BULGAR BREAK WITH ENTENTEBELIEVfDSURE

Continued From Page One.

thorities following the conclusion of the recent convention with Turkey seized all Greeks and other christians who had fled from the ranks of the Turkish army to take refuge in Bulgaria and delivered them to Turkish authorities. At the same time, according to these advices, large quantities of food and other supplies have been sent to Turkey from Bulgaria.

No official report has been issued concerning the landing of allied troops at Saloniki. According to Athens three-fifths of the Bulgarian forces are to go

the Serbian frontier and

the remainder will hold the Greek line. Loss of Hohenzollern redoubt near Labassa as announced yesterday by Field Marshal French, was a keen disappointment to England. It is assumed the British troops, after their rush forward over a comparatively wide front, did not have sufficient time to consolidate this difficult position. The British commander's admission of the loss was tempered with the remainder of the British front.

Military writers profess to see already the effects of the offensive in the west on operations over the eastern front. The Russians are holding the Germans before Dvinsk and apparently are giving little ground.

HOLDUP CASES POSTPONED.

The cases of Jeanett McMahan and George Woods,' charged with assault and battery and robbery, respectively, in connection with an alleged hold-up on North Ninth street, were called in City Court Tuesday morning, but were continued on motion of the state until October 12 that the grand jury might act on them.

"i JUST FEE FINE" SAYS MRS. HcffllTT

Vermillion (111.) Woman Makes Strong Statement in Regard to Tanlac.

-WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD

Mrs. W. S. McNutt of Vermillion, 111., Is Enthusiastic Over New Preparation.

"I am unable to express my thanks to Tanlac adequately," said Mrs. W. S. McNutt, when visiting this city. "The remarkable results of this treatment must be felt to be fully realized, and the best I can say for Tanlac is incompetent to express my real gratitude. "I was continually troubled by a tired, down and out feeling coming from the fact that I have suffered for years from stomach trouble. My nerves were practically exhausted. I was weak and emaciated. I could hardly digest liquid foods. I had lost nearly all energy, and my house work was a drudgery. "There were many of my friends speaking of Tanlac, and through them I was induced to try this remedy. Since taking this wonderful medicine I feel stronger and more energetic than I have before since I was a girl. My food digests easily and without discomfort, my nerves are steady, and I just feel fine. Tanlac is worth its weight in gold."

Hundreds of others in this section of the state and elsewhere have experienced the same relief through the use of this Premier Preparation, and are just as wholehearted in the praise of Tanlac as is Mrs. McNutt. Tanlac, the Master Mecidine, can be bought in Terre Haute at the Buntin Drug Co., Sixtb and Wabash avenue, where W. R. Cooper, the Tanlac man, is daily meeting the public and explaining this Remarkable Remedy.

down town. I told him I would stay there until dark and beat It." Hughes said it was shortly after he testified before the grand Jury that a parole officer from 'Jeft'ersonville reformatory arrived here for him.

The defense frequently objected to questions put by Roach. ,• Tells of Wrecking Crew.

William W. Pettit, a co-defendant, who pleaded guilty, testified that William Clauer, a city employe and codefendant, and others took him from the workhouse to register. He said Clauer also asked him alpqut workingj on election day. -1 "Clauer said I %aS 'lb be chief of the wrecking crew and I need not fear the police," the witness said. "We were furnished with blackjacks. I got mine in the headquarters. Johnnie Ferrell, Lloyd Wilson and two others were with me. "We went to the polls and were told that when any of our men were challenged we were to see that they got to vote."

Pettit said he struck a negro named Lancaster and drove him from the polls. He said he took two other colored men into an aley and "they wouldn't fight, so I boxed them a couple of times and they ran away."

The witness said Clauer gave him and his four associates a bottle of whiskey and gave them money to buy more every time the liquor was exhausted. "Clauer said during the day, 'I don't have to watch the polls, my wrecking crew will take care of everything,'" Pettit said. "He also said Clauer told them to block the vote." "Lifted" Poll Bock.

Pettit then related how he attracted the attention of a republican poll book holder while a companion took the book from the holder's pocket. "I told Clauer," the witness added, "about the poll book and he said 'That's good work. Keep it up

The witness told of going to a num ber of polling places in an automobile and voting. "Once I asked Clauer," the witness testified, "what would happen if we were arrested, who would open the doors for us. He said the doors would open as soon as they closed on us. Then I said 'I guess Tom Taggart, Mayor Bell and Chief Perrott got enough money and power to get us out?'"

Pettit said Clauer did not say any thing in reply to his statement. Asked About Repeating.

The witness was cross-examined for the defense by Miller. Miller then took him over his trip as a repeater and questioned him closely as to time and amount of whisky drank between votes. "How many times have you been arrested?" Miller asked. "They did not ask that when they hired me," retorted the witness. "Tour honor, I'd like to be excused from answering that question."

Jud?e W. H. Elchhorn told him to answer. /. "Who told you to make that answer?" Miller asked. "My own conscience," replied Pettit.

The witness admitted going to Richmond, Ind., with a woman, who he said bought tickets for Piqua, O. He said he was brought back from there by agents of the prosecutor's office.

Denfense Wins Point.

On re-direct examination Roach asked Pettit if he knew where the woman who paid his railroad fare to Piqua, O., got her money, but the defense objected and was sustained. The witness was then excused.

Roswell, Stocking, H. T. Mercer and C. H. Barrett said when they went to vote they were told their names had been voted. They were permitted to cast their ballots, however, after mdk'ing affidavit that they had not voted.

Ben Sapieri said William Glenn and Michael McCarthy, the latter a co-

He said the police began visiting hiB place and Sergeant Hulz, a co-defend-ant, beat him up one night and arrested him for resisting an officer.

John F. Neubauer, also a saloon keeper, testified that the collectors said William Kissell, a co-defendant, had sent fcr them and that "if I did not get in line I would be put out of business." He gave $15, he said.

Ernest Schaffer, another saloon keeper, said the collectors for the democratic fund told him if he did not contribute the police might make him trouble. He said did not make any donation.

Evangelist Continues First Baptist Church. The question, "What must I do to be saved?" was answered Monday night by the Rev. Charles E. Watki.is, the evangelist, in his sermon at the First Baptist church. He said: "A man must' first hear the good news. Faith cometh by hearing. The step that readily follows this is the belief upon the power of the son of God to save and to keep. This word is capable of a great many meanings but real belief is putting of an unwavering trust and a committing of one's self into the care and keeping of God."

Mrs. C. A. Ecker sang "How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds," during the opening services. The evangelist will speak Tuesday night at the church.

Charging irregularity ill* the advertising for bids on the improvement of North Thirteenth street, between Wabash avenue and the Vandalia railroad, by the board of public works, on July 17, 1913, Marshall A. Fry, a contractor of Indianapolis, filed suit in the Superior Court Tuesday morning against the city for the return of the money which he deposited with his bid on the improvements. He says he deposited a check for $450 with the board and that though he has repeatedly made a demand on the city for the return of the money the check has been cashed and the money deposited In the city depository.

He charges that prior to the time that his bid was accepted he had no knowledge that the board intended him to install water service pipes, gaa service pipes and sewer laterals, and that had he known that such improvements were contemplated he would have made his bid $5,000 higher.

Northwestern university, had passed resolutions of protest almost unanimously.

Reports Suppressed?

That, through the ministers' influence, reports of the laymen's action were suppressed in Methodist publications and, to a certain extent, in Chicago newspapers.

That ministers who are members of the conference have openly threatened to "pack" this year's meeting of the laymen's association and have the resolutions of protest rescinded.

The pamphlet urges Methodists in the Rock river district to make sure that their delegates' to the meeting of the laymen's association this year know exactly what they are facing and take such action that their hostility to the pension system and the $500,000 endowment fund -will not be further ignored.

Tour money back if ycu want it is the way in which all the leading drug stores are selling Ml-p-na. the ffreat dyspepsia remedy.

This is an unusual plan, but Ml-o-na has so much merit and is so almost invariably successful in relieving all forms of indigestion that the dealers run but little risk in selling under a guarantee of this kind.

Do not be miserable or make your friends miserable with your dyspepsia. Mi-o-na will help you. If it doesn't tell your druggist that you want your money back and he will cheerfully refund it.

A change for the better will be seen from the first few doses of Mi-o-na, and its continued use will soon start you on the road to perfect digestion and enjoyment of food.

Mi-o-na has been so uniformly successful that every box is sold under a positive guarantee to refund the money if it does not relieve. What fairer proposition could be made?

Tou can get Mi-o-na on this money back guarantee from practically every druggist in this vicinity, including Baur's Pharmacy.
