WILLS TRAINING
 HARD FOR BOUT
If Negro Does Not Whip Firpo
 Will Not Be His Fault

SOUTHAMPTON, N. r., Aug. g. It is the opinion of those who are keep ing close watch upon Harry Wills' trainink that the negro pugilist is im- proving and if he fails to win the de- cision in his coming bout with Firpo 1t will not be because he has not faith fully gone through his daily grind.
 His weight is 220, but he expects to get down to 215. when he enters the ring. Asked if he thought the fight would last six rounds, he said he did not know how long it would take but that he was going to do his best.
 This morning Wills did 12 miles on the road. After punching the punching bag for some time this aftArnoon hA went six rounds with two sparrine part. ners.

HON DOCTORS ,.5'
TREAT COLDS
AND THE FLU
First Step in Treatment Is Gallo
tabs the Purified and Refined
Calomel Tablets That Are
Nausealess, Safe and Sure.

Doctors have found bv experience
that no medicine for colds. coughs,
sore throat and Influenza can be de-
pended upon for full effectiveness
until the liver is made thoroughly
active. That is why the first step
in the treatment is the rausealess
calomel tablets called Calotabs,
which are free from the sickening
and weakening effects of the old
style calomel. Doctors also point
out the fact that an active liver may
go a long way towards preventing
influenza and colds and is one of
the most important factors in en-
abling the patient to successfully
withstand an attack and ward off
pneumonia.
One or two Calotabs at bed time,
with a swallow of water-that's all.
No salts, no nausea nor the slight
est interference, with your eating,
pleasure or work. Next morning
your cold has vanished, your liver
is active, your system is purified,
and you are feeling fine, with
hearty appetite for breakfast. Cen
uine Calotabs are sold only in orig
inal sealed packages, price thirty
five cents for the large, family,
package; ten cents for the small,
vest-pocket, size. (adv)

BAUXITE DEPOSIT is
FOUND NEAR ROME

ROME, March 6-The Chamber
of Commerce announces the discov-
cry of what appears to be one Of
the largest, if not the largest de-
posts of bauxite in eastern AmeJ-
lea. The deposit lies within six
miles of Rome and prospect tests m
dicate that it is a solid mountain
of bauxite. Test holes have beer
made showing a ten foot ven.
These test holes continue on up the
mountain and indicate that the VEN
takes the confirmation of the
mountain shafts over eighty feet
Of the mountain shafts
have been deg showing
good quality of bauxite all the way
There is only four-foot over-bur-
den over the entire deposit, making
it steam shovel proposition. BauX-
tie in this section of the country
usually runs in jockets and this de-
post is remarkable from the fact
that the supply seems practically
unlimited.
The bauxite was discovered by
H. H. Shackleton who is also re-
eponsible for sinking of the test
shafts. An analysis of this deposit
shows a good quality, free from
the usual iron ore stains.

FLINT RIVER POWER
CO. TO RE-0RGANIzE
Big New Power Development in
Thomaston District Indicat-
ed In Move

MACON, March 6.-That big wa
ter power development may be ex-
pected soon along the Flint Riv,r
especially in the Thomaston dis
trict, is indicated by the announce
ment Yesterday that the Flint River
Power Company will be reorganized
here today.
The company, although in eX's-
tence for ten years or so, has done
little except to purchase a little
real estate. This land may be
utilized, it is learned in the water
power development that is now pro
posed.
Three sites for the waterpowcr
project have been obtained in the
vicinity Of Thomaston, any one Of
which would be desirable for the
establishment of a hydro-electilc
plant. 'NtH
Not only could the waterpower
develop there be used to supply the
Thomaston district, which is big
consumer of electric power, but it
could be distributed to Macon and
other Middle Georgia cities. At the
present time the Thomaston district
has to depend upon the power OBJ
tanned from the Jackson dam.

CONFESSED FIREBUG
GETS LONG SENTENCE

NEW YORK, March 6.-Edward
Schlott, who styled himself "the m
ternational fire bug" was sentenc-
ed Wednesday to from ten to TWEEN
ty years in prison for attempted
arsons. Schlott, also known as Otto
Schultz and Daniel Lee, in plead
ing guilty last week said he had set
at least fifteen fires since 1919.
Schlott said he had a mania fol-
fire setting. He was arrested after
he had tried to burn the hotel Merle
where he lived, December z, last.
Schlott confessed to starting fires
in hotels, rooming houses, pubic
institutions and private homes from
coast to coast.
At his trial Schlott told Judge
Mancuso that his mania was the re-
suit of a fever contracted while lie
wasseving with the army in the
Philippines.
