ARE HAVING QUIET TIME.
Police Believe That 1t Is the Calm
Before the Storm.

Not in a long while have the police
experienced such a tranquil wave as is
now passing over the city. Crimes of
violence are few and far between. and
even for disorderly conduct very few
arrests are being made.
Yesterdays session of Police Court
was dull and uninteresting and did not
last fifteen minutes. Although the pa
trolmen are having an easy time of it
just at present, they prefer to have
a little bit more excitement. No one
understands better than do the police
that crime travels in cycles, and when
there is an outbreak it will last for
quite while.
The officers at police headquarters
figure it out that a disorderly period
is about due. and that something will
happen somewhere before the coming
week gets fairly started. The patrol
men are a superstitious lot in this re-
spect but the police records bear them
out in the contentious. The number of
arrests, they figure, will increase daily
for two or three weeks, and then will
come another quiet spell until the hol-
iday season opens. Then the patrol
men will have their hands full until
the new year. They are taking adj
vantage of the present reign of tran
guilty

SENSATIONAL ISLANDER SUIT.
Charges Involving Moral Turpitude,
and other Things, Aired In Court.

Charges Involving Moral Turpitude,
and other Things, Aired In Court.
A sensational Islander and libel suit
was filed yesterday morning in tile City
Court. The plaintiff is T. C. Hamilton
and the defendant, Mrs Matte Daniels
proprietress of the Savannah House
There are charges in the petition that
do not permit of repetition in print
The plaintiff says that the charges
made against him by his landlady were
malicious and slanderous, and untrue
and AYERS that he has been damaged
by them to the amount of $4,000.
The particular charge which he
claims was hurled at him, impugning
his morals in the severest and most
denunciatory language, was made, he
alleges, in the presence of four ladies,
and as many gentlemen, at the dining
table. These are the charges which
do not look well in print
In addition to this, he alleges that
she dubbed him a bum, a gambler and
a dirty dog and wrote a note to his
employer making, in the language OF
the petition, vile and untrue charges.
More than this, he alleges, she has TAX
en- advantage of every opportunity,
when speaking of him, to villify his
name.
Mrs. Daniels charges, he says, are
all untrue, and made with the know
ledge of their falsity, wherefore he
asks that the defendant be made t.,
pay him $4,000 damages. The petition
was filed in the office of the clerk of
the City Court yesterday morning.
Thomas L. Hill represents the plaintiff.

HUNT FOR DIAMONDS.

Arrest of Crook in Atlanta ReVivcs
SnNannah's Diamond Queen.
The arrest in Atlanta of DR.. r. H.
Thomas, a man with several aliases.
for swindling firm of jewelers.. has
revived interest in the Diamond Queen,
who so easily worked Theus Bros. and
Desbouillons out of valuable gems in
this city several months ago. Mr..
Theus received information from At
lanta yesterday morning that is con-
sidered a strong clue towards solving
the mystery surrounding the thefts in
Savannah.
Both Mr.. Theus and Mr.. Desbouil-
Ions think that they are at last on
the right track, and Superintendent
Reilly and his men have again gone to
work on the case. Thomas has been
indicted in Atlanta for three of his
crimes and the Savannah jewelers. are
in hopes that they will be able to con-
meet him in some way with the two
robberies in this city. He is alleged to
have done some diamond stealing in
Birmingham and may be wanted in
other cities.
In Atlanta Thomas is held for false
ly representing another, for larceny af-
ter trust and for forgery. He is a mar
ried man and his wife was with him
when he was arrested. She was arrest
ed along with her husband, but made
a full statement concerning her hus-
bands crimes, and was released on her
own recognizance. Mrs Thomas was
photographed at police headquarters in
Atlanta, and her picture appeared in
Atlanta newspapers. Copies We're re-
ceived in Savannah yesterday morning
After her release Mrs. Thomas left
Atlanta for Winder. accompanied by
her father, DR. S. A. Foster. Before
leaving she stated to friend that she
never wanted to see her husband again.
Although the woman told the officers.
her father and the newspapers that her
husband was guilty, Thomas has never
preathed word against her.
She is a lovely woman" he saws
"and has had nothing to do with anv
OF these things. / don't see how any
one could suspect her"
After Mr.. Desbouillons and Mr.. Theus
had compared notes yesterday the clue
was turned over to Supt. of Police Owen
Kelly. In the face of the statements
made by the jewelers. the police CHIEF
believes that he is at last on the right
trail. A full description of the dia
monds taken in this city was made out
and forwarded at once to the Atlanta
police in the hope that the officers in
that city will be able to locate the
gems.

BUT IT DOESN'T.
Many Have the Erroneous
Idea that Fat Makes Fat.
One Reason OF Cod Liver OILS POpu-
laTity.
Nevertheless a Decidedly Wrong
Impression.

Fat taken into the stomach does not
make fat. Thousands of physicians
have prescribed cod liver oil for vast
ing diseases and all troubles that show
themselves in a decline of weight.
Physicians know that the fat or grease
is not what is necessary to make fat
Of tissue They also know that it is
one of the main things that make cod
liver oil impractical in many cases.
The fat is too rich to be digested by a
stomach weakened by disease.
When cod liver oil is given, often
the oil passes from the body in exact
" the same state in which it is re-
ceived. The reason doctors prescribe
cod liver oil is that it contains certain
curative properties. 1t is to take ad-
vantage of these same curative prop
critics that they have so often tried to
force their patients to take this hor-
rible, greasy, vile-smelling, nauseating
remedy.
There are but few people who have
not had experience in one way or an
other with cod liver oil, and even the
thought of its smell is enough to cause
a shudder. When we think of these
things it is not strange that every one
in our city is sounding the praise of
Vinol.
Vinol which Mr.. knight of Knights
solution of an embarra ssing puzzle that
physicians have had to contend with
for years. Much has been said in the
past few davs of this wonderful dis
covery and yet it woul be impossible
to say too much in its praise.
Vinol, Wine of Cod Liver Oil, will
indeed prove itself to be a Godsend Of
the most precious kind. AS we have
described it before. there is no need
now of entering into the subject at
length; but just remember that in vi
mol you can procure all the medicinal
properties or curative principles that
make cod liver oil famous, but without
the greasy fat Vinol contains just the
right amount of the active medicinal
properties of the Gods liver that is
necessary for the cure of such diseases
as cod liver oil has been prescribed for
This is a subject that every one
should become familiar with and we
recommend that you make inquiries of
your druggist in regard to Vinol, or If
you will call on Mr.. Knight, who has
associated himself with the Boston
chemists who are preparing this RENE
dy, he will gladly give any one all ex-
plantations that may be desired in re-
gard to this subject.

The Tie Thai BINDS.
Hymenean Inclination Was Strong
in October.

That the Hymenean inclination
among the white population has, for
some unaccountable reason, been pro-
nounced during the past month is evi-
denced best by the unusually large
number of marriage licenses issued by
the Ordinary to that portion of the
population. As a rule the number of
licenses issued to the negroes is twice
as large as to the whites, and often
three times as large, but during the
thirty-One days just passed, the num-
Der of black licenses" as they are
called, is barely in excess of the whites.
The total number of licenses issued
during the month was sixty
six. of which number thirty-one
were to white couples. This
is about the same number as was is
sued in October, 1901, though in that
month the number of white marriage
certificates was less than half of the
black.
During the ten months just passed
the number of individuals who forsook
the state of single blessedness for the
felicitous bans of wedlock-to hold and
to have to holds 1.502, the number
being more than one a week less than
the record last year. 1t is a singular
five Saturdays, the number of mar
riages is always about 20 per cent.
larger than otherwise. This is ac-
counted for by the fact that the work
ing class. and more especially the ne
groes, wait until payday to purchase
the required license.
Negroes. though more often unfortu-
nate in their matrimonial ventures,
look upon the question more philosoph-
ically than the white people. Strictly
as a contract they consider the mat
ter. Improbable as 1t may seem,
many negroes who go to the Ordinary's
office with the intention of purchasing
a license to step off, go away and
never return because the price for the
paper does not justify the step.
Only yesterday an old negro walked
in the office. and going to the desk
where the licenses are issued, laid
down the requisite amount, saying,
Give me one more, Mr.. Creamer-this
is my fourth and last; I've had two
bad ones and a good one, and am GO
ing to see If / can come out even"
