Virginia Lady Realized She
Couldn’t Stay Nervous,

Cardui Helped Her
(
Dublin, Va, —Mrs. Sallie Hughett.
of Route 2, this place, recently re
lated her interesting experience in
recovering her health, saying: “when

condition and no’ning the doctor

you have to let this take its course

something to give relief. I was
nervous, weak and pale. I couldn’t
eat or sleep to do any good, and felt
I couldn’t stand this very long.
“I heard and reqd of Cardui. and
how it had benefited other women in

use it myself. After my first bottle
I felt better, so of course kept it up,
and it did the wtfrk.
“It helped me as nothing else did.

ate and slept and could rest, I knew
I was getting better. I kept it up
and it did wonders for me.”
Thousands of women, suffering as
this Virginia lady did, have used
Cardui with equally happy results,
and voluntarily relate their experi
ences so that others, troubled with
disorders common among women,
may learn to take Cardui.

Cured.
I was badly ruptured while lifting a trunk
several years ago. Doctors said my only
hope of cure was an operation. Trusses did
me no good. Finally I got hold of some
thing that quickly and completely cured me.
Years have passed and the rupture has never
returned, although I am doing hard work as
a carpenter. There was no operation, no.
lost time, no trouble. I have nothing to
sell, but will give full information about
how you may find a complete cure without
operation, if you write to me. Eugene M.

THE ATLANTA TRI-WEEKLY JOURNAL.
SAYS TENNESSEE
LEGISLATURE CAN
ACT ON SUFFRAGE
WASHINGTON, June 24.—Assist
ant Attorrtey General Frierson has
advised Governor Roberts, of Ten
nesee, that the legislature of that
state could ratify the suffrage
amendment without submitting the
issue to the people.
Mr. Frierson’s opinion, given oral
ly and in writing both to Governor
Roberts and the "attorney general -of
Tennessee, was based largely on
decision of the United States su
preme court in the. Ohio referendum
case. In that case the court held
that ratification of amendments
could be had only by state legisla
tures or conventions and that pro
visions of state constitutions that
ratification be referred to a vote of
the people conflicted with the fed
eral constitution.
The White House today made pub
lic a letter sent by President Wil
son to Assistant Attorney General
Frierson on the Tennessee suffrage
question.
“A constitutional question has
arisen in Tennessee with regard to
the power of the legislature to act at
once upon the pending suffrage
amendment to the constitution of the
United States,” the president wrote.
”A member of the Tennessee congres
sional delegation have requested the
view of the federal authorities on
that question, and I would be very
much obliged if you would look into
the matter for me and let me have
the view of the department, which I
will be glad to l communicate to the
member of congrefes who made the
inquiry.”
Mr. Frierson replied as follows:
“I have the honor to acknowledge
receipt of your note requesting my
views as to the power of the present
legislature of Tennessee, if. called in
extra session, to ratify the proposed
suffrage amendment. I have recently
discussed this question in some per
sonal correspondence with the at
torney general of Tennessee, and
hence"am prepared to answer your In
quiry promptly.
“The constitution of Tennessee
contains a provision to the effect shat
no legislature shall act on an amend
ment to the federal constitution un
less elected after the proposal of the
amendment. The present Tennessee
legislature was elected before the
suffrage amendment was proposed.
“The ruling of the supreme court,
however, in the recent Ohio cisps,
and the consideration which I gave
to this question in preparing those
cases for hearing, leaves no doubt in
my mind that the power of the legis
lature to ratify an amendment to
the federal constitution is derived
solely from the people of the United
States through the federal constitu
tion arid not from either the people
or the constitution of a state. • The
power thus derived cannot be taken
a'way, limited, or restricted in any
way by the constitution of a state.
The provision of the Tennessee coni
stitution above referred to, if valid,
would undoubtedly be a restriction
upon that power. If the people of a
state, through their constitution, can
delay action on an amendment until
after one election, there is no reason
why they cannot delay it until after
two elections, or five elections, or un
til the lapse of any period of time
they may see fit, and thus practically
nullify thq article of the federal con
stitution providing for amendments.
I am, therefore, confident that if the
Tennessee legislature is called in
session it will have the clear power
to rsltify the amendment notwith
standing any provision of I the Ten
nessee constitution.”
If Tennessee is the 36th state to
ratify the suffrage amendment, the
validity of women’s votes may be at
tacked in the courts, it is believed.
Miss Alice Paul, chairman of the
woman’s party, said today that Gov
ernor Roberts’ decision to call a spe
cial session ofj the legisalture to act
on the suffrage amendment, “means
certain victory.” A recent canvass
of both Tennessee houses, she said,
indicated a safe majority in favor
of ratification. .
“This, of course, will be a triumph
for the Democratic party,” Miss Paul
declared, “and already has had the
effect of pushing Republican
to seteure action in Vermont.”
TENNESSEE GOVERNOR
TO CALL EXTRA SESSION
NASHVILLE, Tenn., June 24.
Suffrage hopes rallied today when
it was learned Governor Roberts
planned to call a special session of
the legislature to act on the federal
suffrage amendment following re
ceipt of a telegram from President
Wilson urging such action in the
interests of “real service to the party
and to the nation.”
The governor, however, failed to
comment on the constitutionality of
the legislature’s act should a favor
able vote on the suffAige amendment
be reached, saying that matter was
being discussed between state At
torney General Thompson and de
partment of jutiqe officials at Wash
ington. > I
“It is purely a federal matter and
not a state question,” the governor
said, “and I have nothing to do with
that end of it.”
The provision in the Tennessee
constitution under discussion reads:
“No convention or general assem
bly of this state shall act upon any
amendment of the constitution of the
United States unless such convention
or general assembly shall have been
elected after such amendment is sub
mitted.”
SUFFRAGE WILL BE
CONSIDEREOD AT RALEIGH
RALEIGH, N. C., June 24. —The
question of ratification of the fed
eral woman suffrage amendment will
come up before the North Carolina
general assembly, to be called in ex
traordinary session between July 20
and August 10 to receive the re-val
uation report of the tax commission,
it, was stated today at the office of
Governor Bickett.
The Democratic state convention
recently embodied a plank in its plat
form memorializing the legislature
to ratify the Anthony amendment at
the special session, and Governor
Bickett has announced he would rec
omm en d that this be done.
McAdoo Brands Report

NEW YORK, June 24. —In a writ

as false report of a New York
newspaper which declared he would
not make the presidential race be
cause of ill health. The statement
says:
“My attention has just been called
to the statement that I have tuber

be guilty of such a wanton falsehood.
There is not a shadow of foundation
for such a statement. It would be

Pen Expert Fisher Is Seized Here
While Others Arrested in Providence
Charles "Conrad" Fisher, dean of
forgery experts, was arrested re
cently as the “pen” .of a band of
forgers which has cleaned up thou
sands of dollars from banks in the
last year. Fisher is seventy-two
years old. He had not been forging
checks, so far as the records go,
since the death of his accomplice,
"Sheeny Rachel” >Hurd, several years
ago while he was serving a sentence
in London.
Fisher was arrested at Eighth
avenue and 129th street, New York,
by Detective O’Brien and Operatives
Wagner and Graham, of the Pinker
ton force, on information obtained
in Providence, when four members
of the band, who, according to the
police, confessed they have swindled
banks in New York, Baltimore, New
HAven, Brooklyn and Philadelphia
out of more than $40,000 since Jan
uary, were caught.
These men, now held at New Hav
en, are “Big Steve.” Nelson, Ed
ward Lasslo, a female impersonator
who is known on the stage as “Les
lie Jazz,” Jacob Stern and Louis
Novello. According to the police, all
but Lasslo have criminal records in
this and other states.
Two Checks Found Forged
On May 15 Stern took up his
residence at No. 281 Washington
street, Providence, and on the same
day deposited S6OO in cash and a
check for S4OO in the National Bank
of Commerce there. Then he with
drew S4OO and did not visit the
bank again until June 2, when he
deposited a check drawn on the
Metropolitan Bank of New York for
$4,950. The following day he de
posited a check drawn on the same
institution for $9,850. Both the
checks were signed ,with the forged
Signature of a New York banker
whose name is withheld.
When the $4,950 check came to
the New York clearing house the
forgery was discovered and the
Pinkertons notified. They followed
the’ men until Saturday, when they
called at the National Bank of
Commence and sought to withdraw
$14,000. Stern, Lasslo and _ Novello
were then arrested and on informa
tion given by them Nelson “was
“Shimipy” and Its Allies in
Discord as Old-Time Steps Return
Farewell to the shimmy and its
step-sisters, the dizzy and entirely
meaningless steps that have originat
ed within the last two years to bring
blushes to the elders; cheeks and pro
tests from the clergy. They are
doomed at last. It is announced by
F. Ziegfeld, Jr., that in the staging
of his future musical productions he
purposes to eliminate altogether the
“bunny-hugging,” “death-gripping”
steps, and substitute the old-time
waltz and two-step. He says he may
even revive the old square dance, and
show the rising generation just how
our grandfathers and grandmothers
used to pass their time. ■ ’
Mr. Ziegfeld tries 1 to please the
great majority. He respects the
wishes of the minority, and dislikes
greatly to take from its chief pas

Girl Attempts Suicide Because
Os Failure to Pass* Examinations
The parents and five brothers and
sisters of Pearl Kluger, sixteen-year
old school girl, Who shot herself in
the abdomtn because she failed to
pass the examinations that would
have graduated her from Public
School No. 164, Brooklyn, New York,
volunteered to submit to blood trans
fusion, when surgeons of Kings
County hospital said another such
operation might be necessary.
The first to offer his blood to save
Pearl was the father, Davis Kluger,
of No. 1145 Forty-fifth street, Brook
lyn, at which address the girl at
tempted suicide.
Mrs. Sara Frey, young war widbw,
the sister, who submitted to the
transfusion of a pint of blood Fri
day night, again offered to aid Pearl.
Passion Play Is Believed Gone Forever;
People Too Old to Participate in Play
BERNE, Switzerland.—The world
probably has seen the last of the
famous passion plays of Oberammer
gau.
Under normal circumstances this
would have been an Oberammergau
year and tourists from all parts of
the world would hav«» crowded into
the little Bavarian village to witness
the famous plays, which have been
performed once every decade for
more than three centuries. There
will be no performanc in 1920.
“I have just had a talk with the
impersonator of Christ, Anton Lang,”
a correspondent writes.
“Why are you not going to play
this year?”
“There are several reasons. Per
sonally I should like to, and so would
four-fifths of my fellow performers,
if only to help along the feeling of
"the brotherhood of nations.
“Only a few days ago I had an
offer from a big American impresario
to come to the United' States and
give our passion play there. I could
ask for any sum I wanted and it
would be paid without haggling, but
I am not going to do so.
“You know strikes are the order
picked up when he arrived on the
federated express from New York.
• The police say Nelson was used
by the gang to procure cancelled
checks in the New York financial
district, where he obtained employ
ment as a window . cleaner. They
say he received a weekly salary
from the band. Stern, and Novello
aided by Lasslo, the police allege,
disposed of the checks Fisher forg
ed. Two weeks ago they purchased
a protectigraph for perforating the
amounts on the forged checks they
presented.
Had Combination of Safe
When Fisher was arrested he had
copies of the signatures of promi
nent Wall street men in his posses
sion. In a memorandum book the
police found a plan of the office
of a Broad street house which con
tained accurate information, includ
ing the combination of the safe. Of
ficers of this firm reported that fif
teen blank checks were missing.
Some time ago, according to the
police, Stern quarreled with Fisher
over the division of some money.
In New Haven, they hited an apart
ment near the Yale campus, posed
as students and deposited two
checks drawn by the. American
Woolen company, payable to Hayry
Patterson, in the Merchants bank
there. These checks passed through
the New York clearing house and
the gang obtained. $9,000 from the
Merchants bank. .
The records at police headquarters
show that Fisher was arrested here
first in 1874 and sentenced to Sing
Sing for grand larceny. After his
release he became associated with a
band of forgers and mail box
thieves. He was caught in Cincin
nati for forgery and while the case
was pending escaped and went to
England. There he was arrested try
ing to get a wax impression of the
key to a mail box in the financial
district Inspector Cray recognized
him immediately yesterday when he
was ,taken to headquarters.

And so in the near future one may
go to the Frolic or to the Follies and
see a fiddler fiddling away at one
end of the stage, while the beautiful
lassies perform their dance steps a la
the old barn dance.
“There is a tendency to get away
from the suggestive form of dances
we have been forced to . show,” he
says. “If you look up and down
Broadway at the ' different musical
productions you will find that the old
customs, with their conservative
manners, are making the biggest hits.
What the.people want is beauty and
grace, but they don’t want to be
afraid to take their children to see
it.”
The ohild’s condition was some
what improved recently, but is still
considered critical.
'T am sorry I didn’t make a good
job of it,” Pearl told Mrs. Frey.
> “I wanted to shoot myself through
the heart,” she said to her brother,
Frank, “but the bullet didn’t go
right.”
When the blood was being taken
from the arm of Mrs. Frey, Pearl
pleaded with her sister not to under
go she operation. The young -vjidow
is also a patient at the hospital.
Surgeons said they would not at
tempt to probe for the bullet until
the girl’s condition improves.
It was learned that the gun Pearl
used belonged to her brother, Phil

LABOR BOARD TO
EXPEDITE AWARD
IN RAIL WAGES
WASHINGTON, June 24.—Presi
dent Wilson has received a reply
from the railroad labor board in
Chicago promising to expedite the
award in the railroad wage contro
versy. The message wi\s in reply to
one sent by the president.
Later the text of the president’s
telegram to the board was made- pub
lic. It follows:
“Reports placed before me showed
transportation situation hourly grow
ing more difficult and I am wonder
ing whether it would not be possible
for your board to announce a deci
sion with reference to the pending
wage matter. At least would it not
be possbile for your board, if it has
reached no final conclusion relative
to these vital matters, tentatively to
agree upon a settlement or even a
partial settlement.”
The president’s telegram was made
public after W. L. McMenimen, dep
uty president of the Brotherhood of
Railroad Trainmen, had called at the
White House. Mr. McMenimen said
that assurance of the president’s ef
forts to expedite the award, in view
of reports from Chicago that no mes
sage had been received would have a
most helpful effect.
LABOR BOARD IS RUMORED
TO HOLD DIVIDED VIEWS
CHICAGO, June 24.—A well-con
firmed report in circulation in labor
circles today said the railway labor
board was divided three ways on
the wage controversy, the labor
group holding out for an award
which both the company and public
representatives thought exorbitant,
and the company group refusing to
concede an award that the public
group held reasonable.
While conceding that each group
holds its own ideas and that there is
naturally a wide divergence of opin
ion, George W. Hanger, of the board,
declared today that there was noth
ing in the present situation to war
rant the assumption that the board
faced a deadlock. There was every
indication, he said, that a satisfe
tory agreement will be reached with
in a reasonable length of time.
Union leaders here, however, were
not so optimistic. They declared
they believed the board would be
wrecked on the same deadlock that
ended President Wilson’s attempt to
settle the railroad problem last win
ter through another trl-partite or
ganization.
Judge Barton, chairman of the
board, declined to comment on this
report. “It takes time for nine men,
representing three different view
points, to agree on anything,” ne
said.
UNAUTHORIZED RAILROAD
STRIKE IS AT STANDSTILL
PHILADELPHIA, June 24.
The unauthorized strike of railroad
ers was practically at a standstill
today despite recommendation by
the president that the labor board
declare an immediate wage award.
COAL SHORTAGE FEARED
IF STRIKE CONTINUES
WASHINGTON, June 24.—The
present unauthorized railroad strikes
threaten many sections of the coun
try with a coal famine next whiter,
officials of the government and ot
the National Coal association here
said today.
ThTe country is already 35,000,-
000 tons of bituminous behind
its normal production, due to the
recent “outlaw” railroad strike and
the mine strike, according to J. D.
A. Morrow, of the National Coal as
sociation.
Government reports show that
production has been rapidly climbing
in the last few weeks, but this up
ward trend will be halted unless cars
can be sent to the mines, officials
predicted.
New England and the northwestern
states would be the chief sufferers
from a winter coal shortage and the
interstate commerce commission has
issued priority orders to meet this
possibility. These priority orders
will lose much of their effect, how
ever, if the railroad strike spreads,
officials here said.
There is sufficient coal to be mined
to supply the country and enough
miners to assure a surplus of coal,
but the coal cannot be mined un
less there are a sufficient number of
cars on hand to move it, Mr. Morrow
said.
“The priority order issued by the
interstate commission on
open top cars, for *the mines will
greatly relieve the situation. Ohio
has shown improvement in the situ
ation* already and as long as the
priority Order is in effect other im
provements can be expected. ,
“Should the present switchman's
strike continue it will greatly hinder
coal production, Especially in the
eastern states.”
Mr. Morrow said that, although
there has been mbre coal mined this
year than last, there was a surplus
stock on hand last year. This sur
plus, he said, has been exhausted.
“Four months of favorable condi
tions and sufficient cars to move the
coal from the mines would easily
make up the deficit of i 35,000,000
tons,” he said.
The switchmen’s strike in the east

HARDING FEARS
: LITTLE DANGER
FROM JOHNSON!
WASHINGTON, June 24 Hiram
Johnson’s sharp criticism of the Chi
cago convention today stood out a$
the only flaw in the fabric of Repub
lican harmony which Warren G«
Harding has been weaving since his
choice as presidential nominee.
Progressive and conservative Re
publicans except the Johnson and
Borah faction have promised sup
port to Hardiug.
Senator Harding so far'has refused
to comment on Senator Johnson’s ut- I
terance that the day will cpme when |
the “people will prevail” and that the '
delegates who were instructed for i
him but deserted him will be punish- !
ed. Republicans here for the most I
part do not believe Senator oJhnson
or Borah will try to ‘lead aftthird
patty. t
Senator Harding has devoted him
self almost exclusively during the
ten days since Jiis nomination to so
lidifying Republican factions. That
he believes is the first job of the
campaign and everything else is
waiting. He believes that Republi
can victory will be easy if the party
is united and his advisors have been
confident since the nofnination that
Senator Harding will unite every
faction.
Harding headquarters ’believe ef
f five harmony can be achieved re
gardless of Senator do
noff believe he can repeat his feat of
1916 although his grip on California
is admitted.
T. C. Atkeson, legislative agent of
the Farmers’ National Grane, which
claims over 2,000,000 members, call
ed on Harding today. He submitted
a memorandum outlining points
which farmers hope to have Hard
ing include in his speech accepting
the Republican nomination.
“Our farmers are conservative in
favor -of a safe and sane course,”
Mr. Atkeson said, following his con
ference with Mr. Harding. We are
opposed to government ownership. 1
have talked with Senator Harding
previously and his views are very
much in accord with those of our
organization.”
PEOPLE WILL RULE IN
TIME, JOHNSON SAYS
SACRAMENTO, Cal., June 24.
Speaking publicly for the first time
since the Republican convention in
Chicago, Senator Hiram W. Johnson
told a few hundred of his home town
people, who greeted him at the
Southern Pacific depot, that he was
not downcast over the result.
Senator Johnson was en route to
his home in San Francisco. In re
sponse to the enthusiastic reception
given him and ttye cries of “speech,”
Senator Johnson told the crowd how
glad he was that California, and
particularly his home city, had giv
en him such a big ovation at the pri
mary presidential preference elec
tion,
“Don’t imagine I’m cast down by
the result ’of the convention,” he
said. “I’m happier tl)an ever be
fore. I started the campaign on a
shoestring and\ when I got through
I had the people of the United
States with me, even though I could
not win the majority of the dele
gates.
“I went into the fight in one
fashion and came <jut in the same
fashion. I made no compromise, but
fought to the last dljch.
“It doesn’t make any difference if
a few politicians sitting in the Black
stone hotel in Chicago said: The peo
ple be damned,’ for the time is dom
ing \vhen the people will come into
their own.
“The future will find me as good
natured and as ful lof fight as ever,
an dft determined that in time to
come* the people shall rule 'instead of
a few men and international bank
ers, sitting in New York.
“Politics is behind me for the
time being. I won’t discuss or deal
with it until I have had a little en
joyment in dear' old California.”
G. Ls Johnson, the senator’s aged
father, was the first to greet him.

SAYS TAFT FORCE ‘
PAID $50,000 TO
MISSOURI ( MEN
y
SEDALIA, Mo., June 24.—Asser
tions that alleged efforts of certain
Missouri Republican leaders to throw
support of the state’s delegation to
a presidential candlate from whose
campaign fund they had. received
money were not new, and that sim
ilar attempts had been made in 1908,
1912 and 1916, were made by Herbert
S. Hadley, former governor, read at
a meeting of Missouri Republicans
here today.
The meeting was called to con
sider testimony given recently in
Washifigton before the senate com
mittee investigating presidential
campaigfi expenditures that Jacob L.
Babler, St. Louis, 'national commit
teeman from Missouri; W. L. Cole,
chairman of the state committee, and
E. L, Morse, Excelsior Springs, a
well-known party worker, received
money from the campaign funds of
some of those seeking the president
ial nomination at Chicafs this month.
Mr. Hadley now holds chair of
law in the University of Colorado.
His letter, written to W. C. Pierce,
of Maryville, one of those active in
calling the meeting here, reads in
part:
“I heartily of your meet
ing and its purpose. I am, however,
surprised that anyone should have
been surprised at the disclosure of
the fact that money was secured by
the leaders of the Morse-Babler
crowd for which they were to deliver
■ the Mjssiuri delegation at the na
tional convention.
“Many of these men have been en
geged in these same practices for
years. In 1908 they received money
(I was told that the amount was
$15,000), to deliver the delegation to
Senator Fairbanks; and then when
they found the sentiment was strong
for Taft they ‘laid down’ on Fair
banks, but kept his money.
“In 1912 they made the fight for
the Taft delegates against Colonel
Roosevelt and I understand at the
time they secured from the Taft or
ganization $5Q,000 for this purpose.
In 1916 they tried to organize and
sell the Missouri delegation to Sen
ator Weeks, as this year they tried
to sell the delegation to Governor
Lowden. It was' common knowledge
in political circles that they were
handling Weeks’ money. My friends
opposed and defeated this crowd in
the tate convention and afterward
I publicly denounced their purpose to
huckster the delegation to Senator
Weeks. Through the publicity thus
inaugurated a number of delegates
who had received and been elected
through Weeks’ money refused to
vote for him and he received -only
slight support from the delegation
“It has been very evident to any
one at all familiar wth Missouri pol
itics that from 1914, when 4 J. L.
Babler was elected chairman of the
state committee, that he and E. L.
Morse have ■worked together On all
party matters and that J/hey have en
deavored to insure their control of
the party organization by the use
of money.” »

Speedy Relief
From Habitual
Constipation
The liver Is the largest end most
Important organ in the body, ana
when the liver refuses to act, it
causes constipation, biliousness,
headache, indigestion, gas, > sour
stomach, bad breath, dysentery,
diarrhoea, pains in back and under
shoulder blades and under ribs on
right side. These symptoms lead to
colds, influenza or other serious
troubles unless corrected imme
diately. *
An inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys, which over
taxes them and causes the blood to
absorb and carry into the system
the impurities that the liver and
kidgeys have failed to eliminate.
When you treat the liver alone,
you treat only a third of your
trouble, and that is why you have
to take purgatives every few
jiights. Calomel or ojher ordinary
laxatives do not go far enough. If
you would treat your kidneys and
blood while treating the liver, you
would put your entire system in
order and freqent purgatives would
then be unnecessary.
Dr. W.’ L. Hitchcock many years
ago recognized these Important
facts, and after much study and
research, compounded What is now
known as Dr. Hitchcock’s Liver,
Kidnev and Blood Powders, three
medicines combined in one. This
