Thomas J. Blewitt. the well known
electrical engineer of this city", is at
Wa-ycross, Ga. for the Loomis Com
pany. It ds said that the manufactur
ing cost of the current will be cut In
two by the new equipment.
The cost of electric current to con
sumers in waycross at present is s
cents per kilowatt, and the city pays
for ere lights but $60 a year.
Mr. Blewitt observes, in a communi
cation to the Farmer: "This price per
arc light and to consumers is as low
as anything in the country, where fuel
is entirely used, and considering tne
size of the city. ,
"Take those figures and compare
them with Bridgeport and you will
find a vast difference, as the popula
tion of Waycross is only about 11,000
and very scattered, which puts the
cost ' of maintenance a great deal
more."

Farmer Want Ads. 1 Cent a Word
Who said nobody loves a fat man?
Show him to us. . .We have " positive
1j ving proof to the contrary. We call
as our star witnesses Grace LaRue,
the charming comedienne and Broad
way favorite, and Ed Cronan. the ro
tund sleuth of Captain Arnold's detec
tive bureau. Nor will we make them
testify against themselves, if they wish
to remain silent, but we will summon
a score of spectators who gazed with
envy upon the portly detective ser
geant while he basked in the noonday
radiance of the smiles of the attrac
tive actress.
Grace came here today with her
husband. Byron F. Chandler, known
to the gay life of the Metropolis as the
Millionaire Kid. - He and Grace were
speeding from their home in Mt. Ver
non to the boat races last week when
they were arrested here in the crusade
against speeding motorists.
Chandler" and his wife sat on the
first row of the spectators benches in
the City court from 9 o'clock until 10,
while a dozen or more petty offenders
were arraigned In court. Miss La
Rue was an interested spectator, and
turned to her husband, who just tops
her shoulder, to discuss the cases with
him in animated tones. Court Officer
Flnnegan is nothing if not a perfect
gentleman at all times, yet his official
duty made it imperative that silence
should be preserved, in court. So he
tappei Grace on the shoulder, peril
ously near where the collarless effect
began, and requested her to be silent.
Chandler's case was called at 10
o'clock. Clifford Gorgas, the motor
cycle cok who arrested him. was the
only witness called, and as he arose
to testify Miss LaRue favored him
with one of those indescribable smiles
that have made her a fortune in mu
sical comedy. Gorgas was so over
whelmed that he had no little trouble
collecting himself. ' He testified that
Chandler was making about 45 miles
an hour. -
Chandler admitted he was speeding,
but said he believed he had imperilled
no one, and as he neared the center
of the city he slowed his car. Park
Commissioner George M. Eames who
witnessed Chandler's run before he was
arrested, was ready to testify, but was
not needed.
Judge "Wilder Imposed the unusually
heavy fine of $40 and costs. Chandler
was undecided whether to appeal or
pay his fine. He was given a quiet
tip that Judge Wilder was not an
automobilist, whereas in the court of
Common Pleas he would encounter a
judge and prosecutor who both were
auto enthusiasts. He left his wife
alone in the court room while he went
out to do a little telephoning.
Ed Cronan couldn't bear to see such
a nice woman unprotected. How it
happened none can tell, but in a mo
ment he was seated beside the actress.
The court meanwhile had taken a re
cess and all eyes were centered upon
Grace. Attired in a white summery
frock, carrying a straw turban from
which a frothy pink veil dangled in
graceful folds, she made herself per
fectly at home in her unaccustomed
surroundings, and talked to the de
tective as though he were a life long
friend.
John P. Gray, the assistant clerk,
usually so busily occupied in his cler
ical duties that he has time for noth
ing else, called the attention of the
newspaper men to th condition of the
11th button on Grace's left shoe. He
said it was not fastened. The news
paper men took his word for it being
unaccustomed to going Into such triv
ial details. Gray pronouiic-a :4 ancie
snapely, ana saia ine. puttons were
white, against a background of black
leather.
Just how long the interesting con
versation of the actress and detective
might have lasted only they know, but
Judge Wilder soon returned, court con
vened, and all was hushed. Disap
pointment plainly written on his fea
tures. Cronan left his much envied po
sition and the Millionaire Kid return
ed to it. Chandler paid his fine. 145.07.
His wife was formerly a feature with
Sam Bernard's companies, and of late
she had been a va-ievSlIe headllner
suits In Freeing of City
Court Prisoner
That his wife has twice within three
weeks turned on the gas while he and
their little son slept, was the sensa
tional charge of Frederick Bryant, a
machinist of 236 Shelton street ar
raigned In the city court today on
her complaint. He was charged with
drunkenness.
Bryant declared the arrest must
have resulted from a fancy of his
wife's. The police found him sober
when they served a warrant on him.
Bryant was discharged in custody
of the probation officer, who will in
vestigate the home conditions, partic
ularly the alleged attempts at asphyx
iation of the family.- ,
