TODAY THE LAST DAY.
About 500 Property Owners Who
Have Not Yet Made Returns.

About 800 Property Owners Who
Have Not Yet Made Returns.
To-day is the last day for making re-
turns of property TO the tax receiver. Capt.
John r. Dillon announced that he would
positively shut up shop to-day at 2 o'clock,
and all who fail TO. make their returns by
that time win be assessed a double tax,
which they can have removed only by
showing very good cause to the County
Commissioners as TO why they failed TO
make returns. This can only be done after
the double tax has been paid.
There are still 500 or more property own
ers to make returns, about half of whom
are shop keepers and operators of corner
grocery stores. They appear to have been
quite slow in making their returns. The
others are real estate owners of one kind
and another. Capt. Dillon has done every
thing possible 10 notify them all and get
them in, and though there has been many
a return made during the last weeK, there
are many more yet to come.

DAVIS DAY LITTLE OBSERVED.
Hardly Possible to Tell That 1t Was
n Holiday.

There was but a scaut observance of
Jefferson Davis birthday as a holiday in
Savannah. To the casual observer, there
was no indication that the day was hol-
iday. None of the stores were closed, and
on the Bay business went on up to D. m.
as a rule, although some of the offices
were kept open an day.
From business standpoint the only fea-
lures that marked the day were the closed
banks, and the fact that the Board Of
Trade and Cotton Exchange We're closed
Everything else went on as usual
Sessions of the Recorders Court and Of
the City Court We're held At the City Ex-
change business was apparently not sus-
pended except in one or TWO offices The
school children were the only ones who
fully realized that the state had set aside
June as a holiday. All the public schools
observed the day, of course.
The general impression is that in order
to have the day properly celebrated and
marked by a suspension of the ordinary
business activities OF the city it will be ne
cessary to have a programme prepared
hereafter including a military parade and
GRAFTON. Next year the Confederate veter-
ans viii probably prepare for a more suit

WILLIAMS CASE DISMISSED.

Prosecuting Witness Failed to APP
pear Against StatesbOro Lawyer.
Even though it was a legal holiday yes
terday, very few of the prisoners who
came came before Judge Norwood in the
City Court got off without a chain-gang
sentence. There were some twelve or fif-
teen cases on the docket, and the majority
of those who were up for trial got the
limit, twelve months.
Perhaps the most Interesting feature OF
the court was the disposition of the case
of G. w. M Williams, the Statesboro law
yer, who was arrested on the charge OF
having stolen gold watch from Jerry
Adams. Adams took out a bail in trover
got his watch from the pawnshop and
then suddenly disappeared from the city.
Mr.. Gordon Saussy appeared on behalf
of the state, having been appointed solicit
tor general pro TEN in the absence of So
licitor General Osborne, and after having
made an investigation of the case, found
he could not get the prosecuting witnesses.
He thereupon made a motion that the
case be dismissed for want of prosecution,
and because the state could not make out
a case, none of the Witnesses for the
prosecution being present. This course
was taken, and Judge Norwood issued an
order dsmissing the case and dischargins
the defendant
Anna Graham was sentenced to pay a
fine of $25 and costs or spend twelve
months on the chain-gang for the larceny
of some clothes from Ruby Cox.
Joe Williams, alias Brown, who escaped
from the county chain-gang on May H.
While serving a sentence of twelve months,
was given another twelve months to serve
at the expiration of the sentence he was
serving when he maze his escape.
David Williams was found guilty of the
larceny of S. in money from Fl. Hays, and
was sentenced TO pay a fine of $50 and
costs or spend twelve months on the
chain-gang.
Levi Beale, charged with the simple lar
ceny of an ice cream churn, valued at 81. 50
from Jas. Banks, was found guilty and
sentenced TO pay a fine of S20 or spend
twelve months on the chain-gang.
Willie Dorm was given a sentence of s.
and costs, for the simple larceny of some

George Montgomery was sentenced to
