SAVANNAH MAN DIES,
STORY OF HIS DEATH.
WRITES A CARD JO ONE OF THE
PAPERS TO ALLAY FEARS OF
HIS CHERITORS,
Savannah. March 24—An amusing
incident happened here yesterdi
with the joke at the expense of one
of the local papers. The following
letter Is self explanatory:
Editor:—Have lust had a sensa
tion ao rarely experienced that I
must relate It. Have read In your
Issue of yesterday that I was dead,
and buried this morning from > my
residence, No. 316 East Anderson
street. Please correct, if for no oth
er reason- than ’to pacify the feeling
of some who have pecuniary rather
than a friendly Interest. .Further
more, have a brother living else
where who would be caused some
unnecessary worry should a copy of
tl.e paper fall Into bis hands. There

London, March 24.—The Important
changes recently announced by the
Admiralty, and which have come
In for such adverse criticism from the
press and public alike, were put In.
to effect today. The so-callel Chan
nel Fleet Is most affected by the
changes. Heretofore this fleet, un
der the command-of Admiral Lord
Charles Beresford." has been regard
ed as the chief fighting unit of the
first line of Great Britain's naval
force. Now the more Important ves
sels of the Channel Fleet, under the
command of Vice Admiral Sir Archi
bald Berkeley Milne, are to form
the second division of the main
fleet, under supreme command of
Vice Admiral Sir William H. May.
Means Beresford's Retirement
This means the prnclienl retire
ment from the service of Admiral
I-ord Charles Beresford. who In the
ordinary coarse would hnve held
the Channel command for another
year. His premature retlremet, It Is
openly hinted, Is due to his severe
criticisms of the management of the
navy when he was a member of Par
liament.
Regarded as Very Capable.
The public has been accustomed to
regard Lord Beresford as one of the
most capable officers In the British
navy. He has been In the service flf-
ty years, and his chief fame
gained nt the time of the bombard
ment of Alexandria and in the opera
tlons In connection with Lord Wol-
seley'a Egyptian campaign.

MIL THOMAS RESIGNS.
Western Union Manager Quite the
Business and Will Move to Fla.
Mr! A. W. Thomas, who recently
resigned his position as local man
ager of the Western , Union Tele
graph office, was today checked out
ty the officials of the qoinpany, and
has turned the office over to hla suc
cessor, Mr. Gaskins, who comes fro;n
Florida.
Mr. Thomas Is a veteran of the
key—one of the "old guard,” who
never let a strike or anything else
lessen his loyalty to the company.
He hap been manager at Valdosta
for about twelve years, and has been
an operator for more than 40 years.
He was always accommodating to
the patrons of ttfie office, giving them
the best service possible, and leave*
Valdosta with the best wishes
his hundreds of friends. His resig
nation was the reault largely of ill
health. He and his ftmlly will leave
tomorrow for Elolie, Fla., where
they will reside In future.
There la more talk- about making
burglary a capital offense. Would It
not be better to Increase the time

All efforts have failed to find a
better remedy for coughs, colds and
lung troubles than Foley’s Honey

the Inngs and prevents serious re-
salts from a cold. J. N. Patterson,
Nashua, Iowa, writes: “Last winter
I had a bad cold on my lungs and
tried at least half a dozen advertis

mended Foley’a Honey and Tar and
