What Albany dealer has been ship ping booze of the “Paul Jones” brand to a blind tiger in Moultrie? Who ever he is, he may be interested in the following from the Moultrie Ob server: “Mayor Monk has in his possession about forty bottles of booze of the ‘Paul Jones’ brand that he would like tor some one to tell him what to do with. "The whiskey was located in a ne gro house a day or two ago and was ‘confiscated.’ The merchandise came from Albany addressed to Ed Fowler, a negro that has been serving a term in the penitentiary for the past six months, and, the police having their suspicion aroused by the address, watched the delivery. It was taken by a hackman and delivered in one of the little houses belonging to Mr. Z. H. Clark, the negro who inhabits the house being away from home. When the tenant camtv in he was nabbed and the case of whflskey was also taken, but it being addressed to an other man, the negro in charge could not be convicted. The hackman said he had instruction from the negro to deliver the goods, but the negro de nied this, and so there was little to be accomplished further than to hold the whiskey, which the police did.” Former Governor-General Passes Away. of Cuba Good Intentions pave certain roads, but if it’s a Walk in your yard or sidewalk paving rou want done you’d better see us. paving is not so,easily broken. mny Pressed Stone Co. Albany, Ga„ April 4, 1900. To The Herald: The article on house numbering in The Herald of Saturday, presents the matter very clearly. This method of numbering, known as the “centenhial system," is used In very many cities of the country, large and small, where the regularity of the streets will ad mit of It. Its simplicity and conven ience are evident. About a year ago I furnished a statement to the City Council, giving the quantity of num bers of each denomination which would be required to number the en tire city, on a basis of 26% feet to the uumber in the business section, and 52% feet in the residence portion. But it would be better to allot 26% feet for the entire city. As the city blocks are multiples of an acre, 26% feet to the number would be required to come out even. .catroons, La.dy Fingers. locolate Cake, Pound Cake. ly Roll, Bread and Rolls FRESH EVERY DAY GOOD ALL THE TIME.
