SAVANNAH'S FIRST
ELECTRIC AUTOMOBILE.

The appearance of the first electric
automobile in Savannah was in the To-
cal automobile circles as much of an
event as the appearance of the safety
bicycle fifteen years ago was to the
local wheelman. The machine is of
the closed carriage type and is the
property of Mr.. S. P. Shotter.
The motor power of the machine is
generated by an electric storage bat
terry and one storage is sufficient for
forty-mile trip with the automobile.
The Savannah Electric Company has
installed a motor generator at Mr..
Shelters residence to be used in
charging the new machine.
The machine moves without the least
particle of noise and does not have the
disagreeable odor which is so common
to the gasoline automobiles, and for
these reasons it is very noticeable
among the many automobiles which
appear on the streets of Savannah
daily
Manager c. B. Kidder of the Savan-
nah Electric Company says that he is
informed that there will be quite a
number of the electric machines pur-
chased in Savannah before the summer
season opens.
The machines cost very little more
than those with the gasoline motor
power and are far more desirable than
the old style machines.
The manufacturers of these machines
also claim that enough money is saved
in the differences of the repairs re-
quired for the two classes of machines
in one year to more than pay the diff
ference in the price of the two ma
chimes.

MANY ARE SLOW
IN MAKING RETURNS

City Assessors VIII Have to Inn
pose Double Taxes.
It looks as II a great many people
win be double taxed by the Board of
Tax Assessors this year for not MAX
ing returns of personal property as
required by ordinance.
The books in the Office of the Asses
sors have been open since Jan. /, but
will close on Jan. 20. Those who have
not made returns by that time will be
double taxed. The assessors have no
discretion in the matter. and are re-
quired to impose the double tax in
every case. TO date only about half Of
the tax payers have made returns.
Quite number of these mailed their
returns and saved time.

Numerous Articles.

The home of Mr.. w. H. Way, at
No. 122 Thirty-ninth street, east, was
entered by a burglar night before last
while Mr.. Way and his family were

discovered.
The thief entered the premises by
forcing the lock on the back door, then
went through the house pretty thor
oughly emptying out the contents of
trunks and drawers, selecting such
things as pleased his fancy, and leav-
ing the remainder just as ne had tum-
bled them out.
So far an inventory shows that he
secured a little more than $40 in cash.

bracelet and some other jewelry,
among ii a pair of diamond-set cuff
buttons, one of which was afterward
found on the back steps; two suits of
clothes, a pair of trousers and a few
miscellaneous articles.
The burglar evidently feared to light
the gas for a large number of burnt
matches were found scattered through
the rooms he had visited His use of
this means of Illuminating his work
came near causing the house to catch
fire. for through his carelessness. or
haste, he ignited the scarf on dresser
and the flimsy fabric was completely
consumed, though, fortunately, the
flames were communicated to nothing
else.
The man was evidently familiar with
the arrangement of the house and so
lost no time. once inside. in ransack-
ing the place and getting out again. In
forcing the outer door he left a mark
Of paint or whitewash, as though he
had placed his shoulder against the
panel. Though the house has not be-
fore been robbed. this is the third or
fourth time it has been visited by bur-
glars. On former occasions they failed
to effect an entrance

RUNAWAY HORSE
SMASHED HACK.

A horse attached to a street hack
gave an illustration last night that
even a hack horse can run when he
wants to. despite his ordinary pace.
The horse in question became freight
ened somewhere in the vicinity of
West Broad and Liberty streets.
In a mad plunge he smashed the hack
shortly after he started. so that the
rear part of the vehicle became de-
tached from the main body, and was
left near the scene of the first stam-
pede.
The frightened animal continued his
fight eastward on Liberty street, and
when at Abercorn managed to free
himself from the remainder of the hack.
Even his freedom did not assauge his
fright for ne continued his pace I'M

EASY WAY TO CURE CATARUH.

Breathe Hyomel and XIII All Catarrh'
al Germs. Money back II It falls. says
II, A, Smith.
There is no dangerous stomach drug
eing when using Hyomei. The healing
aud aromatic balsams which compose
this wonderful treatment are breathed
through a neat pocket inhaler that comes
with every 81 outfit.
In this way, the germ killing and
giving Hyomei penetrates to the
most remote cells OF the lungs. 1t
searches out and kills disease germs in the
air passages of the head, throat and nose,
soolhes and heals the irritated mucous
membrane, and absolutely drives catarrh
f ON the system.
Such remarkable results have followed
the use of Hyomei by the best people In
Olncyvillc that Is. a. Smith has the
greatest confidence In it's power To cure
entarrh. lie believes In II so thoroughly
that he will give his personal guarantee
to refund the money II 1t does not cure,
the purchaser To be sole Judge.
This is an unusual offer and the first
time that any medicine or treatmen; for
the cure ol catarrh has been sold In this
way. IL II cures, the expense Is uitling,
while IL II fails, the cost is absolutely
nothing.
