GIRL IN HOSPITAL. Negro Who Struck Anna Caplan Gets < Thrashing and Fine. Miss Anna Caplan, 13 South High street, is in Mercy hospital in a seri Vous condition as the result of being struck down Thursday night at the ~ ' eorner of Baltimore and Harrison streets by an automobile driven by 1 James C. Lewis, colored, who, after he struck her put on full speed and tried to make his escape. Lewis came up before Judge uj. m. Staylor, in the Traffic court, yesterday afternoon and consumed more ^ than two hours. Judge Staylor imII posed a fine of $50 tor reckless drivp ing, $100 for being under the influI ence of liquor and $150 for not stopI " ping the automobile and giving Miss ftr Caplan assistance after the accident y happened. ' ' The case was one of the most brutal ones that has come before Judge Staylor for some time, and when the accident happened Lewis was given a thrashing by Private Harry E. Weintraub, United States army, who was with Miss Caplan ^nd it is doubtful if his face will resume its normal shape for several weeks. The hearing before Judge Staylor yesterday afternoon was a stormy one and it was brought out that v Lewis and another colored man had 'A* - driven the autmobile recently from Virginia. Shortly before the accident they had stopped at a garage for gas and it was noticed that Lewis was under the influence of liquor. It was also alleged that when he I Jtho carap'ft he I uiuvy me \jctL Hum 0w,*v.0v^ ?. put on all speed. Miss Caplan was dragged fully 50 feet before she could be gotten from under the car and her companion, Private Weintraub, who was also struck, managed to climb on the car and strike Lewis a stunning blow. This did not r .' make him stop the car and Roger L. , Moore, a petty officer in the United *; ... States navy, who was passing at the # time also jumped on the ear and took the wheel and steered the automobile * Into the side walk in an effort to stop ^ it. It was also brought out that Private Weintraub before he entered the army had been a prizefighter, and he told Judge Staylor that, knowing the rules of the prize ring, in his opinion, he had not knocked out LewIs, so he administered another blow which made the colored man look as if he had been struck by a bomb from ': > an airship. The arrest was made by patrolmen Cross and Wurfert, of the Central ^ district.?Baltimore American. Cheerful News From "Over There." It's a shame to do it, but public safety impels us to expose the sergeant who is palming off his Mexican border service-ribbon as an American croix de guerre, thereby raising his own holdings of "amourique Amerique" stock in the eyes of petite MadeIon. f Even so, sleeping on the rocks has its advantages, for in the rosy days of the future when friend wife turns fh( the lock on our late nocturnal home coming, we can curl up on the front porch with sleepful abandon. And when we are in the parlor with our best girl telling her of the great role we played in the world-safe-fordemocracy drama, we'll not-mind it a bit if the passing guard orders, "Camouflage those lights." So many Yanks are over there now that there is scarcely room to house them, thereby creating the necessity of extending the eastern frontier of this domain of Foch, Pershing, et al. To our exchange desk has recently come a copy of the Kriegszeitung, - v the official organ of the Seventh German army. The most we can say for the sheet is that it is Boche and bosh. What gets us guessing is how this daylight saving plan works out in the land of Eskimos, but we suppose all they have to do is to get up six 'months earlier each morning. Elsie Janis danced so gracefully that after she had alighted from a perfectly stunning flip-flop, a doughboy in the third row was heard to re[ mark: "Just like a wheel barrow I v saw in the air after a high explosive ' hit near it."

The gentlemen hunt around and find a girl, and then they must either kiss her or give her a shilling." "Yes?" "Maggie came home with thirty shillings and a war bond."?Tit-Bits. DR. AKIN TAKES CHARGE.

"You recollect when your Uncle | Riley Ricketts rented his farm and went to the city to live with his daughter?he was about eighty years old then, and they thought he needed a rest," stated Burt Blurt. "Well, while I was up to the city last week I went to see Uncle Riley. He said that in summer he had to mow the lawn, hang out the washing, fetch in the ice, go to the grocery now and then, and once in a while club 3 peddler; and in the winter shovel snow off the walks, feed the furnace, and such like, and told me that it was nearly killing him.

Washington, Oct. 17.?Great excitement was created in Antwerp when President Wilson's reply to the German peace note was received, according to an official dispatch receivj ed today from Amsterdam.

This Bamberg woman's story given here is not an isolated case by any means; weak after week, year after year, our neighbors are telling similar good news. Mrs. C. E. Simmons, New Bridge St., Bamberg, says: "Several years ago my kidneys were in poor, weak and unhealthy condition for a long time. I suffered awfully. My back hurt me so badly that I would sometimes have to press my hands upon it to ease tlhe pain. The action ot my kidneys wasn't right and my hands and ankles oi.'ten swelled. 1 always felt tired out, depressed and miserable and aJched all over my body. This is the way I was suffering whea I start(Mi using Doan's Kidney Pilils. I got them from Mack's Drug Store and they brought me relief from the start. In a short while, they rid me of all this trouble. Every time I bear anyone complain of their kidneys now I adivise them to use Doan's Kidney Pins." Price 60c, at all dealers.
