Yet Is Insignificant Com pared to Texas Spot Where
 Vitalitas Is Found

Among the clouds in the Andes noun tans of South America is one spot that may be the closest approach to the Vi talitas phenomenon found in Texas. One must travel out of Valparaiso on nar- row gauge railroad up dizzy heights to get to the Andean wonder. There medi- cated waters burst out of mountain side that are said to outrival in curative properties those of Carlsbad. Bath or Hot Springs. Thousands are constantly making the tortuous journey to- them in the hopes of regaining lost health.
 Medicinal waters, as rule. have but faint traces of the curative properties and forces found within the earth. In the Texas Vitalitas stratum some of the most beneficial of these are found in full strength, and so blended as to make the most effective natural medicine known. The properties and forces are extracted chemically pure, in liquid form, and con- stitutes what is rfQw 50 widely known as Vitalitas. Cures 6f chronic disorders of stomach. liver ki6ueys. bowels and blood, even where all >else has failed, are constantly reported from the use of Vitalitas.

DIOCESE
 IS DOWN ID WORK
Address of Bishop Beckwith Features Session at
 AnnistOn

Anniston. May 5.-iSpecial )-Following the confirmation service and the unyeil- ing of the memorial window to the late Father J. H. Blacklock at St. Michaers s yesterday evening and the communion service at Grace church this morning, the Episeoual diocesan council of Ala bama got down to real business. This afternoon the delegates were taken on an auto ride over the city following the business session, and a missionary serv- ice was held at Grace church this eve- ming.
 The feature of todays business was the address by Bishop Beckwith who reported the organization of five new churches during the year. He took great pleasure in reporting harmony and the absence of "isms" in the diocese and dwelt at some length on changes that have taken place within the year. He paid high tribute to the late D. M. Drernen, of Birmingham; to Sister Marie, of Mobile, and other deceased members. The greater part of his report had to do with a discussion of the Mobile Or pharage home, upon the permanent SUD- port of which the council will vote to- morrow
 A spirited debate took place in the afternoon over the proposition of Ala bama's entering the provincial division. At present Alabama, Kansas and Mary land are the only three holding to the diocesan division and Bishop Bec1xwith opposes a change. This also will be voted on Thursday morning, and it is question of great interest.
 The first business meeting of the council was held at the Masonic hall after the services at Grace church were concluded

 Atlanta, May 5.--Leo M. Franks at- torneys here in a statement given out today said that they understood the object of the motion made in the Uni ted States supreme court was simply to notify all that Franks counsel had no intention of filing a motion for re- nearing on the habeas corpus applica tion or taking any other steps for de- lay and that they had no objection to the mandate issuing at once.
 Those representing Franks applica- ton before the prison commission and the governor for communication of the
 
 tinues, have no desire to hasten or retard the hearing before either ti.e governor or the commission. They wish and expect the application to take the usual and ordinary course"
 Franks counsel here understand that the request before the supreme court for issuance of the mandate was made by Attorney Louis Marshall of New York, who has had charge of the Frank case at Washington. It Is ex- pected that the mandate will reach the federal court here the last of this week and that Frank win be taken before the county superior court for resent ence next Saturday or Monday. The day term of the prison commission ends Saturday and a hearing on Franks application would not be given until the June term, which begins June ', unless a special session of the com mission was held. and this the prison commission states is unlikely.

Der of the committee. His opening re- marks were confined to an explanation of the purposes of the society, which he said was purely for advancing sugges- tions for the better standardization of court procedure Mr. Harley stated the court procedure MT. Harwel stated the society had under preparation two bills, one for metropolitan court the other for a state wide court. Both bills had been drafted along the lines of the Brit ish and Canadian courts. with the addi- tion of methods from many of the states of the union where reform had been made in the court procedure.
 Ehe proposition was in the line of a consolidated court with a governing and directing head who should hold the judges responsible for any inattention to their duties. and that they should be punished for dereliction of duty The question as to how the governing body and the judges were to be selected brought about quite discussion. Mr, Harley cited Massachusetts and Onta- rio Canada, as two states in which all judges held a life tenure of office and declared that in both the system worked well. He said the society favors the selection of judges by experts rather than by vote of the people.
 He suggested that the committee make report on what their ideal of a court should be and stated he would present drafts of the two bills pre- so desired. He will conclude his ad- dress this morning by citing notabis instances of judicial reform of recent years including the municipal court of Chicago.
