Atlanta, July 30.—The State con. tinued to introduce miner witnesses during the early hours of today’s session of the trial of Leo M. Frank. There is an air of expegtancy. in the court room, however, as the ‘state’s attorneys intimated this morning that some important new evidence might be produced. W. W. Rogers who took the police to the Frank home and later took Frank to the police: station in an automobile, was the first .witness. He repeated his story told at the inquest, adding a e or pe}zflt OF TRADE HOME TRADE pen stepped he other day § uhlmd lnto m of our lsgul and p #&9_ L;‘lur of a well-kno rand manufactured in Tampa.”If convensation he stated that hi: cigars cost him, on an aver. age, fifty cents a day. His attention was drawn to the fact that Lakeland has two cigar factories, putting-up as good a five-cent cigar as could be foond anywhere. The reply was that he had gotten used to smoking the Tampa cigar. The day following another good Lakeland citizen went to ampa on < business and while there states that he bought goods from two stores amounting to $26.90 (all of which;goods he could have procured from merchants in his own town), saving $3.36 on the pur- chase price, besides having his rail- road fare returned to him, If this last named citizeh was connected with either of the cigar factories wwhich he was not) .and the pur. chaser of the cigar was a Lakeland mercheat (which he was), will the latter justify his own act and ocon- demn the act of the former? pa has recently inaugurated a “buy at home” campalgn, which is meet- ing with splendid ;emlfi'. . 1ake.

This microbe, which is visiblo only under a very powerful microscope and is térmed a protozoeaire, is invariably found in the blood and joints of persons suffering from rheuniatism.

Mortgage bonds issued by commercial banks and by private joint stock land mortgage banks sell substantially on the same basis with like securities fssued by government- favored institutions, and both classes of banks are recognized as ncedful in the development and conservation of agricultural resources.
