Mr. Watson What has become of Mr. Thomas E. Watson? We have heard from some source that he has gone to New York to enter a sanitarium. — Savannah Press. Mr. Watson is at his home in Thompson. He was seen on the streets of his home town only last week. The death of his daughter and his papers being suppressed came as a great blow to Watson. But here is an incident concerning Watson : When the government was behind him good and strong, he wired the Attorney-General that he was willing to cut out his fight against the government and go anywhere it wanted him—to the Shara desert, if necessary. Mr. Watson was exceedingly pern tent, and promised to be real good in the future. The Attorney-Gen eral ignored him. It has been predicted that Mr. Watson was storing up ammunition to be ex ploded after the war. But, in our opinion, the country has seen thes last of Watson as an anti-govern ment extremist. —Greensboro Her ald. “Aren’t you ashamed of scold ing so, Willie? Just see what a sweet expression Tommy Jones is wearing.” “Well, he has to wear it. He has just thrown a rock through the preacher’s window, and he’s waiting now to make the preacher believe it was done by a little b_y in a blue suit who ran down the street.” Old Soldier Gives Recommenda tion Gustav Wangelin, Commander of G.
