In telling recently of the »«r -j Benefits he has received from the use of Tanlac. Captain Burt said: - "For the past fifteen years I have had »,<- to take a trip to Hot Springs every suin mer on account of stomach troubles. They never cost less than five hundred —— dollars a trip, but I didn’t go this year, because Tanlac set me right, and I hope I won’t have to go there again. My stomach was in such a bad fix all these years that nothing agreed with me and my food did not g.ve ine nourishment. 1 was badly constipated and 1 ached with rheumatism till my life was made mis erable. My strength and energy was at k.. a low point and 1 felt tired and worn k j out all the time. I got only temporary iX.i*. relief from my trips to Hot Springs, and »»V nothing I took did me any good. "i heard so much about Tanlac that 1 aL,. decided to trv it. and in a short while after starting on it 1 felt It was just what I needed. The rheumatism is al most gone and my constipation greatly relieved, my appetite is fine and my ford seems to digest and give me strength, my improvement in every way is entirely satisfactory so far and I • confidently believe I will soon be as well Bt?

Steamer Reaches French Port Showing Shell Holes BERLIN. March 12.—(Via London. Cambrai has been bombarded by long range British guns, according to today's army headquarters report. Several shots from British artillery of the heaviest caliber fell in the town, the statement reports. U. S. Steamer Reaches Port Full of Holes A FRENCH PORT, Sunday. March 10. An American steamship, formerly a Ger man vessel, arrived here today with its bridge smashed and shell hole through a smokestack as a result of an encounter with a submarine. The steamship defendea itself with its guns on being attacked by tne sub marine. A storm was encountered, during which the cargo shifted. The vessel made port with the greatest difficulty. 17 Americans Die; and 22 Wounded in France WASHINGTON.

U. S. Transport Battles And Sinks Submarine AN ATLANTIC lORT, March 12. The story of a battle between an Amer ican transport bound for Europe and a German submarine was told here by members of the crew, who asserted that the submersible's signal "surrender; we are over-hauling you,” was answered by a direct hit from the American guns. The German either sank or dived and was seen no more. The vessel was one upon which it was charged at a hearing here last week that Edward Otis, twenty-three, a native cf Riga. Russia, had tampered with the steering device to prevent the trans port zig-zagging. Otis, who was order ed held under (25,000 bond on a charge of espionage, was a quartermaster on the vessel. It also was said Otis had falsely reported a reading of the trans port's log and had h listed her flag up side down. Regarding the fight with the lurking submarine the following story was told: The transport made the trip across the Atlantic without special incident until she neared the hostile zone. Then her engine went wrong and she was compelled to drop behind the convoy, believing the trouble could be corrected in a short time. But this was not the I case, and when the repairs were made the lookout sighted a submarine dead astern less than a mile away. The transport’s stern gun was opened up at the enemy craft. At this time the undersea boat showed fight and, | remaining on top of the water, began to drop shrapnel shells on the transport. dosing • her shrapnel guns z the sub j marine crew let loose a torpedo, but the i transport maneuvered in time to let ! it pass, startlingly close to her stern. Let ting loose again with shrapnel the Ger , man crew worked effectively, several shots finding their mark. The crew of the transport were having trouble with the range. To add to the transport’s predicament the chief gunner had his clothing nearly stripped from his body fn a hail of small shell. He was wound ed in the leg. A seventeen-year-old gunner took the place of the wounded chief gunner and proved himself equal to the occasion. In the meanwhile the enemy craft had pulled up to within 900 yards and sent up the signal: "Surrender; we are over hauling you.” The gun crew on the transport answered with their first hit. Again came the signal: "Surrender;' we are overhauling you!” from less than 800 yards, but the transport replied with another hit, and the gunners swore they would die fighting rather than give a ‘ satisfactory answer to the challenge. I The shot that closed hostilities was a direct hit, which landed fairly on the periscope deck of the submarine, and with its bursting the undersea craft was seen to dive or sink. The transport did i not linger to investigate the fate of the i enemy. Prison Commissioner Raifiey Says Weevil Is Not Exterminated Yet State Prison Commissioner E. 1,. Rainey, of Dawson, said that the fact has been definitely established in Ter rell county that the cotton boll weevil was hot killed in south Georgia by the extremely cold weather during the win ter months. J. A. Lang, one of the large farm ers of that county. Mr. Rainey says, made examination of some old bolls •n an unprotected spot in one of his fields immediately after the snowfall, in February, and found, upon breaking them open they were infested with live weevils. Subsequently another inspec tion has been made and live weevils have been found. Terrell, however, isn’t depending, as it did in past years, on the cotton crop. Commissioner Raindy cites the fact that last week there w-re shipp'd from Daw son six more cars of Georgia-raised hogs, completing » total shipment from that place this season of sixty-two cars, on which the farmers have netted $125.- 00h. This is in addition to the large sales of peanuts, the value of that crop from last year running one million dol lars. and the velvet bean crop.

CASTORIA For Infants and Children In Use For Over 30 Years Al'vavs bears THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKI.V JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA. FRIDAY, MARCH IS, I9IS. COOPER DENIES CHBREES M(DE Si CHICA6O■ Will Be Given Hearing by Gov ernor on Extradition on March 19 L. J. Cooper, president of the First National bank, of Waycross, former member of the house of representatives from Ware county, and one of the most prominent men in south Georgia, tele graphed a statement to The Journal late Monday afternoon in reply to the charges of Simon Hamburg, the Chica go man who has sued out two criminal warrants for him. in that city, and ob tained a requisition for Mr. Cooper by the governor of Illinois on the gover nor of Georgia. Governor Dorsey will give Mr. Cooper a hearing on the requisition at 10 o'clock next Tuesday morning, March 19, and Mr. Cooper will be here with several prominent lawyers to resist ex tradition. It is understood that Ham burg will also come here from Chicago and bring his lawyer. An arresting of ficer has been in Atlanta with the requi sition since last Saturday. The controversy between Mr. Cooper and Hamburg grows out of a real es tate transaction. Mr. Cooper bought certain Chicago real estate from Simon and Emma Hamburg and paid for the same with bonds secured by south Georgia lands. The Hamburgs claim, that the bonds were worthless, and swore out warrants cha ging fraud and “confidence game.” Mr. Cooper charges, in substance, that the Hamburgs tried to swindle him and he defeated their game by withholding the titles to the lands from record. His statement tele graphed to The Journal is as follows: "Answering your telegram in regard to requisition for myself from Chicago, the hearing of which has been set by the governor on the 19th instant, I had hoped that no statement by me would be necessary until the matter was passed on by his excellency, but since the Chicago party has seen fit to try the matter in advance, I will make this brief statement. “In August, 1917, I traded one Ham burg, of Chicago, certain farm bonds and some Clinch and Echols lands for equities in Chicago apartments, repre sented to me by Hamburg and his agents to be worth far in excess of their real value. This misrepresenta tion as to the value of the Chicago property developed on my attempt to dispose of it. "To protect myself from a gigantic swindle, I refused to place on record my titles to the Clinch and Echols county lands, and the lands underlying the bonds, until the said Hamburg had made good the misrepresented value of the Chicago property, and when he failed to do this I proposed in writing to call off the entire trade, leaving no one hurt and restoring the status quo ante. "To all of these propositions Ham burg said ‘no,’ and through his attor neys began a campaign of threats that unles» I put up the necessary money or made good the titles to the property, which he acquired through fraud and misrepresentation, he would proceed with such prosecutions as he saw fit. Hamburg has ample recourse in the civil courts if he has been damaged.” THE TEXAS WONDER Cures kidney and bladder troubles, diabetes, weak and lame back, rheumatism, and dissolves gravel in nvn and women.

Paid City sl, 100 in Fines, He Told Recorder, and Begged for Leniency -After an absence of some time, Joe [ Schmidt, better known as “out-again- j in-again Schmidt.” made his appearance ! in police court Monday afternoon charged with being drunk and soliciting alms on the streets. Schmidt entered a plea of guilty to the drunk charge, but stated he did not know anything about his attempt to solicit funds. He asked the leniency of the court, stating that during his long career in Atlanta he had paid the city over (1,100 in fines. He told the recorder that he had two dollars in his pockets with which to pay his flne, and that if the recorder would let him off with that, he would immediately leave Atlanta and go to his brother in Chattanooga. Recorder Johnson lined him sls and cost, or thirty days. The recorder told him that if he would get a ticket from his brother in Chattanooga, he would pardon him. Schmidt is now trying to secure the necessary transportation to Chattanooga. New York Assembly * Refers Dry Measure To Vote of People ALBANY, N.

Call Completes Entire Number of First Quota and Few From Second—s,92s Geor gians Included - The war department on Tuesday is sued a special call fqr 95,000 men to fill up gaps in the various cantonments caused by death, discharge of alien en emies and other circumstances, and Georgia’s share of this special call is approximately 925 men, who will en train for Camp Gordon on March 29. Simultaneously with this special call, the war department called on southern states to furnish the remaining negroes due on the first increment, and this will take 5,000 negroes from Georgia, of whom 4,000 will go to Camp Gordon and 1,000 will go to Camp Funston, at Fort Riley, Kan., the negroes beginning en trainment on March 22 and continuing for a five-day period. Notice of i these calls was received Tuesday morning by Major Joel B. Mal let, officer in charge of the selective service law in Georgia, and preparations were immediately commenced in his of fice to notify the local boards concern ing all details of the movement. Georgia has practically completed her quota of white men due in the first in crement, so that most of the 925 white men inducted in the special call will be credited on her quota for the second in crement. But as to the negroes, the call simply completes the number Geor gia is still due in the first increment, the negroes having been held back pend ing completion of arrangements tor their training. Yarnis Not Disturbed In selecting the 925 white men for the special call and the 5,000 negroes to complete Georgia’s first colored in crement, men in class 1 who are actual ly engaged in agriculture will be de ferred to the bottom of the class. In stead of being called in their order. This is done to conserve and augment agri cultural production, and is explained tn the following telegram accompanying the notice of the two calls. "The general staff authorizes this (Crowder’s) office to announce that the situation arising from the short age of farm labor demands that the call of men actively, completely and assiduously engaged in planting or cultivating a crop, but who are in class one and within the new quota, should be deferred until the end of the new quota. President Wilson directs that in filling this emergen cy call, the local boards shall pass the order numbers of such men and defer their call for the present. It must be borne in mind that this step is taken solely for the need of the nation and not for the benefit of any individual. "Therefore, while local boards should consider it a grave duty to exercise this power, for conserving and augmenting agricultural pro duction, they should observe close ly the conduct of those deferred, and immediately upon becoming convinced that any person so de ferred is not giving his entire time and earnest attention to agricul tural duty, or that he is triflipg with the deferment thus granted him, the local board shall forthwith call him to the colors. All citizens should assist in making this expedi . ent effective and in bringing to the attention of the boards all cases meriting deferment as well as cases where deferment is being abused.” Southern States* Quotas Georgia did not send the number of negroes due on her first increment, as the war department was not ready to receive them. Now the department is ready, and Georgia and other southern states are winding up the negroes due on the first Increment. Georgia sent practically all the white men due on her first increment, so that most of the 925 white men inducted under the special call to fill up gaps will be credited on her second Increment. The telegram from General Crowder to Major Mallet announcing the special call goes on to state that "a new na tional and state quota will be announced as soon as congress acts on pending leg islation governing the apportionment of quotas.” Tuesday’s order will take men from all states except lowa and Minnesota. Following are state allotments In the south outside of Georgia: Alabama.. 2,634; Florida, 2,506: Ken tucky, 1,651; Louisiana, 3,573; Missis sippi, 2,220; North Carolina, 5,174; South Carolina, 3,433; Tennessee, 2,- 753; Virginia, 2,178. Alleged Slackers to Be Inducted Into Service Pa., March 13.—One hundred men, arrested several days ago by Pittsburg police in a round-up of ailaged selective service evaders,* were today taken to Camp Lee, Va., where they will be inducted into military service.

Former United States Senator Mason, Pioneer in Pure Food and Drugs Legislation, Father of Rural Free Delivery System Says Nuxated Iron Increased His Power and Endurance so Much, That He Feels It Ought to Be Made Known to Every Nerv ous, Run-down, Anaemic Man, ~ Woman, and Child. Opinions of Dr. Ferdinand King, New York Physician and Medical Author; Dr. James Francis Sullivan, formerly ' Physician of Bellevue Hospital (Out door Dept.) New York and the West- Chester County Hospital; Former Health Commissioner Wm. R. Kerr, of BBble , r ' the city of Chicago and others. ? y What Senator Mason 1 ; CHICAGO, Gentlemen: _ -t <• I have often said 1 wo uid never recommend medi- cine of any kind. I believe that the doctor's place ffiSMtyafc ' '' However, after the. hardest political campaign of my ; "■ life, without a chance for a vacation, I had been start- ing to court every morning with that horrible tired feeling one cannot describe. I was advised to try Nuxated Iron. As a pioneer in the pur» food and drug legislation, I was at first loath to try any advertised '■ remedy; but after advising with my medi.-al friends. I gave it a test. The results have been so beneficial ■: UN&NfZ /gLSfe in my own case. I made up my mind to let my friends know about it, and you are at liberty to publish this ~ *?«■ ’’ statement If you so desire. I am now 65 years of age and I feel that a remedy which will build up the strength and increase the power of endurance of one S'- '- at* my age, should be known to the world. ’ Jkj Yours very truly, Senator Mason's statement in regard to Nux ated Iron was silown to several physicians who were requested to give their opinions thereon. Dr. Ferdinand King, a New York Physician and Medical Author, said: “I heartily indorse Senator Mason's statement in regard to Nux ated Iron. There- can be no vigorous iron men without iron. Pallor means anemia. Anemia means iron deficiency. The skin of anemic men and women is pale; the flesh flabby; the muscles lack tone; the brain fags, and the merc ery fails, and often they become weak, nervous, despondent and melancholy.” l»r. James Francis Sullivan, formerly Phy sician of Bellevue Hospital (Outdoor Dept.). New York, and the Westchester County Hos pital, said: "Senator Mason is to be commended on handing out this statement on Nuxated Iron tor public print. There are thousands of men and women who need a strength and blood builder, but do not know what to take. In my own opinion there is nothing better than or ganic iron—Nuxated Iron—for enriching the blood and helping to increase the strength and endurance'of men ami women who hum up too rcpidly their nervous energy in the strenuous strain of the great business competition of the day.” Former Health Commissioner Wm. R. Kerr, of the City of Chicago, says: “I have taken Nuxated iron myself and experienced its health giving and strength-building effect, and in the interest of the public welfare I feel it my duty to make known the results of its use. I am well past my threescore jears, and want to say NOTE—Nuxated Iron which was used by Senator Mason with such surprising results, and which is prescribed and recommended above by physicians is not a secret remedy, but one which i* well known to druggists everywhere. l alik« the older inorganic iron product*, it is easily assimilated and does not injure the teeth, make them black nor i.pset the stomach. The manufacturers guarantee successful and entirely satisfactory results to every purchaser or they will refund your money. It is dispensed b y all good druggists. $42,000 IN BONDS AND SECURITIES IN i OFFICE ARE STOLEN Half of the Paper Taken From Quarters of Oswald & Clark in Healey Building Is Negotiable , Burglars entering the office of Perci ■ val V.

Nuxated Iron. From my own experience with Nuxated Iron I feel it is such a valuable remedy t! at it ought to be used in every hospital and prescribed by every physician in this country. Dr. E. Sauer, a Boston physician who has stndied abroad in great European Medical in stitutions, said: "Senator Mason is right. As 1 have said a hundred times over, I regard organic iron one of the greatest of all strength build ers. ' iron is absolutely necessary to enable your bicod to change your food into living tissue. Without it, no matter how much or what you cat, your food merely passes through, you with out doing you any good. You don’t get the strength out of it, an-1 as a consequence you become weak, pale and sickly looking, jnst like a plant trying to grow in a soil deficient in iron.” Dr. Schuyler C. Jaques. Visiting Surgeon of St. Elizabeth's Hospital. New York City, said: ••I have never before given out any medical in formation or advice for publication, as I ordi nary v do not believe im it. But in the case of Nuxated Iron I feel I would be remiss in my duty not to mention it. I have taken it myself and given it to my patients with most surpris ing results. And those who wish quickly to increase their strength, power and endurance will find it a most remarkable and wonderfully effective remedy.” PROVEN SWAMP-ROOi AIDS WEAK KIDNEYS The symptoms of kidney and bladder troubles are often very distressing and leave the system in a run-down con dition.

Mason, Senator from Illinois, was elected to the 50th Congress in 1887, to the 51st Congress in 1891—defeated for the 32nd Congress 1892—Elected Senator to the’ 55th Congress 1897 to 1903.’’ Senator Mason is now Congressman from the State of Illinois. Senator Mason’s championship of Pure Food and Drugs legislation, his fight for the rural free delivery system, and his strong advocacy of all bills favoring labor and tbe rights of tne masses as against trusts and combines makes him a national figure at Washington and endeared him to the hearts of tbe working man and the great masses of people througlx-nt tbe United States. Senator Mason has tbe dis tinction of being one of tbe really big men of the nation. His strong endorsement of Nuxated Iron must convince any intelligent thinking reader that it must be a prepara tion of very great merit and one which the Senator feels is bound to be of great value to the masses of people everywhere, other wise he could not afford to lend h!a rame to it. est»ecial)y aDer bis strong aii,—aey of pure food and drugs legislatKau
