of a more serious nature.
For some months Mr.. Burns has
been suffering with stomach trouble
and was under treatment of the late,
DR.. R. L. Fox, and since the death
of the latter. he has been growing
worse. Yesterday the attending ply
sician, Dr. H. M Branham, had his pa
tient taken to the hospital so as the
case could be watched more closely.
The many friends of this well known
Brunswickian sincerely hope that his
illness is not of a serious nature.

The first notice of the dissolution
of the Habersham Park Land Com
pany appears in this issue of The

organization of another company to
take its place and develop one of
Brunswick's most delightful sections
-Habersham Park.
Located, as it is, in the extreme
southern portion of the city, it is a
delightful place Famed by the
breeze from the southeast in summer
and protected from the cold winds
from the northwest in winter, it is an
ideal residential spot.
1t will be remembered that this
property was purchased by A. J. Cor

and it is stated that the new pur-
chaser will soon organize company
to make improvements with view of
selling those who will build homes. A
paved street, east to west, is one Of

MATH|LOE'S LOVE
MAY Be BLASTED
Word Comes from Switzerland
That the Consent of Both
Parents to Marriage is Nec-
essary.
(By Associated Press.l

Chicago, June 2.-Contending fac
tions of the erstwhile household of
Harold F. Mccormick were committed
to policy of compromise today over
the romantic affairs of Mathilde Nc
Cormick, and her former riding mast
er, Max Oser, Swiss horseman of Zu-
rich.
Conference between counsel for Ma
thilde's mother, Mrs Edith Rookie
feller Mccormick. and her divorced
husband, which saved Oser from an
absent investigation in court yester-
day, were confined today, with tomor-
row set by Probate Judge Horner as
the date for his decision ON Mrs. Nc
Cormick's petition for an injunction
to halt the marriage plans of Mathilde
and the Swiss. Mr. Mccormick, play
ing the double role of father and guar
dian, has agreed to withhold consent
of the marriage at least until Satur-
day.
Meanwhile the situation was made
more complex by information from
Zurich that the whole legal embrcg-
lilo in Chicago is for naught This In
formation was to the effect that the
Swiss law requires the consent of
both parents, if living, in the case of
bride under 20 years of age. Ma
thilde, who is only II, was given a
guardian, it was said, so consent to
the marriage could be given or denied,
according to her wishes.
Undaunted by the legal complica-
tions and the charges made by Mrs
Mccormick that he is a fortune hun
ter with designs on both Mccormick
and Rockefeller millions, Oser, in re
ports from Zurich, was said to be con-
tinuing plans for the marriage as if
nothing loomed to interfere.
Counsel for Mr.. and Mrs. McCor-
mick asserted that no basis for a fl
nal compromise on the proposed inter-
national marriage had been reached.

J.. c. VOCELLE, OF ST. MARY'S
IS SENATORIAL CANDIDATE.
Well Known Camden Man, at
Present Representative in
Lower House and Under Ro-
tation System is That Coun-
TVS Time to Name Senator.

Since the announcement in The
News Thursday morning of the posi-
tive decision, of Hon. B. F. Mann not
to become ascandidate a for reelection
as member of the house of represen-
tatives from Glynn county, various
names have been mentioned, but not
any one with as much persistency as
that OF Hon. L. R. Akin, at present
senator from the district which is
composed of Glynn, Charlton and
Camden counties. Under the rotation
system 1t is the latter's time to name
the senator and Hon. James c.. Vo-
celle, of St Mary's, at present repre-
sentative of Camden in the lower
house, has announced that he will be
a candidate. This statement was
made by Mr. Vocelle in Atlanta some
time ago and reiterated on various oc-
casions. Whether or not he will be
opposed in his own county is not
known.
Senator Tkin will lend his second
term as senator from the Fourth dis
trict of the coming session of the
Georgia lawmakers. He has repre-
sented Glynn on two occasions and
has served two terms as senator from
this district He has been on some of
the most important committees of
both senate and house, foremost
among these being chairman of the fl
nance committee, and besides this, he
has headed a great, almost statewide
movement, for drainage and good
roads. 1t is said that some of his pro
jects are now underway and it is
thought he can do as much work for
their successful termination as a
house member as he could if it had
been possible for him to have remain.

that the movement looking to his re-
turn oathe house is a strong one.

Manager Gramling that they would
be given their usual summer vacation
of ten days
For some time. it is understood, the
matter of granting a vacation to the

extra 'men in either branch of these
departments, but the city commission
ers devised a way to let one man off
at time, as has been the custom
heretofore.
Members of the police department
will begin Immediately to take their
vacations, the priority rule being in

however, in order to suit their prefer

friends, while some remain at home

the prospects of having no vacation

Providing License for Members
of Crews a Serious Handi=
cap to Prawn Men.
HELPERS ARE TAKEN FROM
BOATS WHILE ON HIGH SEA
Under Present Statute Each
Member of Crew Must be
Provided With License, and
in Many Cases Men Change
Several Times in a Week.

Local prawn fishermen, and there
are scores of them, are making seri-
GUS complaint against the present
Georgia law which requires each
member of prawn boats crew to
have a license and unless they have
this necessary paper, they are liable
to arrest, in fact, two or more have
been taken in charge by state game
and fish wardens when found on
prawn boats and when they could not
produce license papers. The amount
of the license is only $500.
Some days ago helper was taken
from the prawn boat of Capt. Martin
when the craft, he states, was three
miles off shore He was having en-
gine trouble, his net was out and he
did not know that the man at the
wheel had been arrested until the
craft made an oblique dash and he
hurried to the wheel and managed
to get back to Brunswick as best he
COulu. AHOlIleG case OI almost SlQll-
lar nature has been reported and if
the law is not changed it will mean
serious harm to this great local in
dustry. Boat owners sometime have
from two to five different men a week
as the class of labor employed is not
absolutely reliable and when weather
conditions are favorable it is the Gus
tom of the boat operators to put to
sea at the very earliest possible min
ute and they generally get any worker
they can find. But, if owners are COM
PEELED to take out license for each
man, the prawn business will not be
one of the paying kind
1t should be understood that all
masters of these craft have licenses
and they are perfectly willing to pay
the sum required, but with helpers,
the local game warden is not always
to be found when new men are en-
ployed so it is either remain in port
or go out and violate the law.

methods were responsible for the trial
just closing and the country had
reached point where it had to make
"a determined stand against such
methods to save itself from socialism.
