LEAVE IT TO THE JURY.
Citizen Writes Card Concernng At
tack on Jurors.
Editor News:
In. yesterday’s Journal, in Its refer
ence to the action of Judge Burk
in the states vs. Bob Catlet, appears
the following:
1 "Juries reach some very strange
conclusions sometimes, which leads
us to suspect that the ends of justice
are as about as often defeated as
otherwise by that ‘relic’ form of
trial.”
I do not know, but there is room
for belief that the Journal is opposed
to trial by jury, it looks that way;
if so. even in day and time, whether
it is a “relic” or not, it would be
well for the people to consider
whether it is safe to dispense with
the service of the jury before they
are lead off by inexperienced men to
attack that ancient, safe and honored
custom of trial by jury.
Our ancestors tried trial by jury
and found it good; the framers of the
constitution of the United States pro
vided for it; the people of the state
of Georgia provided for it in our con
stitution, and so it is I believe in
every state in the Union. OJd Eng
land, the another '.country, upholds
it, and lastly the safety of our people
demands its continuance; it is a check
upon judicial corruption, and in these
uays, of all, with unscrupulous corpo
rations, and capitalists and their known
operations with their immense for-
tunes, ready to corrupt the judiciary
If necessary, to carry into effect their
nefarious schemes, the jugy is an
lndispenseable safe guard. God for
bid that that the old, true and tried
jury system should ever be dispensed
with.

After a Hard Bat

IHE SCONE STOOD 9 TO 7
The Game Was a Very Interesting
One and Was Witnessed by
a Large Crowd—Abbott
Hit Home Run.
After playing rings- around the team
from Waycross Friday to the tune of
26 to 1, the locals went on the dia
mond yesterday afternoon, and, before
a lare crowd, lowered their pretty col
ors, in a game which they could have
easily won had they not thought the
visitors were too easy and bad start
ed to playing ball in the first part ol
the game.
After the dust had cleared away
at the end of the ninth inning, the
score was announced 9 to 7 in favor
of Waycross. Just think, Waycross
defeating Brunswick in a baseail
game. Well!
When the game commenced there
was not a man on the diamond who
wouid wager a cent against Bruns
wick. in tact the fans as well as the
team, were sure that Friday's perfor
mance would be repeated, but after
•■Jie game had proceeded lor awhile
it began to look different, and when, in
the nninth inning, when the score
stood 6 to 6, the Waycross boys piieu
up three runs all hope had vanished
u was too late for the locals to catch
them, although they made a desper
ate effort in their last inning, and suc
ceeded in getting one man across tne
home plate. But that’s all, and the
V v a ! team le£t the field Jubilatu

the teams began their

Waycross making 2 and Brunswick
j. in the seconu mmng
sctJred 2 runs. Pittman was on sec
ond when Abbot, who was playing
with Waycoss, was given credit
for the first home ruuof the season in
Brunswick. His drive was a long one
over the right field fence. Bruns
wick tied the score in the fourth.
Thus the clubs remained, 5 and &,
until the eighth inning, when the visi
tors added another to their tally. It
looked as if the game was over then
but by a hard pull the locals succeed
ed in tieing the score again in the
eighth. Bowen went to first. He was
given a runner, Nightengale, and by
desperate chances 'he succeeded in
making the circle.
In the ninth the Waycross boys suc
ceeded in knocking the ball all over
the diamond and three of their men
crossed the home plate. It was all
up with Brunswick and Manager Cole
man saw that his team would have
to return to the city in a hearse,
However, they excited the crowd
somewhat by making one more tallly.
With a man on first and two outs
the batter flew out at short
stop and the crowd left the diamond
wondering how it all happened.
Mallard was in the box for the lo
cals and a number of hits were se
cured off him, and thats for stealing
bases, it was an easy matter. Frank
lias a lot of red tape connected with
his delivery and while he was get

A GAY LATHARIO
111 HARD LUCK
W f
Savannah Man’s Outing
to Brunswick Ended
Seriously.
■i i .r * • -i
“TOUGHED” FOR ALL TfL HAD
In the Gay Old Tenderloin a Sav
annah Visitor Met With an Un
happy Mishap—Officers
on the Case.
A well Known Savannah man, who
is closely identified with shipping cir
cles in that city, and whose name
is withheld by request, played an un
usually hard luck game in Brunswick
Friday nighL
It seems that the Savannah gentle
man came over to Brunswick for a
little outing and general good tm,
and it appears that he had both of
them, but, unfortunately, the role of
comedy and of the melo-dramatic fin
ally lost itself in the meshes of the
deepest tragedy.
Like most gay visitors, he wended
his way to the tenderloin, and dur
ing the early morning hours it seems
that a sneak thief entered the room
which he occupied and relieved him
of his trousers, which contained a
gold watch valued at SIOO, sls in cash
and a very important document, the
msigna of his calling.
When the Savannahian unfolded him
self from the spells of Morpheus he
found himself very much like tne
young lady who was in surf bathing,
while a gay dissembler made away
wth the articles of her wardrobe. He
finally sent to the city, however, pro
cured the missing members of his
toilet, came to town and reported the
matters to the authorities. ——.
Assistant Chief of Po I 1 “
and JVputy SbrlfC—l d’ly *
have not been able to jf .■v® tile
guilty party-.
The Forest City gentleman return
ed to his home last night with anew
pair of trousers, but minus the other
articles enumerated above. The
chances are the next time he wants a
little outing he will go to Charleston
or or some other city rather than
Brunswick.
MANY NAMES ARE SUGGESTED.
Fans Want to Give Our Ball Players
a Good Title.
The item printed in the News yes
terday, Requesting the baseball fans
co send in names for the Brunswick
baseball team, was according to the
names suggested, read by everybody
i; the city, and. as a result, any num
ber of names were sent in yesterday.
Among them may bs mentioned: the
Pilots, whch was suggested by three
yoople, the Seaguls, the Fishermen,
the Beacons, the Crabs, the Fiddlers,
the Sharks, the Specials, the Tigers,
the Secretaries and many others.
Among these names, however, the
News endorses the name of Pilots,
and woul respectfully ask Manager
Coleman and ris aggregation cf play
ers to adopt that cognomen.
ON A VACATION.
Dr. Wyllys Rede to Leave July 4 for
Two Months.
Dr. Wyllys Rede, the very popular
pastor of St. Mark’s Episcopal
church, will leave about the first of
July for Baltimore and Wilmington
for a two months, very much deserved
vacation. During his absence Dr.
Samuel J. French, of Waycross, will
officiate is the pulpit at St. Marks.
The vestry of this church, at a meet
ing held a few days ago, not only
granted Mr. Rede the needed rest but
voted him full salary during hds ab
sence and appropriated a sum to be
paid Dr. French while here.
Dr. Rede, since coming to Bruns
wick, has been a very devout worker
in the church and the entire com
munity has felt his able efforts.
The News joins the many friends
of the doctor and hope for him and
family a most delightful vacation.

NEGRO WORKS
A BUNCO GAME
’ ♦ Hli,
Prominent Young Attorn
ey Buys a Gold
Brick
WHICH COST HIM JUST $25.
Slick Negro With an Inventive Mind
Plays a Rather Severe Prac
tical Joke on Prominent
Young Attorney.
One of Brunswick’s young attorn
eys is out $25. Ho was caught in
a bunco game which was worked by
a negro in great style.
It is not necessary for the News
to give the name of ihe attorney, just
keep your eyes on some of the young
er members of the bar and you can
tell, by the expression on his face,
that he was the victim of llie game.
The negro planned his scheme out
well, and tried it on many members
of the Brunswick bar, but it did not
work. He thiought he would select
one who had not had so much exper
ience at the bar. He did it, It work
ed. He secured $25 and left. The
young attorney is better off for the
experience.
The game was worked in this fash
ion.
Several days ago a negro went to
P. M. Golden, a well known steno
grapher in the city, and said he had
some writing which he desired to have
done. Tine stenographer, of course,
took the job, and the negro got him
to write a letter on Southern rail
way stationary. The letter was
addressed to some unknown party,
and read as If the negro had a suit
against the Southfigy-.-- Macon. The
ars
rM *„ . at p
negro would agree to nccepc fan I •
squashi the suit.
With the letter the negro visited
several attorneys. He told the story
that he needed some money to pay
the funeral expenses of his brother
in Macon, and, saying that he would
place the case in their hands asked the
attorneys if they would advance him
the sum of $25. This the lawyers all
refused to do. Mr. Golden thought
there was something queer about the
case, and notified several of the at
torneys to look out. But he did not
tell this young barrister.
Friday the negro went up to the
young attorney’s office, explained the
case, and said he would like to em
ploy him to be his representative.
The lawyer took the case. Then the no
gro told the story about his dead
brother in Macon. Saying that he
was sure to get the money the lawyer
thought it would be safe to advance
him *s2s. But the negro went fur-
ther and gave the attorney a mort
gage on a mule and Wagon, which
'did not exist. He said that he would
aee the lawyer later, but he didn’t.
The young attorney thought lie had
a good case, and would make a couple
of hundred out of it He told It to
several of his friends and smiled up
his sleeve.
But when he learned the truth. Ho
started a search for the negro, but
he has not been found and probably
never will.
It is understood till at the -negro
worked the game on an Atlanta at
torney before coming to Brunswick.

AN INNOVATION.
Mutual Light and Water Company to
Erect Gas Stoves Free.
The Mutual Light and Water com-
Pany, with their usual enterprise,have
introduced an innovation to the people
of Brunswick which will prove to be
a saving of labor, time and money
to the ordinary family, and at the
same time will serve to simplify the
very important question of cooking,
os it is well known this company for
some time past has been pushing
the subject of gas stoves, and in
every way possible have endeavored
to induce the people of Brunswick
to use them.
Along this line they have arranged
lo install, plumb and connect all gas
stoves purchased from them free of
cost; this wtill result In the sav
ing of about ten dollars on each
stove purchased.
If the average housewife desires to
see a praclieal demonstration of the
simplicity and labor-saving elements
they should visit (he store of H. M.
Miller and Son any time this week,
where the Ballard and Ballard com
pany are going to give a public ex
hibition in thsi line. They will show
the variius strong features of the
gas stoves, not only in the cooking of
ordinary breads, but with the very
best and most delicate of pastries.
The Mutual Light and Wlator com
pany have engaged the services of
a solicitor for this department of
their business and he will probably
call on very near every family in the
city who are not using the gas
stoves. The ladies of Brunswick are
especially invited to witness the Bal
lard demonstration this week,

POWERFUL
A Pure Food Drink Has Great Sustain
ing Power.
The sustaining power of Postum
Coffee when properly cooked Is great
er than most people imagine and it is
well illustrated In the story told by a
young Texas woman who says: 1 al
most lived on Postum Cereal Coffee
for over a month and there was over
a week I did not eat anything at all
but just drank the food drink Postum
and yet 1 grew stronger and gained
weight.
"Our family physican examined
Postum and decided to use It altogeth
er instead of coffee. We all think it
lias no equal as a nourishment for the
sick for besides being pleasant to
taste it sso strengthening. My father
and mother have always' been coffee
drinkers and suffered all kinds of trou
bles from the coffee until about a
year ago a neighbor was praising I’os
aum and mother decided to try It.
"They improved at once and have
drank Postum ever since and mother,
who used to be bothered with ner
vousness and sleeplessness particu-
larly, is In splendid health now. She
says the change came entirely from
drinking Postum- and leaving off col
iee.”
