REMARKABLE RECORD
Flesh forming Food That Succeeds
Nearly Every Time.

A man or woman might as well starve
outright as to take food into the stom-
ach and not have it assimilated, yet in
Atlanta, as well as in every other town
and city, there are many people who
are thin, pale and seem underfed,
simply because the food they eat is not
assimilated, and fails to make good
blood and firm flesh.
Samose, the wonderful flesh forming
food, taken before or after meals. min
giles with the food, SO that it is as
simulated by the system and makes rich
blood and pleasing plumpness. No one
can use it for a week or ten days with
out a noticeable gain in weight. Sta
tistics show that out of every one hun
dred people who commence the use of
Samose, SO will find a full gain In
weight and restoration of health and
strength.
Any one who is thin, weak, scrawny
and emaciated can put SOC on deposit
with Jacobs Pharmacy and take home
box of Samose. If the treatment
does not give noticeable increase in
good, firm flesh and restore strength
and health, they will return the money
without any questions.-Advt

statement of facts no man can refute.
when the time comes, / will make
it public.
Being compelled, while a trusty,
to overhear a portion of certain
conversation between Warden Meyer,
Superintendent of Construction w. H.
Foster and the new Superintendent
of Prisons Duhey, l feel l must give
into the proper hands facts that will
convince the Attorney General of the
need for changes"
Convicts Cursed at Meals.
81 had ample opportunity to watch
them work. l was a 'trusty' in the
superintendent office more than a
year. Later 1 was in the storeroom,
where table and other supplies are
issued. After that 1 was a general
runner over the prison reservation
carrying an unrestricted pass.
There is a guard at the prison
named Reedy. He is in charge of the
dining room. His usual pastime is
cursing any prisoner who asks for 4
second helping of food.
IF the prisoner whose request has
been refused answers Reedy, he goes
to the hole For the simple break
ing of cup in the dining room, manv
prisoners have spent much time IN

Letter Privilege Restricted.
"At the time, under the old organ
ization when Meyers superintendent
was K. V. Ladow, when men actually
were starving for food, have seen
Reedy send portions of such food as
was issued back to the kitchen 10
be served at the next meal.
"A man in the Federal Prison at
Atlanta who suggests to his own
relatives that conditions at the prison
are not what the public believes them
to be has his writing privileges taken
away from him and his letters are
confiscated.
There are some mighty good men
among the guards at the prison, but
I won't give you their names, because
l know if I praised them they would
lose their places"

Courtroom Packed as Lawyers
Make Closing TaIks-Stirring
Plea for Senator.

OKLAHOMA CITY. Feb. ia
verdict is expected by tonight in the
$4,000 damage suit of Mrs. Minnie
E. Bond against United States SEN
ator Thomas P. Gore. The argu-
ments of the lawyers will be COM
pleted by the middle of the afternoon
session.
Another immense crowd packed the
courtroom to-day, hoping to hear
another speech with thrills like those
given by Moman Pruitt, attorney for
Senator Gore, in his speech yester-
day when he declared that Senator
Gore was on trial because on the
floors of Congress he stood between
the HELPLESS Indians of this State and
the political crooks and thieves who
wanted to rob them"
Robert L. Rogers, former Attorney
General of Arkansas, in his address
strove to tear to pieces Mrs Bond s
story told on the witness stand of the
happenings in the room in the Hotel
winston in Washington.
Without knowing that the two
were alone in the room," said the
attorney, without knowing whether
the door was closed, without know
ing he was in a private room, with
out removing his long Prince Albert
coat, this famous statesman, known
by sight to almost every person in
Washington, tried to assault this
woman. 1t is ridiculous"
According to the laws of Oklahoma
the jury in a damage suit can return
a verdict by a 9-to-3 vote, this YER
dict is final and complete and leaves
nothing to be decided by the presid-
ing Judge If the jury in the Gore case
should find for the plaintiff, it will
also fix the amount of damages.

To
FIGHT AGAINST
DISMISSAL
Anderson and Waters Likely viii
Demand That the Brothers Be
Given Hearing by Board.

That the County Commissioners at
their next meeting will heed the re-
cent recommendation of the Grand
Jury that the Donaldson influence be
eliminated from county affairs, now
appears to be a foregone conclusion,
although it IS not at all unlikely that
two members of the board will make
a sharp fight to retain both Captain
Tom Donaldson and his brother, S.
II. Donaldson, who have been in the
service of the county for more than
twenty years.
1t is pretty we'll understood that
Commissioners Winn, thurman and
Smith will vote to GUST the brothers,
and 1t is certain that Commissioner
Anderson will not see them go with
out at least another investigation He
already has said as much. Chairman
Waters, too, it is understood, will vote
to keep the Donaldsons in their pres
ent positions.
Will Hear Both Sides.
IF the board is to take up the
Donaldson matter, as of course it will,
| think we should hear from the DON
aldson side as well as from the Grand
Jury" said Colonel Anderson
The Grand Jury probe was an ex
parte investigation and we do not
know all that went on there | think
it is nothing but common justice
that the Donaldson brothers be given
an opportunity to present their side of

Of Woman Slayer

NASHVILLE, Feb. 1S.-I am
tired of murder in petticoats stalking
the streets of this city, and l intend
to keep on trying Mrs. Jones until
some sort of verdict is reached" de-
clared Attorney General Anderson
when the jurors in the case of Mrs.
Leola Jones reported in the Criminal
Court that they could not possibly
agree. She was on trial for the MUIR
der of Mrs. Alva Cave.
Mrs. Jones was the fifth woman to
commit murder in a crime wave of
some months ago. The other four
were convicted.
