something similar to that. told Ar

told me TO think and see if l could not

such a remark, and | know that Pow
ers never did make such a remark or
anything resembling it in my presence,
but being urged by Arthur Goebel, |
finally concluded to state that he did
make such statement, and SO swOre

Mr. Lamb is the Republican candidate

of leaving on the sidewalk in front os his
house. baskets containing the lunch in
tended for the noon consumption OF the
motormen and conductors of the Wash
ington Traction and Electric Company's
cars running on that thorouShfare- The
objection to the practice is found in the
alleged discoIoration of the sidewalk by
grease from the baskets. The matter was
referred to the police, and the Washing
ton Traction and Electric Company have
been notified of the complaint with q view
to the discontinuance of the practice.
Mir Carpenters letter of complaint is
as follows:
1t has been the custom for some tim >
past for the boarding house keepers on
Eleventh Street northeast TO hand lunch
nails and baskets 10 conductors and mo-
tormeu from this corner. AS Ing as we
had a brick walk we made DO objection
although it was nuisance to be coI-
stantly removing greasy paper from Our
YARD and walk that escaped from the
baskets Now that We have new cen =
crete walk this custom has become an
ingoIerable nuisance Cur sidewalk Is
covered with unsighty grease spots from
baskets cepoSlIeU IneEe dNdltlHS INC a =
rival of me cars
The grease peuetrates the porous con-
crete. and no amount of scrubhing and
washing Will remove the stains
Il would be pleased if you would in-
struct the officers on this beat to see
that a stop is put to this nuisance. |
nave requested the parties with the Das-
kets on several occasions to place them
on the street near the curb, or in ths
they pay no attention 10 me. AS we are
taxed 20 pay for the sidewalk. and are
expected to keep same clean, think
we are entitled to protection from eth
ers.
Hoping that my complaint Will re-
eeive prompt attention, and that this
nuisance will cease. l remain, etc.

thorities in regard to the matter, that the

inued or some other corner selected
where the sidewalk could be kept free

that he had notified the Washington Trac-
tion and Electric Company, of the COM

might be obviated. The report was ap-
proved by the Commissioners

THOMAS SENTENCED TO HANG.
To Pay the Penalty of His Assault
Upon Mrs DouberIy

Upon Mrs. Douberly-
George Thomas. the negro who assaulted
Mrs. Rosa Douberly, in Hardeevnle, S. c.,
some two months ago, has been sentenced
to pay the penalty of his crime. A dis
patch to the Morning News from Beaufort
says that Thomas has been tried, convicted
and sentenced to be hanged June 20.
The particulars of the assault and the
intense public indignation that it ex-
cHed, are familiar to the readers of the
Morning News. 1t was only by the exer-
else of the persuasive influence of the
leading citizens of the community. that
the lynching of the negro was averted, and
the law permitted TO take its course.
Thomas was captured soon after the
crime, and was then positively identified
The Beaufort dispatch says that the
jury required but five minutes to make
up its verdict. There could have been
no result other than a. conviction, for the
evidence as to the guilt of the defendant
wos clear and convincing. Mrs. Douberly
is resident of Savannah, her husband
being employed by the Mutual Gas Light
Company.
