HIS FRlENQs THERE.

Judge Joseph w. Bennet, Bfuns-
wick's candidate for Judge of the
United States district court, to sue
ceed the late Judge w. w. Lambdin,
is in Washington, having left the
city for the capital Sunday morning
in response to kilograms from his
friends calling him there for con-
ference. 1t is understood he will be
in Washington for a day or two.
According to information received
here from the capital, the Brunswick
candidate is now looming up as one
Of the strongest in the field, and he
is receiving strong support from all
sections of the state. While tele-
graphic information from Washing.
tCn seems to indicate that Hon j. T.
West, of Thomson, will get the ap-
pointment, still there are many who
seem to be of the opinion that this
section of the state will get the
Judge.

dacy, contained the following:

OUR ROSTERS TO
Help TRAP VILLA
MExICANS IN ATLANTA TO BUY
5000 GEORGIA BOOSTERS
FOR PURPOSE

ATLANTA, Jan. S.-The Georgia
rooster will soon be sent to the zone
of conflict to decoy the willy Pancho
Villa into the clutches of the federal
soldiers, according to Mexican ennis
saries here.
Six thousand Georgia gamecocks
are to be used in this vampirish role.
Daniel Strauss, a purchasing agent
with Felix Rodriguez Samecock
trained. have set up purchasing head
quarters at Broad and West Hunter
streets.
They have acquired to date 300
roosters. When the 5000 are secured
they will be sent to Mexico City via
Laredo, Texas, and Nueva Laredo,
Mexico. From that point they will be
distributed in carload lots to various
points of the territory near Villas
stamping grounds.
Villas weakness for the part OF
cock-fighting is matter of Mexican
tradition. He has never been known
to resist the lure of the cock-ring.
Purchasing Agent Strauss says
that the plan of the Mexican war
school is to take advantage of Villas
weakness, even though every rooster
in Georgia has to be exported to the
Mexican field of conflict. 1t is the
first instance in the history of wars,
from the first quarrel between Mr..
and Mrs. Adam to the present Eu-
ropean embroglio, that roosters have
been employed to betray great war
chiefs
Senors Strass and Rodriguez ex-
press confidence in the Mexican war
schools scheme. They say that when
Villa spies a flock of bantam roost-
ers strutting about, he will be utterly
unable to resist the temptation to
emerge from his hiding place to cap
ture them.
It is true that there is a rumor to
the effect that the purchases of Sen
ors Strauss and Rodriguez are for a
gambling syndicate in Mexico City,
the cock-fighter center of a country
which has for one of its national
sports the bantam battle. But both
senofs deny that the battling bantams
are being bought for anything but to
act as lure for Villa.
The 5000 will cost very large
sum. Between S. and $15 rooster
is being paid, and only thoroughbred
fighters accepted

The Glynn superior court was con
vened in adjourned session yester-
day morning, with Judge j. p. High
smith presiding. While most of the

some eight or ten were cleared from
the docket.
The grand jury was also organized

tary and l.. C. Marlin, bailiff. Judge
Highsmith delivered an unusually
strong charge to the grand jury, call
ing the attention of the members to
a number of laws on the statutes of
Georgia which are violated. He
dealth at length on many of these
laws and called upon the grand jury
TO make thorough investigation and
see that all of the laws are properly
observed
1t is expected that all of the pres
ant week will be devoted to the trial
of the civil docket, after which the
criminal branch of the court will be
taken up.

now planned Thus the congressman
was well supplied with ammunition,
in the shape of data, in his fight for
Brunswick's appropriation. Unques-
tionably, the fact that the city has at
last purchased a site for an adequate
municipal dock was of aid in secur-
ing the adoption of the. project. .
The appropriation covers the pro
ject as recommended by the board
of army engineers, which provides
for securing a depth of twentyseven
feet at mean low water on the bar
and twenty-four feet in Turtle River
East River. and Brunswick River at
mean low water, with proportionate
deepening of Academy creek. These
depths are to be obtained within
three years from the time the appro
priation becomes available. which
will be July first, next, if it passes
both house and senate, and will
mean that Brunswick will have
thirty-four feet of water on the bar
and thirty-one feet inside the harbo1
at mean high water.
Congressman Walker will make q
fight to see that the provision is re
tained in the bill in the house, and
the Board of Trade will call on the
other members of the Georgia dele
cation to aid him and will ask Sena
tors Smith and Hardwick to see tc
its passage in the senate.
The southern ports that have new
projects =, in the current appropria
ton bill are Charleston. Savannah
Brunswick, Tampa and Mobile, with
, a few provisions for river deepening
The adoption Of the Brunswick pro
iact is a recognition Of the merits Of
this port and a testimonial to the
good work of Congressman Walker
, and the Brunswick Board of Trade

pie of this city.
