PREACHER AND HIS
SONS MUST HANG
Georgia Minister Must Die for the Muir
der of the Carter Chill
dren.

Valdosta Ca, July 31.-Rev. J. G..
Rawlings and his two sons, Milton and
Jesse, and their negro servant, Aft
Moore, are to be sentenced to hang for
the murder of the two children of Rev.
w. L. Garter. Leonard, third son, was
convicted with his father, but because of
his youth the jury recommended mercy.
The conviction Of the preacher and his
three sons is the climax OF one of the
most bitter feuds that ever blackened the
fame of Georgia. Rawlings and Carter
are retired Methodist ministers. After
leaving active ministry, they settled near
one another. Trouble soon arose and a
fued developed. They were constantly
having one another in the courts.
Rawlings, after last being hailed to court
openly threatened to eXterminate the
Carter family, and the two Carter chill
dren were murdered in the effort to make
the threat good.
On the night of the tragedy Rawlings
and his boys surrounded Carriers home
and made noise The children came
out and were killed. The Rawlings re-
manned about the house all night, trying
to get other members of the Carter fami-
ly out, and finally tried in vain to burn
the house.
The trial ended at 2 o'clock yesterday
morning, when the jury found Rawlings
guilty. His three sons, Milton, Jesse
as was Alf Moore, the negro, who turned
states evidence
The father-in-law of Rawlings is
wealthy. He says Rawlings may hang,
but he will spend a fortune to save his
grandSOnS.

GRANTS MOTION IN HAT STORE.

fit him.
''The court is in session. he said
gravely, holding a natty effect in straw

The ORIGIN of Sundae.

'Sundae sounds like an East Indian
name for the popular soda fountain
beverage, and most people probably
think that is its origin, but it isn't
says Herrick J. Gray.
THE name originated in New Or
leans and in an interesting manner. A
druggist there whose soda fountain was
an extremely popular resort found him
self one Sunday without the usual sup
ply of tanks, through some strike or
other trouble, or else he was unable to
obtain ice, | forget which. At any rate,
thing but ice cream and sirups, and he
was almost in despair.
"An expert sign maker, he soon had
order to push it properly nothing but
the new Sunday drinks would be served
at his place that day. His patrons were
nothing loath to try the simple combina-
ton Of ice cream and sirups, and others
were attra through curiosity The
new combination made a hit. Before
night it was buzzed about in hundreds
of homes, and the next day the demand
was lively for that new Sunday drink
Gradually other soda fountains began
dispensing it, the request for it con-
tinued, couched in the same form, how
ever, and it wasn't long before it's use
in advertising caused the substitution of
an for the y, probably because it
looked better; and there you have the
whole story. Not as romantic as if it
were a tale of India, but still not unin-
teresting. What do you think psf.

Voice from Arkansas.

Cleveland, Ark, July 31.-((Special.(
Nearly every newspaper tells Of
some wonderful cure of some form Of
Kidney Disease by the Great American
Remedy, Dodd's Kidney Pills, and this

that Dodd's Kidney Pills rescued him
from a life of suffering and he wants
the public to know it. Dodd's Kidney

PHENOMENON DEADLY.
Two Drowned Near Lake Superior in
High Sea Caused Mys-
teriOuSlV

Stephenson, Mich, July 31.-[SpeciaI.
"A phenomenon which will be investi-
gated by scientific men was noted at
Lac la Belle, on Lake Superior, at tie
drowning of Herman Tinkus and Joseph
Barrett. 1t was the unusual roughness
of the water Of the lake, which came on
with startling suddenness, at time
when there was not a single breath of
wind.
Lake Suddenly Boils Up.
When the two victims and their two
companions went into the water to swim
the lakes surface was like glass. There
was not a ripple on the water and not
even a zephyr was blowing. In a few
minutes after the two boys went under
to their death sea came up on the lake
but no wind was blowing and there was
apparently no agency to dash the water
to such fury.
It was with utmost difficulty that the
graphing party could keep their places
in the boat to carry on the search for the
bodies.
William Willis, brotherin-law of the
Tinkus boy, was present and he vouches
for the truth of the statement that the
lake was violently agitated and that the
condition was not due to any wind. Old
residents of Lac Ia Belle, fishermen who
know the lake like brook, declared that
never before had they seen the lake in
such a commCe con.
The place Where the boys drowned
was a popular swimming place and as
far as can be learned this was the first
accident to occur there.

OCEAN LINER ON FIRE.
Teutonic, Lying at Her Dock in New
York, Is Swept by
Flames

New York, July 29.-The White Star
Atlantic liner Teutonic was badly dam
aged by fire last night, and may not be
able to resume its trips across the ocean
for some time.
During the fire three members of the
crew found themselves hemmed in by
the flames and were carried to the pier
III an unconscious condition by the fire
men. The fireboat Mcclellan and the
fire engines threw water on the flames
for more than an hour.
The fire, presumably due to defective
insulation, started in the electricians
room. So rapid was the spread of the
fire that John Burns, the Scotch store
keeper, was cut off from escape from
the storeroom, the fire feeding on the
woodwork. His plight was the first in
dication the firemen from the land had
of the location Of the fire, for when
they arrived he had his head out Of the
portfolio and was calling for help. His
situation was like to that of many of
those burned in the big steamship fire
at Hoboken. He could secure fresh air
by putting his head out of the portfolio,
but could go no further to escape the
flames.
To reach and save Burns was the
first endeayor of the firemen. Burns
cries aided them in finding the place,
and it was not long before their hose
was playing in the storeroom.
The engine rooms gave them much
trouble. The flames had encircled the
cylinders, eaten away most of the outer
coating of woodwork, and were we'll
within the three-inch covering of felt
between the wood and the steel. There
was little else to catch fire, but the fire.
men found that the fire in the felt re-
sisted water stubbornly.
Firemen declared that the engine
room was charred and that the damage
to the electricians room was consider
able. 1t was announced by one of the
officers that the fire would not inter
fere in the least with the departure of
the liner at it's next sailing time,
Wednesday.

YELLOW FEVER IN NEW YORK.
More Cases Discovered on Ships from
New Orleans.

New York, July 31.-Symptoms of
fever, the nature of which has not been
determined, were discovered today on
the steamer Proteus, direct from New
Orleans.
Even while the health officials at quar-
antine thought the steamer to be free of
fever, the fever symptoms were develop
ing in four children. The fve-day limit
which yellow fever cases develop was
within three hours of it's end when
Health Officer Doty announced that the
Proteus had no abnormally high tenn
peratures on board. At the end of the
time limit another test caused four
children to be transferred to Hoffman is
land for inspection for the cause of few
er which had just appeared. Three
adults accompanied them TO the deten-
ton h0spitaI. The proteus proceeded to
her dock with the remairlng passengers
and all members Of the crew. Great
care was exercised when the steamer
sailed from New Orleans. -Four cabin

Find Fever Case.
One possible case of yellow fever,
which his baffied all the rest for twenty
four hours is reported at the detention
hospital today This man is Vincent
NovO,a stoker on the Seguranca Two
very doubtful cases remained up to the
very end of the twentyfour hour blood
tests which were made on the ten mem
bers of the Seguranca's crew immuned
at the pesthouse last Saturday. One of
this pair, Thomas McGill, ships stew
ard, was declared free from faint of
yellow fever at the expiration of the
time limit today; but Noyo's case de-
manded additional tests.
Health Officer Doty announced that
these tests would be completed today
and that he would hazard no opinion
about the stoker who is a very sick man
until the examination was complete.
VIII Soon Be Free.
Of the seventeen persons taken off the
Seguranca all escept Novo are out of
danger. Besides the three cabin pas
sengers previously released, three more
of the four remaining suspected passen-
gers were discharged today. The re-
naming passenger will be set free to-
morrow. Six of the members of the
crew who were taken to the hospital
convalescent on Saturday are reported
with normal temperatures and will also
be released tomorrow.

ADVISE TO THE CAR.

Wants Too Much.
TO THE CAR.

Berlin, July 29-The foreign Office
taking cOgnizance of statements from
st. Petersburg, particularly those pub
lished in French and English journals,
authorizes the Associated Press to say
that Emperor William in the interviews
off the island of Bjoerke, not only did
not encourage Emperor Nicholas to con-
tinue the war, but gave his influence
directly in favor of President Roose-
velt's peace policy.
Car Asked for Meeting.
The foreign office again. with the ut
most positiveness, says that the meet
ing took place On the wish of Emperor
Nicholas.
Russian Press Warlike.
st. Petersburg, July 29.-The tone Of
the Russian press grows more Warllke
as the peace conference draws nigh and
the government on all sides is urged to
resist humiliating demands, even at the
cost Of continuing the war. Peace on
the Japanese terms as outlined by Mr..
Sato," says The Russ, which is the first
paper to comment seriously on the Sato
interviews, "can only be an armistice.''
Japs Must Be More Moderate.
The Russ, which has now the largest
liberal following, finds the Japanese de-
mands far from moderate and sees little
chance of the conference ending success
fully if Mr.. Sato has correctly stated the
japanese position, but it appears to be-
lieve that Baron Komuras spokesman is
acting ION his responsibility" or scents
possible bluff to pave the way for The
acceptance Of actual and more moderate
terms by Japan.

SIX KILLED BY BOLT.
Lightning Is Fatal to Bathers and Sight
seers at Coney Island, New
York

New York, July 31.-During a heavy
storm lightning struck in the midst of
scores of bathers and sghtseers at Co
ney Island. Five persons were killed
outright and twenty-eight others were
injured, all of them being knocked sense
less. Eight of those rendered uncon-
scious were seriously hurt and had to
be removed to hospitals.
At the same time a bolt struck q ce
dar tree at Gravesend beach, a short
distance from Coney Island, killing Hen
~ RalzaideI of South Brooklyn. His
son. William, - years old; David Nc
Cauley, and John Appel were shocked.
Physician and Child Die.
Dr. Frank F. Brown and daughter,
Eva, of Jamaica, L. l., were drowned
at Manasquan, n. j., in the sight Of
Mrs. Brown and another daughter and
hundreds of people who were on the
gone in bathing with Miss Josie Todd.
When the swimmers attempted to return
to shore they found it difficult, and
called for help. A boat was sent out,
and all got in, but the trio were ex-
hausted. The water was rough and
while the boat was being drawn to
shore it was overturned and its occu-
who was still weak, tried to save his
daughter, but hadn't enough strength,
and he and his daughter sank. Miss
Todd was saved.
Two Thousand in Peril.
Two barges, carrying an excursion
party numbering about 1000, towed by
a tug, came perilously near being dashed
on the rocks at North Yonkers last
night at the height of severe rain and
wind storm. A Yonkers tugboat which
hurried to the rescue alone prevented
disaster.
The excursion party hailed from He
boken, n. J.. After a day at RiverView
Grove, opposite Yonkers, the crowd
boarded the barges for the return down
the time and only a short distance from
the grove the engine on the tug stopped
suddenly. Every effort to start it was
futile.
Meanwhile the two barges and the
tug drifted northeast toward the
YOnkers shore, where it was seen that
the tug had lost control. The captain
whistled for help and a large number of
small river craft responded.
Panic Is Averted.
A launch was quickly dispatched to
Yonkers and summoned another tug.
When the latter reached the excursion
party, women and children were badly
frightened, but owing to the efforts of
the crews of the barges and the constant
playing of the band, order was pre-
served.
The tug made fast to the barges and
nulled them out into the river when they
were within 200 yards of the rocks

result the employers association, it is
said, may close the doors to thousands
of their former employees who were to
have been re-engaged today.
The strike era, with it's police guard
ed wagons, also will continue indefinite
ly.
All manner of protests from other
transfers locals failed to shake the coal
