world,s oreatest Ranana zone.

Costa Rica, the greatest banana
country of the western hemisphere,
produces more lunches of the fruit
Of the Musa Sapientium than any
other single country on the American
continent. 1t exports from 100000
to 100000 punches. Nearly 800
square miles Of land are included in
the banana zone, though not all this
tract is under cultivation. During the
past few years there seems to be a
falling Off in the yield of the banana,
due partly to a disease whose origin
and elimination are yet uRsolved
problems, although the subject of
much scientific study and investiga-
ton. Nevertheless new plantations
are being made at various points in
the fruit districts, while much Of the
abandoned lands are being planted IN
cacao. This latter product is thriving
splendidly.

ATTEMPT TO ENJOIN
STATE VETERINARIAN

Cordele, Ga, September Al.
Gordon Jones, representing a
large number OF citizens of
Thomas, Colquitt, Lowndes and
Brooks counties, flied in the ST.
Iperlor court of Thomas county
Saturday a suit for injunction
against DR.. Peter F. Bahnser,
state veterinarian, and the local
cattle inspectors of Thomas coun-
ty.
The petition was presented to
Judge Walter F. Sheppard, of the
Atlantic judicial circuit, at Clax-
ton, Ga, Friday by Jones, and an
order of the court was passed re-
qulring the defendants to appear
before Judge w. f. Thomas, of
the southern circuit, at Valdosta,
Ga, on September %, and show
why permanent injunction should
not be granted against them, from
further enforcing the compulsory
dipping of native cattle, which
are claimed to be immune in the
carrying on of the cattle tick
eradication campaign put on by
DIR. Bahnsen in a number of coun-
ties of the state.
The complainants allege that
native cattle are immune from
any contagious or infectious dis
eases caused by reason of the
cattle having ticks on them. Mr..
Jones attacks the constitutional
ty of the acts of 1909 and 1910 on
the ground that there is no pro-
vision made for the state veteri
marian and his agents to put on
the people an arbitrary rule and
force the dipping of cattle, which
are said to be immune from the
disease which they claim can be
eradicated.

HUSBAND OF DEAD LEX

Athens, Sept. 4.-Thaddcus
Chain, arrested at the home OF
his mother at Lexington late yes
terday, after the funeral of his
murdered wife, and suspected of
the crime, and rushed to the coun-
ty prison here for safe keeping,
was spirited away from the third
story Jail floor of the big down
town court house in the heart of
Athens and taken in an automo-
bic by Sheriff Watkins, of Ogle-
thorpe, and Detective Scott Jask-
son, presumably to Atlanta.
Across the street from the
courthouse in the big Moss audi
torlum tonight Hon. Hugh M.
Dorsey addressed the people of
this section of the state. Hun
dreds of Oglethorpe county peo-
pie were expected by the officers
to attend the meeting. The Clarke
county Jail is mob proof and the
leading Oglethorpe county peo-
pie declared that Chain was as
safe in the Jail at Lexington as
in Athens or Atlanta, and that
there was not the slightest dam
ger OF anything like resistance to
the law or to the officers, but the
precauton was taken.
Chaffin made statement to
visitors in the Jail today that he
was not guilty, that he was sew
eral miles away from the scene of
the murder at the time, and that
there was another man in the
case, who might know more
about than any one else. The
clothing OF the dead woman is
said to have been found in tub
at the spring back of the home
without sign of blood on them.
Other developments are expect
ed at any time in this most SEN
satlonal case that has stirred this
section in years.

consented to have his name presented
TO the people of Georgia as candidate
for one of the newly-appointed Judge
ships on the Court Of Appeals.
Colonel Jones, who is native Geor-
Sisn, has lived all of his life in this
state and has always devoted himself
to its best interests. He has been
very active both in his public and re-
hgious endeavors, and has acquired
a well-deserved reputation for un-
swerving integrity and devotion to
duty.
Colonel Jones has practiced law in
Richmond County for over thirty
years, and it is tribute TO his hon
csty and ability that at this time the
Bar OF Richmond County has unani-
znously and urgently endorsed him for
the position of Judge of the Court of
Appeals.
As further evidence of the esteem
IN which Colonel Jones is held, it is
interesting to note that he has re-
ceived the unqualified endorsement Of
all three of the Representatives from
Richmond County.
Colonel Jones is a man of splendid
education and firm religious princi-
pies, being graduate of Mercer Uni
versity and having held many respon.
