Inez White Gold, wife of John d.
Gold, after an illness of some weeks
which became acute the latter part
of last week, died this afternoon at
three o'clock in the MoOre-Herring
Hospital of this city. All of the i'm
mediate family were with her at the
last and number of relatives who
had been able to reach Wilson to
day after being notified of Mrs
Colds critical illness. Her brother
Mr.. B. V. White, of Loudoun coun
ty, Virginia, was the only one OF
brothers able to reach her bedside
before she breathed her last.
Mrs. Gold was the daughter Of
Col. E. V. White, Loudoun county
Virginia, one of the Virginia plant
ers who distinguished themselves a
fighting during the Civil War. He
was a colonel of cavalry.
Mrs. Gold was married to John d
Gold at the home of her parents OF

ret and Inez Gold; three brothers

NO MORE TOBACCO
SALES THIS WEEK

AS Thursday of this week is regis
tration day and many of those con-
nected with the market have to re-
turn to their homes to register there
will be no more tobacco sales this
week.
This action on the part of the To-
bacco Board of Trade was made
more imperative by the fact that
the factories are all short of help
find themselves unable to handle
the tobacco as fast as 1t is being
sold. The only way the present
high prices of tobacco can be main
tained is to market the crop only
as fast as the factories can handle
it.
Therefore closing the market for
the rest of this week gives the facto-
ries time to catch up and be in
shape to handle the weed to better
advantage when the market opens
next week.

STOCKS

New York, Sept. 1O.-Selling of
stocks was actively resumed at the
opening of today's trading, in
creased credit restrictions provoking
further liquidation and pressure on
individual offerings ranging from
100 to $500 shares. United States
Steel reacted a point to 1O8 IL.
Declines of one to two points mark
ed the early course of related Indus
trials, Equipments and Specialties.
Losses among Standard Rails also
approximated a point, some of these
being retrieved before the end OF the

STRENGTH"

delivered a counter attack yesterday
against the positions won by the
British to the west Of Gouzeaucourt
fronting the Hindenburg line south

Haig announced in his official state
ment today that the enemy assault

British Advance Over 4-mile
Front, Capturing All Ger
man High Grounds

London, Sept. 19.--The British in
an advance over a mile front be-
tween the Havincourt wood and Pei
iere have captured all the Germans
on the high ground between these
two points and won their old trench
positions overlooking Gouzeaucourt,
according to the official communica-
tion from Field Marshal Haig to-
night. The Gouzeaucourt wood also
is in British hands.
English and New Zealand
troops performed the task and dur
ing the fighting repulsed heavy Ger
man counter-attacks.
The text of the statement follows
This morning advanced detach-
ments OF English and New Zealand
ers attacked and carried the German
positions on the high ground be-
tween Peiziere and the Havincourt
wood. After sharp fighting in the
course of which heavy counter-at-
tacks were repulsed with losses, we
gained the old British trench line on
the ridge overlooking Gouzeaucourt
and captured Gauxeaucourt wood.
"On the left of our attack, other
English troops successfully advanc-
ed our line in the easern portion OF
the Havincourt wood. We captured
number Of prisoners in these oper-
tions.
"On the remainder of the British
front there was fighting on certain
sectors. Hostile attacks against
posts we recently established west OF
La Basse were repulsed.
Rain fell heavily Sunday night
and again today. The weather
continues stormy.

Further indications of the grow

the German army have been receiv
ed. A number of Germans recently
captured were formerly in Russian
captivity. They say they had beer
told they would be used on the line
of communication but instead, they
were put through the field recruit
department and placed as infantry
in the trenches.
Many Germans are becoming in
creasingly worried over the pros

selves but for their families, who ii
many cases, according to the Ger
mans who were captured, are neal

Nearly all the German soldiers 60
ing home on leave are taking with
them to their families whatever food
they can lay their hands on at the
front and in as large quantities al
possible. Many captured letters tc
the Germans at the front mourn the
lack of food and warm clothing.

GET new KIDNEYS!

The kidneys are the most over
worked organs of the human body,
and when they fail in their work OF
filtering out and throwing off the
poisons developed in the system,
things begin to happen.
One OF the first warnings is pain
or stiffness in the lower part of the
back: highly colored urine loss or
appetite: indigestion; irritation, or
even stone in the bladder These
symptoms indicate a condition that
may lead up to that dreaded and
fatal malady, Bright's disease. for
which there is said to be no cure
You can almost certainly find
Immediate relief in GOLD MEDAL
Harlem Oil Capsules. For more
than 200 years this famous prepar-
alton has been an unfailing remedy
for all kidney, bladder and urinary
troubles. Get 1t at any drug store,
and il it does not give you almost
immediate relief. your money Will
be refunded. Be sure you get the
GOLD MEDAL brand. None other
genuine. In boxes, three sizes.

"Tbe name Spring Fever" said
a well known physician in CONVEX
sation the other day, lis a misnom-
er. and is largely figure Oh
speech used to describe the pecu-
liar lassitude. that so many people
complain of at the expiration OF
our winter months. 1t is phy-
sioIogical condition well known TO

phorous both of which are abso-

ance OF bodily vigor.
"Of course" he continued. the
excessive meat eating, the loss OF
green vegetables and of oxygen, OF
which there is so little IN the av-
erage heated house, all play their
mart The result is that nature IS
calling for an increased output OF
the vital forces during the WINTER
months. and this demand means
more PHOSPHORUS and IRON. FOR
if is these two potent remedleS
combined. which are natures arm

With the advent of warm weather
