ing of the deputy sheriff on Thursday

vanced cautiously. when the BENEFITS
opened fire on the sheriff's party.
The officers and posse did not fire in
return, acting on instructions from the
sheriff. No inducements for an hour
could prevail upon the Bennett broth
ers to surrender, and they continued to
fire on the sheriff's crowd until their
ammunition was exhausted.
Sheriff Johns determined to arrest
the Benefits at all hazards, and the
cabin in which they were hiding was
finally set on fire. The BENEFITS fed
from the cabin to another, but the
posse set cabin after cabin afire until
twelve had been reduced to ashes. See

OVER WINDSOR HOTEL
Litigation, II Is Thought, Has Been
Concluded.


Americas, Ga, Nov. 21.-What is the
beginning of the end in the Hotel
Windsor litigation of several years du-
ration eliminated this afternoon, when
Special Auditor e. A. Hawkins filed
in the Superior Court his report in
that case, involving property worth
SOS 1000.
The case was that of the Americas
Manufacturing and Improvement Com
pany against c. A. Fricker and Spe-
cial Auditor Hawkins finds in favor
of the plaintiff company. At sale of
the hotel four years ago the bidding
was done by Mr.. Fricker supposedly
for the hotel company, of which he
was a member. but afterwards he
claimed that he represented himself as
bidder, and not the company A law
suit quickly resulted, which may now
end in the finding of the special audi
tor to whom the evidence was re-
ferred.
Much satisfaction is expressed here
over the probable termination of this
celebrated case.

KIND OF NERVE 1T TAKES
TO WIN ON THE GRlDlR0N.
Moral Stamina and Desperate COur-

Moral Stamina and Desperate COur-
age That Makes n Man of the Boy.
In athletic parlance, nerve means a
very different thing from what it does
in the ordinary usage of slang. Nerve
in football means the moral stamina
that is behind a player, the grit, the
pluck, the bulldog courage, the never
men are built of, whether their occu-
pations be on the gridiron or in or
ganizing trusts, and 1t is not a COM
mon quality, although a certain brav-
cry, a bravado often goes by that
name.
weary limbs racked, his brain dazed,
his whole faculties under a fearful
strain; when he lies helpless, almost,
on the ground, scarce thinking that
he can rise for the next play; when
this is his condition and he throws
himself headlong into the play or
makes a dashing tackle or runs, dodg-
ing, plunging down the field, that's
nerve. When a players physical ca
pacity is exhausted and he goes on
playing brilliantly, and apparently
knows no such word as rest be as
sured that he is not getting his second
wind, but that he is absolutely and
only playing on his nerve.
One of the most splendid exhibitions
of this nerve seen on the Savannah
gridiron was that displayed by two
members of the Savannah team in the
game with Georgia. Capt. Cope, in
jured to such an extent that he was
without the power to raise either hand
higher than his waist, suffering mus
cular paralysis for the time, played on
through the game and was the life of
the team. In all of the interference
formations Capt. Cope had been prac-
ticed to lead, but in his condition dur
ing the game this was impossible, but
he did push right in with the team in
the scrimmages.
Frank McIntire also exhibited won
derful nerve in insisting on continuing
in the game. Early in the first half
he was kicked on the head and lay
unconscious for few moments. Aft
er bit he was able to get on his feet,
on going on with the game. Time and
again he would plunge into the thick
of battle. and when the squirming
mass of arms and legs once more as
sumed the shapes of men, McIntire
would be stretched on the ground.
Friends and relatives, the team ply
stefan, and even some of the men play
ing against him insisted on his stop
ping, but he refused and played as
brilliantly in the last five seconds as
he did when the blue line was first
hurled against the red and black for
a ten-yard gain.

What Structure Does to You.

There is one point that 1 have al
ways wished to call to the attention of
men, and 1 find this a good opportun-
ity. It is with regard to bladder trou-
BILE and Sexual Weakness. In my two
generations of experience as special
list in mems diseases have found the
majority of cases of bladder trouble
and sexual weakness in men are due
to structure, varicocele or hydrocele.

mer Many man is depriving him

dozen times at night for no other rea-
son than that he has a structure He
may not even know he has it, yet
there it Is, running his constitution.
Why continue on as you are? Come
to me and ! will cause that structure
to dissolve and pass out with your
urine unnoticed. There will be no
pain or inconvenience, no cutting or
slashing Certain medical ingredients
Of my own discovery will do the work
harmlessly and quickly. If you do not
feel positive that you have structure,
and yet are troubled in some way,
come to my office and let me examine
YOU; there is no cost connected with
it, and whether I tell you that you

ging down your sexual organs and in
terferes with their proper functions.
At first you attach no Importance to
your inability, then you attribute it to
increasing years and reassure yourself
by saying: We'll. I'm not as young
as used to be; 1 shouldn't expect so
much of myself" But that is not the
point; age has nothing to do with it.
The truth remains that you have vari-
cocele, and it is this varicocele that is
at the bottom of your trouble. Now,
sir if you were assured that there was
way by which you could be cured of
the varicocele and at the same time of
your sexual weakness, by a method
that was absolutely harmless and
painless. without knife or surgeons
instrument, would you not have the
Varicocele removed? I am in possess
sion of just such n method as 1 have
here described. When I made it known
specialists everywhere clamored for
the secret of how l was able to cure
varicocele without the knife, as for
ages it had been thought impossible
to cure varicocele in any other way
except by the knife. To-day you come
to me feeling sure that your varicocele
can be permanently cured in a very
short time without keeping you a sin
gle day from your work. MY treat
ment is the only safe one for You to
adopt; 1 am master of the cure of

and hydrocele. If you have to wear

HSdrocele Causes Vital Drains.

Hydrocele is a form of dropsy and
affects the scrotum. It causes drains
and losses and eventually produces i'm
potency. Heretofore it has been
thought necessary to make an incision
into the skin and let out the watery
deposits, but my method does it with
harmless vegetable medicines alone.
Cure the varicocele and your emissions
will stop instantly. The worst case of
hydrocele will succumb to my treat
ment in a very short time. Watch
yourself for the next few days. If
your scrotum has habit of charging
for no reason at all, and at other
times feels fiabby. then you have hy-
drocele. Don't fret and moan; come
to me and have 1t cured, and If you
are in doubt what is the matter with

examined, and for this make no

honor at a very elegant luncheon given
by Mrs. Carl f. Kuehnle on Saturday,

so characteristic of Mrs. kuehnles
hospitality, the guests we're seated at
a round table and were ten in number.
A lace center.piece was laid over yell
low satin. A yellow shaded candelabra
cast sunny light over the table. Cards
nicely decorated in yellow were placed
around the table On the reverse side
question was asked, the answer being
some part of a menu. A five course lun-
cheon was served, the color scheme be-
ing carried out in all the details The
guests had very delightful visit with
their charming guest of honor, Mrs.
Barnett, and also had much pleasure
in visiting with Mrs. John Weiland.
Mrs Kuehnle is an ideal hostess, with
a charm all her own. Nothing could
exceed the prettiness or finer essof the
luncheon.
