DIES IN ATLANTA.
Atlanta, Aug. 8. Following a
fainting spell near the Capitol
yesterday afternoon, Represent
ative Henry (’lay Smith of latt-,
nail county, G 5 years old, died at
the Grady Hospital this morning,
and after brief sessions l>oth
houses of the General Assembly
adjourned today as a mark of re
spect, passing resolutions paying
him tribute and providing for a
joint committee of six from the
House and three from the Sen
ate to accompany the body to his
home.
Mr. Smith was talking to a
friend just across the street from
the Capitol and seemed in the
best of health and spirits, when
suddenly an expression of pain
crossed his face and he would
have fallen but for timely assis
tance. An ambulance was call
ed, and Mr. Smith was taken to
the hospital. His death was due
to acute dilation of the heart,
said to have been caused by in
digestion.
He is survived by his wife and
four sons. I!is home was in
Reidsville. He was a farmer and
had been for thirty years a jus
tice of the peace and deputy
sheriff. This was his first term
in the Legislature, The body
will be taken to his home tomor
row.
TWO YEARS IN COURT
HART IS FREED.
Moultrie, Ga., Aug. 11. The
trial of John Hart, charged with
the murder of Will Williams, ter
minated tonight at 7 o’clock,
when the jury returned a verdict
of not guilty. When the verdict
was read by the clerk, the wife
of the aged defendant threw her
self into his arms and they clung
to each other in a most affection
ate manner, while their children,
grandchildren and other relatives
and friends swarmed around
them in an effort to reach him,
who had been cleared of felony
charge.
As soon as formally discharged
Hart left the court room, and en
tering a buggy left wit h his fam
ily for his home, twelve miles
from town, and which he had not
seen in nearly two years.
The arguments of counsel were
concluded at 1:80 o’clock today,
and a recess was taken until 2:15
when Judge Park delivered his
charge, which consumed thirty
five minutes. The jury was con
ducted to its room to form a ver
dict.
Not many thought a verdict
would Ih> reached before morn
ing, but just before 7 o’clock the
bailiff sent word to the judge,
who was at his hotel, that the
jury was ready to report and
messengers were dispatched in
search of counsel and a deputy
went to the jail to convey the
prisoner to the courthouse. The
verdict is a surprise to many, as
a verdict of voluntary manslaugh
ter was expected, while but a
very few thought a verdict of
not guilty would lie rendered.
The defendant and his counsel
were the recipients of hearty con
gratulations from the numerous
friends of the defendant for the
able manner in which the de
fense was conducted.

Money To Loan.
I am in position now to secure
loans on farm lands and town
property in Montgomery County.
! The lender that will handle my
I business is especially desireable
for parties that want big loans
on farm lands, and for those who
want to build homes in towns.
Their interest is fi per cent.
Terms five years, the borrow pay
ing 1-10 each year thereby re
ducing the interest, and princi
pal so the final settlement will be
easy. The money for building
or improving homes in towns is
also 6 per cent, money, and the
loans are arranged so the bor
rower repays monthly for GO
j months. You only have to add
a little to the amount you are
paying as rent to own you a
. home in a short time. I think
I this a good way for a person to
get a home.

Prevent and

"It gives me great pleasure to
be able to refer to Dr. Miles'
Anti-Pain Pills as the best rem
edy we have yet had in our

cure of headache. My wife who
has been a constant sufferer for
a number of years with above
complaint joins me in the hope
that they may fall into the hands
of all sufferers.”

"Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills
are the best I ever tried for the

they never fail to give me relief.
I I have tried many other rem

better.”
JOSEPH FRANKOWICK,

There is no remedy that will
more quickly relieve any form
of headache than
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills.
The best feature of this re

it does not derange the stomach

effects.
