The grand jury began immediately
upon the transaction of criminal bus
iness after the court’s charge.
The Charge.
In his address to the grand jury the
court said:
“Mr. Foreman and Gentlemen of
the Grand Jury: It is an ancient cus
tom, on the organization of a body like
yours, for the judge to attempt some
portrayal of the significant duty the
grand jury has been selected to per
form. This, however, is not always
essential. If the grand jury is select
ed from those who already know their
duties, as grand jurors, and the rights
of the citizens which may he involved,
and they will perform the one, and
maintain the other, exhortation from
the judge would seem unnecessary.
I surely cannot be in error in the be
lief that you are men of this class.
For nearly the life of a generation in
the Southern District of Georgia, the
most jjuixious effort has been made to
assemble jurors who have the highest
conception of duty. Nowhere have
these efforts been crowned with
greater success, than in the counties
of this, the Northeastern Division of
this district. It is indeed peopled by
the ancient American and Anglo-
Saxon stock. A race, which while all
others were submissive to despotism,
has been itself, submissive only to law.
There is scarcely a name on your roll
which will not be found on she roster
of Washington's ‘ragged Continentals,
fearing not.’ The names of your coun
ties are emblematic of the devotion
of your people to liberty and law.
Warren, bears the name of that young
hero who fell at Bunker Hill, and with
expiring breath exclaimed: ‘Dulce et
decorum est pro patria mori”; Burke,
of the illustrtou ; statesman and phil
osopher, friend of Reynolds, Gold
smith, Johnson, Garrick and Pitt, and
more than all the friend of liberty.
Another county is honored by the
name of the father of his country, and
a beautiful city, famous for the in
dependence, the integrity, and the cul
ture of its people, bears the same
name, which was ' bestowed long be
fore, when the first American, a young
officer of Virginia riflemen, at Rrad
dock's defeat, saved the remnant of
his comrades from the tomahawk and
scalping knife of the Indians. An
other noble county bears the illus
trious name of the sage of Monticello,
and the author of the Declaration of
Independence. But need I further ac
count the bead-roll of the illustrious
from whom memories your homes and
traditions can never be disjoined? I
cannot doubt that men through whose
hearts pulsates the blood undefiled, of
those patriots who made our liberty
possible, will surely enforce our laws,
by which alone such liberty can be
conserved, and here ever enlarging is
that duty, ever wider and wider the
horizon to which the vigilant inquest
of the grand juries in these courts,
must extend.
Laws Relative to Commerce.
“Laws relating to commece between
the hundred millions who inhabit
these American states and those of
foreign lands, unknown a few years
ago, are now as familiar to us as the
meagre code enacted by the first con
gress. To illustrate: The people of
these Southern states have ever been
the strictest constructionists, of the
powers of congress, and yet from the
enactment of those portentous stat
utes, designed to prevent trusts, and
combinations in restraint of trade, I
do not recall a dissenting Southern
vote. The safety appliance legislation
of congress, made to conserve the
safety of Americans, and particularly
of the brave and manly operatives
who conduct the thundering and dan
gerous machinery now used in the
transportation of the people and their
products. Bankruptcy legislation has
largely committed the adjustment of
insolvent estates to these courts. Its
penal provisions against fraud, per
jury and concealment of assets, are
within your province A multitude
of other illustrations might be cited. It
seems, therefore, no matter how theo
rists and even statesmen may differ
the iurlsdiction of our national courts
will remain an Increasing and Indeed
a vital function of our system.
"Our laws are merciful. In most
cases a large discretion enables the
court to avoid severity after convic
tion Toleration «f differences of
opinion, and particularly of religious
rtlffprenc** 1b luminous our con
stltution. The man who framed it
•eemed to have believed, with Fred
erick, the Great, ‘that everyone should
be alllowed to get to Heaven in his
own way.” True, Frederick was not
orthodox, though Carlisle tells us he
had much religion though in rather
withered form. Whether this ‘great
body of national law will prove salu
tary or useless depends almost wholly
on ourselves. The character of a na
tion may be guaged by their laws and
their enforcement. AVe should place
in exactly the same light here, those
who sit in the seats of the mighty, and
those whose lives are, recounted alone,
in the short and simple annals of the
poor. Judges and juries should ever
seek to attain the standard of John
Marshall, 'to know nothing about the
parties, but everything about the
case.’ That this will be your animat
ing principle, I • cannot doubt. Then
you will diligently inquire, and true
presentment make toward everyone
accused of crime, no matter how high
his condition, or how low his estate.
You may retire and begin your inves
tigation.”
KEEN INTEREST
HERE IN OPEN!
THE EXCHANGE
Was a Division of Opinion as
to Whether Cotton Would go
Up or Down as Result New
York Exchange Opening.
There was keen interest in Augusta
in the opening of the New York Cot
ton Exchange Monday. Accordingly,
there was a big crowd of cotton men
on the floor of the exchange when 10
o’clock arrived. January cotton open
ed at 7.85 and within three hours it
hod sold to 7.65, a loss of 20 points.
There was a division of opinion as
to whether or not the opening of the
New York Cotton Exchange would
improve the market. Many thought
that because of the opening of
New York, and also of New Orleans,
trading would be broadened and that
the price would go up. However, oth
ers thought that it would go down.
Middling cotton was quoted in Au
gusta at 7 1-2 cents Monday. Y

powerful and civilized American na

that the forces of your government
will very soon be withdrawn from
our port of Vera Cruz; thpn will our
relations be again completely cordial
and close as they are to be detween
adjoining peoples that are brothers
by civilization and common ideals.”
To the President.

ova at Aguas Callenes.
The Catholic church extension so
ciety of Chicago has assumed the

Be Here Monday Night or
Tuesday When Question of
Taking Off Buckhead Will be
Taken Up.
»
General Manager Chas. A. Wieker
sham, of the Georgia Railroad, did not
arrive in the city Monday morning as
was expected. However, he is expect
ed Monday night or Tuesday.
AVhen Mr. Wickersham arrives the
question of allowing the Buckhead
train to remaih on the road, at least
until after the Christinas holidays and
then consider whether to take off this
train or the fast trains, will be taken
up with him. Mr. Wickersham's with
drawal of the petition to take off the
fast trains was appreciated, but Au
gusta merchants had much rather for
the Buckhead to remain on the road
than the fast trains because if the
former is taken off there will be no
chance for people from the section be
tween Camak and Union Point com
ing to Augusta and returning on the
same day.

Earl Roberts Just before he started

ling that Earl Roberts told him ho

about the too great secrecy which, to
his mind, was kept by the military au
thorities at the front and at home
concerning the work and brave deeds
of the British troops. He considered
that while military movements should
be kept absolutely secret, the knowl

RORSE PUT OUT
OF HIS MISERY
After Five Hours of Controver
sy Including Owrfer, Street
Car Company, and Police,
Broken-legged Horse Killed
By S. P. C. A.
At about 1 o'clock on Sunday after
noon a Lake View car ran Into a
horse at the corner of Gray and Broad
Street, breaking the animal’s right
fore leg above the knee.
Some say that a small boy was
leading the horse across the car track,
others that the animal was loose and
wandering in the street. The horse,
which was 13 years old and blind in
sl*de llKht eye ’ was struck on the right
The owner, H. L. Mulligan, of 34
McKinne Street, immediately claimed
that the street car company was re
sponsible to him for the value of the
horse and disowned all further inter
est in the beast. The street car com
pany sent into town for Dr. J. H. 01l-
Phant, who came out, examined the
horse and finding its leg broken re
ported that it ought to he killed and
put out of Its misery. But tho
owner refused to give or withhold his
permission, or in any way to influence
the course of events. The street car
company was loath to authorize the
killing of the horse for fear of assum
ing responsibility. Things were at a
deadlock. Meanwhile the horse was
standing near the curb on three logs,
with the fourth dangling and bent
backwards. A considerable crowd was
gathered.
The polifce was notified, but with
out the owner's permission, had no
authority to dispatch the wretched
animal. The 'owner had washed his
hands of the whole affair.
The Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals was next appealed
to by people living in the neighbor
hood who could not stand to see the
horse continue to suffer. Through the
society Mayor L. C. Hayne was called
up and enlisted in the cause. He at
once sent Captain Grubbs of the police
department to the scene, hut still,
without the owner’s permission, noth
ing could be done. There was a mis
understanding. The owner did not
refuse his permission—his position
was that the horse ceased to belong to
him the moment the car struck it. By
this time is was 6:30 p. m.
This unheard-of state of affairs was
reported again to S. P. C. A. The
horse was supposed to have been kill
ed three hours before. Immediately
the society, without further ado, au
thorized Dr. Ollpliant to kill the horse
with the utmost possible dispatch, and
at 6:30 p. p\, five hours and a half
after the accident, the animal was
given a hypodermic injection of
cyanide.
It is possible that a. damage suit
and several suits of Cruelty to Ani
mals may arise out of the unfortunate
afternoon.

Intensity of Fighting in North
France Diminishing. Guns
and Ammunition Wagons Lie
Imbedded in Mud.
Paris, 7 a. m.— The diminishing in
tensity of the German assaults in
Flanders is due to some extent to tho
severe weather conditions. The flood
ed section is increasing in area as a
result of the continuance of heavy
rains and the country between Nieu
port and Dlxmude is a vast swamp in
which guns and ammunition wagons
abandoned by the Germans He im
bedded and in which float countless
corpses.
Washed Out.
The Germans have been washed out
of their trenches in several places,
says an eye-wituesH, who has just re
turned from the front but they con
tinue to send an occasional shell to
the French trenches. It, is not prob
able that tile Germans will make fur
ther attempts in this section of tho
front, but a fierce effort is to be ex
pected from Dlxmude to Arras a.s Boon
tis the German troops have recovered
from their tremendous exertions of
last week and new men can he
brought up to fill the gaps in the
ranks.
Depends on Reserves.
The fat of the war depends now,
says Colonel Feyler, an eminent Swiss
military writer, essentially on the re
serves of men that the armies are
able to bring up and in this respect,
according to military opinion here,
Germany appears to he in a state of
inferiority. Not only does tho Rus
sian offensive prevent Germany from
transferring men from the eastern to
the western front, they point out, but
that troops that are now being in
structed in the interior will neces
sarily be sent against the Russians.
1,000 Miles Apart.
It Is also pointed out that Germany
has to operate on fronts totalling
nearly 1,000 miles with 25 active army
corps while the allies have ptheir
disposal 20 army corps for a line less
than half as long. Thus from the
point of view of available troops it is
argued the comparison is unfavorable
to the Germans.
So far as equipment is eoneerned,
the infantry on both sides are equally
well supplied. At the beginning the
Germans were much better off with
quick-firers hut the allies lmve now
caught up by intensive production in
the arms factories.
Especially Light Piece*.
In the artillery the allies are said
to have advantage as far as light
pieces are concerned hut the German
heavy artillery is superior. They are
not likely to retain that superiority
long, however, sinre both the French
and British arsenals are beginning to
deliver big guns and the allies have
plenty of trained men to servo them.

R. A. Whitaker, of Augusta, Raises Blue Ribbon
Chickens in Augusta in His Back Yard. Also
Has Large Flock of Pigeons. A Most Inter

Broad Street.
That the poultry industry can be
successfully carried on, even in a' cir
cumscribed space, has been plainly
demonstrated by Mr. R. W. Whitaker,
an Augusta man, who for sometime
Past has given his spare time to poul
try raising.
When the 1814 Georgia-Carolinu
Fair opened, Mr. Whitaker entered sev
eral of his birds to compete for prizes,
and as was expected by his friends
who saw them prior to the exhibition
at the fair grounds, his came out win
ner of all the prizes, on his Single
Comb Ruff Orphingtons. They were
beauties, and perfect specimens of this
mueli desired and admired strain. It
is this breed that Mr. Whitaker is now
raising, not. allowing any other to en
ter bis pens for fear that the high
standard to which he has attained his
Buff Orpingtons might be reduced by
enterbreeding.
The lot employed by Mr. Whitaker
in his poultry industry will not ex
ceed 40x100 feet, and every availablq
space is taken up for the raising and
Care of his poultry and pigeons. He has
installed the latest and most improved
pens, known as the Wood system of
poultry culture. These pens are so
arranged that every method of sani
tation is employed and in consequence
there are never any sick or unhealth
ful fowls on his lot. Every pen is
portable and can be cleaned and venti
lated in a few minutes. In this small
space is a capacity for hatching and
raising upwards of 200 chickens, be
sides a score of pigeons. The birds
are all fed on a variety of food which
is carefully guarded by Mr. Whitaker
to obtain the best results at given
times. For instance, when his hens
are preparing to lay he sees to it that

While everybody is asked to begin
today to apply the principle of living
at home to their purchases, to for one

the day has necessarily been one of

The Open Air Market.
There I snot the slightest doubt that
the open Air Market on the 600 and 800
Mocks of Broad street will be liberal
ly patronized Saturday by the house
keepers and the Augusta buying pub
lle, Before 10 o'clock this morning
there were numbers of visitors at the
market headquarters who, under the
impression that country produce would
Vo on sale there all this week, were
rearly to fill their market baskets.

the best results at that time: they are
also fed on green food raised on the
premises, Insuring at all times the
most profitable results from the labor
and expenditure of money involved. A
visit to the poultry yards of Mr.
Whitaker, 803 Pine street, will con
vince any one that it pays to breed the
best strain and to prepare for the busi
ness in a manner that will save time
and money. Mr. Whitaker has cer
tainly solved the problem.
In addition to poultry, Mr. Whitaker
is giving the raising of pigeons a por
tion of his time. He now has possibly
200 of the handsomest hirds to be seen
anywhere. He is selling the squabs
daily to those who appreciate this most
delicately flavored and tender meat.
His pot breed Is the “Homer,” imported
direct from Antwerp.
The Orpington is considered to be
better layers than any other breed,
especially in the winter wtien eggs are
high priced and scarce on the market:
they are also large and suitable for
table purposes, being considered by
many sweeter meat and more desir
able in every way than other birds.
slr. Whitaker has on exhibition at
629 Broad street, during the Llve-at-
Home, Buy-at-Home Week a set of
his pride birds, four hens and one
male, and he requests all lovers of
poultry to visit this number and see
his prize-winning birds. They are the
finest specimens ever before seen in
this or any other city and will be well
worth any one’s time to view them.
Mr. Whitaker sells eggs from, his
brood at very reasonable charges and
the demand has been so heavy on him.
for sometime past that he has been un
able lo fill all orders when received,
hut they are listed and in turn are
filled. His telephone number is 2283-J.
