Italians Meet Strong Resistance. Events transpiring in the southern theatre of hostilities, where Italy and Austria are locked in a death grapple for supremacy are beginning to de velop both in Importance and inten sity. Severe fighting in that section occurred during yesterday and early today, the advancing Italians attacking a strongly entrenched Austrian force and heavy fighting being the result. Along the river Isonzo, near the Austro-Italian line, where a body of Italian troops attempted to cross the stream, was defended stubbornly by heavy masses of Austrians, strongly entrenched, the invaders being halted, after sustaining serious losses. At other points along the border the Austrians have entrenched themselves formidably, and increasing opposition is being encountered all along the line by the invading Italians. Serious and prolonged fighting in that section is anticipated during the present week, when the main armies of the contend ing nations are expected to clash in force, at a point north of the inter national boundary and probably in the vicinity of Trieste, whither the Ital ian army is apparently heaAed. I Solid I Satisfaction I There, is. probably, nothing which affords more real satisfac tion to the "smoker” than a per fect cigar. If you want your favorite cigar served with all of its native fragrance —then get the habit of buying you CIGARS from us. Our assortment of Ci gars, Tobaccos, Pipes, etc., is such that we have no trouble in H satisfying the most critical u sm ;,ker. § ELDRIDGE DRUG COMPANY o , ackson St. Phone 33 o SUMTER MIN FOR SPEAKER OF TJE HOUSE COL. J. E. SHEPPARD, OF AMERI CES, WILL BE A CANDIDATE FOR SPEAKER ON PROHIBITION PLATFORM—FORCES LINING UP BEHIND HIM Representative J. E. Sheppard, of Americus, will be a candidate for the speakership of the approaching house of representatives, on a prohibition platform, according to announcements made in Atlanta by officials of t he Anti-Saloon League. Col. Sheppard confirms the report from Atlanta, and states that he’s a bona fide candidate groomed to win the race. hTe Sumter county repreentative is considered one of the strongest men in the house and his candidacy is sure to be popular. As father of the “Shep pard Child Labor Bill,” and advocate of the McCrory bill for cheaper school books, Col. Sheppard made a name for himself in the last session, of the legislature. The prohibition forces are lined up solid behind this candidate for the of fice. His election seems sure, despite claims from the camp of Representa tive Burwell, his opponent. It is un derstood other prospective candidates have agreed to withdraw from the race if the Sumter county man makes the race. Dr. G. W. Eichelberger, leader of the league, says: “Mr. Sheppard stands strongly for the election of the rules committee by the house, instead of its appointment by the speaker. He has been a pro hibitionist all his life and the prohi bitionists of Georgia are solidly be hind him. Mr. Sheppard’s friends state that the liquor Interests, almost without exception, are working hard for the election of a certain other candidate.” GOUNTT OFFICERS CONVENTION MEETS IT INDIAN SPRINGS President John A.
