GRAHfI JURY GETS
THE GW CASE

Dr. Goldsmith Testifies in the
Famous Shooting. Telling of
Eugene’s Wounds.
Continued From Page One,
barracks she was merely detained for
the night, but at the jail she must i
spend an indefinite period behind ths
bars. For the first time she tasted of
prison food.
Mrs. Grace Goes
To Philadelphia.
Atlanta awoke on the morning of
March 20 to find that Mrs. Grace had
obtained bond during the night, and
had not only left the jail, but had gone'
beyond the limits of the city and state, i
Accusers declared that she had fled ;
from the hand of justice: that she
would never return for trial. Mrs. I
Grace had gone to Philadelphia, het old
home, to attend to some business af
fairs. and with her went James A.
Branch, her attorney, and three Atlanta
newspaper men
During her four days’ absence excite
ment over the case in Atlanta grew
stronger, and when she returned one
Sunday night her reception equalled
and surpassed that given any president
of the T’nited States who ever visited
A.tlanta. Thousands of morbidly curious
n°ople flocked to the Terminal station
, and slipped past guards to the tracks to
gain a glimpse of the woman who had
occupied the limelight for weeks.
She was hurried to the Kimball,
where she obtained rooms and remained
there several days under the care of a
trained nu: se. As soon as her condition
became better she was moved to a pri
vate residence in West End, where she
remained until her preliminary hearing
three weeks ago.
Sent to the Tower
To Await Indictment.
Justice James B. Ridley, presiding at
the hearing, bound- her over to await
the action of the grand jury. Her bond
was assessed at $7,500, and she has
spent the time since in the Tower, in
stead of making the bond. When the
grfend Jun'- took action today Mrs. Grace
had completed . her fifth week in the
jail.
Tomorrow will mark the end of the
ninth week since the tragedy. When
Grace was. discovered in his room at
their Eleventh street home, wounded to
death as it was then thought, physi
cians gave him only a short while to
live. As he seemed to improve day by
day his term of life was extended to ten
days or two weeks. When that time
was out his life's term was again ex
tended. and so on until now, he has
lived almost nine weeks since being
shot .and is reported in a better condi
tion than at any time since/receiving i
the wound. Physicians say now that
he may live several months longer, or
even recover, except that he can never i
walk again.

Endangered.
NEW ORLEANS. May 6.—Twen
ty-five persons are reported to
have been drowned in Point Coupe
parish today when the levee gave
way before th e flood-swollen Mis
sissippi. Several bodies have been
recovered.
i NEW ORLEANS, May 6.—A heavy
rain which fell Sunday increased the
danger of breaks in the Mississippi lev
ees today. At Baton Rouge, where the
situation is desperate, hundreds of ad
ditional workers were sent to the lev
ees to aid in the fight to hold them
against the rushing water. It was
feared that the storm water, when it
reached the river, would he more than
the weakened dikes could withstand,
and they would give way. At Mellville
it is feared breaks may occur.
Flood water from the Torras break
has reached Morgansea. Women and
children were rushed to places of safe
ty. The town is partially inundated
and the flood is expected to do heavy
damage. It is.not believed that the
levees there will go out.
Heavy loss of life is feared in the
Atchafalaya country as a result of the
Torras break. Many people there have
refused to leave their homes; In some
places people tried to escape after the
water reached their doors. A number
of negroes have been drowned.
A fleet of rescue boats under orders
of the United States engineers were
started for this section today in an
effort to rescue those imperiled.

Insurgents in the Big Confer
ence Say Bishops Are Too
Conservative.
MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.. May 6.—ln-
I surgency has broken out among the
' delegates to the general conference of
the Methodist Episcopal church, now
in session here. The conference is di
vided between progressives and con
servatives, and a. clash between them
on most ofrthe important matters that
are to come up for discussion is an
ticipated by those who have watched
1 ’he church sessions in the past. The
address of the bishops which, accord-
I ing to the conservatives, is a daring
I and progressive document, dealing with
i i number of questions in church af
fairs that have been troublesome in
the past, is regarded by the progres
-iv .- as conservative almost to the
■ point of being reactionary. With this
" ide difference of opinion already de
i veloped, it is expected that a clash will
| ■ ome when the matter of church disci
j pline is up for a vote and when other
matters ate brought before the body.
j Among the questions expected to
j elicit warm discussion is the matter
of church publications. There are
nearly a dozen papers sanctioned by
the church A plan to consolidate
some and eliminate others, to reduce
| the number of publications to four,
with t uniform subscription price of
$1.51,'. has been offered in a resolution
now before the conference.
Another question on which the line
up is expected to show is the question
of the retiring of . shops. It has been
re. ommended ’ha; age of retiring be
reduced over that at present fixed, and
that bishops of 75 vears of age be com
pelled to quit active work,

Chicago Teamsters
May Enter Big St rike i
Os Freight Handlers
CHICAGO, May 6.—With 1,000 strike
breakers on hand and 3,000 others com- i
ing during the day, the railroads today
prepared to ’fight the strike of the
freight handlers here which is expected
to involve the teamsters beforo-'night.
The strikers at a mass meeting today
prepared a plea to the teamsters to join
the walkout.
While the action of the teamsters
will take is problematical, officers of
the union have said it would be impos
sible for the strike to continue without
the teamsters becoming involved. Al
ready the teamsters have asserted that
they would refuse to back their wagons
up to freight houses under police pro
tection and as 500 officers under special
command of Assistant Chief Schuetler
have been detailed to guard 3fi freight
houses it is believed a new tangle will
develop.
Express and transfer companies ad
mit their men have already considered
the question of delivering freight to the
non-union men and in some cases have
notified them that no freight will be de
livered. The railroad offices assert that
they will refuse to treat with the strik
ers. The men. they say. went out with
out notice and they feel under no obli
gation to treat with them. They have
enough men here now. they assert, to
handle perishable freight, and they ex
pect to have enough by tomorrow or
Wednesday to take care of all tl>“
freight business.
Po'ice assignees to the freight houses
have been ordered to prevent any dis
orders.

DON'T PULL OUT
THE GRAY HAIRS
A Few Applications of a Simple
Remedy Will Bring Back
the Natural Color.
“Pul! ou’ one.gray hair and a dozen
will take its place.” is an old saying,
which is, to a great extent, true, if no
steps are taken to stop the cause. When
gray hairs appear it is a ; ign that Na
ture needs assistance. It is Nature’s
call for help. Giay hair, dull, lifeless
hair, or hair that Is falling out, is not
necessarily a sign of advancing age. for
there are thousands of elderly people
with perfect heads of hair without a
single streak of gray.
When gray hairs come, or tvhen the
hair seems to he lifeless or dead, some
good, reliable hair-restoring treatment
I should be resorted to at once Speclal-
I ists say that one of the best prepara-
I tions to use is the old-fashioned “sage
i tea” which our grandparents used. The
! best preparation of this kind is Wyeth’s
I Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, a prep
aration of domestic sage and sulphur,
scientifically '■ompoiinded with later
discovered hair tonics and stimulants,
the "‘hole mixtur* v .J>eing carefully bal
anced and tested by experts
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is
and wholesome and perfectly harmless.
It |-ofre>hes (Jr\. parched hair, removes
dandruff and gradually restores faded
or gray hair to its natural color.
Don't delay another minute. Start
using Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur at
once and see "hat a difference a few
days' treatment will make in your hair.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle, and is
recommended and sold by all druggists.
■UNO VOTE I
BIG FOR GlfißK
He Polls Harmon’s Strength,
Too, in Primary—G. 0. P.
Fight Is Close.
BALTIMORE, May R.—With each of |
the candidates —both Democrats and
Republicans—claiming victory. Mary- i
land today voted in her first presiden
tial preference primary. With sharp
contests between both Democrats and
Republicans, a heavy vote, was being
polled all over the state.
""he primary has resulted In one of
the most interesting political fights in
the state's history, because it has. de- i
velopod more actual legitimate cam- I
paigning and. in some instances, “less |
bossing and more following” than any |
other contest in recent years. . . .
Both Roosevelt and Taft declare that
the state is theirs and in estimating
majorities in the state convention give
out practically the same figures.
At the headquarters of the Wilson. ’
Hannon and Clark workers statements
claiming victory also were made byjthe
Democratic factions. There are hot
judicial and congressional fights in
most of the counties, which will make
heavy, aside from the interest
in the presidential primary’. The Dem- 3
ocratic organization is backing Speak
er Clark and claims he will carry the
state with a big majority. .
The untied support of Clark’s own >
forces and those of Governor Harmon,
who has no delegates in the will j
be behind him.
Friends of, Governor Harmon in Bal
timore and In the counties will vote
first for their preference, whose nam* :
will appear on the ballot, and then
thev will vote for the Clark delegates, S
whose names will appear on the ballot |
in each district tn the city’ and in °ach T
county. This combination of strength. ■
it is predicted, will elect Clark'dele
gates to the state convention and will
defeat the Wilson delegates.

ANNIVERSARY
Just a few lines from a man whb owes
his existence to you This writing is a.
happy anniversary- as it is now one year
that I have not Inst a day due to my old
trouble. I aid feeling fine and the test
is normal I can not express or utter
an appreciation suitable. Wishing you
unlimited success.”
F. CHANDLER,
359 Main Street.
Middletown. Mass.
Two years ago on Christmas Day, Chan
dler was given up In Clay, N. Y.. by his |
home physician. He had dropsy to -the S
bursting, nearly 50% albumen and early ’■
death was looked upon as certain. The ‘
family was in despair. They heard of a
recovery in an adjoining town and one
of them went tn see about it. They learn
ed that the recovery was effected by
Fulton’s Renal Compound, and Chandler
«a«? put on it on that day. It was a very
hard rase and recovery was slow, but
about a year thereafter he was able to |
return to employment. The above anni
versary tells the rest.
Wonder what physicians think of all
this, who are wedded to nitro glycerine,
digitalis and Basham’s Mixture, under
which failure is certain.
