GRAND JURY BUSY
INVESTIGATING
CASES
LARGE NUMBER OF WITNESSES
BEFORE THE BODY YESTERDAY.
THE INDICTMENTS MAY sz
RETURNED.

The Glynn county grand jury is
busy this week.
Whenever the grand jury is in ses-
sion there are always rumors that
this case and that case is being A.
vestigated. The man who plays a
little sociable game Of cards oceas-
ionaily knows,the jury is trying TO get
evidence against him; the man who
happened TO have pistol in his hip
pocket about six months ago wonders
who all saw him with it, the small
boy who has been given or sold cigar
cites wonders what he win tell when
he goes before tie jury. while the
dealer if there is any, who has sold
TO him, is afraid that it is his case
which the jury Is investigating N
fact every person who has, in any
way, violated the law lives a nervous
life while the jury is in session
Rumors that the grand jury vas
investigating various cases were cur
rent yesterday and the feeling Of I'M
rest again prevailed. The fact that
large number of people had been
summoned to appear before the jury
started the talk and everybody was
asking the same question; What is
the grand jury investigating"
Among those summoned yesterday
were large number of young boys,
who reported to the jury after school,
many OF them even before going to
their homes. Some of the boys were
badly frightened and were sure they
would never get to school again.
Just what the jury wanted with all
OF these witnesses, of course, is not
known, but it is understood that two
or three cases were investigated du.-
ing the day, among them the recent
tearing down OF the negro house on
G street. Whether or not the jury
succeeded in getting evidence which
would implicato any one is not known,
but It was stated that every possible
effort was being made to get soln3
light as to who assisted In ths. lazy
less work.
The jury will continue in session to-
day and tomorrow and will then recess
until the second Monday in Janu-
airy.

Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,

It corrects inability to hold water

the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root

KENTUCKY'S FOREST SERVICE.

lhlS season cooperative Stuuy
of Kentucky's forest resources by
the State and Federal Government
will be begun about June LIST. AS
was the case last year, the expense
of the investigation will be borne
jointly by the State Board OF Agrl-
culture and the United States For
est Service, each approprlatlng
1000, which, together with APP
proximately 81, 500 left over from
last year, making $500 available
for the work. j. S. Holmes, OF the
section of cooperation in the For
est Service, who had charge OF the
study last summer, will again dl-
rect the work.
1t is proposed to start small
party in the south mountain coun-
ties early in June. 1t is hoped that
in July more men will be added to
the force, who will take up the
study in two other sections OF the
state. The method of working will
be similar to that employed last
year. The foresters will take the
region, county-by county, travel
/ ing over it on foot or on horseback
The percentage of forest and clear
land will be aseertained, and as ac-
curate an estimate as possible made
of the available supply of timber IN
each county.
The general condition of the for
ests, whether cut over or virgin
whether burned over or injured BY
| insects or other enemies, and espee
ially the result of past numbering
will be noted, so that specific re
Communications can be made tt
! guide the owners in the care ans
management of their timber lands
A study of the timber industrle
will be made with the object 0
suggesting less wasteful methods
IF such are possible. The question
Of fire protection, protection iron
stock, forest planting, and the I'm
provement of the stands, will re
eeive special consideration.
Kentucky Is 40 exceptionally sit
uated, with many Of her larg
streams rising within her own Dor
| ders, that she can most prohtabl
conserve her water resources, an
! for this reason, as well as for tn
production of timber, the forests o
this State mead special care. 1T
likely that this study will lead t
the Inauguration of a liberal an
far-sighted policy. There are sign
that the need of such policy
rapidly coming to be appreciate
by the people of the State, an
that Kentucky will soon be one
the leading states in the movemeI
for the better care and protectlt
of forests.
