WILL SOON START
WILMINGTON ROAD
ON TO TYBEE SUGGESTED.
SUCH A ROAD TO ISLAND WOULD
BE POPULAR, is 1T THOUGHT.

With Road Extended Through to
Tybee Trip Could Be Made from
City in an Automobile in 30 Min
utes-Parties FavOrinE Whining
tom Road Now Advocating Exten-
Observation-Disclosures Have Agreed
to Build Road to Wilmington.
The proposed road to Wilmington Is
land has been practically agreed upon
by the County Commissioners with the
exception of some few details, which
will probably be arranged within a
short time, and work on the road will
then be started Immediately.
1t has now been suggested, and there
is every reason to believe the plan will
be carried through, after the compile
ton of the road to Wilmington, that
it be extended to Tybee. From Sa-
vannah to Tybee the trip could be made
in an automobile in thirtyfive min
utes, advocates of this road declare.
The road to Wilmington Island is
now assured. The work will doubtless
be started within the next few weeks
Only a few details of the work are
delaying the matter now and there is
no doubt that the County Commits
sioners and the parties especially in
terested in the road will be able to
reach an agreement on these few ques-
tions.
ON to Tybee Island.
And as soon as the work on the road
to Wilmington is under way, the cry
will be "On to Tybee.'
To reach Tybee it will only require
an extension of the road across Will
mington and then across the river and
marsh. A ferry could be used, if it
were found impracticable to bridge the
river.
The parties interested in the road
are enthusiastic over the proposed ex-
tension. There is no doubt that it
can be secured, they say. There may
be come trouble in getting the COM
missioners to at once agree to it, but
it will certainly be built in time. they
say.
The plan for the road to Wilmington
is to cross from Thunderbolt to the
marsh on a cable ferry. A causeway
will be constructed through the marsh
to Whitmarsh Island. Across Whit
marsh and then on to Wilmington, the
road will extend, crossing the creek
dividing the two islands by bridge.
To BE Splendid ROnd.
1t is the intention of the commits
sioners to make the road an excep-
tionally fine one. 1t will be one that
Will be used almost constantly for
pleasure drives, though that will not
be it's only use by any means.
A number of truck farmers and gar
deners on Wilmington will be given
a ready means of reaching a market
and the number of residents on the
island will doubtless increase great
~ as soon as the road is constructed.
Already there are "A number of attrac-
tive summer homes there, but the in
convenience of getting to and from the
island has deferred many from pur-
chasing homes there. 1t is predicted
that the island will become one of the
most popular resorts about the city
as soon as the road is built.
The extension of the road to Tybee
would add to the attractiveness Of
both the islands.

COURT GAVE ADVICE
TO FATHER AND SON.
Negro Boy Was Acquitted on His
Second TriaI.

@NN9AO DOS W as On MS
Second Trial.
When the jury trying the case of
George Williams, colored, charged
with larceny after trust, returned a
verdict of not guilty. Judge Cam yes
terday called the father of the prison.
er, Raglan Williams, before him and
gave both father and son some sound
advice. In speaking to the father Judge
Cam said:
Il want you to keep a closer watch
over your boy and to teach him to be
honest and upright. You must keep
him in off the streets at night The
evidence in this case shows he has been
out on the streets as late at 10 o'clock
at night and that is where he learns
his bad ways. If you do not keep bet
ter watch over him no one can say
how he will end
Judge Cam then turned to the small
boy and gave him a sound lecture. 1T
is only because the jury was merciful,"
SAID Judge Cam, that you are not be-
ing sent to the penitentiary for at least
one year. You must be a better boy and
be honest. If you ever come here again
you VIII be heavily punished. You must
do as your father and mother tell you
and be honest in everything. 1t is
much easier to make an honest living
than to live by stealing. Remember, if
you ever come here again, you will be
punished heavily"
Williams, who is only 10 years of age,
was indicted some months ago for lar
ceny after trust. 1t was claimed he
had been entrusted with S., the prop
erty of r. J. Knight and had appro-
priated it to his own use. At the for
mer trial he was found guilty and sem
fenced to year in the penitentiary.
His attorney, Mr.. Frank McIntire,
at once moved for a new trial on the
ground that the indictment on which
the conviction was secured did not
state the value of the article with
which the defendant was entrusted. A
new trial was granted.
At the second hearing Mr.. McIntire
raised the plea that a conviction should
not be returned by the jury as the ten
der age of the defendant and his un-
developed mind made him incapable
of wilfully plotting crime. This plea
secured the boys acquittal

MATERIAL WITNESS
FOR STATE ABSENT.
Sudden stop to the TriaI of j. F,
Masters.

Masters.
There was rather a sudden ston nut
to the trial of ]. F. Masters in the
Superior Court yesterday shortly after
the state had opened the case.
Masters was being tried on a bur-
glary charge when it was found that
material witness was absent, and a
continuance was asked. A continu-
ance was granted until 9 o'clock this
morning by Judge Cam.
Real Estate Agent Fulton was the
first witness for the state. Under the
code to establish a burglary charge the
state must prove that there was a
breaking and entering" of the dwell
ing. This necessitated proving that
the house which was burglarized was
closed.
One of the first questions asked Mr..
Fulton was whether the house, which
was unoccupied, was closed. He an
swered that it was, and Mr.. Abrahams
then asked him how he knew. He
answered that his collector had told
him. Col. Robert L. Colding at once
objected, on the ground that the evil
dence was hearsay and therefore in
competent.
The objection was recognized even
before Judge Cam had ruled. A whis-
pered conference was held with Mr.
Fulton and the state asked that the
case be allowed to go over until this
morning, or until later at night Col.
COlding objected, on the ground that
he would be engaged in the City Court
to-day and that a business engage
ment would detain him at night.
After some argument Judge Cam
set the case for this morning at 9
o'clock, one hour earlier than the usual
time for opening the court. He then
cautioned the jury not to discuss the
case with anyone, and adjourned court.
The case is attracting considerable at
tention owing to the fact that the bur-
glariZed houses were set on fire.
