thereafter the season for baby bats arrives. A neighboring city having written to Dr. Campbell asking him to get rid of mosquitoes, he replied: “Breed bats.” Then he got another letter inquiring “But when you’ve got rid of the mosqui toes how do you get rid of the bats?” 24 Make Get-Away LITTLE ROCK.
