TOO Ill To CD
To TRIAL NOW
Case Against Alleged Forger Is
Postponed as He Is Forced to
Bed by Physician.

With three separate charges of
forgery, involving $1,000, pending
against him in the justice courts of
Atlanta, J. Wylie Smith, soldier of
fortune, Tuesday was too III to stand
trial. a victim OF the worst form of
tuberculosis His critical condition
Monday caused a postponement Of the
preliminary hearing until September
"a.
DR.. c. NJ. Curtis, Smiths physician.
declared Tuesday that his patient was
in dangerous condition.
Despite his precarious condition,
however, Smith. who has braved all
sorts Of dangers in Mexico while a
fugitive from Georgia, retains his old
courage. He is brave in the face of
death, and Monday steeled himself for
the ordeal which may send him to the
penitentiary. The relapse came first,
however much TO his disappointment
and, upon the orders of his physician,
he remained at his temporary home at
No. 100 South Forsyth street. Jus.
tice Girardeau hOnored the request of
DR. Curtis and postponed the hearing.
Smith, according to DIR. Curtis. con-
tracted tuberculosis about six months
ago, following severe case Of pneu-
monia which was brought on by ex-
posture in Mexican jails and elsewhere.
Thus far his marvellous will power
and determination TO live, regardless
of obstacles. have actually prolonged
his life. He still is hopeful, and has
taken his bed only upon the strict
orders OF his physician. He expressed
the hope Tuesday of being able to
stand trial on September "a.

MINERAL CONTENT OF APPLES
Department Of Agricultural Chemistry
of the Idaho Station Gives Re
suits of Experiments.

Fruit of all kinds that grow on
plants which receive the largest por-
ton OF their food supply through the
soil, always contain a rather large
amount of mineral substances.
In the apple, for example, it has
been found by work carried on in the
department of agricultural chemis-
try OF the Idaho station that the ash
amounts from 2 to .35 per cent. OF
the fresh mature fruit This total ash
is obtained by drying a suitable guam
tity g 1-3 pounds) of the CHARTERED
apples at a degree Of about 40 de-
grees C, for several days, and then
burning it in an electrical furnace at a
dull red heat until practically all the
carbon is consumed. The total
amount APPARENTLY does not vary to
any great extent with varieties or
with irrigation or non-irrigation.
When this ash, which, from the
majority of varieties is perfectly
white, is further subjected to analy-
oCo, buc lullO"iub arc euC huoSI thi-
portant elements found Silicon, iron,
aluminium, phosphorus, manganese,
calcium, magnesium, potassium,
chlorine and sulphur
Although no one has been able to
determine the exact function Of these
various elements in plants and fruits,
it is generally believed that sulphur
and phosphorus enter into the living
substance; that potassium, magnes'
ium, calcium and iron, although not
entering into the living substance,
are essential, but owing to the fact
that they are so widely distributed in
the SOIL are absorbed by the root
hairs of the tree, and find their way
to the fruit through the tree sap.
