This is an inter denominational meet
ing, and every worker in every white
Sunday-school in Coweta county i« ur
gently requested to attend. The Cowe
ta County Sunday-school Association is
auxiliary to the Ge rgia Sunday-school
Association, which is a co-operative ef
fort on the part of all denominations to
improve Sunday-school conditions and
Sunday-school workers. It advocates
the latest and best methods of Sunday-
school work, and stands only for those
interests that are common to Sunday-
schools of all denominations. The plans
and methods suggested by this associa
tion are practicable for all Sunday-
schools, as they do not touch on church
doctrines. The work is by way of sug
gestion, not by authority; therefore it
helps many, hinders none. The object
is helpful and brotherly co-operation,
not organic union. The officers of the
association are leading Christian busi
ness men of all evangelical denomina
tions B. L. Redwine, County Pres’t.

si.aton bitterly denounces mob.
San Francisco, Aug 17. —FormerGov.
John M. Slaton, of Georgia, who com
muted the sentence of Leo M. Frank,
and who is here visiting the exposition,
was informed this morning that Frank
had been lynched.
“The act. was a consummate outran e, ”
said Mr. Slaton, “and every man engag
ed in the lynching should be hanged,
fer he is an assassin. Such an act is
contrary to the civilization of Georgia,
and one which every good citizen will
condemn. I could use no language too
condemnatory. 1 believe the Governor
of Georgia will use all the power of the
State to punish the malefactors who
disgraced the civilization of Georgia.
Their act was one of cowurdice, which
belongs alone to the as assin. I am
shocked and horrified beyond expres
sion. Any man who approves of this
mob of murderers is unworthy to bo a
Georgian. Any man or newspaper
which condones this offense ought to be
driven out of the State. But the con
duct of this miserable mob of assassins
is the conduct of the same sort who
shoot people from behind a fence or
murder a woman from a cowardly
hesrt.”
Mr. and Mrs. Slaton in about a week
will go to San Diego to visit the Pan-
ama-California Exposition, and after
wards will return to their home in Geor-
gia,
“Ofcouise, I’m not afraid to return
to Georgia,” he said. “This act of
lynching Leo Frank is not that of the
good people of my State. It's the act
of a few criminals. I’m going to spend
the rest of my life in Georgia. < I’ll be
back home by the middle of Septem
ber.”
WHAT TOM WATKON HAYS.
Thos. E. Watson, of Thomson, gave
out the following statement yesterday—
“Leo Frank was given a fair trial be
fore an honest jury and a just Judge.
He was convicted on the evidence of
more than forty white witnesses. The
most damning testimony against him
wns given by his own employees before
they even suapected that he was the
guilty man.
“His own wife, knowing him to he
the criminal, refused to go to Bee him
for three weeks after he was put in
jail. He made a statement to the jury
consuming an entire day, and then re
fused to allow the Slate to cross-exam
ine hirn.
“His motion for a new trial was care
fully considered, and then denied. The
Supreme Court of Georgia reviewed the
evidence and pronounced it sufficient to
support the verdict. An extraordinary
motion for new trial was overruled as
possessing no merit.
“The Supreme Court of the United
States was appealed to, and this high
est of l ribunals decided that the State
of Georgia had not denied Leo Frank
any legal right. Then the Prison Com
mission refused to recommend a com
mutation, and the case went to the
Governor.
“His commutation was an absolute
nullity. The people rose and carried
into effect the legal sentence.”
Unclaimed Letters.
The following list of unclaimed let
ters will be sent to the Division of Dead

Barbeeue at St. Charles.
The annual barbecue at St. Charles
was held on Friday, Gt.h irist. Messrs.
Scott, Braswell, Spradlin. Bexley and
others had charge of the ’cue, and they
hud it in abundance. In the art of cook
ing and preparing the meals and stew
one would have to partakeof it to know
of their proficiency in this line. About
400 people were on the grounds. The
beautiful grove at Mr. Scott’s was sup
plied with seats for the ladies and chil
dren, while the men and boys roamed
at will. Don’t think I have ever seen a
more jovial or sociable crowd gathered
together. Everybody seemed to be
having a good time, and helping his
neighbor to have a good time also. Af
ter all had eaten arid talked to their
heart’s content, our able farm demon
strator, Mr. J. H. Blackwell, wan
called on for a talk. He gave a good
talk along the line of diversifying crops,
and how to conserve and build up our
lands. He showed how such methods
could he used to pull us out of the
i “hard times” that we are now talking
so much about, und I think everyone
went home with the determination to
be a better farmer, a better father, a
better molher, a better citizen, and a
better neighbor. F. T. Meachara.

Disagreeable Calomel Is Yielding'
To Pleasant Liv-ver-Lax.
Physicians generally agree that the
unpleasant, nauseating effects of calo
mel are due to the undesirable violent
action it haH on the system. For a long

tried, but it was only recently that the
really wonderful remedy, Liv-Ver-Lax,
whs prepared succceHsfully by L. K.
Grigsby.
Liv-Ver-Lax has all the good andi
none of the bad effects of calomel. It
is a necessity in every home, always,
being ready to c'leanse the sluggish
liver and bile clogged system, with no-
unpleasant after-effects.
Liv-Ver-Lax is guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or your money will be
immediately refunded. Insist on the
original bearing the likenesB of L. K.
