ANTE|NJUNCT|ON
 BILL IS REPORTED Judiciary Committee FavOrs Measure Wanted by
 Labor Unions


 Washington, April 29.-A broad anti injunction bill, such measure as has long been advocated by labor unions throughout the country was favoraby reported to the House today by Chair man Clayton of the judiciary com mittee.
 The bill provides that injunctions in labor disputes shall only be issued after the defendants have had oppor- tunity to answer the complaint against them. It also provides that courts shall issue restraining orders for but seven days and these only where the complainant shows that he will be done irreparable injury if the order is not issued.
 Blanket injunctions are specifically provided against and the right of work ingmen to peaceful assembly is reit- ernted. The right of boycott and the right to refuse to patronize is estap- lished in one section of the bill.
 A minority report probably will be submitted by republican members of She committee. Seven republicans of the House committee on judiciary have filed a minority report to the Clayton contempt bill reported last week, de- nouncng it as measure calculated to meet political exigencies of the day and one that would destroy the func- .oin of the courts. The bill is described as unconstitutional The minority of the committee offers a substitute for the relief asked by labor unions.

NOT FIND lNENT RELIEF
Garnett and Wife Sui Aered From Nervousness
HEARD OF A NEW TONIC
Symptoms of Trouble Quickly Eradi. cated-Great Amount of Good Ac- compllshed is the cause of
 Much Excitement and Comment

MT T. N. Garnett, residing at 26lC Twenty-ninth street, this city, made the following statement recently in connec- ton with .'Tona Vita the new tonic that is now being introduced with such great success in Birmingham.
 MT Garnett said: My wife and l were both suffering with nervous debility. We tried several different remedies without permanent relief. Had cold feet and hands. Kidney trouble was apparent in digestion in extreme form, could not sleep at night and was always very nervous and absent minded. We heard of Tona Vita and decided to give it a trial. We are both more than pleased with the re- suits obtained from the tonic, 'Tona Vita and we highly recommend 1t for nervous debility"
 The representatives who are introduce ing "Tona Vita" in Birmingham are giv- ing demonstration of what the tonic will do in five minutes, and the Birmingham public are focldng to the store where they are located One of the representa- tives said that "Tona Vita" will break all records in this country; people are just beginning to realize what a great preparation it is. Thousands upon thoVS sands in this and other large cities are afflicted with general debility The en- tire system becomes affected in such cases and nervousness, stomach trouble, head ache, backache, despondency and loss of vitality result. "Tona Vita" will work wonders in such cases in remarkably short time.
 We have predicted all along that every man or woman affected with nervous de- bility, who would give 'Tona Vita fair test, would become a walking advertise ment for our remedy and judging from the results in Birmingham, we are cor rect" said one of these representatives. Anyone" continued he, 'who has been 6 constant sufferer from debility is sure 10 tell about it when they find something that will give them genuine relief"
 ''The public does not realize the symp- toms of this modern malady and it would be well for as many as can to visit the Collier Drug company. No. 109-111 North 10th street, between the hours of g a. m. and s p. m. this week and have the rep resentatives explain this modern plague well as have the nature of the reme- dy demonstrated.
 Enthusiasm continues to prevail gener- ally where the new product called 'Tona Vita has been used. The great amount of good which seems to have been accom- plished is the cause of considerable ex- citement by those who have seen it's won derful work. Case after case of people who were comparatively nervous wrecks and those who have been sufferers from stomach trouble for years have been re- ported and the results of 'Tona Vita were said to have been astonishing in nearly every case"

government men will be permitted to re- main in this state. The other two men
 will be transferred to some northern
 state, where they will work during the summer months. The removal of two of
 the government surveyors from the state according to Captain Kolb, is due to the
 fact that the summer months is the best
 time for this work to be done in the
 north, inasmuch as 1t is practically ffs,- possible to make any surveys in the win ter, owing to the severe climate The department told Captain Kolb that in November the government would place four additional men in Alabama, to remain during the winter months. This will give Alabama six government sur veyors during the winter months to as- | sist the four statemen in making soil
 surveys of the various counties of the
 state. Owing to the mild climate in Ala
 bama during the winter. the soil survey
 work is rarely interrupted.
 This agreement with Captain Koib was later confirmed by a letter from Will liam Whitney. chief of the soil survey bureau. who declared that the secretary
 of agriculture had approved the arrange | ment that had been made and that four men would be placed in Alabama in No-
