Judge Tried to Shield Bride. Then, according to the story of the tragedy, as outlined by the prosecu tion, the infuriated woman turned the weapon upon her former hus band and killed him instantly. "We will be able to establish these facts by a number of witnesses,” said Colonel W. H. Davis before the trial began. Colonel Davis, with A. S. An derson, is assisting Solicitor Moore in the prosecution. “As the young woman fell to the floor pierced by the bullet wound. Judge Godbee threw his arm about her shoulder, receiving a bullet wound in the upper arm that shattered the bone. As the girl lay writhing in pain on the floor Mrs. Godbee fired the third shot into her body. This shot penetrated the body in the vicinity of the hip.” Colonel Davis expressed his opinion that the trial would not last more than three days. The State, he said, proposed only to introduce a few wit nesses. the most of whom would be persons who actually had seen the shooting. ' Demurrers Overruled. Judge Saffold, of counsel for Mrs. Godbee, then entered both a demurrer and a plea of abatement, both of which were overruled. The demurrer was made on the al legation that the Legislature exceeded its constitutional limitations in allow ing R. Lee Moore to continue as So licitor General after legislating him out of this circuit. The plea in abate ment set up that the Grand Jury which indicted Mrs. Godbee was ille gally impanneled. in that the oath was administered to them by R. Lee Moore. These objections being overruled. Mrs. Godbee and her counsel pleaded not guilty and the selection of a jury began. Out of the first panel of 48 names three jurors were secured. They are James Daniel, whose wife’s first cous in married Mrs. Godbee’s son; S. W. Palmer and I. S. Lane. Fourteen ve niremen were excused because of kin ship for Mrs. Godbee. Both the State and the defense used half their f>er- emptory challenges. Mrs. Godbee came into the court room promptly at 8:30 o’clock. She was accompanied by a number of her relatives, including her son. King Godbee. and his wife; another son. Frank M. Godbee, and wife; her daughter. Miss Sarah Godbee; Dr. and Mrs. Bargeron, of Augusta, brother-in-law and sister; Mrs. Am- ette Leonard. Mrs. W. L. Bargeron. Mrs. F. W. Perkins and Mrs. H. H. Perkins. The defendant wore a white waist and skirt. The confinement In the Jenkins County jail had not told on her at all. She seemed to be cheerful and watched keenly the faces of everyone who came into the court room.

Before 8 o’clock people began to arrive in Millen from the country in autos, buggies, wagons and on foot. Delighted with the beauties of At lanta and more than satisfied that this city won out in the contest for the 1914 convention of the Shriners. the delegation of the Imperial Council which visited.here to perfect arrange ments for the great conclave is now on its homeward journey' after a tour that included a trip to Panama and the Canal Zone. Only W. W. Irwin, imperial poten tate, remained until Thursday. He stayed as the guest of Potentate For rest Adair, of Yaarab Temple, and was at a dinner given in his honor at the Piedmont Driving Club Wednes day night. While the other members of the delegation were praising the advan tages of Atlanta as a convention city before their departure, J. Putnam Stevens, chief raban, of Lewiston, Maine, remained in meditative silence which he broke finally with a panegy ric upon the charm of the Southern women. Mr. Stevens spoke with elo quence and fervor worthy of a true Southern gentleman. Great City and Beautiful Women. He conceded the advantages on which the others had dwelled, but submitted that one of the chief joys that the visitors from the North would experience would be in having the delightful privilege of seeing—perhaps meeting—some of the famed Southern belles of whom so much has been w'ritten. “You have your historic associa tions. I grant you that, sir,” began Mr. Stevens, impressively. “You have a beautiful and enter prising city. Anyone can see that with half an eye. You have a city that rose from the ashes of the Civil War and has become the center and rapid of the South. That is a won derful achievement and a tribute to the spirit of your citizens. You should be proud of it. “But you have more than this. You have. sir. the most beautiful women on whom I ever have set my eyes. J am from Bleak old Maine. It s a mighty good State and I don’t want to be disloyal. I am not saying that it has not its charming women, It has plenty of them, and that is why my admission now. that I must take off my hat to the women of Atlanta and the South, has all the more weight.” r Diamond Prices Going Up Three advances, aggregating 15 per cent, have occurred in the wholesale market during the past twelve months, which we have not followed.

Marvin writes as follows: “For more than three years, I suffered with womanly troubles, and none of the different treatments I underwent, seemed to do me any good. “I also had pains in my left side, so bad, at times, I could hardly get up. “My husband told me to buy-some Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I did. I started, taking it, and soon began to feel better. I took only a few bottles, and now I am perfectly well, and able to do anything. “Cardui has done me a world of good. It certainly cured me of the trouble I had and I am getting along nicely. “I have recommended the remedy to other sufferers, and they have all been benefited by it. “I will always keep Cardui in my home for use in time of need.” Cardui is a purely vegetable reme dy, containing no harmful mineral products. Its ingredients act in a helping, building way, on the womanly constitution. It has been relieving womanly troubles for over half a century, during which time it has proven of more than ordinary value as a tonic for weak women. You can rely on Cardui.
