erected and on March 1, LOo, the
academy was formerly opened, having
28 pupils in attendance at the- time,
and the institution has been ever
since in continous service.
During that time about 2500 pupils
have received instruction at the
school, and among that number are
included some of the most eminent
scholars in the country Among the
early graduate who afterwards achiev
ed fame were Rufus King, a member
* oi the constitutional convention; Sam

STRICT ORDERS
10 HICK DRIVERS
Hereafter They Must Not
Congregate on the
Street Corners.
Orders h.ivo been issue 1 by Chief
of Police Burney to the hack drivers
cf the city, and there are any number
of them to clear Gloucester street at
the intersection of Newcastle, and
hereafter no hacks will be permitted
to stop and loiter around the princi
pal corner of the city.
It is a well known fact that, any
hour day or night any number of
these street hacks are congregated
around the corner of these two
streets. As many as fifteen have been
there at one time. The drivers go to
sleep, leaving their horses standing,
in many instances, for hours. Some
time it is almost impossible for a
private conveyance to pass along
Gloucester street near Morgan’s drug
s'oie, the street being blocked by
these street carriages.
Last right Assistant Chief of Po
lice Owens was busy notifying the
drivers to keep off the ct-ner and
i hereafter this nuisance will be stop
pad. The ass; tanl thief gave the
hackmcn instructions to discontinue
hanging around the corner in ques-
Scion. If they desire to remain on
t,ie streets at all they must keep mov
ing or find some back street to stop
on.
Each of the carriages are■ required
to carry lights and they can easily
be seen on the back streets.
The action of the chief is to be
corurm i ued, as this certainly has been
a nuisance in the past.

ORE CLERK EOR
80TR COURTS
Amendment to City Court
Bill Will be Intro
duced.
Notice of Local Legislation.
Application will be made at the
next general assembly of Georgia, for
the passage of a local bill entitled an
act to amend an act entitled “An act
to establish the city court of Bruns
wick, in and for the county of Glynn;
to define its jurisdicion and power;
to provide for the appointment of a
define their powers and duties and for
fine their powers and duties and for
other purposes.” Approved December
9th., 1895. Said amendment to pro
vide that the clerk of the superior
court <44 r G%cn count**, Georvia. shrill
be ex-officio clerk of the city court of
Brunswick. This June 12th., 1903.
The idea of this amendment is
simply to make the clerk of .the su
perior court, ex-officio clerk of the
city court. As it is at present there
can lie two clerks, and while at pres
ent the clerk of the superior court is
also clerk of the city court, a change
could be made. .
All members of the bar, and the peo
ple generally seem to favor the amend
ment.
BACKWARD BABIES.
Their Food Generally at Fault.
When the baby is peevish and back
ward about walking or talking the
food will often be found to be rea
son. This can be proved by chang
ing to Grape-Nuts food for a few days
for this scientific food will digest in
the weakest stomach and will give the
proper nourishment for baby building.
“When our girl was a tiny baby she
had indigestion and although we did
our test nothing seemed to help
her. She was peevish and woud not
' oven thry to walk and many times
I would cry aloud and seemed to he
in pain.
“As we had buried three children
before you can imagine how wo felt
to see this little girl wasting away.
“When she was two years old she
had a terrible sick spell and we were
very much alarmed. The doctor said
she had summer complaint and indi
gestion and told us to use Grape-
Nuts. After we had given her two
meals of this food her bowels wore
J checked and in a short t ime she was
completely well and strong again.
“Then wc noticed how her mind
too began to improve. She had never
talked before hut now she brightened
up and understood things that were
said to her. She laughs all the time
instead of crying and now after two
years living on Grape-Nuts she talks
well, has a splendid memory, and Isas
bright and healthy and happy a baby
as anyone would over care to see. I
hope some other discouraged mother
will read these lines and profit by
them.” Name given hy Postum Cos.,
Battle Creek, Mich.
An excellent way to prepare for
very young babies is to take one and
on.' h 'lf tablespoonfulls of Grape-Nun
and cover with i pint of cold water.
Let it stand for half hour, strain, and
set aside. When ready to ttso take 12
teaspoonfuls of the strained Grape-
Nuts juice and 6 teaspoonfuls of rich
tnflk. Add apinch of salt and a little
sugar, warm and feed baby every
two hours. Grape-Nuts of course is
a food for everybody, but tiny babies
are not expected to take the food
in the same way as adults.
ROOK OF "FINIS"
TO fit WRITTEN
——4
Haft Long Been Choice
Titbit in Mouths of
Scandalmongers.
London, June 12.—“ Finis” maynow
be written to the lor.g and unsavory
fcteiy of the Faxon royal family scan
dal, which has been a choice titbit in
the mouths of scandalmongers since
the sensational fight of the crown
princess Louise with the French tutor,
M. Giron;
According to a despatch from Vi
enna Ihe grand duke of Tuscany went
to l.indao today to meet his daughter
and to conclude atrangements for her
future. As already announced it has
been decided, after a consultation
with Emperor Francis Joseph, the
grand duke of Tuscany and the crown
princes of Saxony, that the erring
crown princess to make her future
home in France.
The Castle Ronno, department of
the Rhone, which is the property of
Countess Saint Vlctorle, widow of the
former court chamberlain, Count
Chambord, has been secured for her
abode.
The piincess, everything consider
ed, may count herself an fortunate in
the ending of her romatic escape.
Other fair connections of European
royal families have done less and far
ed worse, as for instance the unhappy
princess of the same name, daughter
of the King Leopold of Belgium anil
wile of Prince Philip of Coburg. As
a result of her intiigue with an An
strian army captain the unhappy prin
cess was confined in an insane asy
lum by her relatives and there she still
remains imprisoned, though from all
reports she is perfectly sane.
I Numerous other cases of late years
might be cited to show that many
Ia royal scandal has ended less for
' tunately for the woman concerned
than that of Princess Louise of Tus
cany, though the mental anguish of
the latter caused by enforced separa
tion from her children will doubtless
; prove a heavy penalty for her mis
deeds.
