Jacksonville Fla. June S.AThere was
filed in the Office Of the clerk Of the United
States court this morning the transcript of
record from the state circuit court of
Polk county in case that promises to be
decidedly sensational. The case is a suit
for $4,000 damages brought by John ]
Patton, Jr against the Southern Express
Company ct al. in which the plaintiff al
leges that on April IA, 1897, the Southern
Express Company was party to a con-
spiracy against the plaintiff, whereby on
that day, the plaintiff WIS assaulted by four
men, knocked down and beaten, bruised
and kidnapped, and that rope was put
around his neck and an attempt made to
hang him. Through the intervention of
other persons, he escaped and his assail-
ants who to him are unknown, also made
their escape. He further alleges that on
the same day. he was again assaulted by
one Burton, who falsely arrested him.
Early this winter the Southern Express
office at Barlow was robbed, and although
not alleged in the bill. il is said that Pat
ton was suspected and that an effort was
made to eXtort a confession from him.

DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Sometimes Follow
Its Excessive Use.

Common soda is all right in its place
and indispensable in the kitchen and for
cooking and washing purposes, but It was
never intended for medicine and people
who use 1t as such will some day regret It.
We refer to the common use Of soda to
relieve heartburn or sour stomach, a habit
which thousands Of people practice almost
daily, and one which Is fraught with dan
ger; moreover the soda only gives tempo
rary relief ana in the end the stomach
trouble gets worse and worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical irrltant
to the walls of the stomach and bowels
and cases are on record where Il accumu-
lated IN the intestines, causing death by
Inflammation or poritonitis.

MIDvILLE'S MURDER MYSTERY.
DIR. J. j. KILPATRJCK ARRESTED
ON SUSPICION.

Detective Bill Jones Thinks the Ply
Stefan Committed the Crime With
the Intention of Marrying Mrs.
SPRINT After the Removal of Her
Husband-The Robbery That Fol-
lowed the Murder Looked Upon by
the Detective as Only n Blind.
Midwife Ca. June S.-Dr. J. J. Kilpat-
rick Of this placed is in jail at Waynes-
boro. charged with the murder of Joe
SPRINT al this place on May 5. The ar
rest was made here yesterday by Detec-
tive Bill Jones Of Atlanta, who is We'll
known in the state by the sobriquet Of the
Swamp Fox. It will be remembered that
Eprintz was found sitting in his chair
corpse with his skull fractured. DIT. Kill
patrick was his family physician The de
fective. who made the arrest claims that
the doctor was in love with Mrs. Sprintz
and wanted her to get a divorce from her
husband so that she could marry him.
Knowing that the divorce proceedings
would be slow the doctor, according to the
detectives theory, became impatient and
decided to hasten matters by killing the
husband. The detective thinks that the
doctor first administered poison, and that
failing to work to suit him, dealt Sprintz
a blow on the head with some blunt in
strument and ended his life. After the
murder Sprintz was robbed Of his diamond
pin and ring and 81, 600 which he had in
his house for safe-keeping, and which be
longed TO DR.. Fitzpatrick. The money was
hidden between the mattresses Of Sprintz's
bed, and the detective claims that the doc
tor was the only person other than SPRINT
who knew where the money was kept.
The prosecution will claim that the
theft of sprntzs effects was only blind
to make it appear that robbery was the
object of the murder. The morning after
the crime Sprintz's keys were found in
the door of the store where he worked
having been taken out of his pocket after
the killing. The store was not entered
and SIS which sprintz had in his vest
pocket, when he was killed, was found on
q table in his house.
The warrant on which the arrest was
made was sworn out by Mrs. Spnntz. 1t
is rumored that she admits having had
some correspondence with the doctor, but
denies any desire to have her husband
murdered. The letters are said to have
been in reference to the divorce suit. It
As expected that she will be the principal
witness for the prosecution.
The prisoner Is 80 years of age and of
very attractive manners. His friends are
confident that there Is nothing in the
charges against him and that he will be
acquitted. On the other hand, the rela-
tives of the dead man are determined 10
push the case to the end.
Judge Fl. D. D. Twiggs of Savannah has
been engaged to assist in the prosecution.
He is an able lawyer and is sure to make
q great fight against the accused.
Mrs. Sprintz is a daughter of Engineer
Ewing of the Central of Georgia railway,
and has relatives In Savannah.

The BIaIOck Committee to Visit the
state University.


state University.
Athens, Ga, June S-The coming of the
Blaloek investigating committee and the
board of visitors together with the report
ed rumors of sensations that are to be
sprung by that committee and the visi-
tors are not disturbing in the least the
friends of the University of Georgia.
Everything will be spread out before
these two bodies and they will be assist
ed in the most sweeping investigation If
they so desire.
The record Of the university for the past
five years has been one of continuous i'm
provement until this year IL has broken
all previous records in every respect. The
general opinion is that the Blalock COM
mittee will find very little consolation in
the investigation OF university affairs.
The exercises at the laying of the cor
nerstone of the new university building
will all be held i'm the chapel, except those
attendant upon the actual laying of the
cornerstone by the Masonic fraternity.
