CITY BREVITlES.

The Morning News has received
specimens of cucumbers raised by Mr..
Elliott Quarterman on a farm near
Bonaventure. They are of that size
that are not too large or too small,
and should be in demand at this sea-
son.
Mounted Patrolman D. j. Cronin,
who was thrown from his mount on
Sunday afternoon while on duty on
Duffy street near the Atlantic Coast
Line tracks, is resting quietly at his
home on East Boundary street. His
injuries are not as serious as they
were at first thought to be and it is
expected that he will soon be able to
be out.
The baseball team of Fort Screven
played game with Brunswick team

game was announced in a telegram de-
livered to one of the soldiers who was
present at the Feltz-Daley bout. He
read 1t to his companions, among
whom it produced the greatest enthu-
siasm.
1t was reported to Manager G. o.
Maggie of the Savannah Electric Conn
pany yesterday afternoon that a white
man had been knocked off a south
bound Barnard street car at Brough-
ton street and badly hurt Mr.. Ma

drunken man had fallen on the track

the story had been circulated on no
better basis of fact than that.

HER GORGEOUS GOWN.

Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt, says the
New York Times, lunched at belmont
co.'s in a purplish blue foulard gown
figured in clusters of white designs
suggested - without being flowers.
The deep applied f1ounce was laid in
pinch tucks some little distance apart;
the tucks extended rather more than a
third of the width of the fiounce. There
were also pinch tucks around the hips,
serving to produce a smooth fit. The
square yoke of the waist was outlined
by inch-wide bands of the silk piped
with white; this yoke was of white
lace and white lace was also used in
the sleeves, which were tucked at the
top, with bagging puffs at the elbows,
drawn into cuffs. Down the front of
the pouching bodice and, also, of the
skirt, ran a double row of white pearl
buttons, the vertical distance between
them being three inches and the hori-
zontal width two inches. Mrs. Wander
bits hat was unusually handsome
and suited her blonde coloring. 1t was
rather wide of brim, with a round
crown perhaps two inches high, and
the brim four inches wide. 1t was
delicate tint of lavender. Small and
irregularly shaped punches of wild
violets of different shades covered the
brim and partially concealed the
crown.

ANCIENT
TORTURE
How it has Been Revived
in Modern Times.

An ancient method of poisoning
criminals was to force them to swal-
low large quantities Of bulls blood.
Bulls blood is really no poison at all.
Yet the prisoner usually died in agony.
This was caused by the coagulation or
hardening of the bulls blood in the
stomach. The pressure of this solid
mass on the heart, lungs and other vital
organs almost always resulted fatally.
That's just like indigestion. If
your food doesn't digest it remains in
hard lump in the stomach. Gases are
formed, which crowd and sometimes
actually displace other organs. Many
cases of supposed heart disease are due
to indigestion. The pressure upon the
lungs interferes with breathing. A dis
ordered stomacheffects the whole body.
BY the use OF such preparation as
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure all this trouble
is removed. Before food can be assimi-
lated into the system it must be re-
duced to proper condition by the di-
gestive fluids. If any of these fluids
are lacking, perfect digestion is i'm.
possible. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure sup
plies the missing fluids. Stomach
troubles can't be cured by dieting.
The system demands both sufflciency
and variety of food. You can't get
we'll or stay well without it. Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure enables the stomach
to take care of any kind of good food.
1t renders dieting unnecessary. 1t
digests what you eat. In this way
it rests the stomach This rest soon
restores the stomach to perfect health.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure helps the
children too. Weak and sickly little
ones thrive on it. 1t never fails.
During the last few years my stom.
ach was In such condition that ]
couldn't retain the food ate," writes
Henry Williams of Boonville, Mo.
1.-TWO months ago commenced taking
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. A few bottles

MT. PELEE STILL DANGEROUS

GeoIOgist Jaggers Gives Results of
His Investigations - Inhabitants
Should Not Return to Volcanic Dis
trict as Yet.
Correspondence of the Associated Press.
Fort de France. Island of Martinique,
July 10.--In an interview with a rep
resentative of the Associated Press,
James ]. Jaggers. Jr., assistant geolo-
gist to the United States Geological
Survey, who has been investigating
volcanic conditions in the West Indies,
said:
Il have been fortunate in seeing
real eruption. The eruption of last
very characteristic one. Mont Pelee
has impressed me as being much more
venomous looking than the Soufriere
of st. Vincent. The question has been
constantly asked me: do you not
think 1t is finished now: Is not the dan
ger over?" l have always answered:
THE mountain at this moment APP
pears calm, and the dust columns that
one sees from time to time are large
ly due to landslides from the crater
into the head OF Riviere Blanche. The
eruption of last night was to be ex-
pected. We may expect many more
before so hot and vigorous steam en-
gine as Mont Pelee comes to rest.
THE greater part of destruction
wrought by the Soufriere in st. Vim
cent was on the windward, or eastern
side, and Mont Pelee is in many re-
spects twin sister to the st. Vincent
volcano. / gave the same advice with
out hesitation at St. Vincent, although
the Soufriere there was much quieter
than in Mont Pelee. l know well that
causing people to move from all these
villages and habitations will produce
great inconvenience, but the alterna-
tive is a risk of human life. When the
mountain is entirely cooled and the
people are protected by a properly
equipped experiment station, with de-
vices to signal danger, they may, with
certain restrictions, return to the vol
canic lands. No city should ever again,
however be built on the northeast end
of the island.
Il do not think that Fort de France
is In any danger from the volcano.
Most of the towns In the West In
dies are equally in danger from tidal
waves. 1t would take an explosion
from Mont Pelee of enormously greater
dimensions than anything that has
happened yet to make a wave which
would harm Fort de France. No evil
dence exists of augmenting violence In
the eruptions hitherto which lead to
the supposition that a Kragatoa explo-
sion is coming here. In comparison
Mont Pelee is rather a small volcano.
This is all l can say about danger"

Atlanta Father Now Has Complaint
Against the Police.
Atlanta, Aug. Al. A. Hickson call
ed at the police barracks to-day and
asked what had been done with the
man who had insulted his daughter.
There was no such case on the docket.
Then Hickson told his story. 1t was
to the effect that young white man
had approached his daughter yesterday
afternoon as she got off car and
made insulting remarks to her. Miss
Hickson reported the matter to a po-
liceman and asked that the man be
arrested. She supposed he had been
taken to the police station. but 1t de-
veloped to-day that the policeman who
was asked to make the arrest let the
man go. Now Chief Ball is investi-
eating the matter. The policeman, it
seems, was not on duty at the time,
so 1t is somewhat difficult to locate
him.
