DEPUTY BABCOCK EXPLAINS.
He Says the Destruction of the Com
missioners' Fish Was Proper.

He Says the Destruction of the Com
mssioners' Fish Was Proper.
Deputy Fish Commissioner Babcock is
not pleased with the reflections cast upon
him on account of the destruction of fish
evidence in criminal cases pending before
the counts. The complaint was that cer-
tain fish seized as evidence and stored in
a cold storage place on Clay street had
been ordered destroyed by Mr.. BaDcock
before the cases were heard in the Superior
Court ma king it necessary to dismiss the
cases. Mr.. Babcock, in explaining his
position in the matter, produced the
following letter:
Merchants Ice and Cold Storage ompany s1s
Clay Street-GENTLEMEN: Your favor OF 23d at
hand. We forwarded you copy OF the game
laws In the matter OF evidence stored by you
for our deputies we desire TO extend TO you
our thanks Your assistance and kindness
are fully apprecie ted. We should have ad-
vised you some time ago that you may destroy
all packages you now hold Tor any of our men.
The cases have ali been disposed OF and we no
longer require the evidence; If any OF your
men can make any personal use Oh the hsh
and game you hold for US you may let them
do so.
We have 10 knowledge of Mr.. Mogan's evil
dence in your hands, but as he is no longer an
officer of the County he probably has no use
Tor the evidence. Yours respectfully,
CALIFORNIA FISH COMMISSION,
By John P. Babcock, Chief Deputy.
''The fish and game that L ordered de-
stroyed," said Mr.. Babcock, was evil
dence in cases that the State Fish Com
missioners' deputies had before the courts
and which had all been decided by the
accused parties pleading guilty or being
found guilty. Some were smissed by
the court, but all were old cases. As to
Mr.. Mogan's cases, l know nothing about
them. At the time l wrote that letter he
was not the Fish Warden of this City, as
shown by a decision of the court when he
tried to get the salary he supposed was
due him. 1t was nor~until a month later
that he was reappointed. The cold
storage people wanted to know about the
keeping of the evidence in their pre- mises
and | wrote as this letter shows. The ref
erence TO Mogan's stuff in storage was
made incidentally and was without weight
so far as l was concerned. A little later
the coId-storage people told me that they
had raised muss in destroying Mogan's

MRS. GAREY'S SATISFACTION

Compelled Her Husband to Withdraw
His Objectionable Allegations.
Mrs. Frances B. Carey has had the salts
faction OF compelling her husband to re.
tract some of his unfavorable remarks
concerning her conduct.
Some time ago Charles K. Carey came
to this City and obtaired position as
salesman in a clothing-store. After liv-
ing in the State a sufficient length of time
he sued his wife for a divorce on the
ground OF desertion, and incidentally re
hected on her good name in a way that
she wouIu have resented at the time il she
had been cognizent of his charges.
As the lady was in st. Louis and as
service was obtained by publication she
heard nothing of the proceedings until
the divorce was\ granted, Mr.. Carey hav-
ing everything his own way.
Several days since Mrs. Carey made her
appearance in the City and at once en-
gagged Attorney James A. tephsns to look
| into the matters alleged in her usband' ;
| COM plant. She insisted that he had sworn
falsely against her, and at her instance a
! warrant was issued for his arrest on a
! charge OF perjury.
| The beginning of the end of the litiga-
| tion was Witnessed in Judge Hebbard' 8
court yesterday when the divorce proceed
ings were reopened by the setting aside of
the decree, whereupon tie plaintiff filed
an amended complaint, in which all OBJ
! iectionabe features were eliminated and
the specifications set forth actions on the
part of the defendant, which indicated
| that she was jealous of other women, on
| whom she mad accused her husband of be-
slowing his affections.
This change in the pleadings met the
views of both sides to the controversy,
and it is probable that no further opposi-
ton will be offered to the granting of the
| divorce

The career of city is as the life of an
individual. made up of numberiess niue
things that are of minor Importance III
themselves, but when taken in connection
and as links in a chain of circumstances
they possess value that is not to be dis
carded. But of the thousands of every day
happenings there are, of course. many OF
no significance. and it is perhaps more
the conditions which exist as a general re
suit of these small things that should be
taken as the pulse of the living corporate
body Causes produce these conditions,
however, and while further on and in va
rious other parts of this paper will be
found many circumstances arising second
ly from conditions get the object of this
article is to recount in brief the successive
steps that have placed Brunswick in the
position that it now occupies.
1t is not the intention of the writer to
burden his readers with blocks of history,
much of which has been, from time to
time, printed. but to show the Brunswick
of today; to tell of its advantages as
place of business and residence; to dc this
without renouncing the well merited titles
or historic charms. The city has superior
advantages to offer the health-secker, bus
-iness-f44tft- -e7ttrftdftst, THd II IS 10 this
end that it advises the world of these
advantages. -----~--~'"
-~r-na growth of brunswick has not been
rapid. but its progress has been of per
manent and substantial order
The Industrial and manufacturing enter
prises have added largely TO the wealth ana
growth of brunswick in addition to its
vast export and import trade.
No city in Georgia can boast of Il better
class Of laboring men than can be found
in this city. They are thrifty prudent ana
economical and are not disturbed by the
ordinary conditions which make labor an
uncertain element in n community. No err
ror is committed when Brunswick is ranked
among the progressive cities of the south,
for its advantages are inferior to none and
its future possibilities are so beautifully
foreshadowed Its citizens speak of the city
as the cite of coming industrial enterprises,
market in all civilized countries; its insti-
tutions of learning, churches, and lovely
homes.

Ddu Ouoll GALLO u AIOu VOIV ILL.,
ihgton last night with a bill in his
pocket ready to introduce on Tues.
day. The bill is not long and yet
has been drawn only after most
careful consideration of the pro.
visions of existing law relative tc
the payment Of real estate taxes
Taxes upon real property now be-
come delinquent on June l, wher
a penalty of 10 per cent attaches
and on Jan.1 following another
penalty of 5 per cent is added
Mr.. Shells bill proposes that hall
the amount of taxes assessed shall
be paid before June l and the 9th:
Ell half Nov. l. This places a por.
ton of the burden Of taxation at {
time when farmers and business
men generally are apt to have
money with which to meet them
The bill further provides that il
no portion Of the tax is paid by
June l a penalty OF l per cent {
month shall be added up t(
Nov. l, and then 5 per cent shall
be added. This makes the penalt,
for total delinquency II per cent
instead Of 10 per cent,as under tn
present law, but it graduates i
during the first six months of IT,
delinquent period,so as to make /
an inducement for taxpayer t.
settle with the county treasurer a
soon as he has the money. Unde
the present law,if taxes are allowed
to run over June l,there is gener
ally no attempt to pay them unit
the following December,in time t.
save the second penalty.-Pionee
