An interesting fight as to who owns the
right to place label on a gin phosphate,
a label in which juniper trees and iand-
scapes abound is to come up soon be-
fore Judge LumpkiD at Atlanta. 1t is In
the case of Ullman e Co. against AaroN
Bluthenthal and Monroe L. Bickart ana
the Gin Phosphate Remedy Company. II
is asserted that Bluthenthal & Bickart
have been manufacturing a phosphate gin
which they put up in round bottles, but
they are in square cases on which a draD
coored label is placed and on this labei
is a trade mark almost identical with the
trade mark used by Ullman & Co. The pc
titioners ask that Bluthenthal & Bickart
be made to turn over to them all profits
that have been made by them on this
remedy, and that master be appointed
to take an account of the profits. Judge
Lumpkin, after reading the paper set the
case for hearing on Nov. Z.
Macon Telegraph: A painful and seri-
Gus accident happened to DR.. w. F. Fleet
wood Thursday afternoon, from which he
sustained serious injury. He was walk
ing in front of the Western Union Tele-
graph office on Fourth street, when he
slipped and fell. As is well known, DR..
Fleetwood has a broken arm and when
he slipped the whole weight of his body
fell on the broken limb The fall caused
the broken bones in the arm to crush into
each other and to tear and bruise the
flesh, causing most eXcruciating agony
Dr. Fleetwood was carried home, where
he was attended by physicians, who adj
ministered opiates and did all they could
to relieve the suffering of the injured man.
He was resting quietly last night late,
but the doctors fear that the extreme pain
may cause lockjaw. They are hopeful,
however, that he will soon recover from
his prostration. 1t can hardly be hoped,
however, that his arm will ever be healed,
as it was broken about a year ago and
the bones have never grown together.
The case is an interesting one and one
that is extremely rare. When DIR. Fleet
woods arm was first broken 1t was sex
by the surgeons in attendance as well as
it could possibly be done The fractured
bones were put together and firmly bound
up and there was apparently nothing that
could prevent the perfect knitting of the
broken bones together. Weeks passed
and the bones failed to knit. DR.. Fleet
wood grew troubled and had the advice
Of the best surgeons in Macon. The arm
was examined and the bones found to be
| set perfectly together. The flesh of the
arm healed up all right, but the bones re-
! fused to knit. DIR. Fleetwood secured the
| best surgeons obtainable and spent hun
dreds of dollars trying to get his arm 10
knit together, but all to no avail The
| bones have remained separate until now
/ and crate together lOselv DIR Fleetwood
has had to wear his arm I'm splinters ali
| the time to support the injured part The
| fall will only serve to increase the chances
against the ultimate knitting together of
the bones, and 1t may necessitate the am
| putation of the broken arm.
