TWO Matter Insolvent Costs For Solicitor General to Go Beiore Grand Jury Interesting Question-- Some Grand Jurors Said to Be Dis satisfied Because Solicitor General Received $6,317.75 in Insolvent Costs From Richmond County in 1914 Compared With $2,000 Per Year For Predecessor. Mr. Franklin Will Make Statement Later. It Im understood that the Richmond County grand Jury hue taken up—or If It hasn't already done ho will do ho the* quest ion of insolvent costs paid to the solicitor general. Just what the* grand jury will do. or can do about the matter is not known. A tic r the morning session Wednesday the grand Jury adjourned until next week. It iu understood that Holicltor Gen eral Franklin In 1014, the m*corid year In office, secured $0,317.75 from the treasury of Richmond County in in solvent costs. There seems to he no dispute shout the right of the .solici tor general to receive all of the in solvent costs, under a decision of the supreme court of Georgia, handed down about two years ago, if recom mended by the grand Jury. How ever, there 1h a question as to wheth er the InHolvent costs can bo paid if the grand juries do not so recom mend. It seems that a great many years ago h bill was passed in the legisla ture limiting the insolvent costs for the solicitor general In Richmond County to $2,000 per year. Messrs. William H. Pavis and .Jos. S. Rey nolds, therefore, received $2,000 per yaer from this county from that source. About three nr four years» ago Mr. Salem Putcher. a« attorney for tho county commissioners, took (lie mat ter of Insolvent costs tip to the su preme court, his idea being that $2,000 per year was too much to be paid the. solicitor general each year from tho BARGE “RICHMOND” IS READY FOR SERVICE Offices in Augusta Notified To day it is Officially Complete.

Holicltor General Franklin was ask ed for a statement Wednesday and ho said that lie could not discuss tho subject at this time because all mat ters pertaining to the grand Jury were of a private nature, Ac. a matter of course, information about the Insol vent costs did not come from grand Jurymen for they never disclose mat ters which are before thqm on the outside, Mr. Franklin Intimated that ho would make a statement later. There are few fines in the superior court as compared with the city court and the cases are almost all felonies. Occasionally cases are reduced to mi«- demeanor fl and fines given, which, when paid are divided among tho sheriff, clerk and solicitor general. Also practically all of the costs in tho superior court are Insolvent for tho defendants are unable to pay them.

ALLEN The following beautiful tribute tu the late l)r. Joseph E. Allen, which well describes his useful life, has been contributed to The Herald by one of Ids countless friends: If Charity coveroth a multitude of sins, no sin remained on the soul of ihis noble son of the Savior, as his Christian works of mercy were many. Never was he known to refuse to re spond to a call for aid for the troubled and suffering. Always ready with his words of comfort and cheer, al ways responding to any call for alii from the humblest in the land to those of wealth, who were all his brethren when assailed by physical agony. Not only was he a healer of bodies, but in his own original way he healed souls by bringing comfort and cheer to many despondent and rebellious spir its who would not have passed through the portals strewn with sharp pebbles of woo with strength and impe. If It had not been for their great confidence in the skill of this gifted man, whose personality and very pres enee was often a stimulant to the suf ferer; his softly spoken words of hope and cheer would give new strength in the battle with plain. He was hon ored and beloved by men, who would j place in bis hands the lives of those dear to them and countless numbers of saddened hearts have ached since the news that he was no more, that he has gone to the Ood whom he hum bly obeyed when the call came for him to follow his Master in the work of healing, and hundreds who have known his healing toueh thank Ood for tho ,lfe of such a man. In God's great mercy one heart has ('eased to suffer and the patient sufferer has gone to feel the balm of a Heavenly Father who “dooth all things well, hut countless other sufferers have sustain ed n Ins irreparable in tho taking away of good and just servant of a Divine Master, who humbly anil con scientiously fulfilled his mission, and to the very best obeyed the command from on high. Augusta has lost one of her best be loved citizens, who has been loved for the great good he has dono, during his entire life Tears ean never wnsh awn v his memory from countless among the healed, who have thanked the Father for such a man. "Verily. If you have not charity, ye cannot enter Into the Kingdom of Heaven." Who dares to snv Dr. Joseph F Allen had not charity In Its great est and fullest sense? All men were his brothers, and his love of humanity was the secret of hlc great success ns a healer of physi cal and spiritual man Other healers are carrying on the work which they learned from his teachings ns he wish, ed for hts work to continue down for ages Work for alleviating pnln and snvtng life Work whirh he loved as ho loved hts fellow men. Hv Inheritance he was one of God's workmen, and his very sonl won filled with a desire to hen! and comfort the sufferer, cheering and comforting ns he went along, winning tho gratitude and love of many. A gentleman of honor and high prin ciple was our dear Doctor Allen, a true gentleman as well as a great amt skilled man. His love .if man mads of him a beloved eon of the Father of all men and his examples ns well as his teachings will make the wor d better. Augusta mourns today for one of her best beloved and when the body of Doctor Mien is la d away In Its last resting place, there will he many »n 1 and bitter tears poured out that such a man has been called awgv when we needed him so much. He leaves a great, bUf-fHUIIS 1 of brothers, ns it were, to mourn for him. as evert man was hts brother His beloved sisters and brother are bowed down in grief over their irreparitbl • loss as their mutual love was great ami they lavished upon him every care and attention hive and skill could give.

Street City State COURT DIRECTS VERDICT FOR PLITIFF In Case of Citizens and South ern Bank vs. Mr. Patrick Armstrong Verdict Taken For $42,133.69 For the Plaintiff. Wednesday at 1 o'clock Judge Henry C. Hammond directed a verdict for the plaintiff in the case of the Citi zens & Southern Bank vs. Mr. Pat rick Armstrong, surety on a note which the Irish-American Bank, now defunct, gav# to the Citizens & South ern Bank in December, 1913. The verdict is for $42,133.69 and interest and $4,213 attorney’s fees. It is ex pected that the case will be appealed by the defense. In directing the verdict the court upheld the contentions of plaintiff’s counsel to the effect that the note of Anna R. Campbell $ Company, which was surrendered by the Citizens & Southern Bank to J. P. Armstrong, was surrendered to Armstrong as agent to collect for the benefit of the Citizens & Southern Bank and plain tiff's attorneys exhibited in court a trust receipt which J. P. Armstrong gave the Citizens & Southern when he secured the Anna R. Campbell note for $25,000. Armstrong is said to have informed the Citizens & Southern that he wished to discount the note in Chicago. Judge Hammond stated that the collateral furnished the Citizens & Southern Bank, in the form of the Anna R. Campbell note and security deed to the Southwestern Land Com pany were not given at all at the time the Irish-American borrowed $43,500 from the Citizens & Southern Bank on a note endorsed by J. P. Armstrong and Mr. Patrick Arm strong, that this collateral wa B ob tained later and did not influence plaintiff in lending the money. It was the contention of the defense that by reason of the Citizens & Southern Bank surrendering a por tion of the collateral for the $43,500 note without the consent of Mr. Arm strong, thereby increasing his liabil ity without his consent, that Mr. Arm strong could not be forced to make good his endorsement. The court, however, held that the Anna R. Campbell note did not enter into the transaction except a* addi tional security secured after the money had been loaned to the Irish- American Bank and that it did not affect Mr. Patrick Armstrong's liabil ity, one way or another.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 20 WHAT CAUSES COLDS? This question and “How to Prevent Colds” is asked a thousand times; every day. A cold is really a fever,'J not always caused by the weather but J due to a disordered condition of fclie blood or lack of important food-i elements. In changing seasons fat-i foods are essential because they dis tribute heat by enriching the blood and so render the body better able to withstand the varying elements. This is the underlying reason why the medicinal fats in Scott’s Emulsion quickly overcome colds and build strength to prevent more serious sick ness. It contains nature’s medicinal fats, so skillfully prepared that the blood profits from every drop, and it is free from harmful drugs or alcohol. 14-57 Scott & Bcrwnc, Bloomfield, N.
