NEGRO STOLE HOGS.
Had Them Covered in Wagon When
Nabbed By Police.

Had Them Covered in Wagon when
Nnbbed By Police.
For shooting and carrying from Elba
Island two hogs belonging to j. B. Will
son, Isaac Brown, George Scott and
Israel Quarterman, negroes, are held
prisoners at the police station house.
They have confessed their guilt and
will be arraigned in Police Court this
morning.
The men were arrested on suspicion
yesterday morning by Mounted Sergt.
T. C. Murphy, and it afterwards
developed that the hogs belonged to
Mr.. Wilson, and had been killed on his
place. The negroes had the porkers
covered over in a wagon when the sus
picions of the police sergeant were
aroused, and he determined to make an
investigation. He was not satisfied
with the stories told by the suspects,
and sent them to the station house
with the hogs.
Later the officer visited several per-
sons known to have hogs on islands
adjacent to the city and in this way
discovered that Mr.. Wilson was the
loser. The hogs were identified as his
property and the prisoners were identi-
fed as three men who were employed
by him. Mr.. Wilson reported to the
police that he has lost a large number
of hogs, but that he had never sus-
pected the men arrested by Sergt. Muir
ply. The prisoners claim that there
are others implicated, and it is possible
that more arrests will be made.

CITY BREVITIES.

Mr.. w. NJ. Davidson is about to be-
gin the erection of handsome resi-
dence at the corner of Drayton and
Thirty-fo fourth streets.
The annual meeting of the Hebrew
Benevolent Society, which was to have
been held last night, was postponed be-
cause of the illness of one of the Off
GERS and probably will not be held be-
fore Sunday.
Principal Ormond B. Strong will give
a Shakespearean reading at the Boys
Preparatory School at noon to-day. He
will give the entire play, THE Mer
chant of Venice" without reference to
manuscript or book.
The Pulaski was filled up last night,
not a spare room being to be had in
the hotel, and in several instances two
or more parties desiring accommoda-
ton had to double up in one room. This
was occasioned by the members of the
Bostonians company, over forty strong,
registering there and requiring sepa-
rate rooms.

COAL CHUTE MUST GO.
It's Removal VIII Mean Opening of
WaIdburg street, East.

It's Removal VIII Mean Opening of
WaIdburg street, East.
Another agitation has been begun for
the removal of the Atlantic Coast Line
Company's coal chute, the presence of
which makes the opening of Waldburg
street into CoIlinsville an impossibility.
The matter has been turned over to
the city attorney, and it is probable
that the obstruction will be removed in
the near future.
The Improvement Committee of the
South Side Administration Club, and
property owners in Collinsville, are
urging that the chute be taken down
by the railroad company so that the
street can be opened. Council favors
having the chute moved at once, and
the city attorney has been requested to
give the matter his immediate atten-
ton. The railroad company will be no.
tihed at once of the feeling of Council,
and property owners on the subject,
and the coal chute that now extends
from Bolton street south, past Wald-
burg street. on the Atlantic Coast
Lines right-of-way, is doomed. The
improvement is one that the residents
of the southeastern section of the city
have been working for for quite awhile.

CAPT. SPENCE FAVOR
ABLY KNOWN HERE.
Military Men Regard His Appoint
ment an Acceptable One.

The announcement in the Morning
News that it had been practically set
tied that Capt. r. f. L. Spence of the
Thirtieth United States Infantry, a
well-known Georgian and a graduate of
West Point, would be designated by
Gov. Terrell, as the officer to be assign
ed to Georgia by the War Depa rtment
at Washington, under the provision of
the Dick bill, to assist the adjutant
general and to aid in the instruction of
the state troops, caused considerable
comment among military men yester-
day
Capt. Spence is not widely known
here, though 1t is the impression
among those officers who have met him
that he would make in every way
most acceptable nominee. He was sta
toned in Savannah for about three
months during the Spanish American
War, as first lieutenant of the Six
teenth Infantry, and during that time
was known as one of the most popu-
lar officers in his regiment. He was
afterwards wounded at San Juan. Be-
fore the close of the war he was made
major of the Third Georgia, and later
succeeded to the lieutenant colonelcy.
Among his friends here he is known
as a splendid officer and a fine fell
low He is an alumnus of the Univer-
sity of Georgia, having been a member
of the class of SO. He left the univer-
sity at the completion of his junior
year to accept an appointment to West
Point. Capt Spence is a COMPARE
lively young man, being about IS. years
of age. He is a nephew of Judge W.
n. Spence of Camilla, which place is
his birthplace.

been so popular as a place to hold
meetings, conventions, etc, as it is

vention, to be held in June; and the
Wesley Bi-Centennial Celebration, in
June, it is now planned to have the

will attend the convention, but says
that the meeting will be a most repre-
sentative one.

AN ABSOLUTENECESSITY
So Thinks Mt Least One Travelling
Man.

l would as soon think of starting out
without my mileage books and grip as
10 start out on a trip without box
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in my
valise, said a travelling man who rep
resents st. Louis hardware house.
Why? Because l have to put up at all
kinds of hotels and boarding houses.
l have to eat good. bad and Indifferent
food at all hours of the day and night
and 1 don't believe any mans stomach
Will stand that sort of thing without
protest. anyway. I know mine won't.
1t has to have something to break the
fall, and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
is the crutch I fall back on.
My friends often Josh" me about it,
tell me I'm an easy mark for patent
medicine fakirs. that advertised medi-
icines are humbugs, etc, but l notice
that they are nearly always complain
ing of their aches and pains and poor
digestion, while 1 can stand most any
old kind of fare and feel good and
ready for my work when 1t needs me,
and | believe l owe my good digestion
and sound health to the daily, regu-
lar use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
year in and year out, and all the
''joshing" in the world will never con-
vince me to the contrary.
/ used to have heartburn about
three times day and headache about
three or four times a week, and after
standing for this for four or five years
1 began 10 look around for crutch
and found II when my doctor told me
the best Investment l could make
would be. a ffty-cent box of Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets. and have in
vested about fifty cents a month for
them ever since. and when / stop 10
think that that is what / spend every
day for cigars feel like shaking
hands with myself for ! can keep my
stomach and digestion In first class
order for fifty cents a month / don't
care for any better life insurance
My druggist tells me they are the
most popular of all stomach medicines
and that they have maintained their
popularity and success because they
do as advertised. They bring results.
and results are what count IN a patent
medicine as much as IN selling barb
wire.

An Absolute Necessity
in Many Cases.
A DECREASE IN WEIGHT
FREQUENTLY INDICATES
A DECLINE.
Our Modern Rebuilder, VinOl,
: Will Help You Do 1t.
THE WAY 1T ACTS ON A DE-
PLETED CONSTITUTION Is
SIMPLY MARVELLOUS.

Are you getting thin2 If you are
you had better watch yourself. Take
Vinol. 1t will build you up quickly
and surely.
A healthy man does not vary much
from year to year in his weight.
This is as it should be. Vinol enables
the organs of the body to renew flesh,
muscle tissue, bone structure, and at
tends to purifying the great vital cur
rent of the human system, the blood
Vinol contains the active curative
properties of Cod-Liver Oil in highly
concentrated state, and is the most
wonderful tonic that we have ever had
anything to do with.
Vinol acts upon the stomach in a
beneficial way, enabling it to obtain
for itself the necessary ingredients
from the food that is taken into it to
build up the pure healthy body and in
crease the weight.
Mr.. H. M. Stufell, who is a we'll
known passenger trainman on the
Boston and Maine Railroad suffered
as many railroad men do, with kidney
and other troubles. He writes as fol-
lows:
my kidneys troubled me a great
AC&ts AhJ DO"CAc WCAC Wei Il
had great distress in my stomach, suf-
fered with bilious headaches, had no
appetite, could not sleep nights, and
was losing flesh rapidly. l began to
take Vinol, am now on my third bot
tie, and it is doing wonders for me.
My kidneys are better, my bowels are
again regular, my stomach no longer
troubles me, and no more headaches,
and as for appetite, don't speak of it /;
sleep like a top and have gained
thirteen pounds. You can count on
me always to recommend Vinol as the
king of medicines"
With many such testimonials as
the above coming before us, it is not
strange that we endorse VinOl as
strongly as we do. We unheSitat-
ingly agree to return to any one
who has taken VinOl and is not
satisfied that 1t has accomplished all
that we claim for it every cent that
hey have paid us for this remedy.

BAKERS ARE STILL AT OUTS.
No Arbitration Yet Though
Letters Have Passed.

No Arbitration as Yet Though
Letters Have Passed.
The boss bakers and the journeymen
bakers have not yet settled their diff
ferences. The committees from the as
ISOLATION of the bosses and the union
of the journeymen have not as yet got
together. The bosses say the reason
is that the journeymen do not want
to recognize or negotiate with the as
ISOLATION of the bosses, but want to
deal with them individually. The bosses
say their association is an incorporate
one. and responsible, and they prefer
to act in unity as the journeymen are
doing.
Members of the Arbitration Commit
tee of the Boss Bakers Association,
appointed a few days ago to negotiate
with a similar committee of the Jour-
neymen's Union, say that they are per-
fectly willing to meet any reasonable
demands. but some of the demands sub
mitted by the journeymen are unrea-
sonable. Some written communication
has passed between the two commit
tees, but it is not known just now
whether they will meet II at all.

SLIPPED UP TO THE GATE.
How the wOhld-Be Assassin Made
His Preparations.

Barlow, Fla, March 19.-Later de-
velopments in the attempted assassi-
nation of Rufus Jordan last night in
dictate that the party who did the shoot
ing followed the old man and his son
out to the home of the latter, as the
horse tracks in the road plainly showed.
The would-be murderer rode up to
within about 300 yards of the Jordan
residence, dismounted, hitched his
horse and walked up to the house. Aft
err the shooting he took to his heels,
and remounting his horse, rode hasti-
ly back to town, or at least in this
direction.
Deputy Sheriff Childs and others in
vestigated the tracks very carefully,
and as rain had fallen just before the
party went out, it was very easy mat
ter to follow his tracks. The horse
was unshod, and the mans track indi-
Gated that he wore about a No. or
shoe.

NEARLY READY FOR
STEEL FRAME.
New Bank VIII Go Up Quickly
When Foundation Is Completed.

New Bank Will Go Up Quickly
When Foundation Is Completed.
More steel grillage and the pier caps
for the foundation piers of the Germa-
MIA Bank building have been received,
and are being hauled to the building
site. The concrete and grillage foun-
dations for the columns are being rap
idly laid and preparations are being
made for the steel frame of the super
structure. When the erection of the
columns and frame work begins the
work will be carried along quickly, and
in short time a general idea of the
outlines of the building may be had.
The means which win be used to
make the building fire proof and the
method of appliance, and of rendering
the steel work proof against damage
from heat, will be very interesting, as
well as novel to most people in Savan-
nah. The most trying part of the cree
ton of the structure, the putting in of
the foundation line piers in conformity
with the building lines, has been COM
pleted.
