GERONIMO IN CID AGE.
He Is No Longer Locked Upon as .
Chief by the Apaches.


Chief BY the Apaches.
Geronimo was at Lawton last week
The health Of the old chief is still
good, although he is very aged. His
home is ten miles from Lawton, yet
he usually walks TO and from the
place 10 do his trading.
He is quite often asked to give ar
exhibition of his skill as marks
man with the bow This he readily
consents to do provided nickel Is
made the target and it becomes his
own in case bc hits il.
Geronimo denies the statement oi
Gen. Miles that the general captured

was on the wsrTath. two white mer
came to him and told him that Gen
Miles wanted to see him.
The men accompanied him to the
camp of the general and he was made
a prisoner. Geronimo says he thinks
it was in Arizona, the territory Of his
birth. Anyway, he says it was up in
the mountains.
The tribal relations Of the Apaches
have been dissolved, and they no long

Another distinct type Of ZOO rogue

Of his teacher when but a helpless
cub, had never lost his liking for ca
resses, and although the mightiest
oeast in the collection, was least sus
pected Of being dangerous. once, when
a striped hyena hung to the ankle Of
his friend, he had run to the rescue,
and cut loose right and left with his
ponderous fore paws. and had bitten
and torn and mangled the ugly beast
to death before he could be beaten
of. Among his accomplishments were
that of turning admirably grotesque
somersaults and the more difficult feat
OF balancing himself on his hind legs
on three-fCot wooden sphere.
Not a scratch or a scar had his
trainer to show for the years of work
he had put in with the hear. And yet
without an instants warning, this
same beast attacked and injured his
master so that, when rescued, he was
semi-demented, and so dreadfully cut
and lacerated that the surgeons de.

POLICE TO BE REWARDED
FOR FAITHFUL SERVICE.
Every Man on the Force Will Have
a Days Holiday.

Every Man on the Force Will Have
Days Holiday.
Regular hours We're resumed by the
police yesterday, and those who have
been doing extra duty breathed sigh
of relief. The members of the force
were especially thankful that there
were so few violations of the city and
state codes.
Taking the many conditions operat-
ing to make the holidays just passed
unusually trying for the police it is
highly complimentary TO the depart
ment that there were so few serious
crimes, and in appreciation of this the
superintendent of police ordered that
each man on the force be given a day
off, to be taken any time within the
next thirty DAYS.
When the order was read to the de-
tail going out last night the men cheer
ed Justify, and expressed their ap-
probation of this consideration. The
superintendent said he was highly
pleased at the judicious manner in
which all of the men had conducted
themselves, and the care they had ex-
ercised not to burden the dockets with
cases which were really of not enough
important to require an arrest.
Not a man shirked MS duty during
the holidays. and there was not a
single absentee from duty an account
of sickness or any other cause. The
arrests which were made proved, in
every case, to have been justifable,
and the Recorder assessed fines in each
case.

MAJORITY MUST FAVOR
STOPPING THE NOISE.
Mayor Myers on Protest of BrOugh-

Mayor Myers on Protest of BrOuEh-
ton Street Merchants
The present city administration will
give the people what they want, and
the noise on Broughton street on
Christmas Ewes will be stopped,
if it is shown a majority of the peo-
pie want it stopped" said Mayor My
ers yesterday. when asked about
the protest from the Broughton street
merchants.
i think the merchants are wrong
about one thing, though 1 admit they
are in a better position to know than
am. / do not believe there are very
many people who postpone their shop
ping until the night before Christmas
and for that reason, I don't think the
noise keeps the merchants from get
ting as much trade as they think. But
as l say they really ought to know
about the matter better than l do.
If it can be shown that a majority
of the people want the noise stopped,
why it can be done. 1t will have to
be taken up by Council though, and
an ordinance passed. Though there
was a great deal of noise. don't
think it amounted to much. There
was no serious disorder, so far as I
know. There were no killings within
the city and no fires of any conse>
quence. l think we are to- be con-
graduated on that"

SORRY FOR BREAKING
LIGHT FOUR YEARS AGO
Mayor Myers Received Queer Letter
from MilledgeviIle.

Mayor Myers yesterday received
letter from an inmate of the state in
sane asylum at Milledgeville, apollo
giving for breaking one of the electric
street lights here on the first day of
February, 1901.
AS the street lights belong to the
Savannah Electric Company and not
to the city, the Mayor did not feel
at liberty to accept the apology and
the. letter was referred to President
George ]. Baldwin.
Following is copy of the rather
peculiar letter:
State Sanitarium, Milledgeville, Bald
win Co., Sat-, Dec. "a, 19O4-Hon.. Her
man Myers, Mayor, Savannah, Chat
ham Co, Ga. Dear Sir:-I seat
myself to apologize for break
ing an electric street light with
peice of stone on Williams street
between West Broad and Fahm streets
about the LIST. of FEBRUARY in the year
1901. I herein sincerely beg your par
don and faithfully promise not to act
in such rash manner again. Please
answer. Respectfully,
Sanford r. Cook
1t is not known here who Sanford
r. Cook is, but it is thought he must
be one of the patients sent to Mill
edgeville from Savannah. DIR. Drummer,
the city health officer, who is one Of
the trustees of the sanitarium, could
not recall any such patient.

OVERCHARGED CUSTOMERS
AND WAS ARRESTED.
Bath Proprietor Then Said Man
Used Too Much Water.

Used Too Much Water.
When Mr.. Isadore Zimmerman, from
small station in the interior, ar
rived in Savannah yesterday morning
he Immediately became possessed of
desire to purchase the luxury of a
bath in a porcelain tub with hot wa
ter and plenty of towels
w. A. Hazard conducts a barber
shop, with baths in connection, near
the Union Station, and the visitor
repaired thereto to remove some of
the travel stains. According to Haz-
yards statement he must have been
very dirty when he first came in, for
he used three tubs of water and three
times the usual number of towels.
This was the negros excuse for the
overcharge.
Mr.. Zimmerman handed Hazard a
dollar, and was much surprised when
he received only Is cents in change.
He protested that the advertised price
of bath was 25 cents, and he did not
intend paying more. When it became
apparent that 1t was hazardous to ar
que further the customer appealed to
the police. Hazard was arrested and
will be tried in Police Court this
morning on the charge of cheating
and swindling, it being evident to the
police that advantage had been taken
of a stranger.
