Hotel Wins Lawsuit
Against Contractors
Collins Brothers Restrained From
Interfering With Building in
Savannah.
j Purchase Would Give Continuous
Trackage From the West to
Atlantic Seaboard.
WAYCROSS, Aug. 2.—Of all the re
ports In circulation In railroad cir
cles. tho one of moat interest to Way-
cross and this section just now is that
connecting the Illinois Central with
the list of possible purchasers^ of the
Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic,
which is to be sold this month under
a mortgage foreclosure.
By a trackage arrangement with
the Atlantic (’oast Line the Illinois
Central now operates passenger trains
through Waycross to Jacksonville,
using the Central of Georgia tracks
from Birmingham to Albany, where
the Coast Line takes the trains. By
getting the Atlanta, Birmingham and
Atlantic, the Illinois Central would be
within 75 miles of Jacksonville with
its own track, and thd purchase of one
of the short lines between Waycross
and Jacksonville would require but a
small amount of n- w road to give the
Illinois C< ntral a rail line of its own
from the West to Florida.
Besides opening up a through line
to Florida, the purchase of the At-
anta, Birmingham and Atlantic and
the supposed extension Into Jackson
ville would give the Illinois Central a
chance at the Immense freight busi
ness of three important South Atlan
tic ports—Savannah, now reached
over the Central of Georgia; Bruns
wick and Jacksonville. The possi
bilities of these advantageous con
nections are said to be strong factors
in favor of the Illinois Central bid
ding for the railroad soon to be sold.
Railroad men who are In touch with
the Atlanta end of the situation are
inclined to the opinion that the Louis
ville and Nashville and the Atlantic
Coast Line will figure for the Atlanta,
Birmingham and Atlantic.

Yaryan Naval Stores Company Pro
poses to Utilize Present
Waste Material.
BRUNSWICK, Aug. 2.—The con
struction of a paper pulp mill as a
part of the Yaryan plant is given se
rious consideration by the officers and
stockholders of the- company as a
means of adding greatly to the in
come.
About 500 tons of wood would be
required to meet the daily capacity of
the plant with its present naval stores
equipment. After the naval stores
products have been extracted, the
wood fiber is left, and aside from
fuel purposes, the company has no
use for it. About 200 tons of this
pulp each day is suitable for long
fiber pulp, and when run through the
pulp mill would make about 100 tons,
which has a market value of approxi
mately $40 a ton.

WAYCROSS, Aug. 2.—Reports to
day from HomervHIe tell of a lively
running pistol duel between a party
of white men and a negro named

Running to his home, Washington se
cured his pistol and numerous car
tridges and gave battle.
Washington slipped from his home
after several volleys had been fired at
him and made good his escape to a
swamp near by. It is believed the ne
gro was hit two or three times. Bon
negro and his pursuers shot to kill,
and had he been captured, rough
treatment might have resulted.
FEW HOURS’ GOOD TIME
IN SAVANNAH COST $100
WAYCROSS, Aug. 2.—Not In years
has Waycross been stirred more than
it has been since the public denounce
ment by the Rev. W. P. Price, pastor
of the First Baptist Church, of for
mer School Superintendent E. A.
Pound, now an Atlanta resident, for
cigarette smoking.
The minister said he frequently had
seen Professor Pound smoking cig
arettes.
Friends of the former school head
immediately denied the charge and
wrote to Professor Pound. He wrote
to the minister, denying the statement
made from the pulpit here, and asking
for an apology. The Rev. Mr. Price
did not like the way Professor Pound
wrote to him and said in a letter that
if Professor Pound would write a let
ter that could be read to the congre
gation he would retract the state
ment.
The retraction was made last Sun
day, but it has developed since that
the minister made additional remarks,
alleging that Professor Pound applied
"a vile epithet” to him. To the so-
called retraction exception has been
taken, not only by Professor Pound,
but by his many friends in Waycross.
Just what will be the outcome can
not be foreseen, but friends of Pro
fessor Pound believe he will insist
upon an apology that is an apolog>.
In lieu of this, it is said, he may
visit Waycross in person and settle
the matter with the minister.

WAYCROSS, Aug. 2.—Despite the
fact that July was one of the busiest

law. It was alleged that cold drinks
and ice cream could be purchased at
half a dozen restaurants in the city

edge of the city.
A prompt investigation was made,
but nothing found by the officers 10
substantiate their charges. No war
rants have been sworn out up to date.

corded During July, but Dog
Fines Are Numerous.
WAYCROSS, Aug. 2.—The Way-
cross polit e docket for the past month
i . drnnlf'

cases were disposed of in Police
Court, netting the city the sum of
$463 in fines.
Only two violations of the city
whisky ordinance were tried, and both
were convicted. The "tiger” sentence
here is $100 or 90 days. The docket

’TIS MOSES, THIS TIME,
WHO BLAMES AN “EVE”
Some Persons
“Flinch”
When Truth
Hunts Them
“If any man is able to convince me and show me that I
do not think or act right, I will gladly change, for I seek
the truth, by which no man was ever injured.”—Marcus
Aurelius, Roman Emperor.
Some shrink and try to close their eyes and ears
to the haunting fact that the little 2 1-2 grains of
Caffeine in every average cup of coffee is the de
mon which relentlessly pursues and starts various
ailments, such as biliousness, headache, nervous
ness, sleeplessness, bowel trouble, heart failure
and a long string of aches and ails, taking one form
in one person and another in another.
The effect of repeated doses of coffee, on those
who are susceptible to caffeine poisoning, is so
complex that it is difficult to foretell where its
hurt will be most serious; in Heart, Head, Eyes,
Nerves or where.
The stroke of trouble will come somewhere if
the daily doses are persisted in.
Of course, if anyone prefers to treat his body in
that way it is useless to suggest relief.
Let him "follow the trail” until badly wounded.
Some go so far they can’t get back to health.
Others quit the foolish, losing game before fixed
chronic disease sets in.
It comes in two forms. One called Regular
Postum, must be boiled full 15 minutes.
The other, Instant Postum, is in powder form
and a level teaspoonful in a cup of hot water makes
the beverage instantly. Grocers keep both kinds.

SAVANNAH. Aug. 2.—Confessing to
many robberies during the last few
weeks, Moses White lias been taken in
charge by detectives and a large quan
tity of goods recovered.
White states that a "woman” caused
him to launch upon his career of petty
crime. LU wa-s formerly & taeaciier.
There’s a Reason” for
POSTUM
There is a mighty army of sensible ones, how
ever, who have bravely tested the truth with their
own bodies to see whether or not it was the truth
that coffee caused their ailments.
It’s an easy test. Quit coffee absolutely for 10
days. Take Postum hot and well-made and keep
track of the change toward health day by dav.
It’s the most exquisite pleasure in the world to
be perfectly well with all the delicate and beauti
fully adjusted machinery of the body working in
harmony, not interfered with by drugs, one of the
most insidious and deceptive of which is caffeine in
coffee.
This is Truth.
Meet it bravely with head up and a heartv
handelasp.
Truth thus made welcome will prove vour
best friend.
These are facts without regard to our own
opinion, or to whether or not you use Postum.
However, it is well to consider that famous
food-drink because it supplies a hot beverage of
the deep seal-brown color of coffee, which turns to
the rich golden-brown when cream is added.
It has a snappy flavor much like the old-time
real Java, but there is no “sting” in it, no caf
feine or other drug of any sort. It is skillfully
manufactured of wheat and a trace of New Or
leans molasses.
