Inside Facts About ApolIinnris.

AS such an enormous quantity of
ApolIinaris water is consumed each
year, over SO,0OOOOO of bottles, so high
an authority on matters pertaining to
health as the London Lancet recently
sent one of it's special commissioners
to the spring, which is at Neuenahr,
Germany, in order to place before the
medical profession an authoritative
description of the bottling of this wa
ter.
The report of this commissioner,
published in a recent issue of the Lam
Get shows that he was given access to
every nook and corner of the vast es-
tabishment in which the spring is sit
1ated and that he saw from beginning
to end the process by which the water
is bottled there, ready for delivery to
all parts of the world. This report is
full of interesting scientific details de-
scribing the methods of bottling and
shows that the purity and healthful-
ness of the water as it comes from the
spring is preserved; it says that the
chemical analyses which he made are
in accord with those given at various
times by the late Prof. Virchow, Prof.
Liebreich, the late Sir Edward Frank
land and other authorities, and that
the water wherever it is bought is
identical with the water taken direct
from the spring, as Apollinaris is bot
tied only at the spring and only with
its own natural gas. The supply of
both water and gas from the spring
is considerably in excess of the present
enormous demands.

HOW TO GET RICH.
Lesson 4. Chapter 2.

There are wise men and men that
are. otherwise. There are lucky men
and those that are otherwise. But the
successful combination is a man both
wise and lucky. This is an individual
who keeps his eyes and ears open, and
when he sees or hears of what he
thinks is a good chance, he tries his
luck. Sometimes he misses the mark,
but nine times out of ten he hits the
bun's-eye. Some years ago, a man who
was the head boss of a corporation
thought it wise to buy piece of land
for the company. He thought it would
be a good investment, but after he
had negotiated for the property, the
other bosses thought he was too smart,
and told him that they didn't want
the land and he had better buy it
The price to be paid for the five acres
was $1,000. Some of his friends init
mated that he was crazy to pay such
a price! However, he paid $1,000 cash
and gave his notes for the balance.
(Of course he paid the notes in due
time) Some years after, so the story
goes, he sold off 5000 worth of lots.
1t is said that he has few lots left,
and that whenever he needs a little
pocket change" he sells a lot for
something over $1,000. That man has
the reputation of being smart and
lucky, but the truth is he is patriotic;
he believes that Savannah is in its
infancy, but that it is a growing city,
and like all growing cities, land in and
around it is steadily enhancing i'll
value.
There is another party who has made
a good sum in real estate. 1t is about
thirty years since he conceived the idea
that a place near town where he could
plant fruit trees and grape vines, and
raise his table truck would make him
happy. He invested $4,000 in his fad"
possibly the cash paid was small. He
didn't grow much on the land, but the
land grew in value. A land company
came along in the eos and bought
the less valuable portion of his farm
for $4,000 and then the nearer in town
part of the land became valuable as
city lots, and he sold them until he
had 100000 good interest-bearing in
vestments, and a sufficiency of his
original land left to provide an sle-
| CANT home. He still works little Just
! to keep himself healthy, and spends a
part of each year in Europe, or at
! Northern summer resorts.
| / don't know of any tracts OF land
| for sale just now like those mentioned
but Mere are lots and blocks to be had
! that Will realize proportionately just
| as much money. A few dollars invest
ed in lots or blocks on Thirty-ninth
| street, east, or elsewhere in equally
| eligible locations, will give big profit
TO those who can hold them for few

! anything. Do something Don't wait
until you are old, and then give your

SATAN INSTRUCTED
ABOUT POLICY PLAYS.
Husband Said Wife Received Wrong
Information from Devil.

Information from Devil.
Some rather unusual statements
were made yesterday before lunacy
jury in the Court of Ordinary, en-
paneled to try the case of Phela Vic
toria, colored, charged with lunacy.
The principal witness against the
woman was her husband. After hear
ing the evidence the jury held that
she was sane and ordered her re-
lease.
The husband stated that his wife
had been a policy fiend. That one
night his satanic majesty gave her
certain numbers TO play on the fol-
lowing day. Good spirits" then came
and advised her not to play them. She,
however, followed Satan's instruction
and-lost. Then she began pawning
everything she had in order to recover.
Later he claimed she went to root
doctor and for $3.50 secured certain
medicines. She rubbed the lotions all
over herself, and when he asked her
what she did it for, she stated IL was
because she wanted to make him come
to her on his knees and turn all his
money over to her. He said his wife
had been baptized in 1894, but, claim
ing that She had found new religion
she wanted the work done over again.
The woman then took the stand in
her own behalf She first denied hav-
ing paid the $3.50 for medicine, claim
ing she gave the root doctor so cents
for telling her fortune and 81 for the
medicine. The medicine. she claimed,
was to rub on her head to keep her
from going crazy.
In speaking of her religion, she
calmly informed the jury that some
times she had it and sometimes she
did not. When she had it, she said,
she could sing, and when she did not
have it, she could not. She can al
ways tell when she has it by her abil-
ity to sing. Her claim now is that
she has religion and since getting it
has never thought of policy.
In replying to a question regarding
instructions from Beelzebub. the wom-
an denied advancing the claim. She
said she had dreamed certain num-
bers, but having no faith in dreams,
had not played them. The money adj
vanced was lost. The woman stated
she had not played policy in four
weeks. Two of those four weeks she
has been in Jail.

ROBBED PHYSICIAN
OF HIS OVERC0AT.
City Doctor Had Two Reasons for
Calling on Police.

CuAAlhE ON FOAices
Even though Old Sol has begun feel
ing his oats it isn't very pleasant to
lose your overcoat-if it's a new one
and cost you something over $25 in
hard cash.
Then, too, it's all the more annoying
if you chance to be a NJ. d. and have
to call on patients during the early
morning hours when-no matter which
of the summer months it is-it is more
or less chilly. Really 1t will make you
feel like a depositor in Plants Macon
bank.
All of which explains why City Ply
Stefan Walter Norton didn't wear the
smile that won't come off when he
went to police headquarters yesterday
morning. He was there for something
other than looking after members of
the force who CHANGED to be sick. Dr.
Norton had been robbed and he was
telling his troubles to Desk Sergeant
Mock.
DIR. Norton's handsome overcoat mad
been stolen out of his private office
and he had had no intention of pack
ing it away in camphor He found use
for it frequently in making hurried
calls just before daylight and he want
ed it back. All of the plain clothes men
were called in and told to do their
best, and the men on duty were told
and the doctor himself told the officers
sick at home, all of which makes him
feel that he may recover his benjamin.

BOY IS HELD FOR
KILLING A MULE.
Cruelty to Animals Case Heard Be
fore Justice Bevans.

Cruelty to Animals Case Heard Be-
fore Justice Bevnns.
On charge of cruelty to animals,
Henry Williams, a negro boy, was ye'-
terday afternoon bound over to the
City Court by Justice Bevans, it being
alleged that the boy had severely beat
en- a mule, by name Bill Bailey and
that Bill had shortly thereafter died.
There was also a warrant for Edward
Green, a negro man, who had hired the
boy to drive the mule. but the case
against Green was dismissed, the evil
dence being insufficient.
w. W. Thomson. the owner of the
mule, was the prosecutor in the case.
1t appeared that the owner of the mule
had let Green take the animal and use
it for its feed. Green runs a wood
yard and the Williams boy drives fot
him. At no very remote date, the mule
fell down and a day or so afterwards
died.
One witness testified that the boy had
severely beaten the mule with a large
stick The defendants claimed when
the mule fell the load of wood fell on
TOP OF MIN. ana tnat tnlS was reSpon-
sible for the bruises. A number of
negro women appeared to testify as
to the appearance of the mule on the
day it fell. All of them said 1t looked
old and sick. The boy. according %
these witnesses. had drenched the an
iInal with soda, it being supposed that
it had the collie. 1t then appeared all
right.
When the evidence was all in the a.
torneys agreed to submit the case with
