SENATDfI SMITH GAILS ON GEOHGUNS TO 801 BONOS Ail Especial Appeal Is Made to Farmers to Invest Profits RT RA-uPM SMITH. WASHINGTON. Oct. 23.—Anticipating Secretary McAdoo’s visit to Atlatna to morrow, Senator Hoke Smith today is sued a statement calling upon all Geor gians to subscribe to the Liberty loan that Secretary McAdoo is boosting. The senator makes an especial appeal to tne farmers to invest his profits from cot ton in government bonds. He also calls upon the mechanics to put their savings into the loan and predicts confidently that atfer the war Liberty bonds will sell at a premium. Senator Smith's statement follows; Tomorrow Secretary McAdoo will be tiie guest of Atlanta. He is a Georgian by otrth. He has to his credit a record as secretary of the treasury never surpassed, if equalled, by a predecessor. While the cause which he presents , appeals to our patriotism it also of fers a splendid investment. Since we declared war with Ger many every man and woman worth counting has desired a chance to help our country win. The money derived from the sale of the Liberty bonds will be used to support the boys who are in active service and to build flying ma chines. submarine destroyers and transpotration vessels. Flying ma chines and submarine destroyers will hasten victory. If we had all of these that could be used we would win the war in ninety days. We are giving our boys, we could better afford to give our dollars. But the government is not asking us to give dollars it is only asking to borrow them. Our government will pay 4 per cent annually for the use of the money until the principal is paid back. I appeal to every Georgian to buy bonds with any surplus money he or she has in quantities large or small. A SPLENDID SAVING. It is the best saving ever offered to the average man. The man in ac tive business will find his bond equivalent to just that much cash on hand, paying interest while he keeps it. The mechanic who has been making high wages should save part and put it in bonds. The farmer who is receiving near ly 30 cents for his cotton should take part of it and put it in bonds. If he owns his farm it is a splendid protection against hard times. If he wishes to buy a farm it Is the best place to save his money until he is ready to make the purchase. If he wishes to buy a home, buying a bond is the way to make a start. These bonds will sell for more than par when the war is over, and I do not believe there will be a time when a man who has them could not get 100 cents on the dollar for them if he desired to sell. Tomorrow has been set apart by the president as the day for sub scriptions. It is the patriotic duty and should be the pleasure of every one to help. May the sun not go down until ev ery man and wi>jnan in Georgia who can do so has subscribed to the Lib erty loan. ATLANTA IS FORTUNATE. • Atlanta should count herself doubly lucky in that the secretary of the treasury will be the guest of the city on the day set aside by the president as “Liberty day.’’ Secre tary McAdoo may be depended upon to fulfil the expectations of the At lanta people and to give to the Lib erty Ix>an campaign a renewed im petus that will reflect credit upon the Gate City. “Liberty day’’ will be celebrated throughout the nation as a holiday. Practically every governor has pro claimed either a whole or half holi day PETROGRAD REPORTS ON GREAT SEA FIGHT Six German Destroyers Sunk by Russians, Ten Other Ships Disabled PETROGRAD, Monday. Oct. 22.—Two German dreadnaughts, one cruiser, twelve torpedo boats and one transport were put out of action by the Russians in the fighting around the islands in the Gulf of Riga last week, but their ulti mate fat? is unknown, says an official statement issued last night by the Rus sian admiralty. It has been established that at least six German torpedo boats were sunk in the fighting. The Rus sians lost the battleship Slava and a large torpedo boat. The adimralty staff in its review of the fighting says that the Russian units fought excellently against the supe riority of the Germans. The statement reads: During October 21 important en emy naval forces, together with transports, were sighted by our outposts in the Gulf of Riga. In Moon Sound the ehemy seems to be clearing the water of obstructions which we laid down. There was no naval action during the day, but enemy submarines were discovered in the Gulf of Finland. As the naval operations in the Baltic isles have now ended, it is possible to review them. The task of our fleet in this region was, with the organized position of Moon Sound as a base, to prevent enemy attempts to seize the Gulf of* Riga and Moon Sound. So long as (he German fleet only employed in such an operation elements of minor importance as In 1915. namely, two dreadnaughts. our naval forces could cope with them. In 1915, although our position in Moon Sound was organized incom pletely, we repulsed successfully all attacks, and the enemy during three days’ possession of the Gulf of Riga, suffered losses so grave that he was obliged to depart. A similar attempt in 1916 with unim portant forces failed completely. In the recent operations the en emy employed the major part of his fleet, and his * overwhelming superiority enabled him to carry out debarkation rapidly and suc cessfully. Our fleet only was able to do its best to hinder these ef forts and to Inflict maximum losses.

GEM PRISONERS IT FOBT MPHERSON MAKE THEiR ESCAPE Ten Members of Crews of Prince Eitel Frederick and Appam Dig Their Way Out i of the Internment Camp Secret service agents Wednesday aft ! ernoon were working on the theory that • the ten German prisoners, members of 1 interned German ships crews, who es- • caped from the war prison barracks at j For: McPherson some time Tuesday night through a tunnel they had dug. . arc secreted in the home of friends in Atlanta. .lust what steps wil be taken to a.s --i certain whether this is true and just what houses are under suspicions could not. of course, be divulged. The department o f justice operatives are confident, however, that persons "on the outside” are aiding in the conceal ment of the men The men who escaped were two of ficers and eight seamen who were among the men brought to Fort McPherson two weeks ago from the war prison barracks at Fort Oglethorpe. They are members of the crews of the Prince Eitel Friedrich and the Appam, two members of whose crews escaped from Fort Oglethorpe several months ago. DISCOVERED AFTER DAYLIGHT. The escape was discovered shortly after daylight Wedensday when reveille was sounded. Investigation developed j the fact that a tunnel had been started i under one of the barrack houses and dug I for a hundred feet or more to an open i ing outside the camp. Evidently the prisoners had been : working on the tunnel ever since their arrival, digging at night and scattering the earth along sidewalks that are being constructed. Bloodhounds trailed the men in a southwesterly direction from the fort. Nearly a mile from the camp they took to a stream with a view, it Is believed, of throwing dogs off their trail. At the edge of the branch the refgu gees had discarded their socks. Near the place where the socks were found the searchers discovered two pairs of overalls, an old overcoat, a pair of corduroy trousers and other articles of clothing, all of which are said to have been discarded by the escaped prisoners. Several squads of soldiers are scour ing the country near the fort with or ders to get the fleeing men “dead or alive.” Wires have been sent to every part of the country asking officers to be on the lookout for the men. whose descrip tions were detailed in the telegrams. That the war prison barracks have been in need of more guards for some time has been generally known. Colonel Van Orsdale having asked the recruit ing officer to enlist sixteen men for that duty.

Liberty Bonds in Berlin Above Par, Is Forecast NEW YORK. Oct. 24. —Liberty loan bonds will sell above par in Berlin after the war, Henry Clews. Wall strete. finan cier. predicted today. "The German bankers know a good investment and they will be glad to trade with us,’’ he declared. series of attacks, using all the naval resources in our possession. As a result of these operations the enemy lost through mines, sub marine attacks and artillery fire two dreadnaughts, one cruiser, twelve iorpndo boats, one transjx •and numerous mine sweepers. < of which were put out of action. TJ'-.elr ultimate fate is unknown. Wo have established the actual loss of only six enemy torpedo boats, two of which were of the small type and were sunk by gunfire from our po sition on Moon island. The other torpedo boats were sunk in com bats or blown up by mines. The wreck of the torpedo boat T-69 is visible on a sand bank in Kassar Bay. Further, our coast batteries sank four enemy torpedo boats. Our losses are ship of the line Slava and a large torpedo boat de stroyer of the Grom type. The ef ficiency of our other ships has been maintained completely. German torpedo boats 'of the T-69 class were built in 1891, displaced 145 tons and had a complement of sixteen men. They arc 154 feet in length. The Russian battleship Slava, whose loss has been reported previously, dis placed 13,516 tons. She had a comple ment of 825 men and was 370 feet in length. The Rusisan destroyers of the Grom type were built in 1914 and dis placed 1,110 tons. They had a comple ment of 93 men and • length of 321 feet. KAISER TO BE MADE IW SUBSCRIBER TO THE LIBERTY LOAN Hundreds of Millions of Dollars in Genian Cash and Billion in War Material Will Be Seized in United States WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.—The kaiser will be a forsed subscriber to some fu ture Liberty loan. Seizure of hundreds or millions In uerman-owned cash and an estimated billion of war material begins this week with the assumption of office by A. Mitchell Palmer, custodian of alien prop erty. H;s duties call for taking over all German property, whether owned by the German government or by private citi zens. The cash he seizes he will invest in the Liberty loan or other good bonds and the war material will be given to United States troops to shoot back at the kaiser. Mr. Palmer opened offices and filed his $150,000 bond today. This is the largest bond of any officer of the government except the secretary of the treasury, which it equals. Preliminary work and conferences will engage him until the end of the week. He operates under the trading with the enemy act. ESTIMATE OF SUM IS HIGH. “1 should dislike to say the amount of property which Germany or German agents own in this country,” ,he said, "because as I air. still unable to itemize it, the estimated sum would seem ab surdly high. "I am authorized to seize all German property whether public or private. There is one exception—property owned by unnaturalized residents of this coun try. "Where industries are owned by Ger mans. I am to seize them and operate them. Dividends I must and will invest in United States bonds—how do you think the kaiser will like subscribing to our Liberty loans? "After the war, the United States will pay for all German private property it takes. German government property, of course, is the spoils of war. But most of its stores the German government owned through business house agents.” GERMANS READY TO PAY. Mr. Palmer found waiting for him many letters from German business firms offering to turn over large sums of money at once. Some of this may even arrive in time for subscription in the present Liberty loan. Cotton, shells, steel, brass, copper, nickel and explosive chemicals, worth in the aggregate more than a billion, besides hundreds of millions of German cash or equivalents will come under Mr. Palmers control. The war materials will relieve shortages felt by the coun tries warring against the kaiser. Secret service men who have been at work some time report that before this country and Germany were at war pri vate firms representing the kaiser bought vast stores of supplies. They were unable to get much of this to Germany because,, of the British block ade. The idea was to tie it up so the allies could not get at it. As many such transactions were car ried on openly with the approval of the United States —being legitimate before the war began—various departments have accurate lines on just what to find. Purchases by banks, steamship com panies and other concerns which the government considers really agents of the kaiser have been watched since the war began. Electric Signs Go Out In Response to Plea For Fuel Conservation BOSTON. Oct. 24.—One by one the electric signs that brighten the building tops here are winking out as a result of the plea of James J. Storrow, state fuel administrator, that electricity be saved to conserve the ever-diminishing coal supply. It is predicted that unless conditions change soon the sight of an electric sign here will be rare. URIC ACID An Enemy in Ambush (BY DR. M. C. LUCAS.) / it was not until the discovery by Sir Arthur Garrod, in 1848. that the blood of gouty patients contained uric acid in an excessively large amount, that much attention was paid to this sub ject. Later scientific men learned that in gout (also true in rheumatism.) the kidneys do not work properly to throw off the uric acid poison; consequently uric acid crystals are deposited in and about the joints where an inflammation is swt up in the nearby tissues. When for any reason the circulation is slug gish, as in the joints of the toes, crys tals formed from uric acid are de posited there, and one suffers from gout; or. when deposited in the tissues, one suffers from muscular rheumatism or articular rheumatism. My only med icine to counteract the uric acid and to throw it out of the system is tab lets of Anuric (double strength', three times a day. The pain in the back, lumbago, pain in the neck, creaky joints, stiffness in muscles, have ail been proven to be caused by uric acid poison in the blood and tissues. The kidneys soon become diseased, then there often follows dis ease in the muscles of the heart. Kidney disease carries away a large percentage of our people. What is to be done? What can the ordinary person do to properly balance bodily health? The answer is easy. ’Eat less meat, eat coarse, plain food, with plenty of vege tables. drink plenty of water between meals, and take an uric acid solvent before meals for awhile, such as Anuric (double strength), obtained at almost any drug store. It was first discovered by Dr. Pierce, of the Surgical Institute in Buffalo, N. Y. Most every one trou bled with uric acid finds that Anuric dissolves the uric acid as hot water will dissolve sugar.

They produce none at all.” These figures were cited today by Judge Charles Lathrop Pack, of the na tional emergency food garden commis sion, to back up his plea that America’s army of home gardeners begin now to prepare the soil for next spring's crop. "That i'~ sls 200,06° worth of food consumed b’ the land f orces of the bel ligerent* every twenty-four hours ’’said Judge Pack. “It does not include the cost of feeding the several million sea fighters "Thes • 38,100,0v‘. men and their brothers uh the sea have been taken from food producing and distributing labors principally.

Oct. 24.—When lead ers of the District of Columbia Liberty Loan campaign went to call on President Wilson today, presumably to get his sub scription to the loan, they learned he had subscribed for $15,000 worth of bonds through a local bank, paying 90 per cent, or $13,500 immediately, ajnd agreeing to pay the balance before November 14. The president bought SIO,OOO worth of the first issue direct from the treas ury. $165,380,000 For Loan CLEVELAND, Oct. 23,-—The estimate of subscriptions to the Liberty loan In the fourth federal reserve district up to Monday morning was $165,380,000. $450 REWARD On the 25th day of January, 1917, Wesley Brown shot and killed David Bryant, a young white man, near Bow man, G'l.
