the message concluded, ‘‘to get
some of these delegates there in
case your name comes before the

Your moral perceptions are too

Lid Clamped Down
Sl. Simons Island
Brunswick, June 18.—The lid is
to be placed on St. Simon, Bruns
wick’s summer resort, and no
more will the pleasure seekers be
able to go up to the bars and call
for beer. Strict orders were yes
terday issued by the county com
missioners to the special officer on
the island to hereafter see that all
laws, including the prohibition
law, were rigidly enforced on the
island. In the past the various
dealers on St, Simon have been
permitted to sell beer, but the sale
of whiskey has always been strict
ly prohibited. Recently the cour
ty commissioners have received a
number of complaints of drunken
ness on the island, and, after tak
ing up the matter and considering
it, they decided to at once stop
the sale of beer, and anv one offer
ing it for sale after today will be
rrested for a vwolation of the
prohibition law. |

not a man had been bitten. The rep
tiles were slightly dormant, owing to
the coolness, but when aroused would
sally forth from the cave. Clubs,
shotguns and rifles were used in the
slaughter. When no more snaxes
emeirged from the cave a repeating
shotgun was discharged into it and
about fifty more were dragged forti.
Some of the specimens killed meas

others were only a few inches in
length. Some of the larger ones will
be stuffed and placed on exhibition.
For years the farmers in that neigh
borhood have been bhothered by tias
great number of rattlesnakes. The
gulch of that name was literally alive
with them. The den discovered by
Mr. Smith is on the Peoplex ranch.
After cleaning out this den it was de
