CRUISERS COMING SOUTH.
Naval Militia Will Have One for
Two Weeks i'm ADriI or NAV


Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roose-
welt has written Adjt. Gen. Ken a letter
in which he announces the plans for the
instruction and drill of the Georgia naval
militia in sea duty during the spring
1T is the intention of the department"
he says, IF the exigencies of the service
will permit, to detail two cruisers for the
instruction of naval militia during the
spring and summer of the current year
In order that this plan may be system
atically carried out, the ships will have
to begin their cruise in the South and
work toward the North. One cruiser will
be in Savannah or in the immediate vi
cinity for two weeks, from April % to
May Z.
THE first week will be given to instruc-
ton on board ship at such times as will
best enable the naval militia to be present
The attendance can be made voluntary
If necessary. 1t is hoped that in this way
the naval militia may be enabled to thor
oughly familiarize themselves with all the
details of organization and drills for this
particular ship.
The second week will be devoted to tar
get practice and drills under way This
period will correspond to that generally all
lowed by the state for the encampment of
lHe national guard. During this second
week the naval militia should encamp at
some suitable base where they can be en-
parked each day, returning to the camp
at night. Sapelo sound has been recon-
mended as an ideal point for the encamp-
ment of the Georgia naval militia The
Brunswick division should utilize the
United States steamer Passaic as a float
ing barracks. where the division may be
quartered.
The navy department cannot, under the
law, furnish subsistence or transportation
nor VIII 1t be able to land any part of the
regular crews of the ship. The naval mi
MIA cannot, therefore, be berthed on
board, and they will be required to furn-
ish their own board all day. You are re-
quested to confer with the commanding
officer of the naval militia of Georgia and
report TO the department whether 1t can
depend upon the cooperation OF the state
OF Georgia in carrying out the proposed
plan"
AdJutant General Kell has sent a COPY
OF this letter to all the naval officers and
ne expects to learn from them that the
plan, as proposed by Secretary Roosevelt.
is satisfactory to the Georgia reserves.

Wnen the firemen arrived. 1t looked like
very damaging fire, because of a slight
WIND which was blowing and which an

beyond control.
When extlnguished the building in the
rear OF The Guilmartin stables was com
pletely destroyed and the feed room of The
Gullmartin stable, together with about 90O

AS there are about $500 fire keys cut,
only small number of which are regis

Son Became of Age shortly After His
Mothers Death.

The application of John r. Fennell, tenn
porary administrator of the estate of Mary
II. Fennell. for years support from the
estate of William F.. Fennell. was argued
before Judge Ferrill in the Court of Or
binary yesterday.
The temporary administrator makes the
application in behalf of Schley 3. Fem
nell, son of Mrs. Fennell, who was a
minor, 201a years old, at the time of his
mothers death. and several interesting
points were presented. The arguments
were made by Mr.. e. r. Mcclellan, repre-
senting the applicant and Mr.. e. S. Ell
lott, representing the caveators.
The main caveator is the Standard
Building and Loan Association, which
claims that the estate OF William e. Fen
nell owes it $4790.1S, principal and interest
1t objected to the award on the grounds
that a temporary administrator had no
right to make application for years sup
port; that the beneficiary was more than
q years old when the application was
filed; that he was not party to the an.
pllcation. and that the amount awarded
was excessive. 1t was also shown that
the son has his fathers former position
a the salary then paid. These questions
have been taken in hand by Judge Ferriu
who has reserved his decision.

COURT GRANTS A NoN-sUIT.
Last of the Litigation Caused by the
Ascending Emigration Agent.

Ascending Emigration Agent.
The case of Charles A. Baker VS.. ]. W.
Masters and Mrs. r. NJ. Fraser was non
suited in the Superior Court by Judge Fall
ligant yesterday, and that of Israel John
son against the same parties was settled
This ends the litigation growing out of
the actions of J. w. Masters the abscond-
ing emigration agent, who was here in
1895 as agent of the movement to send ne
groes to Liberia Masters secured powers
of attorney from several negroes who
wanted to make the trip, and sold their
property at very low prices to Mrs Fra
ser. He then left with the money for
parts unknown, and was last heard of
in California.
Suits were brought against the parties
to whom the property was sold. The case
OF Gilbert DeLoach against Mrs. Fraser
was won by her before a jury in the Su-
perior Court. That of Charles A. Baker
was non-suited, as stated, on the ground
that there was no proof of any fraud or
the knowledge of any fraud on the part of
the defendant. The property claimed by
DeLoach was sold for $120, ard that by
Baker for $50.
In the third case, that of Israel John
son, the property was sold for $12O
but it was shown that it was
worth several times that amount
rms case was settled by Mrs
Fraser selling the property to Johnson for
Just what she paid for it, including taxes
ana interest. The plaintiffs were repre-
scented by Messrs. Lester & Ravenel and

Orange County Court.

The December term OF Orange county
court was formerly opened on Tuesday
morning, December 6, with prayer by Rev
A j. Eastman, the pastor of the local Con-
gregational church, after which Sheriff
Frank !. Whitney made proclamation for
the attendance of the petit jurors. But
twenty-nine of the thirty-four summoned
from the seventeen towns of the county
answered to their names, the others having
been excused. Judge Rowell gave very
able charge carefully explaining the vari-
GUS duties enjoined by the oath and pre-
scribing their course OF behavior during the
progress OF trial. The calling of the jury
calendar disclosed but two of the ten cases
set for trial as ready and these were set for
trial by the court. or these one was after
ward continued by the agreement OF coun-
sci. This disposed OF the civil cases and
the criminal docket being reached uuex
pectedly, on motion Of respondents coun-
sell r. NJ. Harvey, the trial of State v.
Richard Kennedy, prosecution for fur
nishing cider contrary to law, was contin-
ued till Wednesday morning. States At
tOrney Hale X. Darling, assisted by David
S. Conant OF Bradford, represented the
prosecution, but Mr.. Darling being taken
sick, Hon. John III. Watson was called into
the case on Thursday morning and took the
laboring oar. The States testimony tended
to show that respondent had kept sort of
public resort for dispensing old cider to the
multitude, both strangers and drunkards,
but the respondent produced many witness
SEES to the contrary aud the jury, though re-
ceiving the case to decide on Friday after
noon, and remained out all night till next
afternoon, were unable to agree and were
then discharged. This was the only jury
trial OF the term, the respondents pleading
guilty in three other cases and paying their
fines. Edwin w. Ilsley AID Helen K. lis
ley, both OF Thetford, husband and wife,
fined fifteen dollars each for breach of the
peace, which fine with costs, amounted to
S33 against each respondent.
In the case OF State V. Mills A. Lord and
j. Erwin Lord Of Thetford, a complaint for
cruelty in the treatment OF cow. the re-
spondents pleading guilty, were sentenced
to pay fines of $40 each and one half the
costs. In the two cases against Homer N.
Young, appellant, one for breach of peace,
the other for intoxiCation, the entry of nOHe
prOSeQui was made. These were the locally
famous "World's Fair" cases which arose
out of the attempt of Daniel 9. Jones, then
marshal of the fair, to arrest said Young at
the Tunbridge fair, September 20, 1897.
The complaint for intoxication was tried
last June, ending in disagreement of the
jury, after six days trial. In the case of
State " Frank Broughton and Benjamin
Parker, an indictment for breach of the
peace, n0lle prOSequi was entered against
Broughton and Parker's bonds were called,
a motion to CHANGER being entered for the
bail. On Monday afternoon the trial of
court cases was begun wi n full attendance
of the county attorneys. The term seems
likely to end by the middle OF the week,
being one Of the shortest within recent
years.
