But ? God is not found in all their thoughts. , There is an old saying spoken by | one of the profoundest thinkers the world lias ever produced, which con f fronts us right at this point. "God is ■not mocked; for whatsoever a man 'soweth, that shall he also reap. For be that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that sow eth to the spirit shall of the spirit reap life everlasting.” (Paul the Apostle, t Galatians, VI, 7.) Sunday is the Lord’s day. It be longs to him. To give It up to the world, the flesh, or the devil is to rob God. Those who waste its pre cious hours in luxurous laziness are robbing themselves also of the most stimulating, Interesting end profitable 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. Citizen. Report Says Turkey’s Sultan Has Given Up Toga. New York, June 20.—A news agen cy has reported that there has been a revolt in Constantinople and the aulthn had abdicated, Washington, Jutne 20. —The state department has received no confirma tion of the reported revolt in Con stantinople.

The source of the reports is not given and well informed circles discredit them, but they have created much excitement in Belgrade. EMMELINE TO CUMBERLAND. Will Make the Usual Sunday Trip Tomorrow. The steamer Emmeline, after be- ing thoroughly overhauled, has r@- sumed her regular runs to Cumber land and Fernandina, and today this comfortable boat will take the Sunday excursion to Cumberland. Since these Suday excursions were Inaugurated this season; there has not been a fair Sunday, and, therefore, the crowd has been rather small, but tomorrow fair weather is promis el and no doubt a large crowd will go down. The very cheap rate of $1.50 for the round trip, Inncluding dinner and ear fare to the hotel has been an nounced. Manager Jacobi is prepared to look after the crowd, and those who wish to enjoy a delightful Sun day should go over to Cumberland. day of the week. They are fritter ing away golden opportunities for the cultivation of the higher qualities of mind and heart. They ought to spend it In the worship of God, In good reading. In deeds of benevo lence,, in quiethome joys, in higher pursuits not lower than those of other days. These are the dictates not only of true religion but of sound common MIM: WAYCIK BOVS DEFEAT LOCALS Won Yesterday’s Game After a Hard Bat tle. 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 over their victory. The game, however, after the locals discovered ti.n f-.-y- . f)| | - Interesting aim the teams began their run making in the very first inning, 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 ting in that two-by-four fancy swing the runner would go to the next base with ease. However, he did very well and it was not altogethed the pitchers fault hat the game was lost. Following is the score in detail; Brunswick. ab. r. h. 0.. a, e.

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. 2, Brunswick 2; two base hits, Peter man, Hopkins and F.

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.

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.” ivame given by Postum Cos., Battle Creek, Mich,
