Wholesale Distributors for Cordele )DUBLIN IS PROSPEROUS iN SPITE OF REVOLT Dublin, Ireland, Dec. s.—The Dub lin correspondent of the Associated Press has interviewed the Right Hon. James Gallegher, Lord Mayor of Dub lin, in reference to the statements ’which have been made regarding a 'supposed excptional _state of distress in the city due to the April rebellion, and its suppression. ’ The lord mayor said: “We are ahso ‘lutely better off this year than last year, notwithstanding the rebellion. ;There is, as far as I can see, no ex ceptional distress at all. There is, on the contrary, a good deal of money coming into the citf for separatior allowances for the dependents of the men, most of them of the working classes who joined the army. Infor ; mation obtained from various traders | in the city enable me to say that trade is as good if not better than it was twelve months ago. Moreover, em ployment has been added to owing to the amount of munition work done in the city. We have five or six fac tories each employing from one hun dred to six hundred hands. Women are earning very good wages and Dublin women have proved very adaptable in shell making. The result is that the government is able to turn out shells in Dublin and in Ireland generally cheaper -than- it ean do it in England. “The effect of the rebellion,” said the lord mayor, “was temporary. A certain number of people were thrown out of employment by the destruction of the premises in which they worked, but that temporary need was prompt ly met. I got up a fund which amounted to five or six thousand pounds, and the local committee which had been working for the Prince of Wales’ fund in relief of war distress gave me permission to spend from their resources something like 2,000 pounds in addition. We had the ad vantage in distributing these funds to the necessitious of all the machinery used by the local relief committee. The ’ need was only tmporary; most of the people who were not employed at that! time have got employment either from thir.old or new employment. Some went to England and secured cmployment in the munition factories. “The authorities of the St. Vincent de Paul Sociefy, who have closer touch with the poor in the city of Dublin than any other organization, {ell me that the number of cases on their books in the city is exactly the same today as it was at the begin ning of October last year.” GROOM iS 85 AND THE BRIDE 65. Americus, Dec. s.—Judge Emory heart of man never grows old was shown here this week when J. K. Outz, aged 85, married Mrs. Annie Stanaland. The bride is about twenty years the junior of her husband.

UNCLE SAM IS MAKING H!S PART OF BIG MAP Washington, Dec. s—Rapid pro gress is being made by the TUnited States in preparing its portion of the huge world map which was agreed upcn in 1909 by nearly all the prin cipal countries. Ry international agreement the authorities began pre paring, maps of the entire surface of the earth to be published on a scale one-millionth of actual size, or about one inch to every sixteen miles. All the maps are to be uniform to shap and general appearance and are to have the same conventional signs. To meet the popular demand in this ountry for state maps, the United states geological survey, which has ‘harge of the making of the American ection of the world map, is preparing »nd publishing maps of each state on » larger scale than the world map ‘ections. These state maps are twice he size or about one inch to every xight miles. A map of the entire Uni ed States on that scale would cover . sheet measuring 20 feet by 31 feet. The survey already has issued such naps for 33 states, the latest being hat of Florida, which is one of the ‘argest of the series. In compiling he maps every available source of in ‘ormation has been ransacked for ma erial, and many data never before vvailable to:the public in any form lave been procured, so that the maps >xceed in accuracy any heretofore published. The new Florida map meas ires 44 1-2 inches by 61 inches. 'STORY OF TRIPLE MURDER IN HARRIS CO.

SHELL STEEL BOUGHT FOR EXPORT IN 1917 New York, Dec. s.—Buying of shell steel for export in 1917, the placing of rail contracts by domestic railroads for shipment in 1918 and excited buy ing of pig iron. for the next year at rapidly advancing prices, are the most prominent features of business in the iron trade industry. Of scarcely less large orders for other railroad equip ment, especially for cars and the in sistent demand for steel to be used in the construction of ships. Contracts placed for ignots, billets and bars designed for the manufacture of war munitions abroad now are es timated at 1,300,000 tons for ship-ment in the second half of 1917. Of the to tal 600,000 tons are credited to the United Steel corporation and 700,000 ‘ons to independent mills. Including sales for export in the first half of next year the entente allied govern ments now have secured 2,000,000 tons »f American shell steel to be shipped n 1917. Sales are reported at 4 to 415 rents per pound. Domestic railroads have either clos 'd contracts or reserved mill space for ,000,000 tons of standard section rails or rolling and shipment in 1918 at the ecent advance in prices. The southern roads have called for 00,000 tons. Merchant car builders took orders ‘or nearly 40,000 cars in November naking a total of 78,500 bought in the ‘ast three months. Foreign ship yards want 150,000 ‘ons of steel plates and shapes and lomestic boat builders would buy as much more if it were available. A few contracts are being closed. : Novembr sales of pig iron are esti | mated at 1,800,000 tons, including 500, 1 000 tons during the last week. These | are the heaviest monthly sales ever reported. Prices of steel making iron have again advance $3 to $5 per ton. j o ———————————————————— ; For many years the people of Spain have made bread from peanut meal. THE CORDELE DISPATY H, WEDNESDAY, DEC. 6, 1916. BURDEN MRS. DORA UPCHURCH SAYS SHE ‘ SUFFERED FROM ONE DAY’S! END TO ANOTHER. “I believe -this medicine has kept me out of the grave, for to tell you the plain truth I don’t see how I could have lived much longer,” said Mrs. Do ra Upchurch, 345 Wylie street, Atlan | ta. Mrs. Upchurch is the mother of sleven childrnen, and is one of the best known and most highly respected wo men in Atlanta. “ T had indigestion of the worst kind,” she continued, “but for nearly 1 year I suffered more, from rheuma tism than anything else. 1 also suf fered from female troubles, and all these troubles together just pulled me down until I was getting so I could hardly go at all. To tel you the truth my life was almost a burden. “I couldn’t eat anything hardly without suftfering afterwards, and al ways after eating I would have a full ancomfortable feeling. At times 1 would have dizzy spells and would get s 0 blind 1 could hardly stand on my feet without danger of falling. The rheummatism would hurt me so bad I couldn’t sleep at night, and it jusij ‘geemed like I was in some kind of pain from one day’s end to another. I felt tired and worn out and unfit for work, and couidn’t take interest in anything on acconut of my condition. No kind of medicine seemed to do me any good and I lcst weight and strength con tinually. “This is just the condition I was in when my husband got me to try Tan lac. He seid he was sure it would help me, kecause it had done so much for him. I hadn’t been taking it any ime hardly until I could mee ‘all the lifference in the world in my feling ¢ actually gained ten pounds on the qrst three hottles and had to have my clothes let cut hecause they were get ‘ing too tight for me. “The rheumatic pains have left me almost entirely and I sleep fine at night. Ay appetite is good, too, and [ can eat anything I want and as much s I want and have no more trouble with indigestion. It's simply wonder sul what this medicine has done for me, and I just don’t know what 1 would hawe done without it. I wish I could tell everybody in twon about it Tanlac is sold in Cordele by J.

C., Dec. s.—As an ymergency measure to relieve the ‘reight car shortage the interstate sommerce commission today authoriz ad railroads to establish and maintain Imtil May 1, next, a new progressive lemurrage scale, higher than the pres nt flat rate of $1 a day. The scale is 1 compromise hetween the proposed zraduated schedule in the railroad ariffs recently suspended and the rates suggested by shippers’ interests. The rates will become effective three lays after each railroad files with the sommission its formal schedule, prob \bly within a week. : Under the new scale, two free days wre allowed and subsequent charges wre $1 for the third day, $2 for the ‘ourth day, $3 for the fifth day and $5 ‘or the sixth day and each day there \fter.

Albany, Dec. s.—Baconton, a pro gressive little town in Mitchell couh ty, hetween Albany and Camilla, is headquarters for an extensivie new industry that bids afri to grow into | even greater propostions. This new enterprise his put more than a quarter of, a million dollars into the pockets of the people living in and near Bacon ton this fall. F. H. Lewis, a prominent pecan grower of Pascagoula, Miss, came here last spring and bought up ‘the crops of several large growers in ‘the Albany pecan district. He- has opened a nut cracking industry in Ba conton and has dozens of laborers, men and women, engaged in cracking pecans, sorting the kernels and pack-‘ ing the products for shipment all over! the United States. More than 300.000! pounds of pecans have been purchased by Mr. Lewis, and all these will be sracked, graded and shipped. Mr. Lewis will build a nut-cracking and zrading factory in Baconton, with warehouse facilities, and make this wn establishment industry for Bacon-i ton. | One large planter in Baconton ex pressed the attitude of that section to wvard this new industry as follows: ‘When we realize what the boll wee vil means to us, those of us who have bearing pecan groves and have receiv >d good money for our pecans this vear, with the assurance that there will be a ready market for the in reased crop that we may have rea son to expect next year and every year 1s the yield grows with the age of ‘he trees, get a right comfortable feel ‘ng out of the situation. CHINA AWAKENS WITH A NATIONAL FEELING Shanghia, Dec. s.—Recent celebra ions throughout China of the fifth inniversary of the republic indicates learly that the Chinese are undoubt >dly developing a national conscious -less. Lantern parades and patriotic meetings were held even in remote sec ‘ions. The celebrations were not fore ‘ed upon the public by official orders, 1s was the cast frequently under ‘Yuan Shi-kai's regime. Regret concerning the present troubled political situation character ized the general comment of Chinese newspapers and Chinese speakers on the occasion of the anniversary cele bration. During the five years of its life the ‘epublic has had two important rev slutions in addition to the movement which resulted in the overthrow of ‘he Manchu dynasty. There have also heen many local movements of minor mportance which resulted in consid srable loss of life and property. ~ Bandit leaders and unscrpulous soliticians have exploited various yarts of the country, and there has heen corruption to a degree not ex celled by the Manchus. However,. hroughout all this disorder and ‘hroughout the present struggle be ‘ween parliamentarians and the mili ary party, it has been possible to de ect a growing love of independence and of country, which has finally re sulted in the firm establishment of President Li Yuan-hung in the affec ions of the public. Minor politicians, leaders of va rious political factions are carrying on a bitter struggle, but Li Yuan-hung stands clearly above these factional fights, and is generally regarded by the Chinese people as an absolutely honest and patriotic leader.
