THE ANTI-SALO0N
LEAGUE TO MEET
CONVENTION TO BE HELD IN AT.
LANTA BEGINNING LATTER
PART OF MARCH.
The Funeral Will Occur This After
noon at O'clock from St. Marks
Episcopal Church-Death a Shock
to Her Scores cf Friends.

Atlanta, Feb. 25.-Preparations are
being made by the Georgia Anti Sa-
loon League convention of the Sc1th-
ern states, which will be held in At
lanta March 81 to April 4th. inclusive.
Besides the regular superintendents
and field workers from all the southern
states, and DR.. P. A. Baker and DR.. G.
w. Young, national superintendents,
there will be several prominent state
officials, state and national legislators
and law enforcement attorneys upon
the program. The superintendent Of
the Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee,
Kentucky and Virginia League consti-
tute the committee on programs and
general arrangements. The full pro-
gram will be announced within the
next week or ten days.
The Atlanta convention is the result
of action taken at the national Anti
Saloon League convention in Chicago
last December. At that convention the
determination was reached to hold a
convention in the southern states ear
ly in the present year in order to bring
the state SuCerintendents, field work
ers and other public men together The
purpose of the convention will be for
the purpose of discussing the best
means of securing law enforcement in
prohibition territory and to unite all
efforts of the league in seeking ma
tional legislation which, it is claimed,
is needed for aid in the further enact
ment and enforcement of prohibition
measures.
Sreakingof the coming convention,
j. B. Richards, superintendent of the
Georgia Anti-Saloon League, and the
chairman of the committee on arrange
ments, said:
HOur correspondence with the lead
ers in the states indicate an enthu-
iastic entering into the movement and
it is expected that it will be the great
est legislative and law enforcing con-
ference ever held in the south. We
hope for a large delegation from our
own state and will appreciate letters
from all who can come.
There is no dolbt of thoroughly
organized effort on the part of the
enemy to invade our southern prohi-
bition territory and seek to undo what
has been done. 1t is therefore very
necessary that the state should be so
thoroughly federated and agreed upon
methods of operation that we may be
able to Withstand the attacks in a
more practical and cooperative way"

CATsUP IS SEIZED
BIG SUPPLY TAKEN BY OFFICIALS
IN ATLANTA-PURE FOOD
LAW VIOLATED

Atlanta, Ca, Feb. 25.-Thanks to
the activity Of our state pure food an-
thorities, there was seized here to-
day by the federal authorities a car
load lot of tomato catsup, alleged
upon analysis by the government
chemists at Washington, to contain
filthy decomposed vegetable matter,
harmful bacteria, and to be utterly IN
fit for human consumption.
1t will be held by the federal au-
thorities here fer confiscation, pending
the prosecution of the manufacturers
for violation of the national pure food
and drugs law.
Some days ago, d sample of the cat
sup was taken by State Pure Food In
spector Methvin and turned over to
State Chemist Stallings for analysis.
Mr.. Stallings found the article to con-
tain putrid vegetable matter and to
ibe unfit for ;Ise. He reported his find
ing to the local federal pure food in
spector, J. l.. Lynch who took the
matter up with the federal authort-
ties at Washington, sending them a
sample for examination. Upon their
report followed the action taken by
the government authorities here to-
day.
Immediately upon the conclusior OF
his analysis, however, and before tai;
ing the matter up with the govern
ment, DIR. Stallings gave notice to the
consignee here that sale OF the goods
must be stopped.
The fact that he found the catsup
to have been preserved with benzoate
of soda DR.. Stallings thinks goes far
to sustain him in his contention and
that of DR.. H. w. Wiley, government
chemist, that the use of benzoate as
a preservative is harmful and should
be prohibited. There, was no LABEL
upon the bottle to indicate the rtSs-
ence of ben2oate, as the law requires.
and no report was made upon this
feature by the Washington authori-
ties.
Wnen seen Ioudy, III. o'"ilhho9 al
lowed several reporters to examine
sample of the condemned article.
While none of them was willing to
go so far as tasting, judging by the
appearance and smell, there was moth
ing to indicate that the sample elf
fered in any way from pure Whole
some catsup.

EXPERT EAsON
COMPLETES WORK
HE HAS MADE INVESTIGATION OF
THE LOCAL DRAINAGE
SITUATION.
While He Could Not Give Out Report
1t Isl Known That he Is Much Inn
pressed With His inspection.

F. G. Eason, the government drain
age expert, who has been in Bruins
wick and Glynn county for the past
two weeks making a thorough iEves
tigation into drainage in this county,
has completed his work and will leave
tomorrow morning to continue mis-
work in North Carolina.
Mr.. Eason has made thorough i'll
spection of the county and his report
to the agricultural department will
be very voluminous one. 1t will coy
er in every essential detail the exact
situation as to drainage in Glynn
county, and when it is received by the
department at Washington it will be
made public.
Mr.. Eason was in the city yester-
day and when questioned on the in
spection he had made he stated that
he could not devulge tae contents of
his report, as it would have to be
given out officially in Washington, but
he did not hesitate in stating that the
conditions in this county were most
it is believed that his report will be d
good one for the county. The engineer
said that he was pleased to state that
Glynn county could be drained at a
smaller cost and easier than any 9TH
er section which he had visited. The
natural conditions were more favor
able and there were many advantages
which this county has over others in
which an examination has been made.
With these remarks it is naturally
surmised that the report of the ex-
pert will be a good one.
Mr. Eason goes IRON Brunswick to
Beaufort county, North Carolina, in
tine midst of the Dismal swamp section,
where similar examination is to be
made.

AN AUTOMOBILE CLUB.

One Should Be Organized in Bruns-
wick Before Endurance Run.
There is some talk among many of
the local automobile owners looking
to the organization of an automobile
club and it is probable that such an
organization will be formed before the
big Savannah Brunswick j Jacksonville
endurance run in April.
An organization of this kind could
accomplish some good work in the
interest of good roads and Brunswick
appears to be of the few cities in
the south without such an organiza-
tion. There are sufficient number
lcf autoists in the city to form such a
club and there would be practically
no expense. 1t is hoped that the en-
, thuiasts in the city will decide to or
ganize at once.

"One of the principal reasons for a
