COMING TO SAVANNAH.

kilograms for Max Ihmsen Received
at the De Soto.
There will no DOUBT be a revival of
the Hearst presidential boom. in Sa-
vannah during the next few days.
Mr.. Max Ihmsen, secretary of the
National Association of Democratic
Clubs, and Mr.. Hearst's confidential
man and political manager, is sched-
uled to arrive in Savannah tomorrow
or Saturday. He is now in Palm
Beach and will have a conference with
Gov William S. Jennings of Florida
before he comes to Savannah.
Mr.. Ihmsen has been closely identl-
fled with Mr.. Hearst since he first
bought out the New York Journal in
1896. For several years Mr.. Ihmsen
was manager of the Journal, but dur
ing the last two or three years ne
has been acting as Mr.. Hearst's con-
fidential secretary. He managed Mr..
Hearst's campaign in his congressional
fight two years ago, and has done
much to promote the Hearst presl-
Dental boom.
1t is rumored in political circles that
Mr. Ihmsen is now making tour
of the South to determine just how
much support Mr.. Hearst may expect
from the Southern states in the DEM
ocratic National Convention which
meets in St. Louis in July. The fact
that he is to have a conference with
Gov. Jennings would indicate that the
New York congressman has some
hopes of receiving the support of the
Florida delegation to the national con-
vention.
Mr.. Ihmsen spent last Sunday in
Atlanta and held a long conference
with Hon. o. B. Stevens, Commission
err of Agriculture, and the recognized
leader of the Hearst boom in Georgia.
He spent several days in Jacksonville
this week and, 1t is reported, formal
ly launched the Hearst boom in Flor
ida.
Several kilograms were received for
Mr. Ihmsen at the De Soto yesterday.
1t is not know what the object of
his visit to Savannah is Unless he comes
here for the purpose of putting new
life into the Hearst Club which was
organized here sometime ago.

Broughton street, Miss NJ A. How
land, representing the Lorentz Medical
Company of New York city, will dis
tribute free sample bottles OF Toni
Ia, the new discovery for the speedy

The Lorentz Medical Company saws
that To-Ni-Ta Is a scientific combina-
ton OF the vital principles OF the most
powerful tonic and healing herbs

curing properties are largely due to

GUARDIANSHIP CASE
BEFORE THE ORDINARY.

Motion Made to Amend Former De-
ctsiOn of Judge McAlpin.
The case of ]. o. Small against ].
C.. Small came up in the Ordinary
Court yesterday. Some time ago the
former sued the latter for funds held
as guardian, and Judge McAlpin
awarded judgment against the defend
ant, and Isadore Collat, his bondsman,
in the sum of $125.
The case yesterday was a motion to
amend the judgment of the court so
as to strike the name of the bondsman,
on the grounds that the Court of Or
binary has no authority to enter judg-
ment against the bondsmen. Judge
McAlpin took the case under advise
ment. Mr. w. B. Stubbs represents
the guardian and bondsmen, and Mr..
E. S. Abrahams the ward.

UNSUCCESSFUL EFFORT
TO REINSTATE FLEMING.
Alderman oliver Wanted Lieutenant
Put Back on Duty.

An effort was made last night in
the caucus of City Council to reinstate
on the police force Lieut.. Walter H.
Fleming at the expiration of fifteen
days from the time he was suspended.
Lieut.. Fleming was suspended by
Council just two weeks ago last night
for a period of thirty days on the
charge of conduct unbecoming an Of
fcer. The effort to put him back on
the force now met with failure, the
resolution presented never even COM
ing to a vote. In the open session.
the matter was not referred to at
AL.
Alderman Oliver had drawn a resolu-
ton for reinstating the officer. He
led the fight for him and was warmly
seconded by Alderman Grayson, who
spoke in Lieut.. Fleming's behalf. One
other alderman is known to have fav-
ored reinstating Lieut.. Fleming, but
he took no part in the fight. The others
were so strongly opposed to any such
action that the matter was not press
ed.

MUCH WORK To DO
ON REGISTRATION
POLITICIANS GETTING ACTIVE.
BOOKS WILL CLOSE TWENTY DAYS
BEFORE THE PRIMARY.

bingham County VIII Furnish
Time-In Savannah John e. FOy
of Egypt Is Spoken Of-RepOrted
That Only One Member of Present
Legislature viii Be Returned-NO
Opposition Has Yet Developed to
County officers.
For the state and county primary,
which will be held on April 20, the
registration books will close on April
10, ten days being the time set by the
state rules that registration must
cease before the primary.
AS there is now left only a few days
more than a month before the books
close a big rush is expected from now
on. During the last twenty or thirty
days the registration Office will be kept
open from o'clock in the morning
and until A in the afternoon. The
books are now closed each day at 2
o'clock.
The County Executive Committee
will meet one day next week. The
same date will be adopted as has been
selected for the state primary and the
state rules governing the primary will
also be adopted. The chief interest in
the primary now centers in the regis
tration rush that the politicians are
bringing about. Every possible effort
is being made to get as many men as
possible registered at once. The poll
ticians realize now that the time is
very short, and they are working hard
in consequence.
No Opposition in Sight.
At the primary next month. state
house officials, a judge and a solicitor
and all county officers are to be select
ed. So far no opposition has an
nounced to any of the county officers,
although there has been considerable
talk of opposition to two of the pres
ent county officials.
Members of the Legislature are also
to be nominated at the primary. Only
one of the three present members
from this county will be returned to
the Legislature, it is rumored, though
no one has vet announced for the
Legislature. Indeed, there will prob
ably be no announcements until
caucus is held and full ticket ar
ranged In the race for associate JUS
tice of the Supreme Court it is said
Beverly D. Evans will beat Associate
Justice Fish in this county. Evans
advocates have been active here for
several months.
Politicians Are Active.
So far there is not much interest here
in the primary, except among the active
politicians. They are hard at work
getting their followers registered, and
framing up tickets, but with the gen
eral public little interest is felt, as it
is not thought there will be but very
little, if any, opposition, to the present
offlceholders.
A state senator will be chosen at the
primary, but he will come from Effing-
ham county. The rotation system is
still in vogue, and it will be Effingham's
turn to name the senator from the
First district. In Savannah it is be-
lieved that Mr.. John E. Foy will be
nominated. Mr.. Foy is a resident of
Egypt, and is we'll known in Savannah.
After Eff1ngham furnishes a senator it
will be Chatham's turn.
Registration Clerk Powers anticipates
a rush and is prepared. Yesterday 81
persons registered, making the total
registered 1924.

AGAIN AWARDED TRAINMENS'
UNIFORM CONTRACT

Messrs. B. H. Levy, Bro. & Co. have
again been awarded the contract for
uniforms for the Central of Georgia
Railway trainmen. After having had
the contract for a number of years
the company was so satisfied with
the uniforms that it was promptly re-
newed. This is a recognition of the
satisfactory manner in which the firm
has filled its previous contracts both
as to material, style of uniforms and
promptness in delivery.

Must Also Appear in superior Court
for Assault and Battery.
NJ. OMara was yesterday morning
fined $25 or thirty days, and turned
over to the Superior Court on the
charge of assault and battery, in the
case that had been docketed against
him as a result of an alteration with
Joe Singleton, a driver for Mr.. T. M.
Cunningham.
Mr.. O'Mara, angry because the car
riage got in his way, seized the whip
and attacked the driver. The young
lady who was just entering the car
riage, when the attack took place, was
the star witness in Police Court against
the defendant.
While the row was in progress, the
horses started to run away, and the
young lady had to catch them. She
was very much incensed at Mr..
O'Mara's attack on the driver, and
gave strong evidence against him.
There were others who thought the at
tack was warranted.
