CURES CATARRH.
Tor Catarrh Ever Discovered, )"
Says Mayor Yard.

Do not try to cure catarrh by TAX
ing drugs into the stomach; it cannot
be cured in that manner. The only
way in which this too common disease
can be cured is through direct appIi-
cation that will kill the bacilli of ca
tarrh and prevent their growth.
Hyonei is the only known method
of treatment that accomplishes this.
1t is the simplest, most pleasant and
the only absolute cure for catarrh
that has ever been discovered.
Thousands of unsolicited testimo-
malls have been received from the most
prominent men and women in the
country who have been cured by this
remarkable remedy. Ministers, bank
ers, lawyers, even eminent physicians
have sent strong testimonials as to the
remarkable powers of Hycmei to cure
catarrh.
Former Mayor Emory NJ. Yard
of Trenton, N. j., writes: You have

81 AM AFRAID OF THAT MAN"
Said NJ. Marcus in His Testimony
Against ID. M. Rubin.

II am afraid of that man. He is
a bad man and 1 know he intends to
harm some member of my fam
ily," said NJ. Marcus yesterday after
noon in his testimony before Justice
Bevans against Max Rubin, whom he
had arrested on peace proceedings.
Rubin, it will be remembered, was
arrested Friday, upon complaint of
M. Marcus, and not D. M. March,, as
previously stated, for threatening to
kill some member of Marcus family
and then kill himself, the case growing
out of a breach of promise and gar
nishment suits previously instituted
against Rubin by a member of the
Marcus family.
In his testimony Marcus swore that
Rubin had threatened to kill some one
of his family and then kill himself
He further stated that Rubin said he
had no family, or relatives here and
did not care to live. To a question by
the court Marcus admitted that he is
afraid of Rubin and said that he had
not been alone all day for fear of him,
but had kept some male person with
him all the time. He was positive
that Rubin meant to carry out his
threat of taking life.
Mr.. Castle testified to hearing Rubin
make the threat. but did not think he
meant to put it in execution. He said
Rubin was excited at the time and
hardly knew what he was doing. He
had no weapon. Other witnesses were
called for the prosecution, but they
could not testify to what occurred as
the talk between Rubin and Marcus
was carried on in a language which
they did not understand. They admit
ted, however, they saw Rubin tap his
breast and flourish his hands with ges-
lures.
Rubin in his own defense denied that
he had made the threats. What he
did say was to the effect that they
We're trying to rob him of his money
and were not treating him right He
asserted that he had no weapon and
never carried one. He was positive he
made no threat against the Marcus
family and had no intention of Offering
them bodily harm.
Justice Bevans thought that Rubin
was not half as bad as pictured by
Marcus, and discharged him, with the
advice to keep away from the Marcuses
and be careful of his conduct.

SAVANNAH'S NEW CITY HALL.
A Suggestion That 1t BE Built Farther Back From
the Street
THOS. H. GIGNILLIAT.

One of the most popular movements
recently inaugurated in connection
with Greater Savannah" is that for
a new city hail. Concensus of opinion
also is that the building should be
put on the site of the present building
and all the money spent for a struc-
ture worthy of Savannah, rather than
cut $4,000 or 100000 off of the amount
to be spent on the building and throw
that amount away on new site.
In this connection, however, there
is one little change that could be made
which would double the benefit of the
whole movement, both to the city at
large and to the surrounding property.
That is to move the building back
nearly on a line with the building line
on the river side of Bay street. In
its present site the building kills Bay
street, and is itself killed by it's close
proximity to the Custom House and
the Sorrel Building.
A jewel is pretty thing, but if it
is held jamb up in front of the eyes
it becomes a nuisance. Not only
would one rather have the light and
air but the beauty of the jewel is not
perceived because it is too close, The
endon view and the full front view of
buildings are never the prettiest. The
prettiest views are the corner views.
We will be able to see our new
building square in front, and square on
each end, but if it is not moved back
the prettieSt view will be lost because
1t will be too close to the observer.
Further than this the present Ex-
change obstructs the view of Bay
street from either end and makes the
whole street look only half as impress
SlVe as 1t otherwise would look
Bay street is one of the great fea-
| lures of Savannah, and it will always
remain cut in two, if the new building
is put on the exact site of the old one
Think of the storm of protest that
would be raised if some building like
the new Germania Bank or the CITY
| postotf1ce or the De Soto Hotel We're
| pumped down in the middle of Bull
street. Then. since the city belongs to
us Savannahians, why not use this
same sentiment to take this opportun-
ity to get building out of the middle
| OF another great street of the city.
Think of New York with the city
hall in the middle of Broadway, or Of
Chicago with the Midway Plaisance
cut in two by the Liberal Arts build
| ing, or of Pennsylvania avenue, Wash
ington. d. c., with the new city post
office in the middle of that street. How
those great views would be killed.
The principle is just as bad here in
Savannah as it is in New York or in
Washington or in Chicago. 1t may be
alright for country villages to violate
these principles. but it does not do for
city to violate them, when it is look
ing forward to 100000 inhabitants in
the near future, and to a still greater
population as time progresses. More
over, none of the big cities of the
world to-day do violate these princf-
pies in their new work.

tunity makes the man." 1t is equally

tects that the opportunity of location
