STOLE NEGROES GOLD.
Glittering Metal Was snatcheG
From LabOrer's Hand.

Glittering Metal Was Snatched
From LabOrer's Hand.
Probably because he was paid off in
gold, and the yellow metal was more
tempting than silver, or greenbacks,
Gus Thompson, colored, of No. SIG
CASTOR street, west, was robbed last
night. The negro lost $40 and made a
report of the theft to the desk SER
geant at police headquarters.
Thompson had been at work near
Bruton Hill, east of the city, and his
weeks salary of $40 was given him in
the shape of bright, shining gold
piece. The negros eyes sparkled, along
with the metal, as he wendell his way
through the dangerous hooks of the
East Side. He stated to the police
that he stopped for minute, only an
instant, he said. at a house in the
Fort, and that then and there he was
touched for the piece of yellow metal
that he had earned.
He was talking to a woman, he re-
lated, when man seized the glitter
ing coin from his hand and darted
down the street. Thompson failed to
explain just why he had the money in
his hand. and the police asked for no
explanation. They endeavored in vain
last night to locate the guilty person,
but will do everything possible to To-
cate the culprit, and recover Thomp-
sons coin.

Mrs. DOnnelly Had Nothing to Do
With Last Shipment of Servants.
The publication of story yesterday
that twenty servant girls, who went to
New York on the Ocean Steamship
Company's City of Augusta, were cared
for, during their brief stay in the city,
by Mrs. r. A. Donnelly of No. 220
West Broad street. was vigorously de-
MED by that lady last night.
AS the Morning News had announced,
Mrs. Donnelly represented a New York
intelligence bureau, until she discov-
cred that she would be required to take
out a license for $500. Then she went
out of business, pending advices from
the concern that she represented. These
advices have not yet arrived, and Mrs
Donnelly is now no longer engaged in
the business of securing competent do
mestics for service in the North. In
deed she stated last night, she was
as much surprised to learn of the ship
ment of servants as any one else, who
CHANGED to read the alleged statement
of facts. The superintendent of police
is still keeping his eyes open, and those
who do the business of an immigration
agent in Savannah will have to take
out. licenses, or suffer the conse-
quenceS.

ton for this purpose is one that bids

the giving of what may be termed a.
free circus. The company is known
as Leon and His Donkey" which
consists of the trainer and some three
animals who are said to give very
clever performance. The company
will show in Savannah for about a

IN FACE OF POLICE
PISTOL WAS FIRED.
Uniformed Men ut Headquarters
Were Stirred Into Action.

Uniformed Men at Headquarters
Were Stirred Into Action.
The firing of a pistol shot on Ogle-
thorpe avenue, opposite police head
quarters, shortly after o'clock last
night, occasioned considerable excite
ment among the residents of that sec
ton of the city, and put the police into
a state of activity.
The shot was fired at a time when
the second day relief was going off
duty, and in a few seconds a dozen
or more uniformed men were making
an investigation. There were four
young men in the immediate neighbor-
hood at the time Of the shooting, and
they were all taken in custody, tempo
rarily. They were not taken to the
station house, but We're searched on the
street. No weapon could be found and
they were released.
The superintendent heard the shot
fired and instructed the men to make
a search for the weapon. The pistol
was found by Patrolman Sandiford,
with the aid of pocket searchlight,
near where the four young men were
walking when placed under arrest.
Necessarily, one of the party fired the
shot, but inasmuCh as the quartette
had already been permitted to depart,
and no evidence could be adduced to
show just who fired the shot, no fur
Their action was taken by the police.
The pistol was of the bulldog Varie-
ty and showed that only one cartridge
had been exploded. The police chief.
was of the opinion that the shot had
been fired accidentally, and that, fear
ing arrest, the man who held the wea-
pom threw it away. The officers are
quite sure that one of the four men
who were temporarily arrested did the
shooting, but no arrests will be made.

$4,000 Per Bottle.

This seems a pretty big price to pay
for a single bottle of medicine, and vet
if you consider the matter rightly. il
is a very cheap price for a bottle OF
Johnson's Tonic.
Here is what fixes its value:
First. No man can die of fever who
uses it half way right.
Second. No other medicine can cure
a bad attack of grip.
500 is dirt cheap for this wonderful
medicine, and yet you can buy it for SO
cents a bottle.
Don't buy it from substitutors. Your
health and happiness is your business.
and making money out of you is their
business.
Buy the honest Johnson's Tonic. Take
no counterfeit or substitute. -ad.

TWO EXCITING RUNAWAYS
N. N, Nelson's Horses Damage West end
Elevator and Mr.. Nelson Escapes Mirac.
ulously- B. Collins Hair Is Made to
Stand on End.

n. Nj. Nelson's team became
frightened at the west end ele-
vator Friday afternoon at the
500 train and enjoyed a run for
two blocks. They were stopped
at Johnson's livery barn. The
wagon struck the corner OF the
elevator shed riddling it. MIR.
Nelson came near being caught
between the wagon and the shed
and his escape was miraculous.
The only damage done was a
broken line.
The same afternoon Scotield's
team ran away with D. B. Collins,
a cattleman, who had shipped in
two car loads of cattle from st.
Paul. Mr.. Collins escape was a
very narrow one. The ponies
being quite spirited began kick
ING shortly after leaving the barn
and the driver jumped from the
rig taking the lines with him.
The ponies continued kicking and
running and there was little for
Mr.. Collins to do but sit in the
buggy. chew great gobs of mud
and keep cool. Several tried to
stop the maddened steeds but all
efforts only seemed tomake them
90 faster. Near the 500 elevator,
the team ran up onto a bank and
Mr.. Collins jumped out unhurt,
but very muddy. The team ran
on down the road and were stpp-
ed. No damage was done.
