POINTERS FROM PO0LER.
News of the Little Town Up the
Central.


Central.
The Poolerites want an earlier train to
Savannah. and it is said the railroad au-
thorities would confer great favor on
the working men who reside at Pooler IL
they would change the schedule OF the
early morning train so that Poolerltes
could get to Savannah in time to go to
work at 7 O'clock The train during the
past two weeks, it is said, has been late
every morning from fifteen to fifty
minutes. If this keeps up, it is stated
a great many Poolerites will have to
move or lose their jobs. The railroad au-
thorities state the delay is caused by the
sanitary inspectors visiting the train, but
it is thought the schedule could be made
fifteen minutes faster, which would OIL
set the delay caused by the inspectors.
The residents of the suburban towns
along the line of the Central of Georgia
railway have been trying for the past
five years to have the railroad issue a
family ticket book at a reduced rate. a
committee waited on Vice President Egan
last week. and, after looking into the
matter, he has ordered that cheap family
ticket books be issued after Oct. 15. This
will be a great help to Pooler, and shows
that Mr. Egan intends to do all in his
power to build up the Suburban traffic.

Oddly enough, the old salts of the Brit
ish navy are for the first time to be sup
piled with salt as an article of diet, says
the Springfield Republican. Pepper and
mustard have always been supplied, but
hitherto Jack has been obliged to buy his
own salt if he wanted any. The reason
for this curious omission of one of the most
universal articles OF human diet is that
in the past sailors at sea were fed So ex-
clusively on salt meat that to add a sep
arate item of salt would be adding insult
TO injury But now preserved food is Of
fered in such variety that sea fare is not
so different from what the sailor would
have on land, but the rulers of the queens
navee have been slow to realize the
change.

selling just twice as many goods now as
il sold last year. Notwithstanding the low
price of cotton, and accounts for this ire
mendous increase in business from the
fact that the merchants have quarrel on

a sharp competition in trade.

of age has been acting strangely. She
has been living with her mother at 104

crazed in her opposition to whisky and
the wearing of corsets by women. In adj
dition to this, she has had a religious ma
MIA which has been intensified of late since

should kill a number of people including
her mother, who is widow, and is heart

the fun has Just begun; right here In
San Antonio, a negro has committed
a rape on white woman. A negro
remember, not a white man. We have
had negroes to rape negroes and
whites to rape negroes, but that was
Iof little consequence, nobody was con-
victed. But right in the midst of a
great gospel meeting a negro raped a
white woman. and the great advocate
of law and order who is always for
the good of the community, the great
and only Express comes out with quin-
tuple headed, triple loaded article, ma
king the man a black brute and pic

tives Shoaf and McCloskey, being plac-
ed in Jail and covering in "a corner of
his cell in fear that the jail doors
might be battered down and his black
hulk hung up to a mesquite tree, or
a telephone pole or something, 1t is
a noticeable fact that rapists are sell
dom lynched until the papers have air.
ed the case and in our judgment the
article in the Express is just such SEN
sationalism that incites man to yio-

believe everybody ought to have a

The Light came out and nobody said

a legal hanging and a lynching esea-

prove it and then hang him. If he be

POLICY SHOP RAID

1.-THE Bayou City Taking the Initiative
Special Wire to Sunday Light.
Houston, Tex, July 31.-aAbout moor
Friday, just as drawing was about
to take place at a well known policy
shop, the district attorney and sheriff
entered the place and Immediately
proceeded to take charge.
There were about $50 people in the
room at the time, for the most. part
negroes.
There was no excitement or stamped
ing at the approach of the officers; in
fact the proprietor asked permission to
finish the drawing, which reaoest,
however, was not granted.
The policy shops are becominsd SO
widespread in their pernicious influ-
ence that they are becoming a source
of universal complaint. The game is
so fascinating that it begets other
crime in"the way of petty thefts to get
money with which to play 1t. Servants
who are sent to market or out to make
purchases will stsal or 10 cents of
the change with which to buy policy
tickets. These tickets are generally on
sale at corner groceries. The cheap
ness OF the investment and the fact
that you can win 50 on investment of
cents if you strike the right comIpina.-
ton is that which makes the game SO,
popular. These policy shops have heir
strikers or agents all over town, selling
tickets, and it is said that school child

FANATICIsM AND DEvILTRY.

From the Alamo Advance.
Right in the wake of every religious
wave comes an era of crime that never
ceases until the revival of religion has
ceased. Is this a coincidence? Or
does a religious upheaval arouse the
latent meanness in one? Texas is now
inflicted with gang of bowling gos-
pei sharps. Crimes are more fire.
quent and more atrocious in Texas
than memory can recall. Waco now
has a big meeting and unprecedented
series of crimes. A man killed last
Saturday by unknown parties. An
old colored man killed while coming
from meeting. Two men killed and
another wounded in Waco last We'd
nesday. Up in East Texas people
are being killed every day. COlored
people are holding revivals every
where, women are being raped every
where, the revivals are being held and
negroes are being lynched in the same
places. From appearances the hosts
of Lucifer can defeat the hosts of Is
rael every time in an open engagement.
Every community that the religious
craze strikes, suffers from a serious
epidemic of crime. Why is 1t? A
man in Middlebury, N. Y, attended a
series of revivals, is converted, becomes
enthusiastic, studies the bible and
when his eyes become tired plucks
them out-they offended him.
A woman in the state of Indiana be-
comes religiously insane and imagines
the Lord commanded her to sacrifice
her four-year-old child. She secures
a butcher knife and sewers its head,

Silas Sugg is 4s years DID,. Heehas
had no education and neither of his
parents ce1ld either read or write. He
was a failure as farmer and has made
his iving7fo 16 years as silversmith.
The religious phase of his character de-
veloped about five years ago, when he
evolved a sort of theology from the
Bible, inwhich Christianity and snakes
seem teo bear about equal parts. Ac-
cording to him Ghrist's mission on
earth, besides being to save the lost and
restora' peace among the sons of Adam,
was to- repeal that law which obtained

SNAKE whose persuasionss brought
about the fall.
Sugg is very careful about his ser
pentss They can bite him as much as
they will, but he handles them as care
fully as though they were glass and he
was afraid of breaking them. In the
autumn he Turns them loose among the
rocks of Illinois, and he says they al
ways come back in the spring.
In his deaf box he carries a rattle
snake, which appears,to DO fine four
foot specimen, of Crotalus eonfuentus;
three or four copperheads OF various
sizes, which are readily recognizable

highland moccasin, and to ophiologists
as Ancistrodon atrofuseus, and equal.

rus, the bite of every one of which is
ordinarily considered fatal. OphioS-
gists say that the RSGfing adder, or III
tempered, bad-maanered Heterodon
platyrhinus, is harmless. Sugg has one
in his box. He says that cats and
chickens diewhen bitten by the putting
adder, but the putting adder doesnt
hurt him.
All of these snakes are allowed to
strike Sugg at every performance ht
gives. They are performances, though
he permits no admission fee and re
fuses to travel with any circus, side
show or dime museum. He really seem:
to be just a big, awkward, stupid mar
