Sultan of Morocco Has $5,ooO,oOo
Worth of Jewels There.

Afdul-AZi~, sultan of Morocco, Ia
taking no chances OF losing his per-
sonal 1ewelry in the course of one of
the frequently recurring disturbances
In his COZ ry. Locked up in the
vaults Of .ank near Charing Cross,
London, the jewels, valued at $5,000,-
600, or" guarded night and day They
occ' space less than the size
OF Uushel basket and lie about thirty
feet below the level of the Strand.
Not far away. in the same vault,
are several million pounds worth of
unclaimed jewelry, some of which was
deposited there during the French
revolution. french people, fearful of
being rnbb N the reign OF terror,
secretly conveyed their possessions to
London and vast quantity has been
left uncalled for. The bank authorities
have failed in every effort to locate
the original owners heirs.
An offer of $-,25c,00O as a loan on
the sultan's jewelry has been made,
but the sultan is anxious to raise
much more than that.

Why the Policeman is DisIiked.


Many telephone messages that come
In to the police department at night
dre sent by women, according to the
New York Times.
They wait a policeman hurried up
to their block for every reason imagin-
able" said one officer. Maybe they
want him to look up an absent hus,
band, or ma''be there is a suspicious
person prowling around the neighbor.
hood, or noisy quarrel going on next
door, or dog bowling in the back
yard, or n riano going at unseemly
hours. All these things and hundred
others are sufficient to send q nervous
woman to the telephone to ask why in
the name Of all that is wonderful our
men don't attend to their duty and
stop such unlawful proceedings. OBJ
viously 1t is impossible to respond to
all those calls. The most active 10.
hceman alive cant put muzzle on
every dog that takes it into his head
TO howl after midnight; neither can
he walk right into q mars house and
order him to stop nagging at his wife
Women with the telephone habit, how.
ever, can't understand that. That Is
why they don't like policemen"

FROM SUPERVISOR BECK
Presents His Record to the Voters and
Asks for Their Support

To the Citizens of Marion County
wish to ask your support in the pri-
mary Of June 16 for Supervisor Of
Registration.
I have held this place for only about
eight months. I have tried to do my
duty and believe that l have strictly
followed the law.
The report that 1900 names were
improperly stricken from the registra-
tTon books is totally untrue and has
been circulated purely to defeat me.
When took hold of the books, I, founl
hundreds of persons on them that had
moved out of the county or district
or were dead The law says when it
comes to my notice that any person
has moved from the state, county or
his election district. that the registra-
ton officer shall strike them off by
running a pen through their names.
This did after getting the advice of
Mr.. Duval and Mr.. Hooker who is at
turney for the county commissioners
In all there were about 1900 names
stricken and most of these were me-
groes, and not half dozen names
stricken improperly. There were four
or five names stricken by mistake,
after these names had been properly
advertised. There were only 140 of
them even applied to be restored and
most of these were negroes. / wish to
say right here that Mr.. Alfred Ayers
rame was not stricken from any pre-
cinct in the county and he was regis
tered alright at Mcintosh, and could
II ave voted in the wet and dry election.
Those who did apply for restoration
had to be restored to the precinct in
which they were registered and then
transferred to another, showing that
hey had moved and their names
stricken according to law. l am will
ling for any citizen in the county or
any set of men to investigate every
act of mine. and IL they find anything
illegal will resign at once.
Again thanking you for your sup
port on June 10Th, I am
Yours truly, j. L. Beck.
