CAUGHT IN THE VERY ACT.
A Forged Grocery order That Work.
ed the Wrong Way.

Lila Brown. colored, was arrested yes
terday by Detectives Wetherhorn ard
Kilcy on the charge of forgery. The
woman was caught in the act, as it were.
About O'Clock she went into the grocery
store of MIR. John Lynch, at Whitaker and
Taylor streets, and presented an order
for a lot of family groceries, signed
with the name of a well-known lady.
The order was so badly written that Mr..
Lynch concluded at once that II was a
forgery. He has had experiences of this
kind before.
While the woman was waiting to have
the order filled MIR. Lynch telephoned
the police barracks ~ send a detective
to HIS place at once. Detectives Wether-
horn and kiley who were attending po-
lice court, jumped into the buggy OF
Clerk Manucy and landed at Mr.. Lynch 3
place IN short order The woman was
taken completely by surprise and began to
shout and proclaim her innocence. Her
cries did her no good, and she was soon
IN the lookup. She confessed at the bar
racks that she wrote the order and signed
the ladys name to It. She Is believed
10 be the author Of several other for
gerics from which tradesmen in that
neighborhood have suffered.

1T Is A FRIENDLY SUIT.
Foreclosure Wanted Under which

REORGANIZATION Czn be Proceeded

The suit OF the Central Trust Company
against the Central Railroad and Bank
ing Company for the purpose OF fore
closing under the consolidated OF $780,
900 mortgage is one Of friendly nature
to the property. and ii has been expected
for some time that it would be filed.
This suit. IL is understood. is in the in
terest Of the present reorganization plan,
or the one that is now being worked on
by the New York interests, and of course
1t will hardly be viewed with a friendly
eye by the Savannah and Western in
terests who are just now at daggeTs
points, so to speak. with the other in
terests involved In the property. So far
as can be determined, nothing has been
done looking TO bringing these Interests
together, but, on the contrary, the effort
Is being made, ii Is understood, to go
ahead with the plan of reorganization
without regard to the dissenters, and il is
the movement within the next few days.
or the l3,W0,OO consolidated mortgage
PONDS SS,eo0ovO are placed as a security
Tor the floating debt. The interest has
been unpaid since April l. 1892, and II is
for the holders of the floating debt that
the Central Trust Company now brings
closure decree under this mortgage un-
der which the property can be sold and re-
organized according to the agreement
that Is now being worked on. In this
agreement, 1t is understood, provision has
been made for the bondholders Of the Sa-
Vannah and Western, on the terms thar
have been frequently stated should they
desire 10 come in, otherwise the scheme
will be carried on without them.
Mr. A. r. Lawton, Jr., is just back
from New York. where he has been in
consultation for some time with those in
terested in the floating debt. 1t is under
stood that practically all arrangements
for the necessary extension of the float
ing debt have been made, the final and
definite agreement has not yet been made
The reason IL is deemed necessary to Sc
cure this foreclosure on the 81. 900, 600
mortgage in order to have a basis for a
complete carrying out of the plan of re-
organization that is to be formed is
that the foreclosure on the tripartits
mortgage in favor of the Farmers Loan
and Trust Company. as trustee is tied
up by the appeal of the Southwestern
Railroad Company holding it liable for
one-third Of the bonds issued under this

THE TRIP FROM TYBEE.
Flight of the HOming Pigeons From
the MartelIO Tower.


The trip of DR.. George H. Stones homing
pigeons from the Martello tower on Ty-
bee Island was made yesterday morning
in 50 minutes. The distance is computed
to be about fourteen miles. The birds
were released from the tower at l1:23
clock yesterday morning. They circled
around the tower for a while and then
alighted on 1t again. 1t was 11:33 O. clock
when they made the second start. There
we're seven of them in all, and they started
out in the direction of Thunderbolt and
afterward turned IN toward the city, ar
irving at their loft at DR.. Stones resi-
dence at 1905 o'clock. This time is con-
sidered very good for birds as young as
these are, though they can do much better
when they become more accustomed to
long flights. Their next trip will be from
some point in the neighborhood of War
saw Sound. They will be taken down on
the Vigilant, when she goes down on the
physicians excursion and released some
twenty or twenty-five miles from their

The sydney Breaks q Record.

The Pacific Mail steamer City Of
Sydney has established new
ocean record in making the run
from Acapulco TO San Francisco
in FIVE days, nineteen hours and
thirty-threa seconds. This is more
than half a day less than the best
previously recorded time. Acs-
pulco is 1886 miles from San
Francisco, so that an average speed
of 1916 knots an hour was made.
In the early sixties fast voyages
were made along the coast to San
Francisco, but never was there any
vessel that touched this record
made by the City of Sydney. The
steamer Golden City was the great
est ship afioat for speed in those
days, and in command of Captain
Lapidge, made the run from Aca-
pulco to San Francisco in six days
and seven hours. Before that, the
Montana, Captain Parker, made it
in six days and nine hours. The
City of Sydney has always been re-
gsrded as a reliable ship but was
never given credit for any great
speed power. She was laid up
about one year ago and thoroughly
overhauled and repaired and has
been once since then on the dock.
She was built by John Roach &
Son st Chester, Pa. in 1875. and is
an iron. screw steamer of 1865 tons
net. Her length is $50 feet,
breadth of beam 400 feet, and
depth of hold 20 5 feet.

Bicycle Wheels.

It is not rs generally understood as II
should be, perhaps, that bicycle wheels
seldom or never are subjected to lateral
strains. They need to resist only those
strains which pass through their own
plane, and in this plane only have they
any strength worth speaking of. This is
worth remembering when the use of
wheels of this type is being considered
for three or four wheeled vehicles, where
the conditions are essentially different,
and where, in turning corners rapidly,
or In going over ground that causes the
vehicle to be inclined sideways, a very
considerable lateral strain may be
brought upon the wheels-a strain
which the ordinary bicycle wheel is,
very properly, entirely untitled for.
This is to be considered also in connec.
tion with devices for attaching two bi.
cycles side by side to make duplex, OF
four wheeled machine, Of them. Neither
the frame, the bearings nor the wheels
Of a properly constructed bicycle are
adapted to such use without injury. -

BROKEN HEARTS IN FRANCE.
Held Of Less Account by the Law Thar
Broken LeRs.

In no instance does the profound diff
ference Of national character in England
and France appear more striking, says
our Paris correspondent, than in the
views held on both sides Of the channel
regarding breach Of promise. OF course
engagements are broken off in France
as we'll as in England, but II Is only in
England that heavier damages are
awarded for a broken heart than for q
broken leg. The offense is all but un-
known in the French law courts,
whether it is that Frenchmen are less
inclined to it or that the French girl
dislikes bringing her sentimental trou-
bles into court. To show English read
ers how incredibly prejudiced French
persons of both sexes are upon this SUBJ
ject 1t is enough to say that young
lady who attempted to turn her wound
ed feelings into cash would be regarded
as only degree less mean than the
faithless man.
The very small number of suits for
breach of promise have always been
supported by plea that the lady was
put to expense, and there must be be-
sides evidence Of an intent to deceive.
Damages in any case are very small be-
side the royal amounts awarded by Eng
lish juries. Recently an action for
breach of promise a l'Anglaise was
brought into the Third Paris police
court. The lady and her father, as near
est friend, produced bill showing that
they We're ESQ out of pocket for the
broken engagement They might have
had this; hut, badly advised, they put
on another item of e350 for the moral
prejudice. The French Judge did not
understand this, and he dismissed the
