PLAN MAMMOTH
LAND BATTLESHIP
FOR FUTURE war
Super-Tank With Wheels 200
Feet High Proposed by Phil
adeIphia Inventor.
SWEEP away ARMY OBSTACLE
Would Cross Rivers and Valleys as
Easily as an Automobile Takes .
Depression in Road-Guns to
Be Smallest Part of De-
stroying Power.

New YOrk.-A land battleship, with
wheels 200 feet high, driven by engines
of many thousand horse power, able to
cross the Hudson as If it were a mud
puddle and daring the British tanks
as q locomotive does a hand car, is
the prediction Of Frank Shuman, the
Philadelphia inventor, whose concrete
piling and wire glasses, says the New
York Times, made him famous. Mr..
Shuman believes that the next war will
bring a juggernaut that could NOW
through an army as easily as through
field of wheat. Its giant wheels
would have to turn over just Is times
to cover a mile; its giant size would
send it over rivers and valleys as cas-
lily as an automobile takes a fOOt-wide
depression in the road.
Mr., Shuman says there Is nothing
technically impossible about such a
machine, which would mean to land
battles what the superdreadnaught
means to war upon the seas. Guns
would be the smallest part of the de-
stroying power of such a monster,
which by sheer force would sweep
away almost any obstacle the enemy
could oppose. In the December is
sue of the Popular Science Monthly
Mr.. Shuman has written a description
of what he believes such an instru.
ment of war would be.
"a club, a bow and arrow, blum
derbuss, an infantryman's rifle, 40.

SWAMP-R STOPS
SERIOUS BACKACHE

When your back aches, and your blad-
der nd kidneys seem to be disordered, re-
member it is needless to suffer-go to your
nearest drug store and get q bottle of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root. 1t is a physician's
prescription for diseases of the kidneys
and bladder.
It has stood the test of years and has
. reputation for quickly and effectively
giving results in thousands of cases.
This prescription was used by DR.. Kill
mer in his private practice and was 30
very effective that it has been placed on
sale everywhere. Get a bottle, SOC and
3l.O0, at your nearest druggist.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for .
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

WHISPERS UNDER THE BAN
Prejudice Against Facial Adornment
Was Very Strong Some Gen.
turtles Ago.

Nowhere was there more prejudice
against boards than at the Inns Of
Court centuries ago. The "Black
Books" Of Lincoln's inn of the six
teenth century are full of references
to offenders who were 'fyned double
comens durynge such tyne as they
shall have any berde." This proving
ineffective, a whole batch Of bearded
barristers was in 1854 "banysshed from
We howse," and shortly afterward a
judges order was obtained for the COM
pulsory shaving Of some Of the men,
bers. The Inner temple benches were
not quite so severe, for a fine of 20s
was the sole penalty imposed in 1855
for "wearying beardes Of more than
three weekes growthe." The war
against bearded barristers continued
at the Inns of Court until the seven
teenth century.
Long after this, however, the preju-
dice against the unshaved barristers
remained. Vice Chancellor Ba-
con carried his dislike so far that he
always refused to listen to bearded or
mustached counsel, pretending that he
could not hear them. Even now, al
though there are plenty of bearded BAR
risters and X. C.'s, few have attained
eminence. The most brilliant excep-
ton was perhaps the late Judah Philip
Benjamin, "silver-tongued Benjamin"
who despite his mustache and Ameri-
can "goatee" earned the princely in
come Of $4,000 year.-LOndon

build steam engines of 10000 horse
power fed by oil-fired boilers.
1.-THE weight of the entire structure
would be probably 5000 tons. Since
the machine is to batter down every
thing in it's path, there would be sus-
pended from the front Of the machine
a series of heavy weights, each weigh
ing several tons. Their impact at high
speed would level everything before
them.
Terrible as this continuance would
be it would not be able to withstand
bombardment by 16-inch Sodka or
Krupp guns. 1t is not intended for
that. Ordinary field artillery would
not stop it. Its sole purpose is to
move up and down an enemy country.
to make a wide region. untenable, to
crush down resistance offered by Or
binary field Notifications.
Imagine yourself standing at one
front wheel of this machine. COmpar-
atively you would be no bigger than
a baby standing beside the driving
wheel of passenger locomotive. Far
above you would be the maze of spOkes
constituting the latticed wheel.
Perched midway between the two gil
gantic wheels as tall as an Office build
ing would be the ship-shaped armOr car
for the engines and crew. You reach
it by means Of an elevator. With the
commander you step into the coming
tOwer-a circular armOred chamber
well forward, dominating the entire
landscape.
"The commander gives a signal. The
machine moves. 1t gains Roadway.
Soon it travels at express train speed.
A mile ahead is a densely wooded
park. In a minute the machine reaches
it. 1t plunges on. Trees are crunched
as If they were weeds. You look back
In the wake Of the machine. 1t is not
scratched. An enemy village, occupied
by enemy soldiers, lies in front. The
machine speeds on it; reaches them.
Houses are battered down as If they
were made of paper. Wherever the
weights that dangle down in front
strike, wherever the wheels move there
is rending and a crushing. And so
everything is leveled before the war
machine"

Hioher Education.

Mrs. Brown called at the home Of

requests that the names of all whose

sent to headquarters, where they will
be kept with those who do sign them.

SHERIFF LEAVES TO

As soon as he could get ready,

started for Molino last night getting

tanned in the above.
At 2 o'clock this morning, Deputy
Sheriffs Hartsfield and Bayless re-
turned to the city, bringing a negro
named Oliver James, who is charged
with shooting the marshall. 1t seems
that James was on the road armed
with a shotgun, and that when the
marshal walked in his direction when
the officer heard shot in the woods
the negro, without further ado, shot
at him, the charge making a flesh
wound, which is not regarded as Sc
rious. The negro was placed in the
county Jail.
