FILCHED THE COMPANY FUND.
Michael r. Quirke, Treasurer of
Republican Blues Said to Be n De-

MIcnael II. Qulrkes treasurer OF
Republican Blues Said to Be n De-
fauIter.
The Republican Blues are mourning the
absence of their treasurer Michael R.
Quirke. and about $3.50 of the company
fund. The treasurer is said to have left
the city recently, but it is said the amount
of his shortage left him a considerable
time ago.
Quirke was treasurer of the company
when Capt. Wilson and the present board
of officers took charge. He was thought
10 be entirely trustworthy and an ac-
counting with him had not been had for
a year or more. A report was due from
him on July l, when the quarterly meet
ing of the company was held, and the
Finance Committee determined that the
report should be forthcoming.
number of conferences were had
with Quirke on the subject, but they
were productive of nothing. After awhile
the committee managed 10 get hold of the
books, but they had been very badly
kept and from them it was virtually i'm
possible TO tell just how the company
stood in it's account with the treasurer.
Quirke was asked what amount of money
ne had in bank, inquiries made at The
bank showed that his answer to this
question was untrue. and he was then
fatty charged with having appropriated
the money with which he had been en-
trusted.
At first Quirke denied he was guilty, but
after a time confessed he was a little
short. He stated, however, that the
shortage was small, and that he could ana
would readily make it good. Two or
three of his friends called upon Lieut..
Dreyer, of the Blues, and told that officer
that they would assist Quirke in his dini-
Guilty. and that the company would not
be permitted to lose anything.
Because of these assurances no warrant
was sworn out and no action looking to the
arrest of Quirke was taken. AS 1t sub
sequenuy transpired this was mistake
Last week Quirke and his friends were to
meet Lieut.. Dreyer in his office, but they
did not turn up. The officers inquired for
Quirke at his boarding place and were told
that he had left the city. 1t appeared,
however, that he had not left the city at
that time, for members of the company
have seen him since.
Whether he is now in the city or not.
nobody but Quirke and his friends seem
to know. The shortage Of $3.50 is that re-
vealed by an eXamina ton of the treasur-
er's books. and as they were inaccurately
kept in many respects the real amount OF
the shortage may be more Superintendent
Screven is making efforts to effect the ar
rest of the defauter and if he can be To-
Gated he will be brought back to the city
for trial.

Mr.. w. A. Bisbee and Associates At
ter Franchises in Jacksonville.
President Bsbee Of the Georgia Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company and his
associates have applied for a franchise
for street railway in Jacksonville. The
line will be in competition with the pres
ont system there, and consequently those
in possession of the field are opposing the
newcomers. Counter applications have
been filed for privileges, and it is said de-
lay may he caused the promoters of the
new line.
1t will be remembered that President
Bisbee engineered the franchises through
the Savannah City Council for telephone
privileges for the Georgia Company. He
was met at the threshold of the Council
chamber by a small army of other tele-
phone men and their attorneys, but man
aged after a fight to get what he wanted.
Judging from his experiences in getting
franchises in Savannah the show of fight
in Jacksonville, either directly or indi-
rectly. may not be sufficient TO get him

A Match Trick.

A feat which any one can perform
with little or no practice is that of
placing II matches upon a table and
lifting them all up upon one of the
matches. This is how it is done: Pick
out one match-the one that has the
--LATEST surface-and then place six of
the other matches about one-fourth
each across the first one, each of the
six being parallel to each other and the
thickness of a match distant from each
other. Next place six other matches
one-fourth each across the first match,
but from the other side all parallel and
in the spaces left by the arrangement
OF the first six matches. Now take the
fourteenth match, lay it over the II
matches where they intersect, and by
carefully lifting match No. and hold
ing match No. IA in place you will ac-
complish without difficulty the feat

"Her Touch"

A sailor who met with a serious acci-
dent was carried to the London hospi-
tai. The poor mother hurried to the
building to see her son. She was met
by a kind but firm refusal from the
house physician, but nothing daunted
she pleaded for admission to the poor
fellows bedside. Who could resist a
mothers entreaties? The safety of the
patient lay in his being kept absolutely
quiet, but the physician consented to
her admission on condition that she did
not speak a word. She stole softly to
his bedside and gaZed as only n mother
can at her unconscious boy. She dare
not speak, but Il mothers love was not
to be denied all expression, and gently
laying her hand on his fevered brow
she let 1t rest there q moment and then
noiselessly crept from the room.
The watchful nurse heard the coma
tose sleeper murmur the words, Her
touch" and. rousing himself. he added,
Surely my mother has been here. i
know her touchr'

sympathy in that touch which told its
