For several year* one of the most familiar alghta on (he streets of Mo. con haa been "Jake the Spider Mafi,' aa he haa been called. He could be seen on tho etreet corner*, without making any "spiel," with 1 grip hang ing around hla neck, while with one hand he “j " ‘ ‘ ‘ •ucfh strings hand ho Jiggled up and down a of things looking like spiders and au things, Buapended by rubber strir from so many sticks. There Is not a ohlld In Macon who has not seen him as he stood On tho corners with hla Jlggerlng ware*. Ho was here only the other day. For some .time he haa been using n small shrill whistle to attract attention to further the sale of his tricks, but some officer, tiring of the nolee. told him he must stop the use of It, and he quietly closed that grip of queer look ing things and stole out of town. The Information reached Macon yesterday that he was In Jail at Roan oke, Va., for refusing to pay a license of $75 Imposed by tho state on the sale of notions. It seems that when the license was^ demanded of him he thought It was extortion and refused to pay, which. It would nppoar, Is punishable in Virginia. He therefore went to Jail. Tho right name of "Jake the Spider Man" is William H. D. Nesbitt and he Is an East Indian. He Is a well edu cated man, and In splto of tha fact that he Is a follower of ghowsand carnivals and goes whenever there are crowds, and la engaged In a business that while 'legitimate, from Its char acter Is not regarded as being first- class, Nesbitt la one of the prominent Christian Rndtavor men In Boston, and la a regular correspondent of the periodicals of that organisation. For twenty-seven years Nesbitt has been In this country, and hn* been eomlng to Macon nearly all these years. He la an omnivorous reader, and carries In hla pocket a large book Ailed with newspaper clippings on such subjects aa strike him as being of force. This collection of clippings Is a remarkable one and each la dated. He has carried tome of them so. long that the edges are worn to a fturtle. Hla travels are over the whole United States, and he le familiar with every city. He ta an encyclopedia of certain places' a# well aa the future dates. It Is his Invariable rule to at tend ehurch wherever he may be on Sunday, and It Is often that he maktw talks on religious matters. Those who know him well believe that he went to Jail simply because he believed he was right In refusing to pay suoh a heavy license, and not be cause he could not nay It. it Is said that he has accumulated quite a little fortune In America, and a friend said yesterday that he had money Invested In real estate In Kansas. Among the little children he has a number of friend* who no doubt regret to learn that he Is In trouble, even though It la not because of any crim inal act on hla part other than to re fuse to pay the state license. any good gro- AT MEETING OF COUNCIL So ter there Is nothing of unusual ten- purunes to transact at the meeting of the mayor end council tonight ... tonight »e »*t _ _ .
