Smith County Loses Suit

In the Chancery Court at Cooke
vile last week Judge Roberts decided
the suit between Putnam and Smith
counties in favor of Putnam county,
Smith county thereby losing quite a
good deal of valuable territory. The
suit involved a number of acts of the
Legislature detaching land from Put
nam and attaching to Smith, the Court
holding that they were void for the
reason that Putnam county did not
have the constitutional area, and a
number of farms and several good
citizens are taken from our county.
Attorney J. N. Fisher represented
Smith county and made gallant fight
but the same question was previous
Ny settled in the suit involving the
Barnes tract, and we lost. There will
be no appeal as we understand it.
Courier.
We understand the tract recovered
embraces about 1000 acres of valua-
BILE land. This suit was brought by
County Judge, Sam Edwards and
County Attorney e. H, Boyd who prose
cuted the claim of Putnam county to
successful conclusion.

Secures a Splendid Position

Mr.. Milburn X. Adcock left last
Tuesday for st Paul, Mimi, to accept
a position with the West Publishing
Company as law editor. This position
was obtained by Mr.. Adcock through
his own efforts and efficiency as a
lawyer. This company, which is the
largest law publishing company in the
United States, needed more force in
it's editorial departments, and adver-
IT, ed for competent men, setting forth
the tests to which they would be put
in "iritten examinations, and we sup
pose every state in the Union had law
ers in the contest, and young Mr.. Ad-
cock was one of the winners of the
prize. This is a nice and profitable
position for him, and keeps him clear
ly in line as lawyer.
He has gone to see how the COM
pany is pleased with him, and says he
wants to learn more of the work re-
quired of him, and if agreeable all a.
round will spend year of two with
this company, when he will continue
the practice of his profession in some
city where there are greater ipportu-
mites. Mr.. Adcock is to be congratu-
lated over his victory.

he was sinking Mr.. Gist started to
swim to him, but he had gone down
the third time before he reached him.
At once he dressed and hurried to give
the alarm. 1t was more than an hour
before the body was recovered, when
the physicians worked over him till
all hope was lost. His body was TAX

Dixie 7, Carthage I

In one of the most interesting fea
lures of the 4th of July program Dixie
defeated the strong Carthage baseball
team in the most exciting game of the
season.
The team representing Carthage
was made up of some of he stars OF
the leading University and Prep school
teams With this bunch were Peck
Turner of Vanderbilt, Farmer of Cum
berland, Young of Castle Heights,
Price and Mcdonald of Hawkins, r.
Turner and B. Read of Branham &
Hughes, while the rest of the team
was the best obtainable. Against this
array Dixie placed her old team and
the usual program of win with Dixie
was rendered.
Peck Turner and Price pitched good
ball for the visitors but were unable
to stop the hard hitting mountain boys
The locals were held down the first
two innings, but after that when the
smoke had cleared away the home
boys had made eleven hits for seven
scores.
Jones, the phenominal pitcher of
Dixie, had everything and was dishing
OUT curves duu SulOhc UclOlC WulCA tAC
visiting batters were helpless. When
the game was over 21 victims had been
forced to retire via the strike out
route while only one clean hit and one
scratch was registered. Ever the
mighty Turner of Vanderbilt was fan
ned and the best he could do was a
dinky hit to third which he beat out
by a close margin During this game
Jones made a wonderful record of
striking out eleven men in succession,
a feat never equalled before.
The Carthage bays were simply out
classed in every department of the
game and too much credit cannot be
given the Dixie boys for their all a.
round good playing. Every man on
the team was in the game from start
to finish and several brilliant plays
were made.
One of the largest crowds In the his
tory of the town witnessed this game.
There were almost one thousand peo-

Getting Along Nicely.

ter from Mr.. NJ A. Moye, Jr., asking
that The Herald be sent to him at
Washington, D. C. 1t will be re-
membered that Mr.. Moye recently
sold his moving picture show here to
accept the position of ticket auditor
for the Southern Railway. He writes
us that his present run is on Nos. 81
and 3S, the New York, Atlanta &
New Orleans limited, and he runs
from Atlanta to Washington. This
is one Of the finest trains on the
Southern, being composed of fine
Pullmans throughout, with diner,
club and observation cars, making
stops only at large towns. Mr.. Moye
says he is very much pleased with
his position, and his many friends in
his old home will be glad to know
that he is getting along so nicely.

ACTS ON THE LIVER
'Dodson's Liver Tone Livens Up the
Liver-Is More Than Mere
Laxative.

Calomel was for years the only
known medicine that would stimulate
the liver. But calomel is often dam
gerous, and people are not to be
blamed for being afraid Of it.
Within the last few years many
medicines have been put out to be.
used intsead of calomel, but their
effect is on the boweis-not on the
liver. Peoples Drug Store says that
the only real liver medicine to actu-.
ally take the place of calomel is
Dodson's Liver Tone, mild, harm
less, vegetable liquid that Peoples
Drug Store recommend to take the
place of calomel and which gives
prompt relief in cases Of constipa-
ton, biliousness and sluggish liver.
So confident are Peoples Drug
Store that they give their personal
guarantee with every 50-cent bottle
of Dodson's Liver Tone. You can
be sure that you are getting Dodson's
by asking at this store if they are;
giving you the medicine they person
ally guarantee to refund money on II

Another 'Robber Captured.

Our reporter got the wrong name
last week of the robber who was
captured for breaking into the store
of the Bamberg Furniture & Hard
ware Company. The negro who was
captured then and lodged in jail was
not John Green but Arthur Wright
Mr.. Cooner also Gid not offer a re-
ward of S25 each for the two ne
groes still at large, the reward being
for both, and with evidence to con-
vict.
John Green, another one of the
negroes, and the one who is said to
be the leader Of the gang, was ar
rested in Augusta Tuesday and
brought here the same night and
lodged in Jail. He was captured un-
der the charge of breaking into the
drug store at Denmark some time
ago, but he admits being with the
crowd who broke into the hardware
store. 1t seems that there is a reg
ularly organized gang of store rob-
bers, who have been stealing in Den
mark, Bamberg, and other towns in
this section.

for a short wedding trip, returning
to Bamberg a few days later, where
they are making their home at pres

The bride is the eldest daughter

The Bamberg-Ehrhardt Railroad.

Tuesday afternoon of this week we
went out to Lemon Swamp, Where
gang is now at work on the new
railroad, and we must admit that we
were greatly surprised at the amount
of work which has been done. AS
heretofore stated, the road bed is
complete and ties have been laid,
but it needs to be said that the road
bed is a good one and the ties are
of good material. At Lemon Swamp
a large force has been at work, but
by the time this paper is printed they
will have finished up the work there
and moved down to Little Saltke-
atchie Swamp, which is the only 9TH
er stream of any size which the rail-
road crosses.
At Lemon Swamp the embankment
has been finished all the way across,
and a. trestle several hundred feet
long has been built. The piling is
being driven by Mr.. Hicks, and he
is doing it we'll. Large timbers have
been used, and the work is as SUBJ
stantial as that of any railroad, and
there need be no fear that the tres
ties will not hold up the heaviest
trains. Frankly, we were as much
surprised as pleased at the thorough
manner in which Messrs. Williams,
Hays and Wolfe are having this
work done and the heavy timbers
used. There is nothing of the make
shift or temporary about this work,
and we suggest to our people that
they go out and see the trestle across
Lemon Swamp. They will realize
that the road will soon be ready for
business, and that a much-needed
outlet is an assured fact. The work
is being pushed as rapidly as pos
sibles
