WAYCROSS, Aug. 2.—Of all the re-
ports in circulation in railroad cir
cles, the one of most interest to Way-
cross and this section Ju»t 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 Coast Line the Illinois
Central now operates passenger trains
through Waycross to Jacksonville,
using the Central of Georgia tracks
from Birmingham to Albany, where
the (’oast 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 the purchase of one
of tbe short lines between Waycross
and Jacksonville would require but a
small amount of new road to give the
Illinois Central a rail line of Its own
from the West to Florida.
Besides opening up a through line
to Florida, the purchase of the At
lanta, 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-
i 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.

BRUNSWICK, Aug. 2 —The con
struction of a t*aper pulp mill as a
part of the Yaryan plant is given se
rious consideration by the officers an l
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.

C. Eason, of South Carolina, con

ing opposing Charles G. Edwards for

Negro Starts Battle
When Collector Calls
Makes Fort of His Home and Stands
Off Posse Till Able to
Escape.
WAYCROSS, Aug. 2.—Reports to
day from Homerville tell of a lively
running pistol duel between a party
of white men and a negro named
George Washington, wanted for
throwing a piece of iron at G. C
Hughes. The latter tried to collect an
account and the negro resented it.
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
ffwamp near by. It is believed the ne
gro was hit two or three times. Both
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 w'ould 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 apology.
In lieu of this, it is said, he may
visit Waycross in person and settle
the matter with the minister.

made no statement about the case

that his trial would prove this be

supposed to have been the motive for
the murder, but so far none of the
money supposed to have been taken
has been found.

Fines Are Numerous.

$463 In fines.

w hisky ordinance were tried, and both
were convicted. The “tiger” sentence

the citizens were positive amounted
to flagrant violations of the Sunday
law. It was alleged that cold drinks
and ice cream could be purchased at
half a dozen restaurants in the city
and at an amuseemnt park on the
edge of the city.
A prompt investigation was made,
but nothing found by the officers io
substantiate their charges. No war

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.”—Morcut
Aureliua, Roman Emperor. * rT
Some shrink and try to dose their eyes and ears
to the haunting fact that the little 21-2 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.
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 day.
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 hearty
handclasp.
Truth thus made welcome will prove your
best friend.
These are facts without regard to out 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.
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.
“There’s a Reason” for
POSTUM
