Trouble in the South.

Washington, Aug. 3.-Reports of the
threatened armed resistance to the army
draft in isolated points of Georgia and
Western North Carolina, are being in
vestigated by the department of jus
tiee.
Mountaineers and farmers in these
regions are reported to have supplied
themselves with new Winchester rifles
and ammunition to fight the draft.
Special investigators have been as
signed to make careful inquiry and
stern measures will be taken to repress
any rebellion.
The reports were submitted by inter
national revenue agents and immediate
ly transmitted to the justice department.
They state that speakers are touring
mountain and rural sections, declaring
the draft law unconstitutional and adj
vising farmers and mountaineers to re-
sist it.
A new drastic ruling to cover "mar-
riage slackers" is being prepared by
the government. After conference
with Secretary Baker, Provost Marshal
General Crowder is drafting a message
to all state governors on how to meet
exemption claims following hastily con
tracted marriages.
When the boards get through with
these claims, there will be a smaller
per centage of exemptions than have
appeared likely in the first reports,
Crowder said today.

NAN WHO SUICIDED
found TO BE WOMAN
Samuel Ackerman" Posed
Successfully As Man, and
Even Married

Toledo, Ohio, Aug. s.-PoIice were
unfolding today the mystery of Sam
uel Ackerman Ia woman who for a
dozen years posed as a man, who mar
ried' another woman and who finally
ended the deceit bv suicide in the Mau-
NEE river here.
They proceeded on the theory that
Ackerman' may have ended her life
fearing exposure through the physical
examination of an army BOARD. She was
|29 years of age.
"Ackerman had not registered for
army service, but the theory was she
feared apprehension as Stacker.
Because the woman for many years
had been known as "Samuel Acker-
man" the optician, police have been
unable to learn her real name.
While living in New YORK, soon af-
ter coming from Russia, "Samuel Ack-
erman' married New York girl He
brought her here, supporting her as an
optician. But she obtained a divorce
here over two years ago and married
She is now Mrs Sarah Wise and is the
mother of year old baby.
" "Ackerman 's'' personal effects are
entirely those of a man, including
razor, which appeared unused.
The body, tied down by an eight
pound weight, finally came to the sur
face yesterday Only when the body
was examined at the morgue was it
found to be that of woman.

With the American Expeditionary
Army, Aug. 3.--Trench helmets for
Pershing q Samnlies arrived today
amid General rejoicing. In their train
ing for the trenches, the Sammies have
been aching for the exact equipment

Two accidents of minor nature added
excitement to the camp today. One
regimental pitcher let fly a wild pitch
in one exciting baseball game, the ball
striking down an American interpreter
and a French lieutenant.
The second might have been of a
more serious nature Sammies practie-
ing with live grenades threw one too
close 10 box of the same sort of
trench weapons and the box exploded.
No one was injured.

NEW WAY TO REMOVE
HAIRS CREATES SENSATION
(Actually Takes out the Roots)

X X X X x X x X X X X X X X X
What beauty specialists regard as
one of the most important discoveries
in recent years is the phelactine meth
cd of removing superfluous hair. Its
great advantage, of course, lies in the
fact that it actually removes the hair
roots. 1t does this easily, instantly,
harmlessly. Sufferers from the afflie-
ton named need no longer despair. The
actual hair roots come out before your
very eyes, leaving the skin as smooth
and hairless as babe s.
Because it offers such complete re-
lief, stick of phelactine is the most
inexpensive thing a woman can buy for
the removal of hairy growths. For the
same reason druggists do not hesitate
to sell it under a money-back guarantee
You can use it with entire safety; it Is
so harmless one could even cat it with
out any i'll effect.

against an engulfing sea of mud as
against the enemy, British troops were
still consolidating their gains by loca,
attacks today. The weather was slightly
improved but massed infantry actions
were practically out of the question.
The artillery therefore was invoked to
continue the pounding of the German
line.
Early today further counter attacks
by German picked forces were thrown
back at several points along the line
where high ground permitted some
freedom from the unending mud of the
Flanders fields.
With last nights attacks in the
Ypres- -Roulers sector the Germans have
launched at least five assaults to at
tempt re-capture of this ground.
