DUST-BEGRIMED
PEASANTS SEEN
Tysran, Once Most Colorful
City Along the Volga,
Reeking With Filth.
Syzran. Russia. Sept. 6. (By tlu .As--viated
Tress.) There was a time when
Sypran was the rriose cheerful city along
Volga, hut that time is gone Todav
:: is crowded with dust-begrimed rn-'is-.-'ts.
who group themselves into gray
--Hssess in their search for food. There
is a time when the air was filial with
perfect babble of tongues Lh. Ian
i.Tces of the Kalmucks, Mongols. Tar-
:s, Chinese and Russians but the
v.wds that throng the streets of the
-v at present are mute. Kven the
'tighter of children has bem silenced
::; the despair that has settled over
-!v?e t?ns of thousands, who si., cross
ing themselves.. and wait for what s;ems
-,i ho the inevitable.
Many professional beggars of th? yp
v type are to be found here and in
-'.her large centers in southeastern Ru?
?.a. but the starving farmers ;.sk no
alms and utter no cry.
They stand silent and await their fate
-ith the stoicism pictured so graphical-".-
by Tolstoy and Dostoievsky. Markets
rave sprung up mushroom-like here and
here about the refugee camps, offering
for sale vegetables, bread, flour and
vr. pat. They are surrounded by hungry
' -rople. who have no money "to offer,
r mt who exchange wedding rings, fur-
coats, caps, kettles, pans, boots and oth-1
or possessions. They know the Russian !
winter is coming and that it will find
them without shelter and clothing, but
they are obliged to give up the neces
sities of tho future to meet the demands
of the present.
Large peasant families arrive in a
state of exhaustion, their carts being
dragged by camels and starved horses.
There is no hay or grain hers and there
is slight prospect that the animals can
be kept alive until spring.
FAMILIES SEPARATED
Great crowds attempt to cling to the
few trains tha tlcave here daily and
soldiers often put some of the refugees
from the cars, frequently separating
families, some members of which have
managed to secrete themselves between
the cars.
Typhus has appeared in many places,
and the hospital superintendent at
Samara said the other day the only way
to handle the situation was to segregate
those who had been stricken. They re
ceive rations when food is available but
there is no soap and no hot water to
wash the sufferers., many of whom are
children. Fiv? hundred sick children
were found grouped in one building in
Samara. Some of them were seen eating
leaves from shrubs while others were
lying about on dirty bags, more dead
than alive. Most of these children were
so ashen and emaciated that they re
sembled old .men and women.
Many once-prosperous German fami
lies from Mariupol and other German
centers ar eamong the refugees at Sa
mara and are living in filth and poverty
in crowded dock sheds, or have no she1
ter at all.
INDICT NINETEEN MEN
FOR WRECKING TRAIN
Fit.?erald, Ga., Sept. 6. Nineteen
men, including Mayor J. L. Pittman, of
Pittsgerald, were Monday indicted by
the F.en Hill special grand jury upon
the blanket charge of "interfering with
employes" in connection with strike
troubles and the wrecking of the Atlan
ta, Birmingham and Atlantic Railroad
freight train recently near Cordele,
with dynamite.
Of the 19 men, two were engineers
two trainmen, ten shop employes, two
conductors, one clerk and one firemen
all of them strikers at Fitzgerald. The
investigation of the grand jury grew
out of the recent strike disorders in
which one man. Engineer W. T. Reid,
was fatally wounded, several trains
wrecked and much hot feeling shown
between the striking and other factions
ft WEATHER CONDITIONS.
A weak low-pressure area is center
ed on the middle Atlantic coast, rela
tively high pressure prevailing from
the middle Mississippi valley north
westward to the north Pacific coast.
Pressure gradients, however, are quite
shallow throughout the country.
Thee have been light to moderate
showers in the extreme eastern mrfr
of the State, and a light shower a'
Greensboro; moderate rains have ori
curred generally in Oklahoma and Ar
kansas, and mostly light widely scat
tered showers in Texas, Tennessee, Mis
souri, and western parts of Pennsyl
vania and New York.
Temperatures in the cotton belt hiV3
continued abov normal during the pist
three days, and maxima of 100 or above
were reported Saturday, Sundav and
Monday from the Carolinas, Georgia
and O-tianoma, ana from norther n
Texas Sunday. A temperature of 13 1
occurred Sunday at Florence, S. C.
The northwestern "high" is attend
ed by cooler weather. temperatures
this morning ranging from 3 to 12 .be
low normal in Iowa, western Kansii,
Nebraska, North Dakota, and most of
the Rocky Mountain and Plateau
States. In northern Wyoming it is two
tlegrees above freezing. East of thn
Mississippi generally warm weather
continues (except in Maine), departures
above normal ranging from 2 to 8 de
grees.
Conditions charted this morning
seem to favor to continuance of gen
erally fair weather in this vicinity
tonight and Wednesday, and probably
longer. While there will be no de
cided change in temperature, the ttn
dency will be toward somewhat cooler.

London, Sept. 6. Five women coun
cillors of Popular were arrested Monday
to the accompaniment of stirring
scenes. Their arrest had been post
poned out of consideration for their sex
and in the hope that the trouble aris
ing between the borough council aril
the London county council respecting
taxes would be adjusted. But the wo
men themselves invited the sheriff 10
arrest them and appointed the hour for
the ceremony at the town hall, assur
ing the sheriff that, at that hour, there
was no danger of disorders.

WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?
What is a definition?
Can you put words together so as to make them
say just what you want them to mean and nothing
more or less?
A definition of anything is a description of that
thing which INCLUDES everything in the class named
and EXCLUDES everything else. '
Perfectly easy when you know how.
Chiropractic is a method of pal
pation, nerve tracing and adjust
ment of vertebrae for the relief
of morbid conditions.
Stedman's Medical Dictionary
(1918.)
This meets the condition for a definition very precisely. No other system or method
combines the unique and distinctive method of examining the spine with the hands
(palpation); the art of searching out and skilfully tracing sensitive or impigned nerves
to the organs in which disease is to be found (nerve tracings); and the specified me
chanical tracing of the partly displaced bones which crowd those nerves land setoff the
flow of vitaj energy to the rest of the body. (adjustment), EXCEPT CHIROPRACTIC.
Every other system is excluded by this description. Even the word "relier instead
of "cure" is correct, because the Chiropractor relies upon Nature herself to do the curing.
v .t.: u rMmnra.fnr Hnes and everything that is distinctively Chiro-
practic is summed up in those two short lines. The system is so simple, so direct, and

Salisbury, Sept. 6. Arthur Burns, a
negro taxi driver was robbed of $20
by a negro passenger who held him
up after having him drive into a lonety
spot south of the city Sunday night.
A negro friend o Burns' named Haw
kins, who was also in the car was also
relieved of $35 by the passenger who
then made his escape.
Sheriff Krider and a deputy with blood
hounds had a lively chase after a negro
who lumped from a train near Spen
cer and escaped from a Georgia officer
who was taking him to Macon from
Baltimore where he had been arres-ted
for forgery in Georgia. The negro got
six miles or more away before he
was stopped by citizens who got sus
picious of him and held him until the
officers arrived.
