ST0WAWAY ATE TOO MUCH:
CAME NEAR PASSING AWAY

An Italian youth, apparently about
Is years of age, reached here a few
days ago on the italian barkentine
loading near the canal and as soon as
the, ship reached port, obeying the
strict law, the captain had the boy de-
tanned at the county jail until sailing
date. Sheriff Pyles went aboard the
vessel and took the lad to the county
Jail. He had been confined only an
hour or two when he became desper-
ately i'll. County Physician Cate was
called and he ministered to the unfor-
tupate youth. At first it appeared to
be case of acute indigestion but
developments proved that the cause
was not only that but probably some
thing even worse. It was thought that
the lad had overloaded HIS stomach as
he had hardly reached Jail before he
became in a desperate condition and
alarmed all Of those confined there as
well as residents nearby. The boy will
be kept until the ship is ready for sea
and will be placed on board and re-
turned to Italy, his native land.

Some Uncertainty as to Whether
Office is Elective, or Made
by Appointment
THREE CANDIDATES AL
READY In THE RACE
The New Office Created Under
BrunsWick's Commiss i o n =
Manager Form of City Gov
ernnent Seems to be a Desir-
able One.

From present indications the con-
test for city recorder an Office created
under the recently enacted commits
sion manager charter for Brunswick,
viii be one of the livest political fights
that has developed here in a number
of years; with three candidates al
ready actively in the race and the
prospect that fourth entry will be
made in the next few days.
II is stated By attaches at the city
hall that it is not now definitely known
whether the recorder is to be elected
by the people, Or is to be appointed
by the city managers, and this point
will not be cleared up until the re-
yised document, as passed by the gem
eral assembly reaches the city. 1t is
said that the charter originally provid-
ed that the city recorder be named by
the commissioners, but this may have
been revised along with number of
changes that were made, and election
by the people provided for.
AT any rate. it may be stated that
there are no lack OF candidates for the
new office, be it before the commits
sioners or the voters. Three well
known citizens have already signified
their intention of being in the race.
and it is more than likely that Judge
R. T. Hitch will be the fourth entry.
Col. f. H. Harris and Attorneys D.
Fl. Pope and w. C. Little have already
announced for the place, and it is stat
ed that Judge Hitch is liable TO make
his entry into the contest at any time,
as it is known that he is seriously con
sldering the matter. Judge Hitch
filed the office of justice of the peace
here for many years, and it will be re-
! membered that he gave general salts
faction. He resigned to remove his
residence to Waycross, but he re-
turned to Brunswick more than a year
ago to make his home here.
While Mr.. Hitch has not been active
ly practicing law. he has kept in touch
with the profession. The other candi-
dates have been practicing law for =
number of years, Col. Harris being
the oldest member of the Brunswick
bar in point of continuous practice.
All of the candidates and prospective
cand3aates have numerous friends, and
a spirited contest is sure to develoE
with the certainty that Brunswick will
have an able Judge for its police court

selected
