they violate the law. tho*k WHO give %W%Y C-IGA kEI., K papers with tobacco. They Have Registered anfl ~n l d the Specific Tax Exacted by state From Healer* In Csrb ette*, They Are Guilty of a Misde meanor and Snbject to Fine and imprisonment— Many Have I’rol.a bl \ tainted the Uw Innoeently. 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. ( AI.A VI HE mum;e officers.

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.
