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- WORKED WONDERS 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. Try Cardui, N. B—Write to: Indies' Advisory nept.. Chattanooga Medicine Co., Chat tanooga.

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.
