REVIVAL SERVICES GROW
IN INTEREST EACH DAY

Revival services at the Furlow Lawn
Baptist church grown in interest each
day. Large congregations greet the
minister and his co-workers at each
service. Already the Ieaven has begun
to work and without doubt great good
will be accomplished at these meet
ings.
Last night Rev. E. H. Jennings, the
evangelist, delivered very powerful
and effective sermon having for his
subject THE Wrath of God" He
handled his theme in masterful mar,
ner, bringing home to his audience the
many salient truths contained therein
and convincingly setting forth that the
only way to escape Gods wrath is
through Jesus Christ.
The singing which is being conduct
ed by Mr.. A. A. Lyon, assisted by a
choir of about twenty-five boys and
girls is a feature of these services.
Those attending, of one accord
speak of the singing as most delight
Jul part of the services.
Let everybody in Americas who
can attend these meetings. The min
lister, Rev. R. L. Bivins, and the evan
gelist will give you a hearty welcome.

DRESS WARM and
KEEP feet DRY
Tells rheumatism Sufferers TO Take
Salts and Get Rid of Uric Acid.

Rheumatism is no respecter Of
age, sex, color or race. If not the most
dangerous of human affections it is
ole Of the most painful. Those sub
ject to rheumatism should eat less
meat, dress as warmly as possible,
avoid any undue exposure and, above
all, drink lots of water.
Rheumatism is caused by uric acid
which is generated in the bowels and
absorbed into the blood. 1t is the func-
ton of the kidneys to filter this acid
from the blood and cast it out in the
urine, the pores of the skin are also a
means of freeing the blood of this i'm
purity In damp and chilly, cold
weather the skin pores are closed
thus forcing the kidneys to do double
work, they become weak and sluggish
and fail to eliminate this uric acid
which keeps accommodating and circul-
ating through the system eventually
settling in the joints and muscles caus-
ing stiffness, soreness and pain called
rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces Of Jad Salts; put tablespoon
full in a glass of water and drink be.
fore breakfast each morning for a
week. This is said to eliminate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys 10
normal action, thus Kidding 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 a pleas
ant, efferyescent lithia- water drink
which oyercomes uric acid and is ben
efrcial to your kidneys as well.

ATLANTA, Ca, April 4-Will Solic-
iior General Hugh Dorsey, of Fulton
Superior court who attracted nation
wide attention by his prosecution Of
Leo N. Frank for the murder of Mary
Phagan, be able to fasten upon Victor
j Innes and his wife responsibility for
the mysterious disappearance of Mrs.
Lloise helms Dennis and Miss Beatrice
Nelms, the Atlanta sisters who left
home two years ago and dropped out
OF sight as completely as if the earth
had opened and swallowed them?
lines and his wife are now enroute
to Atlanta from San Antonio, Tex, in
the custody of officers sent to bring
them here for trial on charges OF
larceny after trust. They resisted ex-
tradition all the way to the United
States supreme court and lost. Now
they must face trial in Atlanta.
Although the technical charge
against them is larceny after trust
which itself is a felony, and on which
there are several indictments against
both-it is generally believed that Sol
icitor Dorsey, who has been at work on
tie case two years with the assistance
Of Marshal Nelms, brother of the miss
ing sisters, has in reserve a mass of
evidence upon which he will under
take to show that Innes and his wife
were responsible for the strange dis
appearance of the Atlanta girls whose
case created a sensation throughout
the country.
Victor E. Innes, said to be a man Of
remarkable fascination for women ex-
erted, it is claimed, hypnotic infI-
ence over Mrs. Eloise helms Dennis.
1t appeared that she was bent upon
marrying him and giving him all her
property. Her sister, Miss Beatrice
a leVel-headed girl and a success in
business, was bent upon breaking In
nes' spell. Mrs. Dennis left Atlant"
to meet Innes. Her sister followed to
prevent the meeting They never
came back and have never since been
heard from

Caplan on Trial in Los Angeles
Times Dynamiting Case This Week

LOS ANGELES, Cal, April A
David Captain, placed on trial here
April 3, was indicted with Math-
ew A. Schmidt on charge of murder, in
connection with the death of Charles
Eagerly, one of twenty persons who
lost their lives as a result OF the dyna-
hitting of the Los Angeles Times build
ing, October /, 1910. Schmidt was con-
victed December 80, 1915, and was SEN
fenced January II, 1916, to imprison-
ment for life in San Quentin peniten-
larry. His appeal is pending in the
State District Court of Appeal.
Captain obtained a severance when
the trial of Schmidt opened. He was
refused permission to be present az
the trial.
The arrests came seemingly out of a
clear sky. Schmidt was picked up on
Broadway, New York City, February
Is, 1915, and five days later, Captain
was arrested at Port Orchard, Wash
ington, on the other edge Of the CON
tinent. Donald Vose Meserve, who
lived at Home Colony, near Port Orch
ard, supplied to a detective agency the
necessary information. Home Colony
is settlement of persons of radical
views. Captain was raising poultry on
a small ranch he owned at Port Orch
ard. Before that he was a barber.
For ten years he had lived about on the
Pacific coast.
A good deal of the states case
against Captain necessarily was
brought out at the trial of Schmidt. 1t
was testified that the trail of the men
who dynamited the Times waspicked UP
at the Ferry building in San Francisco
where a suit case with telltale evidence
was found, Captain, according to this
testimony, was supposed to get this
suitcase from the Ferry building check
room, but somehow failed to do so. The
suitcase evidence led to discovery OF
dynamite in a vacant house; that clue
ran to a powder works and the assist
ant manager of the powder company
identified Schmidt and Captain as two
of three men who bought the evxplos-
i've. Caplan also was identified as the
man who rented the house where il
was found. Two hundred witnesses
were subponead by the prosecution in
the Schmidt trial, including Ortie E.
McManigal, the informer who supplied
the state much of its case against John
j. Mcnamara, secretary of the Inter
national Association of Bridge and

Speculation Made on The
Case of lines and Wife

Did Beatrice break the spell; did her
sister then commit suicide, and did In
mes then put Beatrice out of the way
for revenge? Or did Beatrice helms
herself fall under the mans mysterious
influence, and give him all her money,
and did he then cast off both the girls?
These and many other strange ques-
tions may be answered when Solicitor
Hugh Dorsey brings Innes and his
wife to trial.

Structural Iron workers and his broth
e. James B. Mcnamara. James plead
ed guilty to murder in connection with
the Times dynamiting, and is now
serving a life sentence in San Quentin
penitentiary. John pleaded guilty to
dynamiting the Llwellyn Iron works in
Los Angeles, and is serving a fourteen
year sentence. In general, the same
witnesses who appeared against
Schmidt are to appear against Captain.
Ninteen indictments charging mur-
der still stand against Schmidt and
James B. Mcnamara; twenty indict,
ments for murder stand against John

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET FLUcTUATED.
Caused By. Renewed Activities of the
 Teutonic Naval Forces.

New York, Jan. 3.-On the stock ex- change the new year began with some misgivings, in consequence of the sinking of the British liner Persia and the further activities of the Teutonic naval forces Opening prices were one to over four points lower, but these losses were largely .regained, only to fall back again. Before mid day another rally effaced most de- clines and thereafter the record, for the most part, was one of irregular advances.
 Oil shares, more particularly Mexi- can Petroleum which with last weeks buoyant rise, were once more the speetacuIar features, Mexican making a maximum gain of G. 5-8, at 129 5-S.S This represents an advance of almost s22 points over it's final quotation of week ago. California Petroleum which, according to rumor, is to merge with Mexican, also was strong, kthe common advancing 4 5-8 to Az 5-S and the preferred 2 1-s to 80 3-S. of 4 at TT and Texas Company came within striking distance of its record on the advance of two to 235 1-2 United States Steel was forced into second place by reason of the extra ordinary of the oil group, but was fairly steady after the first hour of uncertainty, recovering from the low prices of 87 7-S to 89 and closing at S8 1-2, net loss of 3-8. Metal shares were conspicuous, but under moderate pressure except American Smelling. which made an extreme rise of Ia to. Ill 5-8.
