HARD FIGHT ON
FOR SENATOR.
A CIRCULAR ON BOSSISM.
ADMISimtITIOJi LEADERS “SAT
THINGS" ABOUT CARD.
|*M Braiinen>Hunli Circular Sent to
Voter* of Effingham County—One
or Too of tlie Circular* Reached
Snvttnmt h Ycterdny Morning and
Chatham Politician* Talked—Deny
That Fight i Being Made on Ro
tating System—Excentive Commit
tee Meet* Monday.
With the primary only three days
away the senatorial contest in the
First district is reaching the fever
point.
Under the caption “Savannah Lays
Down Law to Effingham” a circular
has been put into the hands of the
Voters of the adjoining county and
Chatham county politicians are not
*it all pleased.
One or two of the circulars reached
Bavannah yesterday morning and the
administration followers begun saying
things.
They were offended at the contents
of the circular, because they contend
that the charges made are not true,
and hcause Col. Kufus PI Lester
was referred to in a "slurring man
ner.”
< ironlnr on lUnoifini.
The circular is not signed and is as
follows:
“The Savannah politicians in mass
meeting assembled last Tuesday night,
passed a resolution saying if Effing
ham did not vote as Savannah wanted
them to on the senatorial question,
they will repudiate the action of the
people of Effingham.
"How is this for bossism?
"Do the independent people of Eff
ingham belong to Chatham?
"The same meeting in Savannah in
dorsed Lester, who seems to think the
office belongs to him.
“In every section of the district peo
ple are tired of Savannah running the
•whole business, and they are going to
Vote for Brannen from Bulloch county.
"Let the independent manhood of
Effingham assert itself and teach the
■a vannah bosses a lesson.”
Not PifthtinK (or Foy.
“We do not say that Effing-ham coun
ty must elect John E. Foy.” said a
leader of the administration forces
■who had scanned the circular, “but
■we do say that we will not agree to
the election of Col. Morgan Rawls.
“There is no use to mince matter
now. We object to Col. Rawls. We
do not want to do away with the ro
tation system and we are not fight
ing for Mr. Foy. We are simply op
posing a man who is vacillating.
"We contend that Chatham county
Is vitally interested in the selection
of a senator for this district, and we
Insist that we have a right to ask
that Effingham county select a man
!who wtill not antagpnize our interests.
Fight on Cnl- Rawls.
"We have no candidate for the office
and do not intend to have one. We
simply propose to Insist that a man
Who will be perfectly fair to us be
chosen. And we do not feel that Col.
Rawls is such a man.
"It is quite true that we are making
a fight on him. but certainly not in
the interest of any other candidate.
!We do not anticipate that the pro
Brannen-Rawls circular will do Col.
Rawls any good in Effingham, since
Col. Lester has many staunch sup
porters there who are certain to take
notice of the circular that has been
Issued."
Will be. Seven Boim.
Notice* have been sent out of a meet
ing of the County Executive Commit
tee to be held in the City Court room
Monday at noon. At this meeting all

•ENTIRELY TOO LATE
WITH PIER SUGGESTION
Mayor Myers Snlil *o in Speaking of
the Reereation Pier.
Mayor Myers said yesterday that no
one had spoken to him in regard to
the proposed recreation pier on the
site of the City Exchange.
Nothing can come of the sugges
tion, the Mayor said, as the City H’all
has been positively decided upon for
this site. He thought the suggestion
at this late date rather ill timed.
No matter whether the pier would
be a good thing or not, it could not
be now, said the Mayor. Work of
tearing down the Exchange and pre
paring for the City Hall has advanced
too far. he said.
NEGRO WAS ACQUITTED
OF FORGERY CHARGE.
Case \gninnt Daniel Brook* Not
Called Until I .ate In Day.
After 6 o'clock last night, when the
Martin case had been given to the jury,
the case of the state against Daniel
Brooks, charged with forgery, was
called in the Superior Court.
Col. Robert L. Colding appeared for
the prosecution and Mr. Jacob G-azan
appeared for Brooks. It was charged
that Brooks had altered the figures
on a certain paper of the National
Biscuit Company. This charge was
not sustained, in the minds of the jury,
and a verdict of acquittal was ren
dered.
The most interesting part of the case
was the battle between counsel over
the admission of testimony. The
points argued were the admission of
a manifest varying from that attached
to the indictment. Later the prosecu
tion wished to admit the bottle of
ink that it was alleged had been used
by Brooks in making the forgery, and
another legal battle ensued.
BURNETT-CUNNINGHAM
CASE TO SUPREME COURT.
Defendant Not Satisfied With City
Court JndKinent.
In all probability the litigation be
tween Mrs. M. V. Burnett and Mrs.
I'. E. Cunningham will find its way to
the Supreme Court.
Mrs. Cunningham, through Mr. A.
L. Alexander her attorney, has filed
exceptions, pendente llte, to the judg
ment rendered by Judge Norwood.
The suit was instituted for the re
covery of $1,083.50, evidenced by two
notes. On Feb. 26 Judge Norwood
passed an order sustaining the demur
rer to the pleas and answers of Mrs.
Cunningham, and directed that unless
the pleadings were amended that judg
ment be entered up in favor of Mrs.
Burnett.
It is to this'order that the exceptions
are taken by Mrs. Cunningham.

REGULARLY PRACTICE
On New I'lstnl Hange That lfaa Been
Built at Police Headquarter*.
No definite plans for practice on the
new police pistol range have yet been
announced by the superintendent, but
arrangements will be made within a
few days to have the patrolmen prac
tice regularly.
Yesterday a number of the officers
shot on the range, but there was no
regularity about the practice. After
a few days regular practice squads
will probably be detailed twice a week,
that all may have the benefit of the
range. The men will be coached by
experts.
SNATCHED PURSE FROM
LADY ON THE STREET.
Another Case of Purse Snatching
Reported to the Police.
It was yesterday reported to the po
lice that Miss Eugenie Stetter had a
pocketbook snatched from her the
night before by a white man at Hab
ersham street and Park avenue.
Miss Stetter resides at No. 208 Duffy
street, west, and was on her way home
at the time the purse was snatched
from her hand. She called for help,
but the man managed to make his es
cape before any one arrived. The
purse contained $lO in silver.
UNCLE SAM WILL
SELL FOUNDATION.
The United States government has
called for bids for the sale of the
foundation of the old postofflce at
York and Abercorn streets. The old
stables and other property on this site
will be included and will be sold to
the highest bidder. The foundation is
laid fourteen feet deep.
There’s a inherence.
Perhaps the word ‘’tonic’’ is more
often abused ,ahd twisted from its
original meaning that any other in
the English tongue. It is ueed to
characterize whatever temporarily
spurs or excites the system without
regard to its lasting benefits.
A well known medical writer lately
said: “A real tonic builds instead of
booming, strengthens instead of excit
ing; it feeds instead of frightening. A
tonic, in the true sense, is a food, a
nutrient. It must nourish."
That' is why a malt tonic—Si true
malt tonic—is ideal. It supplies not
only the vitalizing effect, but the food,
the up-building elements.
A great many dark-colored beers are
christened “malt tonics," but they lack
the food elements and the reconstruc
tive properties.
Malt-Nutrlne, the product of Anheu
ser-Busch Brewing Association, St.
Louis, is a tonic that is rich in nutri
ment. and a builder-up.
It is especially valuable to con
valescents, nursing mothers and those
who have need of an effective tonic
that will be retained by the most deli
cate stomach.
Its acceptance and use in the prac
tice of America’s most eminent and
successful physicians, and the great
and continued demand for it at drug
gists’ and grocers’, by whom it is sold
the country over, proves conclusively
its merit and popularity.
Malt-Nutrine is served at the lead
ing health resorts and summering
places.—ad.

SAVANNAH MORM.NG NEWS: SATURDAY. APRIL 16. 1904.
OFF FOR HEAVEN;
LANDED IN JAIL.
JUDGE M’ALPIN-AS ST. PETER
AIDED M ETERI ALLY IN GETTING
LUNATIC BEHIND THE BARS.
Was Smashing Furniture and Break
ing Windows (n Her Hume When
Arrested—Was Told That She
Would be Taken to Heaven, the
Place for Which She Said She Was
So StrenuouMly Preparing—Char
lot-ride to the Jail Completed the
Proceedings—Entered Celt to
“Purge Her Sln.”
Believing that she was an route to
heaven. Elsie Bostick, colored, was
yesterday escorted from her home in
West Savannah to the Ordinary's
Court and thence to* the county
jail.
Her incarceration In jail was car
ried out on the same scheme, and all
the details of arraignment in the world
to come were in the comedy.
The woman was constantly applying
the names of the departed saints to
the officials of the Court of Ordinary,
and for a time the interest in the
proceedings was at fever heat.
The first hint that there was some
thing doing came with a telephone
message that the woman was smash
ing the windows and breaking up the
furniture in her home at West Savan
nah. Officers were at once sent to the
scene of the trouble to make inquiry
and stop the wholesale destruction.
Mid the sound of breaking glass and
the cracking of the furniture, they en
tered the woman’s home and demand
ed an answer to the query regarding
the cause of her action. In response
came the answer that she had been
called to heaven and must get there as
soon as possible.
Taking their cue from this the offi
cers announced that they were special
escorts from the celestial regions, and
that they would carry her to the place
for which she was so strenuously pre
paring. This contented the woman,
and without an instant's hesitation she
prepared for the journey.
Was Pleased With “Heaven.” 1
When the imposing front of the Court
House dawned on the woman's sight,
the iron gates before it standing just
ajar, she burst into transports of de
light, believing that she had at last
reached the place of her desires.
“Heaven shoh is beau’ful,” she ex
claimed. "an' how clean hit am.”
Hurriedly she was escorted within
the gates and to the Court of Ordinary.
There the real interest began. Judge
Henry McAlpin and Clerk Joseph Mo
lina were both in the office, but with
out a moment's hesitation the woman
went straight to the judge and saluted
him as the eminent personage to whom
it has been given “to bind and to
loose.”
“St. Peter" was ‘‘there with the
goods," and comprehending the situa
tion at once, he asked the woman if
she had purged herself of her sins.
When she answered in the negative, he
told her that that was one of the nec
essary conditions of entrance.
Chariot Ride Was Thrown In.
The woman agreed to the purging,
whereupon Judge McAlpin informed
her that ‘a chariot ride was necessary
to make the apotheosis complete. This
suited the candidate for celestial hon
ors. Minute instructions were then
given as follows:
"Now, Elsie, you must go out and
get in the chariot,” said Judge Mc-
Alpin, "and that will drive you to the
inner gates. When you get there you
must enter not only the first door,
but the second also. Then you will
come to the bars. You must pass these
and within that room purge yourself.
The rest will come afterwards.”
The woman thanked "St. Peter” for
his minute instruction, and at once
entered the carrtage-”chariot,” and was
driven to the Jail and locked up. She
will be given her trial Wednesday. It
is supposed that the trial stands for
"the rest" that is to "come after
wards.”
On the same day the woman who is
charged wiiii burning- a small boy to
death will face Judge McAlpin. The
woman is held on a lunacy charge,
though the mother of the boy who was
burned claims that she can prove the
woman did the burning for pure
spite. i

ROBBED OF S3OO
WHILE HE SLEPT.
Stranger Reported to the roller. But
No Arrest Made.
It was reported to the police yester
day that J. D. Watt, a stritnger in
Savannah, had been robbed of $265, a
railroad pass, a pair of eyeglasses and
a number of letters Thursday night.
Watt was stopping at the boarding
house of Mrs. T. G. Heaton, at Mont
gomery and Harris streets. There was
another man occupying the same room.
When he awoke yesterday morning,
he discovered that he had been rob
bed.

low before going to sleep, he stated
to the police. When he awoke, how
ever, all his money and his roommate
were both gone.
Detective Mose Davis worked on the

BOHAN’SPAVIUON TO~
BE TRANSFERRED TO-DAY
Thunderbolt Amusement Park Prov
ing a Big Sueeess.
Mr. W. H. Labb and Mr. W. M.
Bohan spent the greater part of yes
terday at Tybee taking an inventory
of the property of the Bohan’s pa
vilion for the purchase of which Mr.
Labb is now conducting negotiations.
He believes these will be successful,
In fact, states that the papers con
cluding the bargain will be signed to
day, and that he expects to take pos
session of the property Monday.
Mr. Labb says that he represents
himself, not a company, in the deal,
and that it is his intention to estab
lish at the Bohan pavilion a number
of the same class of amusements that
have recently been inaugurated at the
Thunderbolt Casino by the Thunder
bolt Amusement Company. He will
get to work on the plans at once, so
that both the restaurant, pavilion and
the amusements will be ready for the
patronage of the public May 15.
Though the complete list of the
amusements that were planned for
Thunderbolt are not quite ready,
owing to the delay in receiving cer
tain of the materials, two of them are
open, the toboggan slide and the laugh
ing gallery, and these are receiving a
liberal patronage from visitors to the
resort. Mr. Labb believes it requires
but a spell of warm weather to make
the attendance at the park as large
as he can handle with his present out
fit.
PUBLIC EXHIBITION OF
NEW FIRE ENGINE.
Mayor Myers Was Delighted Witll
Outcome of the Test.
There was a public exhibition yes
terday morning of the new LaFrance
fire engine at Bay and Jefferson
streets. Several hundred people gath
ered to watch the display of the power
of the big engine, and the test proved
entirely satisfactory.
Mayor Myers, who was pres
ent, was pleased with the show
ing made. The engine appeared
to be all that could be desired, the
Mayor stated, so far. as he could see.
All of those who witnessed the test
appeared to be impressed with its
power. '
An inch and a quarter nozzle was
first tried. Two streams were siam
esed into one and sent through this
nozzle. The stream was first thrown
laterally and then vertically. On both
of these tests a fine showing was
made.
The stream was thrown as high as
any of the buildings in the neighbor
hood and was thrown on a level for a
great distance. Later an inch and
three-quarter nozzle was substituted
for the smaller one, and the test prov
ed equally as satisfactory.

SPECIAL POLICE
FOR CITY PARKS
SWORN IN BY MAYOR MYERS.
PARKS, SQ( ARBS AND CEMETER
IES ARE TO BE PROTECTED
FROM FLOWER THIEVES.
Under an Ordinance Passed at Last
Session of Council, Mayor Myers
Yestcrdny Swore In Several Spec
ial Officer. Who Will Watch the
Park., Squnres and Cemeterie..
Keeper of l.atirel Grove and Sec
retary to the Park and Tree Com
■nl.Kion Are Now Special Officer..
To break up the stealing of flow
ers, Mayor Myers yesterday morning
swore in a number of the employes
of the Park and Tree Commission as
special officers.
The new officers were sworn in un
der an ordinance passed at the last
session of Council, which was the re
sult of numerous complaints that flow
ers were being stolen from cemeteries,
parks and squares. The city officials
are determined to break up the steal
ing, no matter what the cost.
The beauty of the parks and squares
of the city was being impaired by
reason of these petty thefts. The po
lice department had been frequently
appealed to, and a number of arrests
had been made. But the police were
unable to watch all of the parks and
squares as closely as was desired.
Special Ordinance Passed.
It was therefore determined to cre
ate a number of special officers for
this purpose. To this end an ordi
nance was introduced at the last ses
sion of Council empowering the Mayor
to appoint the keeper of Laurel Grove
Cemetery and such employes of the
Park and Tree Commission as he saw
fit, special officers, that the parks and
squares might be protected.
The ordinance was drawn and pass
ed because of the trouble that the
keeper of Laurel Grove Cemetery had
experienced with persons taking flow
ers. He had been annoyed by ladies
more than by any others, and was at
a loss as to what course he should
pursue. He has had a great deal of
tufuble within the last few weeks
with cases of this kind.
Women Annoyed Keeper.
In several instances, he has stopped
women coming out of Laurel Grove
Cemetery with flowers and asked them
by what authority they were taking
them. The women invariably replied
that the flowers had been picked on
their own lots.
Asa matter of fact, it is against the
city ordinances for one to puli flowers
from his own lot, but Mr. Clements
did not wish to be hard on any of the
ladies, and refrained from making
cases.
Recently, however, the cases have
become so numerous and aggravated,
that he filed a complaint, which led to
the passage of the special ordinance.
Officers In Plain Clothes.
Both Mr. Clements, the keeper of
Laurel Grove, and Mr. Robertson, the
secretary to the Park and Tree Com
mission, have been constituted special
officers by the Mayor under the new
ordinance. In addition to these, sev
eral of the employes of the Park and
Tree Commission were sworn in by
Mayor Myers.
The person who plucks a flower in
any of the parks or squares, does so
now at his peril, for it is impossible
to tell who is an officer and who is
not, until the badge is shown.
The parks and squares of Savannah
are its pride, the one feature which
distinguishes it. and makes It more at
tractive than any other city in this
section, and the city officials are de
termined to protect them from petty
thieves.

Cure of Blood Poisoning Wonderful
to Relate.
I was suffering for two years with
the worst case of‘blood poison that I
ever heard of, my legs were swollen
double their normal size, so that I had
to cut the shoes off my feet. I was
unable to stand on them. Great rings
and blotches would gather on my limbs
full of blood and burst, so that I was
in such misery that I could not eat
or sleep for months. I can say with
all truth and sincerity that I was
cured of this terrible case of Wood poi
soning by taking only two bottles of
P. P. P. I am still continuing on
same on account of wishing to drive
out the least vestige of the disease
in my body, but I feel so well now,
caused by the action of the P. P. P.,
Lippman’s great remedy, that I would
not exchange my health with any man
in the ci^y.
I am so delighted and pleased with
what P. P. P. did for me that I find
the greatest of pleasure in recommend
ing it to every one, no matter what
their sickness or disease is. I have
now four different parties taking it
for four different diseases, one is ca
tarrh and one for sores and the like,
and they all declare themselves well
pleased with the • medicine. I will be
glad to show my leg to any parties
afflicted like I -was, and also the scars
that are left on my limbs. While my
appetite was entirely gone and also
sleep, I sleep and eat now like a
horse.
Truly, Lippman’s great remedy is
wonderful, and my case proves it from
beginning to end. People come in to
see me who Knew me when I was in
a terrible condition, and want to know
what has made this great change, I
tell them that it is P. P. p.. the won
derful blood remedy that I owe my cure
and they state that it is certainly a
wonderful cure. Frank Hamilton

Cbnng Chang Object, to Statement,
of Hu St Let.
His character has been injured and
his feelings damaged $5,000 worth, says
Chung Chang in the complaint in a
libel suit instituted by him in the
Superior Court yesterday.
This much he wants returned to him
as a salve for his wounded feelings by
one Hu Si Let. Mr. Simon Gazan is
attorney for the libellant.
Seven months ago, says Chung, the
Tung Wahveen Hospital in New York
asksd him to take up a subscription
among the'Savannah Chinese. Chung
collected $14.75 and forwarded it to the
hospital authorities.
Then it is that Hu Si Let began
getting busy, according to the allega
tions of the libellant. He wrote to
Lee It Yu. one of the superintendents
of the hospital, and said that Chung
had in reality collected SSO, pocketing
most of it.
But Si Let didn’t stop with that,
says Chung. He flourished his pen,
and wrote other names at the bot
tom of the letter, all supposedly testi
fying that what Si said was true. The
five whose names were signed
claim that they did not authorize the
signing, and, therefore, Chung's an
ger is all the greater.
The letter was circulated in New
Y'ork, and as Chung has friends there
it has humiliated him and injured his
feelings fully $5,000 worth, he alleges.
It has made him out a common cheat
and swindler, whereas in reality, he
claims, he is a respectable truck
farmer. *
Attached to the petition, is a copy of
the letter circulated. The letter is
written in Chinese script, and it is sup
posed that it says what it is supposed
to say. No one read it after it was
filed, though some attempted to make
it out by remembering laundry checks
and their marks.
HOW TO GET RICH.
Lesson 1. Chapter '£•
Life is filled with useless regrets..
You can't refiall the past, but you can
learn wisdom from It, and do better in
the future. One is never too old to
mend his ways, especially in the matter
of saving something for a rainy day.
There are always April showers in life;
little rain drops of trouble: they do
no harm; the great storm usually comes
after you are "gathered to your fath
ers," and the hands that made the
bread are at rest forever. Then the
home that you provided will be a more
enduring monument to your memory
than "storied urn or animated bust.”
The man who dying leaves a paid-for
home in which his lqved ones have a
shelter, (and a few thousand dollars in
life insurance to keep the wolf away
until the boys and girls are big enough
to earn something), should have the
little mound under which he rests kept
covered with nature’s choicest flowers.
Time waits not: do what should be
done while you are here to do it. In
