life boats on the beach. STATE I/AW PROVIDES PENALTY for failure to provide them. Pi opr I e tor* of Doardtog Houses anl Hotels on the Sracoaat, Where Bathhonseß for Purposes of Surf- Bathing Are - Maintained, Mint Keep Lifeboat* or Raft*, Fully F.qolpped and in Plain Sight, in lane of Bmergcaolfß AgooV Browning Bring* \p the Subject. 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. CUlcr.
