element on Monk St.
Last Night
MRS. [. j. JOEL FRIGHTENED
Two Negroes Went to Her Room Door
and When Refused Entrance they
Attempted to Force Their
Way-Are Now in Jail.

erabieexcitement was created
last night about 10 o'clock on Monk

side.
At about the hour named above
screams were heard in the building
and George Lyons, who conducts a
fruit store in the building and others
quickly ran up the stairs and there
met two negroes coming down. The
negroes jumped over and knocked
down the men before they realized
what had caused the trouble.
Mrs l.. d. Joel. who did the scream
ing then related what had happened.
The two negroes, according to her
story, came to her room door and
knoehed aud when refused entrance
they attempted to knock the door
down. She ran into an adjoining
room and saw the two negroes trying
to enter the door She quickly gave
the alarm and the negroes We're
frightened away.
Evidently the negroes knew that
Mr. Joel was not in the room as he
had just closed his place OF business
on Bay street and left. coming past
his residence. 1t is believed that the
negroes watched Mr.. Joel until after
ne had passed his room
Several people saw the negroes run
ming and another negro succeeded in
getting good glimpse of both of
them ana when the officers were not
flied he told who they were.
Officer sam Coins Immediately
went TO work on the case and before

but the officers are sure they have
the right men, as Mrs, Joel and oth-
ers were able to identify them, Just
what the intent Of the ntruders was
is not known, but it is believed that
they entered the room for robbery.
Knowing Mr.. Joel conducted pawn
shop they sTmised that he kept val

that he was not present they thought
it would be good opportunity to

The officers did excellent work IN

time.

Not Probable Now That There will
be Any Advance in Meat.
Brunswick meat eaters seem to
have been fortunate during the great
strike in the western packing houses
as this city has never been effected
by the strike, only an increase being
made which was not notiseabIe.
Local butchers differ as to opinions
as to whether or not prices will yet
advance Some Of them contend that
it will take the packing houses weeks
to catch up and chat the supply for
the next few weeks will be short and
prices may be advanced, while others
are under the opinion that the pack
ing houses have kept pretty well up
with the demand during the strike and
that now an extra force will be work
ed to catch up with the demand, and
that therefore no advance in prices
will be made.

Among the many commendable
things noticeable in Brunswick is the
protection afforded to the weeds by
the city and its citizens. That weeds
are beautiful and that they enhance
the value of property and make a
city more desirable as a place of res.
idence, the whole world is agreed
Weeds are beneficial in that they
, harbor sand flies, mosquitoes and furn
ish hiding place for snakes. A
city whose streets, squares, PARKS and
lots are oyergrown with weeds is
enterprising and progressive. The
worlds greatest physicians are oppos-
Ell to the extirpation of weeds know
ing that when they die arld decay in

fostering the growth of weeds and not
one valid or valuable reason can be
adduced anent their destruction.
A prominent citizen of Brunswick
with whom Of late / have had the
pleasure of hobnobbling on st Simon

of weeds and the obvious encourage
ment given to their growth. l listen

after the volcanic violence of his in
yectiyes had dried up the fountain OF

be able to do it yet if the scheme
of Governor Terrell carries:
Governor Terrell will make every

sible to secure any further increase

department had consented TO take
care of an additional regiment of in

The object fo@ IN view is 10 ar,
range to get the additional $50 men
to Manassas and back. The military
fund is practically exhausted. and the
necessary money cannot come fromthis
source. The transportation rate al
lowed Georgia troops is | cent a mile
but at this rate it would cost more
than $1,000 to transport the additional
regiment to Manassas and home again
1t Is believed that a still lower
rate can be secured and negotiations
will be entered into with the railroads
with a view to securing the transpor
tation of these troops for lump sum
considerably below that cure. AS
soon as this is done, which will be
within the next day or two, If the ne
gotiations prove satisfactory, the legis-
lature will be asked to appropriate a
sufficient appropriation to pay the
expense. II is said that the legisla-

year, in which event it is thought
there should be no trouble in securing
the small appropriation necessary for

The Bill Has Been Set for Next Tues

The following story from the Allan

ty;
Unless there is a decided change
in sentiment of the members of the
senate it is very probable that the
Australian ballot bill will be killed.
1t is possible that compromise may
be reached by which the senate will
pass the bill provided it applies only
to primary elections.
Considerable opposition has deyel.
oped to the measure on the ground
that in many counties in Georgia
the Australian ballot would give the
republicans and the negro voters con
troll of the coanty, whereas at present
the democrats will always remain in
power.
The measure has been made the

ARE working equallytas streruously.
Some Of the members in the senate
are opposed 10 th9 measure if it ap-
plies to ali elections. They claim if
Fit will apply only to whitaeprimaries
they are perfectly willing for the
measure to become a law.
It Is contended by others that such
q paw would be Unconstitutional, on
the ground that to draw distinction
between the elections world be class
Legislation.
Other members of the senate are
urging that the democrats owe it to
the people Of the state to pass the bill
as the state democratic convention de-
clared in favor of it by incorporating
ballot reform in the state platform.
There will no doubt be large
