Arriving at the spot where the real
activities were to begin, We made two
important discoveries.
There was on our tray a heaping or
der of macaroni and cheese, TO which
we had not pointed. while out in the
kitchen loading up, and for which we had
not paid
II was identified by our friend, whose
discovery on bringing up at the table
was that he WAS an order of macaronl
and cheese shy.
Our own second discovery was that
We had forgotten TO ask for or make,

Mystery Is Added to
Mystery in Murray
County Board Middle
Especial Dispatch to The Journal)

Especial Dispatch to The Journal)
DALTON, Ca. Oct. 31.-The question
as to where are the books of the Murray
county board of commissioners is yet
unsolved, and another has been added to
it. 1t is where are d. r. Dunn. chair
man of the board, and j. NJ. Sellers, the
boards attorney?
Following the election in Murray coun-
ty. in which the people voted to abolish
the board of commissioners, the board
went ahead and held it's regular meet
ing. The question was taken before
Judge Fite, who held that the board had
been abolished and ordered the books
turned over to the ordinary The board
insisted that the bill providing for the
election was faulty and carried the mat
ter to the supreme court, where it is
now pending.
On the boards failure to turn over the
books, the sheriff was ordered to seize
them, but they couldn't be found Then
Judge Fite issued a rule nisi, citing the
commissioners and their attorney for
contempt Commissioners Hemphill and
McGhee were released. but Chairman
Dunn and Attorney Sellers were held in
contempt of court and fined $500 each,
being given three days in which to pay
the fine and give up the books or else
go to Jail. So far they have done neith-
er. and the time limit has expired. They
can't be reached for a statement as to
what their move will be, according to
reports here.

the Eastern Forwarding company for sew
eral weeks. This cargo made up in
small packages is slowed in a shed OF
corrugated iron 400 by 25 feet built al
the waters edge on one of the new state
piers recently completed and leased by
the Eastern Forwarding company for an
indefinite period
The Deutschland is securely berthed
here. The North German Lloyd steam
ship Willehad is made fast to piling nj
distance of about fifty feet from the
pier with the stern of the ship hard and
fast against the New London bank of the
Thames river, and in such position that
with the ship on one side and the pier
on the other, and the bank along end
an open water space so by 3S5 feet is
made enclosed on three sides. To COM
plete the enclosure a floating gate bulls
on pontoons is made fast to a piling Sci
at the bow of the Willehad.
Guards from the crew of the Willie
had and private detectives keep all Wis
itors at distance. To prevent the sub
marine being reached by water from I'M
der the piers the piling directly around
the reserved space is heavily wired and
wires electrically connect with an alarm
gong in the Office of the company.
The building of the pier shed and the
assembling of the cargo that will ne
loaded aboard the Deutschland for her
return trip was done in great haste after
the departure of the Deutschland from
Baltimore on her first return voyage. A
large force of men was engaged for the
construction work and the activity con-
tinued day and night until the buildings
were completed. Almost before the roof
was in place the cargo began to arrive.
1t was announced at the time that Sis
ter submersible. the Bremen, was mo-
mentarily expected and it was presumed
that the preparations were for this VeS-
sci.
LETTER FOR BERNSTORFF.
A letter to Count Won Bernstorff, the
German ambassador, was brought by the
Deutschland. The letter was sent to
Washington by special messenger this
afternoon.
On her trip of twenty-one days to this
country the Deutschland submerged only
12O miles near the English coast. If the
crew saw any British or French war
ships on her trip Captain KUenig would
not admit it. "At any rate they did not
see u.s." he is quoted as saying.
Captain Koenig motored to the Gus
toms house at noon and entered the ar
rival of his craft. A crowd cheered
persons grasped his hand with congrat-
ulatory words. Later with Mr.. Mccoy
ern he posed for photographs. He then
returned to the Willehad for dinner.
Within q few days it is expected that
the Deutschland will officially enter heI
cargo. The value of the cargo is said
to be 100000.
Neither Captain Koenig nor his officers
asked any questions concerning the sub
marine Bremen. The officers of the
Deutschland, it is understood, were
aware of the presence of the armed Ger
man submarine U-53 in American waters
recently. They had not heard, however
that she had arrived in Germany safely
and were plainly pleased at the tidings
Captain Koenig said the harbor here is
especially adapted for his boat, and he
believed that if necessary he could safe
ly submerge at the dock and leave the
harbor without anyone knowing it,

Since taking Tanlac l have gained
twelve pounds and when l met an old
physician friend the other day who
used to treat me for my troubles, he
hardly knew me and asked me what
was doing to make me look so well. /
told him 1 was taking nothing but Tan
lac and he said: Well, If it has made
you look this way, stick to it." This
is what Mrs. Nancy Foster, sixty-three
years of age, residing at 1911 Fourth
avenue. Avondale, South Birmingham.

ter for more than eleven years has been
connected with a we'll known tailoring
establishment of that city as fancy
vest maker and is known and held in
high esteem by many of the most prom
inent people in that city.

without being able to get relief" con-
tinued Mrs. Foster, but that's just
what 1 did, and although 1 tried every
thing / knew of L kept getting worse

gan taking the medicine. My troubles

Liquor Packages Pour
Into Express Office as
Winter Winds Blow

Either the people of Fulton county
are being educated up to the mail order
business, or the supply of spirits is
running low, or perhaps the first flash
of winter heralded the call of the wild,
but at any rate the ordinary's office
registers for October the greatest num-
Der of liquor packages yet received.
Forty-five thousand two hundred
and seventy-three packages were re-
ceived in October, an increase of over
1900 over September's record, or six
times the amount brought in during the
merry month of May.
The state of Georgia benefited by the
deal to the extent of $2,S52.20 for Oc-
tober from Fulton county.
The following figures show the in
crease of packages received since the
inception of the registration method.
