JACKSONVILLE WANTS MILITARY posT

Jacksonville is out for a permanent military
camp and is urging that Camp Johnston be re-
tanned Here are some OF the reasons the jack
sonville Metropolis puts forward for the retention
of the camp established at Jacksonville during the
world war:
There is a strong possibility sooner or later
Of the United States having trouble with Mex
leo. 1t is the part of wisdom then to be pre-
pared for this emergency. Jacksonville owing
a convenient place as a base in OF such
trouble, should be kept up by the government.
We are glad to see that the war department has
recently decided to make the southeas army
headquarters at Charleston active Or
ganizaton, giving the commanding general
more men and more authority. 1t would be a
great blunder to demolish this wonderful quar-
terInasters' camp at Black Point which has
more advantages possibly than any other
southern camp It is pity, too that 1t has not
been used more by the government. We believe
that the only reason that it has not been made
Of the favorite posts in the country is be-
cause its advantages are not known to the mill
tary authorities who have this matter of camps
in charge Think of what ideal place IL
would be for convalescent soldiers who are now
confined to their barracks in other northern
camps because of the cold weather. The Me-
tropolis hopes that the war department will
keep Camp Johnston as a going concern It is
valuable asset to the military of the
u. S. and should be kept on permanent footing.

NEGRO RESISTS
DEPUTY ARREST

Deputy Sheriff Bailey narrowly es-
capped probable death late Saturday
night when a Derringer pistol in the
hands of negro missed fire twice as
Bailey attempted to arrest him. AS
result OF the affair Sam Patterson
negro, is facing charges of attempt to
murder and of carrying concealed
weapons.
Patterson, after leaving his work
Saturday night, was halted by Deputy
Sheriff Bailey, but instead of hating
the negro started to back away from
the deputy. He was warned by the
deputy that it was an officer calling
him to halt and also by a negro who
was with Patterson, the latter telling
Patterson that 1t was a deputy sheriff
whom he knew and that he had better
halt.
When Deputy Bailey advanced to-
ward the retreating negro, the latter
pulled a Derringer pistol from his
pocket, levelled it at Bailey's stomach
and pulled the trigger. The cartridge
would not fire and the negro snapped
the trigger again, the gun not firing
again. Bailey gave the negro a rap
across the head with a stick and then
carried him TO the county Jail.
An examination of the pistol shows
that a cartridge had been hit by the
hammer in two places, either dent be-
ing deep enough to cause a cartridge to
fire, and the only thing that probably
saved the deputy's life was the de-
fective cartridge.
The negro was released on $500 bond
early yesterday morning.

JAPANESE EXPECT
WITHDRAW SHIP

Picking. Jan. S-OfficiaIk announce
ment was made at the Japanese lega-
ton here today THAT the Japanese
warship stationed at Fushow would be
withdrawn consequent to the restora-
ton of order at that port
As the Chinese considered the Jap
anese aEgressors at Fuchow, the dis
patch OF Japanese warship TO that
port aroused Chinese public opinion
and led to an intensification OF the
aiti-Ja panese boycott. Belief is ex-
pressed here that Japan's withdrawal
of the warship proves the effective
ness OF the boycott and also demon
strates Japan's desire to improve rela-
tions between the two countries.

We Want IL Over Here

1t is stated that this road is seeking a Gulf ter
minus. If such be the case. and it is highly prob
able, why not make an effort to get it to to
st. Andrews Bay the best harbor the Gulf of
Mexico, nearer the Panama canal than any other
north Gulf shore harbor, and much the
present lines of the Central of Georgia than any
other point on the Gulf shore.
What the bay country needs just is first
class transportation service both by rail and water
and the latter would follow the Inauguration of
the former. There is lack of terminal locations
of the very choicest kind here on St. Andrews bay,
which could be acquired for that purpose by road
coming here, and the mileage saved through coming
to the nearest point the Gulf to their lines is
item that would appeal strongly to those putting
up he money to build such a line
1t is but a short distance north from here to
connection with the Central Of Georgia, and the
topography of the country is such that railway
building would be very inexpensive. By all means
let an attempt be made to locate the terminus of
this road on st. Andrews bay.-St Andrews Bay

Don't Pamper
 Your Stomach
Fear of Dyspepsia Robs the Entire System of Necessary Nutriment. Eat a Diversified Meal and With Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab-
 lets You Will Avoid the Dis
 tress of Indigestion.

Just because the stomach sours with gassiness, heartburn, water brash and such distresses after eating. is not good reason for depriving the system of nourishment.
 Instead of indigestible and innutri- tious bran and skim milk, try the bet ter plan of eating what you like and follow your meals with Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets. They digest food, they assist the stomach to secrete juices that keep the stomach sweet, active and with the alkaline effect, just as when the stomach is in perfect health. Nor is it necessary to discriminate. You may eat freely of onions, sausage, mince pie and baked beans or other dishes, such as the average dyspeptic views with horror, and suffer no dis tress if you follow with Stuarts Dys- pepsia Tablets. There is thus no need to fear any kind of food at any time or place, for with these tablets you may prevent those dIstresses that for merly made you pamper your stomach as if it were tender infant. You can get Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets in any drug store at 50 cents a box.

Perturbation of Richard Harding Davis Story Is
 Wonderful PhOtOplay

soldiers of Fortune" wonderful photoplay of Richard Harding Davis big story. will be the extraordinary attrac- ton at the Rialto theatre next week, be- ginning Monday This production is now sweeping the country with wave or popularity hardly exceeded by any other picture production. This mammoth DIG ture is considered one of the screen bls- gest offerings and the announcement that it is coming to Birmingham will no doubt be welcome news to the thousands of theatregoers in this city.
 Soldiers of Fortune" through its many thrilling episodes and abundance of ac- tion lends itself admirably to photoplay interpretation It was Augustus Thomas who first produced this story for the stage at Charles Frohmans Savoy Thea tre, New York, March IT, 1902, with Rob ert Edeson in the star role. The suc- cess experienced by the dramatized ver- sion was equal to that of the book. In offering the story as a film play. Tne producer has been able to present It Tn more vivid colors and with much broad strokes than the limitations of the spoken drama would permit, and has even added to the delight or lhe taie by bringing it up to the present time. But he appears to have adhered to the main story so as to hold all of the orig inal romantic charm with which 1t abounds.
 Care was exercised in the selection of the cast Norman Kerry who has been prominent in the support of Mary Pick ford, is seen as Clay; Melbourne McDow- ell has part of the Wall Street fi- nancier; Pauline Stark. is Hope Lang ham; Alice Langham, is played by Anna 0. Nilsson. The other parts are equally we'll cast.
