Wonderful Invention Sent tnt 30
Days’ Trial Before You Fay.
Simply send me your name and I will send
you my new copyrighted rupture book and
measurement blank. When you return the
blank I will send you my new invention for
rupture. When it arrives put it on and wear
it. Put it to every test you can think of.
The harder the test the better you will like

with the old style cruel spring trusses or
belts with leg straps of torture. Your own
good common sense and your own doctor will
tell you it is the only way in which you can
ever expect a cure. After wearing it 30 days,
if it is not entirely satisfactory in every
way—if it is not easy and comfortable—if
you cannot actually see your rupture getting
better, and if not convinced that a cure is
merely a question of time —just return it and
you are out nothing. Any rupture appliance
that is sent on 30 days’ trial before you pay
is worth giving a trial. Why not tell your

through th^*”corridors of the school
building, while nearly 1,000 other
small boys and girls marched out
to fresh air and safety.
In less than. three minutes after
Vivian had sounded her first chord
the last pupil had left the school —•
and that was Vivian.
The fire itself didn’t amount to
much, aside from a possibility that
its start wasn’t accidental. Where
the real danger lay was in the panic
that Vivian White and her familiar
march averted, for there hadn't been
a single practice drill this term and
many of the younger children had
never been through one.
But they did know Vivian and
they did know her tune, and they
did keep coolly stepping. It was
only a few minutes past 2 o’clock
when Mss Margaret Norton, teach
ing in a classroom on the third floor,
noticed smoke curling through a
flue.
She sent a pig-tailed messenger
post haste to Mrs. Jeannette P. Rob
inson, the principal, and straight
away bells were clanging in every
story.
Heroine Vivian, who is thirteen,
was on the third floor herself, but
in less time than it would take the
fastest typesetter to tell about it she
was at her piano.
In even less time smoke had
poured up out of the basement,
where a storeroom stocked chiefly
with drawing paper was on fire.
Louder than ever before played
Miss Vivian. Faster than ever be
fore flew her fingers, and in time
with the dutiful thumping of the
“JJator March” the school building
was emptied.
Bramlett, Charged With
Killing Mother-in-Law,
Found Guilty of Murder
G. ENVILLE, S. C.—A verdict
of guilty, carrying the death sen
tence, h s been returned by a ses
sions court jury in the case of Hugh
T. Bramlett, contractor, who was
tried for the murder of his mother
in-law. Mrs. L. C. McHugh. Notice of
a motion for a new trial was entered
by counsel immediately afther the
pronouncement of the verdict. Unless
a new trial is granted either by a
circuit judge or as a result of an
appeal to the supreme court, Bram
lett will be sentenced to death by
electrocution at the state peniten
iary.
The jury deliberated only about
an houi’ after a trial lasting eight
days, the longest murder trial on
record in the county, and perhaps
in the state. Scores of witnesses
were examined and the defense
staked all on the plea that Bram
lett was insane when he shot his
mother-in-law and sister-in-law at
their home in Greenville on the
night of June 18, last.
Eramlett drove his sedan auto
mobile to Mrs. McHugh’s home,
stopped the car, bounded up the
steps and fired three shots at Mrs.
McHugh and daughter, Peola. As he
started back down the steps, he
turned and fired another bullet into
the prostrate form of his mother
in-law.
A boarder sitting on the porch
yas not struck. Bramlett, testifying
in his own defense, said he remem
bered nothing of what happened at
the McHugh home. He insisted he
was justified in killing Mrs. Mc-
Hugh “to release wife and children
from a bondage of hatred.”
Bramlett is the fifth person to
be convicted of first degree murder
at the present term of the court,
a record unparalelled .in this
state.
Senate Votes to
Furnish Equipment
For U. C. V. Reunion
BY THEODORS TILLER
WASHINGTON, D. C„ Sept. 13.
oßth Georgia senators Friday urged
Chairman Kahn, of the house mili
tary committee, to speed action on
the senate resolution authorizing the
war department to lend tents, cots,
blankets and cooking utensils for the
Confederate Veterans’ reunion in At
lanta in October. 'Although preced
ents were against such broad author
■ ity, the senate voted unanimously
Friday afternoon to adqpt the resolu
tion as introduced by Senator Wil
liam J. Harris.
Earlier in the afternoon Senator
: Hoke Smith and Senator Harris ap
peared before the senate military
committee and obtained a unanimous
favorable report. Senator Haris told
the senate it was probably the last
request the Confederate veterans
would make and without objection
the army authorities were authorized
to supply such equipment as the vet
erans may need for their reunion.
Equipment damaged will be account
ed for by the reunion fund.

Trrr Atlanta semi-weekly journal, Atlanta, ga. Tuesday, seftexMber io, ioio
BY JIM MARSHALL
ON THE FIRE LINES, NORTH
ERN IDAHO.—Through scores of
smoke-filled gulches, over fire-swept
hilltops and in the midst of blazing
forest infernos thousands of grimy, ;
red-eyed men had for weeks been
fighting the twin demons of fire and
wind.
Sometimes the fighters won a skir
mish, but the main battle was de
termined largely by fire and wind.
"I’ll fight anything,” said a United
States forester to me, as we stood,
gasping and panting on top of a
ridge near Wallace, Idaho, up which
flames were advancing, “but when
they put me up in direct competition
with the Lord Almighty, well—l ap
preciate the compliment, but I’ll have
to admit the Lord has me faded.”
The ration truck, bumping up the
canyons in the early morning, had
dumped me off at the fire camp. I
had come there to do my bit in the
battle to curb the ruddy demon.
Just over the hill the whole world
was ablaze.
Twelve men were lined up, waiting
to go out —by request.
“Wobblies,” explained the forester.
‘‘They’re no good,” he said. I
haven’t caught ’em setting any fires,
but they’re certainly in no hurry to
put ’em out. They argue politics on
the job, too.”
We climbed straight up the rocky
hillside through an old "barn” for
1,500 feet. Some of us lugged damp
water bags, others hauled mattocks,
saws and axes.
Wind Fans Fire to Fury
Overhead a blood-red sun shone
dimly. Shrouding everything was a
ghostlike mist. Here and there an
gry flames stabbed through the
smoke. The ground was inches deep
in powdery ashes. Dimly loomed
the blackened spires of ddad trees,
still smoking.
No living thing, save the black
ened forms of the firefighters, moved
in that redhot waste. The inhuman
silence was broken only .by the can
non-like crashes of dead trees fell
ing and the hoarse voices calling for
water.
Then—a little dust devil whirled
through the ashes; a breath of the
coming wind. Immediately from
down in the gulch came a sullen
crackling, which turned swiftly into
an ominous roar as the flames swept
up the gulch.
Near the mouth of the’ gulch our
ew was working desperately to stop
J* ames - Over on the other side
Ox the draw another crew worked.
Me were trying to effect a junc
tion of our lines at the stream.
Our crew had nearly made connec
tion with the others when the breeze
came.
Fighters Forced to Retreat
In a minute—no more—the flames
nad thrown burning brands over our
heads, up the gulch. A dozen “spot
tires” burned behind us. A bridge
nearby was blazing.
We turned on a course parallel
to our defense line and, beaten,
climbed the ridge once more. Trees
tell all around us with crashing
roars. Our faces were scorched In
the dancing heat waves. Lips crack
ed and hearts pounded in the stifling
air. b
‘‘Look out,” yelled somebody.
I stopped dead.
With a bang like a 42-centimeter
gun a great blazing pine dropped
with a crash not five feet in front
of me. Showers and sparks and
8188 MILL CLOSED
AFTER TWO NEGRO
WOMENARE SHOT
MACON, Ga„ Sept. 12. —Following
a night of disorders in which many
shots were fired, two negro women
employed at Mill No. 2 of the Bibb
Manufacturing company, whose em
ployes have been on strike for three
weeks, were shot this morning. Jen
nie Lee Gilmore, fifteen years old,
was seriously wounded, and Della
Allen, an aged woman, was wounded
in the arm and shoulder.
I’orty non-union workers on one of
the company’s trucks were on the
way to the mill when a short dis
tance from the plant, a mils step
ped in front of the truck and ordered
the driver to stop. He had some
thing wrapped in a handkerchief.
Payne Allen, employed in the of
fice of the company, was driving. He
increased the speed and as the
vehicle swept by twelve or fifteen
shots were fired by persons in the
group of strikers. T z he women were
the only persons hurt.
Immediately afterward, it was an
nounced that the mill -would be
closed for the day.
The police say they have the name
of the man who tried to stop the
truck and he will be arrested in a
short time.
Rioting was reslmed in the mill
district last night.
After strikers and their sympa
thizers had whipped Mrs. Alice
Wheeler and her daughter, they at
tacked the home of Mrs. W. T.
Crosby, wife of a foreman in the
mill. Mrs. Crosby and five daugh
ters are employed in the mill.
Mrs. Crosby opened fire on a crowd
of 500 who had congregated in her
yard and in the street in front of
her home and were hurling stones
at the place. ‘‘l shot six times at
them and they scattered.” said Mrs
Crosby. The police made three ar
rests in connection with the dis
turbance. The court decided Mrs
Crosby was justified in shooting.
Indian Ordanined Preacher
Black Hawk, a full-blooded In
dian, was ordained *nto the ministry
of the Church of Christ recently at
Lancaster, Pa., probably the first or
dination of its kind in Lancaster
county. The ceremony was perform
ed by the Rev. W. A. Sherwood, pas
tor of the chttrch, assisted by Red
Fox, another Indian, also an ordain
ed minister, and the elders of that
church. Black Hawk is a member of
the Blackfoot tribe and a graduate
of Carlisle Indian school. With Red
Fox, he will take as his work the
establishment of a l ' home for Indian
boys and girls at the Yakima reserva
tion, not far from the new National
park at Yakima, Wash.

“Nice lot of firefighters, you are,”
said the chaffing voice of a water
boy. “Have a drink.”
I drank $2,000,000 worth. It was
worth all that.
“Let’s go,” said the chief.
The grimy gang staggered and
panted toward the head of the gulch.
Across the flames the other crew
performed the same evolution.
On a tree before us hung a dry
water bag and a tattered notice,
crudely printed. It said:

cently to transport a coffin in which

Dig In On New Defense Line
On the ridge above the canyon we
dug in on another line of defense,
working desperately to clear a nar
row, fireproof path.
Waves of heat-drenched smoke
swept over us, searing our faces,
choking us.
Every minute blazing trees crash
ed across the defenses. Men hurried
to these danger spots and hurled
the attack back across the defenses.
Time and again the flames came on.
Parched and nearly blind with smoke
the defenders fought them back.
Suddenly the fire died down. An
unnatural silence took the place oT
the crackling, rushing roar. Dull
booms down in the “burn” punctuat
ed the stillness.
Th e chief dropped his mattock.
“Lord took pity on us and switch
ed the wind,” he gasped hoarsely.
The fire had lost a skirmish.
The aerial hearse rose from the
ground while heads were bared, and
made several circles of the city be
fore it pointed to the mainland an 1
winged its way across the meadows
At the cemetery were gathered rel
atives of the child, who had gone by
automobiles. After a. simple buriai
service, the party returned home, end
ing what perhaps was the first trans
portation of a body io the grave by
airplane.
It was said that the funeral was
intended to show to the undertakers’
convention here that the swift air
plane was available for the moving
of bodies.
It is reported that one of the air
plane factories has undei’ considera
tion the designing of an aerial hearse.
