WARRANTS FOR DRUGGISTS
CHARGED WITH MIXING AND SELL
ING DRUGS WITHOUT LICENSE.

The Warrants sworn out by the At
tOrney for the Georgia State
Board of Pharmacy-Charges That
the Druggists Have Not stood Ex-
aminatiOn-Must he Examined De-
fore They Can Fiji Prescriptions.
Seven warrants were sworn out yester-
day In Justice Naughtin's court against
druggists in Savannah charged with sell
ing and combounding drugs without
license and in violation of law.
The warrants were sworn out by Frank
Park, Esq, attorney for the state board
of pharmacy. He has been in Savannah
several days working up the cases, having
been notified of irregular practices on the
part of number of druggists.
The parties against whom the warrants
were sworn out are: w. o. Cubbedge, Ill
Barnard street; William Clare, a clerk in
the same store; Robert Y. NARROW, 1l2O
Jefferson street: the Huff Pharmacal
Company, 426 Oglethorpe avenue; Robert
Ingraham, clerk in the same store, who
is charged with mixing the prescriptions;
Reid & Co., POI Jones street, east, and the
Adams Drug and Paint Company, 102 and
104 Congress street.
The charges are generally for the com
pounding and sale of drugs without proper
license by the board of pharmacy. The ev-
idence of competency as a druggist or
pharmacist under the laws of the state is
a license issued by the state examining
board to persons who have passed the re-
quired examinations The law requires
this license to be displayed in a conspic-
uous place.
The Georgia state board of pharmacy is
composed of s. G. Durham, Augusta, chair
man; Henry r. Slack, LAGRANGE, secre-
tary; George f. Payne of Macon, Harry
Sharp of Atlanta and John P. Turner of
Columbus.
At the last session Of the legislature an
appropriation of $4,000 to be expended in
ferreting out violations Of the laws with
respect to the requirements Of druggists
and pharmacists was made Mr. Park
was engaged as counsel to prosecute the
cases, and he has been instructed to visit
all the towns in the state where there is
any suspicion of violations
The violations of the law which il is his
duty to report and take into the courts
are the sale of adulterated drugs; the sale
of poisons, laudanum, etc, by grocers and
unlicensed men; those who have no IL
cense displayed in their place of business,
those who have not registered their Ii
cense with the ordinary of the county as
required by law.
The penalty in such cases is a fine Of not
more than @,G00 or imprisonment for
twelve months.
The cases which have been brought in
the justice court in this city may be waiv-
ed, in which event they will go before the
grand jury of the superior court or they
may be transferred to the city court
Mr. Park will leave tonight for Allan
ia. 1t Is probable that he will engage
counsel here to follow up the cases in his
absence. Fle says there are many such
violations as are alleged in Savannah in
other towns In the state and he is making.

They Are Taking Time by the Fore

The seven lodges of odd Fellows In Sa-
vannah have begun early to make ar
rangements necessary for the grand re-
ception to the delegates who will come to
Savannah next May whens the convention
of the grand lodge will be held here.
The following committee has been ap-
pointed to devise ways and means for the
entertainment of the visitors. and 1t will
begin in time to make 1t the greatest re-
ception ever given the grand lodge In
Georgia:

The committee has perfected its organi
cation by electing the following officers
Chairman-Thos. A. Askew.
Vice Chairman-Chas. H. Dorsett.
Secretary-A. N. Manucy.
Treasurer-Jas. S. Silva.
The committee proposes getting up an
excursion some time during the present
month for the benefit of the entertainment
fund. The excursion will in all probability
be the largest of the season as there are
close on to 1000 Odd Fellows in the city.
Other entertainments will follow during
the autumn and winter months, and in
this way sufficient funds will be raised to
defray all expenses without calling upon
the lodges for assistance.
The members will in all probability ar
range a programme of entertainment doing
away with the hackneyed and stereotyLA
style in vogue in most cities of the state.
The committee will meet Wednesday night
at Odd Fellows hall to receive the report
of the sub committee on programme.
The last session of the Grand Lodge held
in Savannah was in $780, and the brethren
all over the state are looking forward with
pleasurable anticipations to the session of
1898.
Savannah Odd Fellows never do things
by halves and the up country member
knows that a good time is in store for
him next May
The majority of the members of the COM
mittee are experienced in such matters,
and understand thoroughly what is best
suited for the occasion. Their names are
a sufficient guarantee that an interesting
and pleasing programme will be arranged.

CHIEF Mcguire speaks PLAINLY IN deallnS
with Savannah's lack of system in build
ing and the necessity for ordinances reg
ulating such work. He says:
The absence of proper laws covering
the construction and remodeling of build
ings and the lack of authority given me
to require that proper precautions be
taken in such matters, is TO very great
extent the cause of many fires. Some
years since an ordinance was adopted by
council. the framing of which cost the
public considerable money, but for the
reason that council has never seen TT to
appoint a building inspector, the law. al
though passed by council has never be-
come effective. l feel safe in saying that
there Is no city, of the same size as Sa-
vannah. in the country, that has such
loose and imperfect building laws as this
city is now operated under. Since my ap-
polntment ] have done my best TO have
a competent building inspector appointed,
but to no avail, and, finding that my ef-
forts in this direction were SO very unsuc-
cessful. have devoted considerable time

in "A manner assist me in reducing the FIRE

request that he introduce them before

Fourth of July and HaIIigan.

The most important event in the history
of the country, next to the declaration of
independence, was the establishment in
Savannah of Hal1igan's restaurant. Prior
to the Halligan era the good people Of
Savannah took what they could get in
the shape of restaurants. No provision
for comfort, cleanliness and care was
ever made. Prices ruled high and service
low. The Halligan restaurant was the
pioneer of all that was up to date and at
tractive in restaurant service. Comfort
able, we'll lighted and ventilated dining
rooms, first class table and excellent SER

standard set by him has always been
maintained. To-day his restaurant is the
best in the city, and 1t will continue to
be so long as Halligan is at the head

cry inducement and can certainly give sat

THE REASONS WHY
HOusekeepers Should PatrOnize the
City Market.

City Market.
There is greater attraction and larger
variety Of products to select from.
The fact that the market is presided
over by health officers, inspectors and
market clerks is a guarantee that nothing
is offered for sale but that which is pure
and healthy.
Another reason is that the street cars
center there, and 1t is so convenient for
housekeepers to go direct TO the market
and make their purchases in the early
morning before the sun gets high and The
heat oppressive.
1t is a satisfaction, too, that every one
can rely upon getting anything they want
from the leading enterprlsing butcher, H.
Logan, who caters to the wants of the en-
tire city.
He furnishes the finest roasts, steaks
and other cuts of choice meats because
he will have none but the best ON his
stalls.
He makes a speciality of fresh fish, crabs.
vegetables, fruits and melons, which he
purchases from first hands and delivers
to his customers.
He sends to your house for your orders
and delivers them promptly at the time
you wish and guarantees everything to be
