American people to the pitch OF excitement
and interest that made them ready for reVo-
luton. Jefferson, Adams and Franknh
formulated the doctrines and principles up
on which the movement was to be Daseo.
but when it came to taking up arms WASH
ington was the moving and governing force.
He was a man OF strong and positive cour-
! age. who made enemies as we'll as friends,
but, despite open opposition and secret
treason, he carried with him the great body
of the people and brought a seVen-years

the tribute that Is paid to Washington 1s
more of admiration than Of love. and per-
haps the greatest act in his entire career
was his stern and determined rejection and
casting aside OF the crown which his vic
torious army had offered him.
Colonel Henderson, the great English
critic of strategy, author OF a famous life
of Stonewall Jackson, in a commentary on
the wonderful achievements and character
Of Lee, quotes a line In Latin from Lucan's
poem of tPharsalia-'Victrix causa deis
placuit, sed victa Catoni"-C"The cause OF
the conqueror was favored by the gods, but
our hearts were with Cato, who upheld the
cause of the conquered.D Such. at least.
Is the meaning freely translated, and as
time goes on more and always more hearts
are with Lee.
A notable evidence of this is' seen in q
succession of articles on The. Battle Of the
Wilderness" in the Atlantic Monthly Mag
azine. from the pen Of General Morris
| Schaf, of the United States army. who was
an ordnance officer at the time. and was
actively engaged in the field during Grants
campaign against Lee in the Spottsylvania
| Wilderness. Says General Schan in the
Atlantic: .."." So. g.
What was 1t that so animated Lees
army that, although only about one-half as
strong In numbers as we were, they fought
us to a standstill in the Wilderness, and
held their lines at Spottsylyania, although
we broke them several tines. What sus-

He W his own question by declar-

that wrought an almost magic in
fiuence on his army. Men," said
Bonaparte, ARE nothing; a man Is
everything" Says the writer in
the Atlantic:

cAVEAT EMPToR
(Let the Buyer Beware)


 People on the way to drug stores for any of the old-time kidney medicines should take this old principle of Ro- man law to heart, for medical writers declare chronic kidney disease incur able. If your case is chronic (some writers fix this period at theN sixth month) this means that recovery un- der the kidney medicine you were go- ing to buy is impossible.
 Since Fulton's Renal Compound was worked out recoveries are being announced in these chronic and so- called incurable cases. There may be question as to just what it's percent age of efficiency is, but if medical writers are to be believed, there Is no question whatever about the futiljty of all the rest.
 We do not invite letters except in cases of chronic and supposed incur able kidney disease. Hence our book, let is of profound moment to kidney patients.
 Due to the strain and worry of the American life, the deaths from kidney disease have increased until they are now approaching 90.000 annually. Nc one having kidney disease can afford to treat 1t lightly.

BOLD BURGLARY
 WAS A FRAME UP'
J, H. SHERMAN coNFEssEs THAT HE DISPOSED OF JEWELRY
 REPORTED STOLEN.
chloroform Burglary Proves to Have Been a "BIoomer," Pure
 and Simple.

The bold robbery reported to have taken place at the J H. Sherman home on Garden street early Sunday morn. Ing, in which it was supposed that the night providers used ohloroform to ac. complish their work. has proven to be a fake robbery, according to infor- nation unearthed by City Detective Wiil Laughlin and Detective Myers of Memphis.
 According to a confession said to nave been made to Laughlin and My CTS last night, Sherman acknowledges that he disposed of the jewelry him. sell, several parties in Hot Springs having received portions of it.
 The story of the affair as related by Detective Laughlin who has been working on the case, is that Sherman. Who had been engaged in selling jew elry for the Crescent Jewelry Company of Memphis, was behind with the com pany and took this means of getting on even footing with his employers. sherman, it is said, related to the of flcers the manner in which the flake" robbery was pulled off. Sherman was rom time to time entrusted with a considerable quantity of jewelry to dispose of on commission At the time of the reported robbery he was Tn possession of valuable diamonds and 1ewelry valued at nearly $1,OO0. This jewelry was disposed of to diff ferent parties in Hot Springs, after which the story of the robbery was reported to the police, the supposed use Of chloroform being brought in to lend color of truth to the affair.
 Last night Sherman gave the off cers an order on Jake Wexler. S32 central avenue, for several diamonds which he said Wexler had received. Wexler acknowledged to the officers that. he had the property but upon ad- vice of his attorney declined to turn It over to them. He was arrested by Detective Laughlin on a charge of re- ceiving and concealing stolen prop erty, being later released on bond of $2,000.
 sherman, himself, has not yet been arrested, but is being guarded at his home pending instructions from his Memphis employers. His wife is seri- ously i'll. and the officers consented to placing him under surveillance at his home for the time being. No charge has as yet been placed against him, and the manner of prosecuting him, if the case is prosecuted. will be determined when definite instructions have been received from Memphis.
 It is said that detectives are now on their way to Hot Springs to take charge of the matter.

 CRATIC PRIMARY.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 22-Returns from almost every county in the state in dicate that John M. Slaton was nomi- hated for governor in yesterday s urinary by the largest majority in the history of the state. It is possible that his popular vote will be near 100000 out of about 150,000 cast Con- trary to early reports, late feturns today showed that Congressman Charles l.. Bartlett had been renomi- mated from the Sixth district by a plurality of 95, four counties, Craw- ford, Jasper, Jones and Bibb, with majority of units, being credited to him. J. w Wise carried the remain ing counties in the district.
 Returns canvassed up to tonight left the race for the office of com missioner of agriculture still in doubt, and it is possible that official returns may be necessary to determine the winner James D. Price was leading. according to today's returns, with J J. Brown and A. o. Blalock following in order.
 Owing to the length of the ballot, it is probable that complete returns will not be available until tomorrow.
 Returns from the Eleventh con- gressional district still are incom- plete. Randall Walker is ahead of Judge K. A. Parker for the nomina- tion to congress by a few votes. but complete returns may alter the pres ent standing.
 Official returns received tonight show that Colonel Randall Walker has received the congressional nomination in the Eleventh district. defeating Judge T. Parker of Waycross, Ga.
 Although early returns indicated the defeat Of Nash R. Broyles for judge of the state court of appeals, official returns show that he has defeated Judge J. R. Pottle, of Early, by large majority.

Officers Of Merchant Vessels Make
 Demand for More Pay,

London. Aug. 22.--The eliminating strike of the series which have crip- pied the British carrying business during the last two years is threaten ed by officers of the mercantile ma rine.
 The movement began when the newly formed union of shipmasters and mates tried to prevent the Ca nadian Pacific liner Mount Royal from sailing. The chief officer had beeu dismissed and the union demanded his reinstatement. A substitute was or dered by the company, however, and the vessel left port.
 The officers are well organized and propose to put forward what they consider legitimate demands. Failure to meet these. they say. will result in a strike which may starve the na- tion."
 Inadequate salaries is the foremost count in the complaint.

MAY MEAN TARIFF WAR.
countervaiIing Duty Ordered on Grain
 from Germany.

Washington, Aug. 22.-A counter vailing duty on importations of wheat and rye flour and split peas from Germany was ordered by Secretary MacVeagh today, because those com modities enjoy bounty from the German government. This decisive step was necessary, officials declare, to protect the American split pea in dustry, which. it is added, is being destroyed by German competition. grown to formidable proportions by reason of the bounty.
 While the move is fraught with grave possibilities of retaliation and consequent tariff war between the United States and Germany, officials were inclined to take the hopeful view that Germany would repeal the boun- ty, as it is said not to be popular in that country.
 The order. which becomes effective in thirty days, affects split peas pri- marily as the impOrtations of German flour are negligible. great quantity of German peas enter the United States annually.
 This action is taken under the Payne tariff law providing counter vailing duty equal to the bounty granted by a foreign country on any ezportation. The German bounty on peas amounts to about 36 cents on each 165 pounds.
