POLICE ASKED
TO INTERVENE
EXCITED HUSBAND AT FERRY
PASS REPORTED THAT WIFE
HAD BEEN TAKEN AWAY BY
WHITE MAN INTO ALABAMA.

Telephoning to the police station at
$3.50 o'clock last night, a party, who
said that he was the husband of a Wo-
man who was ON the incoming train,
and that he was at Ferry Pass, asked
that the officers take from the train a
white man who had carried his wife
off, and who was taking the woman,
the speaker stated, against her will,
into Alabama. The man was referred
to the sheriff's office. The woman
was not stopped, because there had
been no specific affidavit made. The
sheriff, however, made a hurried in
vestigation and was ready to act had
there been anything tangible upon
which he could have made a case.
The truth of the matter, which was
discovered after some investigation,
was that some doctor from Manistee,
Ala, was at Ferry Pass, and had hired
the woman. who had promised to go to
Manistee to work for him. A ticket
was furnished her and she was seen
on the train last night when it ar
rived. She was in the colored car and
the doctor was in the white coach, i'm
mediately to the rear.
The sheriff was of the opinion that
it was too, risky piece of work to
take a white man and cOIored woman
| from the cars with nothing Nelse
against them but a telephone com
plant by a party who claimed to be
| the woman's husband. He said that
! he was not going to act on any such
! information.

DISORDERLY
"BEACH" BOYS

Loud screams shortly after o'clock
last night at the foot of Barcelona
street caused many who heard the
noise to believe that some person or
persons were being badly used up, and
policemen in the vicinity tried to get
a line on the disturbers. 1t was dis
covered after an investigation that a
bunch of boys, some of whom are
known, who gather on the wharf at
night, bethought themselves to make
a noise last night and did so. While
evidently intending to frlghten people
in the neighborhood alone, the piercing
screams were heard as far away as
PalafoX street and the officers hurried
ly investigated. The approach of a
bluecoat was the signal for separa-
ton, and the crowd quickly dispersed.
Some of the boys are: known to the
officers, and unless they cease such
tactics, they will be assisting the
stock catchers shortly.

STRICKEN IN
SUNDAY SCHOOL
A. w. RANNEY, OF ALGER-SULLI-
VAN LUMBER CO., HAD SEVERE
ATTACK, BUT WAS REPORTED
MUCH IMPROVED YESTERDAY.

A. W. Ranney, prominent official
of the Alger-Sullivan Lumber Co, of
Century, suffered severe attack of
apopleXy in the Sunday school room
of the Episcopal church there Sunday,
but friends in the city yesterday re-
ceived the cheerful news that his con-
dition was greatly improved and he
had regaiued consciousness.
Mr.. Ranney was reading to his Sun
day school class and the sudden at
tack caused him to ask one of the
pupils to read. She took the book
and began reading when Mr.. Ran

THE HERPES COME OUT
Frequently Shows Itself in the Same
Place Every Winter.

The herpes very frequently shows
itself only in the winter time and
in identically the same spot every
year. When it comes out, a little
poslam should be at once applied,
and this annoying skin affection will
quickly vanish. Poslam is the new
skin remedy which has cured thous-
ands of the worst cases OF eczema
and eradicated facial and other dis
agreements of years standing. The
terrible itching attending eczema is
stopped with the first application, Civ
ing proof of its curative properties
at the very outset.
In less serious skin affections,
such as pimples, rash, herpes. black
heads. acne, BARRIERS itch, etc. re-
suits show after an overnight appli-
cation, only small quantity being re-
quired to effect a cure. Those who
use poslam for these minor skin
troubles should Immediately secure
one of the special 50-cent packages
recently adopted to meet such needs.
Both the 50-cent package and the
regular 81 jar may be obtained at
The Crystal Pharmacy and other
leading drug stores.
Samples for experimental purposes
may be had free Of charge by writ
ing direct to the Emergency Labora-
tories, 80 West Twenty-fifth Street

A DEFECTIVE
SEWER FOUND
ON REUS ST.
MANHoLE AND SEWER SAID TO
BE IN A FEARFUL CONDITION.
WORKMEN COMMENCED YES
TERDAY ENDEAVORING TO
CLEAN THE SEWER, WHICH
WAS FOUND PACKED WITH
SAND.

Another defective sewer has been
discovered, this time on Reus street,
between Chase and Garden streets, but
the extent of the defects are not
known, as workmen are endeayor7nS
to only clear the sewer and make 1t
perform it's functions and are not de-
voting any time to an attempt at dis
covering the causes that led to the
sewers present condition.
Alderman F. G. Renshaw, who visit
ed the place yesterday, stated to a
Journal representative last night that
the sewer is in a fearful condition,
being packed with sand, while the
manhole is in a similar condition,
being filled with sewerage and sand
from which the stencil is very bad.
Saturday the men who clean the
sewers discovered the sewer filled
with sand and they attempted to bore
it out, but without success. Yester-
day another force of men went out,
including Mr.. Rommel and Jackson
Brandon, and worked on the sewer
during the day. The accumulation OF
sewerage made the work disagreeable,
as the sewer had evidently been
stopped UP for some time.
How the sand accumulated in the
sewer to the extent that it has was
not investigated, but it is probable
that the matter will be later looked
into, as it will be brought to the coun
ellis attention by pr. Renshav.
