The police had ra<her a peculiar case yesterday, and one that furnished consid erable amusement. During ng W. F. Maher, white, became engaged in a Tenderloin row and beat one of the inmates of Thelma Owens’ house, on Oglethorpe avenue. To forestall an ar rest, he went to the barracks and sur rendered himself, but was released on bond. La*or in the day Maher was spied by an officer who had just heard of the row and who proceeded to arrest him 'and take him to the barracks, although the man protested against the proceeding, stating that he had already given bond for bis appearance. When he reached the barracks, of course, he was liberated, and to avoid further mischances of the same sort the sergeant in charge gave him a signed memorandum stating the fa‘ts of th(* case, and which was to be used shouul he be approached again by any member of the force. This was n happy thought on the part of the ser geant and came in quite handy to Maher, who wns compelled to show his passport a number of times during the day to avoid being run in. How a Shrcml Negro Worked the Eclipse. * From the Galveston Daily News. Tyler, Tex., May 29.—Sunday night, wh !t negroes from several large planta tions in die eastern part of the county “ ere at church, a strange negro appear ed and told them that he had been told in a d;or.m that early the next morning a small black spot would appear on *the sm which would grow larger and larger • nttl finally the sun would become al most ob.-t ere. This, he explained, would be a sign of God’s displeasure at their siofut way- and of their miserly gifts to th - chuich and the poor, and that in liberal donations were not made to. ..pp -aso God’s wrath awful things would happen, lb furnished : member of each family with n darkened glass with In structions how to use It, and warned ihem in case the spot appeared <o lose no tinv in getting to church and to come prepared to make liberal gifts and to pray. The game, it is said, worked like a charm, and ns soon as the spot on the sun was observed the negroes hastened to the church with whatever small change they had. which was mrned over >o the strange negro. Shortly after the eclipse the negro left on his errand to distribute the gifts to the needy and has not been seen since in that section.

Wi| DiUlllS AGREE. - Recent investigations by the authorities of several States have ato* greeted attention to proprietary medicines, and there is a marked dispo. ■ition to draw a sharp line of distinction between mysterious nostrums and worthy articles of scientific compound and known character. “Many proprietary medicines,” says a leading physician, “are the best possible prescriptions for the A diseases which they are made to cure. It is certainly r\ •nly reasonable to expect that chemists of Jyfd&c—-f world-wide reputation arid unlimited re * Ammki I Sources ought to make compounds with excep- f Uonol skill, and It is manifestly to their in- / forest # to have their ingredients fresh and j pure. Take, for evample, Lippntan’s great y = ?V"''V: •* I remedy, popularly known as P. P. p. The formula is on every bottle. Every ,/ physician knows that the ingredients are ; : ' Vji ! the best possible remedies for purify- b - -f I Inc the blood, and the compound is /ra#•es£|wS j ■ scientific one, which increases the jFM'f 1 I efficiency of 1 the whole. I some- jj f times prescribe special mixtures f lor Blood Poisoning, Scrofulous j— ' *** ' 1 I Affections, Catarrh, Eczema and other Jy ! ? jj complaints arising from impure and weak 1L blood, but I always feel safest in prescribing P. P. P., especially wbera lam not personally acquainted with the druggist. In prescribing P. P. P. (Lippman’s Great Remedy),! know i am taking no chances.” When doctors feel such confidence in a standard remedy, it 1$ no wonder that the general public insis? upon having it. . P. P. P. is sold by al! druggists. $i a bottle; six betties, $5. LIPPriAN BROTHERS, up*MAN E oLock. Savannah, Ga FIRE PROOF SAFES, We carry the only line of Fire Proof Safes that are for sale in the State.
