Theory of Suicide Given no Cred
ence—Funeral of Tufortnnnte Man
Attended by H. G. H. Society.
The drowning of Don Agoos, at Tybee,
Sunday afternoon, was the subject of
much talk yesterday. The opinion was
expressed that, had a lifeboat or raft been
in readiness on the beach, the accident
roulJ have been prevented.
Fata.l accidents of the character of that
occurring on Sunday happen nearly every
year. Safe enough when the tide is flow
ing, the beach easily becomes dangerous
when the difficulties of the bather are in
creased by a strong current, an ebb tide
end an undertow. With these present in
conjunction, it taken a strong and skilful
swimmer to extricate himself from the
dangers that impend when he has once got
beyond his depth.
The Legislature of Georgia, impressed
with the danger, has provided for life-sav
ing apparatus at each point where bath
ing suits are to let. making it the duty of
•very proprietor of a hotel or boarding
house and the keeper of every bath house
to such apparatus in readiness for
emergencies. Section 509 of the Criminal
Code says:
“The proprietor or keeper of every ho
tel. boarding house or other public house
or bath house on the sea coast, where
the public may resort for the purposes of
surf-bathing. shall at all times, during
the surf-bathing season, keep and main
tain at their respective establishments,
in full view and accessible to bathers and
guests of such house, a suitable and sea
worthy lifeboat or liferaft, fully equipped
with oars, oarlocks, life preservers and
life buoys, and mourned upon a proper
wheeled carriage, which boat or raft
shall be kept at all times ready for in
stant use, in case of emergencies to
bathers requiring the use thereof; and in
default of complying with tine provisions
cf this section, such proprietor or keeper
*hall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and in
addition to the penalty for such offense,
he phall not hove the right to collect any
charge or debt from any guest of such
house, the consideration of which is board,
lodging or other service, rendered such
guest by the proprietor or keeper during
%he surf bathing season.”
80 fftr as is known, there is not a
lifeboat or raft maintained along
the beach at Tybee, so that with each
day the proprietor ,of every public bath
ing house becomes liable to punishment
os for a misdemeanor, the penalty for
which, upon conviction, is a fine of SI,OOO,
imprisonment on the chaingang for twelve
months and imprisonment in the public
jail of the county for six months, either
or all, in the discretion of the court.
Furthermore, the guests of every one of
the hotels or boarding houses,
where bathing houses are maintain
ed. and the provisions of the law pro
viding for the keeping of life boats or
rafts and appliances are violated, owe
nothing to the proprietors of these hotels
ot boarding houses thnt can be collected
b\ an action at law'. The law says that
one of the penalties for failing to k*ep life
saving appliances within easy ieaci in
case of emergencies shall be the inability
of ihe proprietor to collect the board bills
due him by his guests.
It was stated yesterday that an aciion
would be begun by the widow of the man
drowned on Sunday to recover damages
for the death of her husband. Such an
action could, of course, be defeated by
showing that he death of A goes was due
to his own carelessness or negligence, but
such carelessness or negligence on the
part of the unfortunate man who lost his
life, cannot effect the question of the guilt
of the misdemeanor, for failure 10 pro
vide life-saving appliances and keep them
in plain view' and ready for emergencies
on the beach.
I’pon the examination of the clothes of
the dead man a slip of paper with some
writing in Hebrew characters was found
in the band of his hat. This pajier was
turned over to Coroner Goette who got
Mr. Jonathan Stern to translate it. It
read* hs follows: “You are trifling with
your life and health, better die than
v..ai seen snould happen. Take an ex
ample from people who have become un
happy. and of them you should take warn
ing. He who goes through fire wilt be
consumed.”
The writing was upon an uneven scrap
of yellow paper, which had been worn In
the hat band long enough to be stained
with the die from the band.
With this paper as a basis the story was
star;ed that Agoos had committed suicide
and in a short time it gained wide cur
rency among persons who were unaware
of the. facts of the mans death. Among
the dead man's friends the idea of such
on act on his part as suicide was poou
poohed. Why, they argued, should a man
who intends taking his life take his two
►mall children along with him. or after
realizing that he was in danger cry out
for as did Agoos.
The theory as to the paper, advanced
by one of his friends, and which found
general credence is that the writing is
tner#ly a copy from a poem or other ’-
tide that may have been found in some
Hebrew paper of which it i said Agoos
subscribed to quite a number. Coroner
Goette’s opinion of the matter is that the
mnn died of apoplexy and this opinion is
shored by the majority of the persons who
•tssisted in the efforts to resuscitate Agoos
•fter he had been brought on the beach.
i ne funeral look place yesterday after
noon at 4 o’clock from Bryan and Mont
gomery streets. The burial was made in
the Jewish burying ground at Laurel
Grove Cemetery.
The H. G. H., a Jewish benevolent socie
ty to which the deceased belonged, turnrd
out in a body, meeting at Metropolitan
Hall and going thence to the house eighty-
Mx strong, under the direction of President
J Weifler.
The pallbearers were Messrs. George
I*ewin, j. Stark. I. Levi, A. Rundbaken,
I Gottlieb and M. Blumenthal.
GEORGIA CENTRAL. INCOMES.
An Opinion Thnt They Are a. Good
Invest uient.
BtlKor Savannah Morning' Sow?: Many
V*ars ago h gentlemen of New York city
owned 100,000 of Jersey Central stock and
l f|f '.ooo United States Government bon.te.
Jersey began to sag and by degrees sank
,0 $7 per share. An assessment of $lO per
"hare was called, which he paid, never
toeing faith in hie Judgment and the as-
of hia friend, the president, that
t,r ne would rehabilitate- the value of
his investment. He lived to sell his stock
®Mln at 136. To-day it Is quoted at 130.
A brilliant engineer and railroad pro
jector, the father of our esteemed fellow
•tiien General Gordon, conceived the
1 '**a of building the Central Railroad. The
Majority of people were enthused with
his magnetiem and subscribed to the capl
stock, hoping for the best. Among
fhem the late Mr. George B. Gumming
subscribed for fifty shares. This gentle
n)an he never expected any dividends.
Ae he had mode this statement publicly—
although dividend after dividend woe de
clared—he never collected them until the
accumulation of said dividends amounted
fo the orignal subscription or, if memory
"•rvet me correctly, more than the origi
nal $6,000. The books of the Central how-
senption.” It cures female weakness and
diseases of the delicate organs which
undermine woman’s strengui and mar
her beauty. It makes weak women
6trong, sick women well.
Mrs. W. J. Kidder, of Hill Dale Farm (Enos
burg Center), Enosburg. Vt., writes: "Your
kindly advice and medicines have brought me
great relief. During the past year I found
pregnant and in rapidly failing health.
* erc d dreadfully from bloating ana urinary
difficulty. I was growing weaker each dav and
suffered much sharp pain at times. I felt that
something must be done. I sought your advice
and received a prompt reply. I took twelve
bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, and
also followed your instructions. I began to im
prove immediately, my health became excel
lent, and I could ao all my own work (we live
on a good sired farm). I walked and rode all I
could, and enjoyed it. I had a short, easy con
finement, and have a healthy baby boy."
Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets cure foul
breath, by curing its cause.
ever, can prove if the statement is a fact.
The Central of Georgia is controlled, by
Mr. J. P. Morgan of New’ York, through
Mr. Sam Spencer of the Southern Railroad
Company. The board of directors is elect
ed by the five millions of stock which also
dictates the president and other officers.
In the opinion of the writer, Mr. Mor
gan as well as Mr. Spencer are surprised
at the vitality that Prill exists in the Cen
tral of Georgia and have changed their
policy.
They feel that gross injustice has been
done the junior security holders and
hence this year and in future this class
of property wrill be treated justly. An
other strong argument is that the junior
security holders have determined to as
sert their rights, if necessary, through the
United States Court and the Georgia
Legislature—both strong arguments.
I cay with candor have hope, my fellow
citizens. To prove my faith, had I $300.-
000 to invest to-day, I wrould not hesitate
to put $150,000 In first incomes at 45-00,
2nd* at 3ds o@7. Let time prove if
I would err. James Hunter.
4S BEFORE THE RECORDER.
Five flinrged With Assault With In
tent to Murder.
Forty-eight prisoners faced the Recorder
when he opened court yesterday morning.
Of these five were held on a charge of
assault with intent to murder.
Scott Ready, who was arrested several
days ago on a. charge of attempting to kill
Willie Holmes, but whose case, was con
tinued until yesterday, was turned over to
the Superior Court. To the same court,
also, was remanded Henry Ralph on a
charge of assault with Intent to murder
Bristow Hunter.-
The. cases of G. T. Lockhart and Steve
Kirkland, each charged with assault with
intent to murder the other were continued,
and so was the. case of R. Young, who is
charged by Willie Baoqt> with having
made, an assault with intent to murder
upon him.
The case of Austin Rvan-. charged with
having broken Into the bar of the Alpha,
was- continued.
Lawrence Screven, who snatched a
pecketbook in the vicinity of the market,
was ad judged guilty of highway robbery
and turned over to the City Court.
Violet Williams, otherwise known as
Apron Mary, was arrested the night be
iore on a eharge of being drunk and dis
orderly; to this the further charge of va
grancy was added and she was turned
over io the City Court. Mary is a regu
lar offender and has been in the Barracks
so often that being arrested seems- to have
no terror* for her. Doubtless on the pres
ent charge she will be effectually dispos
ed of for some time to corse.
G. A. McDaniel, Thomas Herb, Cuthbert
Herb. William Flaherty, and J. A. Van
bergen, five white men who had been ar
rested the night before by Officer M. Davis
on a charge of pulling down the stoop of
the house of Irene Ponder were given tiie
option of $5 e??h or ten days in the lock
up. Each paid his fine.
Peter Blair, charged with the theft of
n mule from Hubert Keller, was remanded
ro the City Court on a charge of simple
larceny.
Took a Look at the Cro,,„.
Mr. H.B. Lemoke of the PetcrsCartridge
Company has just returned from a trip
through North and South Carolina. From
conversations he had with many mer
chants and farmers in those states he says
crop prospects were never brighter. To
bacco is doing well everywhere, and while
the cotton crop is damaged in some places,
in others an excellent yield is promised.
Altogether, he says, both states have
promise of an unusually prosperous busi
ness season.
