rWO LAWYERS ARE
JAILED FOR CONTEMPT
Attorneys Who Scented Release
of Man Judge Sent to Jail
Are Punished at
Syivester.
Sylvester, Ga., Feb. 2,—Claud
Payton and C. E. Hays, both
prominent attorneys of the Syl¬
vester bar, are in jail for a peri¬
od of ten days for contempt of
the supeiior court. They were
ordered imprisoned by Judge W
N. Spence after failing to pay
fines of $75 each imposed by the
court.
Payton and Hays represented
one Nipur, whose wife had sued
for divorce, and had been allowed
alimony by decree of the court.
This was not paid by Nipur, who
was arraigned before Judge
Spence for default. Judge Spence
sent him to jail under a contempt
order.
Nipur’s attorneys went before
tiie judge of the city court of
Worth county and secured a writ
of habeas corpus on which their
client was relased.
Judge Spence immediately had
Payton and Hays summoned be¬
fore him, and after a brief exam¬
ination', adjudged both attorneys
in contempt.
Payton is Worth county’s re¬
cently-elected representative in
the house of general assembly.
Hunting for Trouble.
t i I’ve lived in California 20
years, and am still hunting for

nica Salve won’t quickly cure,”

ghany, Sierra Co. No use hunt¬

One in Every Ninety Insane.
From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
Declaring that one person in
every ninety in Cook county is
mentally unsafe and require!
watching, the State Board of
Charities will on Friday present
its biennial to Gov. Danecn, in¬
dorsing the establishment at
Kankakee of a training school
for doctors employed in the dill'
erent detention hospitals in the
state.
While cook county contains a
larger number of persons liable
to insanity than any other part
of the state, tiie general average
for Illinois is one in every 100,
or a total of 58,000 persons who
are liable at any moment to be*
come insane.
The report of the state board,
vvhic w'as completed last evening,
states that the state institutions
for the insane are conducted too
much along the line of prisons,
and that the hospital side is not
sufficiently developed.
Franklin’s Simplified Spelling.
From a letter by Benjamiue
Fran k 1 in.
A gentleman once received a
letter in which were these words ;
“Not finding Brown at home,
I delivered your message to his
yf.”
The gentleman finding it bad
spelling, and therefore not being
very intelligible, called his lady
to help him read it. Between
them they picked out the mean¬
ing of all but the “yf,” which
they could riot understand. The
lady lady proposed proposed calling calling her her cham- chain
p, erm aid, “because Betty,” says
has the besfc knack 0 f read¬
ing bad spelling of any one I
know .»
Betty came and was surprised
^i ia ^.neither sir nor madam could
tell what “yf” was.
“\Vhy,” says she, “yf spelis
w j£ e . w h a t else can it spell?”
And indeed it is a much better
ag wel j as shorter method of
s p e ji ing w ife than doubleyou, i.

GEN. LEE ISSUES
REUNION ORDERS
Dale add Place Announced. Spon=
sor Question Mentioned.
General A. J. West, command¬
ing the Georgia division of the
United Confederate. Veterans,
and Colonel S. Colton Lynes, ad¬
jutant general, have received
general orders Nos. 59 and 60
from General Stephen D. Lee’s
headquarters, in New Orleans.
No. 60 is in regard to the ac¬
tion taken at tiie convention of
United Daughters of the Confed¬
eracy wheiHt was recommended
that the practice of appointing
•ponsors and maids by the United
Confederate Veterans be discon¬
tinued. In that it is a matter of
great moment and a radical de¬
parture from a long prevalent
custom it is ordered that every
officer and member carefully
study the question, In the early
history of the order there were
no sponsors appointed, but they
finally were a feature of every
reunion through the work of Gen¬
eral John B. Gordon an l Major
General George Moorman and
since then this has been a custom
intended as an honor to the de¬
scendants of the Women of the
Confederacy, The convention
held in New Orleans in 1903 rec
ognized the drift of the matter
in appointing so many sponsors
and the necessary outlay for their
entertainment, and passed a res¬
olution having in view r a curtail¬
ment of the custom. However,
the action of the U. 1), 0. made
so sudden and material change
(hat the commanding general
does not feel authorized to ac¬
cede wholly tu the request made
of him.
It is absolutely necessary, how¬
ever, that the expense of the
reunion cities should be reduced
and ho wishes it unnerstood that
the expenses for sponsors and
maids of honor must be borne by
those who make the appoint¬
ments.
In order No. 59, General Lee
announces the date and place for
the seventeenth annual reunion,
which will be held in Richmond
from May 30 to June 3,inclusive.
GEORGIA MAY HAVE
A BRIGADE POST
Favorable Report Is Made on
Proposed Garrison Post at
Fort Oglethorpe, Ga.
Washington, D. C,, Feb. 2.—
The report lias been received at
the war department of the spe¬
cial board of army officers who
were detailed to select land in
the neighborhood of Fort Ogle¬
thorpe, Ga., for use as a brigade
post and a maneuver ground.
The tract cost nearly a million
dollars. The board has obtained
the orations on certain lands,
which expire in March and July.
The report states:
“The board is of the opinion
that the portion of the tract ad¬
joining Fort Oglethorpe is well
suited for expansion into a bri¬
gade post with necessary grounds
for drills, ceremonies and ele¬
mentary instruction in extended
order.
“It is considered that this tract
is sufficiently large for a mixed
garrison, not to exceed three reg¬
iments. The board deems that
this other tract should be utilized
for working out problems involv¬
ing combined operations of all
arms and any number of troops
concentrated for maneuver pur
poses.
“The land is so situated that
in operating over it, it will be
necessary for the troops to remain
out over night. This is consider¬
ed an advantage, as it necessi¬
tates a closer approximation to
service conditions. This land is
well suited for the use intended.
It admits of all forms of tactical
operations.”
