CRAWFORD’S SHOES SACRIFICED.
Chas.L. Ansley
Successor to
Wheatley & Ansley
L. C. Joiner, the convicted forger
held in the Americus Jail for two
months past, and recently adjudged
of unsound mind by a jury in the
court of ordinary, will go to Mllledge-
vllle all right enough, but not to the
State Sanitarium.
The State Prison Farm will be his
destination, instead.
Joiner was to have been carried
away this morning to the lunatic
asylum, or sanitarium, but a letter
received yesterday by Judge Cobb
changes these plans.
It seems (hat under the Acts of
1904, the criminally insane cannot
be received as patients at the State
Sanitarium, but instead are received
at the Insane hospital maintained in
connection with the state prison farm
there.
And as Joiner has been duly ad
judged a criminal,’ admission to the
Asylum is denied him, and to the
farm he goes.
Motion for new trial in the for
gery case, In which he was convicted
recently and sentenced to a term
of five years in the State Penitentiary,
has been made by Joiner's counsel
and this acts as a supercedeas' for
the present.
Judge Littlejohn will render a de
cision soon In the motion filed for a
new trial of the case.
If this is denied, Joiner may be
carried at once to the prison farm
and incarcerated in the insane hospi
tal. He will -be a prisoner as well
as patient, and the time of his con
finement there will count on his five
years sentence.
The case will doubtless be carried
to the Supreme Court, and later to
the Pardon Board for clemency. If
these measures all fail Joiner may
spend the greater portion, if not all
of his sentence, at the insane hos
pital on the farm.
It was expected that he would he
carried this morning to the Luna
tic Asylum, but aB he canot be
ccived there, as notice was given
yesterday, this plan will be changed.
The fact that he is a convicted fel
on, (hough later declared of unsound
mind by another jury, alters the case
materially. He will remain in the
comfortable jail cell he has long oc
cupied until the mcxio' for new trial
is decided.
What other steps will then be taken
remains to be seen.
Gov. Smith, under the law, must di
rect the sending of Joiner to the
prison farm, or whatever disposition
Is to be made of him, and all papers
in the case are now in his hands.
PROPHECIES END
OEjWORLD IN 1908
Some of Gloomy Things to
Happen.
YOHK, PA., Dec. 27.—(Special) —
Lee J. Spangler whose prophesies
have attracted the attention of people
all over the world; has Issued his
1908 bulletin. It is more startling
than some of those previously Issued,
for he announces that the world will
come to an end.
Spangler has made many prophe
sies. One of his most recent was the
prediction of the Wall street trou
bles and the suicide of a banker.
Some time ago he issued a state
ment in which he asserted that the
United States would go to war and
would be victorious; that It would
ride the sea with its vessels and be
supreme on the high waters, and that
all the nations would be Involved in
the coming war. The following is
his last bulletin over his signature;
“The Treasury will go dry.
“People will carry their money in
their pockets and hide it in their
houses.
"Families will steal it from one an
other. This is the gold that Is piled
up for the last days. This gold will
be rust in your pockets. It will give
you more trouble than good.
Labor organizations will come
under one head and rule the land.
“There will be great wrath among
the people; hatred; killing one ano
ther; hanging themselves, and child
ren will rise aginst their parents, two
against three and three against two;
mother-in-law against daughter-in-
law. .
BULLET IN LUNG LAID
LOW A BLAGK BROTHER
Fourth Killing of Holidays
Here.
The plstoiorlc pleasantries so gen
eral in rustic colored circles about
Americus during the holidays was
further heightened yesterday when
the sheriff harpooned John Charles
Marshall out on the Dodson farm for
having snuffed out the light of an
other black brother. Gene Mathis.
Gene got It through the lung,'and a
high-toned funeral was thus assured
at the start. Marshall alleges that
tlte shooting was accidental, as are
most of the fatalities marking the
holidays, but he was jailed until a
full investigation is had. This is thqr
fourth fatal shootfest among negroes
here during the past week; ''
Women as Well as Men
Are Made Miserable by
Kidney Trouble.
Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dls-
tourages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor
and cheerfulness soon
disappear when die kid

or diseased.
Kidney trouble has
become so prevalent
that It is not uncommon
for a child to be bom
afflicted with weak kid

urine scalds the flesh or if, when the child
