An army of 25,000 Kurds is marching I
on Constantinople. and it is feared they

The plight of Christians here is de
plorable. The dangers were height
ened today by an edict from the Sheik
U1 Islam, the head of the Mohammedan*]
priesthood, exhorting all true followers
of Mohammed to rise.
There is grave danger of pestilence In
the city. The presence of 30.000
wounded men, tjie scarcity of water and
bread, and the insanitary conditions at
tending the housing of an army all
combine to affect seriously the public
health.
Roman Catholics so far have been
the greatest sufferers in Asia Minor.

Illinois Looks
Like Wilson’s
f-HICAGO, Nov. 7.- With 60** precincts
still to hear from indications are that
Woodrow Wilson has swung Illinois into
the Democratic column. The returns In
dicate a plurality of 1...00 for the Prince
ton man.
The returns latest received cut the lead
of former President Roosevelt and Demo
cratic leaders believed the precincts still
to hear from will favor their candidate.
The precincts outstanding are scattered
in various parts of the state and In most
of them the vote is usually light. The
Progressive leaders believe that the vote
from them will not favor cither candidate
materially and they expect the result to
be very close when the count is complete.

On account of hfs condition, which

Marshal Marshmallows. Post
office Plums, and Collector
Candies Go to Faithful.
Hoch (pronounced ‘‘Hoke”) der pie
man!
United States Senator Smith, of Geor
gia, will direct the distribution of the
Federal patronage in Georgia under
President Woodrow Wilson.
Senator Smith early In the game saw
what was coming, and he got aboard
the Wilson band wagon.
It was a good old wagon, too, even
though it did squeak and creak and
groan mightily in the getaway.
At one time in Georgia it looked as
if Smith alone stood on the burning
deck—it takes some political adroitness
to stand on a burning deck and ride a
band wagon simultaneously, but the
senator was equal to'lt—whence all but
Smith had fled!
Now ‘the senator is coming into his
own. Which seems poetically just, any
way.
Cutting Will Be Fine.
And a fine, large, fat and juicy pie it
is that Senator Smith will superintend
the cutting of.
It figures to bo worth, in round num
bers, an even 1245,000!
There are approximately 150 post
offices of presidential persuasion in
Georgia that are worth byway of sala
ries about $125,000.
The postmastership end of the pie.
therefore, is the most toothsome and
satisfying, of course.
Then there are a couple of f’tiited
States marshals. Nice little pickings
these— worth about SIO,OOO per annum.
Every little marshal has a bunch of
deputies all his own. too. Add another
SB,OOO or SIO,OOO here.
One collector of internal revenue has
to worry along as best he may with a
measley income of $5,000. There are a
few willing patriots in Georgia, how
ever, ready to agree with Uncle Sam
that that will be all right.
And Atlanta Has Port.
In Savannah, Brunswick and other
points, port collectors must be filled.
Would you believe it. there is a col
lector of the port of Atlanta on the
government pay roll? Fine old port,
that of Atlanta, moreover. These port
jobs aggregate some $15,000 yearly.
Two Federal judgeships may he va
cated bv retirement of tile present hold,
ore. Add another $15,000.
Two district attorneys, with their as
sistants—sls,ooo more.
Then there are. indirectly affected by

PEACHTREE GRADING
SUITS HINGE ON CASE
BEING HEARD TODAY
The outcome of a small damage suit,
noW on trlaWin second division of superior
court, is being watched with interest by
city officials. The suit is directed against
the street department and a verdict in
ifavor of the plaintiff would provoke a
score of suits over the recent regrading
of Peachtree street.
The suit on trial was brought by T. D.
Cagle, of 41 Newport street. Cagle main
tained that the street department in low
ering the grade of Proctor street in front
of his house left his property six feet
above the street level. He asked the
court for a judgment of SSOO aaginst the
city.
At least a score of residents of Peach
tree street, between Kilis and Baker
streets, have been served in a. similar
manner, and doubtless will go into court
if Cagle wins his suit.
GRAND JURY TO END
JACK JOHNSON PROBE
CHICAGO, Nov. 7.—Federal inquiry
into the affairs of Jack Johnson, negro
heavyweight prize-fighter, were resumed
today. The grand jury investigation was
expected to end today and true bills—
should any be returned it was expected
wotild be voted before night.
KILLED BY TRAIN.
LAFA’YETTE. GA.. Nov. 7. -Thomas
Neely was struck and killed by the south
bound passenger train on the T. A. G.
railroad near Marsh Station, three miles
from Lai’ayette. Mr. Neely was well
known and formerly lived in I.a Fayette,
where he ran a restaurant.
Chief Pie-cutter in Georgia, is not go
ing to be exclusive about it. however.
Will Forget Factions.
He is going to call in some oilier of
ficials to help him with the distribution,
for it is understood that President-to
be W ilson long ago told the senator, in
the event of Wilson’s election, that the
pie-cutting in Georgia must.be on the
level, and that every nacher for slice
must have a square deal, regardless of
political factions within the state, and
unmindful of ancient enmities.
Just because a patriot in Georgia has
inclined in the past more to "Little Joe"
than to Hoke, or to Underwood than to
Wilson, is to cut no ice in the pie
cut tlr.g,
Senator Smith has been informed, po
litely enough, that all Georgia Demo
crats, in this glee-o-rlous day of vic
tory, look alike to Woodrow Wilson.
And. it is understood, the senator has
agreed to that. He thinks there will be
glo-er-pie enough for ail. as the case
stands
Congressmen will be consulted inva
riably In their respective districts, and
their wishes and desires will go far In
the matter of selecting Georgia office
holders.
Senator Bacon a.so will be in close
touch with his colleague, and his opin
ions will have much weight.
The pie-cutting is to be kept >trict
lv within tin familj. anil everything is
going to be good matured.
Hut the Honotable Hoke Smith will
sit at the In ad of t table, sai grace

William Alden Smith probably will not

California Gives
Wilson 7,500 Lead
1.08 ANGELES. Nov. 7.—With near
ly 1,700 precincts to be heard from.
Governor Wilson today was leading
Roosevelt by 4.500 votes and gave in
dications that he will carry California
by a majority of 7,500. The Progres
sive leaders have not given up hope of
carrying the state. They point out that,
the precincts to be heard from are re
garded as Roosevelt precincts. They
said that Roosevelt would more than
overcome the Wilson figures by gain
ing three and one-half votes a pre
cinct.
Should he carry California by the
estimated majority over Roosevelt of
7,500 votes, President-elect Wilson will
win the state over to the Democrats for
the fifth time In Its history since the
raising of the Bear flag in 1846.
Congressman William Kent, Progres
sive, First district, has been elected, ac
cording to returns today. It was at
first thought tje had 1 * been defeated.
Samuel C. Evans. Progressive, has been
elected in the Eleventh district.
Keystone Socialist
Votes Went to T. R.
PITTSBURG, Nov. 7—Returns re
ceived from 5,911 election districts out
of 6,503 in Pennsylvania, including
Philadelphia, give Theodore Roosevelt
a plurality of 30,503 over Governor
Woodrow Wilson. The missing dis
tricts are expected to slightly increase
his plurality. The vote of the leading
candidates as computed from the re
turns received was: Roosevelt, 395,028;
Wilson, 364,525; Taft, 259,344.
Taft carried Philadelphia by 10,575
over Roosevelt, but outside that city
in the state the president ran third.
The returns for the Socialist party
candidate have not been sent out in de.
tail, but there is enough information to
show that hundreds of votes that Eu
gene V. Debs was expecting went to
Roosevelt. Wilson also lost some Dem
ocrats to Roosevelt and the colonel
picked up some Prohibitionists.
Robert K. Young, for state treas
urer; A. W. Powell, for auditor gen
eral, and John M. Morin, F. E. Lewis,
A. H. Walters and A. R. Rupley, for
congressmen-at-large, are easy win
ners.

SKIN TROUBLE

616 W. Grace St., Richmond. V*.—“l had

it got red around, and was as large as a dolla
It turned white in the middle of the sore,
and then began to itch and bleed. Afte
washing it would bleed for hours at a time
Some nights I did not sleep through the
whole night. I spent eighty dollars on the
sore and it didn’t get well. I used a tonic
called and it did me no good. I got
worse and fell off to eighty-nine pounds.
This went on for four years. I tried some
of the best treatments and was told it
could not get well.
“One of my friends said I ought to try
Cuticura Hoap and Cuticura Ointment sc
I did. With the first treatment I begar
to feel better; after I had used the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment one week I could sleep
all right. After I had used them one month
the sore was gone and the itching stopped
and I have never had any trouble since
That was five years ago.
‘‘l had a fever and all my hair came out .
I shampooed with a lather of Cuticura Soap
and then rubbed the Cuticura Ointment
