WERE IN A TRANCE.

Unable to say how, where or why,
two rather blear-eyed individuals pre-
scented themselves at police headquar-
tiers yesterday and to the desk SER
geant on duty unfolded their little tales
of woes.
They had fallen into the hands of
some persons out for the coin. Not only
were these folks looking for the dust,
but they got it when they ran afoul
the pair from over the river. Just
how the trick was worked the strang-
ers could not tell.
They were certain that it happened
Wednesday, however. But this certain
ty seemed to be based on the simple
fact that they remembered having had
the currency at that time When they
remembered again they were without 1t.
The unfortunates were also sure that
they could not be mistaken about the
amounts. one recalled $20.27 and the
other knew his pile was somewhere be-
tween SO and $40. Their dreams had
been costly. but the police could offer
them no assistance, and the simple fact
that they were touched goes on the
record.

CAME TO BE A BRIDE;
FOUND HERSELF A KAGRANT
Unusual Situation Disclosed at Criminal Session
of City Court Yesterday.

There were four acquittals. Dan j..
Charlton, Esq, prosecuted for the
state.
There were among the accused two
Migrants. One of these, Annie Lee
was shown TO be an immoral and
prohigate individual, who, though
white. did not confine herself to the
society of her own race. The court
gave her the limit of the law-twelve
moons in the tolls. The other, a mu-
latto girl named Lottie DeLacey,
pleaded guiltH and was given nine
months sentence.
Dennie Robinson, a foxy looking in
dividual of cafe au lait complexion,
who made an unsuccessful attempt to
beat the Smith e. Kelly Company out
of small sum of the great where
with, leaned forward very anxiously
only to hear the direful imposition OF
a sentence of twelve lunas in the
county bitches. Robinson represented
himself to be another, and received
the hard earned contents of another's
envelope.
Eddie Pavne stoutlv denied that he
had stolen six pair Of socks, as alleged
in the warrant under which he was ar
raigned, but his denial did not make
an impression on the presiding judge
in the face of the testimony of one
Mehanna Yunas. which was most d.
rect. and literally carried conviction
with II.
There were others arraigned for al
most every form Of misdemeanor in
the gamut OF lhat particular grade Of
crime, and in almost every instance
the customary judicial pap. "25 or r."
was administered. IL was a case Of
Hobson's choice. and as none OF the
accused were IN a position 10 take the
rs end OF the proposition. the county
Golfers were not appreclably swelled
as result Of the lengthy session.

especially fitted to portray the eccen-
tricities of the two funny Germans,
Rudolph, the horse doctor, and Adolpn,

prima donna; Bessie Phillips, the mag

An unusual incident occurred in the

son. who was the first person to be
convicted under the operation of the

from custody on the county farm, be-
cause of newly discovered evidence. A
gentleman from Augusta called upon
Judge Norwood and explained to him
the uecuhar circumstances of the
case, and upon the showing made the
woman was given her release.
The women found her way to the
tolls through the treachery of her
sweetheart. This fact was not divulged
to Judge Norwood, but it was shown
to his satisfaction that the culprit
had been in the steady employment
Of a reputable family in Augusta, and
had only been in Savannah few days
when she was taken in charge by the
authorities because she had no visible
means of support. The gentleman from
Augusta explained that he would take
the woman back to Augusta with him,
and would promise that her old posi-
ton would be restored TO her.
The true inwardness of the situation
was that the woman was lured to
Savannah by the promises Of marriage
from her fancee. She came on an ex-
cursion and met her intended But
he did not marry her lie insisted on
waiting a while. At the end Of a week
