ORGANIC CHANGES
The wholesome process of secretion
by the use of Carlsbad Water.

Prof. Hlawazek, an authority
on stomachic diseases says: "What
we have positively ascertained is,
that Carlsbad Water in a high
degree promotes, organic changes
in the system; that principally by
its alkaline constituents, it acts as
an absorbent of fat and as an
antacid throughout the organism,
and that it performs this whole
some action by stimulating, aug
menting and chemically altering
the whole process of secretion"
Beware of limitations. The gen.
uine Carlsbad Water and Carlsbad
Sprudel Salt must have the seal
of the City of Carlsbad and the
signature of "Eisner & Mendelson
Co., sole agents, New York" on
every label.

TOM ALLEN READY TO DIE.
Supreme Courts Refusal 10 Inter-
fere Not a Surprise to Him.

Supreme Courts Refusal 10 Inter-
fere Not a Surprise to Him.
Macon Ga, Nov 15-News was re-
ceived this morning that the state SUI
preme court had affirmed the decision of
the lower court, which denies a new trial
for Tom Allen. Allen has been appraised
OF his fate, and while not entirely sur
prised at the decision, seems to be recon-
ciled to the fact that there is no hope
for him to escape the gallows.
The fight to save Aliens neck has been
one of the most stubborn in the history
of the criminal courts of the United States,
and has attracted widespread attention.
The public has become thoroughly famil-
lar with Aliens case during the three
years it has been running in the courts.
1t will go down on record as a scarcely
less notable case than that the remark
able one in which Tom Voolfolk was the
central figure.
Allen shot and killed Charley Carr, an
entire stranger to him, while he was so
drunk that he knew nothing of the crime
until after several hours sleep i'm a cell
at the Jail When told of the horrible
crime he wept like a child, and refused
to believe he had slain man until his
relatives corroborated the statement. For
several months the doomed man has been
preparing for death. Christian people
have shown much interest in him, and he
has professed Christianity, and says he
has made his peace with God, and is
ready to die. He reads the Bible daily,
and seems to be a devout worshipper of
the lowly Nazarene. Allen will be re-
sentenced in a few days, as the superior
court is now in session.

senator Shropshire Takes Excep-
lions to n Newspaper.
Atlanta, Ga, Nov. Ex-senator Shrop-
shire relieved the monotony of the ses-
sion of the Senate to-day by jumping on
an article in the Constitution this morn
ing. He said that In this article 1t was
stated that the Senate had prepared a
substitute for Mr. Halls convict lease bill
and that the article referred to a meeting
in his house for the purpose of talking
over the convict question. Mr. Shropshire
said the statement was not true, and the
article was calculated to create dissension
between the Senate and the House.
Senator Battle of the Twenty-fourth ask
ed a reconsideration of the Senate's action
last Friday on the House bill by Mr. Cal
win regulating the benefits of debenture' S
or redemption companies. He stated as
his reason for asking reconsideration that
the Senate journal does not disclose what
amendments We're made to the bill, or
whether they were adopted.
Senator Stewart of the Thirty-fourth op-
posed reconsideration of the bill, saying
that his recollection was that the bill
and the amendments had been read and
adopted, and that the object In reconsid-
ering the bill was to kill 1t. On motion
of Senator Stewart the bill was recon-
mitted to the committee on banks.

Rival Factions of the Eagle and
Phenix Mill at War.
Columbus, Ga, Nov. IA red-hot fight
is on between the Woodruff and Ruge fac
tons of bondholders over the reorganiza-
ton of the Eagle and Phenix Manufac-
turing Company. Messrs. Ruge and Wood
ruff were members of the reorganization
committee, but Mr.. Woodruff kicked out
charging that Mr.. Ruge and his associ-
ates were subordinating the interest of the
bondholders to those of the depositors
and stockholders. He issued a circular
calling another meeting of the bondhold-
ers for Nov. % Mr. Ruge wires from New
York as follows: The circular of the Ea-
gle and Phenix mill, wherein Mr.. George
w. Woodruff ventilates his imaginary
grievances by insinuation, is unjust and
misleading, and not warranted by the
facts. 1 advise the bondholders not to re-
spond to the circular. John G. Ruge"
1t is said Mr.. Ruge is a candidate for
president of the company. Mr. Woodruff
is the largest individual bondholder The
two factions appear pretty evenly divid-
ed, and there is fun ahead.
