MACON, Sept. 15.—The campaign
of the law enforcement league to
close every saloon in Macon and ab
solutely prevent the sale of even beer
h «ra, received a great impetus last
night when the congregations of
twelve leading Methodist. Baptist and
Presbyterian Churches assembled in
mass meeting at the oity auditorium
and not only indorsed the program,
hut raised $2,860 for the use of the
league.
F. L. Mallary, president of the
league, and Rev. J. L. White, pastor
of the Vlneville Baptist, and W. N.
Ainsworth, pastor of the Mulberry
Street Methodist, declared from the
platform that the campaign will not
cease until an injunction has been
brought against everv saloon and
locker club in Macon.
Injunctions Pending.
There already are fifteen injunc
tions pending against saloons, and
one saloon has been closed up and
the licenses forfeited on the ground
that it was a nuisance, upon the sale
of whisky being proved.'
The Law and Enforcement League
contends that the prohibition law
prohibits the pale of beer if that beer
is intoxicating, and it is claimed that
there is no such thing as “near-beer.”
Bottles of liquor and beer pur
chased from every Macon saloon were
piled on a table and displayed to the
audience, which consisted of over
3,000 men and women.
“Macon is so wide open that the
city is a disgrace to a decent State.”
wap a statement made. It wa de
clared that the meeting last night had
no political significance.
Faces Turned to Courthouse.
“Hereafter our faces are turned to
courthouse, where there is an incor
ruptible and unpurchasable judge, and
our backs are turned to the City Hall,”
declared Mr. Mallary.
Solicitor John P. Roes was severely
arraigned by Dr. Ain.**worth for the
statement that he w’ould not prose
cute any man for violation the pro
hibition law who had sold only beer.
When a collection was asked, there
was a rush for the door. “Shut the
doors, Messrs. Ushers, and don’t let a
man escape,” shouted Dr. Ainsworth.
Believing that the law enforcement
league is in deadly earnest, many
saloon keepers to-day declared their
intention of retiring from the busi
ness upon the expiration of their
present licenses.

“Gasoline Week" Will Be Inaugu
rated in November as Annual
Event—Sousa To Be Here.
Atlanta’s annual Gasoline Week
promises to be big an Advertise
ment for the city every autumn as
grand opera week is in the spring. It
will be inaugurated in November with
the automobile show and the mot r
races at the new autodrome out
Peachtree road.
Now that the Chamber of Com
merce ha6 indorsed the motor show
and races and is nding its support
to both, the committees of the auto
mobile association are working to
make the show the best ever. Space
has been taken by all the leading
manufacturers, and practically every
car made in America will be repre
sented.
One of the features this year will
be the music. Sousa’s Band has been
engaged for the week. Sousa was the
gfeat hit of the Atlanta Exposition
years ago, and when he brought his
band for a short stay at the Grand
several seasons past he drew two big
audiences.
Special rates have been granted on
all the railroads running into At
lanta, and the auto association mem
bers expect more visitors than ev *r
before. Dealers and agents will se*
the new 1914 models for the first time
at the show, and owners and pro
spective purchasers may look over
competing lines, study the “works”
and make up their minds where to
put their money.
Wiley West, one of the leaders in
the association, will leave soon for
Detroit as a delegate to the National
Good Roads Convention, with the de
termination to land next year’s meet
ing for Atlanta. If the convention is*
won, it probably will be held simul
taneously with the 1914 auto show
and motordrome races.
Performance Given in Grove of
Pines at Foot of Hill Near

T. Lindlev, No. 315 East Hunter
sXreoL early Monday,
MERIDEN, N. H., Sept. 15.—Seated
in a charming grove of pines, Presi
dent Wilson was a deeply interested
spectator at the pastoral masque
“Santuary,” in which his youngest
daughter. Eleanor, played the leading
part. The playette, by Percy Mac-
kaye, the poet, was a protest against
the slaughter of birds for millinery
purposes.
The President was a guest of Miss
Eleanor and her sister Margaret. A
lyrical prelude to the masque was
sung by Miss Margaret. But upon
the younger sister devolved dramatic
necessities which indicated *he is
possessed of rare stage talent.
With soft, appealing tones Miss
Wilson, as Ornis, the bird spirit,
pleaded with the hunter to forswke
his rifle. The sharp crack of a gun,
followed by a sudden fall of Ornis,
marked the climax of the piece.
Wounded and sobbing. Ornis is con
soled by the fauns, poet, dryad and
naturalist, who in the end convert
the hunter to a birdlover.
The President’s daughter spoke her
lines with careful expression, and was
enthusiastically applauded.

There are other symptoms, such
as pains in the region of the kid
neys, nervousness, dizziness, tired
and wornout feeling, weak blad
der, or urinary troubles, which
are just as dangerous, for the
slightest kidney derangement if
neg!«•<•'v-d may develop >.r$to tin-
deadly Bright s disease, dropsy or
diabetes.
It is not only dangerous, but
needless, for you to suffer and en
dure the tortures of these trou
bles, for Croxone promptly ends
all such misery.
There is no more effective rem
edy for kidney, bladder trouble
and rheumatism than Uroxdne,
because it reaches the cause. It
soaks right into the kidneys
through the walls and linings,
cleans out the clogged up pores,
neutralizes and dissolves the poi
sonous uric acid and waste matter
that lodge In the joints and mus
cles and cause those terrible rheu
matic pains, and makes the kid
neys filter the poison from the
blood and drives it out of the sys
tem.
Three doses of Croxone a day
for a few days is often all that
is ever needed to relieve the W'orst
backache or overcome disagree
able urinary disorders.
You will find Uroxone different
from other remedies. It is so pre
pared that it is practically impos
sible to take it without results.
An original package of Uroxone
costs but a trifle, and all druggists
are authorized to return the pur
chase price if it should fail in a
single case.
