Ball in Trover Proceedings Institu ted Against Him by Alii Morrison, a Desreputnble Woman of Ihe City, for Furniture Stored With Him by Her Sister Soe— Part of the Furniture Had Been Levied on anil Sold After the Sister’s Abrupt Departure From the City Last Year—l liable to Give Bond Air. Griffin Would Hare Gone to Jnlt Hut for the Order. Upon application by his attorney, A. S. Griilin, the defendant in an action of bail in trove-, instituted by Mil Morrison, was released from the custody of ihe sheriff of the City Court on yesterday afternoon, and an order was granted directing the plaintiff to show cause before Judge Nor wood why the ease should not lie dis missed. The ease exemplifies the hardships that may easily be inflicted by anyone who desires to take advantage of the action of hail in trover, hardships that would have resulted from the institution of the present proceeding, but for the kindness and courtesy of the sheriff and his offi cers. and the prompt action of Judge Nor wood. Mil and Sue Morrison are a couple of women of the tenderloin. Th© defendant in the bail in trover proceedings, is a re spectable business man of Savannah, though ho is of limited means. The facts in the case appear to be that last year, when ihe women were forced to move from their then abiding "place, by the po lice, they came to the conclusion that it would be wiser and better for them, if for a while, they shook th© dust of the city entirely from their feel, and this they determined to do. Having then no use for the furniture which had been used in their house. Sue Morrison had it stored with Mr. Griffin, who is in the. furniture storage business. She entered into a contract with him for the storage of the furniture and had it Insured with a loehl firm of insurance agents for SI,OOO. Then, presumably, she and her sister left Savannah. At any rate they were not heard of in police circles for number of months, a test that af fords reasonable satisfactory evidence that, they were not in the city. As soon as their creditors heard of the women s departure from the city they sued out garnishments and atiaetaments against every one who they believed owed the women anything or had any goods of theirs in his possession. Among the de fendants in attachment was Mr. Griffin. His answer to the attachment showed that the goods that he held had been left in his possession by Sue Morrison and that he had known nothing of Mit in the trans action. Under an order of a justice’s court, regularly and legally obtained, the goods in his possession were levied upon for the debts of the sisters, were advertised and enough of them to satisfy the claims of the creditors were eo’d. Lai ly Mli Morrison and possibly her sister re’tirncd to Ihe city, and one of ihe first acts of Mit was to institute an ac tion of bail in trover aga nst Mr. Grif fin. In this she alleged ihat he had in his possession furniture tx long ng to her and amounting in value to $2,f00. She assert ed that the rent on the furniture for the time he had had it in his possession was well worth S3OO and petitioned ihe court to allow her that sum, also over and abeve the value of the arXcles she claimed. The law rigulating the action of ball in trov r pr tides that the def ndant in such a proceeding shall either produce the ar ticles for which the action is instituted, give bond for twice th' amount of their value, for their forthcoming to answer the final deciee of the court or go to jail. Mr. Griffin was not in a position to com ply with but one of th se requirements. Some of the articles for which the ac tion had been brought had been levied on and sold under the executions Issuing from the justice's court in favor of the credi tors of the two women. Mr. Griffin is a man of limited means and not able to give bond for twice the alleged value of the furniture and Its rental, so that all that he could do, under the strict letter of the low, was to go to jail. By the courtesy of the court officers, Mr. Grif fin was permitted to be at liberty on his own recognizance until yesterday after noon, when a hearing was had before Judge Norwood and the facts were made to appear to the court by Mr. W. F. Slai ter. representing the defendant. Under this showing Judge Norwood granted an order direeling that the de fendant be permitted to continue at lib erty until Monday and that at noon of that day the plaintiff be required to show cause why the privilege should not be his indefinitely. Had the defendant been less well known in the community and the officers of the court, for this reason, at all doubtful as to his good faith in ob serving the promise to appear promptly at the time set for th© hearing, he would have been languishing in jail since the day the bail in trover proceeding was first issued. —An Offer to Be Considered.—“ What's that message from Aguinaldo?"

Atlanta, June 20,—The promised sweep ing investigat on of the poll ’© department clos.d o-night, and thus far no eijd-nce has been adduced except against Chief of Police Manley, the most damaging of which is that ho refused to abate a nuisance when directed to do so, and that ho has been grossly negligent in beir.g absent from his post of duty.

"BEAU” BLAKE. Tlie Graphic Story a Texan Tells About the Irish Brigade Com mander. From the New Orleans Tlmes-Democral. "I know 'Buck' Blake, or "Beau’ Blake, as some call him, who Is now in com mand of the Irish Brigade with the Boers," said a Texas man the other even ing. “He had been a cowboy, and at the time I made his acquaintance was inter ested with a Kentuckian named Harvey Watson in a horse ranch south of Brownsville. He was a big. good-natur ed. powerful fellow, wilh humorous Irish blue eyes and a small, sandy mustache. Although he had no record as a 'bad man,’ it was pretty well understood that he had plenty of sand and could take care of himself in an emergency. I saw that fully demonstrated one night at Fort Worth. He was in town on some busi ness, and, happening to walk into a big bar attached to a gambling house then famous throughout tilts Southwest, en countered a cattleman, named Ew Arm strong, with whom he had had some dif ficulty over a stock brand. “Armstrong had the reputation of be ing a 'killer,' and as soon as he saw Illake he reopened the old quarrel. Blake replied to his remarks good-humoredly, but he became more and more insulting, and finally whipped out a six-shooter and leveled it at the Irishman's head. 'Now, you hound!' he roared, 'I want you to tell the whole house that you're a liar.' "The action was so sudden that Blake had no time to defend himself, but he never turned a hair. ‘Aw, put that thing away,' he said, laughingly. Then, look ing over Armstrong’s shoulder, he added, as if speaking to somebody behind him; 'lt's all right, Harvey; he’s only kid ding.’ "Thinking that Blake's partner, Wat son, had entered the place and was then In his rear, the desperado Instantly wheel ed around. As he did so the big Irish man hit him a crushing blow under the ear and knocked him fully a dozen feet. His revolver flew out of his hand as he fell and exploded harmlessly in the air, and before he could recover his senses Blake was on his chest with his hands on his throat. "That ended the row anil made an ever lasting impression on my mind. By the way, Blake got his nickname of ’Beau’ from a favorite expression of his while a cowboy. On Sundays he used to ‘beau up, as he called it, to visit some girls on an adjoining ranch. ’Beauing up’ con sisted of shaving and taking hfs trous ers out of his boots.” Importance of Flat Trajectory. From the Fortnightly Review. Trajectory, as every one will know, i* the curve described bj’ the bullet between the muzzle of the rifle and the point where It strikes the ground or the object aimed at. A flat trajectory is Important for three reasons: It Insures within cer tain limits, which It is unnecessary to enumerate, a long range; it insures a wider death-dealing belt or zone of dan ger, for not only is there greater proba bility of hitting by direct fire an object of given high!, but a bullet having a flat trajectory, after striking the ground at a less angle than one having a high trajec tory, will probably ricochet further an 1 tiave thus more chances of hitting an en emy; and. thirdly, and most importantly, a flat trajectory is desirable because mis takes In judging distances do not militate to the same Important extent against suc cess In hitting the object aimed at. One example will make this plain. Say Tommy wnnis to hit an enemy who is. he thinks, VOOO yards from him, hut who really Is only 900 yards off Mistakes of under or over-estimating distances by 100 yards, even the most expert marksman In til world well constantly make, at ranges be yond 700 or SOO yards. And the British soldier. It must no* be forgotten, Is nar tlcularly apt to make far worse errors In this respect, for the Instruction ho re ceives In Judging distances is far inferior to that which Is insisted upon In all the continents! arml-w. Were he to be armed with the Msrtlnl-Heivry. with Its muzzle velocity of only 1,300 feet per eecond, against 2,000 feet of the present scrvl a rifle, he would overshoot his mark by more than 21 feet. With the Lee-Met ford, on the other hand, which, as one result of the greater muzzle velocity, has a much flitter trajectory, the bullet would pass not more than eleven feet over the point aimed at. This elementary illus tration will demonstrate how Important It Is in war that rifles should nave in flat • trajectory aa possible, with due regard lawn WE ARE ABLE & READY TO PLEASE YOU.
