MORE TRAINS
TO TYBEE ISLAND
TO BE RUN THIS SEASON.
FULL SUMMER SCHEDULE WILL
BECOME EFFECTIVE JUNE 3.

Central of Georgia Will Inaugurnte
Its sunday SenshOre Specials on
the Same Date-These Will Be
Operated to Connect With the
Trains to Tybee-They viii BE
Run Between Augusta, Macon and
Dublin and savannah.
The Central of Georgia announces
that the regular summer schedule of
trains between Savannah and Tybee
will be put on June 5, and that it will
be practically the same as that of last
season, except that an additional
round trip to and from the island will
be operated on week days so that per-
sons going to the island in the after
moons may return to Savannah on any
of three trains, instead of either of
two, as has heretofore been the case.
This schedule will enable people of
Macon, Augusta and Atlanta who visit
the island to take supper there and
still return to Savannah in time to take
the Centrars evening trains to those
cities. On Sundays there will be two
additional round trips more than were
operated last season.
Sunday Seashore Specials.
On the same date that this schedule
goes into effect the Central will in
augurate it's Sunday Seashore Specials.
OF these specials one will leave Au-
gusta at 12:45 o'clock a. m. and reach
Savannah at Sis a. m. Passengers on
this train will have close connection
with the train for Tybee, which will
leave Savannah at 5:45 o'clock, and
arrive at Tybee in ample time for the
visitors to secure their breakfast there.
Returning these passengers will be
able to remain to supper at Tybee, and
still return TO Savannah in time to
catch the returning Seashore Special
which will leave at o'clock and reach
Augusta at 1880 a. m.
In addition to this train, there will be
the usual Sunday morning train from
Augusta, connecting at Millen with the
Sunday Seashore Special from Macon,
which will leave Macon at 4:40 o'clock
a. m, and arrive at Savannah at 1925
o'clock a. m. Another special, or a sort
of second section to the Macon special,
will be that from Dublin via Dover,
which will reach Savannah also at
1925 o'clock a. m. Returning, the
trains for both Macon and Dublin will
leave at $50 o'clock, as formerly. The
schedules on the Tybee division of the
Central will be so arranged as TO con-
meet with these specials.
Means Increased Travel.
The officers of the Central feel that
with this improved schedule that will
be offered between Savannah and Ty-
bee, and interior Georgia points and
Tybee. will increase the travel to Ty-
bee to a point far in excess OF that of
any previous year.

Kaiser Is Scored for Favors,

NEW YORK, July IA cablegram
from Berlin says that 3O6 German pa
pers have printed protests against the
favors shown the Vanderbilts, the
Goelets and other American million
aires during the Kiel regatta. The re-
port that the Vanderbilts are pro-
ceeding northward on their steam yacht
in company with the Hohenzollern, on
which the kaiser will make his trip to
Scandinavia, is sure to cause fresh
outbursts. The Morgen Post contrasts
in fierce terms the kaiser's neglect in
not receiving a deputation of German
Southwest African cOlonists with this
favoritism toward Americans. The
papers say:
IF the kaiser has time to concern
himself with American mOneybags, he
Ought to find time to devote to the mis-
fortunes OF the Germans in Africa"

"ETHICALS" SCORE POINT
Judge Hanford Refuses to Interfere In
Dental Cases.

SPOKANE, Wash, July 15.-Judge
Hanford of the United States court has
refused to interfere with the prosecu-
ton by the state board of dental exam
iners of ''nonethcal" dentists who
have refused to take out a license as
required by the state law. Samuel r.
Stern, attorney for the state board has
received from Seattle a copy of an
opinion rendered by Judge Hanford in
which the court denies the application
of H. c. Littoy, a nonethical dentist
convicted at Seattle of practicing with
out a license, for a writ of habeas cor
pus.
Judge Hanford holds that there is no
occasion for the interference of the
federal court in prosecutions under
state statutes unless the invalidity of
the statute upon which the prosecution
is based is clearly apparent Such a
condition, he holds, does not exist in
the dental cases, especially as the

clipping is believed to have been the fate
of William Ford. aged 35 years. and
Emily Bogard, aged 16 years, near Mill
wood. this county. Coroner Twitch>lf
has just been notified by telephone and
will hold an inquest tomorrow.
The bodies were found in a stream
today. Why Ford and the young girk
who is niece of Deputy Sheriff Boz
gard, of Douglas county, should have
drowned themselves in one another's
company is a mystery solved only by
the elopment theory, which is general
ly believed. Ford leaves a family.
There is not the slightest doubt but.
that the drowning was done with suicf-
dial intent, and the only mystery is the
incentive for committing the act.
Apparently the secret lovers had
started on an elopement this morning.
and had not gone far when something
occurred which made certain ultimate
capture and disgrace for Ford. The
drowning took place five miles south of
Wildwood.

THE DEATH OF GEORGE

Is Now a Resident of Union County,
Oregon-He Has Peculiar
History.

LA GRANDE, Or, July 15.-At the
Union county pioneers reunion, held
in La Grande last week, the name Of
Moses Lore, Of Catherine Creek, was
brought up more than once. as he is
now the older living pioneer in the
county. Moses Lore is los years of
age, and was born where Montreal
now stands, seven days before George
Washington died. He is a French
Canadian and the oldest man in east
ern Oregon. For AZ years he has lived
a few miles from La Grande, on his
ranch, in the shadow of the Blue
Mountains, and three generations of
his family have made his house their
home, while the county of Union and
the state of Oregon have been practi-
ically hewn from the wilderness during
the last half of his eventful and thrill
ling life.
Born of French Canadian parents in
Montreal, in December, 1899, Lore when
a boy came to Detroit, then head
quarters for all the powerful Indian
tribes in the central west. At "a he

firing of the nomadic Indian life, and
hungerng for the sight of the white
man. he left the Indians and came to
the Clearwater, where ne worked for
Spaulding, the associate of Marcus
Whitman, for a year. He recalls
Spaulding's kindly teachings and re-
markedly humane treatment of the
Indians. and once warned the mis-
sionary of a plot among the Indians
to murder all the whites at the mis-
sion. He came on down the Snake and
Columbia and stopped at the Whitman
settlement. Land a little later went to
the willamette valley, joined the
French settlement in Marion county,
took part in the formation of the Ore
gon country and stood by the govern
melt of the United States against the
Hudson's Bay company.
He located a claim in French Prairie
in 1899, married a halfbreed woman,
from whom he was separated 80 years
ago and who lives in Union county
with a great granddaughter today, in
the Blue Mountains. He went to Cal
ifornia in search of gold, but returned
to Oregon AZ years ago, and has since
lived in eastern Oregon. He was the
first Frenchman to settle on Catherine
creek, settlement of French people
