Columbus, Ga, May 3.-The Gecr-
gla and Alabama Industrial Index
says in it's regular weekly issue:
"Qaite an interesting feature of
construction in Georgia, is the fact
! that bank and office buildings of really
pretention character are 10 longer

good many of the smaller cities are
getting in the skyscraper class. An.
noIncement is made that a six-story

splendid achievement for the Brooks

COMET CAN BE SEEN NOW
Early Morning Risers May See Rare
Sight in the East,

Have you seen the comet yet? It
can be seen with the naked eye, al
though those possessing a pair of field
glasses, telescope or even powerful
opera glasses can get mach bet
ter view of the wonderful visitor.
The comet can be seen between 3
and four o'clock in the morning about
half hour before daylight, just to the
north and a little to the west Of We
nus, which is the brightest star in the
sky at that hour. The comet is not
bright as yet and can barely be seen,
but after looking intently at it for a
moment, the tail can be plainly seen
and is very beautiful.

CHAIRMAN OF HOTEL COMMIT
TEE WANT TO KNOW
AT ONCE.
EIGHT HUNDRED HAVE
ASKED FOR ACCOMMODATIONS
1t Is Probable That the Number of
Visitors Will Be More Than Double
The Number-The Committee to be
Notified

Elsewhere in this issue is an ad-
Vertisement of NJ A. Hodges, chair
man of the hotel committee of the
Pythian convention to be held here
May IS to 20, asking these who can ac-
commodate the visitors and the num-
ber, to advise him at once.
Not only is this notice directed to
boarding house keepers but private
families as well and as the number
will be great, Brunswickians should
strain every point in caring for them
1t is best to notify Mr.. Hodges at once
rather than delay the matter, as it is
vey important that each and every
knight must be well cared for
Pythians in all parts Of the state
ale iuonlng forward to the convention
with a great deal Of delight and it is
safe to assume that it will be one OF
the largest gatherings ever held by
this popular order in the state OF
Georgia.

WONT ALLOW THE ELLEN TO
USE THEIR WHARF OR TAKE
UP TICKETS.
ARRANGEMENTS OF ANY KIND
WILL MAKE NO TRAFFIC
Just What the Owners of the New
Line Will Do in the Matter Could
Not Be Learned, But Some Steps
Will Be Taken.

the troubles of the new passenger
steamer Ellen, built for the st. Simon
run, started sometime ago when the
wharf injunction case was heard and
now there is more troIble.
The owners took up the matter Of
wharf privileges with the Southern
Ry, and they fatty refuse to allow
the steamer to land or depart from
their property, Then the Ellen own
ers endeavored to make an arrange
ment by which they could carry
through passengers on Southern tick
cts from Brunswick to st. Simon, but
tae railroad refuses the proposition
and promptly notified the Ellen peo-
pie that they would honor none OF
their tickets. This means that the
passengers reaching Brunswick must
pay their fare to and from the island
If they go on the Ellen.
In the matter of a wharf, as stated
in The News of yesterday, it is more
than probable that the property at
the foot of Gloucester street will be
leased. 1t belongs TO the Atlantic Coast
Line and it is said that some arrange
mGnt can be made.
Just what the new boat line will
do about the ticket matter is not
known at this time

that all the troops in Georgia except
the Coast Artillery corps will be al
lowed to go into camp at ChicamaTga.
The minimum of service required ny
the government has been reduced
from six months to three, so that any
soldier enlisted within three months
of July II, when the encampment be-
gins, may 90. The encampment be-
gins on the date named and lasts ten
days.
While the government has made
this concession in order to secure the

ously understood that there is to he
no play. but work from start to finish,

COMPANY is AT
WORK ON PAVING
FORCE OF MEN is BUSILY EN-
GAoED IN CORRECTING THE
MISTAKES.

The Georgia Engineering Company
ahve quite a force of hands busily en-
gagged in correcting the mistakes made
by the company on the paving con-
tract for the work on Newcastle, be-
tween Mansfield and Gloucester.
From present indications, it will be
several weeks before this work will
be completed as the engineering COM
pany is using every precaution to
make the work satisfactory to the city
council.
AS soon as the work is accepted by
the city engineer the contract price
will be promptly paid and here will
end what once promised to be a long
drawn out law salt.
The engineering company left a
great deal Cf the curbing, especially
on the west side of Newcastle street
in a very bad condition, and this will
also be remedied.

IT SHOULD BE A MATTER OF
CIVIC PRIDE TO EVERY
INDIVIDUAL
ASSIST THE ENUMERAToRS IN
9"ERY POSSIBLE WAY you CAN
"a
Let Every Citizen Appoint Himself
Committee cf One To See That
Every eligible Person is Enrolled
On Lists.

Getting a perfect count of the citi-
zens OF any city is hard proposition,
and while the enumerators who have
heen canVassing the city since the
l5th OF April have been careful in
their work, it may be possible that
some citizens and residents of this
place have been overlooked. Ac-
knoWledging that such a thing as
missing few of the people in the
city is possible, Supervisor Perham
states that the counting of Brunswick
people will be more accurate in this
census than ever before. With only
two weeks in which TO get the coant,
! the work is necessarily hard on the
enumeratOrs, and many of them spent
! two CT three days in getting acquaint-
ed with the duties OF their position,
thus delaying their best efforts until
the latter part of the canvass.
This is not the only place in the
country where it has been necessary
to extend the limit for making the
count and from all big cities come the
reports of delay i'll completing the
enumeration. Neither is this city the
only city where claims have been
made that the count is not perfect.
Hundreds of citizens have registered
I their kicks.
There is no question that the mat
! ter Cf having proper census Of
/ Brunswick is occupying the minds of
many of the business men of Bruins
wick and if one could see the number
cf letters sent to Supervisor Perham
in an effort to assist his work, il would
be convincing proof that this city will
not fare SO badly as is supposed by
few people. The hardest part Of the
census work has been that of making
proper count of people residing at
boarding houses and hotels. In many
instances blanks have been left for
them to fill out, and after these were
neglected, the delinquent ones have
made a great howl about not being
counted.
1t cannot be too fOrcibly impressed
on the minds of all people, that to OBJ
tain a perfect count the cooperation
of every man and woman is necessary
! If each one who has not been counted
will send in their names and address
to the supervisor, closing it in an en-
velope marked "SIpervisor of the
census, Waycross, Official Business
it will be carried free of postage, so
with nothing necessary more than
writing a letter CT using an ordinary
postal card. no one can find an eX-
cusp for not sending in their name if
they nave not been counted. The time
of taking the census in the city has
been extended until the 5th, TO give
every one chane to get in the lists
and also to allow of enumerators
making sure of their districts being
covered carefully.
Only two days more are left in
which to get your name o" the list.
Attend to this at once.

New York. Sept. ia confidential
clerk Of the defunct brokerage firm OF

a favorite with stock dabblers in leg
islatures, now either dead or out OF

committee today some of the things

what he was expected not to know.
Here are some of the things that hap
pened under the eyes of Alexander 5.

which he testified today, but had hith-
erto held confidential:
draft to his order for $4,000 from

1t was placed to his credit with FL

drew against it.
A check for 81 500 was shown by the
