The British Mule Case.
It is understood that the legal pro
ceedings whicr the Boer -%presenta-
lives in the United States have insti-
tuted at New Orleans in the hope of
stopping the sale and shipment of
horses. mules, and other supplies to
the British Government for use in
South Africa. are greatly annoying the
Administration. Letters from Beer
sympathiZers in all parts Of the country
protesting against the practice of per
hitting England to buy fOodstuffs and
animals in the United States for the
use Of her army in South Africa, are
said 10 have deIuged the White House
and the State Department for weeks,
ard the injunction suit is calculated 10
increase the agitation.
The DIRECTORS are perhaps not aware
that without the exercise of arbitrary
power, a departure from the fixed prin
ciples of international law. and from
all American precedent, this Govern
ment could not meet the views and
wishes of the Beers and their friends
in this matter. Moreover. extensive ag-
ricultural and business interests would
have a right to and would resent an in
reference with commerce never before
Attempted or thought Of in similar cir
cumstances.
The right Of American citizens when
other nations are at war, to trade with
either or both beIligerents, has never
been questioned by this Government
It is for the bclligerert believing itself
harmed to intercept the cargoes des-
tined for the use of its enemy. This
rule, to be sure, works a hardship TO
the Beers. They have no ships and
cannot interfere with England on the
seas. while the latter can and has ar
rested many vessels carrying arms and
supplies for them, intended to be ship
ped into the TransvaaI from Lourenco
Marquee.
But merely because the American
people largely sympathlze with the
South African States in their struggle
for independence, the Cove. nnent can
not be expected to violate or suspend
the practice Of this and other advanced
nations under International law. To do
so would be 10 invite certain roprisaIs

From statistics collected by the Amer
lean Grocer it appears that the con
sumption of spirituous liquors IN the
United States il The year 1909, was one
gallon and tweuty-seven one-hundradths
compared with one and forty One-hun-
dredths IN 1s9i-a decrease. But there
was more than a corresponding increase
in the consumption Of the harmless. nee
cssary American national beverage, beer.
II mounted up from fifteen gallons and
thirty one-hgndredths in 1891 10 sixteen
gallons and one One-hundredth per capita.
The reasonable deduction would seem TO
be that the country IS growing steadily
more temperate.

DEATH OF A BRIGHT CHILD.
Little Louis II. Robinson, Jr., Died
Mt TeIfair Hospital

Mt Te1fair Hospital.
An unusually sad death that occurred
yesterday was that of Louis r. Robinson,
Jr', the S-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
M. e. Robinson. He died at the Tefair
Hospital where he had been taken for an
operation. Two years ago the child de-
veloped a case of scarlet fever, and
though by careful nursing he recovered
the malignant disease had so affect
ed his brain that an operation became
necessary and was performed. Ten days
later second operation was performed,
and again. within the same space of
time, third.
Five weeks ago the same trouble again
developed and a fourth operation was
made; week ago it was discovered that
am abcess had been formed on the brain,
and that it must he removed if the child's
life was to be saved. Yesterday was
decided on for the operation, and the lad
was taken to the hospital, but died a
few minutes before the time set for the
effort to remove the cause of his trouble.
Little Louis, who was pupil of the
Thirty-eighth Street School, was a bright
boy, and had very many friends whose
sympathy goes out to his parents in their
loss.
The funeral will take place this after
noon at o'clock at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Robinson, No. 22O5 Bull street Rev.
DR.. l. z. Mendes will conduct the cere-
monies The burial will be made in Lau-
rel Grove Cemetery. The following will
be the pallbearers: Messrs. d. ]. Rosen-
helm, Louis ]. Roos, c. NJ. Chandler, Jr.,

Mr. ". w. Starr, still in the character of
r,ok which he had played with such per-
lection of result, and in negro dialect
hat would have driven half the perform
ors on the stage wild with envy, returned
thanks TO hosts and guests alike for the
insti,e they had done his viands.
The other speeches, in more serious
vein were congratulatory of the link be-
tween city and country made by the COM
nletion of the road. Civilization, these
lneeches said, could ofttimes be measured
b,. the degree of ease of communicat ton
between separated localities. Both city
and country should rejoice whenever a
new link in this chain of intercourse was
forged.
The commissioners were in a jovial and
kindly mood after they had dned and
they gave ready assent to the request
If the committee that the convicts, who
had builded the last stretch of road be
permitted to partake of the remnants of
tnc feast. The people of Pooler were anx-
ious that everybody who had had a hand
in giving them easy communication with
the city should share their hospitality.
The barbecue had been provided for on
the scale of ample generosity that is GUS
tomary on such occasions and there was
three times as much as those who sat at
Inc tables could possibly have eaten. The
dusky and dusty soldiers of this particu-
lar company of "Dales Cadets" were
lnarched(up to tables that still groaned
beneath the weight of things good to eat
and upon which new quarters of meat
were constantly placed.
They dined with an appetite and free
dom from care that their condition did
not interfere with in the least. They
laughed and chartered with suppressed
excitement and showed rows of snow
white teeth in grins of satisfaction. They
feasted to their hearts content, and the
commissioners and their guests drove
away from the scene and left them still
eating.

SPLIT OVER BUFFALO RATES.
Two of the Roads Are Selling Lower
Than the other Two.

nan tHe Otuef IWOs
The passenger departments of the rail
lines entering Savannah may have nice
time of it before they settle a matter of
round trip rates to Buffalo, where the
Pan-American Exposition is to be held.
The Plant System and the Southern Rail-
way find themselves in rather an I'm
pleasant position, as the Seaboard Air
Line and the Central Railroad have cut
the rate down considerably below them.
1t is either a case of the Plant System
and the Southern coming down to the
rates of the Seaboard and the Central,
or of forcing the Seaboard and the Gen.
ual up to their rates.
BY the Southern and the Plant System,
the round trip rate is $42 20, while by the
oeaboard and the Central it is $37 10. The
seaboard fixed the rate at the latter
hsure, and the Central promptly met II.
Inc Plant System and the Southern thus
lar however, stand pat, and il remains
10 be seen what they will do.
The Seaboard is a free lance in the
matter of rates, and has long been so
regarded. 1t rather follows it's own ideas
IN such matters. The roads have a way

is that this season it will be more popular
than ever, as four-ffths of the picnics

them is that of the Epworth Methodist

THREE COLORED LUNATICS,
Cnbmnn BristOw Imagines That He
Is the Holy Ghost.

is the HOLY Ghost.
Three negro unfortunates were tried
in the county Jail yesterday afternoon by
a jury from the Court of Ordinary, and
we're adjudged insane. Those whom the
jury declared to be irresponsible for their
acts are Cato Bristow, Bessie Sanders
and Bill Garrison.
Bristow is well known Eastside cab
man and is raving maniac. He had to
be removed from a padded cell for the
reason that he burst the pads, as was
mentioned in the Morning News. The af-
fcted man is married and financially is
fairly well off. His wife was one of the
witnesses before the jury. She stated
that her husband had attended several
revival services, and that he had lost his
mind on account of religion. He imagined
himself the Holy Ghost and told her that
he had been called to take one of the
Savannah pulpits. Another witness, a
fellow cabman, stated that Bristow was
in the habit of drinking, and this proba-
bly, had something to do with UNDERMINE
ing his brain. The man was naked when
visited by the jury, and insisted on de-
liyering a sermon on the power of the
Holy Ghost.
The Sanders woman is not so dangerous,
and claims to see large numbers of white
horses. She is not violently insane on
any one subject. Garrison is an aged ne
gro, and is harmless to all appearances.
1t is not believed that he will live to
reach the asylum at Milledgeville.
