ONE DEAD, THREE INJURED
RESULT OF RAID ON JAIL
Georgia Mob Undertakes to
Secure Possession of
Negro Prisoner.

COLUMBUS, Ga. December PA
young man, Irwin Kent, dead; Jailer A. A.
Phelts, dangerously wounded, two other
men slightly wounded. and six or eight
alleged rioters in Jail, with their COM
rades outside planning rescue. is the net
result of a sensational storming early yes
terday morning of the Muscogee county
Jail.
A mob Of two or three hundred made a
desperate attempt to get Henry Taylor,
a negro arrested several days ago on the
charge of attacking a sixteen-year-old
white girl. Taylor had been carried to
Atlanta, the state capital. for safe keep
ing. but the mob professed not to believe
It,
The mob gathered quietly, evidently by
agreement, about ! o'clock. The heaviest
fog of the winter favored Their plans
Ja!ler Phelts was alone in the Jail, a
strong brick structure. There had been
no intlmation of trouble.
Sheriff's Statement Not Accepted.
Leaders Of the mob wearing handker-
chiefs, which concealed their features,
and armed with revolvers. shotguns and
ri.-es, approached the Jail, called to
Phehs and demanded that Taylor be
given up. The ja.ler explained that the
negro had been taken away. He was
told to open the doors, but refused.
Threats were in vain.
Finally some one in the crowd fired
pistol Instantly firing began in all di-
rections. Bullets battered against the
brick walls. Some whistled between the
iron bars. Jailer Phelts responded with
his pistol, firing first into the crowd and
then aiming at man crouched under his
window and trying to pick him Off.
Phelts had emptied his PISTOL and was
reaching for his rifle when q fortyfour
CALDER bullet struck him to the floor.
The lead plowed through his chest, APP
parently missing his lungs and causing
very dangerous wotlnd, although 1t Is be-
Iieved he will recover.
The mob gradually withdrew, carrying
the wounded. Soon afterward the sheriff
men rushed to the scene and the crowd
slowly dispersed.
Kent Dies in Hospital.
Irwin Kent, twenty-five. a mill operative
of Phoenix City, Ala, died today in the
City Hospital from a wound received dur
ing the firing A bullet plowed through
him from hip to hip. 1t is not known
whether he was shot by the jaiier or by
member of the mob. 'Buckshot'' Black
non and Tom Crews. young men, were
slightly wounded.
good many men, in the mob were in
;oxicated. Dynamite had been carried
along and probably would have been
used on the Jail later had it not been for
the arrival of reinforcements.
Six or eight white men. alleged to have
been members of the mob have been ar
rested Tonight rumors are rife that
their friends will try to rescue them from
the Jail, but the authorities are prepared,
and doubt If another attack will be made
Jailer Phelts is f1fty-three years Of age
and has been In charge of the jail fifteen
ears. This Is the second time he has
faced q mob. He is a man of superb
nerve. and although shot down last night
pulled himself off the floor and was on
guard when the reinforcements arrived.

A UNIVERSAL FOOD Following Natures Footsteps.

T have a boy. two years old. weigh ing forty pounds and in perfect health who has been raised on Grape Nuts and milk
 This is an ideal food and evidently furnishes the elements necessary for a baby as well as for adults. We have used Grape-N Nuts in large quantities and greatly to our advantage"
 One advantage about Grape Nuts is that it is predigested in the process of manufacture; that is. the starch con- tained in the wheat and barley is transformed into a form of sugar by the same method as this process is carried out in the human body. that is by the use of moisture and long ex- posture to moderate warmth. which grows the diastase in the grains and makes the remarkable change from starch to sugar.
 Therefore, the most delicate stomach can handle Grape Nuts and the food Is quickly absorbed into the blood and tissue. certain parts of it going direct lv to building and nourishing the brair nerve centers.

MONK, FROM THE FARMS.
76,00o American Farmers Have Their
 Own Automobiles.

i Of the 10000 automobiles owned in
 the state of Iowa 5000 belong to farm
 CTS c If Mir Roosevelt really wants to know what is the matter with the ! farmers and with life in the country
 he might consider that one item for
 other items pretty much like i. Of course in Iowa it's corn. As a writer in the Travel Magazine points ! out. corn grows in l20 days from it's planting time. Out in the great corn belt during 1909 the farmers made the ground give up to them $15.000.00O ev cry day of those 120. In other words. every day from the time the corn farmers put the seed in the ground sl5 900. 900 were poured into their laps until a grand total of S1.720. DOC, 900 was
 rolled up.
 All the gold and silver in the United States today isn't equal to this corn crop of last year. And this is only corn Wheat and cotton are not far behind. Wheat never fetched such price for the farmer since 1881 as it did last year. And no cotton planter has received such a high price for his cot ton since 1871.
 Suppose you had been touring in an airship last summer and had been
 spinning over Kansas in light sum mer breeze. Suppose that you had noticed signs of activity as you ap- preached the little town called Frank fort. Picture your astonishment on learning that there was an automobile fete on that day and that several hund-
 red farmers and their families were steaming their cars into town until the streets of the town were quite choked
 with autos.
 Your ideas of a backwoods Kansas town and the farmers would have had a rude jar. for here was Mrs. Farmer in becoming automobile veil and stylish tailor made suit taking tea at an afternoon reception instead of work
 ing the butter churn in wrapper or staring open mouthed out of the win
 dow in scared way when you
 steamed past in your auto.
 Ever been to Hays City, Kansas? Well. when you go there just ask for

He'll give you a true Scotch welcome and he'll be glad to tell you how last spring he de- cided that he had made his farm yield enough to enttle him and his wife to take a trip abroad in his own auto | mobile. He'll tell you how he shipped his car from Kansas to Glasgow, and | how he saw more in two days in Scot

 were spent in Scotland.
 Kansas farmers spent s3.200.0OO for
 automobiles during 1909 and s2.750.0o0 | in 1908 In one Nebraska town of 800
 population forty autos were sold last
 year to farmers near the town and re-
 tired farmers in the town. Careful
 estimate of the number of automobiles
 owned by the farmers of the entire United States is 16,000.
 The farmer has more good reasons for having an automobile than any oth- CT man. It is commonly said now that
 many city men are buying autos who

cannot afford them. Garage and chauf- feur costs are largely responsible for this condition.
 But the farmer takes to an automo- bile quite like the proverbial duck to water. In the first place he knows machinery. He handles it all day long and has to be his own repair man. As a result he is his own best chauffeur and so is his son.
 The auto fits into the farm work as if made for it. IL doesn't replace the horse-not a bit of it. The horse goes into the field in the morning and the auto runs the milk to town or goes to the mill for flour in hurry or makes a quick das'i for the machine shop in town for d part to repair the binder or the threshing machine. It saves the time in many instances Gas many farmers testify) of a big gang of men in the field in an emergency. It pays for itself in real service by the end of a year or two.
 Sixteen automobile makers are ad- vertising autos to the farmers in the 450 farm papers of the country. and most Of them are arguing that the au- tomObile will keep the boy on the farm and make life more liveable for the wife Automobile men are con- stantly being astonished at the price farmers are willing to pay for the best cars, and they way they are paving is in cash, with as little fuss as if they were buying new draught hors.

FINANCE AND COMMEREC

New York. April 1s.-The demand for stocks today proved disappointing to those who organized the upward move ment last week. The events over the week end brought some selling orders through commission houses. leaving small opportunity for buyers of last week to distribute their holdings or to expect new buyers. An exception was found in the Hill and Gould stocks. which advanced in early dealings or strength of reports that a working agreement had been made by which traffic from the Hill roads would be shipped over the Gould roads west of Denver A minor cause of disappoint- ment was the failure of predictions made positively last week that the cor poration tax would be declared uncon- stitutional by the supreme court to- day.
