life of eternal rest our greatly beloved
and justly esteemed friend and co-work-

of noble charity must ever live in the
hearts and memory of those who knew

Be il therefore,
Resolved. That the Abrahams and Tel
fair Home, of which she was for many
years. its honored president and ddrec-

her guiding influence for good will be
always remembered with the hope that
it will encourage others 10 labor in this
wide field of benevoience and charity.
Be it therefore

ceased, We hereby tender our deepest
sympathy and coincidence with the SIM

will comfort them in this, the hour of
darkest affection. Be 1t therefore

SPECIAL NOTICES,
OFFERS FoR MILK INSPECTOR.
Mr.. John Runte Offers His Expert
ence and His Instruments to Test
PROPRIETOR

ence anu MS lnstru m ents to Test
Milk.
Savannah. Ga, June 4, 190l.-To the
Editor of The Press-Sir; Hearing that
a milk inspector is talked of for Savan-
nah l must really say that better step
could not be taken. l say so because
have practical experience. In my ice
cream business 1 handle about 70 gallons
a week. You can judge that l have some
experience in milk. With the exception of
the health officer of the city probably no
one knows as much about milk. Doubt
less good many men viii claim expert
ence, but they cannot prove it. They can
not detect delicate adultera lions of milk
Therefore l offer my sesrvices and in
struments to the citizens and will assure
you satisfaction If 1 have the opportunity
to serve one year to examine the city
milk. ] will guaranee that the little chill
dren will not suffer with disease from US
ing inferior milk which is often adulterat-
ed and mixed with drugs. With such
milk we cannot expect little children to
thrive because inferior milk cannot be
digested. In some of the diaries an ex-
perienced man WIN be needed to work the
lactometer. Last summer found adulter-
ated milk when the lactometer gave the
right weight But with my experience and
with other instruments 1 could dispose
Of the lsctometer. A man with milk ex-
perience would be valuable a milk in
spector. Therefore, with my experience
and my instruments, 1 can offer any time
for service for this important matter.
All who drink milk will tell you In a
months time after 1 have started to test
the milk that Savannah affords the best
milk of any city of 5000 people. And you
will find your children improving like
morning glories. Before this year l have
called the attention of the newspapers to
this important matter
on April 26 an article was published in
regard to the sale of adulterated milk in
| Savannah. On the first of May the Board
| of Health took notice of this matter /
was prevented by this from publishing an
article which 1 had intended to publish
| These facts were to have been published
before, but some of the papers do not
seem to be inclined TO publish anything
| that will do our fellow citizens any good
| There is never room for sensible things
| but there is plenty of room for foolish
| things in our city papers. But still offer
my assistant services. Yours to remember,
JOHN RUNTE. 461 West Broad street.

MUTILATED COUNTY RECORDS
Page Missing From Minute Book
Forming Important Link in Glynn
EmbexzIement Case.

Page Missing From Minute Book
Forming Important Link in Glynn
EmbexzIement Case.
Brunswick, Ga, June s.-Considerable
talk has been created here to-day by the
announcement that the minute-book of
the old Board of County Commissioners
has been mutilated and a page contain
ting an important connecting link to be
used as evidence in prosecuting charges
of embezzlement against former Clerk
Jacob L. Beach had been cut out entire
ly.
The present Board of Commissioners
are charging Beach with illegal transac-
lions In the redemption of old Glynn
county bonds. and the prosecution is re-
lying on the minute book for much evil
dence. The mutflated book was in pos
session of Expert Accountant Franklin
two years ago and since then has been
gone over by Chairman Ogg, who veri-
fed Franklin's report Since then the
book has been in possession of Clerk
Townsend of the County Commissioners.
Clerk Townsend deposited them in the
county vaults, which have been entered
from time to time by various parties In
the customary routine Of Court House
work, but there is no evidence again st
any one to prove mutilation of records.
Assistant Solicitor General Meador says
the prosecution of the bond embezzle-
ment cases Is in the hands of Attorneys
Meldrim and Adams of Savannah, who
are assisting the state. and he knows
nothing of the value of the missing page.
Clerk Townsend says the page has been
cut out but he does not know who did
dt or what its relative values 10 the state
as evidence is.
The mutilated book but adds another
chapter of interest to the coming trial
OF Former Prison Commissioner Beach,
who has always maintained his absolute
innocence OF any illegal transactions in

SAYS Incident shows Importance
of Having Well Trained Militia.
Atlantan Ga, June s.-Attorney SID
Holderness, who was here from carroll
con to-day and who assisted in the pros
ecution of Ike Williams for the murder
of Otis Word. said that unquestionably
an attack would have been made on the
Carroll county Jail last night had it not
been for the arrival of the troops and
the removal of Williams 10 Atlanta
u saw the mob a short time after II
had been repulsed by Sheriff Merrill and
his small posse he said. 1hey We're
SIN in an ugly mood. There were few
firearms in the crowd but I learned that
runners had been sent out over the couh-
" 10 gather arms and ammunition, and
mat il was intended 10 have the negro
last night if it had been necessary to burn
or blow up the Jail in order to get TO
him or kill him.
The crowd began dispensing when the
proclamation Of the Governor was read
by Mayor Long. The Governor warned
ell those who did not disperse and go to
their homes in accordance with the proc
lamation. that they would be held 10 be
participants in the riot and would De
prosecuted. The mob also learned that
the troops were coming; this I think, is
the only thing that prevented night at
tack upon the Jail
He said there had been no trouble IN
Carrollton to-day. Solicitor Tom Atkln-
son of that circuit was also here, but ne
was not in Carrollton at the time of the
trouble.
Solicitor Atkinson states that Williams
was convicted on purely circumstanual
evidence. He was seen with the boy at
a store In Victory, ten miles south OF
CarrolIton the day the boy disappeared.
He denied on the stand that he knew the
boy, but it was proven that he did. Two
Witnesses said they saw him going up
the road with the boy later on. since
then one of them has made afhdaVlt 20

Many threats have been made against
the Sheriff J. L. Merrill of Carroll FOR
his action in defending the negro ana
many parties in the county have declared
they would kill him. Sheriff Merrill says
he has no fear of them.
Gov. Gambler to-day warmly commend
ed the action of the sheriff and said the
incident shows the importance of having
a well equipped and well trained mill

lots In that vicinity.

most popular residence sites in the city,
and these choice sites are reduced to a
very few north of Anderson street.

the firm of Powell. Smith & Co, said
that the negotiations between his firm
and the American Tobacco company
had not advanced far enough yet for
him to give any details of the methods
that will be used in making the combi-
nation. He said that the cost to the
American Tobacco company would be
about $40, 900, 900 and that Powell, Smith
& Co, would remain a separate com
pany. It is now a c0partnership firm.
and the probability is that it will be
changed to a stock company and the
controlling interest will be held by those
who direct the affairs Of the American
Tobacco company.
