SENTENCE OF c. Nj. ORR STANDS.
Court of Appeals Refuses the Former
Banker a New Trial.

Court of Appeals Refuses the Former
Banker a New Trial.
The state Court of Appeals has
affirmed the verdict of Bibb superior
court in the case of c. NJ Orr, form
erly cashier of the Exchange Bank
of Macon, who was convicted of en-
bezzlement and sentenced to serve
seven years in the penitentiary
While certain errors appeared in the
case the court said there were none
of sufficient consequence to justify
reversal; and that although it might
have been the intention of the de-
fendant to restore the money at the
time he took it, it was none the less
enlightenment.
There is much" says the court,
lin the record to palliate the defend
ants offense; still under the law as
it is written he is clearly guilty"
Mr.. Orr was reared in Dawson, go
ing from here to the Exchange Bank
in Macon, and many here regret that
his case has terminated so unfort-
nate for him.

FAKE NAMES CAN'T GET BOOZE
Local Railroad Agents Receive No
tice That Under New Law DeIiv-
cry Must BE To Conscience

cry nuSJ DC 10 OOuSl&neN.
Within the past few days the
agents at the local freight depots
have received notice from the gen.
eral management of their companies
that under a new law passed during
the recent session of congress it is
a penal Offense to deliver whiskey
to initials, numbers or fictitious
names.
The enforcement of this law will
mean that J. Iscariot, Sam Trout,
Jack Frost and others who have been
getting their booze under nom de
plumes will have to come forth and
acknowledge the corn" under their
real cognomens or else go thirsty
with cobwebs and dust distressing
their threats.
1t is not generally known that the
government has enacted a law to stop
the deliverance of whiskey billed to
fictitious cOnsignees in interstate
shipments. Such is the case, how
ever
The law provides for the punish
ment of the shipper who violates any
of its provisions and the railroad
which delivers such consignments.
When cOnsignments arrive, billed
for initiated persons or the like, the
shipment is held up and the con-
signor notified.
The law not only applies to rail-
roads, but to express companies. The
local Office of the latter have been
complying with all provisions of the
law for sometime.

A Good Definition.

In one Of the New York schools sew
eral of the children in one class failed
on the definition of the word bachelor.
The teacher, to impress the meaning
Of the word on the minds Of the pu-
pills, told the class TO look up the word
that night and come prepared with a
good definition the next day.
When the question was taken up at
the next session the first little girl
who was asked to define the word an
swered with a confident and smiling
air, "A bachelor Is very happy
man"
The teacher grew interested. Are
you sure that is correct?" she asked
the little one.
"Oh, yes" was the prompt reply.
Father told me So"

DR.. John s. BUST, the southern sur

lures at a state college:
'It Is always in rather bad taste for
a physician to boast Of being busy.
Physicians, undertakers and gravedig-
gers only cause discomfort when they
allude to good times and prosperity.
There was an old man applied to the
minister Of the little village Of Paint
Rock for the post of gravedigger. His
references were good, and the minister
agreed to assign him to the church
yard. He was to be paid so much a
grave. The gravedigger haggled over
the price, finally accepting it.
"'But will get steady work? he
demanded
Steady work. said the minister.
