IN THE POLICE COURT.
Citizens Contribute Literally Toward
Paving City Streets.

There were several cases heard in
the Police Court Friday morning most
Of them being because of the fact
that there are still a great many cit
izens in town who would rather pay
for the privilege Of riding their bicy-
cles on the sidewalk than TO obey
the city ordinance prohibiting them
from doing so.
The liberal citizens to contribute
to the city fund were:
Charlie Griffin, riding bicycle on
sidewalk, 81.
John Rees, leaving horse unhitched,
SO.
Fred Davis, leaving horse unhitch-
ed, SO.
w. f. Reaves riding bicycle on for
hidden sidewalk 50.
Walter Riley riding bicycle on de-
pot yard, So.
]. G.. Norris. exceeding speed limit
on motorcycle, 50.
T. II. Siddall, riding bicycle on
forbidden sidewalk, 50.
G. c. Beck, riding bicycle on for
bidden siewalk, 81.
James Wilson, riding bicycle on
sidewalk and resisting arrest, 50, and
IS for respective offcnses.
Alex Newman, leaving horse un-
hitched, 81.
Marks Davis, reckless. riding on
sidewalk, 50 for being reckless and
50 for the privilege of riding on the
sidewalk.
Most Of the offenders were round
ed up by Policeman McKagen who
made turn about the city and ran
across considerable material whereby
the city ire asury was somewhat filed.

he is demanding trial.

further declared the Newberry eX-
chairman of the disponsary board.
Evans declared also that he did
not ask for any immunity from any
one. 1t was stated a few days ago
by Governor Blease that Evans had
not sought immunity from him, nor
had he promised any immunity for
the letter signed CT. B."
AS to the other letter, Evans said
We'll, if a mutual friend of ours
found it and carried it to Cole, it's all
right with me. l looked everywhere
for. the letter and could not find it,"
why didn't you give up these let

ed that Fielder was holding my trial
as lash l determined to give up
the letters.
Evans was standing in the outer
| office of the Governor when he made
these remarks to several listeners. He
| talked freely Of the dispensary stu
said in previous statements.
He reiterated especially his re-
marks, quoted a few days ago, that if
the dispensary houses were guilty Of
wrongdoing in State dispensary days
they are now guilty Of the same, as
the county dispensaries are still buy
ing from many Of the same houses.
"A persual of the published lists win
show this" added Evans.
Evans said: "The county disrcr
sarics are now buying the Same liquor
the state dispensary aid. paying the
same prices, and higher. You talk
about firm turning over $50 600 the
other day. Wei, then the county
dispensaries pay back 100000 for
that"
AT the time also Evans said:
Fielder did send for me to come
TO Atlanta. When we were in the
room together l said to him: open
that door, - you, and let the At
torney General hear everything l have
got to say" This was in reference
to a meeting Governor Blease refer
red to in asking for an investigation
in his message to the General AS
sembly.
Hub" Evans came in today from
Newberry and went direct to the
Governors Office, after running up to
local hotel hotel and putting his
suit case up. He was in jovial
mood.
In a few minutes John Bell TowiI
entered the office. Governor Blease
was engaged at the time and the visi-
! tors chatted in the outer Office.
1t so happened that Nose II. Mob.
: ley, now dispensary auditor, who was
chief bookkeeper in State dispensary
J days, was in the office at the time.
Evans wants to be tried, he said
He will not permit the case to b,
dropped. IF you were indicted fol
a crime wouldn't you like to be tried
so that, if innocent, you could be
vindicated?" said Evans to those
around him.

Gifts For Children.


The joy Of welcoming a new baby
into the family often finds expression
In deluging the newcomer with offer.
ings and tokens. No gift can be too
great and costly for baby.
Proud grandparents and doting aunts
and fond uncles and sympathetic
friends all wish to attest their inter-
est in some tangible way. and what
to give" baby continues to be a source
of anxiety throughout its career. 1t
seems almost a crime to think Of the
large amounts expended upon toys
whose usefulness are over in a day.
Why does not some one think Of the
future and give things that are really
worth while and which will give real
pleasure later on? Think Of the Joy
Of possessing a good library when one
is old enough to fully appreciate it!
Some girls possess strings Of well
matched pearls whose beginnings were
formed when they were tiny tots and
who received one ut a time as birthday
gifts. Sets Of silver forks and spoons
have also been gathered together in
this way, and pictures which have
some true artistic value. 1t is true
that all these things are of but scant
interest to the very young boy or girl,
but as they grow older their interest
is awakened, and a real appreciation
for possessing beautiful things Is found
to be a great delight.

Points
for
Mothers
I%nfantiIe Paralysis.

SuIdUt'ie aTa'ysIS.
~Infantile paralysis is IA germ disease.
Being a germ disease. %infantile paraly-
sis is communicable from person to
person. 1t is contagious and infectious.
The germ is mainly taken through
the nose.
1t is communicated by means of the
nasal discharge.
Wherever possible h%andkerchiefs
should be destroyed when soiled. In
any event, they should be thoroughly
boiled.
The use Of the pocket handkerchief,
however, is not sufficient to protect a
child from infection. The nasal pas
sage and throat should be kept thor
oughly sterilized. A mouth and nose
wash of hydrogen peroxide may be
used for the purpose. This may be ap-
piled with an atomizer or other form
Of spray.
Children should be made to avoid the
9Th Of the streets. Under no circum-
stances should they buy fruit or can
dies which have been exposed to the
dust charged air of the streets.
Do not let your children indulge in
kissing. Infantile paralysis may very
readily be spread in just that way.
Above all, keep your child clean.
These precautions are more neces.
sary in the summer months, but it
would not be unwise to practice them
the whole year.

Mothercraft For Bows,

Mothercraft for boys Is the newest

east side Of New York. Boys are
taught to help their mothers at home.
Mothercraft includes care Of the baby,
cooking, dressmaking, laundry work,
home management, home hygiene and
many other things.

throughout the country will be taught
domestic economy just as are girls.
Among the poorer classes men fire.
Quently are out Of employment and
the women can and work. Naturally
the husband should be able during his
1dleness to attend to the household du-
ties. The sooner a boy learns much
about the care Of the home the better
fitted he will be in an emergency to
look after the home. He should be
trained to help his mother. Then he
will be prepared to help his wife,"

about s1S0,000. 1t is therefore a

The importation of large quantities
of Mexican fuel oil into the United
States is no longer an idle dream but
is q grim reality. Three tank steam
ers leave Tampico every week for
Port Arthur, New Orleans, Tampa

on an average of about thirty thous

5000 barrels a week. Ii is expected
that this will be largely increased in
short time.
