low and sallow, and they feel tired and
WORKOUT all the time. In a large pro-
portion of cases when ZONES are weak,
rundown and falling of in flesh and
looks, the root of the trouble can be
traced to womanly diseases which under

this is that women who have been cured

have recovered their general health,
gained in flesh and in appearance.

THE STATESBORO INVESTIGA-
TION.

The military court for investigation
of the action of the state troops at
S~tatesboro at the time of the lynching
of the two negroes has been in session
in Savannah for several days. Up to
the present time none but officers of the
militia have testified. They try to
throw the blame upon the sheriff, and
his deputies. They charge hat these
men were in collision with the leaders
of the mob. If what these soldiers tes-
tify to under oath be true there is
shown TO have been despicable conduct
on the part, not only of the deputies, but
OF the sheriff of the county also. Nei-
Their the sheriff nor any OF his deputies
nave yet had opportunity to testify,
statements of h state guard officers
can be truthfully contradicted-such
as hat OF n in command OF the guard
who says at a critical m ne vas
caught unawares by a deputy sheriff
and thrown among the rioters who
says that the sheriff conducted mem
bers OF the mob to the room where the
prisoners were confined n pointed
them out to the lynchers. Notwith-
standing all this the officers in giving
an account of their own conduct show
themselves I'D in very poor light. From
their testimony one is forced to the
conclusion that a they done their
duty the men under them would have
they were guarding.
The Charleston News and Courier OF
yesterday thus sums UP the testimony
so far laid before the court of inquiry:
It is truly a remarkable story that the
citizen soldiers of Georgia are telling in
their own behalf at Savannah. II it fail

The promises are again given the
public of news at an early day OF a
pitched battle in Manchuria- The con-
ditions point more clearly now than at
any time heretofore since the Russians
showed such pronounced disposition to
avoid a decisive engagement to such an
event. Tt is hardly possible for Cen
eral Kuropatkin to escape the Japanese
now. He must either beat a hasty re-
treat or face the enemy with his whole
army.

A HoRRIFIED EDITOR.
He Tried to Cut Down a Space Bill
Only 20 Find IN Special o Clever
for Him.
From Fourth Estate.)


Herbert S. Stone, the Chicago pub
Usher. at a dinner in Washington re-
Gently. described the amusing methods
of a newspaper writer who used to be
one of his friends.
Mr.. Stone said that this young man
wrote Observation-Disclosures for the
press. not OF a news naIure-for which
he was paid a set rate per column.
He was once commissioned to do a
serial story for a Chicago paper. The
story, as it proceeded from week to
week was interesting, but IL contained
many passages like h following:
Did you hear him."
II did"
Truly? %
Truly"
Where"
by the we'll"
When"
Today"
Then he lives?"
II does"
"Ah."
The editor who was handling the
story perceived that the writer. in
%strfnging out his passages SO needless
ly, was making more money per col
m tina was right Accordingly.
sending for the man. he said:
Thereafter, John, we VIII a yoI
by the letters on your serial. We will
pay you so much per thousand letters"
But I prefer to be paid by the col
umn,' the young man objected.
No matter for thai From now on
by letter, and not by column. our
copy will be measured Up.
The young man, looking cr%estfallen
went away, but in the very next install
Inent of his story he introduced a char
acter who suffered, and all through
the chapter were scattered passages
like this:
"B-b-b-b-believe me, s-s-s-sir. I
am g-g-g-guilty. Mummy
m-m-m-mother c-c-committed this
c-c-c-crime."
Your mother, girl"
Mummy m-m-mother."
The editor was Mortified at this
stammering chapter. He foresaw the
Introduction of the suffering girl
throughout the rest of the serial, and
he perceived that in a work paid by
the letter all hose stammerings would
up amazingly.
He liked the story and his rate for
such matter was not. at least, high.
So he sent for the young man again
n payment on the old column basis
was resumed. Thereupon the girl
with the stutter died, and the short,
terse paragraphs all came back again.

While there is so much disorder and
lynching going on in states to the south
of ours it is gratifying to all North Car
o~linians that the people OF Shelby did
not take the law into their own hands
Saturday when their chief OF police
while in the discharge of his duty was
killed by a drunken negro. They had
great p~rovocation, but exercised manly
and law-abiding forbearance.

Judging from the condition Of the

crime must be greatly on the increase

the people.
