Governor Gambler, it is stated, will

sage to the legislature, which will con-
yene today, that all pensions be put on
an INDECENT basis. He thinks there
mas been unnecessary sentimentality
about the matter, especially since
more than 5000 pensioners now have
to make affidavit that they are with
out means of support, or, in other
words, are paupers. He will also rec
ommend the cutting down of several
OF the appropriations made last year
for the year 1902, in order to wipe out
the deficiency of 1851, 900 that exists in
the state treasury in spite of higher
tax rate on largely increased valua-
tion. The governor sees the necessity
for retrenchment, and he will urge it
in the strongest terms The trustees
Of soldiers home are going to ask for
5000 this year for support and main
tenance instead $4,000 as last year, for
the purpose it is said of using a small
portion Of the amount to increase the
fund for rebuilt ling the home.
Governor Gambler will not make any
accommodating one way or the other
with regard to this matter The leg
islature at this session will have TO ap-
propriate 10000 for the support of the
state militia end $4,000 for the pay
ment OF premiums on insurance poll
cies. These apolicies on the states
buildings expire:in January, and in or
der to get reduced rates it is neces-
sary to pay three years premiums at
one time, which carries the state in
surance for five years. The governor
will also recommend a reduction in the
school fund, as he did last year.

SETTLES SENSATIONAL SUIT.
Property of Richard Hobbs improperly Trans
ferred Subject Claims of Those Who Sued'by His Failure

creditors filed bill in the United
States circuit court setting out a long
list of properties which had been
transferred, but which, it was claimed,
should be subject TO their Judgment.
Immediately Judge Speer appointed
Mr. Merrell P. Galloway as receiver
under the bill filed by Hall & Wimber-
ly of Macon, d. H. Pope & Son and W..
W. Bacon, Jr., of Albany. The re-
ceiver was directed to take possession
of the booohs and assets of Hobbs &
Tucker.
But after investigation the receiver
reported to the court that the general
books Of the bank, showing the dispo-
sition of the assets, and what assets
the bank had at the time of its failure,
we're gone, and the defendants had
failed to produce them in compliance
with the courts demand.
A rule was at once issued by the
court calling on Richard Hobbs and
A. W. Tucker and Fl. A. Tarver to
show cause why they should no be pun
ished for contempt of court.
Pending an appeal to the higher
court "a compromise settlement was
reached with Mr.. Hobbs creditors,
and Judge Speer's order confirming
this settlement was filed in Macon yes
terday. 1t allows'sthe.gene credi-
tors 50 per cent. on their claims, with

The decree absolutely sets aside the

One of the most interesting cases IN
the history of south Georgia was dis
posed of yesterday, when Judge opeer'
at Mt. Airy, signed an order allowing
Richard Hobbs of Albany to settle with
his creditors at so cents on the dollar.
The amount required will be about
sos, 1000.
An admission was also signed by Mr..
Hobbs and others saying that numbers
of pieces of property .had been trans
ferred by Mr.. Hobbs to hinder and de-
Law creditors, and on this judge Speer
passed an order setting aside such
transfers.
Mr.. Hobbs was for years considered
the wealthiest and most influential
man in Dougherty county. 1t is estl-
mated that after making the settle
nents called for in the courts decree
he will have left about $50, 900 Or S4O,'
600.
The case dates back from April, 1898,
when Hobbs & Tucker, ALBANY bank
ers. closed their doors, owing ABOUT
s235 900 and having assets nomlnaIly
worth S200,O A great portion OF
those debts were not paid, ard Judge

time to be worthless, as no property
could be found, the sheriff continually

MELTING OLD COMBS.
Hints on Winding Up the seasOn's
Affairs In the Apisry and Dispo-
sitton of the Hives.

November should be spent in winding
up the affairs of the apiary. All hive
parts which have been used during the
summer should, before being stored for
winter, be scraped clean of Jumps or
ridges of wax and propolis. Especially
should the combs not in use be sorted
and the exposed parts of theiI frames
scraped before storing. While doing
this quite lot of beeswax can be kept
separate from the propolis and saved.
We divide combs into three classes:
First, brood combs; second, extracting
combs, and, third, combs TO be melted
up. Brood combs may have few
drone cells in one lower corner, but
otherwise must be all workers, be
straight and contain very little pollen.
2. Combs used for extracting may be
partly or wholly of drone comb, but
should contain no pollen. If comb
would belong to this class except for
patches of pollen, cut them out and let
the bees fill up the holes next summer
with new comb.
In class 3 are the ones rejected from
! and .; combs heavy with pollen, old.

Electric typewriters are expected to
make their appearance on the market
this autumn. a number Of them have
been patented and there will be some
rivalry. They will cost about $500.
The electric typewriter is a power
machine, all the work Of the moving
parts being done by an electric motor,
while the operator simply indicates
the characters. It looks like an ordi-
nary typewriter and the keyboard is
the same. The printing is accom-
plished by mere contact Oh the finger.
No pressure being required, there is
no fatigue. Another advantage is that
speed is practically unlimited. The
work is done as fast as the keys can
be touched.
