ANOTHER PELLAGRA VICTIM
DAUGHTER OF SUPREME COURT
JUSTICE DIES OF 1T.

Pellagra, the rare disease which is
battling the physicians of this coun-
try, claimed it's third victim when
Miss Sue Woods. 80 years old, of
Meridian, Miss, a daughter of Jus
tice Woods of the supreme court of
Mississippi, died at the Presbyterian
hospital in Charlotte, n. c., a few
days ago.
Miss Woods had been under obser-
vat:on and treatment at the hospi-
tai for three weeks, and physicians
travelled many miles to view the I'M
fortunate woman and take opportu-
nifty to study the strange malady.

DR.. Babcock states that there are
probably 200 cases of the malady in
the southern states, but it is only
recently that it has been definitely

cases have excited widespread inter-

GEORGIA is WAY BEHIND
HER CONTRIBUTION To DEMO.
CRATIC FUND is SMALL.

Appeals 80 Far Have Not Been Gem
erously Met, and All Told Will
Perhaps Not Exceed $1,000.
FROM all accounts Georgia is re-
markably behind the other states in
the matter of contributions to the
national democratic campaign fund.
Inc subscription of Georgia demo-
crats have not only been scant. but
small IN amount. One contribution
OF $40 is recalled, but the others
nave run from 81 to $40. There
was one contribution of 500 an
nounced, but it was made by cor
poratlon chartered under the Geor-
ga laws, and when attention was
called to the law prohibiting. con-
trlbut1ons by corporations nothing
more was heard from it. Whether
1t reached the treasurer of the ma
tlonal committee is a matter of con-
siderable doubt.
1t is impossible to give the exact
amount contributed by Georgia dem
ocrats to the national campaign fund,
but those who have been watching
the matter estimate the total of the
contributions at not more han $1,000
all told. According to the recent
announcement of Chairman Norman
II. Mack individual democrats in
fifteen states have given from $500
to $4,000 each.
Rivalry Did Not Swell Fund.
In view of the intense rivalry
Whlch exists between the two factions
OF the democratic party in Georgia,
and as result of which their lead
ers are always playing for points in
the national game, it would appear
that evidence of material interest in
the campaign would be somewhat
more extensive. But it is apparent
! that this rivalry does not extend to
the pocketbOOk. There has, so far,
/ been no effort to see which one of
the factions could contribute the
greatest amount to the expenses Of
the national campaign.
Appeals made to Georgia demo-
Gratis to assist in the work have thus
far fallen upon deaf ears. But the
leaders of both wings of the party are
still strinkingly in evidence assert
ing their loyalty.
Whether Georgians have more
calls upon them for public contribu-
lions than do citizens of other states
! and are, therefore, inclined to hold
back, or whether they are indiffer-
ent to this particular request, can
only be surmised.
Likely to Be in Back Seat.
Indications all now point to the
fact that Georgia will be found in
rather back seat when publication
is made of the contributions to the
national democratic fund.
Democratic leaders express them
selves firm in the belief that Geor-
gia will give Bryan and Kern a big
/ ger majority than the state has ever
given the national ticket.
At the same time Georgia IS not
giving them the campaign cash, and
the fact has been noticed at national
headquarters. Perhaps it would be
remembered, too, in the event the
democracy should chance to win.

WITH "OLD FOLKS AT HOME
Neighbors at Lincoln Gave Mr.. Bryan
a ROusing Reception on His Re-
turn From Eastern Tour.

A Lincoln, Neb., dispatch says:
William J. Bryan tonight met his
home folks and attended monster
democratic rally in the auditorium
in this city, over which he presided.
The principal speaker of the even
ing was Senator Gore of Oklahoma.
Every reference by him to the demo
cratic candidate brought the great
audience to it's feet and the air was
repeatedly rent with cheers.
Mr.. Bryan smilingly bowed his ac-
acknowledgements of the enthusiasm
of his fellow townsmen. 1t was the
first occasion in some time that he
had appeared before them on a plat
form.
Senator Gore and the democratic
candidate were escorted from the
Lincoln Hotel by the Bryan Guards,
headed by drum and fife corps, and
the two received a warm reception
as they rode through the streets to
the auditorium building. At the
close of Senator Cores remarks Mr..
Bryan spoke briefly, expressing his
thanks for the interest manifested
in him and touching on few Incl
dents of the campaign.

Presidency as Party Asset.

Mr.. Bryan gave out the following
statement today:
When l criticised the president
for using an office which belonged to
all the people as a party asset l did
not know that / was using language
so much like that which had been
employed before, but my attention
has been called to an editorial in
the New York Tribune of Oct. Is,
1882. 1t criticised President Arthur
for taking part in the campaign in
behalf of the ticket and says.
Why should he assist in the
campaign of any party? He is the
president of the whole country and
not the manager of elections in any
part of it
This is so completely in harmony
with my criticism that / am glad to
indorse it, although it was not
brought to my attention until today"

Is to make each license very valuable
We also suggest that a license should
not be excessive in price. as expert

retailers to handle inferior goods.
Another suggestion is that the
license shall provide that II the
holder is convicted in a court OF COM

his assistants, for the first conviction,
his license shall be suspended 80
