consequence of the clever sleuthing of
Mounted Policemen Goodbread and
Register, who Immediately traced and
caught j. Gilliard, colored an alleged
thief who, it is claimed, stole STEPS
from her purse after two trials
Mrs. Gale was preparing to return
to her home in north Georgia Sunday
night arfter a considerable visit here
and called to have her trunk sent to
the station. Lee Godfrey, the dray-
man, brought a negro with him by the
name of J. Gillard. The purse was
lying on a table while the negroes
were taking the trunk from the room
and it was missed before the wagon
got away. An immediate investigation
the sand near the wagon where it had
evidently been thrown to conceal the
theft.
The purse was restored to it's place
on the table and soon the family re-
paired to supper. After supper the
purse, which contained $15.25, was
found open and all the money gone.
The negro was suspected and upon
investigation tracks coinciding to the
rubber slippers he wore were found
near a window to the room He was
caught yesterday with $13.25 in cash
and it Is supposed that he had spent
two dollars as he later confessed the
robbery to the police, and Mrs. Gale
will only lose two dollars.
A. r. Leybourne notified Chief OF
Police A. l.. Owens as soon as the
crime was discovered. Gilliard Is in

TAKE BRUNSWICK
SAND TO DETROIT
p. A. GLIDDEN SHOWS HIS AF.
FICTION FOR THIS SPLEN-
DID CITY.

P. A. Glidden, who has been here
several days in connection with his
interest in Brunswick Farms will
leave tomorrow for his home in De
troit, and it will be interesting to
Brunswickians that he will show his
affection for this place by carrying
with him little bottle of sand.
Curious travelling men had gathered
around Mr.. Glidden last night at the
Oglethorpe to know what was the in.
terest in the curious little bottle he
was carrying about with him. "Just
"a plain, common bottle of sand.
Shucksi"
THAT little bottle will mean quite a
lot to me in sentimental way when
get back to Detroit" said Mr.. Gid
den. 81 filled it up on ST. Simons
beach Sunday, and by the way. no
ticed many interesting things along
the line that makes me hope, with gen.
eral interest in Brunswick, that the
city will speedily acquire the neces-
sary property for her municipal wharf.
Il am deeply interested from a per-
sonal standpoint in the new shipbuild-
ing plant Mr.. Fendig has secured for
the city, as it will solve many vital
problems for Brunswick There is a
lot of room here for just such a plant,
as is indicated by the firm manner in
which these New York financiers took
hold of the subject when intelligently
shown what we have here. Those old
wharves | saw along the way from the
city to the quarantine station I hope
to soon see replaced with something
new and substantial. Those old wharyes
need to be in the hands of the munich
pality for the best interests of all con-
sidered and | feel sure that the pro-
gressive spirit that will make much
advancement here soon are gradually
getting into power. will remember
all these things when | look at my
little bottle of ST. Simon sand.

CHAUTAUQUA SPIRIT GRIPS
CITY COUNCIL; 1T RECESSES

One of the best evidences of what
a very tight grip the Redpath chau-
tauqua has on the people of Bruins
wick was demonstrated in the council
chamber last night.
A regular meeting of council was
scheduled; tie calendar was fairly
groaning with mass of city business
but the solons wanted to 60 to the
eEautanqua. They wanted to hear the
Weatherwax boys in that great musi-
cal stunt of theirs; they wanted to
hear Montraville Woods dissertation
on science. There was no council
meeting.
Into the discard went the petitions
and communications, the bills and
resolutions and seven husky aldermen
and the mayor beat it to the big tent
in time for the whole blooming show
The meeting was recessed with the
reading of the minutes until half past
eleven this morning

.LANKF0RD SPENDS
BUSY DAY HERE
TALKS ABOUT HIS RESIGNATION
AS JUDGE TO ENTER CON-
GRESSiONAL RACE.

Hon. w. c. Lankford of Douglas,
candidate for congress from the Elev-
enth district, was among the promi-
nent visitors to the city yesterday.
Judge Lankford, up to a few weeks
ago, was judge of the city court OF
Douglas and had two years additional
time to serve in that capacity. How
ever, when he announced for con-
gress he promptly rendered his resig-
nation to the governor
Discussing the matter with a News
representative yesterday, he stated
that he felt it to be his duty to re-
linquish his office of Judge the mo.

Landlord, 'for man to remain on the
bench, where he has to judge as be

time ask them for their votes for Of

Judge Lankford has many friends in
Brunswick and he was cordially wei
coined by them yesterday. He says
he is making no. claims, but is going
his own way, seeing the people of the
district as rapidly as he can. He re
turned to his home in Douglas last

MOVIE PICTURES
LOCAL PRAWN|NC
ARTHUR JONES, WHO TOOK PIC
TURES OF THE YARYAN PLANT
WILL BE PHOTOGRAPHER.

The announcement that moving pic.
lures will likely soon be taken of the
local shrimp factories and the actual
work of prawning as it is done in and
about here to be shown in the Animal
ed Weeklies in movie houses all over
America as typical examples, will be
heard in this city with interest.
Arthur Jones. the clever and eff
cient movie photographer who several
months ago photographed the Yaryan
plant here and who has sold the film
to the Paramount company to be
shown over America to show how ma
val stores are handled in south Geor-
gia, will likely be the photographer
as he has been in communication with
those interested with the local fac
tories, finding when the factories will
be in full blast and what dates would
most likely find everything, the prawn-
ing included in full blast and in posi-
ton to be taken to best advantage.
Manager Wood of the Grand is TAX
ing the matter up with Mr.. Jones and
will give him the necessary informa-
ton and probably show both that and
the Yaryan pictures in his theater
here, although no agreement as to that
has yet been reached. 1t is only that
Brunswick may be able to get the ben
eft of the advertising of having her
industries pictured all over the coun-
TRY as examples and be thought of and
spoken of in this connection that he
and Secretary Smith of the Board of
Trade are taking the matter in hand.

HEAVY ADVERTISING FOR
POPULAR TOBACCO

In this issue of the News and stimuli
taneously in large number of south
ern newspapers, there appears a very
striking advertisement for Tuxedo
smoking tobacco. This advertisement
contains the endorsement of 90 rail-
road firemen who smoke Tuxedo and
prefer it to all other tobaccos 1t is
but one link in a strong advertising
campaign now being waged on behalf
of Tuxedo all through the south.
Tuxedo, always popular brand
in this part of the country, has re-
ceived fresh impetus from this vigor-
Gus advertising and sales campaign,
carried on with characteristic energy
and enthusiasm AS a result it is an
nounced that Tuxedo now enjoys a
larger southern sale than at any time
in the history of the brand.
The advertising being done in the
newspapers not only strongly features
the endorsements of well-known
smokers, but explains fully thes rea-
sons for the mildness, sweetness and
unique non-biting qualities of Tuxedo
the characteristics to which the
wide popularity of the brand is due.

comprising probably more than 50,-
600 separate packages mailed for dis
tribution in Holland, are to be re-

British seizures OF parcel post con-

contend that the parcels might bene-

November, 1915. The postmaster
general has ordered that the postage
be refunded. A Temporary suspen-

THIRTY MEN
HAVE STARTED
CLEARING SITE
WORK ON NEW SHIPBUlLD-
ING PLANT SITE HAS BEGUN
IN DEAD EARNEST-lN-
CREASE CITY PAYROLLS.

Something like 80 men were start
ed to work yesterday morning clear
ing the grounds of the old terminals of
the Georgia Coast & Piedmont rail
road next to the N. Emanuel COM
pany's docks, making ready the site
for the plant of the Brunswick Ma
| rine Construction company. not wait
| ing for the filing of the charter before
work is started.
Captain Nilsson, the marine archi-
tect in charge of the work. has already
established his residence in Bruins
wick; has already capital in his hands
and didn't wait on details but hired
| large number of men and put them
| to work yesterday morning. e. l..
Higgins, his architect, arrived yester-
day from New York and is beginning
at once to draw the plans for the con.
structions of the entire plant, begin
ming first with the office building.
Albert Fendig the well known
| Brunswickian, was yesterday receiv-
ing many congratulations from the
progressive people of the city for hav-
ing brought this substantial company
to Brunswick. The capital stock of
| the company is 100000 and is being
put up, not by small promoters, ex-
pecting to try to put something over,
but by experienced ffnancierB who re-
alize that this Is logical place for
such a plant and they are going In
In dead earnest to bring returns from
their investment in turning out ships.
| The plant at the beginning or opera
tions will employ something like 200
men, many of whom will be highly
paid experts, bringing a large and de-
sirable class OF new citizens to Bruins
wick and making conditions much bet
ter here for working men to obtain
employment. City population experts
estimate that concern that brings
one new working man to the city, in
creases the population of the city five.
iThese 200 workers with their fami-
[ lies and the increased necessity in 9th
Ter lines of business incident to the
coming of the plant will at CON
lseryative estimate, increase the pop
/ ulation of Brunswick by 900 people.
| The large number of skilled work
men and the laborers will mean a
large payroll in the city, to the ad-
vantgae OF the merchants, etc
! 1t was stated yesterday that the
| four large schoners that will be built
within the next year, will be built
practically of Georgia lumber. The
I vessels will be of large tonnage, and
i will each carry auxiliary engines.
! Not much time will be required in
/ building the plant, 1t is stated and the
actual construction of the vessels will
. begin In the near future.
Experts claim that a point In favor
. of building ships in Brunswick will be
that they can take on their first cargo
/. here, before leaving for their maiden
| trip which is much better than being
built In Maine, or some other isolated
places from the congested shipping
districts and have to be taken In bal
last overseas to take on the first
cargo.

SMALL SUNDAY AFTERNOON
FIRE AT GEORGE AND LEE

The city fire departHpf.t was called
Sunday afternoon at 3 O'Clock for a
fire in an outhouse at the home of
&c. F. Way, corner George and Lee
streets. 1t was thought that the blaze
was started by match thrown away
in the dry grass which caught the
fence and carried the fire to the little
house.
The damage was small as there was
practically nothing in the house ex-
|cept plunder, the members of the fam
lily seldom going into it. No one was
home when the fire was started and
the alarm was sent in by neighbors.
The house had been used for kitch-
en-, later discarded when a better one
was built to the house and a store
was started in the building. No use
had been made of the house recently.
