Aa trolley car No. »1, of the Wuh-
lngton-Qrant park line, aped down the
grade In Ormond street, near Fraser,
Sunday night shortly before midnight.
Just after leaving Grant park. It atruck
and killed six mules which were hud
dled together In the darknea* on the
track.
In addition to killing the alx mulea,
the front trucka of the car were de
railed and Motorrnan K. L. Gilbert anil
Conductor M. L. Seagravea wero alight,
ly hurt. Motorrnan Gilbert wan bruis
ed on the chin, while Conductor Sea-
gravea waa hurt about the kneea. being
Jerked to the tloor of the car by the
concueaton.
The accident la one of the moat re
markable that haa occurred In Atlanta
In a long while. After the flrat mule
waa atruck and knocked down the front
trucka mounted Ita body and puahed It
along the track for aome distance. Juat
why none of the other mulea could es
cape la Inexplicable. They were atruck
one after another and their bodiea
hurled down a ateep embankment along
which the car waa speeding. Three of
the dead mulea were found on one aide
of the embankment, two were on the
other aide, while the remaining body,

A man who owns a fine coffee
plantation in Jamaica said: “Four
years ago I discovered that coffee
was mining my health, and I quit
and have been using Postum ever
since.”
Experience taught this man
that he could not drink his own
high-grade coffee. Its active drug
—caffeine—irritates the nervous
system, interferes with digestion,
and trouble is sure to follow.
Some folks may take the hint
•nd change to Postum.
It is absolutely free from drugs,
•nd when well made, that is,
boiled lfi minutes, it has a deli
cious taste similar to the mild,
high-grade Javas, with the natural
vital food elements of the field
grains that repair the damage
done by coffee. “There's a Rea.
son.” Read that "little health
classic,” “The Road to Well-
ville,” in pkgs.

and were used by him In hi* work.
They had been graxlng In an old fle|d,
near the scene of the accident, and dur
ing the night climbed up the embank-
tnent to the track. It Is presumed that
the electric headlight of the upproache
Ing cor blinded and frightened the ani
mals nnd that for this reason they were
unable to get out of the way of danger.
Motorrnan Gilbert says he failed to sea
the obstruction on the track until too,
late to stop his car.
The motorrnan, In his 'report of the
accident mode to the street railway of.
(trials, stated that his car was moving
at a rate of only ten miles an hour at
the time the mules were struck.

Reagan, of the Flint circuit, 8afturday

Spalding county to pay Judge E. W.
Hammond, of the city court of Griffin,
for holding the September session at
the old salary of $800 per annum. The

ple adjourned the court.

•mong other reputable newspaper representatives, quoted Rev, C. B, Wil-

that tha Bible haa been the most fruitful source of infidelity in the world, a
statement sines denied by Dr. Wilmer, reaffirms her report of Dr. Whiner's

By ELIZABETH ELLICOT POE
To The Georgian:
Ur. Wilmer did positively make the
statement uscrlbed to him In the story.
took notes on his speech, nnd In
speaking of Bishop Williams* reputed
statement that the "Bible Is the most
fruitful source of Infidelity In the
world." he said:
"I myself will say the same thing and
then I can’t be stopped, because I am
speaking of a member of the Upper
House. I do bsliavs that the Bible has
been the most fruitful source of infi
delity in the world.”
As to the hisses, this was not a part
of my story, but certainly a decided
wave of disapproval swept around the
church at Ur. Wilmer’* remarks, and I
have heard that apeech very much de
nounced by his brother council mem-
Iters, It certainly gave everyone the
impression of an attack on the Divine
Inspiration of the Bible, an emphasis of
the claims of "higher criticism."
Ur. Wilmer certainly did make the
remarks accredited to him.
