PRIZE MONEY.
Ju6ge Speer Renders Decision in the
 Adula Case.

Mount Airy, Ga, July 13.-Judge Speer of the United States Circuit Court today handed down his decree distributing the prize money arising from the capture of the British steamer Adula during the Spanish war. Judge Speer considerably reduced the allowance for the officers of the court made by the master to whom the question had been referred and has ordered that the sum of $40, GOO, paid IL Go the treasury of the United States, be dis tributed as prize money.
 The Adula was owned by the Atlas Steamhship Company and chartered to a Spaniard, Don Jose Soils. The capture was made by the Marblehead, Com mander McCalla while the Adula was attempting to run the blockade at Guan- tanamo Bay during the Spanish-Ameri- can war.
 The amount realized on the stipulation given by the owners for the Adula was S5O,00O and this sum. less the costs and expenses of keeping the ship, expense of litigation, insurance, losses from salvage and the like, was distributed one-half to the United States and one-half to the officers and enlisted men of the navy entitled to the prize money.
 The Adula was the only neutral ship condemned during the war and the decis- ion of Judge Speer was twice reviewed by the Supreme Court and once by the President and in all respects confirmed. The case has been in court three years. It Is the first prize case tried in Georgia since the war of 1872

ALABAMA'S ANTI-LYNCH LAW.

From the Baltimore News.
 The Alabama Constitutional Conven- tion took long step forward in estab- fishing the reign of law and order in the South when it adopted an article which provides that the Governor Df the Commonwealth shall immediately insti- ute impeachment proceedings against a sheriff who allows a prisoner to be taken from his custody and lynched. the officer to be suspended from duty pending the trial of the charges
 It Is a fact beyond the possibility of successful contradiction that human life is held too cheap in the South Hot blood demands instant vengeance for a crime, and, especially If the crime be that for which lynching is most fre- quently applied, the mob is none too critical in determining the guilt or inno- cence of the party accused While their passion Is inf1amed, suspicion damns the victim as conclusively as "proof from Holy Writ" and if after he is hanged or burned 1t chances that his innocence Is discovered it apparently makes but lit- tie difference. It Is only one negro more or less, and the mob is just as cock-sure of the infallibility of its judgment when the next case Is called for trial before Judge Lynch.
 But entirely apart from the outrageous injustice which sometimes marks these occurrences and the brutality by which they are always accompanied is the fact that habitual indulgence in lynching bru- talizes a community as hardly anything else can, and reduces respect for law to a most deplorabie condition.
 The effect of the Alabama law will be beneficial. The sheriff must interpose more than merely perfunctory resistance to the mob, and the mob, composed of his friends, must out of regard for him mani fest more consideration than is usually shown when only one poor wretch's life Is at stake.

Vital Statistics Show an Alarming li1- crease In an Already Prevailing
 DIsease-Are Any Exempt7

At no time fin the history of disease has there been such an alarming increase in the number of cases of any particular malady as in that of kidney and bladder troubles now preying upon the people Of this country.
 Today we see relative. friend or an acquaintance apparently well, and In a few days we may be grieved to learn or their serious illness or sudden death, caused by that fatal type of kidney trou- ble-Bright's disease.
 Kidney trouble often becomes ad- vanced Into acute stages before the af- hicted is aware of its presence; that IS why we read of so many sudden deaths or prominent business and professional men, physicians and others. They have neglected to stop the leak in time.
 While scientists are puzzling their brains to find out the cause, each indi- vidual can, by little precaution, avoid the chances of contracting dreaded and dangerous kidney trouble, or eradicate it completely from their system if already afflicted. Many precious lives might have been, and many more can yet be saved, by paying attention to the kidneys.
 It Is the mission of the Age-Herald to benefit It's readers at every opportunity and therefore we advise all who have any symptoms of kidney or bladder trouble to write today to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bing- hamton, N. r., for a free sample bottle of Swamp-Root, the celebrated specific which is having such great demand and remarkable success in the cure of the most distressing kidney and bladder trou- bles. With the sample bottle of Swamp Root will also be sent free pamphlet and treatise of valuable information.
