John Meeker and his wife, Winifred,
are still in Jail here, under the charge
of stealing 50 600 from the father of the
latter Just before his death. An account
of the arrest was given in the MORNING
News yesterday.
AS the onense is claimed to have been
committed near Ridgeland, =. c., at the
home of MIR. Woods Mrs Mceker s
father, and the warrants were sworn out
by j. 5. Woods before Justice Sauls OF
that place. the two will be taken back
there to answer TO the charge They will
probably be taken TO Ridgeland to-mor-
row.
The death Of the father occurred last
January at which time it is alleged
about 600 in bills gold and silver was
stolen Mr. and Mrs Meeker were
charged, however, with the larceny Of
only 50 600, which was in bills and one of
the sons claimed he had seen this amount
In trunk, and that it had disappeared
lust after the old mans death.
None of the parties in the case live in
Savannah, with the exception Of Mr.. and
Mrs Meeker. who moved here four or
tive months ago, shortly after the fathers
death.
Mrs Meeker's children, of whom there
are eight, were at Justice McDermott's
Office yesterday to see if their mother
could not be released from Jail. Nothing
could be done, however. and they went
away disheartened. One of them is
girl Of II, while the others are small chill

THE HOT SPELL COOLED OFF.
The Weather Takes a Turn Down for a
Day or Two

The weather cooled off yesterday and
the day was as comfortable June day as
could be asked for. The storm which the
weather bureau in Florida night before
last predicted had a cooling effect.
A heavy breeze sprang up about mid
night night before last and brought
relief to the people who had been suffer
ing from the intense heat of the
day before. People at the resorts, who
had been longing for breeze, got it, and
they nearly shivered with the coolness
after the heat that preceded the sudden
drop in temperature.
The Florida storm was felt here only in
its effect of lowering the temperature and
in the stiff breeze.
The mean temperature for the
day was slightly below the nor
NAL. The highest during the day was
81, and the lowest was 72o, the mean
temperature being a degree below the
normal. Savannah was the coolest place
in the Savannah district of the cotton
belt. Albany reported l04'. the same as
the day before. Cordele reported 1902
and cambridge 1907 Americus and
There may be some few changes, how
ever, to-day.
