of his clever and entertaining recitals in

"Mr. Kings work is that of a master

BROKE OUT OF JAIL.
Brown Took Leg Bail of the Lookup
at HinesViIIe.

at HinesViIIe.
Hinesville, Ca, Jan. 15.-J. b. Brown
broke Jail here last night. Brown was In
jail on a charge of burglary. The evil
dence against him, however, was not con-
elusive and it is pretty certain that he
would have been discharged when brought
to trial.
Brown has had quite an interesting and
checkered career He left here in 1870,
when he was years of age, and wandered
out to the West. AS he grew up he saw
service as a COW puncher on the plains of
Texas, Colorado and New Mexico, and
finally settled In Nevada, from which state
he now halls. Returning here to see his
folks, from whom he had not hear in
twenty-seven years. he found them all
dead, and the little property once owned
by his mother in the possession of others.
On the night of Jan. 2 the store of w S.
Harden of Walthourville was broken into
and $3.50 was taken therefrom. Suspic-
ion fastened itself on Brown and he was
arrested and given a preliminary hear
ing and lodged in Jail. Sheriff Brewer
did not place him in a cell, but allowed
him to remain in one of the front rooms.

IN MEMORIAAI.

Died at his home In Savannah, Jan. 16,
1897, surrounded by his devoted children,
Mr.. James Holland, in the seventy third
year of his age.
A native of Manchester, England, he
came with his cherished wife to Savan-
nah in early manhood, where for nearly
half century he lived an honored, useful
citizen, valued friend, and above all,
Joy and inspiration in the hallowed cir
Gle around his own fireslde, where his
gentle and genial presence is missed more
than words can ever express
The world would be brigter and better
If all lives were as upright as that of
Mr.. Holland. Those who knew him well
were wont to say: Behold an Israelite,
indeed, In whom there is no guile!'
Two years before his death he celebra-
ted his golden wedding.
Three weeks subsequent to that event
his life-llght went out in the passing
away of his dear wife, for whom he
mourned with a sorrow for which there
was found no consolation on earth.
Tears of anguish ceased to flow only
when the tired eyes closed in deaths dark
night, and opened in the morning of
Heaven.
His children and grandchildren treasure
a blessed memory of the best and dearest
of fathers.
While the tear-dews mingle with the
flowers upon his grave to-day, they look
upward rejoicing, believing that the i'm
mortal soul is happy at home with. the
sainted wife and all the loved ones gone
before" in one of the"many mansions"
