Railroad Man Says Tanlac Is
the Only Thing That Ever
Helped Him After Suffering
Four Years
"If the people of this town only knew
what Tanlac had done for me you would
sell a thousand bottles tomorrow," eaid
Tom Stringfellow, a well known* em
ploye of the Southern railway, who Ilves
at 124 East Ninth street, Anniston. 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.

Five Hanged to
The Same Limb
Near Starkville
(Negroes Taken From Worth,
County Jail at Sylvester—
Bodies Are Riddled With
Bullets
■ -
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
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. ,

(J. S. 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.”

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.

League Insists, However, on
Universal Compulsory Mili

Will Insure Supremacy
(By Associated Press.)
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."
A greater navy than has been outlined
by the navy department was urged..
Steps to co-ordinate the work of or
ganizations seeking greater armament
were endorsed.
It was understood tonight that defi
nite plans had been made for a general
consolidation of such organizations In a
defense league with Robert Bacon as
its president. Besides the National Se
curity league, societies expected to en
ter the new organization include the
Navy league, the Army league, the
American Defense society, the Aero
club of America, and many others.
Secretary Garrison’s program was
endorsed as a first sound step toward
adequate preparedness by Elihu Root

San Antonio Sets
A Swarm of Bats
After Mosquitoes
(By Associated Press.)
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?”
