FOUR WHITE MEN
HOLD Up AUT0|ST
ON STATE ROAD

Monroe, Ga, Jan. 16.-Road bandits
two and halls miles south of Windsr
held up Albert Peters, a well known
young man of this city, last night, and
at the point of pistols compelled him
to submit to a thorough search. They
stripped him of valuables, but did not
find a sum of money which he laid on
the seat before he got out of the car.
Four white men composed the gang
of bandits. Mr. Peters recognized none
of them.
He had been to Winder in his auto
mobile Returning toward Monroe, he
was stopped on the road two and a half
miles south of Winder by four men
who appeared in the path of his cars
lights with pistols leveled at the ap-
preaching automobile.
When the bandits had finished their
search they permitted Mr.. Peters 20
continue on his way after cutting one
of his tires to strips.
Excitement prevails here over the
occurrence, news OF which has just
become public. Summary justice
would be the disposition of the public
in it's present temper.

GEORGIA Girl IS Held

MARIE EDWARDS, FORMERLY or

CENY IN CINCINNATI.

Cincinnati, Jan. 16.-In a toneless
voice, Marie Edwards, aged twenty
three, a professional nurse, formerly
of Athens, Ga, and claiming to belong
to prominent Georgia family, con
fessed to Municipal Judge Alexander
today, when arrested on petty lar
ceny charge, that she had stolen a wo-
mans coat valued at $155. She as
signed no reason for the theft, and
seemed anxious to tell that she had
been accused of theft at the city branch
hospital and elsewhere. She was dis
charged from that institution, she
said, when she fell in love with a male
patient and did not try to hide the
fact.

BROADWAY JONES"
Here January 21st---One Night
Only

Without the aid of lifting tunes or
ragtime rhythms about the American
flag or any other favorite topic, Mr..
Geo. M. Cohan's newest play, Broad
way Jones'" has succeeded in scoring
one of the big hits of the theatrical
year. In the play, Broadway" Jones
has squandered a fortune in an en-
deavor to burn up Broadway" Just
as he thinks he has it properly incin-
Grated, there comes the inevitable
smash, and his money is all gone. In
despair he consents to marry an heir
ess old enough to be his mother, but
before that event can take place, an
obhging uncle dies and leaves him a
chewing gum factory in Jonesville.
Conn. To further increase his good
fortune the chewing gum trust offers
to buy out his factory for a fabulous
sum. The fateful girl in the play
dawns on the scene at this time and
through her influence, he is induced to
change his mind, and instead Of SELL
in govt goes to Jonesville, his native
city, and becomes the active head of
his new possession. This, in nut
she'll, is the story around which Mr..
Cohan has written one of the most en-
tertaining plays of the year.

FINDING VICTIMS

STRICKEN CITY

Situation in Stricken District
Appalling

Kagoshima, Japan, Jan. 16.-Many
people OF Kagoshima returned here to
day to find their homes battered into
heaps of debris by the series Of earth
quakes that spread destruction and
death in southern Japan. The refugees
encamped in open spaces, were sup
piled with food from Japanese war
ships.
Exploration of the debris in Kango-
shima has not progressed far enough
to permit Of an estimate of the life
loss
Thirty-three refugees were rescued
from a waste of steaming lava at the
foot of the volcano of Sakura-Jima to-
day. Now no living being remains 50
far as known on the entire island O.
Sakura.
The rescue was affected by boat
crew from the Japanese flagship. AS
soon as the cruiser squadron arrived
here crews were sent out to circle the
island of Sakura, on which the volcano
is situated three miles out in the bay.
The sailors did not risk landing, be-
cause of the terrific heat and noxious
gases, but searched along shore. No
sign of human life was seen until late
in the day, when an officer noticed
something waving in the air near the
shore.
A detachment Of men succeeded in
making their way through soft warm
ashes breast high, until they reached a
great rock. Sheltered behind this, they
found 80 people, still living, but coated
with dust and weakened by starvation.

REPRESENTATIVE GILLETT AT

INVASION OF SOUTHERN REPUB-

Washington, D. c., Jan. 16.-Inter-
vention in Mexico as the emily result
of the present policy of the United
States, was predicted in the house yes
terday by Representative Gillet re-
publican, OF Massachusetts, during a
war speech in which he assailed Sec
rotary Bryan.

sistent application"
Mr.. Gillet denounced the change Of
American policy in China and the ear
ly recognition of the Chinese republic.
No Change in Policy.
There has been no change in the
policy OF the United States in regard to
Mexico This was the substance OF
replies made today by Secretary Bry-
an to several members OF the diplo-
matte corps who called at the state de-
partment. The foreign representatives,
noting the depressing effect upon MeA-
lean bonds held by citizens of their
countries, through the default in the
semi-annual interest payments, had
inquired as to what action, if any, the
United States would take in view OF
the new conditions.
The secretary's callers inferred that
this collapse of Mexican credit abroa
had been fully expected by the admin
istration, and that Mr. Bryan was not
in any sense apprehensiye of foreign
interference in the working out of the
American plans. 1t was made evident,
too, that no thought has yet been Civ
