Yoniig Man Telia an Old Story With
Vow Variations at Police Head
|unrter— Mot a “Friend” Who
Wanted to Take Him Down to
Look Over the Riser—There Have
Been Gold Brick Sales, Green
Goods Transactions, Mat—
Winter winds may blow and nipping
frosts may fall, but there is still some
thing green left in the rural landscape
to brighten the eye and gladden the
senses —so muses the smooth gent with
a slick scheme for the delighted eye of
the bucolic citizen.
Chapter I.
In a story which has been oft repeat
ed, finds Mr. W. R. Twight of a
neighboring hamlet. Just departed
from the covered cars which had con
veyed him to Savannah to tend some
matters for another fellow, or two and
see what is agoing on in the city.
Besides the three hard dollars with
which Mr. Twight has been intrusted
tn deliver safely into the hands of a
wholesale whisky dealer, taking a re
,-eipt therefor, he has packed twen
ty-five other odd simoleons away in
his own buckskin purse with which to
circumvent a very large time In the
t;ty.
Mr. Twight is true to his trust In
the $3 matter. He goes to the whole
sale dealer’s place of business, pays
the other fellow’s bill, receives his re
ceipt and departs. He tucks the re
ceipt safely away in his buckskin
purse, and In doing so flashes some of
the frog backs which he had concealed
therein.
The wise guy just passing is on in a
minute.
According to Mr. Twight’s one in
nocent statement at police headquar
ters he is standing at Bull and Brough
ton streets when some gentleman ap
proaches him, and seem to know him.
"He asked me if I lived here,” says
Mr. Twight. “I told him that X did
not. He said he lived In South Caro
lina. We got to talking and he asked
me if I had ever seen the river. I told
him many a time. He then asked me
to show him the way down to the
river. We went down to the edge of
the water.”
CHAPTER 11.
Mr. Twight and his gentleman friend
stand close by the water’s edge. Sud
denly a stranger appears and asks the
loan of a knife. Mr. Twight’s friend
pulls one out, which the stranger is
unable to open. Mr. Twight then
obliges with his buck horn handle and
barlow blade. The stranger finishes
sharpening his pencil, thanks Mr.
Twight and starts away. The gentle
man friend then explains to Mr.
Twight how hard it’ is to open the
mysterious little knife. Mr. Twight
masters the intricacies of the opera
tion in a moment.
In some way the stranger discovers
that the knife works with a spring,
and he returns to the couple, saying:
"Ah, ha, (not fiercely, but softly) I see
that is a trick knife. I can open it
now.” Suiting the actions to the words
he makes an attefript with the knife.
He fails to open it. Mr. Twight is
overcome with elation at his superior
accomplishment. The stranger wor
ries along until he finally works him
self into a passion. The knife has
locked itself and cannot* be opened.
He is willing to bet that it cannot.
Mr. Twight is sure he can open it.
Has he not just tried his own skill,
and does he not know just how the
trick is done? His friend has only $25.
Will he put up $25 more against the
stranger's SSO? Mr. Twight is careful,
and says he has no money. He Is
jeered at by his city friends who can
not believe that such a prosperous
looking gentleman should be without
money. They suggest that he is a fake.
Mr. Twight grows indignant, then
flashes the purse. His new found friend
seizes the money and says he will go
to such length as to bet that Mr.
Twight himself cannot open the knife.
Mr. Twight is supremely confident,
grasps the small knife, tugs at the
spring and the blade until his usually
rubicund visage is flaming. The strang
er counts ten. but the blade will not
budge.
CHAPTER 111.
Mr. Twight is being roundly abused
by his new found friend. Had he
not permitted a stranger to come up
and carry off SSO in hard dash, be
longing jointly to the pair? He is an
ass. and does not deserve money.
“Now we will have to fix that fellow
ami make him give us our money
h U'k,” the friend says, “You go that
way and I’ll go this way. When you
see him make him cough up.” Tfiey
parted.
CHAPTER IV.
Mr. Twight explains that he believes
from the way the young man reached
for his money they were not on the
square, and he wants them arrested
for taking his money and betting it in
such a reckless manner.

ADniTIONAL CLERK
BEGINS HIS DUTIES.
Others Atilt Go On as Demand Cnlts
for Them at Postolllee.
Postmaster Blun put on duty yester
day morning one of the additional men
allowed him during the holiday sea
son.
The man takes a clerk’s position to
and in the handling of the mails and
the other routine work within the of
fice. No extra carriers have yet been
assigned to duty, though it is prob
able some will be put into service to
day or to-morrow. Others will be add
ed as it is found they are needed.
As has been stated heretofore in the
Morning News the law allows the Sa
vannah postmaster to increase his
force during the holiday rush by three
clerks and seven carriers. The car
riers may work for a total of thirty
five days and because of this limited
time allowed the men are put on only
as they are absolutely needed, in order
that their services may be extended
over as great a period as possible.
The work at the office is constant
ly increasing. There was a line before
both the postoffice, money-order win
dow and before the registry window
during the entire day yesterday and
the clerks in these departments were
constantly busy. There was also a
constant line of people passing to and
from the stamp-window and the malls
are largely increased.
The rush is expected to continue un
til after the beginning of the New
Year, when the mails will decrease to
their normal size.
DAVIS ARRESTED AND
PLACED IN CONFINEMENT.
Delivery to Authorities Delayed by
Lack of Clothing.
Herbert Davis, the young man who
is supposed to have turned on gas with
a view to killing himself on the morn
ing of Dec. 12, was arrested at the
Savannah Hospital yesterday after
noon and carried to police headquar
ters, to await an investigation of the
charges against him.
Davis was detained at the hospital
several hours after the arrest was
made because he had no clothing to
wear to police headquarters. When he
was carried to the hospital he had
on his underclothing and a pair of
trousers. A blanket was thrown around
him, and his other clothes left behind.
These were sent for, and the officer
waited while he was dressed. Davis’
brother-in-law is in the city, and is
making an effort to secure bail for
him.
The woman who was with Davis at
the time both narrowly missed asphyx
iation has not yet been discharged
from the Park View Sanitarium, and
the case against the young man will
not be investigated until the doctors
decide she Is able to attend court. E.
H. Abrahams, Esq., has been retained
by the defense and will represent Davis
at the preliminary examination.

not always correctly understood; tn
many cases when doctoring, they are
led to believe that womb trouble or
female weakness of some sort is re
sponsible for their ills, when in fact
disordered kidneys are the chief cause
of their distressing troubles. Perhaps
you suffer almost continually with
pain in the back, bearing-down feel
ings, headache and utter exhaustion.
