Is Officially Distinguished as 124th Infantry—Reorgani zation of Brigade , (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) CAMP WHEEL.ER, MACON, Ga.. Sept. 4.—The first of the advance guard of Florida troops which, with those of Ala bama and Georgia, will be stationed here, arrived this morning. Company D, of the former First Flori da regiment, and the field hospital corps arrived from Jacksonville. There are 13S men in the former and seventy in the latter. Company E. of the First Florida, will arrive from Plant City Wednesday. Ambulance detachment D, of the former Alabama brigade, left Montgomery this morning and will arrive at Camp Wheel er at midnight. (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) CAMP HARRIS. MACON, Ga.. Sept. 4.—Re-organization of the former Geor i gia brigade into smaller units in line with the plans adopted by the war de partment. based on experience of French and English in trench warfare, has begun. Details of the plan were disclosed in orders issued by Major General F. J. Kernan late yesterday assigning the 200 reserve officers to the Georgia, Ala- I buna and Florida troops. ITactlcally i all of the reserve officers live in Ten nessee and recently were commissioned at training camps. The former Georgia brigade, now the Sixty-first. U. 8. A., will be composed of two infantry regiments. They will be the former Fifth regiment of Atlan ta, now the One Hundred and Twenty fourth infantry, and the former Second 1 regiment, of Macon, now the One Hun- j <lred and Twenty-third infantry. Twenty-six reserve officers were as signed to the former and twenty-one to the latter. There were only six vacan cies In the Atlanta regiment, which now has a surplus of twenty officers. They were assigned to companies, however. The size of companies will be increased in accordance with the re-organization plan to 150 men, each. The First regiment, of Savannah, will become the One Hundred and Eight-, eenth field artillery. The machine gun I compnay of that regiment will be de- ■ i tached and form part of a machine 1 gun battalion similar to the One Hun dred and Fifty-first recently drawn from the former Georgia brigade and ordered to - France. There will be 172 men and six officers in each machine gun company. Thirteen reserve offi cers were assigned the First regiment. It is understood that regiment will be detached from the former Georgia brigade and become a part of the Fifty sixth artillery brigade, commanded by Brigadier General J. G. Hayden. Battery A. Georgia field artillery, and the First Alabama cavalry will form the One Hundred and Seventeenth Field artil lery, which also will be a part of the artillery brigade. The remainder of the First battalion, Georgia field artillery. . which includes B battery, of Atlanta, anj the First squadron of Georgia cav alry, which Includes the Atlanta, Savan j nah and Liberty troops, will form the One Hundred and Sixty-sixth field ar tillery, and also will be a part of the ar i tillery brigade. This change means that ’ Georgia will send no cavalry abroad, all i being changed to artillery. Tke two remaining infantry regiments of the former Alabama brigade, com manded by Brigadier General R. B. Steiner, will remain in that branch of I the service. The First Alabama will I become the One Hundred Twenty-first infantry and the Second Alabama the One Hundred Twenty-second. Twenty six reserve officers were transferred to the former and nineteen to the latter. The First battalion of the Second Ala- I bama. with the First Florida Infantry, | with the exception of the machine gun j company of the latter, will form the de ! pot brigade, commanded by Brigadier | General A. H. Blanding. Members of the Fifth were greatly pleased when they learned they were to remain in the infantry branch of the service. As a result, they pointed out, it will be unnecessary for them to again start at the bottom and learn "soldier ing’' again. They also were pleased that they will remain in the brigade commanded by General Walter A. Har ris, who has commanded the Georgia troops for years, and under whom they served on the Mexican border. White House Pickets Bob Up Once More As Selected Men Parade WASHINGTON. Sept. s.—Militants of the national woman’s party made today** procession in honor of men selected for the national army the occasion for more picketing of the White House. Pickets began appearing at the White House gates in pairs, and as the police ar rested them others took their places. The women announced they would keep up the battle as long as the supply of pickets held out. The supply of pickets kept steadily coming to the White House gates as fast as the police made the arrests, and an hour before the procession started ten had been taken in. The women’s managers said they had enough pickets on hand to last all afternoon. The continued arreets seemingly dam pened the ardor of the volunteers, how ever. and after the ten had been taken In the picketing stopped All those ar rested were balled out for trial later. Ugh!

CADORNA PAVES W FOR DBlffl WEDGE INTO MIMI ARMIES Monte San Gabrielle, Last En emy Stronghold in Gorizia District, Falls Before On slaught of Italian Troops NEW YORK. Sept. s.—(By foreign cables from European capitals.)—ltaly’s long years of preparation and General Cadorna's strategy and ability as a com mander continue to bear fruit in the great offensive the Italian armies are now waging for Triest. Monte San Gab'ielle. I’ne last of the Austrian stronghold in the Gorizia dis trict, has been taxen by the valorous Italian trooops, giving them possession of the entire chain of hills dominating the Gorizia area This eminence, in fact, has been vir tually at the mercy of the Italians since the fall of Monte Santo, its neigh boring stronghold. Now that his troops have taken it, the way seems cleared for General Cadorna to complete his domination of ths Bainsizza plateau and push on into the Chiapovono valley, driving a wedge in between the Aus trian nortnern and southern armies on the Isono front, and severing their lines of communication with each other. On the Franco-British front the Brit- | leh bail of shells being dropped upon: the German lines in Flanders is caus-1 ing the Germans to contemplate aban doning a wide expanse of territory there now being swept by General Haig's big guns and those of the French cooperating with him in the Belgian campaign The launching of the next entente push here is apparently Imminent and as a measure of preparation the Ger mans are reported to be removing the civilian population of a district extend ing twelve miles or more to the east of the present front in West Flanders as far as the Thourout-Vourtral line, embracing an area of some 20 square miles. One theory advanced for the report ed evacuation is that the German high command, dreading the effect of the next drive, is preparing to flood the lowlands by diverting water from the river Scheldt, thus blocking allied progress Another supposition is that the Germans, lacking the men to hold the present lines firmly enough, are preparing for another ’‘strategic re treat." Meanwhile, the air forces on both sides are active, not only immediately back of the opposing lines, but in wide ly extended fields. Germany is pushing her air campaign against England to an extent that is leading London to wonder, as one newspaper expresses it, if Germany has got "her great air offen sive" ready before that of the British. Quickly, following the raid on Chat ham, in which more than one hundred naval men were killed and many in jured. a score of German airmen last night attacked the British coast and flew over London. Bombs were cropped which caused the loss of eleven lives and the injury of sixty-two persons. The material damage is said to be small. One German machine is reported to have been brought down. The Brltis*. have carried out further extensive boml’nt raids In Belgium, hitting the Bruges docks, where the Germans have a sub marine base, a heavy blew. Airdromes also bombed with good effect. Russia’s Fighting Women Inspire Their Comrades By Valor Shown at Riga PETROGRAD, Sept. s.—How "the battalion of death," Russia’s fighting women soldiers, threw back German as saults over a front of a fifth of a mile out of Riga and inspired their comrades to hold firm against further advances, was told in front dispatches received today. The battalion of death made its heroic stand at a critical moment in the bat tle, when pursuing German forces had advanced to the point where they se riously menaced the line. It resisted the shock of the enemy assault and then drove the Germans back. "Exceptional valor" was credited to several battalions of death and other Russian units today in semi-official dis patches. At several points their bayon ets stood firm. hacking assaulting waves to pieces. Tottering Demon Rum Tosses Up Sponge at 11 o’Clock Friday Night WASHINGTON, Sept. s.—When tot tering Demon Rum tosses up the sponge at 11 o’clock Friday tonight about 600 distilleries and at least 8,000 men wilt quit their business. The law will permit production of spirits for non-beverage purposes and for the fortification of sweet wine, but experts reckon that only a few distil leries can adjust their machinery to turn out the "high proof" alcohol need ed for industrial and medicinal uses.

ONE-MILL HOM Til IS TO BE URGED UPON STATE . I Milledgeville Good Roads Meeting Monday Adopts Strong Resolution MILLEDGEVILLE, Sept. 4. —At a largely attended good roads meeting here Monday incident to the Dixie Highway inspection tour. President M. M. Allison and the Georgia commissioners, W. T. Anderson and Clark Howell, all made speeches and were active in inaugurat ing a campaign having for its object an amendment to the state constitution providing for the levying of a one-mill tax for road purposes. A resolution to this effect, reading as follows, was adopted: "Be it resolved. That this good roads convention here assembled do hereby petition the state legislature to enact an amendment to the state constitution whereby a tax levy of one mill can be levied and appropriated for good road work in Georgia.’’ The resolution was introduced by Wylie West, of Atlanta, vice president of the Georgia State Automobile asso ciation; J. E. Kidd, of Milledgeville; E. A. Tigner. of Milledgeville; Mayor R. L. Bethea, of Louisville, and B. M. Hunt, of Eatonton. Attending the meeting which adopted the resolution were representatives of all the counties on the Dixie highway be tween Atlanta and Savannah and Macon and Savannah. The suggestion of Mr. West that the automobile clubs of other good roads organizations of each county get behind their representatives in the legislature to have them support such an amendment and be sure that any candidate for election to the legislature guarantee his support of such a project before he is elected was enthusiastically received. ' Commissioners Howell and Anderson made it clear that the Dixie Highway association, in designating a route, will insist that promises of improving high ways be made good, or the designation of the route is subject to being withdrawn. President Allison revealed in his speech here the new plan of the Dixie Highway association for regular annual inspections of the Dixie highway, in its various divisions, and for giving in formation to tourists based upon the finding of these investigations. This would mean practically the rout ing of tourists before they ever arrive in Georgia over those routes whose roads are in best condition and best marked with signboards. Among the speakers were President M. M. Allison and Commissioners Ander son and Howell, of the Dixie Highway association; President M., M. Parke, of the Georgia Normal and industrial col lege; Judge T. E. Patterson, president of the state highway commission; JUdge R. E. Davison, chairman of the state prison commission; B. W. Hunt, of Eatonton; Vice President Wylie West, of the Geor giy State Automobile association, and others. A telegram was read from Commis sioner of Roads Revenues R. J. Freeman, of DeKalb county, pledging a good road for the Dixie highway through that county. « An amendment by Senator Hollis for a flat increase of 60 per cent on war profits later met the same fate as pre ceding proposals. It was rejected 52 to 18. At Curfew’s Ringing Unaccompanied Girls Are Ordered Indoors i MONTGOEMRY. Ala., Sept. s.—Cur few will ring at 9 o’clock at night for all girls under eighteen and unaccom panied as long as the training camp is located here. The city commission has adopted an ordinance preventing any girl under eighteen from being out alone after 9 o’clock and before six o'clock in the morning. It was suggested by the committee on training camp ac tivities. The committee also adopted an or dinance regulating the renting of rooms and preventing any I'automobilist from driving into any dark street or aljby. If a girl violates the curfew law she will be fined $25. Violation of the other laws will mean fines of SIOO or more. 1916 847 distilleries were registered and 635 operated tnroughout the country. These are the latest figures available. The most recent census of manufactur ers shows that 6290 wage earners work ed in distilleries. It is estimated that this total has since Increased one-third. Kentucky with 202 registered distil leries and California with 165 will be the states hardest hit by the new law. Pennsylvania has 68, Ohio 44, Mis souri and Maryland 28 each, and New York 20. • Distilled spirits yielded the United States treasury in the last fiscal year $192,111,318. Scotch Whisky Ship, Somewhere on Atlantic, Runs Race With Time NEW YORK, Sept. 5. —Somewhere on the Atlantic today a Scotch whisky steamer is running a race against thirst. Importation of foreign liquors ends at midnight Sunday, under the law, and there is little Scotch left. If the cargo now on the high seas fails to arrive on time, a Scotch whisky fam ine will arrive in its stead. The last big consignment of “barley bree” from Scotland went to the mermaids when the British steamer Assyria sank last week. Sinkings of British Vessels During Week , Show Slight Increase LONDON. Sept. 6.—Sinkigns of Brit ish vessels by submarines for the past week have been slightly, over those of the previous seven days, according to an authoritative forecast of the offi cial statement obtained today.

Scheme to Assassinate Premier Borden Fails MONTREAL, Sept. 5. —Frustration of plots to assassinate Sir Robert Borden, premier of Canada, and Arthur Meighan, solicitor general, and to dynamite the parliament building at Ottawa, was an nounced by the police today as having been effected by the arrest of anti-con scrlptlonist agitators alleged to have been responsible for the blowing up about a month ago of the summer home of Lord Athelstan. WHIP KAISER AND SAVE RUSSIA, PLEA OF AGED WOMAN Grandmother of Revolution, Heart-Sick Over Situation, Urges America to Strike Hard Before It Is Too Late PETROGRAD, Sept. s.—" The best way for the United States to help save Rus sia is to Whip Germany as soon as pos sible,” Breshko Bereskovskaia, "grand mother of the revolution,” said today. This woman, who dreamed for years of the Romanoffs’ dethronement and the joyous free Russia which would be born with the czar's exile, now sees he*' countrymen bitterly disappointed, sees their armies crumbling before enemy assaults, before treason in the rear, and looks to the United States for help in Russia’s darkest hour. ‘'Millions of Russians who expected the millennium to follow the revolution now find food, money and clothes as hard to get as ever,” she said. “Even the great leaders of the people find their stout hearts strained. When I was a prisoner in a fortress, under the czar, I used to be so sure the revo lution was coming. I spent my time dreaming—not about the revolution — but of what would follow. I saw music, art and the gentleness of civilization de scending upon our masses, upraising and uplifting. "But today I am heart-sick at what is happening.” What Russia needs from America more than railroads Or anything else is an unprecedented, victorious warfare very, very soon, the grandmother of the revolution declared. This, she said, is the cry of the Russians who understand the situation. They are struggling with their own army almost as desperately as the British and French on the western front are struggling with their enemies. A few brave leaders are managing to hold the line more or less Intact, but they are constantly risking their lives at the hands of their own men. With Russian disintegration, Breshko Bereskovskaia pointed out, Germany might secure food in this country, defy the allies' blockade and prolong the war for years. German activities behind the lines are steadily increasing. It was learned that an extensive plot in Moscow to at tempt a coup d’etat dtfring the recent congress there failed, due to the loyalty of the local workmen’s and soldiers’ con ference to Kerensky. More proof of the German activities is seen in increasing factory fires. Explosions were frequent following the partial destruction of Kas san by Are, undoubtedly due to Teuton spies. The American Red Cross is at pres ent the most efficient commission in Rus sia. Its experts are scattering through out the country, studying every aspect of the situation, grimly determined to do everything possible to save the coun try—but hampered by jack of transpor tation and other facilities. Loyal Rus sians, undoyubtedly, are co-operating to the best of their ability. In addition to the arrest of Grand Duke Michael Alexandrovitch. broth er of the former emperor, and his wife, the Countess Pahlen, and the Grand Duke Paul and his morganic wife have also been taken into custody. The reported arrest of Grand Duke Dmltri-Paulovitch is as yet unconfirmed. The arrests are the result of suspected complicity in the counter revolutionary conspiracy concerning which the pro visional government obtained evidence during the Moscow conference. Many ar rests in connection with the plot pre viously had been made. Last night the assistant commander of the Petrograd district, with a detach ment of picked soldiers, arrived at Tsarskoe-Selo and read the order for the arrest to Grand Duke Paul, who submit ted, merely asking the reason. The as sistant commander stated that it was by orders of Premier Kerensky. Later the same officer visited Gatchina and ar rested Grand Duke Michael and his wife. It appears that several days ago a search was made of the residence of the Grand Duke Michael in Finland, which was occupied by him during his presence there. A Colonel Dietz was also arrested at Gatchina. The ministry of justice refuses to give out any facts concerning the ar rests. According to some of the news papers, however, the headquarters of the monarchist conspiracy is Crimea, where other grand dukes and duchesses and the dowager empress reside under surveil lance. In Crnmea, according to the newspapers, there has recently been founded a society under the name of "Forward for the Czar and Holy Rus sia ” which was detected organizing and training “czarist" propagandists with the design of sending them to the front to revive monarchism In the army. Sunset Ltd. Plunges Off Rails; Three Hurt SAN ANTONIO.

JGu W/io ZHaPeJron inTKeirSßzooa - Strong,Zffeaff/iy3 / Doctor Says Ordinary Nuxated Iron Will Make Nervous Bundown People 100 Per Cent Stronger in Two Weeks' Time In Many Cases. NEW YORK, N. Y. —“One glance la Jnougb to tell which'people have iron in their blood, said Dr. E. Sauer, a Boston physician who has studied widely both in thia country and in Great European medical institutions, in a re cent discourse. They are the ones that do and dare. The others are in the weakling class Sleepless nights spent worrying over supposed ailments, constant dosing with habit forming drugs and narcotics for nervous weakness, stomach, liver or kidney disease and useless attempts to brace up with strong coffee or other stimulants are what keep them suffering and vainly longing to be strong. Their reel trouble is lack of iron in the blood. Without iron the blood has no power to change food into living tissue and therefore rftthing you eat does you any good; you don't get the strength out of It. The moment iron is sup plied the multitude of dangerous symptoms dis appear. I have seen dozens of nervous, run down pvople who were ailing all the time, dou ble and even triple their strength and endur ance and entirely get rid of every sign of dys pepsia, liver and other trouble in from ten to fourteen days’ time simply by taking iron in tbe proper form. And thia, after they had in CHICAGO NimOß HANGEO IN EFFIGI BI IIETEMNS Executive of Sixth German City Given Jolt in Home Town CHICAGO, Sept. s.—Wm. Hale Thomp son, mayor of the "sixth German city,” went to the county fair at Kan kakee, 111., today despite the fact he was "lynched” last night. The hanging—in effigy—took place at a downtown corner on Michigan ave nue. A score of Spanish-American war veterans left the scare crow dangling from a lamp post where it attracted a jeering crowd until policemen cut it down twenty minutes later. Attached to the figure was a card with the le gend: "Sic Semper Big Billibus. “Veterans foreign wars.” As the policemen removed the effigy several automooiies bearing the "lynch ing party” rolled away, the veterans singing. "We’ll Hang Bill Thompson to a Sour Apple Tree.” The National Security league. of which Thompson formerly was a mem ber today was pushing its demand that he be indicted on grounds of "palpable omission of duty and malfeasance in office.” “In our opinion he is a disloyal citi zen,” declares a resolution adopted by the league. “In his words and actions since the outbreak of the war, he has adhered to the enemies of his country, giving them aid and comfort.” Posters praising Thompson, put up in the Fort Deaborn hotel by delegates of the people’s council for democracy and terms of peace, were removed by orders of federal secret service agents ‘Gee! This Looks Good,’ Says Farmer Recruit Arriving at the Camp CAMP GORDON, Ga., Sept. s.—“ Gee! this looks good,” exclaimed Henry D. Peavy, a young DeKalb county farmer, who was the first national army recruit to be accepted at Camp Gordon Wed nesday morning. Peavy came with eight other DeKalb county men, all of whom rode to the cantonment tn a big touring car. J. C. Johnson and Dr. W. J. Houston, of the DeKalb board, were In the ma chine with the boys. Peavy enoys the distinction of being the first man failed in DeKalb, the first examined, the first accepted and the first to be registered at the canton ment. Peavy is the son of Mr. and Mrs. John Peavy, of Stone Mountain, and has recently been employed on building work at Camp Gordon. The other De- Kaig county selectmen who came with Peavy were Guy W. Queen, H. E, Chris tian, J. M. McClelland, Will Haushalter, Russell A. Kline, E. R. Livesy, Sam E. Swann and N. A. Davis. The DeKalb delegation arrived at the reservation at exactly five minutes paet 10 o’clock. No other selected men had put in their appearance up to that hour. Shipbuilding Increase Offsets Loss by U-Boat LONDON, Sept. 4.—Commenting on the rapid increase in shipbuilding to offset losses from the submarine cam paign, the Cardiff correspondent of the Exchange Telegraph company says that two supplements published by Lloyd's shipping register show that between June 8 and July 17 more than 100 steam ers, of which 63 are British, were add ed to the register. Most of these ves sels are of large tonnage. The rate of construction is understood to be in creasing rapidly. TRACE DISEASE TO CONSTIPATION One of the points on which different schools of medicine practically agree Is, that abetut 96 per cent of all human dis ease is directly traceable to In testinal putrefaction of stomach waste due to inactivity of the bowels* or constipation. Ths eliminative process Is an «Msn tdal factor in digestion and on its proper functioning depends the welfare of the entire system. Constipation is a condition that should never be neglected. As soon as the bowels evidence the slirhteet disposition to slow up, a mild laxative should be taken. The combination of simple laxa tive heriie with pepsin, known as Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin and sold in drug stores for fifty cents a bottle, is highly recommended as a corrective, acting gently, 1* an easy, natural way, without griping or other pain or discom fort.

If you are not strong or well you owe it to yourself to makt the following test: See how long you can work or bow far you can walk without becoming tired. Next take two five grain tablets of ordinary nuxatod iron three times per day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength Again and see for your self how much you have gained' There is nothing like good old iron to put color in your cheeks and sound, healthy flesh on your bones. But you must take iron in a form that can t>v easily absorbed and assimilated like nut ated iron if you want it to do you any good, otherwise It may prove worse than useless.
