Wonder Who viii Be First.

Much speculation is abroad as to
who will be the first witness put upon
the stand when the committee con.
venes about September 80. A report
Is current that Colonel Roosevelt
would not appear at that time, as he
will be touring the west

poenaed no one to appear before II,
but has left the date of appearance
to the discretion of witnesses. it Is

will be followed in regard to Colonel

independence, by Carl Albert, and
certain Barteleoni assumed the title
of king under the name of Paul |.
At his death in May, 1882, he express

Tavolarians proclaimed the republic

The Egyptian government has be
gun one of the most costly and COM
prehensive drainage projects for the
reclamation of lands ever attempted
by any government in the world. Its
object is to make cultivable 100000
acres of fertile land in the delta of
lower Egypt. 1t is estimated that the
work will require four years, and Sl5,-
100000 will be required for drainage
and a like amount for irrigation
Ninety per cent of the land redeemed
will be owned by the government. The
principal object of the project Is to
redeem a fertile, but now worthless
region of the delta under cotton cul-
tivation.

Probably the largest stones ever
used in any building are seen in the
western wall of the great temple OF
Baalbek, in Syria, and the problem is
still unsolved as to the methods used
in conveying them from the quarries
and of placing them in position. The
iauarries from which these blocks
were undoubtedly cut can be seen
about half a mile to the southwest of
the temple The three stones lie hor-
izontally and form part of the outer
wall of the building. They are not on
the lowest part of the masonry, but
are twenty-three feet above the first
row of stones. Each stone is over
sixty feet long, thirteen feet high and
ten feet thick.

such manner that the benefits viii be
Of permanent value to the state as 81

In order to accomplish this, ut is
proposed that Flax Growers Asso.s

breeding disease resistant fiax, which
would supply the seed for increase
fields, which in turn would supply
seed for the normal fax acreage of
the state.
New uncropped yirgin sod lands
will not. last long now that the trac-
t ton outfits have come to stay. There's

To the farmer who viii decide to

benefit, in the fact that he can raise

MISERY
JUST vAN|SHES
No Indigestion, Gas or Sour
ness after taking "Pape's
Diapepsin."

If what you just ate Is souring on
your stomach or lies like a lump Of
lead, refusing to digest, or you belch
gas and eructate sour, undigested food,
or have a feeling of dizziness, heart
burn fullness, nausea, bad taste in
mouth and stomach headache-this Is
indigestion.
A full case of Pape's Diapepsin costs
only fifty cents and will thoroughly
cure your out Of order stomach and
leave sufficient about the house in case
some one else in the family may suf-
fer from stomach trouble or indigestion.
Ask your pharmacist to show you
the formula plainly printed on these
flfty-ce cases, then you will under
stand why dyspeptic trouble of all kinds
must go, and why they usually re-
lieVe sour out Of order stomachs or
indigestion in five minutes. Diapepsin
is harmless and tastes like candy,
though each dose contains power suffi-
cient to digest and prepare for assim-
ilation into the blood all the food you
eat; besides, it makes you go to the
table with a healthy appetite; but
what will please you most is that you
Will feel that your stomach and in
testines are clean and fresh, and you
will not need to resort to laxatives or
liver pills for biliousness or constipa-
ton.
This city will have many Diapepsin
cranks, as some people will call them,
but you will be cranky about this
splendid stomach preparation, too. if
you ever try little for Indigestion or
gastritis or any, other stomach misery.
Get some now. this minute. and for
ever rid yourself of stomach trouble
and indigestion. (Advt.)

there been such universal regret in the
passing of a lawyer and jurist of the
old school. The older lawyers had
known Judge Hopkins well; the young
er knew him only by reputation as jur-
list and author but all expressed regret
at the passing of a man who had been
an exemplary citizen distinguished
judge and a writer whose books on
special branches of the law are author
ity in the courts of the state he loved.
Judge Hopkins was the first pres-
dent of the Atlanta Bar association,
and that body of lawyers met yester-
day and adopted resolutions of regret.

Every member of the Atlanta Bar
association is appointed a member of
the committee from the Bar associa-
ton to attend the funeral Of the Hon.
John L. Hopkins" said Mr.. Fitzpatrick.
He was the first president of this as
sociation and deservedly commanded
the respect of every member of this
bar"
The funeral of Judge Hopkins will be
marked by a cortege the like of which
has been given to but few of Atlanta 5
citizens Practically every member of
