Material Chan area in Speeille Tax
Made by Last Leuislatare.
Ho , v Some of These -Meet People
of Savannah.
A number of changes have been made in
the specific tax laws of the state by the
enactments of the last General Assem
bl> d nd it is quite possible that some
of (hose who are effected by these
c hanges, unless they give them good he,ed, <
■nill awake some morning to find them
eelves in a very unfortunate prediea
merit.
T penalties for the violation of these
laws are not changed, but in themselves
tney are sufficiently
quired that anyone engaged in one of the
occupations upon which 'the state levies
a specific tax shall register hie name with
tii. clerk of the Court of Ordinary, and
pay the amount of the tax before he
begins to do business. The penalties for
failtue to observe these requirements are
the addition of interest and costs to the
amount of the tax In case it is collected
by execution and punishment of the de
faulter, upon conviction on the criminal
side of the court, as for a misdemeanor.
That is to say that any one who does
business of one of the classes upon which
a specific tax is levied, without register
ing with the ordinary and paying the
amount of the tax to the tax collector,
is guilty of a misdemeanor, and liable
upon conviction to be sentenced to pay
a hue of SI,OOO and costs, serve six months
in the coun'ty jail, and twelve months on
the chaingang, either 01 all, or any part
of either or all, in the discretion of the
trial court.
It is probable that hundreds of persons
in the city of Savannah will have become
liable to such a punishment before they
read this cJopy of the Morning News to
day. They are dealers in cigarettes and
cigarette papers.
Under the old low it was not an offense
to give away cigarette papers with pack
ages of tobacco, without registering or
paying the specific tax of ar dealer in cig
arettes, but under the new law, to give
the papers away is just as much a mis
demeanor. This provision makes practi
cally every man in Savannah who sells
tobacco liable for the specific tax and sub
ject to the penalties in case he does not
register and pay it.
Moreover, the tax has been increased
from $5 per annum to $lO. With the fee
for registration this makes every cigar
rette dealer pay to the state sll a year,
and as, since the consolidation of most of
the cigarette manufacturers and the im
position of the United States war revenue
tax upon the product, there is little profit
for the retailer in their sale, it is prob
able that a good many of the dealers wili
go out of the business.
The tax on dealers in and repairers of
bicycles has also been changed. In the
past the state collected a specific tax of
SIOO from every manufacturer doing busi
ness in Georgia, and none from the in
dividual agents and dealers.
When the spirit of the times begad to
get in its work with the manufacturers of
bicycles, they organised themselves into
a trust and the-old manner of taxation
brought into the state treasury only a
very few hundred dollars. The legislature
has now changed the provision and the
manner of taxation, and every dealer in
bicycles or repairer is liable to a specific
tax of $lO per annum. The dealer or re
pairer, like others who are required to
pay specific taxes, must register with
the ordinary and pay the amount of the
tax to the tax co! ector cf the county.
It is probable that'Georgia will have a
larger number of circuses in 1901 than it
had in 1900, for the specific taxes for their
display in this state have been cut ex
actly in half. Under the new law. when
a circus exhibits in or near a city of more
than 20,000 inhabitants, it must pay a
specific tax of $.100; in or near towns of
between 5,000 and 20,000 population, it will
pay a tax of $200; in or near towns of be
tween 4,000 and .1,000, a tax of $150; in or
near towns of less than 4.000, a tax Of
SIOO. The low provides that if a circus
give a parade in a town or city, for pur
poses of advertisement, but gives no per
formance, it must pay a tax of SSCO for the
privilege.
it has not been the practice of the
tax collector of Chatham county to en
force rigorously the rather harsh provis
ions of the laws regulating the payment
of specific taxes. There are many, even
now, who are liable, tinder the terms of
the law, to arrest and imprisonment. w T ho,
in all probability, will not be disturbed.
It is understood that within a reasonable
time they will come up and register and
pay the tax. Their case is different, how
ever, from that of those persons who will
fully seek to evade the law and avoid
the payment of taxes. As long as they
are able to pursue this course undetected,
It is all right, but If they should be so
unfortunate as to be caught, as some of
them were only a short time ago. they
will have to pay the tax or go to jail. It
is only through the consideration of the
tax collector that they are given this
choice. The law does not give it.
FELL FROM THE MIZZENMAST.
Norwegian Sailor Killed on (lie linrk
Fauna.
The body of a Norwegian sailor lad
named Kareand Toleasen was brought
from quarantine yesterday morning and
turned over to Coroner Goette for burial.
The boy fell from the mizzenmast of the
Norwegian bark Paazaa. at sea Friday
afternoon, and was killed instantly. His
head struck the cabin and the young
sailor did not speak after the fatal fall.
The ship’s officers say that he was mak
ing a piece of rigging fast in a stir wind,
when he lost his balance and tumbled to
his doom. The bark reached quarantine
Sunday and the body was sent to the city
early yesterday morning and turned over
to Undertaker Goette for burial.
Toleasen was only 16 years of age and
Mas a native of Norway. His father was
the ship's carpenter, and was only a few
feet away when the young man tel! The
bark had tar.en a mixed cargo to South
America and was returning with ballast.
The sailor's funeral took place at 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon and the inter
ment was In (aiurel Grove Cemetery. The
casket was wrapped In a Norwegian flag
and the futu rul services were performed
by Mr. Iverson of the Seamen's Bethel.

li lias Happened
More than once that a child has been
carried off by an eagle. When such
a thing does happen the press rings
with the story. There’s not a line
given by the press to the babies car
ried off daily by disease. It isn’t the
fact of the child being taken away
that is startling or interesting, it’s
only when the method of taking off
is novel that it excites interest. How
many children die who might have
been saved if the mother who bore
them had been able to give them
strength and vitality. Dr. Pierce’s
Favorite Prescription makes healthy
mothers and healthy mothers have
healthy children, strong enough to
resist disease if they are attacked.
Mrs. Axel Kjer, of Gordonville, Cape Gir
ardeau Cos., Mo. writes: "When I took at my
little boy I feel it my duty to write to you.
This is my fifth child and the only one who
came to maturity; the others having died
from lack of nourishment—so the doctor
said. This time I just thought I would try
your ' Prescription.’ I took nine bottles and ,
to wiy surprise it carried me through and
gave us as fine a little boy as ever was.
Weighed ten and one-half pounds. He is
now five months old, has never been sick a
day, and is so strong that everybody who
sees him wonders at him.”
Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets keep
the bowels healthy and regular.
DR. WILSON SAYS ITS FALSE.
Difficulty Between Geo. S. McAlpin
ami President of E. C. Powiler Cos.
The New York Herald of Sunday con
tained a rather sensational account of an
attack on Capt. A. W. Money, president
of the E. C. Powder Company, and one
of the best known trap shooters in this
country, by Mr. George S. McAlpin, for
merly of Savannah, and 1 well known hero.
The trouble grew out of differences as to
the handicapping of matches in the Car
teret Gun Club, of which Mr. McAlpin
is handicapper.
It seems from the Hera'.d account that
Capt. Money had written the Governors
of the Carteret Club, asking that the
club be relieved of the one-man power
in handicapping. He claimed that with
Mr. McAlpin as handicapper and also as
a competitor, the members—he particu
larly—were under a disadvantage in (the
various club competitions. He
asked that the committee be en
larged or that Mr. McAlpin be requested
not to compete in the events for which
he set the marks.
The inference is that in an indirect way
Copt. Money charged Mr. McAlpin with
handicapping the matches in his own
interest. Mr. McAlpin, accompanied by
Dr. F. C. Wilson, went to Capt. Money’s
office, and according to the Herald, de
manded that he retract the contents of
his letter to the Carteret Club. Capt.
Money replied that his ’etter had been
placed in the hands of the Club Governors
and the matter was beyond his control.
Mr. McAlpin then struck Capt. Money,
fracturing his cheek bone. The account
in the Herald is made up wholly from
statements by Capt. Money’s friends.
Mr. H. E. Wilson received a telegram
from his brother. Dr. Wiison. yesterday,
saying that the account of the difficulty
reported in the Herald is untrue. Further
statement of the affair from Mr. McA!-
pin's side is expected in the Herald to
day. oavannahians, who know Mr. Me-
Aipin, and there are few who lived in
Savannah when he was here who did not
know him. do not believe that he attack
ed Capt. Money without extreme provoca
tion. Dr. Wilson, who was with M’.
McAlpin at the time of the trouble, It
Is expected, will clear up the matter on
his return home.
CAUGHT IN THE ACT.
4 Burglar Captured W hile Trying to
Enter n I’nrlc Avenue Houxe.
Elijah Slater, colored, was arrested yes
terday morning about 5 o’clock while try
ing to enter the home of Mr. A. H. Lane,
No. 220 I’ark avenue, east. The man was
caught in the very act by Patrolman Um
bach. After the arrest the prisoner threw
away something, but refused to tell the
officer what it was. Umbach thinks that
it was a key, or several of them, with
which he was trying to open the lock of
the door when he was arrested.
Mr. Lane knew nothing of the matter
until after the prisoner had been sent to
the barracks, when the patrolman waked
him to tell him of the affair.
Slater was heard before the Recorder
and was remanded to the City Court on
the charge of carrying concealed weapons
and also attempted burglary.
HE HEARS STRANGE NOISES.
Hamilton lladdai Committed to .lull
on n Cliurgc of Lunacy.
Hamilton Maddox was committed to jail
yestct day on a warrant for lunacy sworn
out in the Court of Ordinary against him
by Michael J Brignoni. A hearing in his
case will probably be had within the next
few days. „
Maddox is troubled with the hallucina
tion that he hears strange noises and is
constantly overhearing plots for the de
struction of everybody in Savannah. He
is the son of Capt. Thomas Maddox, a
well-known Confederate veteran, who died
some months ago.
TO ENLARGE THE BUSINESS.
The Livingston Pharmacies to Bea
Partnership.
Mr. Henry H. Livingston, proprietor of
Livingston's Pharmacy, corner Bull and
Congress streets and of the De Soto Phar
macy, has associated with him Mr. Isa
n well known business man, enjoying on
exL'neive acquaintance throughout this
p in of the country and Is a desirable ac
quisition to the business citizenship of
Savannah. These well known concerns,
heretofore conducted by Mr. H. H. Liv
ingston. have been prosperous and are now
flourishing, and with the life injected into
them by the new partner they are bound
to get an impetus which will place them
among the foremost pharmacies of the
South. The location of both drug stores
Is splendid.
