THE COMMITTEE
IS 111 SESSION
State Democratic Executive
Board Meets to Draft Prim
ary and Convention Plans.
. Atlanta, Ga,— Although an atmos
phere of heated party enthusiasm
< hararterlzed the meeting here today
of the democratic state committee,
few contests of Importance were ex
pected over the drafting of the pri
mary and convention plana and other
campaign details. In addition to
adopting rule* to govern primaries for
■election of two candidates for United
Slates aenator and minor state offi
cers, the committee had before It the
choice of a place and date for the
Mate convention and the levying of
tiaaessments against varioua candi
dates for office.
The Candidates.
The aexenihllng here of the sixty
■lx members of the committee was co
nvened by the presence in the city of
many aspirants to places on this year's
democratic ticket. The senatorial pri
maries, however, formed the princi
pal topic of gossip among the com
mitteemen and other political traders
here. As yet no candidate has an
nounced himself to oppose Senator
Moke Smith, who will seek re-noml
natlon for the term beginning on
March 4, 1915. Two candidates are la
the field for the nomination to fill
the unexplrod term of the late Senator
A. O. Huron. They are Congressman
Thos. W. Hardwick and Thomas 8.
Felder, former attorney general. Sen
ator W. S. West, appointed to serye
In Senator Bacon's place until after
the fall election, has not announced
whether he will be a candidate.
CHILD MELTS DEATH
SWINGING ON WAGON
Skull of Four-Year-Old Son of
Mr. and Mrs. L. H. Bowles
Crushed Under Heavy Grocery
Wagon. Negro Driver Held
Blameless By Coroner.
The frends of Mr. and Mrs. L. H.
Bowles, 706 Fenwick street, deeply
sympathize, with them In the tragic
death of their four-year-old son Jamie,
whose slojll was crushed under the
wheel of "a heavily laden two-horse
delivery wagon of the W. B. Brigham
Si Son's grocery house, at 4 o'clock
yesterday afternoon, at the intersec
tion of Seventh and Fenwick streets.
Richard Ftyyd, the negro driver, was
arrested by Police Officers Glover,
Horn and Parnell.
An inquest into the death of the
child was held at the R. E. Elliott un
dertaking parlors, shortly aftpr, by
Acting Coroner W. H. Bumberger, and
a verdict by the jury, of which Mr.
T. M. PhHpot was foreman, was ren
dered to the effect that the deceased
came to his death through no fault of
the driver.
Upon the announcement of the ver
dict the driver was released.
Witnesses at the coroner's inquest,
who stated they saw the accident, tes
tified that the llttel fellow ran out at
right angles to the wagon and at
tempted to swing on it when he fell
under one of the rear wheels. The
heavy wagon rolled over his head,
crushing his little life out almost In
stantly. The witnesses state that from
the amount of freight piled on the
wagon the driver couldn't have seen
the lad. The accident happened ab
solutely without warning and some
who saw It called back the driver,
who was continuing on his way, ap-

SPITE OF ONBELIEF
“ At First I Had no Faith”,
Savs Mother, “But Soon
There Was Such A
Chanqe.”
Ontario, Va.—Mrs. M. T,. Anderson,
of this town, (rives out the following
for publication: "I went to Richmond
seeking relief, and tried almost every
thing in the medicine line, but nothing
proved a cure until X tried Cardul, the
woman's tonic. I had indigestion very
bad, and a complication of diseases
Although, at first, I had no faith in
it, I bought a bottle of Oardui, but
soon, there was such a change.. I was
certainty benefited. I felt so different!
Then I began to take the medicine in
earnest. Now, I can do my work, and
I eat and sleep like a young person.
Cardul also cured my daughter of
womanly troubles. I keep Cardui in
the house all the time. It is a great
blessing to ail women who need it.”
Thousands of ladies have written
like Mrs. Anderson, telling of the
wonders worked by Cardui in the re
lief of various forms of weakness and
distress, after other remedies had
failed to help.
Isn't it likely that you will be helped
by Cardui, this remedy which has been
in constant successful use for more
than half a century? Us record of
years of success, in relieving troubles
such as your own, is proof that it will
help you, too.

SMOKE SEEN; BIJOU
USHERS HER! PANIC
Little Blaze in Trash Can
Would Probably Have Caused
Loss of Lives Last Night.
Building Amply Protected By
Fire-Proof Walls, However.
Panic In the Bijou theatre, In the
Johnnon building, last night, when a
part of the building waa being filled
with smoke, waa averted by the rare
presence of mind and cool-headedneas
of some of the ushers. The entire
audience filed out orderly and, as a
result, no ono was hurt, as might
hove been the case, iind possibly
would have, had there been a stam
pede.
The presence of an increasing vol
ume of smoke In the house of course
Indicated fire—somewhere. No one
knew where, not even the ushers; but
they were most interested in keeping
the spectators cool and getting every
one out of tho theatre as quietly and
as quickly as possible. A dozen peo
ple becoming excited would likely
have caused a rush and a jam at tho
exits; some may have been crushed
to death, hut for the excellent way the
Bijou's ushers handled the crowd.
Because of Its being surrounded by
extra heavy fireproof walls the thea
tre Is safe from fire, and there should
never be any occasion for excitement
to the extent of panic. The manage
ment assures its patrons that the
house is well protected against fire
and that it meets in every particular
the requirements of the city laws in
reference to same.
After the theatre was emptied !n
less than two minutes and the fire
apparatus had arrived in response to
a box pulled at the corner of Eighth
and Broad streets it was ascertained
after considerable search that all the
smoke was caused from a little shoul
dering fire in a trash can in the rear
of the T. G. Howard Drug Company,
which is also located in the Johnson
building.
There was no damage.
Tho presence of the fire trucks or.
this busy corner caused a large crowd
to quickly gather.

Mrs. Sowers’ Own Statement.
Hodgdon, Maine.—“l feel itA duty I
owe to all suffering women to tell what
Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Com
pound did for me.
One year ago I found
myself a teryble suf
ferer. I had pains
in both sides and
such a soreness I
could scarcely
straighten up at
times. My back
ached, I had no ap
petite and was so
nervous I could not sleep, then I would
be so tired mornings that I could scarcely
get around. It seemed almost impossi
ble to move or do a bit of work and I
thought I never would be any better un
til I submitted to an operation. I com
menced taking Lydia E.Pinkham’s Veg
etable Compound and soon felt like a
new woman. I had no pains, slept welL,
had good appetite and could do almost
all my own work for a family of four.
I shall always feel that I owe my good
health to your medicine.”—Mrs. Hay
ward Sowers, Hodgdon, Maine.
If you are ill do not drag along until
an operation is necessary, but at once
take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound.
If you have the slightest doubt
that Lydia E. Pinkliam’s Vegeta
ble Compound will help you,write
