"Yes'm," said Fanny. ''It's 20

want 'em tear it down, I'm willin'."
She departed, and Mrs Williams
continued to sew. The days were grow
ing short, and at five o'clock she was
obliged to put the work aside, as her
eyes did not permit her to continue it
by artificial light. Descending to the
lower floor, she found the house silent,
and when she opened the front door
to see if the evening paper had come,
she beheld Sam, Penrod and Maurice
Levy standing near the gate engaged
in quiet conversation. Penrod and
Maurice departed while she was look
ing for the paper, and Sam came
thoughtfully up the walk.

One Thing at a Time.

Perhaps because you have so many
goals you wish to reach you are far
AWAY from any of them, observes an
efficiency expert.
You are dividing your forces.
You must have one real objective
point If you would win SUGGESTIVE
success which is worth winning.
1t is quite impossible to have one
major subject which you study and
aim to excel in, and then fritter away
part of your time on others.
Certain arts and studies are allied,
It's true.
Then select one and study it thor
dughly and well.
Concentrated thought, study and &C
tlon in one direction will accomplish
great things.
But a smattering of all and finish
OLE nothing is time wasted.
Choose wisely; then go to it, one
thing at time.

A Hindrance.

An army officer who served in the
Spanish war tells of New York regi-
ment, many of whose members were
recruited on the East side. They were
spelling for a fight, and it became
necessary to post guards to preserve
order.
A big husky Bowery recruit, Of pu-
gilistic proportions, was put on duty
outside and given special orders to
see that quiet reigned, and, above all
things, if trouble came his way, not
to lose possession of his rifle.
Soon a general row began, grow
ing in proportions as the minutes pass
ed. The soldier walked his post ner-
vously, without interrupting, until the
corporal of the guard appeared on the
scene with re-enfOrcements.
"Why didn't you stop this row?' de-
manded the corporal.
The sentry balanced his rifle on his
shoulder, raised his arm to the cor
rect boxing position, and replied:

Causes of Winds.

Winds are produced by a disturb
ance of the equilibrium in some part
of the atmosphere; disturbance al
ways resulting from a difference in
Temperature between adjacent Sec
lions. Thus, if the temperature Of a
certain extent of ground becomes high
err the air in contact with it becomes
heated, it expands and goes towards
the colder or higher regions of the
atmosphere whence it flows, prOduc-
ing winds which blow from hot to cold
countries. But at the same time the
equilibrium is destroyed at the sur
face of the earth, for the pressure on
the colder adjacent parts is greater
than on that which has been heated,
and hence a current will be produced
with a velocity dependent on the diff
ference between these pressures; thus
two distinct winds will be produced
an upper one setting Outwards from
the heated region, and lower one set
ting inwards towards it.

DAMAGE SUITS
COME UP TODAY
IN CITY COURT
Mr.. and Mrs. j. T. Winn, of
Jesup, Suing as Result of
Death OF Son.
MANY WITNESSES IN CITY
Several Lawyers Are Interested
in Two Cases, Which Will
Probably Occupy a Day Or
Two in Court.
MANY WITNESSES IN CITY

A civil suit for damages, which is
expected to take up a day or two
and in which much interest is man
ifested, will be called in the city
court this morning as soon as the
case now on trial goes to the jury
about $50 o'clock.
The case is that of j. T. Winn, of
Jesup, VS.. the Southern railway. In
Tact, there are two cases, one by Mr.
Winn for $4,000 and the other by
Mrs. Winn for $4,000. These suits
grow out of the killing two or three
years ago Of a son Of the plaintiffs,
who, at the time of his death, was
II years of age. The accident which
cost young Winn his life is we'll re-
membered by the people of Bruins
wick.
The young man had come down
from Jesup to spend a day with his
parents, who were cottaging on St
Simon at the time. He spent Sun
u'S oii tiio iolailu, lelulHeu " DIullS-
wick Sunday afternoon and left over
the Southern the same night for
Jesup. Early Monday morning his
dead body was found near the tracks
of the Southern just short distance
this side of Jesup. His death was a
mystery for time. Finally two
young men of BaXley were arrested
on the charge of murder, it being
claimed that they pushed him from
the train. One of the men was tried
and acquitted and the case against
the other was nolle pressed.
Later these suits were filed by Mr.
and Mrs. Winn, the one by the father
$4,000, being for the time his son
had lost by being killed, and the 9th
er by Mrs. Winn being for the loss
of the boy.
A large number of witnesses are
in the city to testify both for the
plaintiffs and the railroad company
and it may take two or three days
to dispose of the case Mr.. and Mrs
Winn are represented by Attorneys
Oliver and Oliver of Savannah, and
Judge ID. M. Clark, of Jesup, while
the Southern will be represented by
the division counsel, Bennett, Twitty
and Reese, of this city.

Washington, Aug 14-The pope's
peace proposals were not unexpected
by the United States nor any of the
entente allies. The possibility of a
peace move was discussed with Min
lister Balfour and Vice Premier vi
viani when the British and French
missions We're in Washington. 1t was
then agreed by all the allies, includ-
ing the United States, to refuse to
discuss peace terms while Germany
occupied territory taken by force
from the allies. 1t was thereby plan
ned to avoid what the allies termed
a German trap
An unofficial outline of the pope's
peace proposals which have been re-
ceived here includes some of the
principles for world peace for which
President Wilson long ago declared.
Among the proposals of the pope
is the reduction of the armaments,
freedom of the seas. no retaliatory
struggle after the war for economic
supremacy.
These are regarded as the founda.

There is no disposition to ascribe
any but the loftiest motives to the
pope in accepting the face value of
the proposals as emanating from vi

to the proper division of responsible
ity between the central powers and
the pope.
1t is regarded as important to
know whether the proposals came
full fledged from Vienna or Berlin.
or whether the pope framed them.
The entente diplomats agree that
the idea did not come from any of

WATSON PAPER
CANNOT LONGER
USE THE MAILS
Second Class Mailing Privilege
to The JeffersOnian Is
Revoked.
MAGAZINE is NON-MAnABI,E
Local POstOffice Notified Yester=
day That Thomson PubIica-
tiOn Must Not be Delivered
From POstOffiCe.
MAGAZINE is NON-MAILAR,E E

The Brunswick postoffice was no
titled yesterday that the postoffice
department had revoked the second
class mail privilege of Toh Watson's
magazine, the Jeffersonian, and that
hereafter the paper would not only
enjoy the second class mailing rates,
but that it had been held to lie TN
mailable.
1t is understood that simultaneous.
ly the postmaster at Thomson, where
the Jeffersonian is published, has
been instructed not to receive Wat
sons paper for mailing, consequently
it will not be necessary for postmas-
ters all over the country to refuse
the delivery Of the paper
The announcement received yester
day has been expected for some time
as the third assistant postmaster
general has had the matter under ad.
visement for three or four weeks.
Postmaster Marion Lucas, at Savan
nah, held up the Jeffersonian one
week, then the Macon postmaster
held it up another; again at lamps
it was held up, while postmasters
generally, after reading some of the
articles in the magazine, decided tha
| it was not mailable and held up va
rious issues. One issue of the pub
lication was held up by the local post
master who immediately asked fol
instructions from the department, and
1t was in reply to this letter that
the information was received in the
city that the paper had been barred
from the mails. The instructions
from the department were to the eff
feet that the publications second
class privilege had been revoked anu
that any papers now being held were
non mailable and should not be de.
livered
The last issue of the Jeffersonian
was not received here through the
mails. 1t is understood that. in places
where the paper has a large circula-
ton, it has been sent by express.
Watson's publications, however. have
never had a large circulation in
Brunswick, only few copies of the
Jeffersonian being received here
weekly.

GOVERNMENT TO
TAKE 4 HAND IN
LIQUOR TRAFFIC
Patrol Boats to Stop Carrying
lntOXicants From Florida to
Georgia Points by the Water
Route.

Uncle Sam is to take a hand to
check the alleged wholesale ship
ments Of liquor into south Georgia
from Florida points, it was learned
here yesterday.
For a long time past it has been
rumored that certain liquor runners
winked at the state prohibition law
and made regular trips via the inside
boat route to Jacksonville and Fern
andina, and returned with a goodly
store of liquor.
Now they will be given the oppor
tunity to try and wink at Uncle Sam
The government will act under the
law prohibiting the shipment of Ii
quor into dry states and the govern.
ment naval patrol boats will be call
ed into service to put a check on
the inside route traffic
Other methods will be put in force
to stop the overland liquor runners
All in all, there is going to DE time
OF 1T, according to the information
given out yesterday.
In the first place, the work of the
patrol boats is destined to raise havoc
with the alleged trade, for under
the law beat caught in the act of
taking liquor into a dry state is seiz-
ed at once as contraband property
and is confiscated. So the would-bc
interpret liquor runner better look out
or some new boats may be added to
the mosquito fleet. Also there is a
wall not very far away 1t runs
around a private government insti-
tuition at Atlanta. Six months in the
federal penitentiary is part of the
sentence for convicted liquor runners.
A fine of $1,000 is the other part of
the sentence
So, all in all, there will be a merry
time of it down the inside route when
Uncle Sans 'jackies" are turned
loose on the men running liquor boats

BOARD At WORK
ON Exc MPTlONS;
% ARE EXCUSED
Total OF Forty-Eight Examined
Yesterday and Only Four
Failed to Have Exemptions
Granted.

The Glynn county exemption board
started yesterday morning on the diff.
ticult task of hearing exemptions
filed by those who were drawn in the
first draft army, and who appeared
before the board and were examined
last week, and during the day the
board succeeded in passing on forty
eight cases
or this number forty-four exemp-
tions were granted, but four were re
fused. They were n w. Walker. J.
w. Blount Matthew Jackson and
Willie Butler. Nest of those who
claimed exemptions on the ground
that they had families to support
sustained this plea and consequently
the exemptions were granted.
The board will continue in session
today and continuously until all those
who have claimed exemptions arc
granted. When this work is com,
pleted. it will be known how MANY
men are needed to make up Glvnn's
quota of 107 men, and a second call
will then be issued.
