Colonel C.. c. Bigham, who was among

"A torpedo struck the ship on port
bow at LOS o'clock in the afternoon,
when about 40 miles south of the east
end of the island of Crete. No warn
ing was given nor any attempt made
to assist. Within FIVE minutes the
ship had sunk.
1T was impossible to lower the
starboard boats, owing to the heavy
list. Five or six boats were lowered
on the port side. / didn't see this my
self as / was washed overheard when
the boat capsized.
The conduct Of the passengers and
crew was splendid; there was no
struggling and no panic. Four boats,
after 80 hours at sea. were picked up

TAKE SALTS TO FLUSH
KIDNEYS IF BACK HURTS
Says Too Much Meat Forms Uric Acid
Which Clogs the Kidneys and
Irritates the Bladder.

Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish and clog
ged and need a flushing occasionally,
else we have backache and dull misery
in the kidney region, severe head
aches, rheumatic twinges, torpid liver,
acid stomach, sleeplessness and all
sorts Of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces OF Jad
Salts from any good drug store here,
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with lithia, and is harmless to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity. 1t also neu.
traliZes the acids in the urine so il
no longer i~rritates, thus ending blad.
der disorders.
Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;
makes a delightful ~effervescent lith;a
water drink which everybody should
take now and then to keep their kid
neys clean, thus avoiding serious com
~plications.
A well-known local druggist says he
sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who be-
lieve in overcoming kidney trouble
while it is only trouble.-Adv.

BILIOUS, HEADACHY,
SICK "%CASCARETS"
Gently cleanse your liver and
sluggish bowels while
you sleep.
Get a 10-cent box.

Sick headache, biliousness, dizzi-
ness. coated tongue, foul taste and foul
breath-always trace them to torpid
liver; delayed, fermenting food in the
bowels or sour, gassy stomach.
Poisonous matter clogged in the in
testines, instead of being cast out
of the system is r~e-absorbed into the
blood. When this poison reaches the
delicate brain tissue it causes con-
gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick
ening headache.
Cascarets Immediately cleanse the
stomach, remove the sour ~undigested
food and foul gases, take the excess
bile from the liver and carry out all
the constipated waste matter and
poisons in the bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will surely
straighten you out by morning. They
work while you sieep-a 10-cent box
from your druggist means your head
clear, stomach sweet and your liver
and bowels regular for months. ADV.

OVERWORk IN MEDIATION CON-
GRESS BETWEEN u. S.. AND
MEXICO FASTENED END,
SAYS PHYSICIAN.
BURIAL WILL TAKE PLACE
AT HOME IN AUGUSTA, GA.
Late Justice, Named by Taft, Had Dis
.tinetion of Being Cne of Few Men,
beers of the Court Appointed by
President of Opposite Po-
litical Faith.

Washington, Jan. 4.-Joseph Rucker
Lamar, associate justice OF the SUI
p-eme court of the United States, died
at his home here after an illness OF
several months. He was So years old
and had been on the supreme bench
five years.
The immediate cause of death was
heart disease, fastened by inflamma-
ton of one of the lungs which had
threatened to develop into pneumonia.
Due To Overwork.
The attending physician declared,
however, that the primary cause was
overwork due to the arduous duties
of a member Of the supreme court
and as commissioner of the United
States in 1914 to the mediation con
ference between the United States
and Mexico at Niagara Falls.
Arrangements for the funeral have
not been completed, but the burial
will take place at Augusta, Ca, for
many years the home of the justice.
The funeral party will leave Wash
ington for Augusta, Tuesday at 3
p. m.
Taft Made Appointment.
Justice Lamar had the distinction
of being one of the few members of
the court appointed by a president of
opposite political faith. President
Taft appointed him in 1910 with only
two precedents for such action, those
of Justice Jackson and Lurton.
About the time Justice Lamar re-
turned to Washington last fall a move
ment was started to have Congress
legislate so as to enable him to re-
tire on full pay. At that time Secre-
tary Lane of the interior department
and Solicitor General John w. Davis
were mentioned in discussions of his
possible successor.

Reuters Cairo correspondent makes
the ~unreserved statement that Mr.. Nc
Medley lost his life. Charles II. Grant
of Boston was saved.

was larger than was hoped when the
first news was received Saturday. The
Penin5ular and Oriental company,
which owned the Persia, announced
that 1853 survivors had arrived at

ter's correspondent at Cairo. "She had

a miracle that anyone was saved.
There was no panic. Four boats were
launched with the utmost prompti-
tude.
"The captain was drowned. When
last seen he was swimming after the
liner had plunged beneath the sur-
face"
Both the Peninsular and Oriental
company and Reuters Cairo CORE

Astor Elevated
to the Peerage
by King George

London, Jan. 3.-The comforting of a
peerage on William Waldorf Aston, the
wealthy American citizen. who years
ago became an expatriate, was a sur
prise. Another surprise is the ap-
pointment of Crooks, the labor lead
er, to the privy council.
Astor's title is considered the full

him to England years ago. There is

BRITISH CRUISER IS BLOWN UP
DESTROYED BY MYSTERIOUS EX-
PLOSiON IN HARBOR.
Three Hundred Perish in Fourth Baf-
fling Accident of Kind Since
Nov. 20, 1914.

London, Jan. 3. Three hundred
British seamen of the crew of the
cruiser Natal died when the vessel
was blown to pieces by a mysterious
internal explosion, probably in
S~heerness harbor. This is the fourth
battling accident which has cost the
British navy a vessel since Nov. 26,

The battleship Bulwark was blown
up iH S~heerness harbor on Nov. 26,
1914, with the loss of about 500 lives.
The converted cruiser Princess Irene
was blown to bits in exactly the same
spot May q, 1915, with a loss of
about 800 lives, her destruction being
so complete that there were no sur
vivors.
Battleship Lost in Channel.
In addition to these vessels blown
up in their harbor, the British battle
ship Formidable was destroyed on
Jan. l, 1915, by an explosion in the,
English channel.
Though the causes of these explo-
sions were never learned, it was
thought German conspirators were re-
sponsible.
