WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 9
INVESTIGATION OF
RECORDER PROBABLY
PROCEED 113 FUMES
The Police Committee Invites
Recorder Irvin to Appear
on Wednesday Afternoon.
Thought Charges of Police
men Insufficient.
Recorder W. D. Irvin has been in
vited to appear before the police com
mittee of city council Wednesday af
ternoon to answer the charges made
against him at a recent meeting of
fcfoa committee when the chief of po
lice and several patrolmen gavo evi
dence against him for the alleged im
proper manner in which he conducts
his court.
It is believed that the police com
mittee, after hearing Mr. Irvin’s state
ment, will recommend that the inves
tigation proceed no further, and that
the committee will find the charges
which certain officers have made
against the recorder insufficient to
pursue the matter and there will be
no more to it.
Mr. Irvin has maintained silence
throughout the entire affair, refusing
to discuss his side of the case in the
newspapers, although his friends have
not been backward about asserting
that Mr. Irvin’s official record is all
right.
The police committee makes it plain
that it is not the instigator of the in
vestigation at all, but is merely per
forming the functions delegated to It
by city council without fear or favor.
An early end to the affair is hoped
for ardently and the bickerings and
strife between Augusta city officials
iVill not prevail in the future, say
tentlemen in a position to know.

a number of interesting pictures.
An interesting time is promised the
spectators. There will be no admis

PARESIS AND
DIABETES
Paresis, like coma when sympto
matic of Diabetes, commonly presents
a critical condition. Mr. Henry Rin
go in book lines, Post Street, San
Francisco was in bed for nine weeks
with Diabetes complicated with
Bright’s Disease and Paresis. To use
the language of his physician, “The
urine was loaded with both sugar and
albumen but he would probably die
of Paresis,” which was so far ad
vanced that, of nine physicians who
had passed on the case none gave any
hope. Patient was in a wheel-chair
much of the time.
A prominent Devisadero Street
physician administered Fulton’s Dia
betic Compound with gradual but
steady response. The final results
may be known from this. This was
nine years ago and patient is at this
writing (Feb., 1914) a robust man ap
proaching 200 pounds, devoting his
energies to his business.
The ability of Fulton’s Diabetic
Compound to reduce sugar in many
cases of Diabetes in people over fifty
(above patient was somewhat under
fifty) is not a matter of opinion but
a FACT IN PHYSICS and we will
send formula that will show the per
centage of sugar from week to week.
As the sugar declines patients com
monly improve, recovery or prolongs
tion of life bein 0 common reports.

ZUDORA AND OTHER
PLAYS AT MODJESKA
“The Mystery of the sleeping house,”
is the title of the second episode of
Zudora, the thrilling serial now being
shown at the Modjeska. A short ac
count of the interesting play follows:
An Eastern Princess, following an
uprising, during which the hills run
with blood, is captured by the victor
ious tribe and brought, a captive, to
America. The terrible struggle of the
tribes for the hillside home of the
princess presents an awe-inspiring
scene. In the new home, the prince,’
captor of the girl, establishes himself
in all the regal splendor necessary to
the native heart. The tribal idor, the*
god Ganesha, is transplanted, too, and
under his shelter the tribe plans to
live long and prosper. The prince and
his captive gaze upon the dancing
girls, he with the eye of a conqueror
and she with a troubled look on her
face. Save for the troubled look on
the face of the princess all is gay.
Somewhere there is another prince
who is planning to free the princess
for his clutches, where she could rest
peacefully in his arms.
She knows her lover is daring and
believes in him, and even while the en
joyment is at its height one leader
swoons, then another, until finally the
whole tribe is asleep. Then from the
base of the massive idol there appears
a head —that of the searching princess.
When the tribe recovers from the
sleep, they summon Hassam Ali to
solve the mystery. And, too, Zudora
comes into the case, for Hassam has
promised to let her solve 20 consecu
tive cases. In the event that she suc
ceeds she may wed John Storm. They
visit the home of the tribe. They have
again fallen asleep. Meanwhile Storm,
in search of Zudora, arrives on the
scene just as they are waking. An ac
cusing finger is pointed at him. He is
doomed to a prison, with walls that
will close and crush him to death. Zu
dora. who is investigating the case
finds a lotus leaf, puzzled at its ap
pearance there she examines the idol
and is surprised to hear voices below.
She descends and is caught by the
friends of the “seeking” prince, and is
condemned to die. She tells her mis
sion, and they agree to let her go free.
So, again the furnace is fed and the
tribe put asleep, and the princess is
taken, the tribe is awakened and a
battle ensues. However, the princess
is captured. Zudora hears plaintive
cries of distress. It is the voice of
Storm. Zudora rescues her sweethear
from the chamber of death.
“Leading Lizzie Astray,” “Miss Tom
boy and Freckles” and “Getting to the
Ballgame,” are also features on the
program.
WANT HOLIDAYS AFTER
CHRISTMAS, NOT BEFORE
A large number of mothers, it 1s
understood, are in favor of the schools,
if there is to be but one week for
Christmas, having the holiday period
after Christmas. They are opposed io
the holidays coming so the children
will not have a single school day at
home with their toys, etc., after Santa
Claus’ visit.
This idea is brought out in petitions
that are '<elng signed, which are on
display in several of the stores on
Brogd street.
The petitions may be found at the
stores of Burton-Taylor-Wise; Von
Kamp, Vaughan & Gerald; J. B. White
Company; J. A. Mullarky; Wise Dry
Goods Company, and Andrews Broth
ers.
They will be presented to the board
of education by the mothers at the
board’s meeting Saturday morning at
10 o’clock, at the Tubman High school.
The Petition.
Following is a copy of the peti
tion:
"To the Hon. Bawton B. Evans and
Board of Education:
“Dear sirs: We, the undersigned,
respectfully requpst that qur children
be given the usual week’s holiday fol
lowing Christmas, or, if this, in your
Judgment, with the week that has been
arranged for, be considered too long
time for their studies, we would then
ask that their holiday begin on Christ
mas eve and extend through New
Yew's, the latter arrangement being
but one more day than has already
been given them and, as w« believe, a
more satisfactory holiday. Your favor
able consideration will be appreciated.”

Council Declares Day After
Christmas Holiday.
At the meeting of council Monday
night a resolution was unanimously
passed declaring the Saturday after
Christmas Day a legal holiday 'n this
city. This means that the banks will
close and the fact that there will be
two holidays in succession—three in
cluding Sunday—brings joy to the
bank clerks who declare that they are
sadly overworked and need more hol
idays. The city offices will also Cose
on Saturday December 26tli.
Another matter of interest that was
brought out at council meeting, but
was not spoken of on the floor of
council was in reference to street cars
coming to a stop of slowing down on
the near side of certain dangerous
corners.
Councilman Kent, of the Fourth
Ward, who was responsible for the
order to have the cars slow down or
stop on the near side of certain cor
ners, stated to reporters that there
was confusion in the minds of a great
many people as to the exact meaning
of the order. He said that lie and
General Manager Spofford, of the rail
way company, both interpreted the or
der for cars to slow down on the near
side of Fifteenth and Walton Way,
Fifteenth and Gwinnett, Twelfth and
Gwinnett and several other corners,
but to stop for taking on and dis
charging passengers on the far side
of the street, as at every other street
in the city. Bo remember the car
does not stop for taking on or putting
off passengers on the near side of any
street, but on certain streets slow's
down on the near side so as to elimi
nate the danger of collision with au
tomobiles, etc.

Keep Your Lungs Strong
This advice is doubly important with
the knowledge that every three minutes
some one in the United States succumbs
to consumption and many refuse to
realize they are afflicted until it is too late.
It is after colds or sickness, front over
work, confining duties or when general
weakness exists that tubercular germs
thrive because the resistive powers of
the body are weakened.
Only with fresh air, sunshine and
abundant rich blood can one hope to
arrest their progress, and the concen
trated fats in Scott’s Emulsion furnish
fuel for rich blood, and its rare nourish
ment helps strengthen the lungs while
it builds up the forces.
If you work indoors, tire easily, feel
languid or run-down Scott's Emulsion is
the most strengthening food-medicine
known and is free from alcohol or stupe
fying drugs. Avoid substitutes.

SISTER-IN-LAW GUILTY OF
SACKING FENDALL’S HOUSE
The Woman Was Caught
Morning After Outrage Had
Been Committed. Came From
Philadelphia for Express Pur
pose.
The mystery of the sacking and de
vastation of the house of Anderson
Kendall, the colored tailor, which oc
curred last Friday night, has been
cleared up. Detectives Roney and
Horn, who were put on the case Sat
urday morning at 8 o’clock, had the
guilty woman under arrest within
three hours, but the ease was the
time hushed up and the newspaper
representative who reported the case
Tuesday was unable at that time to
arrive at the true facts.
When Fendall and his wife went
home from the theatre on Friday night,
to find tlieir house internally wrecked
and all their clotlies cut to pieces, they
waited until morning before reporting
the matter to the police. At 8 o'clock
Detectives Roney and Horn set to
work on lie case, and at 11 they had
apprehended and arrested one Harriet
Barny, colored, the sister of Fendall’s
first wife, who confessed that she had
come all the way from Philadelphia to
perpetrate this act of what seems to
have been revengeful jealousy. At the
time of her arrest she had the return
ticket to Philadelphia in her pocket.
When the identity of the guilty per
son was thus discovered, Fendall ask
ed that, the case be dropped, and that
his erstwhile sister-in-law be released.
The detectives granted his request, and
the case was hushed up.
In giving the story to the press yes
terday, Anderson failed to give the
fact that the offender had been caught.
The police were not interviewed in
the matter until this morning, when
the whole story came to light.
