There is more Catarrh in this sec tion of the country than all other dis eases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be in curable. For a great many years doc tors pronounced it a local disease an prescribed local remedies, and by con stantly failing to cure with local treat ment, pronounced it incurable. Scienc has proven catarrh to be a constitu- tional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Halls Ca tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the mar ket. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucou surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials.

RAPS CHURCHILL
WITH Housewife
Take That, You Brute" Says Theresa
Gurnett, Smartly Gowned
Suffragette in Bristol.

Bristol, England, Nov. 13.-Theresa
Gurnett, a smartly gowned suffragette,
armed with a horsewhip, attacked Win
ston Churchill here this afternoon, and
it was only after a struggle that she
was restrained. Churchill and his wife
had just arrived by train and were
leaving the railroad station when the
woman broke through the police line on
the station platform and, bringing
down the lash of the whip on the min
lister head, shouted:
"Take that, you brute"
Churchill IS hat broke the force OF
the blow, but the lash curled about his
face and left a red mark. Churchill
promptly seized the assailant and sue
ceeded in wrenching the whip from hel
hands after a sharp struggle. A mo
ment later, as the police seized the wo
man, she pointed scornfully at the min
lister Is denied hat, and while her fac
flushed with excitement, cried:
That IS what you we gotten, an'
you will get more of the same from
British women."
The suffragette was arrested and i'm
prisoned.

CONVICT LEASES ABOLISHED
GEORGIA PRISONERS NOW
WORK FOR THE STATE.
Freed From Mines and Factories,
They Will Hereafter Be Employed
on Public Roads. i

ATLANTA, Ga. April Georgia yes
terday shook off the last rag of her con-
Wet lease system. From one end Of the
state to the other hundreds of human
beings were led from the cavernous depths
of mines, from the sweaty heat Of chok-
ing kilns. from the whirring. dank atmos-
phere of factories-out into Gods sun
light. from the control of harsh and
often brutal taskmasters into the service
of the state.
Georgia has no state penitentiary For
years her convicts have been sold into
the mines. into the brick kilns. into the
factories, where private greed sometimes
demanded and collected its last ounce OF
human flesh and it's final drop of human
blood. : But the state decided TO abolish
this traffic in white as well black
slaves, SO instead of selling its 600 pris
oners it will work them on the public
roads.
The change went into effect at daylight
this morning. when the convicts were re-
turned TO the counties in which their
crimes had been committed. Most of the
unfortunates are blacks of low order OF
intelligence sentenced for every conceiy-
able crime.
Though shackled and ironed. the con-
victs greeted the change with shouts OF
joy and weird hymns of thanksgiving
Negro preachers were at most of the
stockades and led the blacks in their i'm
promptu praise service. Special trains
were waiting and the prisoners were
transferred as rapidly as possible TO their +.
new quarters.
Strangely enough. some Of the convicts
wept at leaving scenes which had been
part of the daily life of some OF them for
many years.
The new system, it is believed, will not
only improve the health of the convicts.
but will assure Georgia the finest turn
pixies i'm the south.
