ProsideRt-EIect Will Not Give t
 Out Till March
GOV, BROWN VISITS TAFT
Visit Will Be Made By Taft to Colum- bia, Where He Will Attend the Meeting of the State Bar
 Association.

Augusta, Ga, January S,-The Taft Knox cabinet conference is over, and tie Pennsylvania senator is tonight on his way back to Washington. Neither the President-elect nor his adviser will dis cuss the result, and it is strongly hinted by MT. Taft tonight that his cabinet will be made known for the first time when he sends the names of the men who are to compose it to the Senate for confirma- ton, after March 4. however, something more definite regarding this determination may be expected within a few days.
 From the early ending of the conferenco with MT. Knox-he said last night he eX- ected to get away by Sunday, if pos slble-it seems a reasonable conclusion that the Taft cabinet is decided upon. IT this Is the case, 1t Is also undoubtedly true that the men who are to compose that body have already been invited to become cabinet ministers, and their an swers received.
 Asked why MT. Knox's visit had been so abbreviated, MT. Taft said that the consultation had been finished and that he had talked over with the senator a large number of matters, After MT. Knox had gone, MT. Hitchcock had an extended talk with the President-elect.
 MT, Taft said while he was at Hot Strings that it was his desire to have his cabinet announcement co7er the whole cabinet This is understood to be the ad- vice received from MT. Knox on the sup- ject.
 The President today added Co., lumbia, S. c. to the list of southern cities he will visit at the first opportunity after he becomes President. He was invited to attend the annual meeting of the State Bar association there by a delegation headed by ex-Governor Sheppard, presi- dent of the bar association. The meeting takes place on one of the days MT. IaIt expects to be in Atlanta Governor-elect Joseph M. Brown of Georgia and local delegation paid their respects to MT Taft today. The gover- nor-olect is making tour of the state.
 Indiana politics was discussed between MT Taft and Addison G. Harris or ln- dianapolis. who stopped here on his re- turn from Florida.
 Mir Taft was compelled 10 decline d banquet which the Taft club oI Georgla wished to give him here for lack Of time He will tomorrow partake of parDecue q few miles across the Savannah river Tn South Carolina as the guest or the beech Island Farmers club.
 The visit here of William Loeb, Jr.' sec retarv 10 President Roosevelt, has been abandoned. MT. Loeb was to have made arrangements for MT. Taft's Panama trip and his visit was to be made during the Christmas holiday of Congress. MT. Tatt could not give the matter his attention then. As MT Loeb is buslly engaged now the details of the Panama visit nave been arranged by correspondence.
 MT. William Nelson Cromwell has writ ten MT. Taft on the subject on which he was wanted, and it probably will not be necessary for him to comply with MT. ,raft's request for his presence here.

membered and then burned in the church stove.
 Strenuous efforts to discover some mo- tive for the destruction of the carpenter by the minister have proven fruitless. A statement today by Mrs. Carmichael that her husbands sister is inmate of an insane asylum in West Virginia may ex- plain some of the horrible features of the crime, if the authorities suspicious about Carmichael are borne out. Mrs. Car michael also said that her husband was moody and restless the night before he disappeared, and apparently breeding over something.

He qualified this and stated that when he heard the name "Annis' he was seized with impulsive insanity, which reached its climax when the shooting was ended. During the period. the alienist said, Captain Hains knew his victim
 Dr. Clark after testfying at some length, and when asked about certain authorities, stated that there were no au- thorities from his point of view on in- sanity, and that he did not claim to be an authority The confusion and seem- ing conflictons of the alienists served to prolong their cross examination.
 A few witnesses were called in rebuttal by the state late today, when adjourn ment was taken.

INSANITY EXPERTS ARE
 OF LITTLE HELP TO HANS

Flushing, N Y. January S.-The defense in the trial of Thornton J. Hains, as a principal with his brother Capt. Peter c. Hains, for the killing of William E. Anns, came to close this afternoon and before court adjourned Justice Crane announced to the jury that they would be undoubtedly able to conclude their labors about the middle of next week.
 The defense placed two alienists on the witness stand today-Dr. l.. s. Manson and Dr. L. Pierce Clarl1-to tell the jury that Capt Peter c. Hains suffered from impulsive insanity when he shot Annis. Their cross examination was not calcu- lated to aid the defense, both medical experts disagreeing in some main essen- tias of their testimony. Dr. Manson was recalled to the stand to qualify state-

 FROM BIRMINGHAM

Montgomery, January S.-(Special.)- Montgomery defeated the Birmingham Young Mems Christian association bas- ketball team tonight by score of 39 to 22. The Birmingham boys started to play rings around the locals but they could not stand up against Montgomery S football tactics. Referee Green simply gave the game to Montgomery.

Had there been any referee at all Bir- mingham might have had show. Estes, Balsam, Sherrod, Lambert, Strange. Bull lock and Brown for Birmingham played in fine style.

Orphan Boys At Reggie Re-.

FOUND ALIVE IN THE RUINS
Some People Are Found Who Have Lain Buried for Seven Days, and 1t Is Believed Others Will
 Yet Be Rescued.

Reggie, January S.-The sun shone again today in all it's splendor, emphasiz- ing the beauties of nature in the sur rounding country-along the mountains covered with green, over the vineyards and lemon groves, and down the smiling shore, where it reflected in the opales- cent sea- Inside Reggie, however, it's warm rays fell upon only huge piles of debris.
 Proportionately with other towns, Reg gio gave the highest percentage of or phans as a result of the earthquake. The boys were eagerly taken care of by rela- tions, but the girls were mostly aban- doned
 Fortunately, however, they have been entrusted to the ladies' committee, which arrived here from all parts of Italy, and doubtless will secure good homes
 All the wounded have been removed from Reggie and 5000 refugees have de- parted from the town. One thousand bodies have been dug from the ruins of the fallen buildings and buried in inn provised cemeteries.
 Among others who escaped uninjured when the shock came were three chill dren who, after having been buried in the debris of their homes for seven days. got out unaided. burrowing like mice
 A man and his wife also have been found uninjured beneath ruins, where they have lain for eight days, subsist- ing on a pint of olive oil.
 The safe of the Bank of Italy contain ing $3,OOo,0O0, has been found. At Sinopoli all the houses were de- stroyed, except three built after the earth quake in 1905 of hollow brick, with wire passing through them and uniting them in vertical line, while at the top an other wire united the different lines hori- zontally, thus making the whole building compact.
 Fresh earthquake shocks are being felt here, at Barcelona and Messina each night. They are preceded by explosions and buildings that were not totally de- stroyed in the big shock are being fur ther damaged.

WHEN THE KIDNEYS GIVE OUT

Did you ever feel that you simply can't go any further-that you must have rest for that lame and aching back-relief from that constant dead, tired feeling-freedom from those stabbing, darting pains?
 This is the condition that so often comes at middle age, bringing with it an extreme nervousness and irritabil- ity that makes others think you cranky" and hard to get along with"
 Likely your kidneys are worn and tired and need help. In any machine there is one part that works the hardest and gives out first. The kidneys work night and day, remov- inging from the blood the ur,c acid and other waste created by overuse of strength and energy. Naturally a life of unusual activity doubles the duties of the kidneys and in time the strain tells.
 With healthy kidneys, one has a good chance to live long, but weak kidneys afflict old age with great discomforts. The back becomes bent and lame, rheumatism is chronic, eye sight fails, and too frequent or invol- untary passages of the urine cause embarrassment by day and loss of sleep at night.

America the fleet passed in review of the president of Chile in the harbor of Valparaiso. sweeping in a grand curve into the harbor and out again before the admiring eyes of a deeply i'm pressed people. No stops were made between Punta Arenas and Callao, where again the entertainments of fered the visitors taxed every days time to the utmost. After Callao came Magdalena bay, where for a month the ships were out of touch with the world except by wireless telegraphy. Drills and record target practice filled
 the time at Magdalena It was month of real work-a month of work enjoyed by all. Record target prac tice is eagerly anticipated every year. It is a time that every sailor. no mat ter how new he may be in the service, gets a chance at the guns, provided he has shown any sort of aptitude in the ping pong trials, which are con- tinuous aboard the men of war in port and out. It is at record practice that the men attain the rank of gun pointer" and get a white star and crossed circle on their blouse sleeve if they make a certain mark. To be a gun pointer means extra pay each month, according to the class attained. and there is prize money for all. if hte ships guns as a whole make a deserving record. The record prac- tice of last spring developed an ac- curacy and rapidity of fire never be- fore attained.
 After, Magdalena came the excursion of the fleet to the California resorts, and there was apparently a never ending program of merrymaking. At San Diego Coronado Beach). at the ports of Los Angeles. at Santa Bar bara, at Monterey, santa Cruz and San Francisco, the people of California re- ceived the fleet with wild acclaim. It was the first time that such an array of fighting vessels had been seen on the Pacific coast and California cele- brated with a hospitality for which the people of the state are noted. A trip to Puget Sound took the fleet to Se- attle, Tacoma and Bellingham, and these cities offered an entertainment which ranked with the very best of the entire trip.
 When the ships set sail out of San Francisco for the coming trip there were many predictions that they would be left in the Pacific and that events might make such a course desirable Invitations had been accepted for wis its to Australia, to China and Japan,

 PHOENIX PROOF.
 James A. Taylor, 302 s. 12th St, Phoenix, Ariz., says: "Doan's Kidney Pills cured me of kidney trouble which had bothered me for four or five years. Whenever I caught cold it settled in my kidneys and caused my back to become so painful that could not sit, stand or lie down without suffering severely. When having an acute attack I learned of Doan's Kidney Pills and procured them at Adams Pharmacy. They en- tirely banished the pain and lame- ness in my back and I have had no return of the trouble since. I gave a testimonial telling of the merits of Doan's Kidney Pills in 1902, and am now pleased to confirm every word T. then said regarding this remedy"

The Atlantic and Pacific fleets joined company in the bay and there were more than forty ships in the four long columns that came to anchor under Evans blue ensign. Three days later Admiral Ev-
