TWO
Matter Insolvent Costs For Solicitor
General to Go Beiore Grand Jury
Interesting Question-- Some Grand Jurors Said to Be Dis
satisfied Because Solicitor General Received $6,317.75 in
Insolvent Costs From Richmond County in 1914 Compared
With $2,000 Per Year For Predecessor. Mr. Franklin Will
Make Statement Later.
It Im understood that the Richmond
County grand Jury hue taken up—or
If It hasn't already done ho will do
ho the* quest ion of insolvent costs
paid to the solicitor general. Just
what the* grand jury will do. or can
do about the matter is not known.
A tic r the morning session Wednesday
the grand Jury adjourned until next
week.
It iu understood that Holicltor Gen
eral Franklin In 1014, the m*corid year
In office, secured $0,317.75 from the
treasury of Richmond County in in
solvent costs. There seems to he no
dispute shout the right of the .solici
tor general to receive all of the in
solvent costs, under a decision of the
supreme court of Georgia, handed
down about two years ago, if recom
mended by the grand Jury. How
ever, there 1h a question as to wheth
er the InHolvent costs can bo paid if
the grand juries do not so recom
mend.
It seems that a great many years
ago h bill was passed in the legisla
ture limiting the insolvent costs for
the solicitor general In Richmond
County to $2,000 per year. Messrs.
William H. Pavis and .Jos. S. Rey
nolds, therefore, received $2,000 per
yaer from this county from that
source.
About three nr four years» ago Mr.
Salem Putcher. a« attorney for tho
county commissioners, took (lie mat
ter of Insolvent costs tip to the su
preme court, his idea being that $2,000
per year was too much to be paid the.

handed down a decision declaring tho
act to be unconstitutional. Mr. Jos.
S Reynolds, then solicitor general,
continued until the end of bis term,
however, to accept the $2,000 yearly
nk he had done for all of the other
part of his term, it was said at tho
time that Mr. Reynolds propably
could have recovered some $12,000 or
$14,000 of back insolvent costs from
the county, hut he did not attempt
to do 80.
Holicltor General Franklin was ask
ed for a statement Wednesday and ho
said that lie could not discuss tho
subject at this time because all mat
ters pertaining to the grand Jury were
of a private nature, Ac. a matter of
course, information about the Insol
vent costs did not come from grand
Jurymen for they never disclose mat
ters which are before thqm on the
outside,
Mr. Franklin Intimated that ho
would make a statement later.
There are few fines in the superior
court as compared with the city court
and the cases are almost all felonies.
Occasionally cases are reduced to mi«-
demeanor fl and fines given, which,
when paid are divided among tho
sheriff, clerk and solicitor general.
Also practically all of the costs in tho
superior court are Insolvent for tho
defendants are unable to pay them.
The action of the grand jury on the
question will bo looked forward to
with interest and also a statement j
from Solicitor General Franklin will
he keenly anticipated.
It l« learned from tho offices of tho
company horo.
Tho reason for tho postponement of
the departure is that certain certifi

TRIBUTE
TO THE LATE
DR. JOS. E. ALLEN
The following beautiful tribute tu
the late l)r. Joseph E. Allen, which
well describes his useful life, has been
contributed to The Herald by one of
Ids countless friends:
If Charity coveroth a multitude of
sins, no sin remained on the soul of
ihis noble son of the Savior, as his
Christian works of mercy were many.
Never was he known to refuse to re
spond to a call for aid for the troubled
and suffering. Always ready with his
words of comfort and cheer, al
ways responding to any call for alii
from the humblest in the land to those
of wealth, who were all his brethren
when assailed by physical agony. Not
only was he a healer of bodies, but in
his own original way he healed souls
by bringing comfort and cheer to
many despondent and rebellious spir
its who would not have passed
through the portals strewn with sharp
pebbles of woo with strength and
impe. If It had not been for their great
confidence in the skill of this gifted
man, whose personality and very pres
enee was often a stimulant to the suf
ferer; his softly spoken words of hope
and cheer would give new strength in
the battle with plain. He was hon
ored and beloved by men, who would j
place in bis hands the lives of those
dear to them and countless numbers
of saddened hearts have ached since
the news that he was no more, that
he has gone to the Ood whom he hum
bly obeyed when the call came for
him to follow his Master in the work
of healing, and hundreds who have
known his healing toueh thank Ood
for tho ,lfe of such a man. In God's
great mercy one heart has ('eased to
suffer and the patient sufferer has
gone to feel the balm of a Heavenly
Father who “dooth all things well, hut
countless other sufferers have sustain
ed n Ins irreparable in tho taking
away of good and just servant of a
Divine Master, who humbly anil con
scientiously fulfilled his mission, and
to the very best obeyed the command
from on high.
Augusta has lost one of her best be
loved citizens, who has been loved for
the great good he has dono, during
his entire life Tears ean never wnsh
awn v his memory from countless
among the healed, who have thanked
the Father for such a man.
"Verily. If you have not charity, ye
cannot enter Into the Kingdom of
Heaven." Who dares to snv Dr. Joseph
F Allen had not charity In Its great
est and fullest sense?
All men were his brothers, and his
love of humanity was the secret of
hlc great success ns a healer of physi
cal and spiritual man Other healers
are carrying on the work which they
learned from his teachings ns he wish,
ed for hts work to continue down for
ages Work for alleviating pnln and
snvtng life Work whirh he loved as
ho loved hts fellow men.
Hv Inheritance he was one of God's
workmen, and his very sonl won filled
with a desire to hen! and comfort the
sufferer, cheering and comforting ns
he went along, winning tho gratitude
and love of many.
A gentleman of honor and high prin
ciple was our dear Doctor Allen, a
true gentleman as well as a great amt
skilled man. His love .if man mads
of him a beloved eon of the Father
of all men and his examples ns well
as his teachings will make the wor d
better.
Augusta mourns today for one of
her best beloved and when the body
of Doctor Mien is la d away In Its last
resting place, there will he many »n 1
and bitter tears poured out that such
a man has been called awgv when we
needed him so much.
He leaves a great, bUf-fHUIIS 1 of
brothers, ns it were, to mourn for him.
as evert man was hts brother His
beloved sisters and brother are bowed
down in grief over their irreparitbl •
loss as their mutual love was great ami
they lavished upon him every care and
attention hive and skill could give.
Hi* confrere* nmoit* his urdfesilon
are stunned at the taktng away of
such a valued laborer In thetr vine
yard, and hi* multitude of grateful
friend* are bowed down In grief as
they realise that hi* warm, sunny

Mr. Worth Andrews, Merchant, Just
Back From the East, Says Business
to Be Normal Within 60 to 90 Days
Tells The Herald This is His Belief From Fact That Already
Business is Picking Up---Big Buyers He Met in New York
Likewise Confident Oppression Nearing Its End.
“I am optimistic over business con
ditions,’' stated Mr. Worth Andrews, of
the dry goods firm of Andrews Broth
ers, who was questioned today by a
representative of the Herald, “and I
believe that business inside of 60 to 90
days will be hack to normal again.”

New York, when 1 he went to buy goods
for his firm. While there he had the
opportunity of observing conditions in
the biggest business town in the coun
try and was aide to converse on these
subjects with business wen who were
there buying from all parts of the
country.
He says the general opinion is that

COURT DIRECTS
VERDICT FOR
PLITIFF
In Case of Citizens and South
ern Bank vs. Mr. Patrick
Armstrong Verdict Taken For
$42,133.69 For the Plaintiff.
Wednesday at 1 o'clock Judge Henry
C. Hammond directed a verdict for
the plaintiff in the case of the Citi
zens & Southern Bank vs. Mr. Pat
rick Armstrong, surety on a note
which the Irish-American Bank, now
defunct, gav# to the Citizens & South
ern Bank in December, 1913. The
verdict is for $42,133.69 and interest
and $4,213 attorney’s fees. It is ex
pected that the case will be appealed
by the defense.
In directing the verdict the court
upheld the contentions of plaintiff’s
counsel to the effect that the note of
Anna R. Campbell $ Company, which
was surrendered by the Citizens &
Southern Bank to J. P. Armstrong,
was surrendered to Armstrong as
agent to collect for the benefit of the
Citizens & Southern Bank and plain
tiff's attorneys exhibited in court a
trust receipt which J. P. Armstrong
gave the Citizens & Southern when
he secured the Anna R. Campbell note
for $25,000. Armstrong is said to have
informed the Citizens & Southern that
he wished to discount the note in
Chicago.
Judge Hammond stated that the
collateral furnished the Citizens &
Southern Bank, in the form of the
Anna R. Campbell note and security
deed to the Southwestern Land Com
pany were not given at all at the
time the Irish-American borrowed
$43,500 from the Citizens & Southern
Bank on a note endorsed by J. P.
Armstrong and Mr. Patrick Arm
strong, that this collateral wa B ob
tained later and did not influence
plaintiff in lending the money.
It was the contention of the defense
that by reason of the Citizens &
Southern Bank surrendering a por
tion of the collateral for the $43,500
note without the consent of Mr. Arm
strong, thereby increasing his liabil
ity without his consent, that Mr. Arm
strong could not be forced to make
good his endorsement.
The court, however, held that the
Anna R. Campbell note did not enter
into the transaction except a* addi
tional security secured after the
money had been loaned to the Irish-
American Bank and that it did not
affect Mr. Patrick Armstrong's liabil
ity, one way or another.

MIXED’-BHYSN
Washington.—Secretary Bryan said
today that the state department had
been without Information for two days
a s to what had been happening in
Mexico City. He described the situa
tion as “somewhat mixed.”
The flight of General Gutierrez from
Mexico City has necessitated a quick
change in military plans of the con

Villa. The expected attack on Tam
pico, it is now believed, will be de
layed. A general withdrawal of Villa

believed to be in prospect.
Enrique C. Elorente, Washington

was any intention of setting up a new'
republic in the north.

WHAT CAUSES COLDS?
This question and “How to Prevent
Colds” is asked a thousand times;
every day. A cold is really a fever,'J
not always caused by the weather but J
due to a disordered condition of fclie
blood or lack of important food-i
elements. In changing seasons fat-i
foods are essential because they dis
tribute heat by enriching the blood
and so render the body better able
to withstand the varying elements.
This is the underlying reason why
the medicinal fats in Scott’s Emulsion
quickly overcome colds and build
strength to prevent more serious sick
ness. It contains nature’s medicinal
fats, so skillfully prepared that the
blood profits from every drop, and it is
free from harmful drugs or alcohol.

feet and what I did do was by a great
effort. I could not sleep at night and
of course felt very bad in the morning,
and had a steady headache.
“After taking the second bottle I no
ticed that the headache was not so bad,
I rested better, and my nerves were
stronger. I continued its use until it
made a new woman of me, and now I
can hardly realize that I am able to do
so much as I do. Whenever I know any
woman in need of a good medicine I
highly praise Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg
