HOSPITALS DEPRIVED DF 53D.000 THROUGH GOV. DORSEY'S VETO The Scottish Rite Home for Crip pled Children, a charitable institu tion that has cured the deformities of more than 1,000 Georgia children, loses the sum of $5,000, and the Grady hospital of Atlanta loses the sum of $25,000, as the result of the action of Governor Dorsey in vetoing the bill which would have exempted >oth these Institutions from paying he inheritance tax on bequests of ie late Mr. Albert Steiner. Announcement Thursday that the overnor has vetoed the bill, which as passed unanimously by both ranches of the. general assembly, .anie as a surprise and a shock to Atlanta Masons and to city officials and others interested in the Grady .lospital. “1 was perfectly dumfounded this ■ norning when I heard that Governor vetoed the amendment,” ~ p I'. ' °£ res t. Adair, a leading patron ot the Scottish Rite Home. "I could not believe this was true until I caiied up the governor’s office over the telephone and was informed that ae had vetoed the amendment.” Mr. Adair added that he was sure Masons throghout the state will be shocked by the governor’s action, as , as hundreds of Georgia families who have had their children and their neighbors children cured in the Scottish Rite Home. The governor vetoed the bill on the ground that it was unconstitu tional, although the question of its constitutionality previously had been (jiscussed in the house and senate committees,xand both committees, on the strength of an opinion by City Attorney James L. May son, had agreed the bill was constitutional and had approved it. Hunt Buried Treasure With “Magic” Invention That Points Out Gold , OTTAM A, Canada.—Pinning their faith on the powers of a newly-in vented device for the detection of gold deposits. Andrew Cullins, a well known prospector of Haileybury, Can a“a ' an< l the Rev. Father Theriault, of the same town, plan a trip to the South Pacific islands to search for buried treasure, according to a joint statement they made recently in Ottawa. It was said that the trip was be ing financed by a New York capi talist, whose name was not dis closed, and the fortune seekers were to confer with him in this city be fore setting off on the long jaunt. A test of the machine was said to have been made recently in Toronto ,by hiding gold coins in a house, and the device indicated the presence of the money. According to the report of friends of Mr. Cullins, the invention, if it proves successful, will be of more value in a search such as is planned than in indicating gold locations in the mining districts, because in searching for gold-bearing veins it will not determine the quantities or depth at which the metal would be found, and therefore the operators would not know whether it would be in sufficient quantities to justify de velopment. This is given as the reason of the inventor in searching for, hidden treasure from foundered ships or buried by pirates in the South Sea islands.

ELECTION WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.—hTe fed eral woman suffrage amendment is intended to extend the franchise to all women in teh state, local and federal elections. Solicitor General Frierson said today. “Under the amendment, all states are under an obligation to permit women to vote in all elections, whether local or national,” Frierson said in an informal ruling. “If any state attemps to restrict the franchise of women in any par ticular, the question will at once be put to a test as to whether that state is violating he federal con stitution. The final answer to the question will rest with the supreme court.” Th possibility of some states set ting up special qualifications to pre vent women from voting was called to the attention of officials here. They said that the qualifications would have, to apply to men and women alike if they were not to violate the new nineteenth amendment. Man’s Body Found In Oil Tank Car Shipped From Atlanta The dead body of an unidentified white man has been discovered in an oil tank car which arrived in Texas, Wednesday, shipped from Atlanta about a week ago. This information was contained in a telegram received by the' au thorities here from the police in Dallas Thursday. The telegram indicates that there were no marks of identification, or papers on the body, that death had occurred several days reyious to the arrival of the car, and that the original seals under which the car was shipped from here were un broken, indicating that it had not been opened while en route. The car contained no oil. The number of the car was con tained in the telegram, and Atlanta police are now endeavoring to as certain who shipped it. The au thorities >state that several men have been reported missing from Atlanta during the past thirty days, with no trace of them elsewhere. MAN IS SUPPOESD TO BE J. E. BUFKIN, OF TEXAS DALLAS, Tex., Aug. 19. —Mystery surounds the death of a man sup posed to be J. E. Bufflin, son of a prominent farmer near Goldthwaite, Tex., whose body was found today in a tank car. The car had come to Efforts to Mislead Public On Illegal Cigarette Taxes Are Refuted by Records Those who for the past few days have been watching with interest the developments in the situation caused by the collection of the illegal cigarette tobacco tax by Governor Dorsey's special tax investigators and the subsequent decision to re fund 70 per cent of the amount paid by the merchants, on Thursday di rected their attention to the efforts being made in certain quarters to mislead the public as to the total amount collected in these cigarette tobacco taxes. The records at the state capitol show that the special tax investiga tors appointed on the recommenda tion of Governor Dorsey collected ap proximately $60,000 in these cigarette tobacco taxes. That they collected this tax from merchants in the coun ties, and did not collect it in the large cities of the state. Also that they received 20 per cent commis sion on all cigarette tobacco taxes they collected, neeting them a total of approximately $12,000. In an effort to minimize the ef fect of the disclosures relative to the collection of the illegal tax, the statement has been made repeatedly in certain quarters that only $8,125 was collected in illegal cigarette tobacco taxes. $8,125 Was Refunded As a matter of fact and official record, $8,125 has been refunded to merchants who have thus far made the proper affidavits and filed them at the state capitol. As fast as these affidavits are filed and'checked by the official records, the governor draws warrants refunding to the merchants a sum which in some cases repre sents 70 to 80 per cent of the amount they paid to the special tax investigators, and in some cases 100 per cent of the amount so paid. If the special tax investigators, wjio received 20 per cent commission, and the county tax collectors, who re ceived another 10 per cent commis sion, refund these commissions, then the merchants receive the full amount they paid in illegal cigarette tobacco taxes. Otherwise they get only a percentage of what they paid. The collection of the, cigarette to bacco tax by means of the special tax investigators was decided upon by the governor in contravention of the opinion of Comptroller General Wright and it was upon the ruling of the comptroller general that the decision to make refunds was finally reached. The comptroller general ruled that merchants selling ciga rette tobacco were not liable for the tax if they had not sold or given away cigarette papers. All merchants who paid the tax and who neither sold nor gave away cigarette papers may get a refund of at least 70 per cent by making the proper affidavit and filing same with the comptroller general. Collectors Received S2B 000 The special tax investigators, ac cording to the official records, re ceived upwards of $28,000 in com missions on cigarette tobacco taxes and other special taxes collected by them during the year 1919. They turned into the state treasury a to tal of $100,115.08 which represented 70 per cent of the total amount they collected. They deducted their own 20 per cent commissions and the 10 per cent commissions paid the county tax collectors and then sent the remainder to the state treasury. This $100,115.08 represented not only cigarette tobacco taxes, but also special taxes of various kinds which it was claimed were due for seven years prior to 1919. Peanut Men Urged To Take Good Care Os This Year’s Crop S. W. Hiatt, field agent for the Southeastern Peanut association, has issued a circular letter to peanut growers throughout the state, en {Yvju-aging them to take particular carT of this year’s peanut crop. He predicts that good prices will pre vail this season, and warns against careless handling of the peanut. The importance of harvesting properly was emphasized by Mr. Hiatt, who says: “A little extra care an dexpense at harvest will mean considerable extra profit at market ing time. Business men as well as farmers would be interested in see ing that this crop is well taken care of, since in many sections the money realized from this crop will mean a profit or loss to business, as well as farming interests. Treat the peanut crop as well as you do cotton and other crops, and it will pay fully as well.” Mr. Hiatt also advised that the peanut raisers keep in touch with the county agents and with the state director of extension work, as well as with the association represented by him. so that they may get first hand information to assist them in their problems. Dallas as an empty from Atlanta, Ga. The car remained in the yards at Longview, Tex., two days and arriv ed in Dallas last night. The body was found when workmen unscrewed the tank cap preparatory to filling the car. Two large bruises on the head indicated, according to the po lice, that the man either was hit on the ehad and thrown into the tank car, or was overcome by gases and fell into it. MERCHANTS IN COVINGTON HIT < BY ILLEGAL TAX The Journal is in receipt of a let ter from S. C. Steadman, a well known merchant of Covington, Ga., in which he tells how Governor Dor sey’s special tax investigators col lected about $2,000 from Covington merchants in illegal tobacco taxes Mr. Steadman declares that repeated letters to the governor have not even received the courtesy of a reply. He declares that he has made a de mand upon the state for a refund, but has thus far not received a cent. Mr. Steadman’s letter follows: COVINGTON, Ga.. Aug. 19. Editor, Atlanta Journal: Hav ing noticed the controversy in progress about the collection of an illegal tax on cigarette to bacco from people who were not subject to same, I desire to en ter a protest against the efforts that the Atlanta Constitution is making to becloud the issue. A special collector, -who said he was working under the in struction of Governor Hugh M. Dorsey, was in Covington last December collecting taxes in such sums as he could scare merchants into paying. From me he colected $76.75; from Nel son Brothers, $176.75; from Fow ler Brothers company, $101.75, and various amounts from other Newton county merchants. The collector, J. R. Roberts, informed me that it was a spe cial tax due on the sale of cigarette tobacco and leaves and threatened me with prosecution if I refused to pay same. I would not pay him, but turned the amount over to the tax col lector of Newton county undei protest. At no time did Mr. Roberts state that the amount was collected on back occupation tax. Hearing that the money would be returned if I would execute an affidavit prepared for that purpose, I did so, but have heard nothing from the state. Three letters written to Gov ernor Dorsey by me have not been treated with the courtesy of a reply. I do not feel that I should be expected to pay the price of the ignorance of the governor and of the attorney general, and am of the opinion that the money should be re funded 100 cents on the dollar. There is much dissatisfaction among the merchants of New ton county, none of whom have received a refund, so far as I know, despite the fact that affi davits have been executed, de manding the return of about $2,- 000. Taxes were collected from merchants who had never given ■iway or sold a cigarette paper, and who have refused to deal in cigarettes. A committee of New ton county merchants took the matter up with the governor in person and were told that the state needed the money. Why should we be required to finance the state in violation of the law? You are at liberty to publish this letter, if you see proper, and I will gladly back up any state ment contained herein. Very truly yours. S. C. STEADMAN, Merchant. Foil Bolsheviki Plot To Blow Up Military Quarters in Warsaw WARSAW. (Associated Press.) A plot, believed to have been of Com munist origin and designed to blow up general arfy headquarters, has been discovered in Warsaw. Many persons have been arrested and great quantities of arms and ammunition confiscated in the old Russian cathe dral, which is situated just across the street from the army offices. The arms were found in the base ment of the church. Here also was discovered a tunnel, nearly complete, which was being dug under the street toward army headquarters. The finding of the tunnel and the arms came as a result of sentries at headquarters during the night hear ing the thump of steel against the earth beneath their feet. Headquarters is only 100 feet from the cathedral, which stands in the center of the city of Warsaw. It was built by the Russians. Since the Germans left Warsaw the cathedral has been used as a garrison as well as for all military masses and fu nerals. A number of Communists had been arrested during the last few days. In their possession were found com plete plans of the city, with govern ment buildings marked in red ink. Since the finding of the arms and the tunnel hundreds of arrests have been made. Lightning Kills Two As Preacher Asks if All Are Ready to Die LAPORTE, Ind.—“lf lightning should strike this tent tonight how many would be ready for it?” the Rev. John Timber, evangelist, of Jackson, Mich., asked a congregation of Free Methodists crowding a tent at Springville here last night. Out side a storm was threatening. A few moments later a bolt of lightning entered the canvas top, killed two ministers on the platform, burned the Rev. Mr. Timber danger ously and knocked down many of the worshipers. The dead: ■ The Rev. Henry Lenz, presiding elder, Belvidere, 111. The Rev. L. W. Huston, field agent of the Evansville, Wisconsin, semi nary. Besides Mr. Timber another minis ter and two women whose names have not been ascertained, were seri ously burned. * At 97 She Hopes to Vote for President POUGHKEEPSIE. Mrs. Rachel Haight has lived ninety-seven years, but it has not dimmed her interest in men and affairs, and more than anything else she wants to live a few months longer in order that she may vote for the president of the United States. She is not sure of her politics, but she. avidly reads everything about the character of the two candidates because, she says, she feels keenly her responsibility in serving the best interests of her country, and will vote for the “best man.” Mrs. Haight was one of the first suffragists in the country, and when New York state granted the fran chise to women she was the first woman voter at the poll, arriving shortly after sunrise. And since then she has lived with the hope of being able to help choose a pres ident before she dies. At seventy-four years of age she took her first railroad ride, and now she is anxious to make a flight in an airplane. She has reared fifteen children—at a time, too, when bring ing up a family included not only the usual duties of present-day mothers, but weaving the cloth, making the garments, knitting the stockings, etc. Mrs. Haight wove all the linen for her trousseau, her only luxury being a “boughten” gown for the ceremony. Her wed ding journey was made on horse back. Many readers of The Tri-Weekly Journal ate getting their paper with out cost by sending in four subscrip tions from their neighbors. You can do it, too.

Uses His Feet Like Hands PRAGUE. —This little Bohemian boy, named Frantik, is said to have the handiest pair of feet in the world. Born without arms, his training in the school conducted by Dr. Bakule at Prague, Czecho slovakia, has enabled him to make his feet do practically everything a normal person does with his hands. The picture shows him drinking from a cup held to his lips by his foot. The Baltule school, developed since the war, is one of the most remarkable rehabilitation schools in the world. It is supported by the Junior Red Cross of America. Exiled Russian Generals, Nobles and Princesses Run Taxis, Dairies, Etc. PARlS.—General Nicolaieff, form erly an artillery officer in the Rus sian army, drives a lory in the streets of Paris. Colonel Doroschewik, his compan ion in arms, with several other ex officers, runs a motor repair shop. Count Paul Ignatieff and his moth er, who was Princes Mestchersky, do their own milking on a model dairy farm. They are making a success of it at St. Cloud. Prince Lyszgeynski and Captain Thoe, of the imperial guard, are clerks in a Paris bank. Colonel. Skouratoff grows salad, salad greens and mushrooms on a small patch of grounds at St. Ger main, from which, by diging and tying up lettuce leaves behind the earns enough to live on. On a larger scale, Prince Gouda cheff, former ambasador to tho Spanish court; Prince Dadeshkilian and others have turned farmers. Prince Boris and his princess are conducting a sucessful business as household decorators and painters, and in Paris in these days one never knows but that one’s taxi driver may be a count or captain of, Rus sia’s ancient regime. The history of emigres of the French revolution in every detail is being repeated, and, as French aris tocrats at the end of the eighteenth century were forced to become schoolmasters and cobblers in Eng land and Germany, so are the Rus sians now in France.

With eleven events finished and only fourteen, including the decath lon, the modern pentathlon and mara thon remaining to be run, the Ameri cans have amassed a total up to date of 101 out of a possible 242 points. The rest of the points are so widely distributed that, even if the Ameri cans make only a fair showing in the remaining events, they appear to have a great advantage over all opponents. There were only two final events scheduled for today, these being the hammer throw and the 1,500 meter race. Americans have qualified in these and have excellent chances of adding a number of points to the team’s total. The day’s program also included elimination heats in the 400-meter race, the pple vault, the 10,000-meter run, the '2OO-meter dash and the hop, step and jump. Huge Snake Escapes On Ship and Drives Pilot From the Wheel NEW'YORK. —How a huge python took possession of the British steam ship Bolton Castle for a brief period during her recent trip from Singa pore to Victoria, British Columbia, was related by officers and pas sengers of the vessel on her arrival at the Canadian port. Three of these monster serpents were being shipped to the Bronx Zoo in this city, and in some unaccounta ble manner one of them managed to make its escape. The whereabouts of the snake was a matter of anx ious conjecture among the crew for a couple of days, until in the early hours of the third day out the quar termaster was precipitately driven from his post at the wheel by the appearance of the monster in the pilot house doorway. The vessel was allowed to drift for a couple of hours, until, .armed with every available weapon, some mem bers of the crew undertook a stealthy raid, arriving just in time to see the snake leave the pilot house and glide into the sea. The creature was said to measure thirty feet in length. 1,000,000 Pounds of' Sugar Lost in River NEW YORK.—Nearly 1,000,000 pounds of refined sugar, destined to relieve a shortage in the west and worth $320,000, sweetened the waters of the East river yesterday off the piers of the National Sugar Refin ing company at Pidgeon and Front streets, Long Island City. The sugar, valued at 22 cents a pound wholesale, was loaded in thirteen freight cars on a float for transfer to a Brooklyn shipping point. The float was being towed from the sugar company piers when it struck a rock, the towing hawser broke and the float stuck its nose under the water. Four of the cars slid off into deep water. The nine others started to dive in, but did not go entirely under the surface. Enough water was shipped to ruin the cargo.

The farm of Count Paul Iznatieff and his mother Is typical of the energy the less fortunate are putting into the work of keeping their heads above wated. They had just enough money to lease the farm and convert it on model lines. In Russia, on vast estates, they had made a specialty of dairy farming and the manu facture of Swiss cheese, and so they were no novices. The difference now is that they have to do the work themselves. Their dairy is certainly a credit to them. Everywhere it is kept spot less and in Paris and its neighbor hood ' milk and cheese from the ‘Feme du Chateau de la Valadiere” are becoming famous. What few work people there are to help in the milking and butter <And cheese jnaking- are treated as companions and not as employes. All meals are taken together, for Count Phul and his mother believe in equality, though not in Bol shevism. Like them, all the other Russian exiles working in France are proud of their employment, and that they are skilled enough as bookkeepers to get and keep their jobs. Invariably they practice discretion. Princess; Mestchersky when asked her opinion of events in Russia and Poland replied: “Hehe, monsieur, we we know no politics.

Fill Your Blood With Iron If You Want To Be Strong WITH PLENTY OF ENERGY AND POWER Says Physician Explains How Organic Iron Like Nuxatea Often Increases the Strength of Weak, Nervous, Run-down People In Two Weeks’ Time. You cannot expect to forge ahead in hie with plenty «f energy and power if your blood is thin and watery any more than you can hope to run an automobile on water instead of gasolene. It takes pure, red blood —rich in iron—to keep the human machine working right. Without «ron your every action lacks power, your red blood corpuscles die by millions, the strength goes from your body and you drop among the weaklings and failures. “But when such men and women supply the right kind of iron to their blood, a most surprising change often takes place, says Dr. John J. Van Horne, formerly Med ical Inspector and Clinical Physician on the Board of Health of New. York City. The weak, colorless blood which had been mov ing sluggishly in the veins becomes rich and red and courses through the body, build ing healthy tissue, giving renewed force and increased strength. Without this rich, red blood with plenty of iron in it, there can be no physical perfection or force to carry on one’s work. Yet to take the wrong kind of iron may prove worse than useless just as the wrong sort of food will often fail to give the proper nourishment. Organic iron —.Nuxated Iron —by enriching the blood and creating new blood cells, strengthens the nerves, rebuilds the muscles and helps instill the whole system with fresh vigor and en durance whether the person be young or old. I strongly advise every man or wo man who is fagged out by worry, work and other strains to build up strength, and What is the Condition of Your Blood Supply? HijjMy Important to ix.eep It Frees From impurities. Did you know that ninety per cent of all human ailments depend upon the condition of your blood? You should recognize the impor tance, therefore, of very promptly cleansing out the system, and keeping the blood supply pure and robust. ITCH-ECZEMA IS (Alto cßiiod Tetter, Silt Rheum. Pruritus.

Cedsfea, Mo. pQOf M SOUTH GEORGIA SOIL PRODUCES FINE PASTURAGE THOMASVILLE, Ga„ Aug. .19.—- That south Georgia soil is capable of growing as fine pasturage as can be seen in any sections of the coun try which have long been noted for their pasturage, and that Thomas county has succeeded in cultivating more than two hundred acres of beautiful grassland right in the im mediate vicinity of Thomasville was effectively demonstrated to more than two hundred farmers and stock raisers who visited here Tuesday and were shown over these lands. Representatives were present from forty-four counties in the state and from the neighboring counties of Georgia and Alabama, many coming in cars and more than a hundred on the various trains. The visitors were first taken to the D. J. Renfroe place on the Pavo road, just beyond the corporate lim its of the town, and there they were shown in detail everything pertain ing to pasturage and the methods ot cultivation employed in using the natural growth and introducing other grasses which have flourished as though “to the manner born,” and the result has been an all the year round pasturage for the stock. Mr. Renfroe has been most successful in his stock raising and has large ex perience with cattle, hogs and sheep, all of which h'ave brought him in fine returns. From Mr. Renfroe’ the crowd went to the farm of E. F. Mack, •on the opposite side of town, where the famous Hereford herd of Mr- Mack is kept and where “Bonnie J.” the great International champion, holds sway as lord of all he sur veys. That Bonnie J. was “born and bred” right on these same pasturages of Thomas county with which Mr. Mack and others have so success fully experimented was a sufficient advertisement of their value to those who gazed at the champion and the members pf his herd. After viewing the stock the mem bers of the'party were served a de lightful picnic luncheon by a num ber of the ladies of Thomasville. Talks were made by Messrs. Mack and Renfroe detailing the process of making pasturages from < the combi nation of native and other grasses and explaining manv things in re gard to their care. The meeting was a great success and will doubtless prove an incentive to stock raising in Georgia. GAIiI.STOrrS TROUBLES A new booklet written by Dr. E. E.
