TO EXCUSE BoNDsMEN.
A Petition to the Legislature to Relieve the
Bondsmsn Of the Late County Treasurer.

A Petition to the Legislature to Relieve the
BOndsmsn Of the Late County Treasurer.
A petition was circulated about the
nlty yesterday, addressed to the state
legislature, and asking that body to
excuse and relieve the estate and the
bondsmen of the late county treasurer,
Hon. John p. Lamb, from responsible
lty for the county monies deposited by
the said official in the Oglethorpe and
State banks, the failure of which
caused the county to lose the money.
The county commissioners have is
sued executions against the estate and
the four bondsmen for the amount
which was on deposit-about $1,000.
The petition sets forth that the official
was certainly not responsible for the
loss of the monies, as the banks were
regarded as strong institutions, one
being a state depository. 1t also al
leges that the estate of the dead official
is not worth over $4,000, and that the
bondsmen are unable to stand good
for the balance of the amount.
The petition was generally signed.
1t will be presented to the legislature
at the beginning of the next session
by Representative j. w. Bennett.

The clerks of the Oglethorpe are
wearing broad grin; the bell boys
and the walters are in ecstacy; the
porter's face is irradiate with Joy +; all
over the city there are indications that
something good has happened. The
unforgotten accents of "Oh, / don't

streets. Ed. Player is in town; and
the lubrlcatlng powers of the oils that
he sells are not superior to the laugh

that he tells.

PEENBY's FOOT RACE.


Police Commissioner John P. Feeney
distinguished himself yesterday afternoon
by capturing what was supposed to be a
dangerous thief 1t is not the Commits
sioner's fault that his prisoner turns out
to be a harmless laborer who while look
ing for work became frightened and ran
away.
The prisoner was William Riley and ne
halls from Philadelphia. Shortly before
three o'clock yesterday afternoon he
asked man who was standing at Wash
ington and Montgomery streets for
money with which to get something to
eat.
Riley was taken into saloon, given a
drink and told to help himself to the
free lunch.
He was loading himself with the good
things when his newly found friend
thought to have some fun with him.
Riley became frightened, bolted out by a
side door, and started across Washington
street toward York
Some one shouted stop thiefw and in
a few minutes about one hundred men
and boys We're after the fugitive. Com
missioner Feeney was on Montgomery
street, between Washington and Greene
Seeing the crowd running toward York
street he ran to Greene and through to
York street. At the corner he hailed a
cabman and directed him to drive after
the fugitive. The cabman whipped up
his sleepy horses and wild chase began.
The fugitive was overtaken at the Post
office.
Commissioner Feeney bundled his man
into the cab and in short order landed
him in cell at the Gregory street sta
ton. The Commissioner was well winded
by his run and looked as though he had
taken an unexpected bath. He was con-
graduated upon his capture. When Riley
was arraigned this morning, and the cir
cumstances were explained Mr.. Feeney
felt that he had taken a lot of needless
trouble.
Riley was held by Justice Potts for a
further hearing. His reputation is to be
looked up.
Commissioner Feeney has made so
many lucky arrests that he has earned
the title of Johnny on the Spot"

tIOn. d the New Work.

A Post of the Church Army is soon
to be established in Jersey City if
suitable location can be secured. The
work in this city, which is being carried
on in the rooms of the st. Andrews
Workingmen's Association, in Armory
Hall, at the Junction, is in charge of
Lieutenants w. ]. Fitch and Carl Olde-
orp. A. Clements president of the asso-
citation, and Mrs. Collard, the two
members of st. Johns Episcopal Church
who secured the permission of DR.. Stod-
dard to try the experiment of holding
church army meetings in the parish, be-
lieve that there is field for larger eff
forts and are pushing through the scheme
to establish post in Lafayette. There
is no Protestant Mission at present in
that section. 1t is said that Mr.. Stod-
dard will give his consent to the es-
tablishment of permanent post here,
although when the subject was broached
to him by General Hadley, six months
ago, he withheld his sanction.
The work in the association rooms has
prospered The crowd, however, have
not been as large as they would had it
not been necessary to climb long flight
of stairs to reach the rooms. If a new
hall is secured it will be on the ground
floor and on a principal thoroughfare.

ST. PAUL LOWERS HER RECORD

NEW YORK, Sept. /, 1Ss7.-A cable
gram announces that the American Line
steamer st. Paul, Captain Jamison, which
sailed from New York last Wednesday,,
August 25, clearing the bar at 1:33 A.
M. and the lightship twenty minutes
later, arrived at Southampton this fore
noon, passing Hurst Castle, twenty miles
below Southampton, at $40 this morning.
According to these figures, if the time
is taken at the Needles, twenty-three
miles from Southampton, the point at
which records are reckoned, the st. Paul
has made the passage in about days u
hours and z minutes. This time lowers
the eastward record made on her last
trip, ending August II, by about one
and a half hours and comes within a
few minutes over an hour of the best
eastward record, held by the Hamburg
Liner Fuerst Bismarck, which is 6 days
10 hours and 55 minutes.
On the last eastward trip of the st.
Paul, ending August II, she lowered her
best previous eastward time by about an
hour.
