TO TALK UP GOOD ROADS.
The Truck Growers to Discuss the
Matter Next Month.

The Chatham County Truck Growers
Association held its July meeting at the
court house yesterday morning The
meeting was an enthusiastic one, but the
attendance was not as large as expected,
and, for that reason, the discussion of the
good roads question from the truck grow
ers' standpoint was not taken up.
The truck growers have some good,
practical ideas on this line, and they
want to put them forward The question
Of good roads in this county is, perhaps,
of more importance to them than to any
other class of people. A committee of
five was appointed by the president. Mai.
G.. NJ. Ryals to draft suitable resolutions
when they are presented at the
next monthly meeting it is expected
TO have out large attendance
for their discussion. The committee con-
sists of Nessrs. G. r. G. Fell, b. s.
Wells, G. =. Kossignol NJ. L. Exley and
Capt. Henry Blum. The work of the com
mittee will be to collect information on
the subject Of good roads and drainage
and to make certain recommendations, of
which the association will take cOgni-
zance, and which, in part or whole, they
may present TO the grand Jury.
Secretary M. l.. Exley reported that,
In accordance with the resolution passed
at the last meeting he had sent out 100
circulars to the different growers of truck
in the county, requesting them to fill the
blanks with information as TO the esti-
mated aggregate number of acres planted
in truck by each for the northern and
local markets. So far, he said, re
plies had been received to sixty
three of these circulars, in which
the total acreage reported was
100 acres The average was about u *
acres per each planter. There were
about thirty-seven more of the planters to
hear from, which will increase the acre
age considerably, though it may not in
crelse the average.
The association is in a good financial
condition and has large membership It
is a factor of considerable consideration

ningham, Jr.
Judge MacDonell asked the committee
whether any changes were desired in the
present mode Of assigning cases, upon
which point the committee had not made
any report. The present mode is to call
the docket and take judgment where
there is no appearance by the defendant.
When the cases are announced for trial,
or motion is made for continuance,
the Judge sets the cases for trial
filing up each day of the term. the
mode in many places is to have a call of
the docket every Friday afternoon, when
it is announced all the cases between GER
tain members will be assigned for trial
during the following week. In this way
much time is often saved and more of tIe
days in each term are taken up. The
committee will take this matter under
consideration. The rule reported win
probably be ordered entered on the min
utes by Judge MacDoneQ.

THEY HAVE BEEN INDICTED.
Slot Machine Operators VIII Answer
to thel City Court.


IF the prosecution makes out a case,
there is no.doubt that the slot machine
will soon be thing of the past, in Savan-
nah at least, unless it is run in the back
alleys, as are the policy lotteries at pres
emit.
The grand jury of the city court indicted
fourteen of the propretors of slot ma
chimes at yesterday afternoons session.
II was believed by many that the indict-
ments would not be found. Tue grand
Jury took the same view of the case,
parties are charged with a misdemeanor
under the gambling laws OF the state.
No arrests have yet been made, and the
names Of those indicted were not given out
for publication. The arrests will proba-
bly, all be made to-day and the parties
will give bond
1t will be remembered that Kolshorn
Bros. stated some time ago that they
would make a test case of the matter
That was when the talk about
indicting the proprietors of the ma
chimes was first taken up. Mr.. w. r.
Leaken was engaged on the case, and he
takes issue with the solicitor general
that the device is prohibited under the
state laws. The solicitor general, how
ever, did not want one test case but
indicted all the parties against whom he
had evidence No DOUBT there win be
some surprises when the indictments are
served.

charge of assaulting and beating Willis

Supt Clement Saussy of tho Tybee

eral times brought to stop in
this way, and it was seen that
it would be dangerous TO run rapidly, as
the sudden pull on the air brakes rope
when the train is going twenty-five or
thirty miles an hour is liable to cause the
train to break in two, or the engine to
break loose from it. Efforts made to stop
the pulling OF these ropes were useless on
account Of the crowds on the train, and
