TWO ASSAULTS
Are REPORTED
White Woman Assaulted and
Nell Held Up by Unidentified
White Man Last Night.

An attempt to criminally assault a
white woman, living in West Pensa-
cola, was frustrated last night about
10 o'clock, when the woman chewed
the fingers of the man when he placed
his hand over her mouth to keep her
from screaming.
As the woman was returning to her
home after being out on mission
about 10 o'clock, she was accosted by
a man wearing black mask over the
lower part of his face. The man
placed a pistol to her forehead and
told her he would fire if she screamed
He later placed one hand over her
mouth and as he did so she began
chewing his fingers, causing him to
leave her and run. She was un-
harmed other than a severe fright.
About an hour later Charles Nell
was returning to his home and when
he was about block from the place
a man wearing similar mask halted
him at the point of a pistol and de-
manded his money. Nell was warned
not to make any noise, but he told the
hoIdup to go to another country and
began to run. The hold-up did not
follow. Mr. Nell did not lose any
money.
Descriptions given officers when
they responded to the call were SINH
lar by both parties. The man was
tall, slightly oop-shouldered and
was wearing a black mask a dark
suit of clothes and a dark felt hat.

CILICIA DISTRICT
RESEMBLES BELGIUM
Constant Fighting Has Caused De
struetion Like that in France.

NEW YORK, Jan. %. Constant
fighting between the French forces Of
occupation and Turkish Nationalists
has transformed the Cilicia district OF
Asia Minor into an area of ruin and
desolation resembling the devastated
sections of northern France. declares
Miss Elizabeth Webb. an American
missionary and worker for the Near
East relief.
In a letter TO the relief organization
Miss Webb tells OF trip from Aldana,
recently delivered from siege OF IA
weeks. TO the town OF Deurt Vol, about
so miles distant on the Mediterranean
Sea. The trip was made on a French
armored train.
eThe Adana station itself was sug-
gestlve OF the general situation, with
its barricades OF sand bags" She wrote
"As we moved down the track we saw
bent steel rails lying BY the side OF
the new oues that had Just been laid
Bridges that we passed over We're
newly repaired and village stations
along the route were demolished. The
ruins were surrounded by barbed wire
acknowledgements and broken telegraph
poles. fest ned with tangled wire,
witness 70 the events of the past few
months. No human beings were in
sight but the barbed wire entangle-
ments were hung with tin cans. which
IN the weeks OF fighting that preceded
my visit had been put up by the de-
tenders TO prevent surprise attack
for one touch on the wire would set
tho whole row OF cans jingling.
I'm the four hours between Adana
and Toprak Kale we saw only one hu-
man being outside the vicinity OF
these two places. This one exception
was Turk riding a forlorn looking
horse, with a white rag hanging from
q pole stuck upright in his pack sad
die. There were scores OF threshing
floors where the cut wheat had been
allowed to rot in the sun and rain.
THE difficulties IN Deurt Vol and
Euzerli have greatly Increased by the
addition Of about 1000 Armenian refu-
gees TO the population. Most of the
refugees abandoned rich crops and
houses that had been newly repaired
with aid from the Near East relief.
we found them in pitiful condition.
Houses OF two and three rooms were
shelterlng four or five families,
"All empty houses, porches, store
houses and every inch of available
space was filled with them. Some were
sleeping on the bare ground with no
covering.

HOW DOCTORS
TREAT COLDS
AND THE FLU
First Step in Treatment is
Brisk Purgative With Gallo
tabs, the Purified and Refined
Caiomei Tablets That Are
Nausealess, Safe and Sure.
Pensacola Testimony

Doctors have found by experience
that no medicine for colds and influ-
enza can be depended upon for full eff
feetiveness until the liver is made thor
oughly active. That is why the first
step In the treatment is the new, nau-
sealess caion.eI tablet called Calotabs.
whtch are free from the sickening and
weakening effects of the. old style oalo-
mel Doctors also point out the fact
that an active liver may go a long way
towards preventing influenza and is
one of the most important factors in
enabling the patient to successfully
Withstand an attack and ward off
pneumonia.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time, with swallow Of water-that's
all. No salts, no nausea nor the
slightest interference with your eat
ing, pleasure or work. Next morn
ing your cold has vanished, your liver
is active. your system is purified, and
YOU are feeling fine, with a hearty
appetite for breakfast. Druggists sell
Calotabs only in original sealed pack
ages, price thirty-five cents. Youi
money will be eheerfully refunded il

RAILROADS WANT
OLD SYSTEM BACK
Railroad Labor Board Is Asked to
Grant Return Of Piece Work
System by Roads.
(By Associated Press)

CHICAGO, Jan. 24.-The railroad
labor board today pored over a mass
of statistics presented by eastern
roads as part of the evidence sup
porting the railroads plea for abro-
cation of the national agreement.
Shop employees from foundry work
ers to car repairers were declared to
have decreased their efficiency under
the hourly wage system as compared
with the piece work system and col
umn after column of figures confront
ed the board in the railroads attempt
to prove their point
Norfolk & Western figures, pre-
scented by j. NJ. Thomas, inspector,
covered the first six months of 1917
and of 1919. The 1917 compilations
were under the piece-work system.
The 1919 data, under the hourly sys-
tenn, showed a decrease of 40 per
cent in the number of cars repaired
per man in the Norfolk & Western
Roanoke shop.
The whole argument is intended to
