BAN ON MADE WINE
OLD MAN IN SUMTER COUNTY
JAIL FOR SELLING A LITTLE
BLACKBERRY JUICE.

! AMERICUS.-An old man, a farm
er, was sent to Jail here in Sum-
ter county the other day for selling
little blackberry wine which he had
made from berries gathered on his
place. The incident has created no
small amount of comment over the
state, in view of known violations of
the prohibition law through the open
sale of beer and whisky in several
Georgia cities.
1t is true ne committed a violation
OF the prohibition law, which goes TO
the extent of making it criminal for
the farmer or the farmers housewife
TO manufacture domestic wine from
berries or grapes grown at her own
back door. The seeming Injustice in
TINS becomes apparent when it is re-
called that before the advent of the
prohibition law Georgia legally en-
courged and recognized the manu-
facture and sale of domestic wines by
renewing this product from all taxa
tlon. 1T was frequently the case that
farmers brought in bottles of home
made blackberry or scuppernong
VINE, and peddled it upon the streets
OF the cities under protection of the
law. 1t was often good wine, too.
But the prohibition law has put it
under the ban, and in those counties
where the prohibition law is more
highly thought of than it is perhaps
IN some of the larger cities the farm
er may find himself in jail for SELL
ing a quart of scuppernong wine,
although in the latter cases the old
time barkeeper may, without much
molestation, pass across the bar a
bottle OF well seasoned beer, or now
and then even mixed drink.
1t is said that the opponents of the
prohibition law insisted on the pro-
vision barring domestic wines, be-
cause they thought it would tend
more speedily to bring the law into
disfavor. In the meantime it is like
ly also to be productive of occa-
sional injustice.

ALIENS QUIT UNITED STATES.
The Net Loss to This Country in One

For the year ended Oct 31st last
the number of aliens arriving in this
country was 655,263, while the de-
parting aliens in the same period
numbered 7O1, 839, a net loss to the
country of 46,576, according to a
statement made by Secretary Straus
upon leaving the cabinet meeting a
few days ago. Another interesting
fact to Secretary Straus, who spoke
to the president regarding it, was
that in the month of October, 1908,
the immigration to this country was
larger from Great Britain than from
any other country of the world
amounting to 1894. From British

around her neck she wears a section
Of barbed wire covered with lace.
She wears on her head a blond hay

The vagaries of the law, its practice
and administration we're illustrated
here this week in case which so
far as can be learned is unique in the
history OF the local bar. One man. a
local lawyer named Stevens, appear
ed before a jury in the triple capac-
ity Of plaintiff, attorney for the plain
tiff and chief witness The spectacle
Of a plaintiff or defendant acting as
his own attorney is of course moth
ing uncommon, but to hear Mr.. Ste
vens as council in behalf of himself
as plaintiff, putting questions to him
self as a witness and then answering
himself, was something entirely new.
He even put questions in his capac-
ity as attorney to himself as witness
which he couldn't answer in any ca
pacity, and then asked himself as to
whether he could refresh his mind by
reference to documents and told him
self that he could. When it came to
a question as to when witness Ste
vens had seen certain man, the fol-
lowing conversation ensued on the
part Of the lawyer in his various
identities:
"On what day did you see him?"
Il don't recall the exact date"
Have you any memorandum that
will refresh your memory"
"I have"
"Will you please produce it?" in
quired Lawyer Stevens.
Il will" promptly replied Witness
Stevens, as he took from his pocket
certain appers.
tAre those the memoranda" asked
the lawyer. He then answered yes"
with those notes before you, can
you refresh your memory as to the
date"
Il can"
And 50 the examination proceeded
for some time, The three in one com
bination seemed to be highly pleased
with the results Of its triple capacity

Tiukering with the teeth OF a full
grown alligator would seem to be
about the last thing that sane man
would attempt. Nevertheless that was
lust what was done at he Zoo his
week when several denial surgeons
rot busy with the teeth Of Bosco, a
twelve.ioot long and exceedingly
savage alligator, The reason for
treating Bosco was not because he
had too,hache but because OF his
murderous tendencies, Within the
last two weeks he has killed five other
allisators by sinking his teeth into
their brains through the soft spot
which exists in the skulls OF these
animals, Accordingly it was decided,
not TO draw. but TO trim Boseo's
teeth with which he had been SO
busily repaying the grudge he has
held against his whole tribe ever since
Nose, a companion, bit off one OF his
legs some time ago, The FIRST attempts
to corral Bosco were highly exciting
and resulted in his knocking three
keepers into his pool with blow OF
his tail. He was finally lassoed, how
ever, and dragged struggling into the
dentists chair, which in this case was
an iron barred cage. After he had
been tickled with l2-foot erowbar
he opened his mouth so wide that a
piece OF timber could be slipped in.
Then he was bound securely on
gang plank with ropes two and one
half inches thick. Taking bach. saws
the men began TO saw off his teeth.
Twenty-four saw blades we're broken
before the job was finished, but Bos-
60 finally went back to the pool un-
able to continue his career OF muir
der, For those persons who have had
with dentists and who
may have pity for poor Bosco, the
Curator Of the Zoo says that there |
ire no nerves in an alligator's teeth |
