AIW TRIAL Granted Capt. T. J. Peeples of Bohannonville. DECISION HANDED DOWN By The Supreme Court on Yesterday. Says last night’s Atlanta Journal : , The supreme court today handed down a decision grant ing a new trial to T. J. Peeples, of Dalton, who was convicted of receiving stolen goods at the time of the exposure of the fa mous freight robberies perpetra ted by the Bohannon gang. Capt. Peeples was local agent of the Western & Atlantic rail road and one of the most prom inent men of Whitfield county. He was charged with buying a fine carpet from Bohannon which the latter had stolen. Captain Peeples insisted that the carpet had been purchased from a deal er in Chattanooga. On the evidence presented to the court Capt. Peeples was con victec’. The'case was appealed to the supreme court and a de cision was rendered today re versing the judgment of the lower court as follows : “Peeples vs. The State. Before Judge Fite, Whitfield superior court. “Lumpkin, P. J.—l. It is legitimate and proper, when examining witnesses called to prove the g iod character of one on trial for crime, to inquire of them how long they have known him, for what length of lime they have resided in the same community with him, and as to other like matters. Their an swers to questions of this nature are relevant as tending to show their opportunities for acquiring a knowledge of the general char acter of the accused. “2. The testimony of an ac complice cannot, in legal con templation. be corroborated by that of another. It was therefore, in the present case, erroneous to charge the jury that if three named witnesses were accom plices, “still they may corrobor ate eacTi other.” “3. Except as above pointed out, the charge of the court in so far as it dealt with legal prin cinles was free from material error, but it was in some respects argumentative, and for that rea son subject to criticism ; some of the remarks made by the judge when ruling upon questionsaris ing during the trial were objec tionable ; a minor error was committed in permitting the in troduction of hearsay testimony, but aside from this, it does not affirmatively appear that any other illegal evidence was ad mitted. “Judgment revered.

The national disease of Amer icans is indigestion or in its chronic form dyspepsia, and for the very reason thet it is so com mon many people neglect taking proper treatment for what they consider trifling stomach trouble, when as a matter of fact, indiges tion lays the foundation for many incurable diseases. No person with a vigorous, healthy stomach will fall a victim to consumption. Many kidney diseases and heart troubles date their beginning from poor digestion, thin, nervous peo ple are really so because their stomachs are out of gear, Weary, languid, faded out woman owe their condition to imperfect di gestion. When nearly every person you meet is alllictel with weak diges tion it is not surprising that nearly every secret patent medicine on the market claims to be a cun* for dyspepsia, as well as a score of other troubles, when in fact as Dr. Werthier says, there is but one genuine dyspepsia cure which is perfectly safe and reliable and moreover ti is remedy is not a patent medicine but it is a scientific combination of pure pepsin (free from animal matter) vegetable essences fruit salts and bismuth .It is sold by druggists under name of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets. No extravagant claims are made for them but for indigestion or any stomach trouble. Stuart’s Dyspepsia T ablets are far ahead of any remedy yet discovered. They act on the food eaten, no dieting is necessary, simply eat all the wholesome food you want and these tablets will digest it. a cure results, because, all the stomach needs is a rest, which Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets give by doing the work of diges tion. Druggists sell these tablets at 50cts per package. Little book on stomach diseases and test.imonals sent free by addressing Stuart Co. chemists, Marshall, Mich. Con<leiiM*<l Schedule 1.
