THE statement Of Mr.. Guy A.

bridge from South Main Street to that

Wagner says over his own signature

completed The work of putting it
up will begin as soon as the material
is received. The completion of the

Bread Facts


Like other facts are not always
indisputable. We certainly would
like to dispute numerous so-called
''facts" made by bakers of cheap
bread who claim that a cheap
bread is just as good as the stand
ard kinds that cost a little more.
We've tried selling both and found
that it didn't pay to sell the shod-
dy article always necessary for a
cheap price, So we sell only the
standard kind. Its name is
"PURE MALT BREAD" and ev-
cry loaf is backed with our guar
antee. Just try loaf and ifyou
don't like it we cheerfully refund
the purchase price.

"A CORNER IN ANCESTORS"

AS the Oldest male descendant living
of Maj. John Jones of Sunbury, Lib
erty county. Georgia, father of Capt.
Joseph Jones, grandfather of Rev. John
Jones, D. D.. and great-grandfather Of
Dunwoody Jones and in behalf of the
other members of the family, extend
thanks to Maj Sidney Herbert for his
able article in reply to "A Corner in
Ancestors"
The intellectual, moral and fighting
qualities of Maj. John Jones stock are
we'll established. He surrendered his
life and large portion of his fortune
to the service Of his country, falling
in battle at Savannah, Ga, Oct. 9, 1873.
His two sons were both captains in
the war of 1S12-15 His grandson and
great-grandsons, numbering eight, ca
pable of service, served as officers in
the Confederacy, and these gentlemen
were taken from the arena of law,
medicine, pulpit, authorship and baro-
NAL plantation. Whoever makes the
assertion that the Jones shirk war GER
tainly are not familiar with the records
of the past.
Old Dembo (ante- bellum), when ask
ed by some gentleman who was the
best man around Dorchester, Liberty
county, replied: "Massa, | vent les
know wa yo mean by de bes man; but
eff 20 mean 70 good, Ell; da Mas John
Mallard, but eff 20 mean 70 talk, eh,
da wa Mas Tom Flemin; buh eff 20
mean for fte. ha. buck! him da Mas
Henry Jones'" Here was an humble
recognition of the fighting blood of the
Joneses.
Miss Livingston must have known
little, or, rather, nothing, of the Jones'
ancestry. There were many in each
profession. Among some: DR.. c. c.
Jones, a minister of the Gospel; his
son, Colcock Jones, lawyer and
writer, and another son, DIR. Joseph
Jones, prominent physician. of New
Orleans: Rev. DR.. John Jones Of Lib
erty county, who had three sons, two
Of whom are lawyers and another held
commission as major in the Confed-
crate army.
We again thank Maj. Herbert for
his able criticism and defense OF the
name. Dunwoody Jones.

CUSTODY OF CHILD FOUGHT
FOR IN TWO COURTS.
Clash of Judicial Authority Avoided
by Judge Barrow in Noonan Case.

The long pending and stubbornly
fought litigation between Mrs. Effie
P. Noonan and her husband, Minor b.
Noonan, for the possession of their
minor child was concluded yesterday,
at least so far as the jurisdiction of
the Eastern Judicial Circuit is con-
cerned. Affidavits and counter affidaV-
its as to the immortality of the par
ties litigants were introduced, making
the case one of a most sensational ha-
beas corpus proceedings heard in the
courts for some time.
The question raised by the proceed
ings was one in which there was a
seeming conflict in jurisdiction as be-
tween the judges of the Eastern Ju-
dicial circuit and the Atlantic circuit
In determining the case, Judge Bar
row avoided a clash in authority by
issuing a decree, subject to any further
decree issued by Judge Seabrook,
which,, in the absence of any order
from the latter will become final judg-
ment in the case.
Judge Barrow decided that as the
husband is a citizen and resident of
Effingham county, in the Superior
Court of which an application for ALI
mony is pending, in which the judg-
ment of the court upon the question
of the custody of the child is being
invoked, that the judge of the Allan
tic circuit is rightly the proper tribunal
to adjudicate the question.
1T was never contemplated by the
trainers of the constitutions and laws
which deal with habeas corpus cases,
that the proceeding could be used for
the purpose of settling the respective
rights of husband and wife when liv-
ing separate and apart, either as to the
custody of children or property or the
payment of alimony. The question of
the custody of the child is the prime
object of the suit
I'm this case there is nothing but the
question of whether a certain person,
who happens to be an infant, is lille
gally restrained of his liberty. 1t seems
to me, therefore, that whatever judg-
ment might be rendered in the habeas
corpus case could properly be review
ed, reversed or modified by the judge
who has charge of the alimony pro-
ceedings.
1T is, therefore, considered that the
sheriff, John Schwarz, who is now in
charge of the child, remain in charge
of him until Saturday, April 4, and if
the judge of the Atlantic circuit shall
not before that day award the custody
to some other person, then the sheriff
shall deliver the possession of the child
to the father, subject to any further
judgment which might be made by the
Judge of the Atlantic circuit in the ALI
mony proceedings"

PAINT, VARNISH
AND OIL FACTORY.
Now Being Erected in savannah, to
Begin Operations in a short Time.

Now Being Erected in savannah, to
Begin Operations in a short Time.
Mr.. William Taylor. who left several
days ago to attend the National Con-
vention of the Master Painters and
Manufacturers of the United States at
Richmond, and afterwards to visit the
modern paint factories and factories of
paint-making machines in the East, has
returned. His visit, as was stated in
the Morning News some time ago, was
for the purpose of familiarizing him
self with the most modern machinery,
methods and markets of the country
with view to establishing a modern
paint factory in Savannah. He reports
that his visit was a very satisfactory
one, and much valuable information
was secured. While at the Richmond
convention he met the most prominent
paint manufacturers of the country, as
well as manufacturers of paint-making
machines and received from them much
valuable assistance. Through intro
auctions from them, he visited all of
the best factories of the East under
the most favorable conditions.
So great was the variety of ma
chimes he saw however, that he did not
attempt to make any purchases at the
time but waited until he could return
home and give the matter sufficient
consideration. This he has done and
the machinery has been ordered In
the course of sixty days 1t will be in
the city. In the mean time the erec-
ton of factory building, 100 by so
feet, has been begun, that it may be
ready for the installation of the ma
chinery as soon as it arrives. The
building is being erected on a six acre
sste, which was purchased for the
purpose, on - the Louisville road two
miles from the city, it being part
of the Norton tract. AS soon as the
first building. which is of wood, is
finished brick structure will be put
up for the manufacture of varnishes
The location of the site is convenient
to the railroads and has other ad-
Vantages.
1t is Mr.. Taylors intention to manu-
facture only the best grades of paints.
Varnishes and rosin oils. He thinks
there is ample market here for the full
production of his factory if he is
given a fair amount of patronage, and
that he will cater to with conserVa-
tive prices. The outlay for the es-
Establishment and putting in operation
such a factory is large, and as he is
alone in the enterprise and has all his
available capital invested in it he will
apply for assistance to the Chamber
of Commerce on the ground that the
local enterprise will be of great bene-
fit to the city and it ought to receive
the help of that local commercial
body. Mr. Taylor asserts that the pro-
ject is no experiment as he is famil-
lar with the manufacture of paints,
learned the business, and worked at
it for years in England and Ireland
and has manufactured it on a small
scale with success for years in con-
nection with his business in Savan-
nah. He has engaged the services of
two expert operators who will be
brought to the city as soon as the fac
tory lie ready for Them The rest of
the labor will be secured here.
