PAGE SIX 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.' ” PELLA GRA This new disease is spreading over the South with a 25 per cent, yearly •nciea.e, leaving hc.rror and death in its wak Y.m will wa:r to read the story of how nine years ago I discovered the cause of this disease, and how thous ands of pellagra sufferers have been rts-ortd to good health by a simple home tieatment.

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. To Prevent The Grip.

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. Lost or Mislaid.

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.
