MADE OF WOOD

Police described the internal machine as being composed of a piece of wood about six inches long, three inches wide and probably an inch thick. A hole had been made in the wood and the acid container which they believed was glass, was placed in this It was so arranged, they said. that untying the wrapper loosened a coil spring. which allowed the larger quantity of acid to come in contact with some other acid and the explosion followed. The piece of wood and pieces of the wrapper were found The wood was burned black in places. The small metal slugs appeared to have been wrapped around the wood.
 Attention was called to the fact that an internal machine received yesterday through the mails at the office of Mayor Ole Hanson in Seattle, Wash. also came from New York and bore the return address of Novelty department, Ginbel Bros, New York City"
 Police were inclined to connect the two attempts to destroy life and said that the wrappers of a New York firm were used to avert any possible suspi- cion before opening the packages. The bomb sent to Seattle did not explode.

The senator could assign no par ticular cause for she attempt on his life. The package bearing the type written address, Senator Thomas w. Hardwick, Sandcrsville, Ga.,' was marked Sample" and had a wrapper bearing a return address of "Gimbel Bros, S2 Broadway, New York" It was the word sample" that caused Mrs Hardwick to thinS it was some merchandise and to have it opened in her husbands absence.
 After leaving the United States Sen ate Mir. Hardwick came to Atlanta and engaged in law practice On leaving his home at Sandersville he did not know what his office address would be, SC gave the postmaster the number of the apartment he had taken here. For that reason the package was not sent to his office, but to his home.

Sword peadlier Than Gun.

In spite of the long casualty lists Of
the present war, fought with all the
flendish contrivances of modern
science, the destruction of life Is not
SO great in proportion to earlier wars
when soldiers fought hand-to-hand.
The most deadly of all weapons was
the Roman short sword. Caesar re-
ported that at the battle he fought
near Namur, his soldiers slew 10000
of the Nervii. There were no wound
ed when the weapon was the short
sword. AS men began to fight at long
er range, the death lists grew shorter.
1t is an axiom Of modern war that it
costs marksman his own weight in
lead to kill one of the enemy.-Peo-

The unseating Of Representative
Weber of Sargent county and the
declaration that Frank Riba is the

the vacancy for that district was the
result of an election contest decided
by the house after extensive and BIT

based upon the fact that the election
Judges at Forman closed and locked
the polling place during the evening
of election day while counting the
votes, thus excluding oil witnesses
and destroying, it is alleged, all
