I went to my home on Bay St. at noon Saturday, and did not go below Jack son St. again until Saturday night at 11 o’clock, when I went home. The first news I received of a worn an having been hurt was on Center St. when u Mr. Greene stopped me and asked me If I had heard who was In the automobile. "I was with Dr. Mulherin all day Saturday teaching him how to run the machine. I left him at his office Choice Neckwear WE’VE selected lavishly from the showing of the most noted Neckwear Makers their choic est Spring creations.

When 1 Hrrlved at the store Mr. Gus Speth was out and I wnlted for him about 10 minutes. I left the machine In front of the store and walked to Campbell St. i#nd bought a Coco Cola. I came back to the store and Mr. Speth was still out. Lamp Went Out. "I went to the machine and found that one of the lamps was about to go out, as the oil was out. I ran the machine around to J. W. White's gar age on Kills St. and filled the lamp. I came hack to Speth Bros.' store and Mr. Speth gave me my money. 1 talked to him a few minutes about automobiles before leaving. "As 1 came out of the store, I saw a mau whom i did not know pull out his watch. I asked him what was the time, and he said 8:46 o'clock. I realized that 1 did not have time to get supper, as 1 had an engage ment with I>r. Mulherin at 9 o'clock. I went to Jackson St. and turned, coming hack up Broad St. to Mar bury and out to Dr Mulhertn's of fice 1 waited outside of his office for about 10 minutes, until 9 o'clock, when he came out. I drove him to make two calls on Walker St. return ing him to his office about 10:30 o'clock. I loft him and went home Sunday 1 saw the officers with my brothers, and when I went up to find out the trouble, 1 was asked to come to the barracks. I carried De tective Bartley to the barracks wish me. After arriving there, my brothers were released. A few minutes later I was released on bond. Change of Number. Mr Tidwell tells about tb» change of the number on the machine as follows: "When I went to garage Sunday to get the machine 1 found that the number 153. had been taken off l did not want to go on the street without a number, so painted a number. No. &DI.K. on a board and put It on the machine. No. 6 In Mr. Speth's number, and being In his employ, 1 had a right to use his number. 1 afterwards found out that No. 158 had been borrowed by a par ty who had lost their number." The police have witnesses who state THE AUGUSTA HERAXD that it was a red Maxwell car that struck the woman. A list of tbe Max well cars has been secured, and the police are seeing every owner, and getting a statement from each one, as to the whereabouts of his ma chine from 8 until 9 o’clock Saturday night. In this way, if it was a Max well car, the police will be able to narrow the number of suspected cars down to those where the owners are unable to give an account of the doings of their car. Developments are expected in the next few hours that will fasten the matter positively to some one.

THOUSANDS WERE BENEFITED BY EXHIBIT Dr. Routzahn is Busy Packing up and Conclud ing all the Details of the Great Anti-Tubercu losis Exhibit. Snatches of conversation heard about the Anti-Tuberculosis Ex hibit: “I have never supposed tuber culosis was a plant. I always suposed it was an animal." I learned that as well as a number of other things by this campaign that is being carried on here.” "That is a mighty good show that you have up at the Armory. I was up to see it the other night. It means lots of study, but it is .fine.” "I always supposed tuberculo sis was hereditary until the ex hibition came to town.” "I had tuberculosis when I was fourteen years old. I did not know how to treat it then as they do now, and they gave me lots of cod liver oil. Don’t I look as if I was cured of the disease” A colored laborer said, “That is one of the best things we ever had. The people who furnish the money for carrying that on must have a good deal of it, and are doing a good work. I am coming to see it and I want my sister and her children to see it too.” "Do you really think in this cli mate people can always sleep with all their windows open,” in quired a colored attendant at one of the churches. i “I know,” said a colored man the other day, “we colored peo ple didn’t keep our house as clean as we might. We are to blame for the spread of this disease.” Visited by All Augusta. These “snatches of conversation” serve to show what a lasting Impres sion for good has been left by the Anti-Tuberculosis Exhibit. The ef fects of the local campaign and the educational propaganda are not to be estimated. They will be too far reaching to hound or define. More than 8,000 persons have visit ed the exhibit. The fourth to eighth grades of every white and colored public school in the city have been marched to the Armory and shown through the exhibit In an instruc tive and systematic manner. The Tubman High school. F'"hmond Aca demy, St. Patrick’s, Snci 1 Heart, St. Mary’s, Miss Dobey's school, the business colleges, Payne Institute, and the Hayne school have all seen the place. Most of the secret or ders have visited the exhibit, and nearly every organization in the city. The fire and police departments have "taken in” the exhibit, and were pro foundly impressed. The good work will he kept up after Dr. Routzahn has gon#. With a view of enlisting the co-operation of tbe newspaper men of Augusta he has arranged a meeting with the Press Club Monday afternoon. In the public schools, the churches, and through the physicians of the city, literature and learning will be dis seminated on this vital question. Armory hall resounded Monday morning with the noise of hammer and saw, as a force of workmen busied themselves dismantling and re-packing the great exhibit. Dr. Routzahn will be here until Fri day. closing up the details of the work, and arranging for the continu ance of the campaign after he is gone. Dr. Routzahn's Resume. "Responding to a request for a statement as to results from the ex hibition and an opinion as to its worth I must first plead inability to judge,” said Dr. Routzahn. "I have been too near the firing line —we have not been using smokeless powder—and can not see as others THINK HARD It Pays to Think About Food. The unthinking life some people lead often causes trouble and siek ness, illustrated in the experience of a lady in Fond du Lac. Wis. "About four years ago I suffered dreadfully from indigestion, always having eaten whatever .1 liked, not thinking of the digestible qualities. This indigestion caused palpitation of the heart so badly I could not walk up a flight of stairs without sitting down once or twice to regain breath and strength. ’I became alarmed and tried diet ing. w-ore my clothes very loose, and many other remedies, but found no relief. “Hearing of the virtues of Grape- Nuts and Postum. I commenced using I them in place of my usual breakfast of coffee, cakes, or hot biscuit, and in one week's time I was relieved of sour stomach and other ills attending indigestion. In a month’s time my i heart was performing its functions naturally and I could climb stairs and | hills and walk long distances. “I gained ten pounds in this short time, and m? skin became clear and I completely regained my health and strength. I continue to use Grape- Nuts and Postum for I feel that I owe my good health entirely to their use. i "There's a Reason.” "I like the delicious flavour of Grape-Nuts and by making Postum according to directions, it tastes sim ilar to mild high grade coffee."

A HELPING HAND Is Glaly Extended by an Augusta Citizen. There are many enthusiastic citi zens in Augusta prepared to tell their experience for the public good. Tes timony from such a source is the best of evidence, and will prove a "help ing hand” to scores of readers. Read the following statement: Mrs. W. C. Brown, 916 King St., Augusta, Ga., says: “i suffered for a long time from a constant, dull backache and sharp, shooting pains in my kidneys. I could not stoop or lift without suffering and in the morning my back was so lame and sore that I could hardly dress my self. My kidneys were very sluggish and the secretions contained a sedi ment. Since using a box of Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at the Green & Horsey Drug Co., the backaches and lameness have vanished, the headaches and dizzy spells are a thing of the past and my kidneys are normal. I gave Doan’s Kidney Pills the credit for these good results.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co.. Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States. . Remember the name—Doan's —and take no other. can see how the community has been affected. “As we see it the exhibition was loaned by the National Association to Augusta for Augusta’s own use in her own campaign against the chief cause o • death in Augusta. Hence the cam paign against the chief cause of death in Augusta. Hence the campaign of the past three weeks has been a part of Augusta’s own effort against tu berculosis or consumption. ‘”lhe exhibition has been used to awaken interest and spread knowl edge among the leaders of the peo pie as well as the rank and file in all walks of life. The design has been stimulate thought and cultivate 'talk.' "A significant thing about the cam paign has been the large number of people who have helped in one way or another. The list of names on the letter head represents but a minority of those who have done actual commit tee work, or have rendered service to wards the success of the effort. "This of itself has afforded training which ought to be of great value to future work in the city. Ministers and doctors, church people and labor leaders, club women and business men, and all the others have been rep resented among those who have an nounced the exhibition, made appeals on its behalf distributed printed mat ter put up the posters, loaned type writers, provided telephone service or light or ice or even towels, or given other and varied aid. “At the first meeting held in this city it was urged that tuberculosis made a broader appeal than any other human interest. The campaign has justified this claim in the support which has come from all the walks of life. “The attendance record of eighty three hundred is an inadequate indi cation of the service Tendered. In othr meetings and through the news papers and by means of ‘talk’ by in dividuals the message of the exhibi tion has gone practically into every home in the city. Through the pub lic schools and other school teachers and pupils and homes have been in terested and informed. The labor men have, we hope, gained a bit of renewed interest in their tubrculosis campaigning. Broad spiritd employers have had emphasis placed upon the privilege of co-operating towards bet ter health conditions for their em ployes. The daily papers have nobly met the opportunity. For each ‘au dience’ of one at the Armory the news papers have provided an audience of a hundred in and about the city. “But the important thing is not what the exhibition has appeared to do but what happens after the exhibi tion has left the city. It is not the recollection of the exhibition but the remembrance of work to be done which will count in the future. w e are glad for tbe privilege of service, but the value of that service is to be measured in terms of future achievement. May the citizens of Au gust make possible the highest type of results through continued and ef ficient effort to make Auguste the bes t type of a city m which to live.
