6 FORGED TO EJECT ■< HE SAYS Purchaser of Property Where Mrs. Yancey Lived Denies Responsibility for Ouster. J. H Ewing, of the Edwin P. Ans ley Realty Company, issued a state ment today in regard to the disposses sion of Mrs. Mary Yancey from her home at 287 Decatur street, in which he said that he wa.- forced by the courts to take the property. Mrs. Yancey was evicted yesterday and created quite a scene b> refusing to leate the premises. Mr. Ewing said: ' Some months since a commission ."was appointed by the court to sell < er- 1 I.i n property belonging to Mary J. I Ynnee- . Other gentlemen and myself I became the purchasers of one of these several properties, but when I went down to notify th< negro tenant who occupied the house that T was the own. < r and thereafter the rents were pay able to me. 1 was notified by the negro that her husband had a five-year lease on the place, and that Mrs. Yancey had been paid the rents in advance for the full term; whereupon f demanded on the commissioners that they put me and my associates in possession of the property. "The commissioners, therefore, asked and obtained an order from Judge George L. Bell of the superior court directing the sheriff to put us in pos session. Neither 1 nor any of my associates were responsible for Mrs. Yancey’s liv ing in the house with these negroes nor for her dispossession. ■ No doubt, you will recall that it was Mrs Yancey who recently remained tn a house on Edgewood avenue until it wa- torn from over her head, and that it was also she who has figured in quite a few other law' suits with which the public is already familiar. "We emploced attorneys to keep from being forced to take the property re ferred to in your article, and when we wire advised that we could bo com pelled to take it, there was no other ,<_ourse for us to pursue except to take possession of the property for which our money had been paid.” ATLANTA LABOR MEN LOOM LARGE AT BIG MEETING IN ALABAMA N H Kirkpatrick, former president of the Atlanta Federation of Trades, is in Anniston, Ala , this week attending the annual convention of the Alabama Feder ation of Labor.

May 22.—T0 a specific and official inquiry directed to them by the Georgia Anti-Saloon League re cently, the prospective candidates for the legislature in Bibb county have re plied that they do not favor the pres ent state-wide prohibition law on the statute books of Georgia. The replies of the candidates were mailed to the league’s headquarters in Atlanta today. The Bibb county aspirants for legis lative honors understand that the in quiry directed to them was merely the first of a series of inquiries to be di rected to other candidates for the legis lature throughout the state, the entire scope of the Inquiry to cover approxi mately the whole state, from pne end to the other. The Bibb count} candidates infer from the inquiry’ directed to them that the Georgia Anti-Saloon League is get ting ready to precipitate the prohibition question upon the state in the forth coming campaign, particularly with re spect to the legislative candidates. lagra. but while in Mississippi he came in contact with a large number of so diagnosed cases of pellagra, and many of- those people who used the Quaker remedies were wonderfully benefited. So on this recommendation Mr. Castele procured a small treatment. Anna was in a very deplorable condition. The skin was off her hands up to her el bows. Across her forehead and breast was raw. The bowels were pouring off very much of the time. She was in a very weak, rundown condition. The fa ther called and said: "My daughter is getting along just splendid. The skin has all grown back on her face and hands, the bowels are acting about nor ma . in fact she is feeling good, and 1 truly believe the Quake: remedies will i.u e her . omplet?ly."

Metropolitan PARIS, May 22.—Caruso has signed a four-year contract with the Metro politan Opera Company. ‘Hitherto,’’ he said, "I was content with $3,000 per night. I was guaranteed a minimum of 40 performances in five months. But now I'm to receive more. ' When asked whether he intended to appear in Wagnerian tetralogy, Caruso replied: "Later, much later. When my voice is aged I shall be able to shout as loud as I like. Then I .shall be able to put in my repertory 'Tris tan,' 'Meistersinger' and ’Siegfried.' ’La Favorlta’ and 'll Trovatoce' re quire a young, fresh, pure voice.

Lewis was not injured, while the horsv was killed. | is a blood disease, he can see no reason ■w hy Quaker Extract will not cure pel lagra. Every disease it is claimed to cure outside of expelling worms is of the blood. Catarrh, indigestion, kidney, stomach, liver, bladder troubles, rheu matism have all got to be cured by a systemic treatment, and that is why Quaker remedies have made such a wonderful record in Atlanta. Now. the Health Teacher doesn't claim one bottle of Extract to cure anybody. It's a child’s treatment. Three bottles are considered the small treat ment. It gives you about six weeks treatment, and that is the shortest space of time you can make any dispo sition in the blood. So. call today at Coursey A Munn's drug stole. Ma rietta street.
