ANNUAL SETTLEMENT
What the School Tax and the Licenses
Amounted To.

The principal business OF the board
OF supervisors yesterday was the an
nual settlement with the county as
| SCISSOR and the sheriff The settlement
| with the assessor related to the school
tax, which used 20 be called the poll
| tax. There had been turned over to
the assessor 2200 receipts At $3.50 each.
OF these 351 were returned to the coun-
ty treasury. The collections amounted
| to $4,622.5O. From this was deducted
the commission of the assessor. five
per cent, S231.12. leaving for the school
fund $4,391.3S.
The books of the county showed that
at the beginning of the yea there had
been turned over by the treasury to the
sheriffs office license books amounting
to more than $4,000 The returns
showed that the total amount of the
licenses collected was $40 436, OF which
the commission of the sheriff was
S1020S0
These licenses were fer saloons,
gambling houses, pawnbrCkers, etc. In
addition there was the circus license
with which the sheriff had not been
charged by the county treasury. There
was collected from the Ringlings
$1S1.35. The sheriffs commission of
that was $9.O6.
considerable portion of the regular
license money came from the road
houses, which will contribute nothing
next year if the local option district
is sustained. Many Uf those who have
been conducting road houses are pre-
pairing to test the law. They have APP
Piled for licenses but they have been
denied so that the test will have to
come on writ OF mandamus to compel
the sheriff to issue the license. The

adjustment of them. but this time the

not vet been furnished.
Mayor Robertson said that he wanted
to take suitable action to rid the city
of those peddlers if possible, but he was
not clear as to either the legality or
praoticability of Mr.. Sheldon's plan.
! Alderman Hall wanted to know what
right the police have to interfere so
| long as those men keep the peace and
do not obstruct traffic.
Mr.. Sheldon said that as often as q

tell him to move on as been the prac-
! tice. but arrest him and under the city
| ordinance take him before Judge An

do his duty in the premises by filming

nances to which attention had been

Ward T.
Alderman Messer of Ward said that
the police are now attending to their
full duty i'll that respect, and he didn't
see why anybody should be arrested
for anything short of wilfuliy obstruct-
ing the streets.
Mr.. Sheldon thought that If regularly
fined at every possible opportunity they
would soon be glad to shake the dust
of Augusta off their feet for good.
Mayor Robertson wanted to know
what right the police would have to
discriminate against those foreigners in
favor of the farmers who peddle their
own produce.
Finally the order was given a pas
sage, and sent to the common council,
which non concurred. Then Alderman
Hall discovered that the matter of en-
forcing q city ordinance was one for
the board of aldermen and not for the
council and that the councils action
was illegal and void On motion of Mr..
Sheldon the city clerk was instructed
to enter upon the records that it was
submitted to the common council by
error.
designations were received of George
c. Sheldon, DR.. w. II. Harris and Jo-
scph Il. Young, the three members con-
shutting the Augusta Board of Health.
Mr.. Sheldon stated that he and DR.. Har-

calls upon their time for the duties of
the board had been so much that they
We're unable to attend to their regular
professions. Alderman Messer said
that he had talked with Mr.. Young dur

Mr.. Young would consent to stay upon
the board. The three designations were
accepted in a bunch. Mayor Robertson
nominated for a new board of health:
DIR. O. G. S. Davies, DR.. George Il.
Washburn and Joseph f. Young, and
the nominations were unanimously con-
firmed.

POWERFUL.
A Pure Food Drink Has Great Sustain
ing Power.

The sustaining power of Postum COT
fee when properly cooked is greater
than most people imagine and 1t is well
illustrated in the story told by young
Texas woman who says: Il almost lived
on Postum Cereal Coffee for over a
month and there was over a week l did
not eat anything at all but just drank
the food drink Postum and yet I grew
stronger and gained weight.
"Our family physician examined
Postum and decided to use it altogether
in place of coffee. We all think it has
no equal as a nourishment for the sick
for beside being pleasant to the taste
it is SO strengthening. My father and
mother have always been coffee drink
ers and suffered all kinds of troubl IS
from the coffee until about a year ago
a neighbor was praising Postum and
mother decided to try it.
"They improved at once and have
drank Postum ever since and mother,
who used to be bothered with nervous
ness and sleeplessness particularly, is
in splendid health now. She says the
change came entirely from drinking
Postum and leaving off coffee" Name

Leaves Geneva on His "Trium-

Will Reception Be7
His First Army Promotions Not Well
Received at Belgrade.

Geneva, June 22.-King Peter the
First of Servia, left Geneva on his way
to Belgrade at S.43 p. NJ, today.
The Geneva people made quite holt
day of the Kings departure. The King
dined with the members of his house,
hold before his departure. He drove to
the station accompanied by Gen. Popo-
vics, the head of the Servian military
deputation and followed in carriages
by the President of the Servian Senate
and the other members of parliament
airy delegation who were given great
ovations by the spectators. The sta
ton was strongly guarded by gen.
darmes and detectives in order to pre-
vent any untoward incident. On the
platform gathered a deputation of
Geneva ladies, who presented the King
with magnificent bouquets of flowers
and many other flowers were thrown in
the carriage.
The Russian consul was among the
last to shake the Kings hand as the
train pulled out of the station amid
loud cheering, in response to what King
Peter cried "Vive la Suisse"

UNPOPULAR PROMOTIONS.
King Peters First Acts Not Well Re-
ceived by Servian Army.

Belgrade, June 22.-King Peters promo
tions of officers of the Geneva military
delegation have given serious offence here
and it IS probable that they will be car
celled. 1t is semi-officially stated that
Col. Mischich who was gazetted. Sat
urday,, as commandant of the military
district of Belgrade, is not the chief con-
sprator, but the latter's brother.
While at Geneva, King Peter addressed
communications to the federal council
and the Geneva municipality thanking
residence. in Switzerland, The authcri-
ties replied by rendering their best
wishes for Peter of Servia."
The position of the ministry is bccom-
ing more uncnviable daily in consequence
Of the Russian and Austrian demands
for the punishment of the assassns os
King Alexander and Queen Draga. The
terms of the Russian note almost caused
a panic among the cabinet ministers,
who are anxiously awaiting the arrival
of King Peter to eXtricatc them from
the dilemma. The war minister is the
paramount power in the ministry, as he
is backed by the entire army, ana he
threatens severe resentment in the case
of any hint by a member of the cabinet
OF the punishment of the conSpiratcrs.
The promotions of officers sent from Ge
neVa are variously explained rs either in
tended as an open defiance, or as being
the result of alarm caused by the atti-
The foreign representatives who have
not been instructed are asking their re-
spective governments what attitude they
shall assume at the reception Of King
Peter. The Russian minister is in
quandary He had resumed relations with
the provisional government, when the
Car telcgraphed his recognition of King
Peter; but the minister takes the Subse-
quent publication of Russian demands
for the punishment as am indication that
Russia will possibly order the suspension
of relations with the government until
the murdererS are punished.
In the meanwhile the preparations for
the reception of King Peter continue. A
public holiday has been proclaimed, pro-
vincial Populations are coming to Bel
grade, free wine and beer are to be pro-.
vided by the government and the town is
to be given up to rejoicings.
