Meonshlnsra Sentenced—Number c
Violations of the Revenue Lewe—
Remarks of Judge 8pcer in
Sentencing Two Negroes.
A number of cases were tried In the
United States court yesterday, all of
them for violation of the revenue laws
In one way or another.
John W. Oliver, Laurens county,
plea of guilty, on# month or fine or
1100.
Genlo Trawlck Hancock county, plea
and verdict of not guilty.
G. A. Collins, 'ftaldwin county, plea
of guilty, one month or fine of tl00.
John ft. Dokes. Wilkinson county,
plea of guilty sentence deferred.
Thoe. Lowe and Grant Ferguson.
Upson county, pleas of guilty, sen
tence deferred.
Jim and Charlie Trawlck. Hancock
county. These negroes were convict
ed of Illicit distilling. Tho follow
ing nro the rrnnsrkt of Judge Speer in
sentencing them;
“l find It Impossible to take what I
always try to do when I possibly can,
end that Is a lenient view of the con
duct of persons convicted of violation
of the liquor laws. I can conceive of
greater danger to the peace of any
community in Georgia than a sue
ressful Illicit distillery for the manu
fact«ire of the conrse, fiery, and mad
dening liquor which It produces, con
trolled entirely by negroes, In g com
munity where the security of homes,
the wifely of property, the chastity of
womanhood, and all that men hold
dear, are threatened by members of
their own race, and others who may
become Infuriated by the product of
the stills. We have seen pictures of
this distillery, und know what it wa§
—one in which 4he liquor made there
would turn a harmless, and perhaps
kindly, man pf their own race Into
practically a demon. We know that
he might then commit crimes which
would turn an orderly community into
moh of lynchers. Wo know that
their products will demoralise luhor.
because there Is nothing In tho world
which Is so conducive to lastness, and
destructive of nn Inclination to
work, as alcohol.
"This these men furnished In that
neighborhood. I have not the slight
est doubt myself that they were par
ticipants in that distillery. Perhaps
there was this man. whom
of as ‘on a scout.' and whom
aisled. But If they wero not
selvea directly engaged In ihe opera
tlon, they facilitated the operation and
afforded everything needed. They
hauled wood, hnuled -syrup, and gave
him shelter, according to their qrwn
statement. In addition to the seri
ousness of the cflme nnd the fact that
It might have turned n rural neigh
borhood in one of the flnestgcountles
they apeak
m they aa-
not them-
in Georgia Into a pnndcmonlum, they
hnvn added the guilt of perjury. They
both swore to statements which the
Jury promptly disregarded, and which
the court did not bellevo for one mo
ment was true while they wero stal
ing It.
"I must make *n egample of these
men. not 1»ecanse they are colored men
—for white men offending In liken
ner will go the same way—but
cause they are law-breakers or the
most injurious character; and that too,
when the people of this state and many
southern states are doing all they pos
sibly can to get rid of the bane and
destructiveness of Intoxicating drink.
An Illicit distillery Ja Infinitely worse
than a well ordered saloon. It Is not
better than a blind tiger—perhaps
worse. Nothing I* more dangerous
to society. My sentence to that these
men be Imprisoned In the United
States penitentiary In Atlanta. Geor
gia. for the term of a year and a day.

ONE LONE TEAM
USEDJHE PARK
And Attraeted Attention on Poplar
8treet by Ite LonesomenoA—•
What a Citizen Hat to Say on
the Subject.
gon has dsrod to Invade the precincts
of the nowly plowed up park on Poplar
below Third.
Countrymen had driven up the street
to eea that they wero not wanted on
that nark, and then they drove sor
rowfully away. Strangers saw th-:
lumpy ground and would not croas.
Hut yesterday a daring countryman
drov* right on the park and camped.
He took hla mules out, hitched them
to the wheels of hla wagon, gave them
fodder and went away*. The ecene at
tracted attention. It being the first of
the kind In so many daya, and com
ment was plentiful.
Now that Alderman Bright gives It
as his oplnton that the aldermen will
allow the parks to remain is they are
until the flrot of May and the people
-a satisfied—until the flrot of May.
Rpeaking of the parks, here Is {he
opinion of a citizen:
"Now that the city council has act-
The balloon Yankee which started
on a long distance trip from St. Louis
on Wednesday and landed near Tiger,
Rabun county, Ga., Thursday,
making its maiden trip.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch prints
tbls local story of the balloon's a«
censlon:
Albert Bond Lambert, millionaire
councilman, and Capt. Harry
Honeywell cleared the derricks,
bias and smokestacks In the yards
of the Laclede Gas Light Company
at Second and Rutger streets at ex
actly 12:39 Wednesday afternoon on
thn maiden trip of the Yankee, a new
balloon. Lambert, who will pilot the
balloon. Is out to win the Lahm cup
if the weather conditions prove right
and the balloon gas-tight.
Tho balloon carried 60 sacks of
sand of 46 pounds each, and moved
off to the cast eluggtohly at a low
elevation, with Lambert throwing
ballast overboard to avoid the depres
sion caused by tho river.
While the balloon was still over tbe
river, bag after bag of sand went out
nnd the Yankee rose and sailed slow
ly before u light wind hllfntly to
the north of eust at an elevation of
about 2',000 feet, until it was lost to
sight.
Send Stsmpedes a Mule.
The "get-away" offerejL.an amusing
moment of excitement when Mr. Lam-
bert dropped a shovelful of sand on-
a big white mule used In hauling coal
In the yard. The mule wus standing
with drooping ears, paying no more
Attention than If It were an every
day occasion. But when fho sand
landed on top of his head he started
to climb a mountain of coal, slipped
back on hla huunches and started on
Stampede nrnund the yard. Ho could
not be quieted for several minutes.
Mr. Lambert had notified bhe club
by telegraph early In tho morning of
hla Intention to enter In competition
for tbe lAhm cup If conditions were
found to be right When he got Into
tho upper atmosphere and learned the
mettle of the new balloon he to rid
ing In.

makes the longest flight In the United
States, provided ho Js a member of
the Aero Club of America or an affil
iated organization.
Banquet If He Wins.
’If tho Lahm cup come* to »t
Lon Is," nald Mr. Lambert us 'he watch-
cd tho Inflation of tho big gas bag
of the "Yankee," "the event will be
celebrated with a banquet.”
It Is the Yanke's maiden trip. The
balloon, which contAlna 1,200 yards of
oiled cotton and has been pronounced
an especially well constructed air
craft, has a capacity of 10,000 cubic
feet of gas.
The basket Is large and heavy, be
ing 4 f**et 8 Inches wide by 6 feet
long. It has been well atocked for
the fllg.it with provision*, aerial navi
gation Instruments: and contrivances
for keeping the travelers as comfort
able as possible.
Csrrles Signal Light.
Among the scientific Instruments

statnscope. purchased by Mr. Lumbert
In Paris. The statoscope Is use^l to
determine whether the balloon to as

aneroid barometer Is also taken, and
an Osram light, such aa saved the
life of Aeronaut Arnold when he fell
in the North 8ca os an Incident of
the last International race from iBer-
lln.
Maps of Iowa, Indiana, Illinois, Mich

the balloon contains theao provisions:
One dozen sandwiches, two cold
chickens, two quarto of coffee In a
thermos bottle snd a quart of brandy.
