A Prominent Professor Speaks About the
Threatening Things Abroad at This
Time of the Year.
1T is surprising how many people are sui.
fering TO- day from so-called coughs colds and
Influenza"
The remark was made by a very prominent
professor, connected with one Of the leading
New York hospitals. Continuing he said;
1T is not these things that are troubling
people, but it is an advanced form of our old
enemy, the grip. People feel out Of sorts.
sneeze, have pains in the muscles and bones,
have no appetite, lose all interest in the world
and wonder what is the matter. 1t is the grip
nothing else.
NOW. all such symptoms need to have
prompt treatment The attack must be met
and repealed at once, or 1t Is certain to run
INTO something serious. l know OF but one
way to certainly avoid these troubles which
are now so common. and that is, TO imme-
d1ately counterfeit them by using a good
pure strong stimulant. Nothing of the Ordi-
nary kind but something pure and scientific
For this purpose nothing has ever equaled
Duny's Pure Malt Whiskey, which is ac-
tihc people TO be the only pure, medicinal
malt whiskey upon the market"
The words Of the professor are true and
they carry wonderful meaning to many
men and women who are suffering with the
nrst symptoms OF grip, or else grip in its ad-
vanced stages. For all such people we offer
word OF advice which is to take the best
means to overcome these troubles and do not
permit any dealer to swerve you from your
purpose to have that which has proven itself
by years OF use, to be the best ana purest
stimulant in the world.

MRS. LEASE APT TO WIN.
The State Supreme Court Issues Re-
straining Order.


straining Order,
Topeka, Kan, Jan. 4.-Hostilities were
begun anew in the Lewelling-Lea i'm
broglio this morning, the governor having
persisted in Mrs Leases removal regard
less of the statute which states plainly
that he has not the power to remove her.
All efforts toward etfecting compromise
have been discontinued, and the papers,
which have been ready since Monday,
were filed in the supreme court this morn
ing in the case of Mrs. Lease against j.
w. F'reeborn, her would-be successor
The court issued restraining order for
bidding Mr. Freeman from acting or at
tempting to act as member of the
board and from interfering in any way
with Mrs. Leases acting as member of
the board, or depriving her of any of the
rights of the Office. Gov. Lewelling said
this morning that he was no longer a
party to the case, and that il now re
manned for the courts to determine
whether Mr.. Freedom or Mrs. Lease was
entitled to the Office He ventured the
opinion, however, that the Injunction
granted would not hold, but qualified this
assertion by saying: There is no telling,
however, what the court win do.n
Mrs. Lease is in Ossawatomie to-day
with the board, and it is thought that
service can be obtained on Mr.. Freedom
there tonight.

son, the president Of the Suwaunee Canal
Company, is again in charge of the con-
struction of the canal. Mr., Jackson has
had charge of the work from its begin
ming. He hopes TO complete II some time
this year. His headquarters are az Camp
Corneia, which was named in honor Of
Capt Jackson's daughter. The camp Is
about ten miles west Of Eolkston. Mr..
Jackson's Office aud the house occupied by
him as a dwelling are comfortably
arranged The large force Of hands en-
ployed by the company occupy very COM
Portable shanties In the quarters The
camp is in the western part OF the Okee-
finokee swamp. The canal begins near
the camp and extends several miles
toward the ST. Mary's river. When com
pleted 1t will reach the river at the near
est point, and thus partially drain the
swamp In order 10 thoroughly drain the
swamp it will be necessary to construct
small tributary canals. The total cost OF
the construction Of the main canal cannot
easily be Appropriated.
MIR. jackson has the best facilities for
accomplishing his work with dispatch.
The company will, upon the completion
of the work, establish several large saw
mill plants on the st. Marys river. A
large force Of hands will be employed in
getting out the timber. The timber will
be dragged TO the canal by means Of huge
chains, drawn by steam power. The
work is one Of the most gigantic under
takings ever attempted in Southern
Georgia. If the plan is successful 1t viii

a NEW JOCKEY CLUE.
Its Purpose is to Purify and Elevate
Horse Racing.

Horse Racing.
New York, Jan. 4.-America will
shortly have new jockey club, the pur-
pose of which will be to purify and ele-
vate horse racing, if present indications
prove true. At meeting at the Hoffman
house tonight, in which large mum Der
of the leading lights of the American turf
participated, the preliminary steps
were taken by the drawing up of a rough
plan and the appointment of a committee
whose duty is the organization OF such a
club. On Dec. 81, a committee was ap-
pointed by prominent horsemen, at a
meeting at the Hoffman house to present
some plan for the organization of club
This committee consisted of
James r. Keene, ex-officio chairman,
Perry Belmont, J. o. Bonner,
Col. Jacob Rupert, Jr., DIR. j. l..
Knapp. David Gideon, Col. w. p. Thomp-
son and Edward Kelly. This committee
has held several meetings with the board
of control and several race course owners
in this vicinity, and this afternoon held
another to submit their report. At the
meeting were the leading racing men of
the east.
CALLED TO ORDER By J. R. KEENE.
The meeting was called TO order shortly
after 5 O'Clock by James h. Keene. who
acted as chairman. In presenting the re.
port, Mr.. Keene said that the committee
had spent much time in considering the
subject and had at last decided that the
formation of club would be of benefit to
the racing interests of the country To
the committee, he said, had been dele
gated the power to devise some scheme of
organization.
The committee had had conferences
with the board of control and had also
been in conference with race track owners
and officials. 1t had been suggested that
the desired result could be accomplished
by the enlargement of the board of con-
troll. The report seemed to favor this
plan and deemed it advisable to form a
jockey club with a membership limited to
fifty, the members to be reputable horse
men,
THE ORGANIZERS.
Attached to the report were the names
of fourteen persons, who. by resolution,
will act as the organizers of the Jockey

unanimous vote, the powers of organiza-
ton were vested with the above named
persons and the committee of seven was
discharged.
Col. Brewster, secretary of Washington
Park, Chicago, made inquiry if the pro-
poseo club would take in only the imme-
date vicinity, or the south and west as

Chairman Keene announced that it
would not. He said it would take the
clubs in New York, Brooklyn, Coney
Island and Monmouth park, in fact, the

AT THE THEArER.
Marie Wainwright and Her Co mpany
in MAN and Wife"


in Man and Wife"
Miss Marie Wainwright and her COM
pany played "Man and Wife, to a
large audience last night. The story of
the play is somewhat after the style of
the romances to be found in the weekly
"family's story papers, which Milton
Mobiles so clearly reproduces in the
"PhGnix." There is trusting woman
wronged by soulless villain, who is a
nobleman's son, but it all works out right
in the end.
Miss Wainwright had splendid OPP
portunities, which she made the most OF, ,
TO demonstrate her abilities as an emo
tional actress. So completely did she
win the sympathies of her auditors that
many of them probably felt like going on
the stage and cheating the paralysis of
its victim, the heavy villain. And the
villain was villainously clever. He
smoked his pipe-why do villains always
smoke7-and asked for a match in the
presence of heart about to burst into
smithereens with highly compressed and
as cool indifference as If he went
out and smashed few hearts after each
meal by way of promoting digestion.
Everybody was gratiied when he came
on looking jaundiced, and everybody was
delighted when his plot to have his beau
tiful wife murdered failed, and he fell
down dead that is, everybody was de-
lighted except the heroine. The climax
left her with a dead husband and no
prospect of successor more worthy of
her
Takensaltogether and considered from
every standpoint, the play was success.

HOWARD SENTENCED.
Ten Years and Nine Months and Fine
of 81, 800 His Punishment.

- VA3CNN N~--Hs . N-1A1AAA~oss
jackson, Tenn, Jan. 4.-The proceed
ings in the famous Howard case came to
a close to-day, the final action being the
sentence Of the defendant TO a fine of ST.
800 and ten years and nine months inn
prisonment
The entire day was consumed by the
defense in arguing the motion for new
trial and arrest of Judgment. Dr. How
ard asked the courts permission to make
a speech in his own behalf Judge Ham
mond replied that it was not customary
for man convicted of an infamous crime
TO argue his own case. Such a thing. he
said, was rarely ever heard of. and espec-
tally when he had counsel to represent
him. The court said, however in this
instance, he would deviate from the rule
and permit the defendant 10 speak. DR..
Howard then took the stand, and con-
sumed the entire afternoon in plea for a
new trial and an arrest Of judgment.
The court overruled the motion, and
sentenced the defendant as follows
First, that he be hned $500 and impris-
oned Ia the Ohio penitentiary AT Colum-
bus, o.. for term Of eighteen months.
The sentence on each of the remaining
seven counts was 500 fine and thirteen
months Imprisonment.

the park, are dying more rapidly than
the Others, and in a few years they must
necessarily disappear unless steps are
taken to save them.
"A GREAT amount of damage Is done,n
aaid a gentleman yesterday, ''by the unin-
teIIipent and inexperienced labor that is
ST1-Toved to trim the trees. This applies to
tbe trees not only in the park, but all over
the CITY. Instances are known when the
ioyyer branches are cut of some distance
instead of saving very close 10 the trunk.
The IabOrers leave, say two feet of the
branch. and then do not make it clean
emf, but saw through and break it of.
The life of a tree so trimmed will be short.
Had the branch been properly cut close to
the tree and the exposed portion covered
with a coating consisting chiefly of wax
and rosin the tree would thrive.
Ordinarily said the gentleman, "95
per cent of the trees planted should
i've. but in Savannah this num-
her does not exceed 30 per cent.
he benefited if "a rope were put
around the grass plats in winter and the
nublic kept of the ground where the
leaves should be allowed to remain and
invigorate the soil.
Savannahians have ceased to walk
across the squares and greens since the
fine was made SO for each offense, but
this does not seem to apply in the park,
where it is so greatly needed.
The trees in front of many of the hand
some residences in the city are being left
without care. 1T is surprising said an
adrnirer of Savannah's trees, that such a
thing is allowed by the owners of the
property. Horses are either hitched to a
tree or to a post, if there is one nearby.
The bark is bitten of by the horse, and in
short time the sap is killed and the tree
dies and becomes an unsightly thing Sa-
vannah is rightly termed the Forest City
of the South, but it cannot be for long, if
more attention is not given to the preser-
walton of its trees. Many cities have the
control of this department in the hands
of a commission composed of men famil-
lar with tree planting and their care, cit
les which have less beauty than Savan-
nah and with the natural growth far
smaller"
trees and serpen tine walks, is the most
unique and attractive spot in the city and
its preservation is a matter of concern to
every Savannabian.

WEST vIRaINIA's DEBT.
A Plan of Settlement Proposed BY the
Adjustment Committee.


Adjustment Committee.
Baltimore, Jan. 4.-The directors Of the
adjustment company which was organ
lied by the Mercantile Trust and Deposit
Company, of Baltimore, to effect settle
ment of the West Virginia state debt,
have prepared plan of settlement, which
has been submitted to the advisory
board of the creditors of West Virginia
The adjustment coIhpany's directors are:
Messrs. John Gill and Mai Richard M.
Venable, of Baltimore, United States
Senator Eppa H0nton and James b. Pace,
of Virginia, and Col r.. p. Chew, of
West Virginia.
The advisory board of creditors is made
up of Charles Francis Adams, of Massa-
chusetts, ex-Gov. William Pinckney
Whyte, Of Maryland, and Maj, Holmes
Conrad, of Virginia.
The plan of settlement is contained in a
long letter which has been addressed to
the advisory board. In part it says;
West Virginia does not recognize any duty
or obligation in this behalf, except 20 Viz
ginia, hence these creditors can never real
ize anything from eitherstate until Virginia
has agreed with West Virginia respecting the
amount to be paid by West Virginia as her
portion OF the debt incurred before the old
1t is believed that on correct principles
West Virginia owes to Virginia more than
$40 10000 but 1t is evidently impossible to
suggest the amount at which this indebted
ness will be compromised when the repre-
sentattyes Of the two states come together.
The plan Of settlement we submit is as
followBs-
/. The adjustment company win offer to
surrender all the certificates which may be
deposited under the agreement of Oct. 16,
1903 in exchange for such an amount of new
bonds or other avails as West Virginia pro-
IN har Nf fboi a.
terState debt. sf'-s
2. A tender Of all,the deposited certificates
shall accompany petition 10 the legislature
OF Virginia to authorize a committee TO bring
about a settlement with West Virginia.
3. All questions touching the apporton-
ment OF the new bonds, or ayails, between
the different classes of certificates shall
be determined by tribunal OF three; one to
be appointed by the advisory board. one to be
appointed by the adjustment company and
the third to be appointed by the two thus
chosen.
ANY vacancy in this tribunal shall be filed
by the party respectively appointing.
