ANSWER, DEMURRER
AND PLEA FILED.
Mary Walsh Will Resist Eiectment
Suit Brought Against Her.

MARY "aAsH VIII Resist EIeCtmenC
Suit Brought Against Her.
In the Superior Court yesterday
Mary Walsh filed an answer a demur-
rer, and plea of lis pendens in the
suit in ejectment brought against her
by Elias A. We'll and others, substi-
tuted trustees.
In her answer the defendant denies
the claim of the plaintiffs to the prop
erty in question, setting up the claim
that her right and title to the property
was determined by a decision of the
court in 1873. from which there has
been no appeal and no change made.
A plea of lis pendens is set up, the
defendant claiming that the case of
Mary Walsh against Elias A. We'll,
and others, is still pending before the
court. This makes the same issue be-
tween the same parties in the same
court at the same time, and the de-
PENDANT, therefore, asks that the cause
of the plaintiff be dismissed.
demurrer, on various grounds, was
also filed

DID DEFAULTER
SAIL FOR JAPAN?
BALTIMORE FRIENDS SAY so.

Registered at De SOtO-Federica
Left Savannah Wednesday.
Did Luther NJ. Ramsey, the alleged
defaulting Superior Court cashier of
Baltimore, sail from Savannah We'd
nesday on the Austrian steamship Fed
erica for Barcelona?
This question is being asked by
two friends of Ramsey who are in the
city, stopping at the De Soto. They
received a letter from him Wednesday
night saying he was in Savannah and
Iona, and would make his way from
that port to Korea, and enlist in the
Japanese navy.
The two young men who claim to
be friends of Ramsey were very anx-
ious to keep their names from the pub
lie, but said they were puzzled to
know how he reached Savannah, as
the police department of Baltimore
had sent circulars containing his pic
ture to every city in the United States.
No circular was received here, how
ever. The young man is said to come
from a good family and served eight
years in the United States navy.
Told Friends He Would Fight.
The alleged defaulter is said to have
told Baltimore friends soon after the
beginning of the Russo-Japanese war,
that he intended to offer his service to
the Japanese minister at Washington
1t was not at that time that he was
short in his accounts. 1t is charged
that he embezzled several thousand
dollars, and did not leave Baltimore
until after the big fire.
During his service in the United
States navy he was stationed for sew
eral years with the Asiatic fleet, and it
is said that he speaks the Japanese
language. According to his friends
ne was at one time very much in love
with a Japanese girl in Toxic. Ram
sey is said to have been one of the
most popular young men in social cir
money, it is claimed, in entertaining
his friends.
Received Note from Ramsey.
His friends arrived in the city sew
eral days ago from Florida and had
no idea that Ramsey was anywhere
in the vicinity of Savannah. They re-
ceived a note late Wednesday after
noon from the alleged defaulting CASH
Ter, stating that he had sailed on the
steamer Federico as a member of the
crew. His friends were urged to de-
liver several messages to friends in
Baltimore. The young man expressed
his deep sorrow for his actions and
expressed the hope that he might some
day redeem himself.
The Federico took on several pas
sengers here for Genoa, where the
vessel will go after discharging it's
cargo at Barcelona. Senior Ramon
Esteve, Uruguayian consul, stationed
in this city, was among the passengers
on the steamer. He will spend several
months in Genoa. The vessel anchored
in the blight Wednesday night and
did not pass out Type bar until yester-

MAJ. RIVALS SAYS PEACHES
WERE NOT INJURED.
Has Just Returned from His Farm,
Near Ty Ty.

Maj. G. NJ. Ryals, who has just re-
turned from visit to his peach farm
near Ty Ty, says he does not think
the recent cold snap has in any way
damaged the fruit crop.
The prevailing high winds during the
few days of the cold spell kept off
the frost. Maj. Ryals believes the
peach crop is safe, unless there is an
other cold spell serious enough to dam
age the fruit.
Reports from all over the state now
indicate that the fruit crop was not
at all damaged by the recent cold
spell. The cold will probably prove a
benefit rather than otherwise, as it will
retard development, and thereby di-
minish the chances for future damage.

1t is now the plan of the representa-
tives of the labor class. and that con-
stitutes majority, to do away entirely
with alien labor. To send each and
every blackamoor back to his native
isle and to clear the land entirely by
1906. The effect this idea has had
upon the sugar industry has been little
less than disastrous. The laborer is
taken way ard nothing offered in his
place. The cry was that the black man
working for less wages was standing
in the place of the Australian citizen.
II this is SO the white worker will
have an opportunity to demonstrate
his ability to work in tropic fields.
One result of the ruling by the
masses is the great number of holidays
given. There is scarcely date in the
calendar which is not made an excuse
for closing the shop and leaving the
work. At Easter, for instance, all bust
ness houses are closed for four days.

THE DRAINAGE OF swAMPs
Farmers Who Have No Experience
in the Work Should Engage serv-
ices Of Engineer.

There is no general rule to guide in
experienced persons In the draining Of
swamp lands. The quality of swamp
land varies as much as do upland. AS
general rule here, cranberry and
moss swamp are not the ones to drain
for agricultural purposes, unless I'M
derlaid near the surface with we'll
rotted muck and clay subsoil. Swamps
covered with good timber, not scrub.
and all kinds of grass swamps, are al
most always all right for farming. A
good swamp farm well drained is all
right. Clay subsoil swamps are prefer.
able to sand or hardpan.
Loose soil should not be drained too
deep the first two or three years, but
gradually deepen the drains as the soil
settles, which on some swamps Is con-
siderable. Above all things do not
burn off the top soil. as such marshes
are nearly ruined. If not quite. 1t is
true some swamps are ruined by drain
ing, while others are benefited from
the first. AS said above. 1t depends
much on the kind and quality. Neigh

such matters would do well to engage
the services of an experienced engin-
eer AS to my own experience as a
swamp farmer, will say have been
quite successful, with no reason to
complain. grow hay. corn, potatoes,

A HIT FOR BEEkEEPERs.
How to Secure Full Service Of the
Honey-Makers Without Weak
ening the Colonies.

Aptarist Edwin Bevins claims to
have discovered two ways in which lay
Ing worker colonies can be disposed Of
SO as to get all the service out Of the
bees that they can render and yet keep
the numbers of the colonies up to what
it was before.
One way is to place the hive contain,
ing the laying workers over a strong
colony with fertile queen, placing a
newspaper with small hole in it be-
tween the two hives, says the New
York Farmer. The bees will unite
peaceably, and when considerable
motherhood appears in the upper hive
the hive can be placed on another stand
and the bees will rear queen from the
brood, If the old queen can be intro
duced about three days after the re-
moval of the hive.
The other plan involves the taking of
couple of frames of Matching brood
from hive and placing them in an
other hive over strong colony, with q
frame having wire cloth nailed to
both sides Of it between the two hives.
t Thus a fertile queen and her escort
are released on two combs, and in a
few days there will be a nucleus strong
enough to take care Of the queen. This
hive is then set down by the side Of
the hive holding the laying workers.
Every two or three days frame with
the bees must be transferred from the
laying-worker hive to the nucleus By
the time all but two of the frames are
placed in the new hive the queen is at
work there, and everything is harmoni-
Gus.
AS regards the two frames taken to
form the nucleus, they can be returned
to the places from which they were
taken, or these places can be filled by
the frames remaining unused in the
laying-worker hive

Labor is at the head and wages have

there is beginning to be a reaction.
Among the smaller manufacturers
there are many failures. The constant
demands Of the union leaders. the ever
increasing number of holidays has
made it impossible to run a concern
with any profit, and there is strong
influx of immigration toward the
states. In consequence of this there
is much idleness among the common

Thick duck really is more suitable to the

vantage, and though the windows are
displaying furs and heavy cloth, above
stairs the tables are strewn with what
people are buy1ng-left-over white cos
tunes, or separate skirts and coats. For
garden parties. and sometimes at church,
more elaborate white gowns are seen;
one of decided beauty, a white wolfe,
made with sort of surplice waist, full
skirt and elbow sleeves, some cluny lace
showing about the neck and down the
front of the waist?
Many ladies are being tempted to in

and the allwhite costume, for both shoes
and hose match, makes even an elderly
person look youthful The white felt
hats are round, rather low-crowned, and
trimmed with feathers or pompons in
military style. They look appropriate
with merely outing costume, and are
not at all out Of place with fancier
gown.
In the windows the white hats are
perched side by side with light-colored
ready-to-wears. whose trimmings show
the shades that are to be fashionable
later on. These shades are at once bril-
liant and soft; emerald, orange, copper
and cockscomb, the three latter promis-
ing to have no small vogue. AS for
millinery materials, chenille will again
be popular. shaded and plaid effects will
be worn. A beautiful imported hat of
cockscomb velvet is harmony of sew
eral tones, the under brim of plain veil
vet, the upper showing glimpses OF
taffeta of alighter coloring, and the bunch
of tips constituting the trimming of a
still lighter shade. Jet, steel and gold
glitter individually on the fall hats, and
embroidered bands will decorate the
ever-present picture hat. A departure,
and pretty one, is to have the hat brim
faced with fancy ribbon that blends with
the material of which the hat is COM
posed; for instance, dark blue velvet
nat is faced with MORE ribbon of hya-
cinth blue-carrying out the color
schemes so liked this summer.
Fashions in neck wear change tire

three rows of fine insertion and edged
