Linen Shower.

The Central Methodist Parsonage
on w. Palm St. was the scene Of a
most enjoyable event last evening.
Rev. Guyton Fisher the popular
pastor of that church and his lovely
family were treated to a linen show
er by the good ladies of his congre-
cation.
1t was the sixteenth anniversary
of the married life of Rev. and Mrs.
Fisher.
Quite a number of ladies and
several of the male members of the
church assembled at the home of
Mrs. R. A. Wilson, each with pack
age of linen selected for the Occas-
sion and from there they swooped
odwn upon the parsonage a block
away at 7:30.
The surprise was complete, and
the preacher and his family were
overwhelmed with the thoughtful
kindness of their friends and neigh
bors.
After the presents had been open
ed Rev. Fisher appropriately thanked
the good people who had come to
remind him so pleasantly Of the
anniversary after which fruits pro-
vided by the Ladies Aid Society
were served, and thus a pleasant
hour was passed, and the company
departed with the feeling that the
evening had been well spent

Opium Sandwich Is
Latest Thing In Chicago.

Chicago, Oct. 22--The opium
sandwich" is the latest wrinkle in
restaurant novelties. The price is
81 if you know where to make a
tender of the same.
The novel scheme for the distri-
button of the drug was unearthed
yesterday when Ching Sing, prop
rietor of a chop suey restaurant on
West Randolph street was arrested.
If Ching Sing had not developed
such a lively sandwich trade in the
last month his business probably
would have never been discovered
The mysterious actions of some OF
his customers, however, attracted
the attention of the police. On Thurs
day customer was seen to enter
the place by the watching officers.
Give me a liverwurst sandwich
the customer told a waiter.
AS soon as the "liverwurst.. sand
witch had been produced the officers
took charge Of it.
The sandwich consisted of a sew
eral days old bun, with the center
followed out. Reposing in its in.
terror was a small package contain
ing opium. A raid was made on the
place by a deputy United States
marshal and police officials but the
cache where the opium was KEPT
was not found.
Ching Sing was arrested on
charge of selling opium.

Baptist Conference

The deacons, members and friends
of the Baptist congregation will
meet in conference at the Baptist
church Wednesday night 7:30 o'clock.
The conference will consider the
question of the erection of new
church building.

lage, and the work was largely an
uphill pull.
The remains of Col. Griner from
Fitzgerald were accompanied by the
immediate members of his family
and an escort from the Fitzgerald
bar and Rev. M. A. Morgan of Cor
dele, a strong personal friend. The
remains were met at the depot by
members of the Dublin bar and other
citizens of Dublin.
A number of years ago Col. Griner
requested that if he died first, Mrs.
George c. Thompson should sing
Beautiful Reckoning Hands" at his
funeral 1t is a coincidence that al
though both had moved from Dub
lin, Mrs. Thompson was visiting here
at the time of the funeral and when
she came to Dublin brought the
words and music of the song that
Col. Griner loved so well.
This morning at 10 o'clock the
funeral services over the remains
of Col. Griner were conducted by
Rev. George c. Thompson of Atlanta,
assisted by Rev. M. A. Morgan of
Cordele, Rev. John NJ. Cutler, Rev.
L. j. Ballard and others of this city.
Col. Griner had many friends in
this section who regret very much
to learn of his death and tender to
the members Of his family their
earnest and sincere sympathy.

Federal Courts Invoked
to Stop Sale Of Liquor
Grand Jury Failed to Indict Liz
uOr Men

Memphis, Tenn, October o..
Aid of the federal courts was sue
cessfully invoked today by the Law
and Order League to enforce the
prohibition law which the city,
county and state authorities have
not enforced in Memphis. United
States Judge Mccall granted a tenn
porary order against ia saloons,
pending hearing on next Thursday
restraining them from serving in
toxicating liquor.
The federal court took Jurisdiction
on the allegations of the petitioners
that were deprived of the equal
protection under the law guaranteed
by the fourteenth amendment to
the constitution. They allege that
the state prohibition law is being
enforced in other parts of the state,
but the governor, attorney general
and county attorney general, with
other officials, have refused to en-
force the law here, and therefore,
the United States court can take
Jurisdiction.
On the grounds that irreparable
injury might be done the complain
ants if delay were permitted, Judge
Mccall granted the temporary in
junction.
NOTICES SERVED BY DEPUTIES
United States deputy marshals
began serving notice on the defen-
dants to close at $3.50 O'Clock, a
number of extra deputies being
sworn in for the purpose.
The order was effective at 8 O'Clock
tonight
The action, which was total sur
prise to the saloons and the local
optionists, was the elimination of a
long and bitter fight to enforce pro-
hibition in Memphis, the largest city
in which it has ever been tried.
The statewide was passed in the
spring of 1909, and was supposed to
90 into effect on July of that year.
1t was partially enforced for time
in Knoxville and Chattanooga, and
an effort was made for few months
in Knoxville, but in Memphis, situa-
ted on the river and practically the
metropolis of three states-Tennes-
see, Arkansas and Mississippi-there
has never been any more serious
effort to enforce prohibition than
the presentation of evidence to the
grand jury
STATE AND COUNTY OFFICIALS PoWERLEsS.
That body regularly failed to in
dict, and the city and county offici-
ais have acknowledged the impoSsi-
bility of closing the saloons. Todays
action followed at the request OF
fifteen members of the Law and
Order League.
The league has been making a
campaign for law enforcement, and
the present campaign, which is now
on, has prohibition again as.its prin-
cipal issue. The state-WiderS endor-
sed the republican candidate for
governor on a statewide law en-
forcement platform, and forced the
withdrawal of Governor M. r. Patti
erson, who was making the race for
a third term on the democratic tick
ct. The fight, however, is almost as
bitter against Senator Robert E.
Taylor, who is running in his stead
although the democratic platform
does not take stand on the liquor
question.
