II Came From Cuba to "Mr. The
Southern OIL Cotton"

A queer legal document reached United
States Deputy Marshal Charles J. White
yesterday and was served by him upon
Mr. l.. w. Haskell manager of the South
ern Cotton Oil Company. The document
was issued from the Primary Court of
Claims of Cienfuegos. Cuba.
1t had reference to a petition filed by
the firm of Castillo & Co. for an extern
sion of time from it's creditors. In very
eccentric English it related the troubles
that had overtaken this firm and their
causes, and recited a decree of the Court
of Claims, which provided for meeting
of the creditors on Jan. 80, next. The
decree is signed Miguel Gutierrez Murilo,
judge of the court
The Southern Cotton Oil Company is a
creditor of the firm and it was desired
to serve a copy of the decree upon 1t.
The copy reached the deputy marshal
here through the Attorney General of the
United States and District Attorney Err
win. 1t was addressed to Mr.. The
Southern Oil Cotton" Mr.. Haskell ac-

WOMEN USED KNIVES.
Cut Each other Several Times in a
New Years Eve Quarrel.

Cut Each other Several Times in "a
New Years Eve Quarrel.
Carrie Richards and Mamie Benton, two
negro women of the West Side, got into
a dispute on West Broad street, near
Liberty. shortly after 9'o'clock last night
and cut each other in half dozen places
The Richards woman is well known IN
police circles. and has been in trouble
before, although she claims that she was
not at fault. She received three stabs'
and was the first placed under arrest
Shortly afterwards Patrolman Goodwin,
who was on duty in that neighborhood.
sent the Benton woman to the station
house. She, too, was cut i'm several
places The wounds of both women were
dressed by Police Surgeon f. S. Osborne.
The prisoners are charged with disorderly
conduct and fighting in the street, and
will be given a hearing by Judge Hart
ridge this morning. 1t would appear that
jealousy prompted the trouble that re-
suited in both women losing much blood.

WILL NOMINATE TONIGHT.
Citizens Club Committee of One Hun
bred to Discuss Candidates.

dred to Discuss Candidates.
The Committee of One Hundred appoint
ed by Chairman Merritt w. Dixon, in &C
cordance with the authority vested in him
by the Citizens Club mass meeting of
last Friday night. will meet tonight for
the purpose of nominating twelve cam
ddates for aldermen of the city Of Sa-
vannah, who will run on the ticket with
Mayor Myers.
These nominations will he reported at
the Citizens Club meeting of tomorrow
night, and ratified at that time by the
action of the club.
A prominent member of the adminstra-
ton faction, who is in thorough touch
with all that is in progress said yester-
day that the public would be thoroughly
satisfied with the nominations for alder
men that would be made by the Com
mittee of One Hundred.
Indeed, there is no reason why the next
Board OF Aldermen should not be one of
the best in the history Of Savannah, Mr..
Osborne expressed a truism when he said
at The last meeting OF the club that it
owed it to itself, as well as to the peo-
pie of Savannah, to see that only the bes.
men Were nominated for Council.
There are no considerations that would
impel the Citizens Club 10 select inferior
men for its candidates. In heated cleo
tons it ofttimes happens that it is politi-
cally necessary to place some men on the
ticket, not for what they are, but for
the votes they can bring; and this con-
sideration is responsible for most of the
aldermanic insists of the past ten years.
As it Is practically certain that there will
be no healthy opposition to the Citizens
Club ticket it would seem that the very
instinct Of preservation would urge
it to make competent and respected and
respectable men its candidates for office.
These views are those that are expressed
freely on the streets and not their least
ardent champions and advocates are mem
bers of the Citizens Club. 1t is from that
large portion of the club membership that
holds these views that there comes the
threat of a separate ticket in case the
use of some of the alleged aldermanic
timber which is being discussed is at
tempted in the construction OF Savan-
nah's ship of state.
The friends of DR.. NJ. r. Dunn, whose
name has been mentioned in connection
with the aldermanic ticket say that he
will not be a candidate under any circum-
stances. He Is regarded as an excellent
man for the new board. but those who
are close to him say that he would not
accept the nomination.

SERIOUS CHANCES.

Case of Piles.

Case of PILES.
Any person takes serious chances in
neglecting an attack of piles, because of
the tendency to become chronic and fur
Their the danger of liberation and form
ing fistula both very difficult to cure.
Most pile cures are simple ointments or
salves, which relieve temporarily but are
useless as far as making a cure is con-
cerned.
The safest remedy for any form Of
piles whether itching or protruding is
the Pyramid Pile cure because free from
cocaine and opiates. II is in suppository
form to be used at night and painless
and causes no detention from daily oc-
cupation. and the many cures made by
it have made it famous in every corner
of the United States and Canada and any
druggist will tell you IL enjoys a greater
demand and popularity than any pile
remedy ever placed on the market.
Mr. james Kenton Of Memphis. Tenn.
says: Il suffered from itching piles for
two years and found nothing that would
relieve me permanently; not even mer-
curial ointment seemed to reach my
case. But fifty cent box of the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure, which l bought at my
druggists cured me entirely and for
months past / have had no return of the
disease"
Mrs Kenmore Of SO. Omaha. writes p:
Il suffered torture from protruding piles
for a large part OF my life and had long
since given up any hope Of cure as l
dared not risk an operation and could
not afford the expense anyway. had
often read advertisements about the
Pyramid Pile Cure, but never placed con-
fdence in patent medicines but tried
the Pyramid In sheer desperation. and
was delighted and surprised to receive
marked relief ana benefit from the first
few applications. II took five fifty cent
boxes TO cure me completely. ana no one
can appreciate my feeling Of gratitul~
who has not suffered as I have"
For any case of itching. protruding or
bleeding piles the Pyramid Is a certain
o absolutely safe remedy.
