More Than 200 Registered Yester-
day, Making New Record.
The books for the registry of all
; liquor and cigarette dealers opened
yesterday morning in the Court Of
Ordinary. and before the closing hour
more than 200 had registered.
This makes a new record for regis
tries on the first day, and the clerks
were kept busy attending to all the
business. OF the total number who
registered, lis were liquor dealers 81
cigarette dealers, and 3S registered as
conducting miscellaneous business
that comes under the law.
1t is probable that the action of the
recent grand jury in the Superior Court
10 indicting all who had not paid their
specific taxes had much to do with
hurrying things up. Announcement
had been made that all who failed to
register before the first of the year
would be prosecuted for conducting a
business without a license, and this
will be rigidly enforced.
Ihough there were many cigarette
dealers who registered, attention is
again called to the fact that Il is neces-
sary for all who have cigarette papers.

giving them away. at their places of

quires that all who aid In furnishing
the public with cigarettes, either d.
rectly or indirectly must register, and

prosecution.

ZONE THAT LOVED NOT
WISELY BUT TOO WELL"

Being an Account of the Marital
Woes of a Savannah Barber.
A heart that had a great longing for
wives has landed one John Jackson, in
all manner of troubles. In fact his
troubles are as numerous as his wives
and if such a thing be possible, they
are more serious. Certain it is that
John has two wives and it is even
charged that there is a third in Au-
gusta.
John does not wear the one-piece
under-garment of the devotees OF the
Mormon Temple, nor does there flow
through his veins the blood of the
harme-loving Turk, nor the festive
Arabian. But he loves wives devotedly
and never yet has he had his fill Of
them. The Mormon marries some OF has
wives spiritually but such course
was not sufficient for John and he mar
ried them all actually and in the flesh.
AS a result he seems destined to travel
from the lathered, tip-lined road of the
barber to the rock paths of the peni-
tertiary.
According to the state John first got
married in Augusta. This union last
ed for only a short time and then the
woman was left alone by John while
he come to Savannah. He had been here
but a short time when he married his
second wife and the two lived hap
PLY for time.
Then again separation came and
John went one way, while his wife
went another. incidentally his wife,
Chat is to say his second wife) went
broke, while John was earning $40 a
week as barber. So the wife brought
suit for alimony in the Superior Court
and asked the law to set aside for her
portion of Johns wages.
In the meantime John developed a
desire to try yet a third time the
chance of the matrimonial lottery and
he drew wife No. 8. A license was Sc
cured on Dec. 8. Then came rumors
that the first wives were going to
raise trouble and John, with child-like
blandness and innocence. announced
that he did not intend to marry the wife
No. 8, but took out the license, paying
S2.25 for it, only for effect.
Yesterday the license was returned to
the Court of Ordinary together with the
certificate of a minister that he had
Joined John to his third wife. A war
rant for John was at once sworn out
and he was carried before Justice Shelf
tall for hearing. The justice bound
him over and as the barber could get
no bail he was lodged in jail

THREE TUBS OF WATER
MADE THREE BATHS.
And Recorder Dismissed Charges
Against West Side Barber.

And Recorder Dismissed Charges
Against West Side Barber.
1t is feared in. police circles that the
decision of the Recorder in the case in
Police Court yesterday morning
against w. A. Hazard. charged with
cheating and swindling Isadore Zim-
norman, a customer in his barber
shop. viii set a precedent which will
cause the department no end of
trouble.
This is not the first instance where
customers in West Broad street barber
shops have been charged fees which
they considered exorbitant, a case very
similar to this having been reported
several months ago.
In that instance the customer went
to sleep in the chair and the barber
took advantage of the opportunity to
give him everything in his repertoire,
charging him space rates. When the
customer awoke and was told what
he owed he Immediately sought an
officer and had the man arrested for
cheating and swindling. 1t was held
in that case that the man had not re-
ceived all that he had paid for, and
he was remanded.
But there is a question involved in
was solved by the Recorder with re-
gard to conditions which sometimes,
but not always, exist. It involves the
number of tubs of water it requires
TO properly battle a persons.
According to the defense put forth
by Hazard, who was being tried for
cheating and swindling, the accusa-
lions being that he had only returned
% cents out of a dollar rendered him
in payment for a bath, the customer
had used three tubs of water when
he was only entitled to one.
Mr.. Zimmerman argued that bath
was a bath, and that the number of
gallons of water which a customer de-
sired to splash over himself was at
his own discretion. 1t now turns on
the question of how many will agree
with the Recorder that one tub full of
water is sufficient to cleanse the body.
This is a mere matter of existing
conditions, which may not always be
the same as in the case of the well
groomed citizen.
The Recorder took the position that
Hazard had a right to charge 20
cents for a BATH one tub of water to
constitute a bath, and dismissed the
case against Hazard. In future gen.
tlemen who are tempted to use more
than a certain amount of water in
taking a bath will have to agree on
a price for each extra dash.

POSTPONED THE SUIT
TO RECOVER GOODS
Action in Silverberg Bankruptcy
Case Goes over for Present.

Action In StlverberE bankruptcy
Case Goes over for Present.
The action of the trustee of 1. Silver
berg & Co., bankrupts, to recover GER
tain goods now in the possession of
M. Ferst's Sons & Co. and alleged to
be the property of the bankrupt COM
pany, was set for a hearing before
Judge A. H. MacDonell, referee in
bankruptcy, at noon yesterday. Owing
to certain unforeseen circumstances
arising, however. the hearing of the
case was postponed until a later date.
1t will probably come up before the
referee some time next week.
The action arises out of the fact
that the Ferst company levied an at
tachment on the Union Grocery Com
pany, a concern conducted by I. Sill
verberg, on the ground that the gro
Gerry company owed them for the
goods. The attachment was levied, the
goods offered for sale, and bought in
by Ferst's Sons e. Co.
Under the bankruptcy laws the act
of bankruptcy throws out all levies and
attachments executed within four
months of the time of taking out the
bankruptcy papers. On these grounds
the trustee of the Silverberg assets
brought suit against ~. Ferst's Sons
& Co. to recover the goods on which
they had levied and later brought in,
the trustee claiming that they were
exempt from the levy under the bank
ruptcy act. The action will be con-
tested by the Ferst Company and must
be passed upon by Judge MacDonell.

DANGER FROM FOUNTAINS
IS A MINIMUM.
Health omcer Drummer Says There's
Danger I'm Living at All.

- A%ANA@-S - 49,
Some question has arisen whether
the public drinking fountains that have
recently been placed in the squares
and elsewhere will not be a menace to
public health.
win they not carry germs of tu-
berculosis from one person to another?"
has been asked.
Health officer w. F. Drummer does
not regard the fountains as especially
dangerous in this line, though, and
discussed the matter in a rather hui
:norous way.
There is danger everywhere" he
said. There Is danger in staying
where you are and there is danger in
walking across the street. There is
danger in breathing, in eating, in
sleeping-in everything in fact.
TO be absolutely safe we would
have to breathe sterilized air, eat ster-
ilized food, wear sterilized clothes,
sleep in a sterilized bed, associate only
with other sterilized people, and,
guess finally, be buried in a sterilized
coffin.
There is. of course. danger every
where, but these dangers are so mini
mixed that we need not consider them .

AN EYEWITNESS
To Y0UNG'S DEATH
JACKSONVILLE MAN SAW 1T.
DID NOT KNOW THAT WOMAN WAS
CHARGED WITH MURDER.

Was I'm New York on Night Murder
of Caesar Young by Nan Patterson
In Alleged to Have Been Com
mitted, and Saw Young shoot
Himself While Struggling With
the WOman-said He Would Go to
New York and Testify, hut Didn't.
An instance where truth is stranger
than fiction has probably filled a
missing link in the evidence in the
Nan Patterson case, and a letter from
city is now on its way to
Attorney A. Levy, leading counsel for
the defense in the famous case, con-
veying the information that a wealthy
naval stores man in Jacksonville,
Fla, saw Caesar Young fire the
shot which ended his life
The mans name is almost identical,
with the exception of the initials, of
one of the witnesses who testified at
the coroner's inquiry into the killing
His name is w. B. Myers. and so far
as can be learned is no relation to
,Algernon C. Meyer, whip made a
statement before the coroner's jury
Immediately after the death of Young.
Mr.. Algernon Meyer. however, has
never been subpoenaed to appear in
the case.
How story Came Out.
The manner in which the fact that
Mr.. Myers was a witness to the shoot
ing was learned by Judge Twiggs is
somewhat strange. The Florida man
had some legal matters to transact
with the Savannah attorney, and call
ed here to see him a few days after
the shooting in New York. Business
matters were soon disposed of and the
two began talking of events that had
transpired since their last meeting.
Casually Mr.. Myers mentioned the
fact that while in New York he had
witnessed a most remarkable affair
and, in response to a question,
stated that he had seen a man shoot
himself in cab, giving the
exact location of the Patterson
Young affair. He stated that he had
learned that the mans name was
Young. but that the name of the wo-
man he had not learned.
Judge Twiggs then informed him
that Nan Patterson had since been ar
rested for the murder of Young. Mr..
Myers at once exclaimed that
the girl was innocent, and he
knew it. He finally consented
to send his name to her and to go to
New York and testify during the trial.
Watched for Testimony.
During the progress of the trial
Judge Twiggs watched eagerly for the
testimony of Mr.. Myers and was
greatly surprised when it was not
used by Mr.. Levy. He concluded that
the man had not written to the girls
counsel and yesterday morning he de-
cided to do so himself
The letter was a short one, merely
setting forth the facts in the case.
1t stated that Mr.. Myers, giving his
Jacksonville address, is a man of high
standing and reputation. that he had
volunteered the information that he
saw the shooting, and had signified
his willingness to testify in the girls
behalf. All needed information was
contained in the letter.
The next trial of the show girl will
be watched with even more interest
than was the former one by Savannah
ians, owing to the fact that impor-
tant evidence for the defense has
come indirectly from here.

TO LOOK AFTER
RENOVATED BUTTER,
Dealers who Sell from Original
Packages to Lose the Butter.

Dealers Who Sell from original
Packages to Lose the Butter.
The Commissioner of Internal Re-
venue has issued an order requiring
the seizure and forfeiture of renovated
butter, removed by dealers from the
original packages and sold outside of
these packages. There is large
amount of renovated butter sold in
Savannah, and in the winter season a
good deal of it is sold by the pound
from the tubs in which it is originally
packed. This is a violation of the in
ternal revenue laws.
There has been no strict enforce
ment of the law heretofore, although
in a few instances packages have been
seized. The practice of selling in small
amounts out of the original package
has become so common that the Com
missioner of Internal Revenue has
directed a strict enforcement of the
law and the seizure and confiscation of
all butter sold in that way.
The deputy collectors have been
instructed to seize and sell in the usual
was all renovated butter in original
packages which have been broken and
sold from by retail dealers.

COLD WEATHER DROVE
TRAMPS TO POLICE.
Tattered Tourists Sought Comfort of
Fire and Bedding.

Tattered Tourists Sought Comfort of
Fire and Bedding.
For the first time this winter appli-
cation was made at police headquar-
tiers last night by six white men for
lodging.
The applicants did not appear to be
of the usual hobo variety. but stated
that they were out of employment,
and were forced to ask for shelter from
the cold weather.
The speaker for the sextette said
they had spent the last three nights
sleeping in the woods, but now that
the weather had suddenly turned cold
they were forced to apply for lodging
under a roof.
Desk Sergeant Baughn directed the
men to the w. c. T. u. home on Lib
erty street, but they soon returned with
the statement that the home was so
crowded they were unable to get &C.
commodations. They were given a
place to sleep in the police prison.
