Slaton Commutes
Sentence of Death
Of Insane Slayer

Governor Slaton to-day commuted
to life Imprisonment the death SEN
tence of /. 3. Hall. Of Tiff County,
convicted OF numbering Dennis Hall,
in a fight about a year ago.
The Governor based his commute
ton upon Halls mental incapacity
and his bad family history. Although
apparently sane at the time Of the
homicide and normal at long inter
walls, the Governor found Hall has
numerous relatives, including two
brothers, in the mad house. and is
himself irresponsible at times, and
for these reasons he saved the con-
victed man from the gallows. DR..
Baird, of Atlanta, at the Governor s
direction. investigated Halls mental
condition and could find nothing
wrong with him, but it seems that
there are times when Hall is far from
well balanced.
There was no opposition to the pc
tition for clemency, and 1t was in
dorsed by practically every citizen OF
standing in Tiff County.

Third Major League
Is To Be Created
Pre- New Season

BALTIMORE, Jan. 15.-According
to the Baltimore Star it was learned
through an authoritative source this
afternoon that a third major league
of organized baseball will be created
by the powers that be" before the
1914 season opens.
The Star says the machinery is in
motion and full announcement of
this latest plan to combat the inva-
sion Of the Federal League will be
made after a special meeting to be
called in New York in the very near
future.
The plan is to transfer the Jersey
City franchise to Washington, retain
ing the other seven clubs in the In
ternational League and so turn he
organization into a big league by Sc
moving the drafting system by which
Glass IA clubs have been losing
their star players each year, which
had made minor league baseball so
distasteful TO the fans.
President Edw Barrow, of the In
ternational League, has been working
under cover on the project.

MAKES RHEUMATISM
PROMPTLY DISAPPEAR
Chronic. Crippled-up Sufferers
Find Relief After Few Doses
Of New Remedy Are
Taken.

1t is needless to suffer any longer
with rheumatism, and be all crippled
up. and bent out OF shape with its
heart wrenching pains, when you can
surely avoid it,
Rheumatism comes from weak, in
active kidneys, that fail to filter from
the blood the poisonous waste mat ?
ter and uric acid. and 1t is useless to
rub on liniments or take ordinary
remedies to relieve the pain. This
only prolongs the misery and can't
possibly cure you.
The only way to cure rheumatism
is to remove the cause The new dis
covery, CroNone, does this because 1t
neutralizes and dissolves all the poi
sonous substances and uric acid that
lodge in the joints and muscles to
scratch and irritate and cause rheu-
matism, and cleans out and strength
ems the stopped-up inactive kidneys
so they can filter all the poisous from
the blood and drive 1t on and out of
the system.
Croxone is the most wonderful
medicine ever made for curing Chron-
ic rheumatism, kidney troubles and
bladder disorders You will find 1,
different from all other remedies.
There is nothing else on earth Ike a.
u matters not how old you are or
how long you have suffered Il Is
practically impossible to take It into
the human system without results
You will find relief from the first few
doses. and you will be surprised how
quickly all your misery and SUFFERING
viii end
An original package OF Croxone
costs but a triie at any first class
drug store. All druggists are au-
thorized TO sell II on a positive
money back guarantee. Three doses
