Shelby, Oct. 29?The glamor that is Romany came today to Shelby, staid #ld town the state's governor calls home, because, it was charged, a Gypsy princess had been kidnapped. Hundreds of Gypsies, their automo biles bearing licenses of many states, thronged the quiet streets yesterday and today. This afternoon a Gypsy cou..*t, to whom County Recorder Horace Ken nedy declared authority to hear mani fold charges that grew out of the re ported elopement of Princess "Baby" Mitchell, 14, yith Wanda Everett, of another faction, convened in Wood land near Shelby. The story of tfce difficulties news papermen managed to piece together was a complicated and confused one. Two factions of the Upper Romany tribe, the Mitchells and the Everetts, *-?? ? -? 1 J apparently are iuywvciu ivunug vtw both is John King1 Mitchell, resident of Charlotte, and father of the prin cess, who bears the title of "Register and Recorder." Sons of Mitchell operated a booth at the Cleveland county fair last week. Their sister was with them. Friday night the dusky beauty of fourteen years fled- with Everett, though the man was already married. The Mitchells swore out a warrant charging Everett with "hold up, as sault and kidnapping." Hie sum of $500, they said, had been taken from them by the elopers. Everett, taken in Kings Mountain, promptly countered with a warrant charging George Mitchell with an at tack upon Everett's wife. The woman issued a denial and Mitchell, was released. Everett took out still another warrant charging the Mitchells with theft of $500 in gold and diamonds from him. , Members of the two factions, in formed of the. difficulty, began pour ing into Shelby. Other- charges were brought Local,police grew weary of making arrests. Recorder K?nnaHy despaired of rendering justice. The jail waa full; a score of others had made bond. ft was-with relief, therefore, that he accepted "King" Mitchell's offer A- J- Al .1 ? _ /t _ w utxaue uie many cnarges m uypsy tribunal.

I had no sppetite and the little food I did eat just had to be forced down; then I would suffer agony from it with griping pains in the pit of my stomach, in idy right aide and in the small of my back. My heart would get so weak and would flutter so fast at tinus it would frighten me. I would havte terrible smothering spells and would have to gasp, for breath. < "My circulation was bad. I would feel chilly at times, and again great beads of sweat would stand out' over < my forehead, and I would get blind and dizzy too. "Yes, I suffered from chronic con stipation for years and also had a very bad, inactive liver. Often times I had bilious attacks which would make me deathly ill. During the past five years I don't believe I had a single night of good restful sleep. My nervous system was* surely a wreck. I couldn't stand for strangers or even my neighbors to come into 1 QTQV rtf I my nuuae. 11VUU115 xu vuv v medicine or treatments fever did me any good. In fact, my condition was so bad none of my neighbors thought I would ever get well. "Finally I decided to try Sargon. I've taken 15 bottles of Sargon and about 7 bottles of the Pills. /Wfell, it just acted like a miracle in my case. I actually gained 68 pounds in weight. As I said before, I only weighed 62 pounds when I started on it and now I weigh 125 pounds, and I feel just like a woman made all over again. I have regained all my strength and energy and am doing all my house work. I can hardly wait from one meal to another. "The Sargon Pills have cured me of bilious attacks and constipation. * They are so wonderful I now feel < like I would like to tell the whole \ world about Sargon and the Pills.
