^Bonding a hearing and trial, cair.e
^H/>fore the court at noon. He was ar^Bjiinged
Tuesday. Messrs. J. I), and
H V. J. Bellamy, of Wilmington, his atAn
an allidavit, read by his attor^Hrey,
Walker cited a number of alleg
r conditions to prove that he could
|3B (>t receive a fair and impartial trial
Brunswick county, therefore he
I fayed that his trial might take place
> some other county.
Among the reasons: That the
^ceased, Stanland, was related to a
jfeat number of persons in this coun
7; that the present sheriff had assis*d
in the attempt to capture him, at
le time of the shooting; that nearly
'eryone here had heard and express;'l
an opinion as to his guilt; that in|mse
prejudice existed, and threats
wd been made against his life during
captivity. Affidavits were also ofIred
from two persons, claiming to

ffendant could not secure justice bc[> 6

trial here.
^Speeches by Messrs. Cranrner and

'the prosecution, then were heard,
argument against removal of the

ffument for removal of the case to

tfrd by a large crowd that packed

|tge Justice made his statement and

the attorneys for both sides
eed that Pender should be the

TEN WEEKS IN BED-EMINENT
PHYSICIANS FAILED?
WONDERFUJJECO 'ERY
I wish to inform you of the great
benefits I have derived from the use
of Swamp-Root. 1 had been a sufferer
for more than twenty years from
kidney and liver trouble and was almost
constantly treated by the most
eminent physicians who could only
give me temporary relief. 1 had been
in bed ten weeks when 1 began the
use of Swamp-Root. Inside of twenty
four hours I could see that I had
been greatly benefitted. I continued
to use Swamp-Root until I had used
several bottles when 1 really felt that
my old trouble was completely cured
and I am positive that any person suffering
with kidney or liver trouble
can be cured by the use of this preparation.
I am now in the best of health, better
than I have been for ten years or
more. I do not know how to express
myself as strongly as I desire, in favor
of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, as
I am sure that it saved my life and
that my good health is due entirely to
this great remedy. I heartily recommend
it to every suffered and am confident
they can be benefitted as I have
been. It is a pleasure for me, gentlemen,
to hand vou this recommendation.

COURT UPHOLDS SENTENCES
Affirms Verdict in Diggs-Caminetti
Case.
San Francisco, March 18.?The convictions
of F. Drew Caminetti, son of
Anthony Caminetti United States
commissioner general of immigration
and Maurice 1. Diggs. former State
architect, under the Mann white slave
act, were affirmed today by the United
States circuit court of appeals.
The opinion was delivered by Presiding
Judge Gilbert and was concurred
in by Judge Wolverton. Judge
Ross dissented.
Diggs and Caminetti were tried and
convicted in district court in 1913
for the transportaton of Lola Norris
and Marsha Warrington from Sacramento,
Cal.,? to Reno, Nev., for immoral
purposes.
Diggs was sentenced to imprison
i. TII?XT-!1 ~1 1 i?
muni on mti^uii lsiumi ior two years
and fined $2,000. Caminetti was sentenced
to 18 months imprisonment and
a fine of $1,500.
The oase went to the higher court
on a writ of error.
The opinion holds that the prosecution
had a right to comment on the
fact that Diggs was silent upon the
movements of the four principals after
they left Sacramento and that it
was proper for the jury to consider
this silence as an indication of guilt
or innocence. 1
FIGHT FOR POSITION

Allied Armies Preparing for
Great Assault When Roads

FRENCH CONTINUE GAINS
~
Continued Activity on Eastern
War Front,?Germany
Scores Again in Matter
of . Submarines. ;
The general situation in regard to
tne iMiropeun war toward the close ol
the past week was as follows:
From one end of the long Western
battle front to the other Belgians,
French British and Germans are
fighting for strategic positions prepar
atory to the great effort to be made
when the roads are dry. Munitions
have been brought up and the men are
ready.
The nature of the more or less isolated
struggles going on can be imag
ined from the losses both to the Germans
and British during a few days'
fighting around N< uve Chappelle. The
German casualties, according to Gen.
French, numbered in the neighborhood
of 18,000. An official list issued
by the British war oilier gives the
number oi Lsritish officers killed in
those operations as 112 with 119
wounded or not accounted for. Losses
among the men are believed to be
large, numbering, it is estimated
about two-thirds of the German losses
French successes are reported in
Champagne, particularly around
Perthes, where important trenches
have been captured, as well as a
height which dominates a large section
of ground. In an attempt to
regain this height, a lanstrum regiment,
supported by the guards delivered
a violent counter attack in
which, according to the French account.
there were few survivors.
A dispatch from Pctrograd says the
fall of Przcmysl, the Galician city,
which has boon holding out since
early in the war against the Russian
attackers, is expected within a few
days.
The Russians in Poland are conducting
an active campaign along
both banks of the Orzyc river, but
they are being met by the Germans
with equally hard blows. Official communications
on these operations are
as meagre in detail as they are with
respect to the campaign in the Carpathians.
Through the chancellor of the exchequer,
the British government announces
that it intends to take over
factories in England for the production
of war supplies.
The Washington state department
has made public the six notes exchanged
between this country and
Germany and Great Britain and
France relative to submarine warfare,
the use of neutral flags, the removal
of mines, the question of food
shipments and the proclamation of a
blockade by the allies.
Referring to the proposed blockade
the German press says it will serve
to goard Germany into waging a
submarine warfare with resolution.
Three submarines at various times

through the Irish sea to Liverpool
from New York. The steamer's speed
saved her. German underwater craft
however, have torpedoed three additional
steamers.
A Dardanelles dispatch reports the
loss of three mine sweepers and one
sailing vessel and considerable damage
to a British cruiser in the fighting
in the straits. The British admiaralty
announces that 23 men were
killed and 37 wounded on board the
cruiser Amethyst last Saturday night,
and that the battleship Ocean lost two
killed, while several of the other vessels
engaged had slight easualties in
men wounded.
American citizens in Austria are

NEW GAGTUS PLANT
IN WASTE PLAGES
Will Crow Where Nothing EIso
Will and Furnishes Food.
ARTICLE OF INTEREST
Spineless Cactus is Destined to
Become one of the World's
Most Useful Plants,-Does
Not Require
Rich Lands.
Columbia Record.
Mr. 11. K. Thompson has sent to this
office a slab of the spineless cactus,
the wonderful plant given to the
world by Luther Burbank. The scient
ist took the ordinary old-time "prickly
pear," removed the "spines" or
prickly points and gave to the world j
an edible plant which fills in waste I
places, growing- where nothing lose
will .
Spineless cactus is destined to hecome
one of the world's most useful
plants?furnishing food for men and
beast, and growing in regions which
have been regarded as too poor for
stock raising or any kind of farming.
It has been suggested that spineless
cactus would grow prolifically in even
the barren sandhills of Richland
county.
Mr. Thompson has handed The
Record some interesting phamplcts
bearing on the spineless cactus. In
one of these it is claimed that one
acre of cactus will care for as many
cattle as 50 acres of open range, eight
acres of alfalfa or 10 or more acres
of the ordinary pasture grasses.
The cactus does not require rich
lands. Experiments are being made
in Florida in the ordinary sand lands,
and the prospects of success are
bright.
In Mobile, Ala., a number of the
leading business men have incorporated
a company and have planted a
carload of slabs, as the branches of
the cactus are known. Each of these
leaves or slabs weighs from two to
12 pounds. One is on exhibition in
the window of the office of S. H. McI
i .. c 11. c j i
Ul.-Clll, W1 LIIC OUUUlern
railway. The slabs themselves
are planted as cuttings.
The time to plant is in hot weather
The land must be well drained. The
cactus seems the opposite of things
we know. It requires hot weather and
dry soil. It is best to plant a whole
slab. It requires from four to six
weeks for a slab to take root and it
is better for the suttings to be wilted
a littlebit. The slabs are planted
one-third under the ground, either
straight up or at an angle, with the
flat sides facing east and west.
While the cactus thrives best in
good soil, yet it will grow in poor
land, provided that the soil is kept
dry to a depth of six inches from the
top during the planting and germination.
The cactus is planted in double
rows 12 feet apart to permit wagons
to drive between the rows. It is said
to be valuable as an adjunct to alfal
fa. It improves year by year. It
should never be planted in the shade
or in wet weather. However, it requires
a lot of rainfall to give best
results.
One man can set out 1,000 slabs a
day, and the cost of setting out will
not exceed $5 an acre.
The cactus may be allowed to grow
year after year and be gathered as
needed. It requires no storage except
where the winters are severe. It may
be fed at any time of the year. "On
good land, more tons of it can be obtained
per acre than on five or ten
acres of other forage."
Ordinarily, cactus requires other
food mixed with it, just as with other
forage crops. Poultry and hogs devour
it greedily. It improves the flavor
of milk. There is a variety of
the spineless cactus that bears fruit,
which may be eaten in the raw state.

to 35,000 pounds. The fruit contains
from seven to 12 per cent of sugar and
may be made into jam or jelly,and is
very line for fattening hogs.
The most astonishing statement,
however, about this cactus is the following:
"Experts give cactus its status from
agricultural point of view, by stating
that it possesses from one-half to
three-fourts the food value of alfalfa.
But it must be borne in mind that a
much larger tonnage of cactus can
be produced to the acre. One acre of
alfalfa with irrigation will support
one cow, ^whereas one acre of cactus
will support at least four cows without
irrigation and that with only one

GERMANS UNABLE

RUSSIANS IN PRUSSIA
Reported to Have Crossed the
German Frontier Near Tilsit
London, March 19.?The apparent
failure of Field Marshal Von Hindenburg's
various attempts to reach War
saw, the reappearance of Russians
over the East Prussian frontier, near
Tilsit, and the allied offensive in the
west has, according to British observers,
put Germany in a position where
she dare not shift any substantial
force from either the east or the west.
Although there are rumors of reinforcements
being hurried from Poland
to France or Belgium to meet the
French and British thrusts, military
writers in London hold to the opinion
that Germany must maintain her pros
ent armies in both areas of lighting
practicality intact. This will necessitate
the finding of new forces for both
the east and west if she would effectually
meet the increasing strength
of her enemies. It is pointed out that
the plan to deliver a crushing blow in
one theatre and then to rush across
the country to the other has miscarried
on both fronts. This was seen
first in the dash to Paris, second in
the rush for Calais; third in the battle
of Ypres, and then repeatedly in
the east, as Field Marshal Von Hindenburg
sought to break through the
Russian linos to the Polish capital.
Great Britain has made no official
reply to the German allegations that
a British squadron fired 011 the German
cruiser Dresden while she was

waters and no denial has been forthnam
