dollars and a surplus fund of one
hundred thousand dollars, has closed
a deal with the Newnun Banking com¬
pany by which it has just purchased
627 shares of stock of a total number
of 1,250 shares, paying $250 a share,

trolling interest in the bank. Applica¬
tion will be made to amend the char¬
ter of the Newnan Banking company

estate deals that has been transacted
in this section took place when W.
\v. Ramsey of Augusta sold ‘‘Old
Town” to the Carolina Loan and To¬
bacco company of Winston-Salem. It
has been impossible to learn the pur¬
chase price of this estate, but it is a
very big amount. This tract of land
embraces something like 3,700 acres. It
is one of the oldest estates in this
section that has not been previously
subdivided and sold to small farmers.
This is a very historic old plantation,
as a good many early incidents in
Georgia's iiistory happened on this old
place.
Southern Metal Trades Dealers Meet

ern Metal Trades' association was held

ready for cultivation. Mr. Crine has
already commenced work on it.
Lumber Traffic Halted
Thomasvilie. — The recent bad
weather has held back lumber ship¬
ments greatly from this section, and

congestion of freight, and no more con¬
signments of lumber will be taken up
until the roads are opened up.

and dates will be agreed on at the
meeting.
Georgia Rich In Pyrites
Atlanta.—Georgia mines produce
more barytes than all other states com¬
bined, according to a report just is¬
sued by the state geological survey.
The active mines are located at Car
tersville, Bartow county, and five oth¬
er counties have rich deposits. The
mineral is used in the manufacture
of paints and automobile tires, and
the industry has sprung from insig¬
nificance to one of prominence in a
few months, following loss of importa¬
tions from Germany. Little advertis¬
ing has been given the output and
the geological survey report places
particular emphasis on its production.
In addition to the barytes mines at
Cartersville, the only grinding and
bleaching plant in the United States
is located there. Besides the mam¬
moth deposits of yellow ocher, enor¬
mous deposits of potash slate is ad¬
vantageously situated in the same lo¬
cality for mining purposes. The nature
and occurrence of the barytes ore,
its gelogic association, geographic dis¬
tribution, uses, statistics and detailed
property descriptions are given in th'e
report of 146 pages, including nineteen
sketches, four maps, twenty-one half¬
tone illustrations and an index, which
has just been issued by the state
geological survey.

alleged to be too high. Dairymen re¬
cently increased the price of milk to

ing at 5o cents a hundred pounds.

manufacturers, which is said to be re¬

TREATY MAY SOON
COME TO VOTE
LODGE ANNOUNCES PACT WILL
BE KEPT BEFORE SENATE
UNTIL FINAL DECISION
PROBLEM FOR DEMOCRATS
Democrats May Vote For The Lodge
Reservations In Order To Ratify
Treaty And Get Out Of Way
Washington.—The nation will not
have to wait long for a show-down be¬
tween President Wilson and the Dem¬
ocratic members of the senate. The
issue is drawn. Senators are advanc¬
ing to meet it. Its settlement will be
a matter of days if Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge succeeds in his program
of keeping the treaty of peace con¬
stantly before the senate until a con¬
clusion shall have been reached.
The Republican determination to
bring the question to a conclusion was
announced on the senate floor by the
party leader, senator Lodge, who said
that for the present time had been
allotted to consideration of pressing
legislation, lie would call up the treaty
very shortly and would ask that it
remain the business of the senate until
disposed of.
In some quarters it was predicted
that under the program outlined by
Senator Lodge the treaty could be
brought to a ratification vote within
a week or ten days. The irreconcila¬
ble opponents of ratification are ex¬
pected, however, to insist that there
be no hasty action and no one could
predict with certainty how much time
they might consume in debate.
Democratic senators realize they
face a serious problem. They are
aware that upon their solution of it
hangs not only the fate of the treaty
in the current effort Cor ratification,
but the solidarity of their party in
the forthcoming presidential cam¬
paign.
WILSON MAKES UNEQUIVOCAL
STATEMENT OF HIS POSITION
ON THE ADRIATIC QUESTION
He Is Opposed To Forming Agree¬
ments Without The Participation
Of The United States
Washington.—-President Wilson’s re¬
ply to the entente premiers on the
Adriatic question lias been dispatched
by the state department.
Officials still declined to discuss
the contents of ttie communication, but
it is known that in his exchanges with
the premiers the president has made
an unequivocal statement of the Amer¬
ican government’s position, especially
witti regard to forming of agreements
without the participation of this coun¬
try.
It is understood that in his latest
note the president does not return pre¬
cisely to the arguments and decision
announced in the note of December 9,
which formed tlie basis of the Adriatic
agreement to which the United States
subscribed, as important events which
have occurred in Fiume since that time
are said to have necessitated modifi¬
cations in some respects to meet the
changed conditions.
However, the president is said to
have refused to agree to the terms
of the settlement arrived at by the
premiers and sent to Jugoslavia as
an ultimatum.
Erzberger Quits The German Cabinet
Berlin.—Mathias Erzberger, minister
of finance, voluntarily resigned from
the cabinet. Erzberger’s resignation
came as a climax to a day of sensa¬
tional testimony in his libel suit
against Dr. Varl Helfferich, former
minister of the treasury. The nature
of this testimony, it is considered, left
Erzberger no other choice than to re¬
linquish his portfolio.
Crane Is Chosen For Chinese Post
Washington—Charles R. Crane of
Chicago, business man, millionaire and
world traveler, who was appointed
minister to China by President Taft
in 1909 and recalled while on the way
to Pekin for “talking too much,” has
been selected by President Wilson for
the same post to succeed Dr. Paul
Reinsch.
Boys Confess To Theft Of $2,000,000
New York.—Joe and Irving Gluck,
brothers, and Wall street messenger
boys, have confessed they turned over
to Nicholas Arnstein, alleged head of
the five million dollar Wall street
bond robbery plot, at least two mil¬
lion three hundred thousand dollars
in stolen securities'. The boys made
the confession because they claimed
Arnstein had “held out” on them. The
alleged transfer of the securities to
Arnstein are thought to have been
made in Washington, D. C„ where he
is said to have met the boys often.
Camp Gordon Saved Untii June 30, 1920
Washington.—The conference report
on the bill authorizing expenditure of
approximately six million dollars at
two score army camps and fields was
adopted in the house without opposi¬
tion and now goes to the president.
The measure directs that Camps Gor¬
don, Ca„ and Eustis, Va., shall not be
sold before June 30, 1921, and that
Camp Taylor, Ky., be sold not later
than that date. Purchase of the Cur
tiss-Elmwood airplane plant, Buffalo,
N. Y., also is directed.

GETS MONEY FROM RUBBISH
Invention of Englishman Has Proved
Its Practical Value in a Num¬
ber of Towns.
One of the most remarkable ma¬
chines in the world has just been in¬
vented by an Englishman, \Y. I*. Hoyle.
It converts dust into cash— -or, more
correctly speaking, it extracts what is
worth saving from rubbish and pre¬
pares it for redistribution. Cinders
are washed, 'lust is converted into fer¬
tilizer, tins are cleaned, and paper
and rags are sorted. Another Lit of
machinery used in this wonderful “re¬
fuse recovery plant” deals with clink¬
ers, turning them into molded con¬
crete blocks for building. It has been
proved that every hundred tons of
waste produce $160, and since a town
of 75,000 inhabitants discards about
one hundred tons of rubbish daily one
can easily work out the municipal
revenue that such a plant would pro¬
duce. Not a few towns in the United
Kingdom lmve already installed a
Hoyle rubbish converting plant. Aber¬
deen in one day collected $3,000 worth
of discarded bottles, a week’s jam-jar
collection in the city of Sheffield real¬
ized $600, while Glasgow estimates
that one year’s conversion of its rub¬
bish will bring in $20,000.
Hasty Figuring.
“I took Professor Jiggs out for a
ride in my ear the other day.”
“Yes?”
“He’s fully as absent minded as you
said be was. He was thinking about
something all the time we were riding
and never once opened his mouth.”
“I tLink I can explain that. He was
probably counting the number of jolts
you were giving him and calculating
how much energy was wasted every
time lie was hurled into the air.”—

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root ia
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as¬
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re¬
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica¬
tions are declined do not even suspect;
that they have the disease. It is on sale
at all drug stores in bottleB of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to teat this
great Kilmer preparation send ten cents to Dr.
& Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.—Adv.
