WASHINGTON ALARMED.
u. y. Expected to Call Germany TO
Account.

wAsHfSoroN. May 3.-Grcater anxi-
city exists in Washington tonight over
reports OF the torpedoing Of the Ameri-
can tank ship Gulhight by a German
submarine than has been caused by any
previous event growing out OF the war.
The brief reports received at the State
Department from the consulate at Plym-
outh leave much to be desired as TO
circumstances which must be known
positively before the full effect OF the
incident internationally can be foreseen.
Secretary Bryan has called upon the De-
partments representatives both In Eng
land and Germany to forward at once
eli facts ,,tainable In the case.
IL was strongly Indicated here to-day
that officials might find it difficult to
view the sinking OF the Gulhight by
itself. Instead of being considered as an
isolated case II Is regarded rs more the
eliminating incident In a series, each
excessively manifesting, II not dehb.
crate intent TO affront the United states,
st least an alarming disregard OF Ameri.
can rights and the respect due the
American Government.
No Choice of Action.
That it will be for Germany herself
20 decide whether the friendly relations
between the two Governments shall con-
finue uninterrupted or not was the very
positive statement made here to-day. 1t
was pointed out that the facts in the
Gulflight case as they have been de-
<cloped thus far leave the United States
no choice OF action but the calling Of
Germany TO account for the attack by
her armed forces upon the American
rag. II Germany chooses TO be dis.
agreeable In replying TO the United
states demands for PREPARATION II will
BE impossible to foretell what the effect
may be on the relations between the
two nations. on the other hand. II Ger
many should apologize for the act OF her
naval commander and offer money
PREPARATION the incident probably would
have no serious consequences.
II is admitted Ia official quarters that
much will depend as regards the stu
alton between The United States and Ger
many on public opinion in the United
States. II IL no secret that for some
weeks officials here have been carefully
observing whether the public took the
came view of recent German activities
as has been taken in official quarters.
The official knowledge of the state
department on the buinlsht ease -
limited to two dispatches received
within a few hours of each other this
afternoon from Consul stephens AT
Plymouth. England. His first despatch
was as follows.
American tank steamer Gulfight
forpedoed off Scilly first instant
Captain died, heart failure; body
landed. Two of crew drowned.

Long TINE BETWEEN DRINKS
South Carolina Solons Consider Definite
Interval on the Libation Period

Spartanburg, 5. c.. Feb. 3.-On that
remote occasion when the Governor of
North Carolina. meeting the Governor
OF South Carolina, uttered his memor.
able observation concerning the chron-
illogical interval between lbations. lit
tie did he wot what he was starting.
1t is indeed going to be long time
between drinks in South Carolina, if.
as seems likely, the Legislature passes
and the present Governor signs a bill
now pending.
The bill -ermits eacn South Caro-
hnian to receive just one CD shipment
OF 'corn licker' per month. such ship
ment not to exceed one % gallon.
Thus. by legislative Interpretation, the
exact length of time between drinks
mas finally been settled. 1t is one
month, thirty days at the least, and to
make matters worse for the brethren,
1916 is leap year!
In the historic words of a hardy
scion of Carolina, "'Do YOU all expect
airy gallon o corn Ticker to last for
ever, with six head o. children, when
the cows gone dry?" None the less
the fatal measure has already passed
the House and has been favorably re.
ported to the State Senate.

FLOOD RECEDES
The Crest Reached at Midnight When a
Stage Of 25.5 Feet Was
Registered
BY associated Press.

Pittsburgh, Pa, Feb. 3.-The fooi
which inundated the low-lying sections
along the Allegheny and Ohio rivers,
began receding slowly early to-day and
Forecaster Henry w. Pennywitt de-
clared all danger had passed. The crest
was reached at midnight when stage
of 2S5 feet was registered.
Some suffering was reported from
the flooded districts but policemen in
boats took food and fuel to families
who had been imprisoned in the upper
stories of their homes during the night.
There was little actual damage along
the rivers, however, warning having
been given in ample time for precau-
tionary measures.
Thousands of men were thrown out
of work when mills along the Allie
gheny river were flooded but it was be-
lieved they would be able to return to
work within few days.
According to the police no lives have
been lost in the flood although there
have been many narrow escapes. A re.
port to the police last night said that
two women frantically calling for help
were seen on house boat which was
being swept down the Allegheny river.
The boat was not located and the rumor
was generally doubted.

MANY CASES OF
RHEUMATISM NOW
Says We Must Keep Feet Dry,
Avoid Exposure and
Eat Less Meat

Stay off the damp ground. avoid ex.
posure. keep feet dry, eat less meat,
drink lots of water, and above all take
a spoonful of salts occasionally to keep
down uric acid.
Rheumatism is caused by poisonous
toxin, called uric acid, which is gene.
rated in the bowels and absorbed into
the blood. 1t is the function of the
kidneys to filter this acid from the
blood and east it out in the urine. The
pores of the skin are also a means of
freeing the blood of this impurity. In
damp and chilly, cold weather the skin
pores are closed, thus forcing the kid
neys to do double work, they become
weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate
this uric acid which keeps accommodating
and circulating through the system.
eventually settling in the Joints and
muscles causing stiffness, soreness and
pain called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put tablespoonful
in a glass of water and drink before
breakfast each morning for a week.
This is said to eliminate uric acid bv
stimulating the kidneys to normal Nac-
ton, thus ridding the blood of these
Impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject to
rheumatism. Here you have pleasant,
effervescent hthia-water drink which
overeomes uric acid and is beneficial
to your kidneys as well.-Adv.
