s2On.nOO Libel Suit.

DR.. r. V. Pierce's company, The
Worlds Dispensary Medical Associa-
ton, of Buffalo, N. Y, has brought a
suit for libel against the publishers of
The Ladies' Home Journal, of Phila-
delphia, for 100000 damages. The
sworn complaint has been filed in
the clerks office at Buffalo, N. Y.
1t appears from this that The Ladies'
Home Journal in a recent number
published an attack on patent med
icines. This article charged that the
Well-known remedy, called Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription" con-
tanned seventeen per cent. of alcohol,
also certain drugs, and that these in
gradients made the medicine harmful
and dangerous. The sworn complaint
shows that the above statement is
wholly and absolutely false in every
particular, and that the medicine con-
tains no deleterious ingredients what
ever, and none of the ingredients stated
in the article so published, being made
of certain extracts of medicinal plants
and roots-harmless to the most deli
cate constitution.
When called upon, DR.. V. Mott
Pierce, an officer of the company said:
I'm a recent article, The LADIES,
Home Journal made this wholly UNI
founded attack upon our remedy.
The charges made against our medi-
cine are absolutely false, as the COM
plant in our suit shows. We find it
hard to understand how a reputable
magazine of the high standing and
enormous circulation of the Ladies'
Home Journal should make such a
damaging statement without taking
pains to ascertain the facts. The
remedy, Doctor Pierce's Favorite
Prescription is so we'll and favorably
known, and has such a wide sale,
that we could not afford to allow such
a charge to pass unanswered. The
fact is the 'Favorite Prescription is
composed of extracts of medicinal
plants, roots and herbs, which would
not harm the most delicate system.
It is a false and unfounded attack
upon the good name and repute of our
company"

DISPUTE OVER MORE
OR LESS" Is SETTLED.
Christopher Gives $3.50 for Quit
Claim Deed 20 4 Feet.

Christopher Gives $3.50 for Quit
Claim Deed 10 Feet.
A compromise was effected yesterday
in the case of Fileb Wachstein against
Beckett, Christopher, and others, which
makes final disposition of the case.
By the terms of the settlement Mr..
Christopher pays Mr.. Wachstein $500
for the disputed four feet of land, and
in return receives a quit claim deed.
The property was originally bought
by Mr.. Wachstein from Mr.. Beckett
with a frontage of 80 feet, more or
less" Measurement of the land show
ed that the frontage was only siXty-siX
feet. Suit was instituted against Mr..
Beckett to recover the four feet, but
before the case was settled, Mr.. Chris
topher bought the adjoining property
to Mr.. Wachstein, from which the four
feet would necessarily have to be de-
Quoted If Mr.. Wachsteins contention
was sustained.
Suit was then brought to mike Mr..
Christopher a party to the action
against Beckett, but a decision of the
court went against this. 1t was under
stood that the matter was to be ap-
pealed and Mr.. Christopher in order to
be able to build at once on his land,
held a conference with Mr.. Wachstein
and the agreement was reached.

ORDINANCE NEEDED
FOR BUILDING LINE.
Only Way in which the MATTER Can
he Regulated.

Only Way in which the MATTER Can
BE Regulated.
The remarks of Col. George A. Mer-
Ger before the Georgia Historical So
ciety regarding. the establishment and
maintenance of building line in the
city, caused considerable discussion
yesterday. The only way in which the
matter can be regulated, according to
Col. Mercer, is by the passing of an
ordinance, determining the line on
each street.
In illustration of his point Col Mer-
Ger told of the building of his own
home on Whitaker street, and of the
building of the adjoining properties.
When he built his own home he placed
it back twenty-five feet from the
street. Other properties adjoining
were, through his influence, built back
a similar distance. Finally, however,
one person declined to build back the
same distance and the beauty of the
street was spoiled.
The only way to regulate the mat
ter" said Col Mercer, lis by passing
an ordinance defining it on each street.
New York, Chicago and other large
cities have such an ordinance, and
there is no reason why Savannah
should not have one. 1t could be made
effective on all new streets where lots
are purchased and the erection of
homes contemplated"
The idea of Col. Mercer has met with
considerable favor in all parts of the
city, especially by those who take an
interest in the beauty of their home
city. 1t may be that the matter will
assume definite shape and be present
ed to Council in the form of a petition
signed by a number of citizens.

TEARS OF WIDOW
SAVED HER HOME
AT FORCED AUCTION SALE.
BUSINESS MEN WOULD NOT BID
AGAINST HER.

Bankers, Real Estate Dealers and
Spectators stood by and Saw
House sold to widow at Much
Less Than They Were Anxious to
Pay-When 1t Looked Like Mrs.
LoGnn Was Going to Lose Prop
erty She Broke Into Tears.
The tears shed by Mrs. Kate Logan,
widow of the late Hugh Logan, saved
her home for her at the auction sale,
which was conducted yesterday after
noon.
When it was seen how the widow
was moved at the thought of losing
her home a bid which had been made
higher than hers, was Withdrawn and
others refused TO bid against her. 1t
was an interesting scene and one likely
to restore confidence in human ma
ture.
Men who had a minute before been
bidding against each other in strenu-
Gus fashion for other portions of the
property stood by silently and saw the
house and lot that had been Mr.. and
Mrs. I.ogan's home knocked down to
the widow for much less than 1t was
worth.
widows Tears Effective.
Before the sale was started, most
of the bidders were told that the wild
ow desired to bid on the home.
Most of the men TO whom this was
told laughed at the idea of their not
bidding against the widow, but when
the time came, and Mrs. Logan broke
into tears, their better nature assert
ed itself and not one of them would
bid.
A prominent business man. Who had
gone to the sale for the purpose OF
bidding, said afterwards he believed
the house and lot would have brought
81, 900 or $500, if Mrs. Logan had not
been bidding He wanted to pay ST.
800 for it himself, but he would not
bid when he saw how much Mrs. Lo-
San wanted to retain her home.
Mrs. LOEan's Bid Raised.
Although a majority of those at the
sale had been told that Mrs. Logan
wanted to buy in the place, those ar
irving late had not. A number OF lois
were sold first and then the house was
put up.
who had been asked not to bid because
she wanted it, had no idea of comply
ing with the request, but, one and all,
they waited for another to start.
Some of the late arrivals, however,
who knew nothing of the request, soon
relieved the strain. A bid of $1,4OO was
announced and others were preparing
to bid more, when Mrs. Logan broke
into tears.
The man who had made the bid was
told that she had wanted to retain the
home and all had been asked not to
bid.
Didn't Mean TO DO II.
II didn't know it," he exclaimed.
Its all right" exclaimed John j.
Archer, who was conducting the
auction.
But the man instead upon with
drawing the bid.
The sale was then started over at
$1,000. and a man in the crowd bid 1t
in for Mrs. Logan at SLIPS.
There were bankers. real estate men
and spectators in the crowd all eager
to get a bargain, but none of them
would bid against the widow.

Trying to Buy Land from City, but
Committee Works Slow.
At another meeting of the Committee
on City Lots and Opening Streets,
which is now known unofficially as the
Electric Committee" yesterday after
noon the members failed to make up
their minds in regard to the bids on the
old waterworks tract of land. Mayor
Myers met with the committee. The
bids are now under advisement and the
committee will again be called together
soon by the Mayor.
IT is learned that the bidders for one
of the lots propose to start a new fer
tilizer factory here. The new company
proposes to erect a large factory to
compete with the other fertilizer fac
tories in this section. The Virginia
Carolina Chemical Company wants to
buy the land next to its plant, so that
the plant can be enlarged.
