BUSH CAMPBELL ESCAPES
FROM THE PENITENTIARY

Nashville, Tenn, June 11.-At a
late hour yesterday afternoon the thre
conyicts who escaped from the State
penitentiary, Pet Ship, Bush Camp
bell and Henry Roberts, were still at
large. At 4:3$ O'Clock they were seen
near Parsons store, eight miles from
the city. They were making their
way across a wheat field after aban-
kdoning a buggy that they had taken
from a farmer whom they shot and
slightly wounded. Some thirty men,
eight of them on the immediate trail
of the conVicts, are securing the Yicin
ity for them. A reward of 800 has
been offered for the apprehension of
each.
Acting Chief of Police K. W. Smith
and a party of officers are assisting
the posse in the pursuit of the fugi-
tives. They are considered the most
desperate characters of the peniten-
tiary. That thy will not allow them
selves to be captured is generally
thought.
This trio escaped from the prison
this morning ind this afternoon left
trail of terror as they proceeded
Each convict has a pistol. The men
escaped from the prison yard by jump
ing on the tender of an engine steam
ing up to leave and covering the en-
gineer with a revolver forced him to
start the engine. A mile out they
abandoned the engine and the alarm
was given by the engineer.
Two hours later reports came in
that they had stolen an automobile,
robbing its occupants of $40. They
were forced to abandon this when
motor policeman gave chase. They
ran across a field and outdistanced
the officer. A little later they shot
farmer who resisted the taking of
his buggy.

SOLDIER BOYS IN TOWN

Five hundred Missouri soldiers stop
ped off for about two hours Friday
on their way from training camp at
Iowa State College to camp in South
Carolina. They are all college boys
and were a fine bunch of young sold
iers. Though their coming was UNI

our privilege to entertain the Red
Cross assisted by many of our citt-
xens furnished them refreshments of
ice cream, lemonade, coffee sandwich

The boys expressed themselves as be
ing highly pleased with their treat
ment.
Johnson City has been deprived of
privilege of doing for the boys in this
way, as the trains are scheduled to
go through the city with only a few
minutes stop. 1t has been genuine
pleasure for our people to respond at
this time.

Soldiers Home Notes
SHERWOOD PENSION
LAW AMENDMENT

Washington, June 10.-The act of
May IL, 1912, provides the rate of $50
per month for soldiers and sailors of
any age who served ninety days and
less than six months during the Civil
War and were honorably discharged,
and who are now receiving a lower
rate. Those who are seventy-two
years of age, or over, and who served
one year, $35 per month; one and one
half years, $3S per month; and two
years, or over, $40 per month. These
increases will be granted automati-
cally, and without application of any
kind to the Pension Bureau, to all
soldiers and sailors now pensioned
under the act of May IL, 1912, and
who have attained the required age
and served the necessary length of
time.
Soldiers and sailors who served
during the Civil War, and are pen
stoned at lower rates under some
other law, but who are entitled to
pension under the act of May II, 1912
will be required to file an application
under that act in order to receive the
benefits of the new law.
The Pension Bureau will make
these allowances with all the dispatch
possible under existing conditions. A
special force for the adjustment of
cases within the provisions of the new
law has been organized, which will
handle these cases exclusively. 1t
should be borne in mind by those
concerned that there are now nearly
268, 900 pensioners under the act of
May IL, 1912, and all are urged to
exercise patience and consideration,
While every effort will be made to
hasten this work, there will be no
avoidable interference with the pro-
gress of claims now on file or here
after filed under other laws. A spe-
cial effort will be made not to in
terfere with the adjudication of wild
ows' claims.
1t will be wholly impracticable to
make any payments at the increased
rate on July 4, 1918; but it is hoped
that payments due August 4, 1918,
may be made at the rate provided by
the new law. 1t will not be necessary
to write the Bureau about these in
creases. Letters of inquiry will SIM
ply delay the work of making al
lowances.
No attorneys fees will be allowed
or paid for services in securing in
crease of pension under the act of
June 10, 1918.

TON GODDARD KILLED
AT THE FRONT

Maryville, Tenn, June 10.-When
the word passed from one to another
| Saturday afternoon that a message
came over the wires from the war de-
partment that Thomas Warner God
dard was killed in action June 1, sad
ness and deep regret took possession
of every countenance as the word was
rapidly transmitted to the throngs on
the streets of Maryville.
Tom" as he was familiarly known
was fovorite of every one who knew
him, and was one of earth's noblest
young men in the truest meaning of
the term And to put it as one man
remarked, che was worth the kaiser
and his whole dominion and all that
was in it," He is the first Blount
county boy to fall in action "over
there
He is the son OF James A. God
dard and was twenty-four years of
dard, the famous singer, and has sew
eral other brothers and sisters who
will have the deepest sympathy of the
entire population of this city, where
the young man was born and reared.
He volunteered and went to Camp Sc
vier, but was sent to an officers
training camp and was made first lieu
tenant and was sent to France about
the first of the year.
Only this week his father received
letter from him telling him that he
was expecting to be called into action
any time and he could not be called
to soon to suit him.
But tom is no more, and he gave
his vigorous young life in defense of
the cause of right.
He spent a year and half at West
Point and afterward graduated at
Maryville College, and then taught at
Wheat, Roane county, for two years
before volunteering in the service of
his country. He was selected from
class of five at Camp Greene to go
to France, landing "over there" some
time in March, when he was put in
command of a machine gun company
of regulars.

As Many Johnson City People Know
Too Well

When the kidneys are weak or dis
ordering, they fall behind in filtering
the blood of poisons. AS these pois-
ons attack the nerves, the result is
felt in spells of vertigo, just as drum
kenness will make a man dizzy from
the poisoning of alcohol Dizziness
headache, backache and irregularity
of the kidney secretions are all signs
of weak or disordered kidneys and
should not be neglected. Use Doan's
Kidney Pills, the home-endorsed kid
ney remedy. Read this Johnson City
residents statement:
Mrs. G. D. Webster, 702 W. Watau-
ga Avenue, says: "My kidneys were
