and educators are wondering at the re-
markable cures made by Prof. Thomas +.
Adkin, discoverer OF the Adkin Vitaopathic
treatment.
Professor Adkin heals not by drugs. nor
by Christian Science, nor by Osteopathy,
nor by Hypnotism, nor by Divine Healing.
but by a simple psychic force OF nature in
combination with certain vital magnetic
remedies which contain the very elements
Of life and health.
A reporter recently talked with Profess
or Adkin and was asked to invite all read
ers Of this paper who are sick or who are
worried by the Ills Of those dear TO them
to write to him for assistance. Some peo-
pie have declared" said Professor Adkin,

powers. This is not so. 1 cure because I

TO AVOID A MOB

Mary billiard, a white woman, who has
lust been tried on the charge of murder
in Fannin. was Wednesday night brought
to Atlanta by Sheriff W. B. Lovingood
and taken to the Tower for safe keeping.
The woman killed VIII Felmett, a rail-
road man, on May 22d. She was con-
victed Of voluntary manslaughter and
sentenced 70 a term of ten years in the
penftentiary. There was considerable
feeling against her and some talk Of a
lynching. as the verdict was not generally
acceptable.
The authorities thought best to take no
chances and rushed the woman to At
lanta at once, though IL Is doubtful IL
there would have been any trouble had
she remained in Blue Ridge, where the
trial was held. From Atlanta she Will be
sent to the state farm for women convicts
at AIilledgeville.
Both the murder and the trial, accord
ing to Sheriff Lovingood, created a great
deal OF excitement as the man killed was
well known.
The Dillard woman bore a bad reputa-
ton Felmett went to her home to see
another woman and when he found she
was not at home a quarrel resulted be-
tween him and the billiard woman. He
was ordered to leave the house and did So
but started back. The woman got a pis-
tol and killed him from the front door as
he was running.
She takes her sentence lightly and talks
OF the killing with unconcern.

CHATTANOOGA, May 2S.-The jury in
the case of Policeman Elijah Brown, who
has been on trial for the past few days
for the murder Of Robert Gleason, South
Chattanooga saloonkeeper, returned YER
dict of not guilty.
The verdict was not a surprise to those
that had heard the evidence and the elo-
quent arguments of the attorneys for the
defense.
About a month ago while on duty IN
South Chattanooga on Sunday as plain
clothes man, under orders from the chief
of police to catch all Sunday whisky sell
ers, he killed Gleason, by shooting him
The evidence showed tat all the saloon
keepers were cursing Brown and making
all sorts Of remarks in his hearing, and
that the man was naturally excited,
though he remained on duty in that part
of the city which is generally regarded as
dangerous territory for any one that the
inhabitants do not approve Of. Brown had
passed up the street, when Gleason came
TO his door leading from the hallway
from which steps went to the upper story
where ne lived, and took Brown inside.

A VOICE FROM Mr.. oUERRY's
OLD HOME COUNTY

To the Editor of the Journal:
It is pleasant to notice that Mr.. Query s
friends have accepted your kind offer to
let his side be heard from in the columns
of your paper, and being resident Of
hisfhome county (Sumter), wish to make
a few remarks-just for the sake Of COM
ing from his old stamping ground.
To the observant it is evident that Mr..
Terrell started out in his campaign to not
mention the name even of Mr.. Query in
any Of his speeches Has he done so yet!
Yes at Forsyth! His managers, himself,
and all his friends ridicule Mr.. Query for
being a Ready card writer" Has any OF
them written card yet! Yes. All Of
them, even a part of his own family.
Does any sane man in Georgia believe
that all this would have been the case had
the program gone smoothly! Not muchi
We know Mr. Terrell and he is a very
nice, genial man, and we know his best
friend. Mr.. Harris McWhorter, who, by
the way. is related TO us, and he is also
a very nice genial slick man. But we do
not want the people of Georgia to trust
this pair, because they are related TO any
body in South Georgia.
Socially they are clever enough, but
politically they are wrong. We are not
electing a governor this year on sociabili-
ty.
1t is a fact that who the railroads, the
trusts and the combines want to be gov
ernor. the people do not want; and who
the people want the combinations, what
ever they are, will try to crush.
Candidly have they crushed Mr.. Guerry
vet? Read their cards, listen at their
speeches, and above all at their quiet con-
fabs, and Judge for yourself. Mr.. Guerrys
backbone is likened to the cutrle fish bone
that is pretty good. Go into any drug

This is common habit in this section of
the state.
Ans: Eating dirt is simply the cultiva-
ton OF a bad habit. and I have never
heard OF any serious injury to the animal
resulting from IL. About the best and
duicket way toSbreak IL up is 20 halter the
mule in his stall and keep him checked
up while at work. Also place in his
trough a piece OF rock salt, and cut a
green poplar pole and place IN the stall
so the mule can eat the bark. Eating dirt

Ans: II your mare is paralyzed II would
be best TO call in the services OF a veter-
mary surgeon II one can be found In your

should be immediate. Sometimes troubles
OF like character are caused from dis

Uses of Salt.

A physician, native of Jerusalem
giving one Of the free lectures inBrook-
lyn schools this autumn, referred to the
Oriental use ofsalt and digressed for
an instance to speak of its medicinal
values.
For example, the following he said
he had found to be an infallible cure for
catarrh of the head. Heat common
table salt and while it is warm take a
pinch morning and night and snuff it
up the nostrils.
One who has been trying the painful
but simple remedy claims to have been
greatly helped already. A gargle of
salt solution is highly recommended by
one of this borough's most noted physi-
clans, who also advocated the use ofse
salt in the bath for some cases of rheu-
matism.
For neuralgia, fill muslin or flannel
bag with salt, heat and apply it to the
affected part.
The salt water gargle taken in time
and very frequently is claimed to pre-
vent many:casesiofso called diphtheria.
Its value for indigestion is observed
in its use in glass of milk or cream,
while a teaspoonful of it in warm water,
once day will relieve some stomach
troubles.
Brine is known to be an antiseptic
wash for wounds or cuts, though the
element of pain is at hand.
Warm water with salt dissolved in it
is good for infiamed eyes.
Still another authority declares that
an occasional salt water wash for the
hair will keep it from falling out.

Big Railroad Work.

The Pittsburg railroads made su-
preme effort on Sunday to clear the
freight blockade which has hampered
their work for weeks past. 1t was esti-
mated that $4,000 cars were moved east
and west on all the roads from Saturday
at midnight until Monday morning
AS result the roads are in better shape
to take care of the new business Monday
than they have been in three months
The movement of the enormous ac-
emulation of loaded cars began on Sat
urday night as soon as the main tracks
were clear of accommodation trains and
was kept up without single letup until
morning, when the tracks had to be
again given over to the use of the pas
senger trains. Engines and crews were
hurried over the roads at the highest
possible speed, and as soon as termi-
nal point was reached the engines were
turned, the fires cleaned and the same
engines and crews started back with
another train of freight. All the local
crews were pressed into servive on
through freight and many of the pas.
senger crews who did not work on their
regular runs were sent out with trains
of freight.
The passenger ongin es.which were OF
light type were in most cases run as
double.headers, and in this way were
enabled to haul train as large as would
ordinarily be hauld by the most power.
full locomotive used in freight service.
The majority of these engines were
given trains of perishable freight. and
on the four-track roads were Put on the
passenger tracks and hurried through
to their destination with the speed of a
passenger train. When they reached
the terminals they were given trains of
a like character and sent back to the
point from which they had started as
sections of passenger trains.

Magnificent Vote.

1t must be gratifying to the many
friends of Major Issac B. Brown in this
section of the state to see the large vote
given to that excellent gentleman for
Secretaty of Internal Affairs. He re-
ceived 2O4, ,237 plurality, as against 142,-
$40 for the head of the ticket, leading
in every county except Berks. The
loWdown personal attacts made by
some of the off-color sheets in this sec
tion of the state were beautifully re-
sented by the Majors former comrades
and neighbors. The Harrisburg Tele-
graph attributes Major Browns hand
some vote to his fine record as Deputy
Secretary of Internal Affairs, supple
mented by his popularity throughout
the State.
