he was under arrest whalen ex-
claimed: This is outrageous. II Is
all spite work"
Beckoning to his WIFE he told her
that he has was under arrest, but
not to be afraid, as he would not be
locked up. Tears sprang TO her eyes.
and Il was evident that she was on the
verge Of a collapse.
The sheriff accompanied whalen TO
his room and remained closeted with
him for an hour. Bail was furnished.
Whalen's mother resides at Devon,
near Philadelphia. where she has a
fine country place. She is the widow
of the late THOMAS W. Evans, the

PROTECTION FROM SANDS.
Government Has Parties working
for Sea Coasts Aid.

Government Has Parties working
for sea Coasts Aid.
The government is about to give
some attention to the protection of sea-
coast property from the shifting sands.
Tybee Island offers an excellent OPP
portunity for experiments, and a field
party from the Bureau of Forestry
may visit the island.
Vegetation near the beach on Tybee
is but very sparse, and the sands have
free play. Dunes form here and there,
only to be washed or blown away and
formed somewhere else. 1t has long
been known that vegetation would
mean protection, and some of the
property owners on the island have
successfully undertaken to establish
grass plats. This plan has been fol-
lowed by Proprietor Charles F. Gra-
ham of the Tybee Hotel, who, however,
had to have soil transported from Sa-
vannah to the island before he could
manage to convert the stretches of
sand Immediately around the hotel
into a lawn.
At Fort Screven the culture of grass
was tried with Indifferent success. A
green slope was wanted. This was
partially because of appearances, but
blowing into the guns and threatening
their mechanisms.
The protection of valuable property
from the encroachment of shifting sand
dunes is becoming an important prob
lem in some portions of the country.
The regions most severely affected are
the Atlantic and Pacific coasts, the
lake district of Michigan, and the CO.
lumbia river district of Washington
and Oregon
Two field parties from the Bureau of
Forestry are at work on this problem.
One will investigate the worst dune
districts along the Atlantic Coast, and
will study carefully the grasses,
shrubs and trees that can be used
either for temporary or permanent re-
tention of the sand dunes, and will
also inquire into other methods of
holding the active dunes, or changing
their direction. Very successful work
in holding the sand by grass and
shrub planting has already been done
by the state of Massachusetts on a
portion of Cape Cod known as the
Province Lands"
The problem along the Columbia
river is somewhat different from that
along the Atlantic Coast, owing to the
different origin and character of the
sand. 1t is expected, however, that
the control of the sand there, like that
of the coast sand, can be effected by
means of grass or shrub planting, and
afterwards by forestation. Primarily
the object of controlling the sand is
to protect valuable property which is
endangered by The dunes. The bureau
has undertaken this work in order to
give practical assistance to persons
VINO have requested its aid in the pro-.
lection of their property.

MERGERS OF RAILWAYS.
Do Not Appeal to Acting Mayor as "A
Thing to Fear.

10
"I regard railway consultations in
many cases as for the best interests of
points reached by the lines said Act
ing Mayor Dixon yesterday. II do not
know just what would be done, of
course, but I think Savannah would be
helped by the acquisition of the Cen
trail Railway by the st. Louis and San
Francisco.
apart from what might be expect
ed in the development of the port and
the increase in it's shipping interests
letter rates would be secured. The
longer and more powerful a line is and
the more important the points it
reaches. the lower will be the rates,
ard the greater will be the efforts to
work to the advantage of terminal
points. With Savannah as the port of
the st. Louis and San Francisco, 1 be-
lieve the city would reap a great adj
vantage.
when the Southbound Railroad was
built there was talk that better rates
would be secured because of the COM
petition that would result On the con-
trary, combinations were at once made
to keep rates up Consultations mean
the disruption of combinations and
better rail rates as a result. I believe
the acquisition of the Plant System by
the Atlantic Coast Line will mean bet
ter rates for Savannah and greater adj
vantages for it as shipping plant
Where the most advantageous trans
portation rates can be secured business
enterprises will be established, and the
growth of such place may be relied

MUTUAL LIFE OF KENTUCKY.
Company Well Known Here Absorb
ed by Illinois Concern.


1t will be Of interest to number of
Savannahians to know that the Mu-
tual Life of Kentucky, an insurance
company which formerly maintained
an office in Savannah, and which is
sued a number of policies in this city
and vicinity, has been absorbed by the
Illinois Life of Chicago.
1t is stated by an insurance author
ity that: THE exact price paid for
the 100000 of stock has not been au-
thoritatiVely stated but is said to have
been $l65 per share, the par value be-
ing 300. The policy contracts of the
Mutual are assumed by the Illinois
Life of course and the existing agency
contracts 1t is said will be continued
by the latter, which will maintain a
branch office in Louisville to facilitate
the handling of the Southern business
OF the Mutual. 1t is said on apparently
good authority that L. B. Williamson.
the agency manager of the Mutual
Will be general superintendent of the
consolidated agencies of the two COM
panies, for which he is well qualified.
ana that vigorous push for new bust
ness Will be made in the South as well
as elsewhere. The amount of insur
ance In force in the Mutual is about
SlS'O00,OOO, which added to the business
OF the Illinois will make a total of
about $S5.000000, while the combined
assets, taking the figures of Jan. :
1902. are $S,S14,507 which will very prob
ably reach total of 100000 by Dec.
81 next.
1t cannot be learned what amount of
business was done by the Kentucky
Mutual In Savannah, but it is known
that many policies were taken out in
1t in Savannah, and in the territory
of which Savannah was the headouar
tiers, and which included Waycross
Fitzgerald and other of the towns of
that vicinity.

"DREssED IN NUDE CONDITION"
The Charge Against Two Women at
Police Barracks.

Police Barracks.
Call your old parol and try to lock
me up; 1 amt scared of none of your
arresting!"
That was the tone of defiance which
Margaret Bryan answered Officer Nc
Carthy yesterday morning when he
threatened her with arrest for running
about the street in a half dressed con-
dition. The officer quickly followed her
suggestion, called for the patrol wagon
and took her, together with a COM
panion as loosely gowned as she, to
the barracks.
There charge of violation of a city
ordinance by being dressed in a nude
condition was entered against both
women. The arrest was made near the
corner of East Broad and Houston
street shortly after midday The two
women were clad only in Mother
Hubbards." When the officer ordered
them in the house, the taunt was
thrown in his teeth. At the barracks
it was found that the Bryan woman
was naturally a little shy of BRAIN
matter, and that considerable trouble
had been experienced heretofore in
keeping her in the house. Her com
panion gave bond and was released un-
til the trial before the Recorder this
morning.
