BOLSHEvIST ARMY
MASSACRES MORE
THAN 1000 people
Victims Heads Crushed With
Hammers and Their Bodies
Mutilated.

Constantinople, via London, Sept
4.-More than / 900 persons were eX-
ecuted by the bolsheviki before they
evacuated Yekaterinoslay in Southern
Russia, according to a dispatch re-
ceived here giving an account Of the
massacres by a physician who was
the personal medical expert present
at the opening Of the pits into which
the bodies of these victims had been
thrown after their execution. This
physician, a DR.. Robin, declares the
victims heads had been crushed with
hammers and their bodies badly mu-
tilated. Many Of them, he says, were
found with broken legs and ribs,
caused by blows with sledge ham
mers, specimens of which were found
in the vicinity.
The physician tells of the case of
one officer who missed being struck
by the firing squads bullets and SIM
ulating death, escaped the bolsheviki,
who came along bayonetting the
wounded.
The bolsheviki organizations in the
city have been headed by workman
named Valiavka and various Chinese,
the report adds and the principal
posts of the soviet administration un-
der them were in the hands of young
men and women. Wholesale pillag-
ing is declared to have occurred in
the town before it's evacuation.
The evacuation of Yekaterinoslav
by the bolsheviki apparently occurred
more than two months ago. A Rus
sian wireless dispatch from Moscow
July l, which recounted the capture
by the Cossacks of Kharkov, an
nounced also that the bolsheviki had
lost Yekaterinoslav, LIS miles south
west of Kharkov.

MISS KILBY,s WEDDING

The following interesting comments on the approaching marriage of Miss Anne Kilby, daughter of Gov. and Mrs, Kilby, and Lieut.. Davil Brune. which will be an event of June, by Polly Peachtree, in the Atlanta American:
 And after getting said bum jokes out of my system, I do recall details a few scant details-of another inter- esting wedding of June. It's not an At lanta wedding, but how can I help that there must be weddings to talk about and Atlanta simply will not produce
 T refer to the approaching nuptials of Anne Kilby, one of our recent opera guests Anne's engagement to Lieut. David Brune of Baltimore was an nounced just before her daddy was elected governor of Alabama. Of course Anne had to have little taste of life off the wedding till June. She has de- cided to have the ceremony performed not in Montgomery at the governors S mansion, as you would suppose-but al the Kilby home in Anniston.
 Anne says she had intended having rather a small welding, but since com ing to Atlanta and having so many of her friends express an interest in the event, she has decided to have a big wedding and ask them all to it. Which is certainly very kind of her am sure.
 Perhaps Anne will finally wind up by having as large a wedding did Dorothy Arkwright. who in fullness of her heart invited all Atlanta be- cause she realized that weddings were scarce nowadays and everybody would wish to be among those present"

Operated on for Appendici-
 tis and Other Troubles
 Three Years Ago, and Had
 Never Felt the Same Since Suffered From Knife Pains
Also Bothered by Constipa- tion, Kidney, Liver and Stomach Disorders, Which She Declares Dreco Has Overcome Entirely

Three years ago I was operated on for appendicitis and other troubles and lay in hospital for five weeks, stated Mrs. L. T. Bowen of 402 Eugene street. Montgomery. Ala.
 T have suffered agony from pains which the doctors call knife pains from the operation, but rheumatism has alSo caused me much suffering, along with constipation and other trouble. Had to take medicine every night to keep my bowels moving and indigestion became so bad I was afraid to eat or I knew what I would suffer afterwards
 Cutting down on my eating made me lose strength, so was getting in mighty bad shape when I started taking Dreco, the new root and herb remedy. It all most seems too good to be true, the way this medicine has helped me. I very sell dorn have pain anywhere now, and l believe that Dreco has so improved my general health that my knife pains are about gone. I'm eating anything I wans
 these days and nothing seems to dis agree with me. The constipation is en- tirely gone, and the bowel actions are free and easy. T think my case is almost as remark able as my friend. Mrs. Armstrong's, which seemed almost a miracle, for sffe is now better than in the past 15 years When reliable people make statements and sign them to be published in the papers like the above there is no won der that Dreco is so popular and that so many people are daily buying this great herbal remedy.
