SECRET

SESSION

WITHHOLD

After a secret session of almost two hours, the executive committee of the Committee of One Hundred, which led the dry cause in the recent local option election, this afternoon refused to tell whether It had decided to take active steps in laying before Prosecutor Reller the proof of the allegation made by a signed statement of S. Edgar Nicholson. National Anti-Saloon League secretary, after the election, that the wets had bought votes. So intense was the secrecy of the executive committee that its members refused to tell a reporter whether resolutions of any sort had been adopted. He was told that S. Edgar Nicholson would give to the public any information the executive committee wanted known. Nicholson, however, stated he had nothing to say. Judge Fox, of the circuit court, yes HONEYWELL PRAISES CENTRAL CHRISTIANS Commends Attitude of the Rev. R. C. Leonard on Questionable Amusements, j I i The Rev. R. C. Leonard of the Central Christian church, received a letter last week from Evangelist Honeywell, commending him and his church on their attitude on questionable amusements. Be said in part: "Kver since reading in the Richmond paper of your stand regarding your choir and the teachers of your Sunday school on the question of amusements, I have been promising to write you and congratulate you upon your position upon it. I am confident that it will mean much to your church and that God's blessing will rest richly upon you. "The fact is that he has been wonderfully prospering you, and I feel that t h i t is only a token of the larger things that will be in store for you ' and your people. I believe that the success of the Methodist church at Brazil is largely to be attributed to the fact that Mr. Carpenter, the superintendent, has insisted on keeping it clean in these questionable amusements and God has owned him. I surely wish you every success in your work and also wish to state that you and your people were a grpat inspiration to me in nur work there. "Sincerely Yours. "I. K. Monevwell."

MINISTERIAL CRISIS

CONFRONTS Premier Holds Two Cabinet Meetings While House of Commons Waits. LONDON, March 27. "It is the duty of every officer and soldier to obey all commands to aid the civil powers." While cheer after cheer resounded through the House of Commons this afternodn. Premier Asquith served this notice upon the army that parliament is to govern England and that it will not be swerved from its purposes by a "military cabal." The liberals in the house went wild with enthusiasm over the announcement.The premier apologized to the house for his inability to make his statement earlier, saying that it was caused bv the resignation of Field Marshal John French and Lieut. Gen. Sir John Denton Ewart. Asks Reconsideration. The premier then announced that he has asked both these officers to reconsider their resignation. "No officer or soldier shall in the future request assurance regarding orders he might be requested to carry out. It shall be the duty of every officer and soldier to obey all commands from the proper channels to aid the civil powers. I am awaiting their final answer," said the premier. A ministerial crisis ia believed imminent. Both officers were summoned to the premier's residence, while the cabinet was sitting and remained for .some time. The ministers remained in session after the generals left. Conflicting reports were circulated after the cabinet meeting. It was rumored that the premier had asked both officers to withdraw their resignations, but that both had refused to do so. The general opinion prevailed today that Premier Asquith had been strengthened in his position by the action of Field Marshal French and General Ewart, who had given the government an opportunity to wage a campaign on the ground that the issue had narrowed down to a conflict between the army and parliament. The lobbies of the house of commons were crowded long before the hour set for the convening of parliament and a great throng gathered in Downing street about the home of the premier. The excitement in parliament was increased when the Press Association, a leading British news agency, sent out this bulletin: "The postponement of Premier Asquith's statement has caused a grave impression. The Unionist leaders believe the government's resignation is imminent."

Italian farmhouses need improving according to opinion of the government which has $7,585 in premiums to be awarded for encouraging the co--struction of model farm buildings. MENTAL FUZZINESS You can't look a man in the eye when you are out-of-sorts and half sick. You unconsciously show that you are guilty of a breach of Nature's laws. You are fearful because you are mentally fuzzy. Because of some excess. Nature fell behind in her work of purifying the food in the intestines. The Bile is clogged in the Liver. Your blood is taking up the germ laden food and you are stupid fuzzy half a man. The Doctors call it "Auto intoxication." PoDoLax Releases the Bile Bile is Nature's disinfectant and purifies the food in the intestines. Without it we sicken with a free flow we are immune from germs because no foreign germ can multiply after immersion in Bile. PoDoLiix releases the Bile from the Liver. It does it gently, but surely, and after a few days your fuzziness disappears. BILE purifies the body-building food that's why you gain in strength why you become alert and vigorous after taking PoDoLax a short time. Do you want further justification? A 50c bottle will prove it absolutely. PoDoLax is a Podophyllin formula that tastes good that releases the Bile gently without annoyance or loss of time. "P0D0" from Podophyllin "Lax," from Laxative PoDoLax is the name. Ask for it by this name. (Advertisement! Umbrellas Repaired and Covered Covers 75c and Up Second Hand Umbrellas 25 Cents. W. H.
