NOTICE.

For the benefit of few fellows
who have no more idea than "A
jackass how much it costs to run a
newspaper, the News will state
that all pay locals from this date
on will be charged twenty cents
cents line first insertion and ten
cents line for each subsequent in
sertion. The News has ALWAYS
charged heretofore, one-half the
regular rate charged by all first
class country weekly papers, which
is about one-fifth the rate charged
by all big daily papers. A country
newspaper has by no means an ex-
tensive clientele from which to
draw and its expenses in compari-
son are over one hundred per cent
higher than the expenses of a
daily.

ORTIZ STEIN is DEAD.
Newspaper Man, who Was Well
Known in savannah, Died In New
ri

Orth Stein Is dead. The end came in
New Orleans, where he had heen at work
for three years on the Times Democrat.
He was conducting a 'By-the-By' cob
umn that was widely read and widely
quoted. lis ability in newspaper work
was displayed to advantage in this legit-
innate field and the many who had known
him in Savannah and In Georgia as the
editor of the Looking Glass ana who were
aware of the column he was conducting
for the Times-Democrat, wondered that
he had ever so subverted his talent as to
devote them to so nefarious a sheet as
the Georgia publication of which he was
the father.
Stein viii be readily recalled as the ed
itor of the Looking Glass in Savannah.
The city became too warm for him ana
for his work, and he left. Atlanta then
knew him, but relished the Looking Glass
but little more than had Savannah. Stein
found that he could do no better by re-
turning to a legitimate sphere OF news
paper work.
Consumption was the complaint that
carried Stein off. He had long been a
sufferer from the dread disease, but had
continued bravely at his work. For the
past six months he had been confined TO
his bed, but he still did his writing. UP
to the day of his death, he CONDUCTED
the column that has had a distinctive
place in American journalism
An application of the injunction, de
mortuis nil nisi bonum, saves Stein from
the publication of incidents in his check
cred career that reflect less to his credit
than do the brilliant newspaper efforts
he has made. Orth Stein was an intensely
interesting character. His work was dis
tinetive-at times surprisingly brilliant
The son of a prominent Indiana lawyer
and politician, he entered newspaper work
at Lafayette, Ind, at the age of seven
teen. At Is he drifted West and became
city editor of paper in LeadvIle, Col.
1t was while in Iseadville that he began
to attract attention. Some of his special
stories of that period are still spoken of
by the veterans. One in particular the
story of prehistoric cave
containing a lake "a fake" pure and
simple it was) attracted attention in Eng
land and the staid and sturdy Britishers
were on the point of sending an archaeolo-
gist to investigate when the fake was
exposed. Following the Leadvilie expe-
rience came a period of storm ana stress.
Many black pages entered into the imme-
date years that followed. He drifted
from place to place. working on various
papers, leading the life of an adven-
turer Everywhere he made definite
impress-he was either cordially hated

THE VETERANS PICNIC.
Will BE Given at Tybee Island On
the Tenth of May

the Tenth of May.
The picnic of the Confederate Veterans
Association will be given at Tybee Oh
sion has already been begun. everything
possible will be done by the committees
having the matter in charge to make the
picnic pleasant and enjoyable and the vet
Grams expect that the picnic will be very
largely attended.
The Daughters of the Confedenacy will
attend and they will carry with them as
their guests, the members of Winnie Davis
Chapter of Children of the Confederaey.
To permit the children to attend the pic
mic the Board of Education has agreed to
give those who are members Of the chap
ter a holiday. There. will be a special COM
n1ittee of the Daughters to look after
those Of the children who will not be &C
companied by their parents and this com-
mittee will see to It that every child vino
attends has a good time and is returned
safe in the evening.
The demands made upon the income of
the Confederate Veterans Association
have latterly become so great that the in
come is not sufficient to meet necessary
expenditures. There are relief, charitable
and patriotic objects to which the asso-
citation feels called upon to contribute,
which make heavy drains upon II, none Of
which, however, the association cares to
ignore or refuse 40 help.
The proceeds Of the picnic are to be de-
voted to this purpose, and ii is hoped to
raise fund that will be amply sufficient
to meet all probable demands upon the
associations treasury. Maj. j. r. Shell
don is chairman of the committee having
arrangements for the picnic in charge, and
he is receiving the active aid of a corps
of capable assistants. Extra trains will
be run to the island during the day.
