to urge husbands and lovers to inflict
on her the torture which created a
storm of Indignation throughout the
state.
At the opening of court today
County Attorney McCanless stated he
had more than 300 af1daVits to offer
to the court to prove that there Is no
reason why fair trial should not be
given all the accused men in this

davits from many citizens Of Lincoln
county to show that the cases could
be tried fairly in the county.

way in the city Of Meridian for the
Memphis & Pensacola railroad. the
bonds to be payable when the road is
built and in operation.
The vote yesterday stood as fol-
lows:

Wouldn't you give almost anything

Do you often let the rest of the family

fair minded person would naturally.
But you may still hesitate and say,
"Oh. I've tried so many of these adver-

Now, right here is where our argli-

Because the deadly opiates with which

W|CKERSHAM
LIKES PLAN OF
TOBACCO TRUST
HE APPROVES OF THE DISlNTE-
GRAFTON SCHEME AND SAYS
THAT SEPARATION INTO FOUR
TEEN CORPORATIONS WILL
TERMINATE THE MONOPOLY
AND SUBSTITUTE AN EQUAL
COMPETITION.
BY Associated Press.

Washington, Nov. dissatisfied that
the decree entered at New York to-
day providing for the disintegration
of the American Tobacco Co. into
fourteen corporations will terminate
the monopoly and substitute an equal
competition instead, Attorney General
Wickersham will not appeal the case
to the federal supreme court. He
will accept the circuit courts de-
cision, although the government pos
sesses the right to carry the plan Of
dissolution to the highest tribunal at
any time within year. The govern
ment's approval Of the plan was made
known by Wickersham in an official
statement today.
The size of some of the corporation
into which the company will be sepa-
rated constitutes no valid objection to
the courts decree, in the judgment of
Wickersham. who said the public is
more apt to benefit by competition be-
tween a number of large solvent and
well organized companies in strong
hands than from a general democrat
izatfon Of business which he says
would ensue were the business to be
distributed between a large number
of small and weak organizations with
insufficient capital to maintain them
selves in active competition.

Was the Carnival a Pleasure?
If Not. Wasn't II Because You Were Not Well.

for granted you do not, but on the
other hand, you want a medicine that
will put your organs into condition so
that they can and will do their,own
work, and do it properly without vio-
lent forcing. That is exactly what the
Quaker Extract will do and is doing
every day. Why has this new famous
remedy cured-yes completely cured
so many hundreds, not dozens, of your
own town people during the past
weeks. Because it is composed of
herbs, roots. banks, berries, leaves,
gums and blossoms-27 of them, all of
which have such curative properties
as to admit Of their being selected
from among many such herbs, and not
a fraction Of q grain of any mineral
or chemical poison included at all.
There is the secret of it's wonderful
success in curing disease. Because it
works mildly, gently, building up in
stead of tearing down, healing instead
of irritating.
If your ailment, dear friend, happens
to be catarrh in any form, stomach,

suffer from the ravages attending
rheumatism, no matter how severe you
are, the one Quaker Health Teacher
wants to see and talk to you. Call to-

ADJUSTMENTS.
Last Nights Play.


The fact that the big Cohan play,
Get Rich Quick Wallingford," is truly
q great, satisfying all-around play for
American people, depicting real life
of a number of guises, and filled with
brilliant and almost unbelievable
human interest, was fully demonstrate
ed to one of the largest theatre crowds
of the season last night in Pensacola.
George Cohan, the father Of the pro-
duction, knows human nature, in the
first place, to an absolute nicely, and
he knows how to make the most of
the most natural and commonplace
situations in order to play upon the
actual and innermost sentimental or
ganization of an audience.
All this is evident in the play which
easily carried its audience along
through the entire four acts last even
ing, and which touched a responding
element in nearly every person there.
There were no really weak places;
Miss Hunt, as Fannie Jasper, the
stenographer, playing a great deal
stronger, however, than any of the
other women in the play. She might
be said, however, to have divided hon.
ors, occasionally, with Miss Dunlap,
who appeared as Bessie Meers, the
head waitress.
The men in the cast, and, of course,
John Webster as Wallingford, were all
high class actors, depicting, among
them, an extremely wide range Of
human characterization.
Webster is a star, too, after the
heart of most American theatre
goers. He is a clean-cut, forceful,
magnetic Princeton man; a one-time
athlete in that college. and he looks
the part. His work in absolutely con-
trolling the doubling minds of a crowd
of the leading citizens of Battles
burg" and awakening them from a
lethargy of long years standing, alone
stamps him as a man worth while.
William Forsyth plays the part Of
Horace Daw. Wallingfords pal, and he
does it well. His intensely natural
acting proves one of the most impor-
tant details of Webster's entire sup
port.
Jas Manning, as the landlord Of the
Palace hotel, and Jay c. Yorke. as his
head clerk, are artists whom Pensa-
cola people will not soon forget, while
John D. O'Hara, as the richest man in
town." found instant favor with his
downright, true to life portrayal of the
character, and proved one of the IA
vorites of the evening.
The splendid moral of the play Is
worked out without a flaw: the scenic
effects are strikingly real and perfectly
thought out, and best of all, each per-
son seems to have been actually
selected by a careful and unerrfng
student of human nature to play their
respective parts N the portrayal OF
the entire production.
