EYE-WITNESS TELLS
ACCOUNT OF MURDER
OF RUSSIAN LEADER
PARIS, Jan. 26.—A vivid picture of
the circumstances of the murder, by
infuriated Bolsheviki og General Duk
honoin, formerly Commander-in-Chiet
of the Russian army, is given by the
Petrodgrad correspondent of the Matin,
who apparently was an eye-witness of
the tragedy. According to his story
Ensign Krylenko, the Bolshevik com
mander-in-chief. edeavored to save
General Dukhonoin from the mob, but
bis efforts were unavailing and the
Russian commander was struck down
by a sailor and then run through with
a dozen bayonets.
The murder took place after the
Bolsheviki had captured the head
quarters of the Russian army at Mo
hilev and followed General Dukhonin's
refusal to request the German army
official to enter into an armistice with
the Bolsheviki. The general was on
board a train when the mob surround
ed him. According to the Matin’s
correspondent the general appeared at
the window of a railway carriage.
' Throw us your epaulettes!” shriek
ed th soldiers, “or we'll kill you,” and
they shouldered their rifles.
Krylenko begged the general to give
way to them, but Dukhonin refused.
“They can go to the deuce,” he cried.
“Let them kill me.”
A bullet whistledby, breaking the
window, then a second. General Odin
tzeff went up to Dukhonin and gently
took off his epaulettes. They were
thrown to the mob and were quickly
torn to pieces, and for a moment he
thought he was saved. Then a hand
ful of sailors jumped into the carriage.
They seized Dukhonin by the should
ers and pushed him to the end of the
coach and then on to the plaform. Kry
lenko ran after them. The general’s
appearance caused a great uproar.
“Kill him right out!” they cried.
* Kerensky and Korniloff got off. Men
like him must be killed at once.”
As the mob pushed closer and closer
upon the general, Krylenko stormed
and shouted, but no one took any
notice. With a single blow the gen
eral was struck down by a tall sailor
from the rebel cruiser Aurora. Duk
honnig got on his feet again once,
his face streaming with blood. He
tried to speak but a dozen bayontes
were ruw through him, and then blows
and kicks were rained upon his body.
The sailors fought for his cloth
ing tearing it away from him. The
corpse, stripped bare, was set up
against a railway carriage and the
mob, laughing like madmen, started a
gruesome game. Sailors, Red Guards,
and soldiers made snow and mud balls
and flung them at the general’s bead.
“I could no longer look on,” writes
the Matin’s correspondent, “and dash
ed back into the carriage, where 1
found Krylenko sitting in a corner, his
face in his hands. When he lifted
his head I saw he was pale as death,
‘book at them,’ he said in a whisper.
‘There's no holding them in now. I
and all the rest of us must come to the
same end.' ”

FEDERAL AUTHORITIES
AFTER MOONSHINERS
IN SOUTHERN STATES
ATLANTA, Ga., Jan. 26.—L00k out,
moonshiners! Uncle Sam is after you,
ar d he means business. (
So much moonshine liquor is being
sold to soldiers encamped at Chicka- (
mauga, on the Georgia-Tennessee line,
and at Camp Gordon, near Atlanta, and ,
al other cantonments in Southern
states, that the federal government has '
determined to put a stop to the illicit
distilling. I
The United States district attorney (
in Atlanta, and the collector of inter- i
r.al revenue and his agents, have re
ceived instructions from Washington
to launch an aggressive campaign
against the moonshiners, and to show ,
them no quarter. They are violating
both the feedral law which prohibits
tie manufacture of whisky during the
war, the state laws which make it a
felony to manufacture whisky whether i
in war or peace times, in addition to
i this, they are violating the law which
I prohibits the use of sugar or other .
’ foodstuffs in the manufacture of liquor.;
' They are outlaws both in the eyes of
: the federal and the state governments.
State officials have been called on
| by the federal government to aid the
• revenue officers in putting th moon
j sl.iners out of business, and have given
their promise of hearty support.

ADMINISTRATION IS
GOING AFTER FOOD
HOARDERS IN OHIO
ATLANTA, Jan. 26.—Some of the
states are coming down heavily with
the enforcement of the food control
anti-hoarding law, some cases of which
1 would serve to illustrate that any peo
ple in Georgia who entertain an idea
that they can safely get by with the
hoarding may be deceiving themselves.
Dr. Andrew M. Soule, federal food
■ administrator for Georgia, has just
been officially informed of very de
cisive steps taken by the federal food
administrator for Ohio, to prevent
hoarding.
Three men at Conneaut, Ohio, found
with supplies of flour In excess of their
■ reasonable requirements, have been
forced to turn them back to the store
from which they were purchased. The
j st me action was taken in the case of
I a woman who had purchased flour suf
j ficient to last her for more than a
■ year. In a telegram to the Smith
■ Cash Store of Conneaut, from which
| the goods were purchased, the federal
i food administrator asked for names
' of all persons who have purchases be
yond their reasonable needs, instructed
the store to refund money for the
goods returned by the three men and
the woman, and declared that further
sales in such quantities would be fol
lowed by prosecution under the federal
food control act. One man has three
and one-half barrels of flour; another
two and one-sixth barrels, and the
third three and three-fourth barrels.

I COLUMBUS, Ga., Jan. 26.—" The war
will continue so live more years,”
' state President A. F. Kunze, of the
Columbus Chamber of Commerce, who
i i
has returned from an extended visit
in Washington. However, this is not
the personal opinion of the Columbus- -
ite, but a composite opinion of Wash- 1
ington’s official family.
I The general belief in the capital city
is that the war is still in its infanoy
and that the next year or two will not
see its end, stated Mr. Kunze.
"If there is anything that irritates a
man more than Washington I am yet
to find it,” emphatically declared the,
commercial head. “Washington is some'
big, hustling and over-crowded city,
right now, and decidedly undemodemo-;
cratic.”
I While in the national capitol, Mr. I
Kunze had occasion to visit and con- ■
verse with a numebr of rpresentatives.|
He also saw congress in action, and !
his description of how that august ■
body works is wonderful.
i When asked if W. C. Wright, the:
newly elected congressman from this I
district, would cpt much of a figured
Mr. Kunze replied that no new rep- j
resentative does and that Mr. Wright!
will have to wait for about two years!
before his ability is recognized.
I “I asked Henry Stegall, representa
! tive from the Third district of Ala
i bama, if he had succeeded in getting I
into the ropes and the reply was that I
while he had been in Washington two I
years he was just beginning to get
acquainted,” stated the Columbusite.
| In speaking of the various limelight
representatives, Mr. Kunze stated that
La Follette is considered a construc-
I ive criticizer of the administration,
’ while Senator Stone’s reputation is the
reversed. Senator Hoke Smith, of
Georgia, is regarded in "Washington
as a constructionist and not obstruc-
1 tionist, stated Mr. Kunze.

CONSTIPATION
And Sour Stomach Cauei Thh
Lady Much Suffering. Black-
Draught Relieved.
Meadorsville, Ky.—Mrs. Petri Pat
rick, of this place, writes: “I was
▼ery constipated. I had sour stomach
and was so uncomfortable. I went to
the doctor. He gave me some pills.
They weakened me and seemed to
tear up my digestion. They would
gripe me and afterwards it seemed
I was more constipated than before.
I heard of Black-Draught and de
cided to try it I found it Just what I
needed. It was an easy laxative, and
not bad to swallow. My digestion soon
improved. I got well of the sour stom
ach, my bowels soon seemed normal,
no more griping, and I would take a
dose now and then, and was in good
shape.
J cannot say too much for Black-
Draught for it is the finest laxative
one can use.”
Thedford's Black-Draught has for
many years been found of great value
in the treatment of stomach, liver and
bowel troubles. Easy to take, gentle
and reliable in its action, leaving nc
bad after-effects, it has won the praise
of thousands of people who have used
it NC-135
There 1b more Catarrn in this section
of the country than '.ll other diseases

posed to be incurable. Doctors prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing
to cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Catarrh is a local disease,
greatly influenced by constitutional con
ditions and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Medi
cine. manufactured by F. J. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is a constitutional
remedy, is taken internally and acts
