AUDIENCE PLEASED
WITH ROBERT
LOVENAN
THE SOUTHERN POET DELIGHT
FULLY ENTERTAINED LARGE
NUMBERS or BRuNswlcklANs
AT THE GRAND LAST NIGHT.

Robert Loyeman, of Dalton. who was
billed at the Grand last night under
the modest title of an evening with
Robert Loveman,' charmed and de-
lighted crowded house literally sing
Ing his way into the hearts Of his
hearers. 1t was feast from which
none went away save with a gladden.
ed heart and smile.
The program was one of selections
from the poets many verses, varied
by a solo by Mr.. George Sherman,
a selection by a male quartette, Mes
srs. Fleming, Sherman, Bailey and
Andrews, and an instrumental selec-
tion by Misses jamie Symons and
Alice Wilson, all of which received
hearty encores.
Mr.. Loveman, however, as the CEN
tral figure of the evenings entertain
ment, easily held his audience and
without effort Possessing a we'll
modulated voice and a pleasing musi-
cal enunciation, he overcame the
acoustic defects of the house to a
great extent so that those in the ex-
treme rear of the building were en-
abied TO enjoy the bountifui spread
with which he tempted his audience.
In making his selections Mr. Love-
man used rare judgment. picking here
and there a verse or two from a dia-
lect ryhyming them one from a lofty
theme, again to near Rileyism, then
off to a song of farvent prayer. The
wide range showed the versatility of
the singer as well as the improvement
in his verses of young manhood and
those of today
Mr.. Loyeman's ideal 1t can be
plainly seen is Riley, for try as he
may the Georgian cannot help but drop
at times into esaose tricks OF speech
by which Riley gripes the heart good
and strong and holds one while he
tells his story. 1t is a Georgia Riley,
however, and not an imitation, Riley
with his own individualism rippling
through his verses, a song always,
and never a sigh For the Georgian
is an opti st serene, dreamer and a
singer who will win his audiences to
him wherever he goes.
Mr.. Loveman is the guest of his
brother. B. A. Loyeman of S. Marks
& Co. He will be in the city several
days and will receive a warm well
come to Brunswick. A warm admirer
of Sidney Lanier. he will spend his
leisure time among the scenes made
famous by the beloved Lanier
Those who were so unfortunate as
to have mn led last evening with Rob
ert Lovemh have good cause for re-
gret. A return date will insure him
crowded house and an audience an
ticipating a royal spread.

HOG KILLING''
DAY I'm COURT
ONE CIVIL CASE OCCUPIED AT
TENTIoN OF THE CITY
COURT YESTERDAY.

Yesterday was "hog killing day" in
the city court and during the entire
day Judge Gales tribunal worked on
a case in which the killing of a num-
Der of hogs was the contention of the
two sides.
The case was that of John Curry,
of st. Simon, vs. the Board of Educa-
ton of Glynn County. The case was
taken up when the court convened
yesterday morning and when a recess
was announced late in the afternoon
1t was still on trial.
The suit was brought against the
board of education by Mr. Curry for
the alleged killing of some hogs on
st. Simon and the suit is proving to
be an amusing and interesting one.
1t is expected that the case will be
completed today and other civil mat
ters will be taken up The criminal
branch of the business will probably
be reached tomorrow.

NEAR BEER TAX
CONSTITUTIONAL
JUDGE JUDGE DECIDES DECIDES
AN IMPORTANT DECISION MADE
YESTERDAY IN FULTON su-
PERloR COURT.
Similar Cases Are Pending in Many
Counties in the state-Looks
Like Near Beer Dealers Will
Have to Pay the Tax.

ATLANTA. Oct. ga decision
which was handed down by the super
ior court of Fulton county today, is CT
interest in almost every county of the
state. insomuch as the same question
is now pending in many counties and
the decision of the case in Fulton
county has been awaited with more
than usual interest by those interest
ed.
The decision is on. the new tax
placed upon near beer by the last
legislature. and which has been stub
hornlsAopposed in several cities of the
state. There now being eight or ten
test cases pending.
A case was carried to the superior
court some time ago by local near
beer dealer who claimed that the new
law was not constitutional. Several
reasons were given for the unconsti-
tutionality of the tax
Lawyers for both the near beer
dealer and the state appeared in the
superior court and argued their re-
spective cases and today Judge Call
houn handed down decision, holding
that the tax was constitutional, which
means that 1t must be paid by all
near beer dealers in Fulton county
This decision will probably have
some weight on similar cases pending
In other counties in the state.

FIGHTING ALONG
THE FRONTIER IS
NOW IMMINENT
BULGARIA AND TURKEY FORCES
MAY SOON ENGAGE IN
A BATTLE.
Situation is Now Quite Serious and
Frontier Fighting is Liable
to Begin at Almost
Any Minute.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 6--At the
war Office today it was officially denied
that there has been passage of rms
between the Bulgarian and TURKISH
troops on the frontier. Meagre meth
DDS of communication bring the news
that the armies are not within fight
ing range, although it is declared that
an advance is expected and news of
firing is imminent.
Whether a skirmish is merely nee
essary to open the gates of warfare is
something which cannot be definitely
settled, The tremendous influence
OF the greater European powers Is
for peace and it is hardly likely thar
in view OF the information given forth
today long and bloody warfare will
result.
Russia is in favcr of a conference
between the powers and England will
probably support Russia's views.
Austria Hungary will take the ag-
gressive, supported by Germany, while
France is willing to act as mediator
unless Austria Hungary persists in
her demand for Turkish territory.

Garry Ans, HsaI.


While, Glynn county yosess hale
manifested bul lltGe inter st in the
state election u be held today. it is
nevertheless one Of The most :Iapor-
tant held in recent years IN this state
and it is Tie duty Of every qualified
democrat to go to the polls and vote,
not only to give the democratic candi-
date a large majority over his inde-
pendent opponent, but for the reason
that a constitutional amendment is to
be voted upon which is of vital in
terest to every white person in the
state and for the fact that it win take
a two-thirds majority of the total
vote Of the state to carry the amend
ment.
The amendment in question is the
one for the disfranchisement Of the
negro, an issue which has been be-
fore the people Of the state for a
number of years and which should be
finally settled today.
That a large majority of the voters
1of the state favor the amendment
there is no doubt whatever, but get
ting them to the polls is going to be
a difficulty which may cause the de-
feat of the amendment. Negroes in
all sections of the state have register
ed in large numbers in an effort to
Gefeat the amendment and every one
of them who can possibly do so will
go to the polls today and vote against
il. In this county alone more than
200 have qualified AL they viii poll
their full strength.
Leading democrats OF the state have
beep fighting for this amendment for
some time and finally succeeded in
getting a bill through the legislature
calling for the election, therefore it
is the duty of every democrat to go
TO the polls today and vote.
Governor Hoke Smith, who cham
pioned the measure in his first race for
governor, last week issued a signed
appeal to the white voters of the state
to assist in ratifying the amendment.
1t is sincerely hoped that the full
strength of the registration viii be
voted In Glynn county today.
