NOT A MOTORISTS PARADISE
Auto Racers Have Unpleasant Experi-
 ences In Siberian WiIds.

Paris, May 29.--A special dispatch to the Matin from Nikolsk, dated May 2S, says:
 "The American car in the New York to Paris automobile race continued along the tracks of the Transsiberian railroad. having had narrow escape from being run down by an express train and from falling over precipice 200 feet in descent owing to the sub- sidence of badly laid ballast. Spies of brigand bands that have been captured recently state that the automobilists are in danger of being attacked. as it is believed by the brigands that they are very rich.

TALLEST ELK
IN The WORLD
H 6. CLARK, MEASURING SIX
FEET TEN INCHES, WAS
HERE YESTERDAY.


Brunswick had as a visitor yester-
day, H. c. Clark, of Tampa. who has
the very unique distinction of being
the tallest Elk in the world. When
the Elks held their national meeting
in Dallas this year, Mr.. Clark was one
OF the delegates who attended from
the state of Florida and he was ac-
corde& the S100 cash prize for being
the one man who belonged to the or.
der who had scared highest towards
the clouds. He is six feet ten inches
high, weighs 248 pounds and is splen
dldly proportioned. He wears a No.
IA shoe and for that reason has to
have all of his shoes and socks made
to order. He is an active business
man, being member of the firm of
Martinez Cigar company, of Tampa,
in whose interest he was in the city.
Mr.. Clark was visited by several
local Elks yesterday and all during
the day was greeted with the old ia
miliar Hello, Bill" He left last night
for Jacksonville.

ABOUT MUZZLING DOGS.
They Must Have Room to Perspire
Through Their Mouths.

Through Their Mouths.
Now that all dogs in Brunswick
must be muZzled, a little advice as to
how the muzzles should be fitted will
be CT interest to owners and at the
Isame time will save, much suffering to
lthe CANNES.
DR.. George Coester, the well-known
veterinary surgeon, when seen by a
News reporter yesterday, made the
following statement concerning the
.muzzling:
"a dog does not perspire through
its skin. Perspiration in a dog is
eliminated by way of his tongue. A
dog muzzled in such a manner that
it's tongue cannot hang at least partly
out of its mouth is forced to swallow
its perspiration; perspiration is Ma
iture's way to eliminate obnoxious sub
stances out of the body-a kind Of
sewerage. By drawing the dogs
mouth with a muzzle so that it does
not allow some free play Of the tongue
more harm is done than good and is
really cruelty to the dog"

A SERIOUS WRECK
ON SOUTHERN
YESTERDAY !
TRAIN NO. t3 FROM THIS CITY
JUMPS THE TRACK, BUT FoRTU-
NATELY NO ONE WAS BADLY
INJURED. -.

! Passenger train No 13 over the
Southern railway, which left Bruins
wick at $50 o'clock Tuesday night,
was wrecked at an early hour yester-
day morning at Danes . Ferry, Is
miles north of Macon, and, while no
enc was injured in the wreck, it was
quite serious one.
1t is understood that every car
jumped the track, but none of them
were overturned, which was fortunate
for the passengers. Engineer Gard
lner was at the throttle and he discov-
Iered the fact that the cars had jump
ed the track and he succeeded in put
ting on the brakes before any seri-
Gus damage was done. 1t is believed
that the derailment was caused by
the forward car next to the engine
splitting the rail.
The coaches were we'll crowded and
many of the passengers were badly
shaken, but none of them received
|serious injuries. A special train was
quickly sent to the scene from Macon
and all of the passengers were car
ried back to Macon, where they wait
ed until 8 o'clock, catching another
train for Atlanta. The tracks were
at once cleared and trains moved on
their regular schedules yesterday.
The train was in charge of Conduc-
tor Minehan. There was a number of
Brunswick passengers in the sleeper
and the day coach and their friends
will be glad to learn that they es-
capped without being injured.

POSSIBLE MOTIVE
ADVANCED BY
FATHER
WIFE'S FATHER GIVES A REASON
FOR THE MURDER AND DIS
CUSSED THE SENSATIONAL
CASE.

BOSTON, Aug. 19.-The possible
motive for the killing of William E.
Annis at the Bayside Yacht club by
captain Peter c. Hams, Jr., may be
round in the fact that Mrs. Hains had
hied a suit against her husband. In
her suit Mrs. Hams made sensational
charges against her husbands char
acter and at the same time demanded
in her petition that the case itself.
an action for divorce, be given a pub
lie hearing. 1t is believed by C.. H.
Libbey, father of Mrs. Hams, and his
daughter, that Captain Hams and his
brother, T. Jenkins Hams, concluded
that Annis was behind the bringing of
the accusations and that it was Annis
who suggested to Mrs. Hams that
the only way she could clear herself
of the charges preferred by Captain
Hains in his divorce action was by
demanding that the case be tried in
the open court. Libbey said his
daughter had been subjected to the
greatest cruelty by Captain Hams.

from the farmhouse where Mrs. Min.

the disappearance of Ward since the

City Force Lost It's Only Member
Yesterday.

For the first time in months, the
city gang came up shy last night. For
several days there had been but one
member-a man working out his
street tax. This morning City Engi-
neer High will find himself entirely
without street gang.
The steady dwindling of the city's
year has been marked. For several
months the gang has been at times
so small that the pay of guard was
of more expense than the value of
the labor performed would warrant.
From now on it will be matter Of the
county gang or else free labor if the

state, all of the lines entering Bruins

lines entering Brunswick have their
locomotives equipped with electric

or two on the Coast Line, all have
branch lines that must meet the re-

NEW 24-|NCH DRAIN
IS FINALLY
FINISHED.
THE LARGE DRAIN CONNECTS
WITH THE ONE LAID ON HOWE
STREET TWO OR THREE YEARS
AGO.

Probably one of the most important
| N eces cf public work completed in
soma time was finished last night
when n, e new 24-inch drain pipe laid
along Howe street from Wolf to I'm
ion was COM, eeted with the 24-inch
drain eoup,eteA two years ago run
ming from Union street to the water
front. thus giving a raA Alu ana ulrec'
outlet for all surface wate. Ialllng IN
the low area" of whica the " OH ana
Howe streets corner is the cenl> l.
City Engineer High, who has left no
stone unturned to secure this improve
ment, was naturally much pleased last
might when this important link in the
city's permanent program was COM
pleted.
Much good is expected from the
new drain in the way of protection for
the low area" commencing at Howe
and Union streets and extending to
Cochran avenue. For years this area
and, in fact, all that section from
Gloucester and Cochran avenue to-
Howe and Union, as well as the ter
ritory on the south have been drained
by the old Penniman drain which ran
along Howe street to Union, thence
to the Baptist church and then along
Mansfield street to the riverfront The
two elbows in the drain caused this
outlet for the surface water to choke
readily as we'll as to fail to carry off
the surplus rainfall.
The new main will deliver the rain
fall by the shortest possible route into
the river and this it is believed will
prevent such overflows as were exper-
fenced in 1905 and 1906 on Union
street between Mansfield and Howe
streets. Having no elbows, tlh new
main with the fall now given will
not only rapidly drain the area be-
longing to it, but VIII care for any
surplus drainage.
Last week the city completed an
other important link in the chain of
permanent drains. An 1S-inch pipe
was laid along Monk street from Wolf
street to the east This pipe will
carry off all the surplus rainfall in
the low area" along Monk to Glou.
cester and Ellis to Cochran avenue.
Had the job been let by bids it would
have cost, according to estimates,
about $1,SoQ, AS it was the city Sc
cured the new drain for less than
$3.50
Other items on. Engineer Highs pro-
gram are drains along Gloucester from
Newcastle to the waterfront taking
lall the rainfall from the area around
the, OgletRorpe hotel At present this
surface water rushes along Newcastle
from F street to Mansfield. Another
drain along Monk street from Union
TO the waterfront is another improve
ment soon to be made

TAFT TO PLAY FOR
INDEPENDENT DEMOCRATS

HOT SPRINGS, Va, Aug. 19.--The
speech Taft will deliver here Friday
to the republicans of Virginia, will
involve, according to statement of
Mr.. Vorys, general discussion with
reference to the part taken by the re
publican party and the part taken by
the democratic party in meeting the
abuses of the trusts and monopolies,
with reference to the duty of the
southern republicans to make every
effort to increase the republican vote
in the south by accession from the
ranks of the independent democrats.
