her to bear away to her imaginary
aunts.
Young Desboullions asked when
the woman left who she was and was
told she was Miss Williams. Then
it dawned upon him that there was
no such person and search was in
stituted, but the woman was not
found As q matter of fact she was
living in & fiat on the same block
where her victims dill business the
whole time.
A craze for having her name ap-
pear IN print was her undoing. She
went to Atlanta and stopped at the
Kimbsll house. For the purpose of
letting her friends SEQ that she was
being received by the top of society
she wrote q story to the Savannah
Morning News telling all about
swell wedding It which she was
present as an attendant. To make
the story more graphic she told of a
pair of horses running away hitched
to carriage in which were two at
tendants, the names used being the
most prominent families in the State,
and the couple being killed. The
whole story was filed with we'll
known Georgia names, but with
strange initials, the signature to the
story beng 'Mrs. g. W. Williams"
The affair was Investigated and
found by the authorities to be en-
tirely imaginary, the dramatis per-
sonae being without existence.
On reading the story the solicitor
general deducted that Miss deChrist
was the Diamond Queen" by com.
parison of the writing in the letter
to The News and the note left at the
jewelry store. She was arrested in
Atlanta and confessed. She was ta-
ken back to Savannah, where she
told endless conflicting stories which
led to the popular opinion that she
was insane and caused the issuing of
writ of lunacy at the instigation OF
! her mother.
Mamie deChrist was born of hum
bic parentsge in that part OF Sa-
vsnnah known as Thunderbolt, but
| now she denies her mother. The
| question as to her sanity will be de
cided either this afternoon or to-
morrow and on this decision hangs
her future life-in prison as a crlml-
| nal or the mad house as maniac.

FIND BOGUS SODA FLAVoRS.
There Arc More Substitutes for Va
niIIa Than for Any Other
Extract.

The chemist and the prevention of
sale of adulterated and impure food
have put their rejected brand on an
other favorite beverage. Patrons OF
the soda fountain who have been
taught to ask for lemon or vanilla
finvoring, for the alleged reason that
those sirups were less liable than 9TH
ers to adulteration, will be surprised
at the assertion that there is no ex-
tract for which substitutes are more
often used t:ian vanilla. This is said
on the authority of the Massachusetts
board of heath. The true vanilla bean
costs from $l2 TO SIG per pound, and
were there no substitute it could not
be used so freely and so extensively
as a present. Nanillin. the active prop
erty OF the extract, can be made from
other substances at cost of about
two dollars per gallon. The artificial
compound is chemically identical with
the yanillin found in the true vanilla
extract, and therefore has come to be
used extensively by manufacturers and
dealers. 1t has been made for COM
mercial purposes from turpentine,
but more satisfactory results are OBJ
taihed from oil of cloves or benzoic
acid, and It Is now extracted chiefly
from these. 1t is considered harmless
when taken in small quantities and has
been found to possess certain medici-
nal properties. Experiments on frogs
, with large quantities have, however,
caused spinal commissions. There is
some comfort for confirmed spda wa
ter drinkers. and a general warning
for others. in the further statement by
the Massachusetts authorities that the
metallic contamination of the watei
used in glass of soda Is far iiiere
detrimental 10 health than any adul-
teration of the fayoring sirup.

There is an ordinance against any

in any street or alley in the city and a

not seen 1t to enforce this ordinance

every street and alley in the city to

and should be used by the public. All
streets and alleys not opened or OBJ
