ABANDONED CHILDREN
VIII BE Returned to Their Father
In Illinois.

VIII BE Returned to Their Father
In Illinois.
Brunswick, Ga. Sept, 1.-TWO bright
eyed little girls, ages 10 and II. who
have been abandoned by their mother,
will probably tomorrow be sent to
Illinois, where resides their divorced
father.
Several weeks ago n man and woman,
said to be man and wife. arrived in
Brunswick and engaged accommoda-
tions at Riley's restaurant. With them
were these two little girls. The couple
gave their names as Mr.. and Mrs. Gray.
They remained here for number of
days, and then departed for Valdosta,
leaving the children here to be sent for
later-the next day, they said.
A week passed and the proprietor
heard nothing. He waited another
week or two and then wrote to the
mother, but received no reply. After
sending several letters he finally sue
ceeded in getting the woman to write,
and she stated that she would send for
her two children the next day. This
is the last ever heard from the mother,
and for nearly six weeks the little ones
have been at the restaurant.
1t seems that the woman was di
vorced from her husband in Illinois
some months ago and was given the
custody of the children, and it is be-
lieved it is her purpose to now abandon
them. The restaurant proprietor sue
ceeded in finding the address of the
father in Illinois, and he was advised
of the fact. AS quick as train could
bring 1t, the father sent the money to
defray the expenses OF his children to
their home, and also inclosed enough to
pay the children's board a. the restau-
rant.
So tomorrow both the little girls will
be placed on the train and started on
their long journey. They are both I'M
usually bright, and smiled when in
formed that they were to be returned to
their father. whom they have not seen
for many months.
It's believed that the woman has left
Valdosta, but if she is still there it is
very likely that a warrant will be
sworn out for her, charging abandon
ment, and an officer will be sent from
here to place her under arrest.

CUMBERLAND LEAVES TO-DAY
Work at Fernandinn VIII Be Tenn
porary.


The big dredge Cumberland will
leave at o'clock this morning for
Fernandina, where she will work tenn
porarily on shoal which has been
forming in the harbor there. Capt.
Vaughan was busy yesterday complet-
ing arrangements for the trip and lay
ing in store of provisions. The dredge
will be absent a week or ten days and
will then renew her work on the Ty-
bee knoll. During her absence the three,
runners" the absence of which has
seriously handicapped her work here,
will be put in and she will be fully
equipped when she returns.
The story published in the Jackson
vile Times-Union to the effect that
the Cumberland had been returned to
Fernandina permanently "as soon as
she had completed some temporary
work at Tybee," is incorrect. Col Quinn
said yesterday. The dredge has been
assigned to this district and she will be
kept here with the exception of tenn
porary trips to Fernandina.
The shoal in the Fernandina harbor
collects more rapidly than the shoal at
Tybee. AS a result, the Cumberland
can make frequent trips to the former
harbor without her absence allowing
the formation of the shoal at Tybee to
overcome the work that had been &C
complished. The present plan is to
make the work at Tybee the regular
duty of the dredge, while occasional
trips will be made to Fernandina to
remove any shoals that form there. By
this plan both harbors can be kept in
good condition, while the expense of
operating the vessel will not fall en-
tirely on the appropriation allowed to
either district.
The cost of operating the dredge is
500 a day and this expense, together
with that of making any repairs neces-
STATED, is met from the appropriations
to the harbor in which the vessel is
working.

AFTER TAX DODGERS.
Coffee County Commissioners After
Unreturned Property.

Coffee County COMMISSIONER After
unreturned Property.
Douglas, Ga, Sept. 9.-The deficit of
$4,000 less tax valua ton for 1903 than
was shown for 1902 by the books of the
receiver of tax returns for Coffee coun-
ty is being rigidly overhauled by the
Board of County Commissioners. The
investigation already shows up TO this
date $145,0G0 Of unreturned property, an
increase over 1902 Of 100000 in valua-
ton. The commissioners confidently
expect to unearth at least 100000 more
unreturned by tax dodgers to the re-
ceivers of tax returns, which will show
a total increase for 1903 over 1902 Of
$230.000. 1t does appear to all fair-mind-
ed men that this wholesale tax lodging
not only defrauding the state and coun-
ty, but honest taxpayers as we'll by
throwing the burden OF taxation upon
them, should be met with criminal
prosecution, or, to say the least, II
shows the actual necessity of a board
OF conservative tax assessors for each
county.
