Settled Their Difficulties With Fists

Ed Lenhoff and John Jones had a diff
ference at the corner Of First and Los
Angeles streets yesterday afternoon,
and started to settle in a manner that
might be termed brutal by the humane
society. Jones had just bartered black
eye for bloody nose drawn at sight
when Sergeant Morton put in an appear
ance and arrested the belligerents. At
the police station they were charged
with disturbing the peace.

ropAY's COUNCIL MEETING
Several Important Matters and Muct
Routine to Be Considered

In 10 Ill uIQSudl ciilOuit VA
routine business which has been in the
hands of committees for some time. the
city council today will consider several
matters which cannot be considered as
routine One of them is the approval Of
the contract and bonds for the delivery
to the city Of five lots Of fire hose Of 1000
feet each from as many companies in
this city. These bonds have been filed
in the clerks Office during the past week.
and today they will be referred to the
finance committee for examination. If
this reference is made at the morning
session, the committee may report In the
afternoon, so that the hose will be de-
livered as soon as possible.
In the matter Of the application Of the
receiver of the Temple street cable rail-
way for permission to surrender por-
tion of the franchise of that company, 1t
Is expected that the petition will be
withdrawn. This will settle the matter
for the present. The election Of tenn
porary successor to ex-Director J. F..
Adams of the board Of education may be
mentioned, but 1t is not considered prob
able that an election will take place.
Whether or not the city is to contribute
$500. or any other amount, to the cele-
bration Of the fiftieth anniversary Of the
discovery Of gold in California next
month, will be decided today. The
finance committee will meet early this
morning for the purpose Of making it's
recommendations on this matter to the
council.
Some action will probably be taken
with reference to the proposed asphaltum
tests. The refusal of the government ex-
perts to make the examination desired
has not been taken as final, and there
is still a probability Of sufficient infiu-
ence being brought to bear in Washing
ton to secure the tests.

Pauper Wages for Americans

One of the first and most striking fea-

McKinley's administration we shall see
them fastened on the wage earners of the
country in every sphere of labor.-Atanta

TO TRY AND WEAR OUT THE COURTS
Indications Are That She Will Either Obtain
Her Freedom or Communication
of Sentence.

Washington, Aprit ft55.-Nfrs. Mobiles,
of Georgia, will net be hanged on
April %.
The United States supreme court to-
day granted the writ of error filed last
Saturday by Glenn & Rountree, of At
lanta, attorneys for the old woman.
The action will stay the execution
for fifty days, and III the meantime the
attorneys Will resort to every possible
legal technicality to still further de-
lay the execution.
Time will probably wear out the
courts and the old lady will either OBJ
tain her freedom or have her sentence
commuted.

WHY NOT TROLLEYs9

Brunswick Man Wants to Know Why We
Can't Have Electric Railways.
A business man of prominence yes
terday said to TIMES man:
"Brunswick now has several incan-
descent electric light systems in course
of construction, two long distance tel
ephOne companies and ~ new local tel
ephone system.
"COnsidering these costly advances,
the people of our city are to be par
dOned if they ask also for an electric
street railway.
"There seems to be no reason why, if
there is no available cash in Bruins
wick, outside capital cannot be secured
for this purpose, as in some of the cases
| have mentioned"

TWO LINES COMING.
Brunswick Will Have Two Long Distance and
Three Local Telephones.

Brunswick Will Have Two Long Distance and
Three Local Telephones.
Brunswick is to have two long dis
lance telephone lines. Both the Way
cross and Valdosta companies are
pushing their lines toward this city.
The city council and the county COM
missioners have granted franchises to
the Waycross company, but refused to
give them the exclusive right. In the
meantime the VaIdosta company has
lost no time, and now has its poles
placed as far as the six mile crossing.
The Waycross company's franchise
included local telephone system, and
the Valdosta people Will probably OBJ
tain like permit. This will give
Brunswick three local telephone sys-
tens, and the competition will doubt
less be merry one.

Judge Locke, at Jacksonville, Dis
misses the Case Against
the Famous Tug.
COMPLIED WITH ORDERS INSPECTOR
The Government Was Completely Knocked
Out in the Trial Of the Case
Yesterday.

Jacksonville, April l5.-The govern
ment was completely knocked out
this morning in the prosecution of the
steam tug Dauntless for the failure to
provide proper extra boats, as re-
quired by the SPECIAL certificate grant
ing her permission to carry excursion
parties.
In passing upon the case, Judge
Locke said that the preponderance of
testimony showed that the orders
of the steamboat inspectors for
this district had been fully COM
piled with. 1t was necessary, the
court said, under the rules and regu-
latiOns governing steam vessels that
the steamer should have two life
boats, and the inspectors had shown
to the satisfaction of the court that
the tug had enough boats to meet the
requirements of law. The only ques-
ton with the court was as to the small
boat, but from the evidence adduced
the court was satisfied that the boat
met with the requirements.
The additional boats, required on
account of the special license to carry
excursion parties, was according to
the rules and regulations of naviga-
tion, left to the discretion of the in
spectors, and the evidence showed
that the orders given by the inspec-
tors, as to the provisions of these
boats, had been complied with, there
fore the libel was dismissed

MEMORIAL DAY.
The Observance in Brunswick Will Be One Of
the Best in the State.


the Best in the State.
The observance of Memorial day in
Brunswick promises to be one of the
most important in the state. The
fact that Gen. Clement A. Evans is to
be the orator of the day, and the ad-
ditional fact that Gen. Floyd King, one
of the most distinguished of the sur
yivors of the Old South, will be the
marshal of the day, adds Importance
to the occasion.
The Riflemen, Naval Reserves and
Marine Band will turn out in parade
and other companies are expected
The Savannah Naval Reserves have, 1t
is understood, declined the invitation
to be present, but the invitation is still
open and they ma possibly accept
after all.
The Wsycross Rifles will also posi-
bly, accept, and if all the companies
that have promised will show up,
Brunswick will have military parade
on Memorial day to be proud of.

DAUNTLESS' SPEED.

She Outran School of POrpOises in Jackson
vile Harbor.
A Jacksonville exchange says:
Captain Donald Mckay, the dep
uty marshal in charge of the Daunt-
less, said yesterday that he had
heard a good deal about the Dauntless
being fast boat, but he did not think
she was fast enough to outrun a pOr-
pOise until he saw her do it.
"While going down to Mayport
Tuesday afternoon a school of por-
poses was oyertaken by the Dauntless
The pOrpOises kept up with the boat
for a while, but she soon left them, ap-
parently tired out. No one ever heard
of vessel leaving porpose behind
for they usually stay alongside fast
steamer for hours at time."

Liberal Conductors.

indianapolis, April 15.-The new
laws went into force last night by the
governors proclamation. The chief
interest here attaches to the three
cent street car fare. On q North car
the conductor put young woman off
the car by force, when she declined to
pay more than three cents. The other
conductors have received the three
cents, and say they will pay the two
cents additional out of their own SAL
ary, rather than have a row.

They Proceed VIGOROUSLY Into
Turkish Territory Regard
less Of Threats.
IN BATTLE, KILL THE TURKS
Those Who Returned Did Not Do So as a Re
suit Of Fear-They Command all the
Roads to Thessaly.

Larissa, April 15.-There is no truth
in the Turkish reports that Greek ir-
regulars have been driven out of Mac
edonia. 1t is true that some of the ir-
regulars, who formed part of the ex-
petition, have returned into Greek
territory, but these are men who, for
some reason, were unable to keep up
with the main body of the Greeks.
The main body of irregulars is con-
tinuing it's successful operations
against the Turks.
The report of the capture of Kipur,
north of Baltino, by the Greeks, is
confirmed, and in addition, the main
forces of the irregulars of the expedi-
tionary force have advanced as far as
Plgavitza, where there is an important
bridge across the mountain torrent.
Ravslis sent another column to the
right from Pigavitza, under orders to
? invest and capture SilvOn, another
town occupying a strategic position of
: Importance. This movement was also
successfully carried out, the Greeks
killing seven Turks and capturing five
prisoners.
After the capture of Selovoff, the
Greek irregular force operating in
that direction continued to advance
as far as Kritudes, Plisia and Kour-
dust.
At Kritudes, PlisIa and kourduzi.
heavy firing occurred between the
Greeks and Turks, but the invading
Irregulars proved themselves more
than a match for the trained Turkish
troops and drove the latter before
them from place to place.
The Greek irregulars now hold all of
the four roads leading from the Thes-
salian frontier in the direction of
Grevena which may be looked upon as
the Turkish center.

to win the prize himself, it having
been conclusively demonstrated that
Blackburn cannot be elected. Black

declined to discountenaDce the move
ment, and have even gone so far as to
deneunee Martin for alleged treach-
cry.
