ALBANY JAIL CROWDED.
Fine Record For South Georgia City
Under Prohibition.

An Albany special says: Whether
prohibition has anything to do with
the matter is a question more easily
asked than answered, but the fact
remains that there are more prison
ers in Dougherty county Jail now
than have been confined there since
the prohibition law became effective.
Thirty persons, all of whom are me-
groes, and four of whom are women.
are held, most of them for the Octo-
Der term of Dougherty superior
court, which convenes two weeks
from next Monday.
Perhaps IN no county of the state
has the prohibition law brought a
more marked decrease in crime of
every character than in Dougherty.
Police court fines in Albany have
fallen off from nearly $4,000 a year
to less than $4,000, while the i'm
provement in the county courts has
been almost as marked. The pres
ent condition in the Jail is being
pointed to as evidence that the good
effects of prohibition we're only tenn
porary, but prohibitionists declare
that this assumption is not justified.

TO MAKE WAR ON NIGH BEER
Another Effort to BE Made to En-
force the Drastic Liquor Laws
of Oklahoma.

VA OhAG1AlOlnds
GUTHRIE, Okla.-Red ink and
lemon extract bid fair to regain their
old-time popularity for beverage pur-
poses in Oklahoma The state en-
forcement officials have decided to
make war on all of the near beers.
Attorney Fred S. Caldwell has
taken the position that all of the
near beers are contraband goods,
under the provision of the consti-
tuition, which forbids the sale of
malt liquors cor any imitation
thereof or substitute therefor" In
consequence, orders have gone forth
from the state dispensary to confis-
cate all of the beer substitutes found
in any raids and arrest the sellers.
AS a result of these considerations,
Dispensary Superintendent Stone has
accumulated a remarkable collection
of drinkables, many of which could
be listed under no classification
known to liquor dealers.
Under the laws of Kansas and
most of the other prohibition states
two per cent. of alcohol is consd-
cred the limit which constitutes an
Intoxicating liquor, and two per
cent" drinks cannot, therefore, be
touched by the law. But Oklahoma
! goes much further and prohibits the
sale of any beverage containing more
! than one-half of one per cent. of
alcohol, in addition to the prohibi-
ton of limitations and substitutes.
! In order to pass muster in Oklahoma
therefore, a beverage cannot even
retain more than suggestion of the
taste of the real thing.

Bottomless lakes are, of course, a

One of the lakes was found to be
500 feet deep; but that single exper-
iment is not absolutely reliable, be-
cause the plummet may have stopped

INCREASED FERTILIZER SALES
Georgia Used Forty-One Thousand
More Tons This Year.


More Tons This Year.
A big increase in sales of fertili-
zers for the season 19O8-'09 is
shown by the official bulletin just
issued by the state department of
agriculture
Total sales for this season were
884,295 tons, an increase of 41,520
tons over those for the preceding
season. These figures are based
upon the number of inspection tags
sold by the department. The in
crease has grown gradually from
year to year since 1874, when the
total sales were only 48,648 tons.
The number of brands on the mar
ket and registered with the depart
ment of agriculture in accordance
with the requirement of law has
also increased in like proportion.
In 1874 there were only 10 brands,
as against a total of 21,274 for the
season of 1908-'09.

ploye Who Can't peach"
Charles e. Stegall, a government
storekeeper and gauger, is in jail at
Trenton, Dade county, because, it is
stated, he has refused to testify be-
fore the grand jury in the state SUI
perior court relative to an alleged
registered distillery that is being OPP
Grated near Rising Fawn in that
county.
The state authorities are trying to
secure information upon which to
convict the owners of the distillery
of violation of the state prohibition
law, and Stegall has refused to di-
Vulge because of a national law
which imposes a severe penalty upon
government employees for giving
away such information. Consequent
ly he is Eliminating in Jail.
In the meantime he has wired Col
lector H. A. Rucker of his predica-
ment, and the collector has taken
the matter up with District Attorney
Carter Tate. 1t remains to be seen
whether Stegall will be instructed to
go ahead and tell all he knows about
the alleged distillery or effort will
be made to secure his release
through habeas corpus in the United
States court.

DEPARTMENTAL LEAGUE.
How the Clubs Stand.
Commissioners Win Out.


The effective twirling of Treadway for
the Commissioners when men were on
bases was the cause of the downfall of
the Post Office team yesterday afternoon
in the Departmental League, the final
score being 8 to 8.
Although the Post Office boys out
batted their opponents, the hits came too
late and were also not punched. Fergu-
son stared to do the box work for the
letter carriers, but was forced to retire
after one andtwo-thirds innings He was
touched up for two hits, passed three bat
ters, made a balk and uncorked a wild
pitch, which gave the winners their lead
of five runs. johnny Haring then took
up the fiinging and was ''all to the mus
tard." as the District boys only secured
four more hits for the rest of the game.
Treadway was hit for ten safe drives,
two of which were for three sacks, but
the one made by Callahan was only
counted single, as he failed to touch
second base and was thrown out.
Orrison was the king PIN of the day,
connecting safely every time he came up,
having percentage of 1,OO0 on his five
trips. One of his drives was for three
sacks. Kraft, Handiboe and Sabins each
got two hits. The fielding of both teams
was off color. Several of the runs made
by the Post Office boys should have been
easy outs but twice McNulty in the CEN
ter garden, for the winners, dropped the
ball. On several occasions the losers
went completely up In the air and the
District boys walked in with runs
The War team did not appear to play
the Interior boys as scheduled and the
game was declared a forfeit in favor of
the latter outfit.
