Bullock County Teachers Want Him
at Their Next Institute.

Bullock County Teachers Want Him
at Their Next Institute.
Before the closing of the Teachers In
stitute Friday morning at Statesboro, says
the Bulloch Herald, a ballot was taken
expressing the preference of the teachers
for an expert at next summers session.
The contest was a close one, resulting
in favor of Mr.. OTIS Ashmore, superln-
tendent of the Savannah public schools.
The election is only an expression from
the teachers which does not necessarily
bind the commissioners in the selection
of an expert; however. if Prof. AshmOre
will accept the position he will probably
be the next expert.
The Herald tells the following interest
ing little incident which occurred private
ly in the Teachers Institute when the
ballot was being taken. one of Thea each
ers was much interested in the c!ecUon OF
Mr.. Ashmore, and turned to the gentle
man next to him to do a little election
eerius in his behalf, whereupon the young
gentleman objected on the ground that,
I'VE don't want any more of these eX-
perts from little suburban towns-we want
a man who has been somewhere and seen
something" 1t so happens that Mr.. Ash
more is superintendent of The schools of
Savannah and one of the best known ed
ucatOrs of the state, but the Smart Aleck
young man didn't know it,"

A DAY THAT WAS HOT.
Mercury shifted Twenty-Five De-
greeS Yesterday.

There was a difference Of just 25 de-
grees between the minimum and the maxi
mum of the temperature yesterday. Had
the day started off at IS and dropped to
70, it might have been said that a cold
wave had headed this way, but as the
case was just the reverse, the effect was
just the opposite. The day was one of
the most oppressive that Savannahians
have experienced recently, and following
upon several days of fairly pleasant
weather. the heat was felt all the more.
The stay-at-homes have been congratu-
ating themselves that Savannah was a
good enough summer resort for them, but
yesterday took the starch out of them.

new PHASE IN LIBEL SUIT
Mrs Eddy's Lawyers Want
Mrs. Woodbury. Pun
ished for Contempt.

Boston. Nov 29.-The remarkable
contest at law between Mrs. Josephine
Woodbury. and Mrs. Mary Baker G.
Eddy progressed another stage in the
superior court today. Judge Braley
took the papers this afternoon and re-
served his decision upon the petition of
Mrs. Eddy. that Mrs. Woodbury. be re-
quired to show cause why writ of at
tachment should not issue against her
and she be placed in contempt, because
of the publication of her declaration as
plaintiff in the suit brought by her
against Mrs Eddy for $150,000 before
said declaration was accessible to the
court; and also for the publication of
sundry articles alleging to be of great
scandal, detriment and injury of Mrs.
Eddy before Mrs. Woodburys suit
against her could be brought to trial
The court also reserved it's decision
upon the further request of Mr.. Samuel
Elder counsel for Mrs. Eddy that the
action for libel entered by Mrs Wood
bury against his client be suspended
until the plaintiff shall have suffered
penalty for and purged herself of her
contempt.
Both sides having rested their cases
upon the conclusion of the examination
of Mrs. Woodbury. the arguments were
made.

BARRICK'S BIG WIN OF 100000
WITH 5000 ON THE TURF.

not do anything right I drifted along,
going from bad to worse, till finally DR..
Rowel. u veterinary surgeon, took my
last good horse from me in a selling
race. This was in the west. l came
back to New York badly bent finan-
cially. Old Maurice kept me going for
a time, but even he finally went back on
me. l would, now and then, get hold
of few thousand dollars, but I could
never make three or four good bets
stick together.
After many ups and downs, l Dor
rowed 5000 during the Morris Park
meeting from a Canadian friend, and
played the bank. After an all-night ses-
sion, was $4,000 to the good After
an interval Of day 1 returned to the
bank and played all night, quitting
$11 900 richer
From that time 1 prospered in all
my speculations. 1 won over $4,000
at the Morris Park meeting, and went
to the Aqueduct track well heeled, as
the boys say. There 1 ran Sir Guy
a colt belonging to me. 1 got 80, Is
and 20 to l against him and won nearly
900 on him. 1t was one of the big
gest killings 1 ever made. / beat the
Aqueduct meeting good, and then came
to this city.
ITO show you that man when in
luck can't do anything wrong, l tele-
graphed to a couple of friends to place
several thousand dollars on Sir Guy
when he was beaten here by Royal
Sterling. What was the result? That
night when l had returned to the hotel
l opened a telegram 1 had received
just as l left the track and found that
my. friends were unable to place my
money on Sir Guy because the pool
rooms had refused to take it. That's
luck, amt it?
During the fifteen days racing here,
I have had only three losing days. The
other twelve days have netted me a
big profit on my investments. 1 have
backed horses at all kinds of prices and
won a big majority of them. Just how
long this good fortune will continue l
can't say. But I can stand it as long
as old Dame Fortune is willing to throw
it at me. Should my good luck desert
me, I suppose L will go broke again.
That is the fortune Of all spectators. ;"

ANOTHER BUBBLE BURST.
The Investors Trust at
Philadelphia Closes
It's Doors.

Philadelphia, Nov. 29.-The Office of the
Investors Trust, a concern in this city
many believe to be affiliated with the
Miller Franklin Syndicate of Brooklyn,
remained closed today and none Of the Of
ficials could be found. No charges have
been preferred against the members OF
the company by investors or the postal
authorities Notwithstanding this, the
impression has gone out that the officials
of the Franklin Syndicate, Miller's Brook
lyn concern and the Investors Trust are
either Identical or in touch with each
other.
The Investors Trust has good balances
in two banks here. The greater portion
of the concerns business was from points
outside the city. The postal officials have
had no complaint, but, as the trusts Of
fee is closed, all mail directed there is held
awaiting identification.
Lipman Keen, about whom nothing is
known here, is president of the Investors
Trust, and Charles l.. Work general man
ager. The latter is the son of George F.
Work, who was implicated in the operations
of McFarlane Durlane in wrecking the
Bank of America and the American Life
Insurance Company in 1890, for which
they were sent to the Eastern peniten-
tiary. The firm started about four years
ago, and promised large profits for small
investments

New York, Nov 29.-William NJ. Bar
rick is the latest successful turf plung-
er. In less than two months he has man
aged to win, with borrowed capital Of
5000, more than 100000 in cash and
twelve good race horses. He says:
II had been knocking around the
tracks a little, placing a few small bets
on the PONIES, till one day-this was
years ago-I went to Clifton. Ballston
was then the crack of the Jersey tracks
If man owned a horse that could beat
Ballston he had a good horse. While
there l was let into the secret that a
horse called Loantaka could sift sand
some.
The people behind Loantaka were
not content to race him against poor
horses; they wished to stack him up
against Ballston or keep him in the
barn. Finally they got him into race
where they met Ballston. l placed a big
bet, for me then-not quite $500-on him
There was a long price and l waited and
hoped. Well, to make long story short
Loantaka went off and never came
back to Ballston. He won by fifty yards
1t was my first big winning and 1 was
highly elated.
Il soon got to betting heavily and
fortune favored me. 1 bought two
year-old called Void and won a small
fortune with him. Then DR.. Hasbrouck
won selling race at the Brooklyn track
and l bought him out Of it. 1 would
never have secured Hasbrouck except
that some kind friend told Wyndham
Walden l hadn't the money to purchase
him and that it would be wise to drop
the colt on me and have him resold in
fifteen minutes when the money was
not forthcoming. But I fooled them; 1
had the money and 1 bought the doctor
with it,
Or. Hasbrouck was a great horse
and won me a fortune in stakes and
purses. l have bet as much as $40, 900 on
him and won more than double that
amount in one race. He was game and
true. owned several other good horses,
but none was as good or true as DIR.
Hasbrouck
When DR.. Hasbrouck broke down, my
fortunes also went to the bad. l could
