CLASS
BARRED At PROBE

LONDON, June f. Survivors among
the third class passengers on the I'll
tauic are not going to be allowed to
give their version Of the catastrophe,
according to an announcement made
today when the board of trade inquiry
was resumed Counsellor Harbiuson,
who is giving his services gratis to
surviving immigrants and families Of
Immigrant victims. asked Attorney
General Sir Rufus lssacs when evil
dence of third class survivors would be
taken The attorney general said he
did not think they could throw any
light upon the disaster and he did not
think they would be called at all.
The first witness heard was Cap
tain Bartlett, a marine superintendent
of the White Star line at Liverpool
Bartlett gave the opinion that too
many lfeboats should not be carried on
a passenger ship nor accommodations
increased for boats to such an extent
as to hinder rescue work in the event
of disaster. Binoculars were not nee
essary in the crowsnest ne said, and j
searchlight would not have prevented
the Titanic wreck.
In order to justify the action Of
Captain Smith. of the Titanic, who
failed to reduce the ships speed, coun-
sci for the White Star line called to
the stand Captain Hayes, another White
Star commander, who testified that he
had frequently received ice warnings
but never thought it necessary to re-
duce speed in clear weather.
Sir Walter Howell, chief of the ma
rine department of the Board of Trade,
testified that the number. of passengers
a ship carried had never entered into
the calculations as to the number of
lifeboats she should carry. Nor was
the size of the crew considered The
law governing the number of boats was
based solely upon the gross tonnage Of
ships, Sir Walter said

caused DR.. W. c. Bryant, one Of the
foremost fighters for the preservation
of Tallulah Falls to throw up his hands

citation proposed by Mrs. Longstreet

this. 1t was commended, however, that
she did not grant certain parcels of
land to any person of this or any other
state, and that, therefore, the river bed
and the high cliffs above it. not having
been granted to any one, REMAINED
the property OF the state. 1t may or
may not be that this seemingly insig-
nlficant point afforded Mr. Fielder op
portunity to squeeze out of a very
tight place.

grave danger of disaster If pretty Mrs
Minnie Barnes, II HARRISON avenue
knows whereof she speaks.
Mrs Barnes having Just completed a
most eventful but unsuccessful hus-
band experiment feels that her word in
the matter should have considerable
weight Her husband. so she said in
her court complaint, was a deceiver
spelled In capital letters. In view of
that and several other facts, she asked
for restoration of those rights and priv

From the wealth Of her experience
Mrs. Barnes spoke feelingly today Of
that ideal husband who, so far as she
knew. still is inside the romance books
she used to read
Must Kiss Wifey Often.
He was the sort of person who would
rise early, trip out doors without fall
ing over the carpet and blithelY throw
bird seed to the chickens Then haV-
ing watered the geraniums. he would
repair to the breakfast table and utter
no complaint, no matter what was
served.
To office he would go with many a
backward glance, having planted three
kisses on the lips Of his wife for loves
sake, one on her cheek for beauty's
sake and two on her brow as a tribute
to her Minerva-like industry
At work he would be staunch and
unmoved. His ledger should be his
sole companion, except perhaps for
moonbeam thoughts of wiley back
home in her bib and tucker.

to become enamored of him he would

her handkerchief on the floor. Should
her holiness inspire her to place her
arm around his neck he would gently,
but firmly, remove It and caution the
young woman that he was married.
Should she kiss him, he would remove
his handkerchief and wipe the stain
away-then he would call Main 7777,
which was vfeys number, and tell her
what had happened
'And he would be loving-oh. so low

THOSE SUDDEN PAINS

Hidden, Dangerous Kidney
Troubles

When the kidneys are sick, sharp
darling pains strike you in the back,
loins or side pains that almost take
your breath away, and often make
you cry out in agony.
1t is almost impossible to mis-
take these kidney pains, for they
seem to center about the small of
the back where the kidneys are To-
Gated.
And still there are many persons
who think backache is merely a
muscular understanding that
is expected to pass away with a
little rest, aided by a plaster, or by
rubbing with liniment.
There is no plaster or iniment
that will reach the inside cause

kidney medicinal kidney stimu-
liant, TO start the kidneys working
as they should-a soothing, healing

and inflammation in the kidneys.
Sick kidneys cannot get well alone
They need quick help. You wont

There is no other remedy for sick
