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.

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. Sugar formula and literature mailed on request. John J. Fulton Co., San Francisco.

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.” MISUNDERSTANDIII6 IN REGARD CARS STOPPING Do Not Stop For Taking on or Putting Off Passengers at Near Side of Any Street. 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. HOTEL ARRIVALS Hofbrau Hotel.

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.

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. RIVER HIGHEST SINCE AUGUSTA’S LAST FLOOD Recent Rain Caused Stage to Go to Over 25 Feet.
