NO VIOLENCE IN

Thousands Daily Pleased Over Quiet Way in Which
 Vitalitas Works

"The change came so quietly that scarcely realized at any time the eff feet Vitalitas was having upon me- said Mrs. w. c. Maloney. well known Dallas lady of 915 North Madison street People throughout Alabama who are using Vitalitas will understand just what Mrs. Maloney means. She adds
 Gradually I began to feel better and my nervousness, sleeplessness and stomach troubles, all of which were making serious inroads on my health " ere slipping away. l have taken two bottles of it and If there is anything now the matter with me do not know it. consider myself cured and l con sder Vitalitas one of the greatest things that has been given to mankind"
 Vitalitas when taken into the system, attacks diseased or weakened tissues W herever they exist. It's action Is direct and the good 1t does is constitutional. Such disorders as indigestion, bilious uess, nervous debility, oatarrh, bowel ailments and those insidlous ills of kid neys and liver are overcome and health ful conditions restored.

the railroads. These reports come from
 many parts of the country For instance Julius kruttschnitt has recently spoken Of the highly important results which the
 great railroad system of which he is ex- ecutive will experience by reason of the fine crop conditions in the southwest.
 What Mr. kruttschnitt has said has been supplemented by statements made a few
 days ago by the chairman of the board If
 directors of the Seahoard Air Line S D.
 Warfield. Mir Warfield does not speak at second hand He is a competent witness because his testimony is not hearsay. He has visited many parts of the south. He has gained information from industrial, agricultural and financial leaders there The farmers have told him that when the Indian corn harvest is made in Georgia it will be found the largest ever garnered in that state and other crops than cot
 ton, which also is a promising one are to yield a very large harvest. Such re-
 suits have followed diversified agriculture
 in Georgia.
 He found that the busy men of the
 south are no longer anxious, but are anil
 mated by hope of a successful year. The only discouraging feature he met with
 was the fact that there is an impression that something must be done for the cot ton grower In his view. this impression
 does the cotton planter injustice, for he is quite able to look after his own af- fairs He fears that the impression has 1 been created by a certain type of political | agitators Conditions throughout the south as he found them, persuaded him
 that there is to be greatly increased de- mand for railroad transportation through out the south, and this will be of great
 benefit to the railroads financially. l Passing from the south to the north west it is discovered that conditions
 there, so far as the railroads are con
 cerned, are similar to those in the south. l Traffic Manager Johnson of the Chicago Northwestern finds that crop conditions | throughout the northwest fully justify the expectation of great increase of the earn | ngs of the railroads Newman Erb has spoken the same way. as has also Presi- dent Hannaford of the Northern Pacific. | A few days ago there appeared an an- nouneement of the purpose of the Atlanta and Charlotte Air Line Railroad company | in association with an offering of a block | of first mortgage bonds. So far as the public is concerned, the important feature | of this announcement lies in the purpose
 of this offering The money obtained by
 the sale of the bonds is to be spent in double tracking the line and for other | improvements. So the time has come when some of the railroad companies of
 the United States feel they may be justi- | fled in expending large amounts upon | improvements. Not much work of that | kind has been under way for the past two l or three years.
 The Canadian railroads. especially the
 Canadian Pacific, will In all probability be | greatly benefited by the crops of this year
 In fact Canada's harvest of wheat is
 likely to be so great that the Canadian 1 railroads will be somewhat embarrassed | in hauling it from the fields to the mar 1 kets.

MOTHER AND FOUR CHILDREN FOUND
 DEAD IN A WELL
Mrs. Lee Tatum Believed to Have Become Insane, Slain Babes and
 Shielded

Prattville, August 6.-(Special)-Tt was learned here this morning that Mrs. Lee Tatum, the wife of a farmer who resides
 about 10 miles north of this city, and her four children were found last night
 about midnight, and after a long search in the well located on the premises. It
 is said the father and husband, Lee Ia
 tum, was out in his farm at work as
 usual yesterday afternoon, and had oc-
 cason to go to the house about o'clock,
 saw his wife did not note anything un-
 usual about her, and when he returned at late hour in the afternoon he found
 no one at home She had once before
 gone to a neighbor's house with her four
 small children, and the husband thought
 he says, that she had gone the same
 way he went to the neighbours and found
 that neither she nor the children had been
 seen. Searching party was then organized, i,
 they search until a late hour in the night. The buckets at the well appeared slight ly oeranged it was suggested by some one that they try in the we'll The father
 and Lee Tatum secured hooks and in fishing in the well soon drew one of the
 smaller children to the top of the water One by one they were pulled from the well. the mother and four children, boys ranging in ages from months to eight or 9 years. It is reported here that no bruises were found on the bodies of any of the children or the mother; that the
 necks of two of the children were found to be broken. It was said that the chil-
 dren showed they tried to keep from | drowning by the position their bodies were found in.
 | It is supposed that Mrs Ia tum became
 insane and threw all her children in the well and some hours after jumped in her self. This is supposed because her body
 was not rigid when taken out. Then, too, , she was seen at the house about o'clock yesterday afternoon, but no children were
 seen at that time. She had shown some
 signs of being unbalanced in her mind | for several days.

 sented the wreckage of the ambitioos
 dreams of Charles S. Mellen completely
 to unify the transportation system in New England.
 Mr. Elliott could not contemplate any pecuniary benefit through his resigna- ton of the presidency of the Northern
 Pacific to accept supreme executive au- thority over the New Haven railroad sys- tenn. The salary was the same Tn each office. But there did seem to be oppor- tunity to achieve greatly in the field of constructive effort. If he could quicken

 ranked among the great constructive forces in American railroad life. His first
 year in the administration of this road
 was not ging, but at the end of his second year he has been able to report that the net earnings create a surplus of S2, AIS. 600. Presumably some years will
 pass before payment of dividends Is re- sumed, but President Elliott is putting value into the property and this has been recognized by appreciation in the market quotations for it's stock.
 Its Broadest Significance
 Some of those who have been watching closely the progress which President FL liott has made and who are familiar with railroad conditions in other parts of the country speak of the report he made to 1 his directors day or two before his va | cation began as having a much broader significance than any which Is associated | with New England interests exclusively. | For the report seems to reflect eondi- ! tions which are prevailing in the railroad world.
