THE ATLANTA TRI-WEEKLY JOURNAL. RED CROSS SEEKS INFORMATION ON FORMER SOLDIERS A former soldier, now a patient at a United States public health ' hospital, has requested the home service division of the Atlanta Red Cross bureau through the Boise, Id., Red Cross chapter to locate Ralph S. Gibbs, a former sergeant in the army. The soldier, who has been a patient at various hospitals since January, 1918, claims that his sick ness was caused by an injury sus tained while in line of duty at Camp Mills, N. Y. He was a patient at the camp infirmary at Mineola. The soldier was discharged from the army February 7, 1919, but re tained in the hospital. He states that Sergeant Gibbs was a member of his company at the time he was injured and desires to secure a statement from him as evidence which is required by the war risk insurance bureau in granting com pensation. Sergeant Gibbs is said to be a resident of Atlanta. The Red Cross also has received a letter from the bureau of war risk insurance stating that Jesse Wilson, former private in the Eight Hun dred and Sixth Pioneer infantry, took out Insurance while in the army with Missie Reed, of More head, Miss., as beneficiary. The sol dier died while in the service and the benficiary has not been located. The bureau was informed that Wil son has an uncle, J. M. Wilson, re siding in Atlanta, employed in one of the national bank buildings. In formation concerning Wilson is de sired in order that the bureau may pay the Insurance to the nearest relative of the soldier. Another soldier now under treat ment, at the United States hospital at St. Louis, Mo., is requesting in formation concerning a former lieutenant in the Three Hundred and Twenty-first machine gun battalion under whom he served. The ini tials of the lieutenant are believed to be “S. B.” He is supposed to be living in Atlanta. While in the service the soldier claims that he was stricken several times and was relieved of duty by Lieutenant Haw kins. A certificate from the lieu tenant, sustaining his claims is de sired by the soldier, it being neces sary to secure the compensation re quested of the war risk bureau. The address of Benjamin Frank lin Purcell is wanted by another soldier who must also secure cer tificates from army asociates testi fying to the soundness of claims for compensation he has made. Accord ing to the soldier, Purcell is a school teacher residing in Atlanta or vi cinity. The Red Cross bureau is anxious to secure information. The Red Cross will appreciate informa tion concerning the above persons, sent to Miss Georgia Downing, ex ecutive secretary, at 63 1-2 White hall. Big Rattle Snake Is Run Into Gopher Hole And Burned to Death WAYCROSS, Ga„ Nov. 27.—A rat tlesnake, measuring ten inches around, was killed on the country place of Mr. W. D. O'Quin, a few miles south of this city, several days ago. Mr. J. P. Epting came across the snake while looking after his hogs and ran the reptile into a gopher hole. Te then pushed some leaves into the hole and set fire to them. The next morning when he went back to investigate, he found that the snake had cremated. Mississippi Banker Disappears; May Be Victim of Foul Play MEMPHIS, Tenn., Nov. 27. —O. M. Harril, president of the Bank of Houlka, Houlka, Miss., lumberman, merchant and reputed to be the wealthiest man in Pontotoc county, Mississippi, who has been missing for two weeks, is today believed to have met with foul play. Harril came to Memphis two weeks ago to attend to some business mat ters. Later he wired his wife that he was going to Chicago and would return in three days. That was more than a week ago. Nothing has been heard of him since. Child Burned to Death In Blaze of Leaves DURHAM, N. C., Nov. 27.—Clara, six-year-old daughter of Mrs. C. R. Baucom, living near here, was burned to death yesterday when her clothing became ignited from a fire of leaves the mother was burning in the yard. Mrs. Baucom was seriously burned in an attempt to save the child, but will recover, according to reports from the scene of the accident. Four Boys Fired On SPARTA, Ga., Nov. 27. —Informa- tion has just reached here from Devereux, eight miles west of Sparta, that a young school boy named Scrog gins, son of a farmer, and three ne gro boys, while riding to their homes one mile south of Devereux, were fired upon by a negro hunter and that all four are more or less seri ously injured. A call was sent for the sheriff and a posse to come at once to the scene of the shooting. As our boys ‘"came marching home,” they brought a certain red-blood ed doctrine, and showed us the glory of a perfect body. They will show us how to “keep fit,” even if we have passed middle life and are beyond the athletic stage. For the tired business man, the man who feels the daily grind and the nightly fag, has meager appetite, head aches, nerves unstrung, is gloomy, ending in a soggy brain, try the right way. Get out of bed, open the window, breathe deeply, exercise the army “setting up” exercise or use dumb bells, until in a warm glow.

The thieves first bound and gagged the house servants after they had answered the doorbell, believing their mistress wished entrance, and then, awaiting Mrs. Palmer’s return, seized and gagged her also before stealing jewels she wore, worth $400,000. W 7 ill Make Daring Attempt To Harness Volcanoes as Gigantic Source of Power HONOLULU, T. H. —Gigantic pow er plants, larger than any dreamed of now, capable of distributing volt age for thousands of miles in all di rections, and obtaining a perpetual force from natural sources, may be established wherever active volca noes exist, if the project of Dr. T. A. Jagger, Jr,, in charge of the Kilauea observatory here, proves successful. Backed by the Hawaiian Volcano Research association and several sci entific research societies in the Unit ed States, Dr. Jagger plans to bore deep into the Kilauea crater to utilize the tremendous forces now escaping in gases. The terrific heat thrpwn off from these gases will be concentrated to create electricity enough to supply the entire island group. Vast Volcanic Power Sufficient money to carry the proj ect through to completion has been raised. The experiment is being watched with close interest from all parts of the world where the problem of rapidly shrinking oil supply and other sources of power is becoming increasingly Complex. . Should the plan prove successful—• and there is little doubt that it will, say scientists who have been on the ground and studied the situation— the way will be thrown open for the immediate utilization of the 425 vol canoes of the world. That is, and this is the sole known obstacle to suc cess, unless the unknown powers to be released by Dr. Jagger create such havoc and destruction that they can not be controlled. Aside from power in unlimited quantities, these volcanoes are known to be hourly wasting sufficient car bon, nitrogen, hydrogen and lime to supply the world. All this will be utilized by Dr. Jagger. Will Risk Life These untouched sources of pow er will, when harnessed, produce enough electricity and power to light brilliantly every square mile of the earth’s inhabited surface and to turn every wheel now in operation. This is not the dream of one man, but the careful, studied observations and predictions of the world’s great est volcanologists who recently met here in conference. Dr. Jaggar, be cause of his detailed knowledge of the Kilauea crater, has been chosen to make the first experiment. That he will risk the life of him self and his assistants when the tre mendous forces now held in leash by the mountains are released, he re gards of little moment. There is no fiercer heat than that created by the combined volcanic nitrogen and hy drogen gases. And when this with ering flame is first tapped scientists predict that no man or animal will » j ■ STOMACH 0. K.

Two coal • miners were crushed to death by falling slate in the mine of the Fall Branch Coal company, at Oswego, Tenn., late Friday after noon, according to information reaching Knoxville tonight. The dead: Judge Proffet, of Os wego, and Fanso Denarti, of Wool dridge. Fellow miners, after finding Prof fet’s body, hurried to tell Denarti, who was about 300 feet further in the mine, only to find his body crushed beneath a rock weighing fully three tons. Both men were married and leave families. be able to live within a large radius of its source. This problem, however, is being worked out by Dr. Jaggar, who ex pects to have sufficient apparatus ready to immediately control the gases which he hopes to strike at a depth of 500 feet. . Sure of Success “No one can realize the tremendous practical commercial possibilities of this primal world-manufacturing process,” says Dr. Jaggar. “Like any new and untried project, it brings out skepticism and disbelief, but it’s bound to come, and when it does Hawaii will be the focus of the world’s vision.” Scientists who are interested with Dr. Jaggar are John Brooks Henderson. lamous zoologist and regent of Smithsonian Institution; Dr. H. S. Washington, of Carnegie tute, and Dr. Arnold Romberg, of the University of Hawaii. Most of Dr. Jaggar’s present experiments are being carried on under the support of the United States department of the interior. A JOKE RIAGE PLANK ONLY HIS MAR BY MABEL ABBOTT. POPLAR BLUFF, Mo. —Next time E. E. Penzel, newly-elected state senator, runs for office, he will not promise, even in joke, to get married if the women will elect him. He was too badly scared this time. Penzel is a personable bachelor of 35, with a law office at Poplar Bluff. It was a speech he made at Pied mont, Mo., a few days before elec tion, that made all the trouble. Two Aspirations In introducing him, the chairman jocularly referred to his being a single man. Penzel, not to be abash ed, gallantly assured his audience he had two aspirations in life; one was to go to the Missouri senate, and the other was to acquire a wife. “And if the women will help me in the first one,” he declared, “I will consider the other.” The women voted for Penzel, all right. Meanwhile, reports of the Pied mont speech had found interested readers. The election returns were hardly in, before Penzel began to receive letters from women willing to help him carry out bis contract. At first they came from points near by; then from all over Mis souri; then «-'om othe»* states. Some of the writers used the Leap Year privilege of direct proposal: others delicately indicated that if he would do the proposing he would not be turned down. Day by day his mail increased. “The Joke’s On Me” “The joke’s on me,” Senator Pen zel told me. “You see, every campaign has to take women into consideration now. That’s all right, too, and as it should be. So in making my campaigns, I bought cigars for the men, of course, but I also bought candy for the wom en. “But as for that remark about getting married—l never dreamed of ATTEMPTS TO LOWER AIR MARK UNSUCCESSFUL MINEOLA, N. Y„ Nov. 27.—Six unsuccessful attempts to lower the world’s air speed record over a one kilometer course were made today at Mitchel field by Lieutenant C. C. Mosely in the Verville-Packard plane with which he won the Pulitzer aero nautical trophy Thanksgiving day. The speed attained bv the Ver ville-Packard was 186 miles an hour, as compared to 178 miles an hour made in the trophy event. The rec ord is 192 miles an hour, set last November by Bernard de Romenet, of France. The fastest time for the kilometer today was 11.97 seconds Army air service observers, after the flights, predicted the Verville- Packard’s speed would be in?reased by carburetor adjustments. They re marked that the .ground speed of the engine decreased after the “take off.” The Verville-Packard, it was an nounced. will be shipped to McCook field, Dayton, 0., overhauled and sent in new trials. Later the ma chine will be taken to the army fly ing field at San Diego, Cal. Flying the Thomas-Morse plane, with which he took second place in the Pulitzer trophy race, Captain Harold Hartney attained a speed over the one kilometer course of 171 1-4 miles per hour, considered by army officers an exceptional per formance for the so-called “stock military” plane. Captain Hartney’s average speed in the trophy race was 170 1-4 miles per hour. The Thomas-Morse, flown later by Captain St. Clair Street, was bank ed vertically on a turn and lost part of its wings and fuselage in the wind. Captain Street negotiated safely a forced landing at Curtiss field, a mile away. Ward Greene Has Short Story m December Issue Os “Woman’s World” Ward Greene, of The Atlanta Jour nal’s staff, has a short story in the December issue of the Woman’s World, and in the last few weeks has sold other stories to Telling Tales and to Snappy Stories. A short story, like a person, is in teresting because of some indefinable thing that might be called charm, though that is an empty-sounding word. Without it a yarn will bore you, though the plot is unusual, the structure good (or seemingly so), and the words well chosen. It is this quality that is to be found in each of Ward Greene’s sto ries, just as it is a characteristic of the feature articles he writes for The Journal. It is what promises him success in short story writing. His story in the Woman's World is a Christmas story, with the set ting a newspaper office and the theme the “letters to Santa Claus,” which are annual features of many large dailies. One of his other sto ries, not yet published, has a south ern farmer boy for the principal character. The third, to appear in Telling Tales, has a hero in the per son of an old Georgia fiddler. In the last few months short sto ries by members of The Journal staff have appeared in five different maga zines. On the book page of The Journal’s Sunday Magazine a series of brief articles devoted largely to southern writers have appeared recently. They bring out the fact that a Macon woman has published a short story and a serial recently in The Saturday Evening Post; that a Savannah wom an is the author of two books pub lished by the Century company, each of which is a best seller; that an At lanta doctor has contributed a se ries of stories to Scribner’s; that, in fact, much literary work of sound quality is being done in Georgia. “Food, Feed, Fertility First” Campaign Being Planned in Thomas THOMASVILLE, Ga., Nov. 27.—A campaign for “food, feed and fer tility first” has been instituted by the Southwest Georgia Development association, and the banks of Thom as county are co-operating in the movement. The banks that endorse this pro gram and commend it are the Citi zens Bank and Trust company, the Oglethorpe Trust and Savings com pany, the Bank of Thomasville and the People’s Savings Bank of Thom asville, the Bank of Ochlocknee, the Farmers and Merchants Bank of Coolidge, the Commercial Bank of Metcalfe, the Farmers Bank of Bos ton, the Bank of Boston and the Bank of Meigs. In the circular issued a scale of crops is laid out for next year, both for food and for feed for stock and also conditions for handling live stock and realizing the best profit from it. This co-operation of the banks with the farmers is expected to work out a plan that will make conditions another year different from those that has made this sea son a disastrous on£ for the farmer in many respects. Negro Boy Scalded To Death in Kettle Os Boiling Syrup VALDOSTA, Ga., Nov. 27.—An un usual tragedy was reported from the Golden section of Brooks county yesterday.

Miss Augusta Howard Is Convicted at Columbus Os Unlawful Shooting COLUMBUS, Ga., Nov. 27. —Miss Augusta Howard, convicted 'for un lawful shooting in connection with the injury of Willie Lee, a little boy, who was' plucking magnolia’s from the former’s yard last May, and given a sentence of from one to two years in the pen by Judge Humphries, in the Muscogee superior court. . has made bond in the sum of $2,000, following an application for a new trial, and Judge Humph ries will hear the case January 15, next. Miss Howard, who is a member of one of the most prominent families in this section, was under bond of $2,000 before her trial, and it is understood the same bondsmen signed the new paper. Under a grand jury indict ment. she was tried on a charge of assault with intent to murder, but the verdict of the jury yesterday was for unlawful shooting, a much less serious offense. The defendant was not affected in the least, apparently, by the verdict of the jury or sentence of the court. When Judge Humphries asked if she had anything to say, she promptly answered in the affirmative, and at once declared she was not guilty and that her attorney wanted to ask for a new trial. On just what grounds the new trial is to be re quested hasn’t been learned as yet, and may not be until the hearing in J a n u ary. Biggest Bootlegger On Record Captured In Chattanooga, Tenn.

This is one of three similar cases which have occurred here within a short period. CASTOR I/ 5 For Infants and Children nUse For Over 30 yeas Always bears the Signature of BILL FOR $47.95 PRESENTED U. S. ' FOR SHIP HINGE ■ 1 NEW YORK. Nov. 27.—Harold F. Haines, a junior examiner for the . emergency fleet corporation, testi fied today in the congressional in vestigation of. the shipping board here. He said the government was spend-! ing $5,000,000 a month for repairsj on shipping board vessels at the! present time. This was based, h«i testified, on conditions in the port of New York. Last January, he said, a govern ment vessel repaired by Cramps, of Philadelphia, was considered unsea worthy by its <;rew which signed a sealed statement and* left it behind to be opened in event anything hap pened to the ship. The ship, he said, was disabled 400 miles out. He did not know what became of the sealed statement. Haines also testified that a hinge on the steamer Lake On tario cost 50 cents to repair, and that a bill for $47.95 was submitted by the concern which did the work. Ship chandlers at Ne wYork, Bal timore and Norfolk, he said, made 33 1-3 to 75 per cent on board pur chases. He testified that 25 men had been Sent aboard a ship in the same port and remained from 7:30 a. m. Monday to the same hour the following Mon day and were allowed apy for thirty-nine hours a day. In New Yale, he said, twelve carpenters were put to work at one time in a wire less room of a ship which measured 4x4 feet. Haines also testified to investigat ing gifts of watches and stock to shipping board employes. An audi tor, he added, was paid $5 to assist in preparing a bill which he would have passed upon in the ordinary dis charge of his duties. Investigating resulted in the auditor being re moved, he said. Short deliveries and overcharges for beef furnished to the Emergency Fleet ships also was alleged by Haines. He said 24 cents a pound was paid for 11-cent beef. Payment of a commission of SI,OOO on an order of $4,000 to a ship cap tain at Portland, Oregon, • also was testified to by Haines. The name of the ship was not given. The com mission, jhe said, was paid by the Portland branch of a Boston ship supply firm. Discovery of silverware marked “U. S. Shipping Board” in a hotel at Yokohama, and street venders sell ing shipping board linen at La Pal lice, also was testified to by Haines. He said he did not know whether these matters had been investigated. Haines said that within the last few weeks improved systems of check ing supplies and repairs and making purchases for shipping board vessels had been Installed and would soon be fully operative, Robert I. Lag gern, director of the eastern division of supplies and sales, with head quarters in Philadelphia, said that in his department alone $95,000 had been cut off the payroll in the last two months ‘‘by weeding out the in efficients.” The hearings wer ead journed until Monday. • The name of Norman R. Hamilton, collector of the port of Norfolk, Va., today was again mentioned in the testimony. Haines said that while in Norfolk he had been advised that if his in quiries included Mr. Hamilton, it would be well for him to “lay oft.” His informant said, Haines testified, that Mr. Hamilton was the “closest man in Virginia to President Wil son.” He addde that he understood the man talking to him was related by marriage to Mr. Hamilton. Haines said the alleged warning did not de ter him from continuing his work, but he adde it was not complete by him. D’Annunzio Protests Boundary Settlements TRIESTE, Nov. 26. (By the Asso ciated Press.) —Objection tb Italy and .Tugo-Slavia fixing the boundaries of Fiume without the consent of that city, and “contrary to the fundamen tal principles of the international right of self-determination,” has been sent in a note to the Italian govern ment through General Caviglia by Captain Gabriele d’Annunzio. "We observe also,” says the note, “you use expressions in your note to us such as ‘the kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes,’ or ‘Jugo-Slavs.’ We have not recognized the exist ence of such a state. There is an ob jection to calling the territory about this city the ‘state of Fiume,’ and the name ‘ltalian regency of Quarnero’ is preferred.” A copy of the constitution of this state, bearing the autograph of Cap tain d’Annunzio, was handed to Gen eral Caviglia with the note.
