All deny their guilt, but one of them had considerable money, and It la the belief of the police that It may have been obtained from the two men who were killed. The three negroea under grreat ahow the effect* of a terrific light, for they are marked with acratche* and brulaea which may have been Inflicted by the victim* of the tragedy.

They were How ard Porter, Charles Kuchlnskl, Edward Stauffacher, Carlisle Smith and Ed ward Austin. The boys were led to prefer Auburn to other schools largely by the enthu siasm of Ralph Everett, a high school boy of two year* ago, who has spent a year at the Alabama technical school. Six of the high school graduates will enteh the Georgia Tech when It open* In a few weeks.

PEACE DELEGATES FAVOR U, S, PLAN was running over some obstruction. The train was stopped and we backed up and found the bodies of two white men ground almost to pieces." There was nothing about them that would Indicate their Identity. When the train was stopped the negroes who ore under arrest could not be seen, but when the train arrived at Champaign they were raptured. One of the negroes admits he rode on the tender of the en gine Inost of the time, while the other-two were on the platform of the car.

When the police attempted to arrest the three men found on the car they made a desperate resistance ond had to be quelled by force.

Porter,, will be voted upon. Tble pro posal was yesterday approved, prac tlcally unanimously, by the committee of examinations. The Importance of the proposal Itel mainly In the prtnet pie which It establishes rather than In practical application, which may occur seldom. Argentine Republic voted for the propoanl, but maintained her origi nal reaervattons on the subject. It I* not likely that the Austro-Hun garian proposal on obligatory will be heard of again.

Meat High, Teaches the People about Better Food for Less Money One pound of Grape-Nuts contains more nourishment—that the system will absorb—than ten pounds of meat. An experiment was tried by a man who found that by leav ing off meat altogether at breakfast and lunch, and taking in its place four heaping teaspoonfuls of Grape-Nuts with cream he began to gain flesh and strength and before the full pound package was gone had gained four pounds in weight, whereas he had been losing on his meat diet. A gentleman in Baltimore writes; “I was a steady meat eater three times a day for several years. For a long time I steadily ran down, was miserable, and ev erything I ate caused distress. I fell away from 185 pounds to 150. Somebody told me that if I would change my diet and take Grape-Nuts food at two meals in the day, I would improve. I made the experiment and in less than two weeks began to improve very rapidly. I discovered that a few teaspoonfuls of Grape-Nuts with cream would furnish more nourishment than quantities 6f meat. My improvement has continued until now I weigh 195 pounds, which is a gain of about 45 pounds in five months and I feel in magnificent condition.” Grape-Nuts is a crisp, dainty, delicious food, made of select ed parts of wheat and barley, and scientifically treated ii manufacture by moisture, time and heat—-nature’s way—to slowly and perfectly develop the diastase from the grain and transform the starch into a form of sugar in the most per fect manner. The small particles of phosphate of potash found in the certain parts of the cereals are retained, and these elements vitalize and nourish the brain and nerve centers throughout the body. Grape-Nuts is a condensed food, and about four teaspoonfuls with cream is sufficient for the cereal part of a meal. It re quires no cooking or preparation of any kind, and is,ready for immediate use and suited to the laborer, athlete, brain-work er, epciure and invalid.
