FRIENDS In AMERICIJS
Handsome Gifts are Presented
Him Here

In the presence of the Americus Bar
Association, county officials and an
assemblage of friends, Judge Charles
R. Crisp, upon the eve of his retire
ment from the bench, was presented
yesterday with several very handsome
tokens of esteem and with resolutions
expressive of regret at the severance
of these official relations.
Hon. J. E. Sheppard president of the
Bar Association, presided during the
brief exercises, fraught with so much
emotion upon the part of Judge Crisp
and those friends with whom he has
been associated so long and so init
mately and so pleasantly.

We're adopted by rising vote:

Nj. E. A. Nisbet, upon behalf of
the Bar Association, then presented
Judge Crisp a handsome puncn bowl
and a dozen cups of fine china, ex-
quis,tely hand-painted and ornamented
withal while olicitor-General Will
liams, upon behalf of the City court
officers, presented Judge Crisp a
LtaI tifuI silver service of six pieces.
Both speakers were eloquent in the
tributes paid the retiring jurist, who
in words that we'll conveyed his deep
feeling of appreciation, made response
tIe'eto.
Judge John A. Cobb, of the Court If
Ordinary, than whom Judge Crisp has
no more ardent admirer, then pre-
scented him with a handsome silver
punch bowl Iadle to match the beauti-
full gift of the Bar Association, speak
ing deeply and feeIingly in doing so.
The Sons of Speakers.
Judge Crisp's father, the lamented
Charles F. Crisp, and my father Gen
Howell Cobb, were the only Georgians
ever honored by being chosen speak
ers of the National House of Repre-
sentatives of the United States" said
Judge Cobb, as he thus referred to
that rather remarkable coincidence.
1T is a singular coincidence that
we, the eldest sons of these distin-
guished Georgians, should have been
thrown together here, officially, social
ly and affectionately.
1T is a great pleasure to me that
Judge Crisp has been honored with the
post on that has been given him
showing a national recognition OF
his merits, but it is also with great
regret that he has to leave us and
this feeling is the unanimous express
sion from all the citizens of Ameri-
Gus and Sumter county.
Il believe and trust that this promo
ton is only the beginning OF higher
and more meritorious position under
cur government that will be accorded
to him.
Strong Ties of Friendship.
Judge Crisp and myself know the
strong, warm and affectionate regard
that exists between us, but it is mete
and proper on an occasion like this
that we should give some evidence to
others as to the relations existing be-
tween us.
1T therefore affords me great pleas
ure, my friend, to present you with this
testimonial of my high regard"
Judge Crisp then in a very feeling
and emotional way thanked all for the
expressions of regard and expressed
his deep regret at leaving Americas.

Miss Laura Phinney of Springfield, Mass, has been the guest of Senator and Mrs. G. A. Hammond on Prospect street: MT, Hammond entertained party in honorlof his niece, Miss Phin- ney, to pilgrimage to Plainfield by automobile, where the gravestone of Gurdon Cady was examined with in- interest. Mir. Cady Is remembered in this city as "All Ready Mir. Cady,n and as this inscription was found to be upon the monument directly over an engraved violin, 1t was reminder of the many times that expression has been heard in dance halls. Upon the opposite side of the monument an en- graving of a COW was noted, being in memory Of Mir. Cady's pet COW, which gave wonderful, quantity of milk. Senator Hammond also entertained in honor of his niece, party to Hartford on Tuesday, when he conducted them through the capitol, visiting the sen- ate, the house, and inspecting various points of interest in and about the capitol and the state library. Mir. Hammond presented the library n copy of Robert Burns poems translated in- to Gaelic by cousin of Dr. Neil Mac Phatter Hammond.

Putnam to Have a Safe and Sane Fourth

The mayor has issued the usual warning regarding the celebration of the Fourth of July forbidding all un. seemly noise between the hours of sun set on the third of July and four o'clock In the forenoon of the following day or between eleven o'clock in the evening of July fourth and sunrise of the following day under penalty of hne of 8. He has also issued an order forbidding the sale of any canes or ammunition or any caps, toy pistols, re- volvers, blank cartridges or fireerack- CTS eight inches or over in length. This will certainly meet the approval of all of our citizens who have come to look upon the old-fashioned celebra- ton of Independence Day, with It's aftermath of mangled limbs, loss of eyesight, death and sorrow, as bar barous custom. Putnam never drew the line on the sale of explosives as close as last year, the same as drawn this year, and never was the day more quietly and satisfactorily observed. The movement has become general throughout the country. Most cities provide some sort of entertainment in lieu of noise and 1t has proved most satisfactory. It is too late for Putnam to arrange for quiet home celebration this year but in future years some sort of entertainment should be furnished to properly observe the day. Parades, speeches, sports, with fireworks in the evening, set of by one who knows how to handle such things, makes a safe kind of celebration and the kind that many cities are providing.

Planning Outings

There is plan afoot to have the lodges of Odd Fellows in Putnam, Southbrldge, Webster and Pascoag, representing three states, combine on some day in July for trip to Provi' dence river resort. The date has not been selected. It is planned to have a special train and so arrange every fea- ture as to insure big success.
 Along this same line of endeavor the camp of the Sons of Veterans in this city is also working, the idea being to get the camps of the organization in Putnam, Danielson, Grosvenordale, Webster and Central Villageito com- bine for field day some time during July. A meeting of committee was held in Putnam Saturday night to dis cuss the matter.

City Court..-Fuller Judge.

Chauncey Parkhurst, an old odend- er,was before the court Saturday morn- ing and sentenced to 50 days in jail, and 10 pay costs of Ss.09 for being a common drunkard.
 Pasquale San Phillipo, Charles and Dominick Castronomo were before the court Tuesday afternoon charged with peddling without license. The first mentioned plead guilty, .the other two not guilty. They were all found guil- ty and paid fine and costs of SS.30 each andSpromised to leave town. These are the men who have been vietimiz- ing citizens by selling them cloth which they claimed was ilinen, but which proved to be cotton, as reported in the PATRIoTilast week.
 Mrs. Hattie l.. Cole appeared and identified the Castronomos. She said that Dominick came to her house be- tween and o'clock Tuesday morn. ing, and offered to sell her linen at 40 cents yard. She had purchased
 
 found it was cotton. She told him she would notify the police and he said he was going right out of town. Charles came along about o'clock and want ed to sell some linen- She told him he had no linen. He then said he had made mistake and said it was cotton and offered it for 15 cents a yard. She threatened to have him arrested, and he too said he was going to get right out of town.
 1t is thought that the man that of this trio, but that he told them that Putnam was a rich field, and they all came here to reap some of the rich har- vest. The men denied that they had called at any house, saying that they did not get To town until II o'clock. Captain Murray had merry chase over the city to locate the men. He got the assistance of number of boys on bicycles, land reports that man answering the description had been seen came in from all points of the compass. It caused astonishment how a man could be in so many places at once, as at first it was not known that there was more than one man work ing. It was afternoon before the three were finally landed at the police office. They claimed to be working for man in New York.

Editorial Scraps

Nearly fifteen hundred members of tion, many of them with their wives, gathered at the Oriental Hotel, at Manhattan Beach, to listen to and ap- plaud President Taft in a carefully studied speech on currency reform.
 There is no legislation--l care not what 1t is--tariff, railroad, corporation, or of a general political character, that at all equals in importance the putting of our banking and currency system on the sound basis proposed in the Ma tional Monetary Commission plan, the President said.
 A new and important factor in the race problem in the South has been re- vealed by the interstate commerce commission, surprising as this may seem. 1t IS the mail-order whisky business that the commission has re- gently discovered. No less than 20,- OO0,0 900 gallons of liquor are shipped annually by express into prohibition states, as a result of the mail-order system of trade. Most Of the prohibit bition states are in the South, and . large part iof the mail-order whiskey goes direct to negro customers who have trouble in breaking through the anti-saloon laws.
 "The secret of the destruction of the battleship Maine will never be known'' said Gen. w. II. Bixby, chief Of en- gineers in charge of the work of raising the Maine, upon his arrival at Tampa, Fla, Sunday from Havana. The des- truction to the vessel was such, says Gen. Bixby, and the deterioration has been so great that 1t will be impossible to tell whether the ship was blown up from force within or without.
