Col. Obear Will Inspect Four Com
panies of COIOred Battalion.
Col w. G. Obear. Inspector Ger
eral of Georgia State Troops, inspec-
ed the Georgia Artillery, colored last
night. The inspection was satisfac-
tory one, the command having out for
ty-eight out of fifty-two of it's enlisted
strength. While Col. Obear made no
comment it was evident that he was
pleased with the showing made by the
company.
The inspection was a thorough one,
the men going through the dismounted
drill and the drill with the cannon. 1t
was evident that the command is in
need of additional equipment.
The colOred battalion will be inspect
ed next week. Col. Obcar leaves this
morning for Tattnall county, where he
goes to inspect the Meldrim Iattnall
Guards. On Friday he inspects the
Columbus Rifles atrthat place. Return
ing to Savannah on Sunday. he will
spend the first four days of the week
inspecting the four companies of the
colored battalion. .rr
Col. Obear has made no other plans
for the future. He said last night that
he would move as the spirit moved
him. The commands have. however.
been notified to be in readiness at any
time for an inspection.

LEGAL OUTLETS IN
BRANCH BANKRUPTCY CASE.

bankrupt Firm Declares That 1t Has
Never Been Properly Served.
Alleging that the service on them was
irregularly made and that, as matter
of law and of fact, the proper parties
have never been served, the S. w.
Branch Co. filed a motion in the United
States Court yesterday, in which they
asked that the service of the petition
and summons be quashed and that the
cause be dismissed for lack of jurisdic-
tion of the court.
The motion was filed by G. T. and j.
F. Cam, attorneys for the S. w
Branch Company, who were placed in
involuntary bankruptcy a short time
ago on the petition of NJ. Ferst's Sons
& Co. and others.
Specifically alleging. the motion sets
forth that the petition and summons
were not served upon the proper par
ties, but, rather, upon James G. Nelson,
who was not an officer nor the manager
of the company as alleged in the return
of the officer.
The summoning officer declares that
Mr.. Nelson represented himself to be
the manager of the company and on
that representation the service was per-
fected on him.

COL. QUINN BACK
FROM INSPECTION TRIP.

Col. James B. Quinn returned yes
terday morning from an inspection trip
to Fernandina. The big dredge Cum
berland. which had been sent to the
Fernandina harbor to work on the
shoal which had formed in the har-
Dor there. has thus far been able to
do practically nothing. An attempt
was made to work her during Col.
Quinn's visit, but owing to heavy
wind which was blowing at the time
nothing could be accomplished The
dredge has also lost both the new
drags with which she was fitted out
at Newport News. The old ones We're
replaced, but the work done by them
is unsatisfactory and far below the
standard of what the boat Is capable.
The vessel will remain at Fernandina
until she is in good condition again
and then will be returned to her work
on Tybee knoll.

DIVORCE WIFE WANTS
HER CASE RE0PENED.

Says Her Husband Got Away from
Her without Providing for AIImOny.
Agnes Hanshaw, a divorced wife, who
failed to have permanent alimony
awarded her when the time was ripe,
and who, consequently. has not the
strings tied to her former husband,
which are by the law allowed, applied
to the Superior Court yesterday for
some relief from her predicament.
The unfortunate wife submits that
despite her response to her husbands
divorce suit, he was awarded a first
verdict of divorce. In her response
she asked that she be allowed perma-
nent alimony when the second verdict
was granted. Now she says that the
second verdict was taken without her
knowledge, and no provision for per-
manent alimony was made.
The petitioner does not want the
decree of divorce revoked. That part
of the proceeding is not distasteful to
her. She merely wants the case re-
opened in so far as it refers to the
question of aiimony. 1t is rather an
unusual status, and the outcome will,
doubtlessly, be attended by some in
terest.

CRAZY MAN TRIED TO
OPEN HIS ARTERIES.

Suffering from LOathsome Disease
He Attempted to End His Existence.
William Newton was declared insane
by commission from the Court of
Ordinary at the lunacy hearing at the
county jail yesterday. It took the jury
but a few seconds to make up their
minds, after hearing the evidence of
DIR. ]. G. Van Marter and DR.. Craig
Barrow.
Newton who was sent to the hospi-
tai short while ago, while suffering
from a venereal disease, had become
possessed of a suicidal mania This
fact developed shortly after his con-
finement. An investigation disclosed
that he had numerous scars on his
body which had been self-inficted.
These scars were shown to the Jury
There were also several fresh wounds
recently inflicted with a nail which the
patient had carefully concealed under
his tongue. The attacks had been made
in vulnerable portions of his body, some
of them indicating an attempt to open
an artery.

CAPT. DREYER'S MEN
COMPETE FOR PRIZES,
Annual Competition of Republican
Blues viii Be Held at AvOndaIe

Annual Competition of Republican
Blues viii Be Held at AvOndale
The annual rife shoot of the Repub-
lican Blues will be held on Avondale
Range this afternoon, beginning at 4
o'clock. Medals and prizes have been
offered in the various classes into
which the company will be divided for
the purposes of competition.
The classes differ somewhat from
those of the other companies, which
have held their annual shoots this sea-
son. To the officer or enlisted man
making the highest score at the ZOO
300 and 500 yard ranges the company
gold medal will be given, while another
gold medal will be given for the second
highest score. A prize of $3.50 in gold
is also offered for the highest score
made at the first three ranges by any
enlisted man. A like amount will be
given to the enlisted man who has
never qualified, making the highest
score at the first two ranges.
A special prize will be given to the
member of the honorary, veteran or
pay members class making the high
est score at 200 yards. 1t is almost
a foregone conclusion that Capt. ]. P.
and it has been humorously suggested
that the committee allow him to Sc
lect the prize to be offered. The com
pany has presented him with some
sort of prize year after year, until the
officers are at a loss to know what to
give him. He is we'll supplied with
medals, pins, cuff buttons, umbrellas,
guns, and other prizes.
When the question came up Fast year
a great deal of good humor was had
over the matter. One of the men
suggested that since the old blue fan
mel shirt which Capt Joe" has worn
has been the receptacle for so many
medals and pins and is thereby be-
coming well ventilated, it would be a
good idea to have a specially ordered
substantial shirt made for the purpose
and presented to him as a prize. Capt.
White enjoyed the joke as much as
any of the rest, but said that he was
unwilling to part with his old COM
panion in competition.
At the conclusion of the contest to-
day the company will return to the
armory, where refreshments will be
served and the prizes awarded.

Secretary Donlan of the Chamber
of Commerce yesterday received a let
ter from Maryland man stating that
he would arrive in Savannah on Nov.

lands in the surrounding country with
a view to locating permanently here.

tary Donlan will personally take them
over the available lands in the near
vicinity and will send introductions to
those having lands for sale at a greater
distance. If the rush proves too much
for one man to look after a commit
tee to assist the secretary will proba-
bly, be appointed from the Chamber
of Commerce.
Since the inauguration of the cam
paign Secretary Donlan has sent out
a large number of letters to persons
living in all sections of the state ask
ing them what lands, if any, they have
for sale and for any information that
they may have about surrounding
lands. Answers are beginning to come
in and more are expected daily. An
effort will be made to compile a COM
plete list of the available Georgia
lands in order that those intending to
locate here can readily see what lands
are at their disposal.
The railroads, who have Joined hear
tily in the movement for immigra-
ton to the Southeast, have begun
advertising throughout the North and
the Northwest. Different plans have
been devised for presenting the ad-
vantages of this section of the country.

before the people.
The special home seekers rates over
all the lines running into this terri
tory go into effect in the middle of
October. Special rates will be Of
fered to passengers who intend locat-
ing here and also a reduction will be
made in the freightage charges on
household goods Nothing will be left
undone to encourage parties to come
to the Southeast and permanently To-
