ROBBED OF A BIG WAD.
Resident of Liberty County Touched
for 5000 and Coat.

for 5000 and Coat.
While under the influence of liquor,
F. T. Johnson, a resident of Liberty
county, was robbed of his coat and
$500 in cash night before last. The
man himself made this report at po-
lice headquarters yesterday morning,
and asked that some effort be made
to recover his money.
Just how he lost the large sum or
in what part of the city it was stolen
Johnson could not tell. He remem-
bered nothing at all about the incident
and only knew that when he recovered
his senses he was minus his coat and
large wad. Johnson was accompanied
to police headquarters by ]. r. Thomp-
son of No. 1917 West Broad street, en-
ployed by the Savannah Electric Com
pany.
Johnson had come to him in a cab
and told him of his loss. The two
men went at once to police headquar-
ters and made the robbery known to
the desk sergeant on duty. The po-
lice have absolutely no idea where
Johnson went while in his intoxicated
state, and have very little hope of be-
ing able to find the missing cash. The
Liberty county man can throw no
light on the subject, and it is not
likely that he will ever recover bis
property.

INFANT BRUTALITY CH0KED.
Infant Unconscious After the As
sauIt.

Police Looking for Negro Who Left
Infant Unconscious After the As
sauIt.
For choking his TWO months old baby
into insensibility and fracturing its
left clavicle, the police are looking
for Oscare Russell, a negro who has
been living at No. 13 J. street, in sun
ny Side. The horrible crime is alleged
To have been committed night before
last. but was not made known until
yesterday.
The child's mother. Mary Baker.
called at the Office of Dr. Henry T.
Adams and told Of the assault. The
woman carried the unconscious infant
with her and the injuries We're tenn
porarily dressed. Later the physician
made a thorough examination of the
child at the mothers house
I'm sunny Side. The throat was still
swollen. the face. was discolored and
the collar bone was broken. The in
FAINT did not regain consciousness and
its condition is regarded as critical.
The mother Of the child stated that
her husband choked the baby one day
last week and nearly killed it at that
time, She arrived on the scene just
in time TO save the child's life. The
woman alleges that she left the house
for a few minutes Monday night and
that her husband was in the room
with the infant She had not dreamed
that he would again attack the baby
and was surprised upon her return to
find her husband absent and the child
unconscious. \ severe choking had
been administered to the infant for
the second time.
a motive for the brutal attack on
the two-months-old.b babe could not be
offered by the woman and the assault
is a rather mysterious one. Just what
reason Russell could have had in
wanting to choke his baby to death
cannot be imagined. 1t was pointed
out that if he simply desired to rid
himself Of the burden of having to care
for the baby he would have adopted
some other plan in an attempt to kill
it. DR.. Adams concluded from what
he ascertained from the mother that
Russell must be a maniac. The physi-
clan could under no other hypothesis
account for the vicious assault on an
infant.

WILL STUDY FLORIDA SPONGE.
Prof. Forester of Minneapolis Pro-
poses Scientific Cultivation.

Dr. J. Y. Forester, a naturalist of
Minneapolis, Mimi. is in the city en-
route to the Florida keys, to inspect
and examine the sponge industry there,
with the view of propagation and mar
keting from a point of science.
DR.. Forester, in explaining his mis-
sion yesterday. said that the sponge
industry on the Florida coast is de-
creasing, and that unless something is
done in the matter of cultivating Them
that the business will before many
years become extinct, and it is to
study the sponge and its life that he
is going to the Peninsula State.
The Florida sponge, he said, is the
finest sponge in the world, and is al
ways in demand. He visited the state
two years ago, and gave this matter
his attention, and after a careful study
he is confident that the industry can
be improved and made more profitable
than now by cultivation. He will en-
ploy a boat and crew, and will visit
the numerous beds, securing speci-
mems and determining which is the
best for propagation. These he will
plant in a certain place and watch
their growth, carefully studying and
determining at what stage OF growth
Ihey are pest Tor gathering. If his
experiments are satisfactory, a com
pany will be formed for the purpose
OF growing them and placing on the
market.
DR.. Forester also has an improved
idea for curing the sponges which will
be an Improvement of the old and
present way of gathering and penning,
and the manner in which they are
ridden of animal life and made serv-
iceable. This process he would not dis
cuss, as no experiment has yet been
made, and he does not care to adj
vance it until certain of its success.
He will leave this morning for Punta
Gorda, and from there will conduct
his experiments

MORE COMPLAINTS
AGAINST COAL SMOKE.

The attention of the Central Railway
has again been directed to the protest
of business men on the north side of
Bay street. who object to the coal
smoke and SCOT that rises from the To-
comotives that run on the River street
track. Some time ago a complaint was
made, and the matter was referred to
the Central Railway. The answer came
that the company had the matter un-
der advisement. Yesterday Mr. H. M.
Stoddard called on Acting Mayor Dix
on asking that something he done. as
the unpleasant effects are still noted.
A letter calling the attention of the
president of the company to the fact
that the complaints are still being
made, was written by the Acting May

Mrs Waller Will be examined with
great pleasure by her guests and by
other visitors who are especially in

father companion in arms and most
intimate friend. Lafayette
In Mrs. Walters possession, too, is
very handsome miniature of George
Washington Greene. the son of Gen.
Greene. This was painted not long be-
lore the young man was drowned in
the savannah river. 1t was the work

lies buried in Colonial Cemetery. The
remains of young Greene We're inferred
in the vault with those Of the father,
and now the remains of both are to
be committed to the same vault be-
meath the Greene monument.
Mr.. Waller is exhibiting to those in
terested an origintl badge. with the
original ribbon, of the Society Of the
