Townsin Georgia, Alabama and
Tennessee are Total Wrecks.
60 Deaths Reported, But Unconfirmed.
Crops in Sections of Three States
Are Ruined.
Memphis, Tenn.—The total death
death list of the destructive wind
storm was increased by the detailed
reports of forty-six, eleven more dead
being discovered. The storm sweptl
Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia with
a fury seldom, if ever, equaled in
this eection of the country.
If rumors of death at various outly
ing points are to be believed, sixty
elgl*t peopie were killed by the storm,
The'se reports have not been confirm
ed, as they come from distant sec
tions of the storm area, and it will be
some time before they can bhe verl
fied. 3
Rumors have been received telling
of the death ‘of 15 people on Second
Creek, Wayne county, but no names
are given, This report has not been
confirmed.
Three persons are reported killed at
Russellville, Ala., and four at Wood
ville, Ala, Both are unconfirmed.
Every indication now points that
the damage done by the storm to prop
erty and crops will go far above the
firgt estimates.
From all sections of the storm area
came reports of heavy property dam
age and destruction to crops. Cotton
in particular suffered great damage,
and whole fields were laid in waste
by the terrific downpour of rain and
hailstones,
The storm was probably the worst
that this section of the country has
ever known, and it will be days before
any correct estimate can be given ot
the actual damage it did.

The great $300,000 two-mile automohile speedway at Atlanta is com
pleted, and the first race meet will be held November 9-13, 1509, at which
time all of the world's greatest drivers will be seen in the world’s fast
est racing cars. e .
This marvelous course has been constructed by the business men and
sportsmen of Atlanta, and not a dollar's worth of stock is owned by any
one in any way connected with the automobile industry. Every possible
precaution has been taken to protect spectators and drivers against
possible accident., The home stretch, which is 100 feet wide, is located
in a cut 15 feet deep, and should a car run wild, it would be absolute
ly impossible for it to come in contact with spectators, as the grand
stand and bleachers are located on the banks of this cut. The grand
stand and bleachers are 1,800 feet long, and have a seating capacity of
40,000,
The cash prizes offered for these races are the largest ever offered
in an automobile event; the trophies and cash prizes amounting to
over $60,000. ;
Information regarding the detailsof this great meet can be had by
addressing the Atlanta Automobile Association, 720-721 Candler Build

ALL EUROPE AROUSED.
Spain Shoots Ferrer, Alleged Revolu
tionist, to Death.
Barcelona, Spain,—Francisco , Fer
rer, who was convicted of prompting
the recent Barcelona rebellion, was
shot in Montjuich prison in execution
?f the death sentence imposed upon
Aim, ’
Professor Ferrer, Spanish educator
and convicted revolutionist, faced the
firlng squad without flinching, and
fell dead at the first volley,
The execution was in the face of
the protests of Pope Pius and King
Emmanuel of Italy,
His execution is looked upon asthe
spark that will set off the revolution
ary magazine and the life of King
Alfonso is in danger, “Alfonso will
g&y with his lite for the death of
errer’'—that was the threat the rev
olutionaries held over the Spanish
government—and Ferrer is deaa.
All Spain iz aroused to the danger
and the crisis is rapidly spreading
throughout Europe, Protesting dem
onstrations were held all over Eu
rope and in Spain an uprising is
feared,
The larger cities of Alfonso’s do
main are under a semblance of mar
tial law and every available trooper
is held in readiness. Extra guards
surrounded the palaces and the mili
tary hclds Barcelona with a firm
hand. There the first outbreak is
expected,
The death of the Barcelona school
master, who was arrested on Septem
ber 1, in a town not far from Barcg
lona, when he carried nothing mo.e
deadly than a camera and a notebook,
has sent a tremor throughout the
continent,
Italy is aroused almost to the same
extent as Spain. Throughout the pe
ninsula mass meetings 10 protest
against the action of Spain have been
held. In many points of France sim
ilar action has been taken,
The cry of the radicals is that Fer
rer was condemned, not because he
was a revolutionist, but because he
founded a modern school whose teach
ings were opposed to those of the
schools fostered by the Spanish gov
ernment.
To Divide Nicaragua.
Washington, D. C.—Official advices
received at the state department indi
cate that the Nicarauguan revolution
ists if successful are to separate the
country into two republics, one to
consist of the Caribbean states, and
the other of the Pacific coast states.
Newsy Paragraphs.
Among the more important features
of the aggressive program adopted by

ing meothers during sickness or dis
ability, the eight-hour day for women
workers and the elimination of night
work, protected machinery, sanitary
workshops, separate toilets, more
women as factory inspectors and a
minimum wage scale.
The Illinois food commission start
ed a crusade against dealers deceiv
ing the public with artificially colored
and smoked fish hams, bacon, sau
sage and other edibles. Examination
showed that most of the “salmon”
in the market was carp from the Fox
river and other near-by streams. They
were first given a bath of pink and
then subjected to treatment in “li
quid smolke.”
Ruth Bryan Leavitt has announced
her candidacy from the First Colora

MRS. G. DAVENPORT,
Roycefield, N. J.
For the pains of rheumatism there
~is nothing that can equal - ,
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills.
They overcome that nervcus irri
tation, relieve the pain and swelling,
while they have a tendency to aliay
fever. If taken as directed they are
invaluable to chronic sufferers, as.
the weakening effect of pain is less
ened. Try ‘‘them—your druggist
