relieved the backache and the pains
that had annoyed me and cleared up
the kidney secretions." (Statement

ONE DEsERTER, ONE STACKER.
Federal Officer Ropcd in a Couple In
the Battle Creek Section.

Last Friday afternoon the U. s.
deputy marshal was In the Battle
Creek section on official business.
While there he and his companions
noticed some parties who made ra-
ther suspicious movements--so much
so that the officers placed them under
arrest. On being searcehd they we're
found to be in possession of two good
Colts reyOlyers and ammunition suf-
ficient for considerable hunting en-
pedition, whatever the nature OF their
game might be. They were also sup
piled with plenty of good, warm
clothes-two grips full. Bnt-and
thereby hangs tale-they did not
have registration cards, and could
not satisfactorily explain their move
ments for the past few weeks. They
were brought to Walhalla and tried.
before the U. S. Commissioner on
the charge of failing to register for
military service in the United States
army, and upon the evidence pre-
sented they were held for their ap-
pearance at Greenyille Court.
Shortly after the hearing before
the Commissioner was concluded, the
,
ceived message from the Local
Board Of Stephens county, Georgia,
saying that H. T. Brown was a de-
serter, and that ]. C. Brown was a
Stacker, and If seen to arrest them.
These were the men who had just
been remanded to jail to await fur
| ther trial. Upon being notified to
! that effect the sheriff of Stephn:
county came to Walhalla at once and
carried II. T. Brown back with him
to be court-martialcd upon the charge
Of desertion. J. G. Brown remained
, In jail until Monday morning, when
his father came over from Easta-
nolle, Ca, and made bond for his
appearance before the District Court
upon the charge Of failing to regis
ter.
So 1t seems that although the war
may be over, punishment for those
who tried to dodge has not yet been

mer Of the county. He was 26 years
of age, the eldest son Of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. p. Mason, the father serving Oco-
nee in the House of Representatives
the past session, and he was we'll and
favorably known.
In early life Mr.. Mason united with
the Cross Roads Baptist church, and
his honest dealings, natural courtesy
and sunny disposition won for him
many friends. Anxious to respond to
his country's call, though disabled
from a weakness Of the heart, he
was happy, OH being given limited
service In the thought Of doing what
he could, though debarred by his
physical condition from participat-
ing in active service. And when the
final summons came he answered,
"All is WE'LL" and gave up his young
life as heroically as the soldier on the
battle front.
Surviving are his parents, grand
parents. one sister, Miss Winnie and
two brothers, Wyatt and St. John,
besides numerous other relatives, to
whom much sympathy is extended.

ENTHUSIASM GROWS AS
CAMPAIGN NEARS CLOSE
Masses Rallying to Parker, Is Report
from All Over County.

Rallying its forces more efficiently
and with greater strength than eve
before in it's history behind the candi-
dacy of Edwin A. Parker for County
Clerk, the Republican Organization
throughout Atlantic County has paved
the way during the past week for an
overwhelming victory at the polls on
primary day, next Tuesday. Veteran
leaders in charge of the campaign de-
cided some time ago that they would
reserve their real effort until the clos
ing week. The overflow a~ttendances
at a series of meetings which began
Monday and have been continued
nightly at various points throughout
the county and in every ward of At
lantic City, together with the tremen'
dous enthusiasm that has developed
among white and colored voters, fur
nish the best possible proof that the
conduct of the campaign has been
placed in master hands.
At these meetings the plea of sym.
pathy advanced in behalf of Commo-
dore Kuehnle's candidacy has been
shattered, various speakers, well &C
quainted with the status of Kuehnle's
financial affairs, proving that when an
adjustment has been made he will be
in possession of a snug fortune esti'
mated at $780, 600. There has also
been disclosed the fact that the Com
modore had been offered the post OF
County Collector, which would have
been his without a contest or without
undergoing any expense. His refusal
the leaders assert, goes to prove that
the post which he now seeks is de
signed by him to be but a stepping
stone to the leadership from which he
was dethroned several years ago..
Representatives from evenly section
of the County will be in attendance al
a meeting of the County Republican
Executive Committee in the Hotel
Malatesta, Atlantic City, today, (Sat
urday), when the finishing touches
will be placed upon a campaign which
has become noted for it's brevity anC
decided forcefulness.
