j. s. TROOPS MUST
CLEAN Up MEXICO.
On WILSON LOSES.

Americas people wo have observed
events occurring along the Mexican
border in recent months, will be in
terested in a letter received today by
Mr.. R. C. Moran from his cousin, DR..
Nj. j. Moran, who resides at Deming,
N. M, only few miles from Column
bus, the town raided by Villa, and who
tells graphically of conditions as they
are there.
DR.. Moran, in connection with other
matters of personal nature writes:
THE war is still on, though we have
had no disturbance closer than the
border or Columbus, and at the latter
place only on one occasion-Villa's
raid. The United States government
has wished all the cripples and other
prisoners on Deming, and the county
has to take care of them. On April
2Cth, the trial of the remaining six
captives took place in the federal court
here. The jury trying the case was
out just thirty minutes, and each of
the defendants was sentenced to hang.
There has been lot of army equip
ment passing through Deming, such as
auto trucks, ETC., and there is much ac-
tivity at Columbus, thirty miles south
OF here in this county, but no condition
of actual war yet The hope is general
ly expressed throughout this section
that the United States army will stick
to its task and clean up lawless
conditions in Mexico for good. If they
are withdrawn before this task is ac-
complished, fear, there will not be
democrat left in this part of the coun-
try-at least, not Wilson democrat.

IF KIDNEYS and
BLADDER BOTHER
Take q Glass of Salts to Flush Out
Your Kidneys and Neutralize
Irritating Acids.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
where it often remains to irritate and
iEfame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer is in
constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with a scalding sensation
and is very profuse; again. there is
difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
it, because they can't control urina
ton. While it is extremely annoying
and sometimes painful, this is really
enc of the most simple ailments 10
overcome. Get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in glass of wa
ter before bre akfast continue this for
two or three days. This will neutral

G, is a source Of irritation to the
ladder and urinary organs which
then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caus-
ed by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts
ic splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, efferves-
cent lithia-w water drink, which quickly

The Sport World With Local

OF the 1912 Lanier football team, which
organization gave the local High

ever sustained in the pigskin game.
Morgan was captain of the Lanier bas-

feated the Americas High school five

Bloodworth is a very reliable pitcher
and is depended upon to show Ameri-
Gus fans and Elk visitors the stuff his

who won fame in football by his spec
tacular SO-yard run against Florida, is
playing first base for the Baptists, and
it is said this man is even better as a
baseball player than as a football ar
fist. Swami is good batter, and one
OF the best all-round fielders in the
game.
Weaver is utility pitcher, catcher
and outfielder, and one of the very
best in everything connected with
baseball.
Mike Donahue, of Auburn, and Jake

You Can Drink This Famous

It's the Wonderful Old Secret Blent

Even hundred years ago French
Market Coffee was a favorite drink

ket Coffee the one choice of discrim-
mating coffee drinkers. Many have
tried to initiate this famous blend
but the secret is still a secret.

The biggest series of baseball games
in the history of Americas has ?been
started
Mercer with a formidable bunch is
already here and their eyes are set on
nothing less than a complete victory.
Auburn likewise is just as determined
to retain her record as the only un-
defeated college team in the South, and
if there is any way to hold the Bap-
lists from Macon, these huskies from
our sister state of Alabama are trying
to find it.
This series will settle conclusively
just who is entitled to the S. I. A, A.
ras, as these two teams have demon
strated their strength with the best
mines in collegiate circles. A brief
glance at the personnel of each team
will bring to light names well-known
in all departments of baseball. and
other of the pastimes popular in col
lege and the world generally
Suggs, the Auburn first-string pitch
er, is one of the cleanest sportsmen
in the whole array, and his great
ability as a twirler has been proven
to the satisfaction of many colleges
scattered throughout the South. His
latest feat was in winning a couple of
games from the strong Mississippi ag-
gies, who were reckoned as one of the
strongest teams in the S. 1. A. A.
Suggs in the first game let the ag-
gies down with one run and five hits,
while his teammates hammered Eth
eridge, of Mississippi, for three runs
and the game In the second encount-
er on the next day Suggs won his
game 5 to 4.
In Ducote Auburn possesses a slug
ger of the Speaker and Chancey type.
This man is noted in college circuits
for his bad habit of usually breaking
up a perfectly good ball game with a
circuit clout, and if the Mercer twirl-
ers are not exceedingly wary, this
colIegian will catch one If the bend
ers on the nose and a ball game will
be gone into smoke. With Wynne, the
third baseman of the Auburn crew, left
to care for loose homers, Ducote
should prove a powerful factor in
helping Auburn.
Opposed to these bright lights of the
Alabama colleges lineup, are Fuss,
Morgan, Dewberry, Clements, Sorse-
bee, Bloodworth, and Swami, of Mer-
Ger.
Fuss is the equal of any pitcher in
the S. l. A. A. and from his past per-
tOrmances, this boy shows promise of
all-Southern possibilities. Fuss is
we'll known in Americas, having been
connected with the Lanier (Macon(
High school football team for several
years. This is the first time Americas
fans have had opportunity to see him
perform in the national pastime, how
ever, and they cannot fail to be pleas
eG with his performance.

played before Americas people here
