GRAND JURY WILL MEET.
Will Formulate and May Return
General Presentments Friday.

VIII Formulate and May Return
General Presentments Friday.
The grand jury of the Superior Court
will meet next Friday afternoon, when
some criminal prosecutions will be pre-
scented for its consideration. 1t is I'M
derstood that some of the cases of the
Good Government League will be
among the number.
It is known that the agents of the
league have not been altogether mac.
tive during the last two months, and
that they have secured evidence against
a number of alleged violators of the
Sunday observance laws. Officers of the
league decline to discuss their inten-
tons in this matter, but it has been
predicted that these cases will be pre-
sented to the grand jury and that body
asked to return indictments. Some in
dictments for gaming and keeping
gaming houses may also be among the
number, as 1t is a matter of common
repute that these offenses have been
latterly committed with about the same
amount of freedom as has obtained in
the past.
The grand jury will probably formu-
late on Friday its general presentments
to the court, the material for which
has already been furnished in the re-
ports of its several committees. 1t
may be that these presentments will
be returned at the same time, as the
December term of the court seonvenes
on Monday, Dec. 2, and as the law re-
quires that the court adjourn for one
term five full days before it convenes
for the next, there will be only four
or five days after this meeting on Fri
day for the grand jury to act
The subject of drainage will be dealt
with extensively in the presentments
of the grand jury, Maj. r. A. Bland
ford being chairman of the grand jury's
committee on this subject, and having
with the members of his committee
made thorough examination of the
sanitary condition of the county.
It is expected that Judge Falligant
will be back in the city by Friday,
to receive the presentments of the
grand jury in the event they are re-
turned. Judge Falligant has greatly
improved in health during his stay in
New York, and is now feeling very
much better and stronger than he has
for months. If he does not return in
time Judge Seabrook. of the Atlantic
Circuit, who has acted for Judge Fall
ligant in his absence, will preside.

SELLING OUT EXHIBITS.
Many Secured Bargains Yesterday
mt the Fair Grounds.

Many Secured Bargains Yesterday
at the Fair Grounds.
Many buyers visited the fair grounds
yesterday. Their mission was the pur-
chase of some of the wares that are
offered for sale by the exhibitors who
were still on the grounds. Quite
number of the visitors returned exult-
ing over the bargains they had found
and congratulating themselves upon
having secured such splendid commo-
dities. These represent the best of the
land, having been entered in contest
for premiums, and those securing them
may well consider themselves lucky.
Country cured hams, bacon, meats,
lard, potatoes, preserves, jellies, and
many other things were in demand.
Other than agricultural exhibitors
found a demand for articles of their
exhibits also, and many sales were
made. Many of the exhibitors are still
at the grounds, and they will be glad
to receive further buyers to-day.
Watchmen are still maintained at the
Fair grounds by the Fair Association
for the protection of the exhibitors
property 1t is expected that 1t will be
yet two days before all the exhib-
its are removed. r' ~
Many premiums were paid during the
afternoon. Mr.. B. II. Levy, treasurer
Of the association, was at the Fair
grounds for the purpose. The payments
we're of premiums that were awarded
during the latter days OF the Fair
The race horses are gradually getting
away. Some have been shipped. There
are still about fifty at the grounds.

SURVEYS FOR PAVING.
Estimates Being Made for Lincoln,
Habersham and Price Streets.

Estimates Being Made for Lincoln.
Habersham and Price Streets.
The Streets and Lanes Committee of
the City Council has taken up the ques-
ton of paving one of the north-and-
south streets east of Bull street next
year. There has been nothing definite
done as yet but there seems to be a
general belief that one of the streets
will have vitrified brick substituted for
the sand through which traffic must
now move.
Lincoln, Habersham or Price will be
paved. AS yet, it has not been deter
mined which it will be. This is a mat
ter that will be dependent largely up
on the appropriation that is made for
next years paving. Surveys have been
made by the city engineer of all three
streets and he will submit estimates as
to the quantity of material that would
be required for the work.
The city is doing no paving now. The
first work the paving force will take
up will be that of West Broad street.
between Stone and Gwinnett, which Is
to be commenced soon after Jan. 1.

SWINDLER AGAIN IN PRISON.
Former Victim Told Police OF
Clever German Musician.

Clever German Musician.
H. G. Jacobson, a clever swindler ar
rested in Savannah on four charges
last April, and who served six months
for the tricks that he turned here, is
under arrest in Denton, Tex, on two
charges of forgery. This information
was furnished the police yesterday by
Mr.. Howard v. Murphy of New York,
who was one of Jacobson's victims.
Mr.. Murphy travels for Richard
Hudnut's perfume house, and came to
Savannah from Jacksonville with
jacobson last summer. Jacobson said
that he represented the Bush and Gerts
Piano and Organ Company, and was
an accomplished performer on the pi-
ano. He also had a smooth tongue and
by sending letters and kilograms to
himself convinced Mr.. Murphy that he
was missing his check at each stopping
place, and thus secured a loan.
Jacobson borrowed $40 from Mr.. Muir
ply with which to come to this city,
made another touch for the same
amount after he reached here, and as
a parting shot stole SO The swindler
was arrested at Guyton by Detective
Murphy, who was accompanied by the
perfume drummer. 1t then developed
that the man had beat Proprietor Neil
Gildea of the Alhambra out of ticket
from Fernandina, and an additional
charge of cheating and swindling was
entered against him. He was also
charged with beating his board bill at
the De Soto Hotel.
The four charges against the prison
er were punched, and he was let down
with a sentence of only six months.
Mr. Murphy saw Jacobson marched off
with negro convicts, and felt sorry for
the man. He made an investigation of
Jacobson's past, with view to paying
his fine if it should have transpired
that it was his first offense. Mr.. Muir
ply learned that while jacobson was
a splendid piano salesman, he had been
crooked before and the Dallas author
tiles stated that he was wanted in
Denton. Mr.. Murphy told the Dallas
officers of Jacobson's arrest, and a man
was sent here to take him in charge
when his time expired, This was done
quietly. The piano man was a smooth
swindler, and the travelling man
thought that Superintendent Reilly
might be interested to know something
about him after his departure from
this city. Jacobson has not yet been
tried on the charges held against him
in Texas.

FOR MINERAL EXHIBIT.
City Council VIII Meet To-day to
Consider the Offer.

A meeting of the City Council will
be held to-day at 1890 o'clock for the
consideration of the offer made by
Capt. T. ]. Lyon of Gainesville, who
will present to the city the mineral ex-
hibit that was made at the State Fair
by Barlow county. 1t has been practi-
cally agreed among the Aldermen who
have discussed the tender that the city
should accept the exhibit, the only
question having been as to where it
should be placed after it becomes the
property of the city.
Mayor Myers thinks it not unlikely
that stall in the city market may be
agreed upon as a suitable location for
the exhibit. There are several vacant
spaces that are adapted to such a pur-
pose, and one of them may be suitably
fitted up for the exhibit. A special
meeting of Council was called for the
consideration of the matter because
Capt. Lyon is anxious to return home.

widower of 48, and each was well situ-

connect with special railway and

Queenstown is 2,s49 miles. Southamp-
ton 3.2l3 miles. The objection to the
new route that instantly suggests it
self is that after the passengers have
landed a long and dreary journey will

tion may be met partly by fast trains

Judge Brown Says the Seal Is Being Fast
Exterminated.


Judge Melville G. Brown came all the
way from Juneau, Alaska, distance
of 5000 miles, to attend the meeting of
the American Bar Association in Den
yer. Prior to his appointment to the
bench of the District Court of Alaska
fifteen months ago, Judge Brown was
q practitioner of Laramie, Wyoming.
The judge was interviewed while In
Denver by a Republican reporter and
said:
alaska has no future aside from it's
mining interests and fisheries. Its min
eral wealth is still an unmeasured
quantity. Its fisheries are the largest
in the world and still admit of develop
ment. The seal industry is thing of
the past with citizens of the United
States in Alaska. Inside of five years
not seal will remain on its shores.
Our treaties with foreign countries on
the subject of seal hunting give aliens
practically all rights, while as effectu-
ally denying the same rights to citizens
of this country. Hunted in season and
out. the seal is rapidly being extermin-
ated and soon will become more of a
curiosity than the American buffalo,"
During the last year Judge Brown
disposed of more than 800 cases, in
vOlving questions of mining, admiralty,
commercial and criminal law. He says
that Alaska is not Il place one might
