Dress Suits-Why is it that so many
men look uncomfortable in dress suit? It's
because they are uncomfortable. Because

afternoon, which was as much caricature
of and outrage upon myself as it was upon
Mayor Schwarz. am not in the habit of
permitting statements and language to be
published as coming from myself without
revision by myself before publication. Il
is sufficient to say that the article puts
words in my mouth which did not come
from it, and was never seen by me until its
appearance in the paper. No such put lica-
ton would have been countenanced or al

Impaired digestion is a fertile cause of nerve

ably benefited by sedative, when it is pro-

efficacious for malaria, rheumatism, constipa-

q. -. Moore'S staten ent in Regard to
Rogers Condition.
j. B. Moore, who was with Joseph Rogers
and Charles Abel on Tybee beach when
Rogers was drowned Saturday morning,
says that he tried to persuade him not to go
into the water, as the current was very
treacherous and he did not think that
Rogers could take care Of himself Rogers
said he was good swimmer and could
take care of himself all right, and stated
his determination of going in to battle
Moore says that Rogers had previously
been on spree, but at the time of the oc-
currence did not appear to be under the
influence of liquor to any great extent, and
under the circumstances Moore thought
that he ran no very great danger, partic-
ularly as he had stated he was good swim
mer. He did not think anything more of
Rogers going into the water after having
previously advised him not to do so.

The CITY Fathers.

The street car and dummy line or
dinance has become a law.
The board has wisely decided to do
some grading on Main, Market and
Roam streets, and will spend $500 on
each street, which, if properly applied
will make decided improvement in
the streets.
When the records were burned the
ordinances were destroyed and the
board is now looking around for any
thing it can find in the shape OF an
ordinance and wishes it had had them
printed at first. The new ones will be
published.
The building and sidewalk ordi-
nance was not passed too soon. The
walks must be one-ffth the width OF
the street and constructed by the
property owners, and all plans for new
buildings or improvements must be
submitted to the building committee
for approval. The ordinance also es-
tablishes building line.
