A little more than four years ago
strange character calling himself
Noah II appeared in several OF the
small villages on the south shore of
the Bay OF San Francisco, in Califor-
MIA. and announced that the earth was
again to be destroyed by great food
and that he had been sent to warn the
inhabitants and to build an ark for the
safety of such as should be saved. To
that end he constructed a rude dwell
ing of such material as he could find
along the beach and adjoining marsh
les, for his comfort and convenience,
and then began the building OF the
ark from lumber obtained by wreck
ing several old frame houses that gen
erous people gave or sold him Tor a
small sum.

Brooch Bellhop Scorned
Proves to Be Worth $4,000
Gift of President Polk to His Wife
Found in Foyer of Hotel.

ATLANTIC CITY.-A be1lhop at
the Ambassador Hotel found brooch
in the foyer last night. 1t was an old
fashioned ornament, set with large
stones, whose fiat and almost luster-
less surfaces aroused no enthusiasm in
the discoverer. Cheap stuff" he re-
marked and turned the brooch in al
the desk.
Within a few hours Mrs. George w.
Fall, of Nashville, Tenn, the adopted
daughter of the widow of President
James K. Polk, telephoned to the no
tel. She had been there to dinner with
friend, she said, and had lost a
brooch. Its intrinsic value was about
S6,000 but it was invaluable to her as
it had been gift OF President Polk
to her foster mother.
The stones formerly were in rings,
she said, but President Polk had them
reset as they are now. My foster
mother priced it more than anything
she possessed"
Come right over and get it" said
William F. Banks, manager OF the
hotel. ITS waiting for you"
Mrs. Fall did and gave the bellhop

MEDICAL BOARDS
WINGS ARE CLIPPED
BY SUPREME COURT RULING.
WITHOUT AUTHORITY TO
PREVENT PRACTICING.

ATLANTA, Ga.-Under a decision
handed down by the state supreme
court, in the matter OF Bentley VS..
the State Board OF Medical EXamin-
.ers, the state board has a far more
limited exercise OF authority over med
ical practitioners than has been sup
posed, and cannot declare void di-
.ploma or nulify license to practice.
The supreme court says the board
is only an administrative body,
Frank c. Bentley engaged in the
practice of medicine in Murray county,
and the state board, after investiga-
ton, declared he was without that
right, in that he had not complied with
the law, that he did not have proper
diploma, that he did not take three
full courses OF six months each in a
medical college recognized by the
board.
The board thereupon, after having
taken action, sought to have him en-
joined from the further practice Of
medicine Bentley appealed and the
supreme court holds:
The state board OF medical exam
ners is without power to file an equit-
able petition to enJoin one from lille
gally engaging in the practice OF medi
cine in this state, to cancel the diplo-
ma under which he claims to practice
medicine on the ground that it was
fraudulently obtained or is forgery
and to have the license under which
he claims the right to practice medi-
cine declared null and void, and eX-
plunged from the records OF the court
lin which the same is recorded"

BOND OF $4,000 FOR
DEVANE AND HARVEY
ACCUSATION GROWING OUT
OF SCHLEY LYNCHING RE-
DUCED AT HEARING.

ELLAVILLE, Ga.-Benny DeVane
and Henry Harvey, alleged partici-
pants in the lynching of Will Jones,
negro were on Friday held to await
the action of the Schley county grand
jury in $4,000 bail each, after a COM
initial hearing. Justice OF the Peace
Henry ]. Dyess, before whom the
hearing was held, reduced the charge
against DeVane and Harvey to as
sault with intent to murder, the evil
dence having failed to sustain the
murder accusation.
The hearing, which was held in the
superior court room at the court house
here, began at 10 o'clock and contin-
ued two hours. Justice Dyess render
ed his decision Immediately after the
conclusion of arguments by counsel
engaged in the case. Solicitor General
Jule FELTON,, OF Montezuma, appeared
for the state in the hearing, while the
two defendants were represented by
Zach S. Childers, of Americas; E. ].
Hart and Jno S. Chancey, OF Ellaville.
Although numerous witnesses were
examined it is said neither the state
'or defense made any effort to bring
out all the evidence available, it be
ing plainly the object OF Solicitor Eel
ton to secure the binding over of De
Vane and Harvey without disclosing
the full hand OF the prosecution.
Johnny DeVane, Arthur DeVane,
George Phillips, Clarence Robinson
and two unknown soldiers, wanted for
the murder in connection with the
shooting of Jones, were still fugitives
when the trial concluded, and nothing
touching upon their connection with
the case was brought out.

Germans Are Building
Concrete Railroad Cars
Experimenting With Cheaper ant
More Durable Rolling Stock.

Reinforced concrete freights cars are
being tested in Germany, with encour-
aging results, it is reported. The first
fiat cars and gondalas were unaffected
in a collision while travelling II to IS
miles an hour with full load.
Cars of Is and 20 ton capacity are
somewhat heavier than steel cars OF
the same size, but this difference dis
appears in cars OF Acton size. The
German state railroads are planning to
equip their lines with these cars.
Resistance to weak acids in such
freight as coal and slack is the chief
advantage of the concrete car. These
acids often eat away the metal parts
of iron and steel cars The new cars
are cheaply and easily constructed.

OLD ROME CITIZENS
WILL BE WITNESSES
MAN OF 70 HELD IN ALABAMA
FOR MURDER COMMITTED
IN GEORGIA IN 1870.

|. TUSCALOOSA, Ala.-Several OF
the older residents OF Rome, Ga, will
be witnesses when the hearing on a
writ of habeas corpus in the case OF
Hiram Netteles, alias George Nichols,
is called in circuit court here on March
III, Horace c. Afford, attorney for the
state of Georgia, declared today. The
states OF Alabama and Georgia charge
that Nichols is Netteles and that he
lis responsible for the death OF Peter
Mooney at Rome on October Is, 1870.
Divorced Wife Cause.
Other witnesses for the two COM
monwealths will be members OF the
mans own family, Mr.. Afford stated.
1t was through the divorced wife
of Nichols and his eldest son, Hiram
Nichols, that the history OF the Rome
killing came to the attention OF the
courts, the attorney said.
Mrs. Nichols was granted a divorce
in this county about one year ago, the
records show. This proceeding led to
the inquiry, Mr.. Afford said.
The defense, it is understood, will
present numerous witnesses in an at
tempt to substantiate Nichols state
ment that he is not Hiram Casey Net
teles and that he never went under
any name but his own, which he main
tains is Nichols. He has presented two
marriage certificates to show that he
was twice married under the name
of Nichols.
Nichols was arrested Monday on a
warrant issued in Jefferson county.
Governor Kilby at once granted a
Irequisition drawn by Governor Hard
wick and directed that the man be
turned over to the sheriff of Floyd
county, Georgia, for removal to that
state for trial. Habeas corpus pro-
ceedings stayed removal of the pris-
oner. Both the state and defense have
the right to appeal from the decision
! of the circuit court when the matter
is determined by that tribunal.
