gia, that being the section of the state where it is considered the Brown follow ing is strongest. He spoke at valdosta Saturday, while on Monday he speaks at Statesboro; Tuesday at Cordele and Thursday at Bainbridge. All of these are considered Brown strongholds, according to reports received here.
 Reports coming to Atlanta indicate that Brown is strongest in South Georgia and in the northern section of the state, while Smith is strongest in the middle tier of counties In many of the counties in the middle section of the state it is reported that there has been little change in senti- ment, and that these will probably give the governor about the same majorities they did two years ago. Exception is made of the large counties, such as Rich mond, ,Bibb and Muscogee, which are claimed by both sides.
 Inspecting Militia.
 Gen. A. J. Scott, adjutant general of the national guard of Georgia, has decided to pay an official visit to each of the 56 com panies. troops and batteries in the state organization His object is not to make
 
 equipment, but to meet with the off, fcers and men and to show them that he is taking a personal interest in each. He visited the Elberton company this week and will visit two or three commands next week. As his office business requires his presence here a large part of the time it will require some months for hnn to complete this round of visits but he proposes to meet with each command be- fore the end of the year for the purpose of talking over the military situation and arousing interest and enthusiasm in the work The official inspection of the troops on the part of the state is now being made by Maj Frederick l.. Palmer, U. S. A. retired, who is attached to the ad- jutant generals office. Reports indicate that the inspections are showing up well.
 Murder Case Appealed.
 Attorney General John C. Hart left the city last night for Washington, where he goes to represent the state in the argu- ment of the appealed case of James s. Yates. convicted of murder in Decatur county and sentenced to a life term in the state penitentiary. Yates is repre- scented by John R. Cooper, well known Macon attorney Yates was first con- victed of voluntary manslaughter, but got a new trial from the state supreme court He was next convicted of murder with recommendation to mercy, which was af- firmed by the supreme court, the court being evenly divided. An even division of the supreme court, by statute in Georgia, affirms the finding of the lower court
 Yates tried to secure his release by habeas corpus before Judge Emory Speer on the ground of double jeopardy, claim ing he could not be convicted of murder after having first been convicted of lower grade of homicide namely, volun- tary manslaughter He also claimed that with the supreme court evenly divided in his case, he should have been given the benefit of the doubt and acquitted. Judge Speer dismissed the petition for habeas corpus and Yates appealed to the supreme court of the United States The hearing was advanced on the docket of that court at the request of the attorney general and the argument will be heard on Mon- day.

GIBSON RETURNS AS
 PORTRAIT PAINTER

Paris, April 26.--( -(Special.) )-Charles Dana Gibson, who has been living here for a few years, has come to the conclusion that New York is good enough for him. He has given up his apartment on the Rue Dubois Da Boulogne and has shipped his art treasures home. He intends to sail within a few weeks
 Upon coming to Paris Gibson gave up drawing his famous girls although the world still clamored for them. Immediate success rewarded his work as a portrait painter and he receivel exceptional honor, being promptly re- ceived in the salon where his first eX- hibit was a portrait of Mrs. Gibson.
 So it is as portrait painter that .4e celebrated creator of the type of American beauty will return to New York and return to stay

Fever and Mosquitoes.

One important feat has already been ae- complished. The yellow fever mosquito. the only kind in America spreading this infection, scientifically called stegomyia, IS very scarce. It is possible to live for weeks on the canal without seeing a sin gle specimen This mosquito is a strictly domestic animal, never found away from .alan. It breeds only in artificial recep- tacles, such as barrels, water coolers bottles, tin cans, etc, in and around hu- man habitatons. Knowing this, it is we'll within the power of the authorities to eliminate absolutely this dangerous in- sect and render a yellow fever epidemic impossible on account of the total ab- Sence of the only agent which spreads it..
 The malaria carrying varieties, included under the general name of anopheles, are also subject to strenuous attack. Usually the species of this group deposit larvae along the edges of slow-fowing streams and stagnant pools, but specimens were also secured from the bottom of an old boat, from an abandoned dump car from holes in trees and in similar out-of- the way spots. 1t has not yet been deter mined whether all of these are instru- mental in carrying malaria and therefore they may furnish a fertile field for inves- tgaton.
 Certain genera, technically called me- garhinus, psorophora and lutzia, were found, which, instead of spreading any disease hostile to man, wage war on their l weaker cousins and at times even on their brothers and sisters. They are canniDas | of their sort. Rather than eXterminate
 mosquitoes of these habits it might be 1 well to cultivate them and to enlist them as allies of the sanitary authorities were | it not for the fact that some of them are l exceptionally annoying biters of man. | kind.
 Mir. Buscks search was not limited l strictly to the canal zone. He made sev- ] eral trips to adjoining places in order
 to cover the territory as thoroughly as l possible The results of examination ol
 the material brought back constitute the first contributions to knowledge of the 1 mosquitoes of Panama in any sense com | plete.

BUSCK STUDIES
 THE MOSQUITO Makes Report on Conditions in
 Canal Zone SHOWS NINETY SPECIES Each of the 90 Varieties Has Habits of Its Own and Most of Them
 Are Bad-Some Don't
 Bite Humans.
SHOWS NINETY SPECIES

Washington, April 26.-(Special)-In or der to determine the species and habits of the mosquitoes of Panama, and thereby to assist III the sanitary war against them as disease carriers, MT. August Busck of the department of agriculture was recent ly sent on a collecting and investigating trip to the canal zone. The material brought back by him has been studied and identified and full report showing 90 separate species known on the isthmus is just published by the Smithsonian in- stitution in its series of miscellaneous collections
 Inasmuch as each species of mosquito, besides being physically different in some respect from every other, has habits of it's own, the necessity of knowing ac- curately and completely just what sorls of mosquitoes nave 10 be coped with, is apparent. Some kinds breed exclusively in artificial receptacles of water such as tin cans and open vessels; others only in hollow places in trees; some in high vines that overgrow the trees; some limit their breeding to notches of bamboo slalks, and a number of varieties are sat
  One of the species carries yellow fever, some spread malaria, and others are in- strumental in carrying other diseases. On the other hand large number of species are entirely harmless. and several do not bite human beings at all.
 Thus aside from the pure contributions 10 knowledge resulting from the trip, this exploration has rendered possible more economic and efficient methods for ex- terminating the disease carriers.
 Mr. Busek spent three months on the isthmus during the breeding time, cover ing the end of the dry season and the carly part of the rainy season, and cured larvae of SS species, of which 5G species were new to science. With seven additional species already known, this constitutes the largest number recorded from any one locality on earth. Most of the material gathered has been deposited in the United States National museum.

Sanitary Methods.

The land about every settlement is cleared by the removal of all brush, un- dergrowth and grass; only shade and fruit trees are left, and these are thinned out to admit sunlight and free ventilation When practicable swamps and lowlands are filled in with some of the immense supply of material taken from the great Culebra cut Then the whole area is drained so that the surface water will run off. Ditches and~slow flowing streams are kept clear of mosquitoes by drippings of oil or of copper sulphate. Swamps and pools are oiled at least once a week. Water barrels buckets and pails must be screened or oiled, and all tin cans must be buried. Even the old cast-off ma chimes brush-covered relics of French oc- cupation, are drained of their puddles of water If many insects infest a camp or town it is fumgated. By carrying cut these methods of general exterminati tion exceptionally thorough results have al- ready been obtained.
 Still greater efficiency may be secured, MT. Busck believes, by turning to use ad- ditional scientific knowledge of the habits of special varieties of mosquitoes found on the isthmus. The opportunities opened about the canal for further enhancing mans knowledge of disease-preVentlng methods are peculiarly favorable, and grasping of them makes for sanitary well fare not only in Panama, but in all the tropical countries of the earth.

Danger Not Realized. f

The passengers on the St. Paul who acted so coolly during the trying few minutes following the collision could hard ly have realized the danger in which they stood. They were assured by the officers who hurried among them directly after the boats came together that there was no danger, but the conditions of the steamers bows, disclosed she lies at , the dock shows that she had narrow escape from meeting the same fate as the Gladiator. As it was, the St. Paul was more seriously damaged than at first sup posed. She shipped d great quantity of water through her broken plates from the moment she backed away from the wrecked cruiser until she reached her wharf, and all her pumps were kept gong to their full capacity.
 The damaged bows of the St. Paul in- dicate that she forced her nose at least % feet through the cruisers side. but for tunately the greatest damage she received was above the water line. The bow post was buckled, while the plates on both the port and starboard bows were crushed Tn and gaping cracks extend along the side.
 Neither Captain Passow nor any of hls officers would discuss the accident, pre- fetring to wait until they can submit their reports to the proper officials. It IS learned. however, that Captain Passow is sorely grieved at the disaster, this being his first serious mishap.
 Had the cruiser been painted any other color than slate she might have been seen earlier, and the collision avoided but Great Britain has decided that her war ships attract less attention when thus painted and what is considered the neees- sity of war purposes has contributed 10 a serious accident.

NUMBER OF DEAD
 AND MISSING IS 28
Fatal Collision Between Gladia
 tor and ot. Paul
SEVERE FLOW TO NAVY
Graphic Account of Disaster To British Cruiser Is Given By J. L. Hills of London-Like Mov-
 ing Picture.

London. April 26.-The total number of dead and missing of the Gladiator's crew as a result of the collision between the American liner st Paul and the British cruiser off the Isle of Wight is 2s Divers today searched part of the sunken cruiser for bodies but were not successful in finding any.
 rhe opinion among shipping men and naval officers and officials seems to be unanimous that the accident was un- aVoidable. being under chances of the sea winch al seamen must risk. The usual naval court and an inquiry by the Board of Trade will be made however. The officers of both ships refuse to discuss the affair. until they have given their tes- timony officially.
 All witnesses of the disaster agree prac- tically that both crews behaved as well as possible. Coming so soon after the loss of the torpedo boat destroyer Tiger, which WAS sunk by the cruiser Berwick off the Isle of Wight on April 3 last 36 men being drowned. the sinking of the Clad iator is a severe blow to the British navy.
 Graphic Account.
 lHAclcSllllS QtleiliS COIlttlBilS tue Col- llsion and the rescue of the men of the British cruiser were told today by various passengers on the liner. J. l.. IIillis of London, speaking of the delay in lowering boats from the St. Paul, said;
 In response to our offer of assistance, the captain of the Gladiator replied that it was not needed. That accounts for the fact that some time-it seemed to me about 20 minutes-elapsed after the col lision before the St Pauls boats were put in the water. At that time the cruiser was turning turtle. Some of the blue jackets on board of her cried, Lower your boats As the vessel heeed over We could see the blue jackets climbing to the uppermost side, and those who failed to get a secure hold slipped into the water.
 "The discipline on the Gladiator was magnificent We could see every man at his post. There was no excitement on either ship. One would have thought that it was a moving picture instead of real disaster"

The Collision.

The American line steamer St. Paul and the British cruiser Gladiator collidod yesterday afternoon off The Needles Tn a binding snoWstorm. Thirty live or those aboard the cruiser are said to have per ished. but no lives were lost on the liner.
 The Gladiator was beached near Tar mouth to save her from sinking entirely. The St. Paul steamed slowly back to Southampton her bow badly damaged and leaking badly, although the water-tsht commandments averted the danger or laundering.
 One of the severest blzzards for this time of year that has occurred for many years was raging when the St. Paul put out from Southampton at noon and head ed for New York
 dense blanket of snow enveloped the liner and those on watch could see scarcely a boats length ahead The pas sengers had been warned to stay in the cabins, and were gathered for the most part in main saloon.
 In the meantime the Gladiator had left Portland under orders to proceed to Ports mouth Her course lay directly across that of the St. Paul.
 In much the same way as the liner, the Gladiator was groping along through the snow when there came cry of alarm from the starboard bow watch
 Those on the Gladiator bridge at the same moment saw the St. Paul loom odt of the SHOW to starboard.
 An alarm was sounded simultaneously aboard the St Paul and from the bridges of both vessels tine signal was flashed to the engine rooms: Full speed asternH
 If was too late. Lifted on the crest of giant wave the St Paul struck the cruiser squarely amidships.
 There was a momentary grinding crash as the sharp prov of the liner plouSheu irtn fba NritaiS of the smaller vessel.
 The cruiser was heeled far over from the impact. Then a rccedng wave tore the two vessels apart and water began pouring into the innermost parts of the cruiser through the immense hole that reached far below the water line.

PRISONER MAKESH|S ESCAPE THROUGH
 GAR WINDOW
ON HIS WAY TO YUMA LEAPS FROM TRAIN AFTER
 FILING CUFFS

YUMA, Oct. 30.--The deputies bring. ing the territorial prisoners from Globe lost one of the number near Gila Bend. The man who made his escape was An tonic Escajsda, who was convicted of res sting an officer of the law and sen. tenced to four years in tho pen. He was chained to fellow convict on the train, and with deputy sitting in front and another behind him. So cleverly did he do his work that the man beside him never had suspicion of what was going on. Escajada sat on the outside seat with his coat thrown across his knees. It is supposed he raised his leg, under cover of the coat, and used three-eornered file rapidly whilo the train was in motion. He did clean and quick job, as the schaek- les were placed on him but a few hours before h's escape. The train stopped at the switch near Gila Bend; directly it started to move, the prisoner made one flying bolt through the window, and before the engine could be stopped, has disappeared in the darkness. The dep uties in charge turned the bunch over to the care of sheriff Livingston to bring into Yuma, and left the train at the first station to give chase to the fugitive.

Stomach troubles would more quickly disappear if the idea of treating the cause, rather than the effect, would come into practice. A tiny, inside, hid. den nerve, says Dr. Shoop, governs and gives strength to the stomach. A branch also goes to the Heart, and one to the Kidneys. When these "inside nerves fail, then the organs must falter. Dr Shoop's Restorative is directed speci fcally to these failing nerves. Within 4s hours after starting the Restorative treatment patients say they realize 2 gain. Sold by Palace Pharmacy.
