Honest Labor Bears
a Lovely Face. !"

There IS nothing more stirling and pleas

gained BY honest toll. They are the saving
of the nation, these folers of both sexes
struggling for daily bread.
Pure blood makes them strong and more
able to keep up the daily round of duty

This was the building of a second
story, TO be devoted entirely to the
horses. This had never before been
tried here, and some people laughed al
the idea. But he kept on, and the re-
suit is a revelation.
Up along a gradual ascent the horses
are led. The incline is so small thar
one hardly notices it, and the horses
pay no attention to it at ALL On the
second floor accommodations have
been made for Seventy-five horses. The
stalls are large and roomy, and loom
up bright and clean in their fresh coat
OF Whltewash. The ventilation is per-
feet, the air being admitted from all
sides. By this means the accommoda-
lions have been almost doubled.
On the ground floor also changes
have been made. The stalls have been
arranged and enlarged. Here there is
space for fifty more horses. The har-
ness rooms have been reformed. and
the different sets of harness are meth
Odically arranged
Everything has been treated to sew
eral doses of whitewash, with the ex-
ception of the front, which has been
newly painted. The whole appearance
is one of cleanliness, order and system.

CERTIORARI WAS DISMISSED.
Plaintiff Had Appealed From Deeis-
ion of Tybee Police Court.

The call of the certiorari docket by
Judge Falligant in the Superior Court
yesterday resulted in the dismissal of two
cases, both of them, by a somewhat
strange coincidence, coming from the Po-
lice Court of the town of Tybee and being
against that prosperous and pleasing viii
lage by the sea.
One of them was of some interest. 1t
appeared by the brief of evidence and
the allegations of the petitioner, L. W.
Martin, that he was the proprietor of a
store on the island, and that on the night
of Aug. II, of last year, he was standing
in his doorway and watching the passing
throng. After a while he noticed that
among these were a number of soldiers,
who yelled to him TO get his gun and join
their ranks. They said that a private in
the company then stationed on the island
man named Mcdonald, had been as
saulted by a party of civilians at Worth
ans bar and restaurant and badly beat
en-.
The soldiers said they believed Melon
AIDS statement, and that he had express ID
his Willingness to go down and lick the
entire crowd, who had beaten him, if he
were guaranteed fair treatment and his as
sailants We're directed and required to
come at him one a a time. This was what
they were going to have done. Again re-
quested Martin picked up his rife and re-
Joined the party.
They journeyed down to the place where
the alleged assault upon Mcdonald had
been committed, but were not able TO find
the crowd of men he said had assaulted
him. However, there was considera bic
noise and some threats and excitement and
company of soldiers from the fort was
necessary to suppress the trouble.
in ia hot on h
same night Mayor Butter sent him word
to come to his house, told him that his IL
cense had been revoked and directed him
to appear in the Police Court on the next
morning TO answer charge of melting a
riot. Martin also ayers that the Mayor
| expressed his disapprobation of his conduct
in very strong terms.
At the next mornings session of the Po-
lice Court his case was called, and de-
spite the fact that he was not prepared
for trial, and wished to secure the aid and
assistance of an attorney, was heard and
the defendant fined $25, with an alterna-
tive sentence of thirty days in jail fer
melting a riot. The case was carried by
certiorarl to the Superior Court where it
has been pending since. There was no
appearance for the plaintiff in certiorari
when the case was called and it was
marked dismissed.
Another certiorari case against the town
of TyDee that of Mrs. C. Naylor was
also dismissed. Mrs. Naylor had been
sentenced to pay a fine of 500 and costs or
serve thirty days In jail, for doing a
liquor business on the island without the
payment of a town license.
BY consent of the attorneys for the de
PENDANT a new trial was granted in the
case of w. E. Griffin, plaintiff in GER
| torari, against Leopold Adler, defendant
in certiorari.

Secretary Wilson. Prof. Stubbs and

Capt. D. G. Purse is arranging for a
symposium on the subject Of cane grow
ing and sugar production, to be held in
Savannah some time this fall. He expects
to have present on that occasion Hon.
James Wilson, secretary of agriculture;
Prof. w. c. Stubs, director of the Louisi-
ana sugar experiment station, and Dr.
H. c. White of Athens, president of the
State College of Agriculture and Mechanic
Arts.
Dr. White has already announced his
willingness to attend and take part it
is practically assured that Prof Stubs
will do so. and it only remains now to Sc
cure the attendance of Secretary Wilson
and to arrange a date which viii be sat

men.
The presence of three men so prominent
in the scientific and agricultural world
would make the occasion a most interest

both of business men and farmers. Capt
Purse believes that such an affair would
do more to arouse an interest in the twin
subjects of sugar production and sugar
refining than almost any other step that

that the meeting can be successfully ar

In a letter received yesterday by Capt
Purse from DIR. White the latter volun-
teers his aid in the enterprise and pro-
poses to render assistance of great prac-
teal value. In his letter DR.. White says:
Il have read with much interest the
newspaper references you have kindly
sent me. II win give me pleasure to look
up all the facts and records obtainable
concerning sugar culture in Georgia, with
results OF analyses etc. Should the mat
ter obtained be sufficiently valuable to
justify it, I can arrange to publish a
bulletin Of the experiment station on the
subject. As Won know sugar culture in
Georgia has been, for the most part, linn
tied to the production Of syrup. chiefly
on a domestic scale They have had vast
