LITTLE RED DEVILS. Mind Makes Peculiar Things.

Coffee almost kills some people before they are willing to admit that coffee is really the cause of the trouble. Yet 1t is easy to break off the habit providing Postum Coffee, well boiled. is served in its place.
 A lady says: After coffee drinking had become a habit with me l experienced sense of faintness in the stomach with lassitude and dullness of the mind. This was accompanied with severe pains in the region of my liver.
 Gradually my health failed and be- came thin and a nervous wreck, having sick headaches every day. Then insom- nia set in and I suffered for four years such torments as those who have been through the experience know of. At nisht I would grow so nervous over the continual distress in my stomach that would imagine hundreds of little red devils had strings attached to the back of my stomach and were trying to pull it ort I was compelled, at times, to take Iaudanum to relieve the distress and cramps.
 This condition lasted with some varia- ,iop for about three years. l tried various nbvsicians and finally was advised to try leaving off coffee; this l thought could not he done. I was finally induced to give mn coffee and use Postum and l be- gan to get well.
 When I recovered and thought l was well enough to go back to coffee again l tried it, but after using it short time rhe old stomach trouble came back and threw the balance Of the coffee in the stove. There has never been grain or the old fashioned coffee Tn the mousse since and never wil'bs as long as am running it.
 Postum Coffee is delicious when made according to directions and served not with good cream and some sugar. me whole family use it and enjoy it greatly. ] have gained 41 pounds in the last year and my nerves are fast becoming thlns of the past I sleep perfectly all nlght and am a we'll woman. thanks to Eos tum" Name given by Postum Co., Battle

CoRman Testifes.

R. D. Coffman, charged with killing Rev J. w. Bradford at Brookside, this county. last December, went on the stand in his own behalf this morning. His story was practically the same as when he was on the stand during the preliminary trial and habeas corpus hear ing He repeated the statement that he was on his way to his office when he met MT. Hunt, who told told him that MT. Bradford wanted to see him. The wit ness said that he went directly to the parsonage in response to this message and that when he arrived he was invited in by MT. Bradford. After he got inside MT Bradford began abusing him. call ing him a lying puppy and at the same time he grasped him in the collar and showed him backward. A struggle ensued Coffman trying to get out of the door while Bradford held him. During the scuffle a revolver dropped from the pocket of Mir. Bradford, the witness said and he picked it up He said that he then got partly out of the door but MT. Bradford damned the door against him, still held him by the collar and striking at him with something which he held in his hand. In this position the witness said he fired two shots downward. Then Mir Bradford made tremendous pull backward and jerked him partly back into the hall. At this point he fired the third shot and MT. Bradford fell across the hall The defense began this morning to show that the dead preacher was a man of turbulent dispo- sition. One witness testified that Rev. Mir Bradford had at times carried a pistol. but objection to thls was sus- tained.
 The case will last into next week. All juries called for next week have been cancelled, so it is believed that the case will take up the best part of the week.

PRIMARY A LIVE WIRE
CHAIRMAN LOWE DECLINES TO
 DISCUSS IT.
Says There are No Demands for an Immediate Meeting of Commit tee-May Be Called To-
 gether in July.

Birmingham, June 6.-(Special.) )-Hon. Robert J. Lowe, chairman of the State Democratic Executive Committee. when seen today and asked concerning the committee having a meeting in the near future to take steps looking to the com- ing State election. said:
 There are no demands being made for an immediate meeting of the Executive Committee and there will likely be none called until about the first of July or a little later"
 There are no reasons. said he. why the committee should meet earlier than was at first stated.
 As to what the committee will do Mir. Lowe said he preferred not to express an opinion. He said that the question of primary or no primary was hot wire all over the State, but personally he de- sired to make no statement.
 Hon. Jess Stallings of Montgomery, while in Birmingham today, expressed an opinion that the State Committee would order primary for nominations for State officers on the Democratic ticket. He refused to deny that he would be candidate for Congress against Col A. A. Wiley. He was in conversation with men who were lead CTS in the movement against the new Constitution for the State when ques- tioned by reporter. He said that he was in Birmingham today on business of personal nature.
 He said, however, that the people of the State want a primary and therefore he believed the State Committee would order such proceeding. He said that an honest primary will absolutely do away with any probability of two State tickets in the field. When questioned as to his being a candidate for Congress he said that he was not candidate for anything right now but could not tell what he would be doing tomorrow.

DEMURRER FORLOyEJOY|
CoNsTrTUTIoNALITY OF I'M PE..CHMEls | PkoUEEU-Nus
Decision Will Be Rendered in Matter of Demurrer Today--Certain of the Charges are Alleged
 to Be Frivolous.

The attorneys for Hon. J. H. Lovejoy, Probate Judge of Etowah County, who was cited to appear yesterday before the Supreme Court to answer the charge of neglect of duty and overcharging fees in office, submitted a demurrer to the charges on the ground that there was no statute for the carrying into effect of the new constitution. and that no im- peachment proceedings against Probate Judges and similar officers could be car 'ried out until the legislature met and passed the necessary statutes. The demur- Ter was taken under consideration and a ruling will be made upon it today
 The attorneys for Judge Lovejoy also moved to strike from the information cer- tain of the specifications of the charges which they alleged to be frivolous. This motion was also taken under advisement by the court and an opinion will be given today. The arguments of the attorneys for Judge Lovejoy occupied considerable time. No opinions were rendered.
 Judge Lovejoy was cited to appear be- fore the Court for the second time on information filed by certain tax papers The first information, asking for his im- peachment. was withdrawn on the day that Judge Lovejoy was cited to appear as 1t was said that one or more of the siSHcfS WiSHtu tuSlT ndIutS tdken lTOH the impeachment information. After the withdrawal of the original informa- tion a second one was immediately filed with new signers. The names of the tax payers of Etowah County, whose names are signed to the information now before the Supreme Court are Thomas l.. Johnson k. H. King, J. w. Lawrence. J. c. Williams and J. c. Prater. The law requires that the information which seeks the impeachment of public officer must be signed by five bona fide tax payers of the county.
 When the case was called yesterday the legal representatives of Judge Lovejoy sprang surprise in announcing that they desired to file demurrer. The demur- Ter declared that the impeachment pro- eeedings instituted against Judge Love- joy were void because the new constitu- ton displaced the old constitution and the statutes for carrying into effect the old constitution. The demurrer alleged further that there were no statutes in existence carrying into effect the pro- visions of the present constitution touch- ing the impeachment of Probate Judges and similar officers. It was also stated that there could be no statutes carrying the provisions of the new constitution into effect until the legislature had convened.
 Among the specifications alleged to be frivolous were those to the effect that Judge Lovejoy had not kept a bound volume of the census reports: that he had not provided a suitable place for the keeping of the reports, and that he had failed to visit the jail once week.
 If the courts ruling is adverse to Judge Lovejoy his answer to the charges will be submitted and the legal battle will beRin in earnest at once,

A cRuEl. RAGE.

There occurred in Belgium few days ago q horse race which should make all who were responsible for it. from King Leopold down. regret that they are not four-legged brutes instead of two-leggsd ones. The King, it appears. had offered prize to the one making the distance from Brussels to Ostend in the shortest time. We do not know the exact dist anee by private road, but 1t Is a long and rough ride for horse at high speed. There were sixty-one entries. comprising several nationalities, and the race was made without regard to the lives or suf- fsrfngs of the horses ridden.
 As before stated, we do not know the exact distance, but one account we have seen states that after passing the e2 1-2 mile point the hardest part of the ride began" and then we, are told that the horses began to fall exhausted. three dropped dead, another fell and was shot by its rider to put it out of misery. the winning horse died soon after the race was finished, and other details of like kind. all of which Is certainly revo1ting to humane persons. The King who of- fsred the prize, and the man who won 1t may be proud of their achievement but 1t occurs to us that society for the preyention of cruelty to animals should be ahie to get in some good work in Brussels. By the way. the winner made if in six hours and twenty minutes.
