GRAHfI JURY GETS THE GW CASE 4. \ 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. WOMEN PUT DIAMOND RINGS IN COLLECTION FOR MISSION WORK MACON.

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. IMPERIAL SHRINERS SIGHT-SEE LOS ANGELES LOS ANGELES.
