His Majesty Holds Court and the Populace Rejoices. Opening of the Brunswick Brewing and Ice Company's Plant—Vis itors From Many Cities— Items of Interest. A big day for Brunswick! This has certainly been one of the kind and what made it such was the occasion of the formal opening of the plant of the Brunswick Brewing and Ice Company. The morning was cloudy and showery, but that didn't dampen the ardor or the expectations of the citizens who were determined to welcome the new enterprise in a proper manner. Invitations to the opening had been scattered all over the country and special trains arriving during the forenoon brought many visitors and guests. A few moments before 11 o’clock the procession with numerous de corated beer wagons headed by the famous Atlantic band, started from the Rilles’ armory, down Newcastle street and proceeded to the brewery where a hearty welcome and befitting reception awaited the participants in the procession. A Post reporter, who arrived at the brewery in advance of the pro cession, was met at the gate by Mr. R. 11. Stahl, who extended him every courtesy. Mr. Stall, showed the reporter to the entrance to the cellars which had a few moments before been the scene of quite a pleasing little incident. The employes of the brewery had just presented Superintendent Peter Wolters with a beautiful silver water pitcher and gobletjin recognition of liis many kindnesses. The pitcher was inscribed as fol lows: Presented by the employes of the Brunswick Brewing and lee Com pany, to Peter Wol ters. on his 17th birthday. It seems that the opening of the brewery and the superintendent's natal anniversary fell upon the same day. Col. George H. Merrifield was called upon to present the pitcher and his remarks upon this occasion are said to have been most fitting In other words he covered himself with glory. It may not be amiss to say at this juncture with today Mr. Wol ters closes thirty years service in brewing. R IL Stahl, Albert Weflz ind Eberly, were the com mittee appointed for the presenta . tion. Then came an inspection of the preparations for the barbecue. Col Merrifiel 1 as chairman of the committee on bai l ecue had most certainly done his duty and Mr. Chas E. Flanders who superintended the cooking accomplished wonders under the most adverse circum stances imaginable and the meats as they lay ready for the crowd, gtivc ■ forth a most appetizing odoi. As to the buildings at the brewery. The main building which com prises the filling, beer.fementing.and hop rooms on the lower floor with other rooms above is 272 feet long by twenty three feet wide, three storys high. The machine room, where is also mandfactured ice with the ice storage and bottling rooms is 208 feet long by forty feet, one story high. The outhouses and stables are in proportion ami are as complete in de | tails as possible. Under the guidance of Mr. Robt. i Lucas the reporter went through the I immense cellars of the brewery where is kept the beer. Stepping from the heat of the outer day into the cool dimness of the vaults was a treat not noon to be forgotten and it was with i regret that the bright sunlight again greeted ones eyes. These cellars alone are 136 feet long by twenty’two I wide. The weekly capacity of the brew ery is 1,000 barrels of beer, while the ice manufactory is capable of turning out forty tops of ice per day. At 1 o'clock the barbecue was spread and the feast of good things, ' wit down by the splendid beer, dis appeared rapidly and then coine the ► peeches. Mr. W. E Kay was called upon first and in Ids reply gratified his hearers and admirers t» a marked degree. Ills ruiuurks were like the man full of pith energy and vim. • In rapid succession Messrs. Ull man, Harris, Dart ami Groover » pleased the listening crowd and when Mr. Peter Wolters got up to speak everybody cheered. Mayor .1. J. Spears was called upon and at ’ i last responded, saying that he wished the brewery every success and would nut mar the occasion with any political remarks. Previous to these speeches Mr. Herman Winters, form erly with the Savannah brewery, made a short talk, in which he pre ( . dieted a bright future for the Brans wick Brewery and Ice Company. ’ The capital stock of the company I is sloo,oooin addition to which there are $50,000 in bonds bearing 7 per ' cent. The principal owners of the company are Messrs. P. 11. Wolters, Mayer & Ullman, C. Downing, Jr., W. E. Kay and A. S. Eichberg. I Aiderman Herman Meycs and a number of other prominent Savan r nahians were on the grounds, all ol ’ whom seemed to enjoy themselves hugely. This brewery, with ail that it means for Brunswick, is not the first one ever in Glynn county for in •Stephens’ History of Georgia,” mention is made ol one tk it, in 1735, was in operation on Jckyl Island and supplied all this section of country as far as Savannah, with 1 beer and ale. The ruins still stand on Jekyl Island. As The Post goes to press the fun is still at its hcighth and speech after speech is being made. The day altogether has been a sue ( cess, and the opening of the brewery I will long be remembered in this see tion. e A big day for Brunswick ! I BRUNSWICK’3 SUBURBS. r A Post Reporter Has an Interesting [. Interview With H. J. Simmons. A Post reporter passed a few mo inents this morning very pleasantly in the oilice of Messrs. Wilson A- Simmons, civil engineers and survey ors, looking over maps of some new suburban plots that have been laid off around Brunswick during the last few months. Mr. H J. Simmons, ( with bis usual courtesy, exhibitid (> the work, and gave maty points of information. s I rbana is the name of the nearest r suburb, a series ol'2Bo beautiful lots II - . ol odx 100 feet, interspersed through out with streets sixty feet in width. It lies on the side of Gloucester street opposite Windsor park. Uibanais about half a mile from the centre of the city, with street cars in conven n . lent approach. If Habersham park is three quarters of a mile from the centre of the city, between Dixville and e Cochran avenue, two street ear lines make it accessible. One hun ( died and forty-three lots of 50x100 , aredivided up by streets of sixty an I ninety feet. I Lawreneev.lie is about one mile g out on either side of Central avenue and between the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia and the Bruns wick and Western railroads. On e either extremity there are. broad avenues of 120 feet, and the new streets there are sixty anil eighty I feet wide. There are 591 lots in tliis plat, the majority 50x100, with some ’ 90x180. Nearly all the lots in these sub g urbs a'e choice building lots and al ready many people have invested with the view of building homes e there. Hundreds of now homes will y ’ be built here during the coming twelve months. . Brunswick’s growth if lapid, but steady and healthy. Messrs.

The Effingham County Murderer Not Yet Apprehended. L I The Friends of the Birds Will do I Away wrth Trial by Jury if They can Find Him--The County Incensed. Readers of The Po.t will rmnem ’ her the account of the Effingham county tragedy which was published lust Friday. It was one of the bloodiest in the annals of crime and ’ the ollicers of the law have not yet l» . r succeeded in apprehending the mur derer, Robert G. Norton. e The fact is Norton Is liable to re main hidden away for weeks to come —or, at least until his friends feel confident that they need not fear for his personal safety as a pris ! oner. Just at present there are grave doubts as to whether he would be given the protection he should rc- J ceive. Indeed, from what some aitizens , of Etliingham say, it would be the height of imprudence for Norton to , give himself up fortrial. The probability s are too strong that no trial would be granted him: I that the result of his arrest would be lynching. The friends of the Bird boys ar' said to be even more incensed than they were when they received the first tidings of the killing. Many of them have become extremely bit ter. They look upon Noiton, in the words of the coroner's verdict, as n "wilful murderer,” and announce themselves as prepared to give him the treatment accorded murderers in wil I western settlements They are said to have said that if they can lay hands on him there w'll lie no need of lawyers,or judge ami jury; that the county will be saved an unnecessary expense. These remarks have come to the I ears of the attorney engaged foi Norton’s defense, and they do not propose to allow their client to sur I render until it is apparent that he will be properly guarded from the attacks of hot heads. Sheriff Tarver is regarded as a brave, conservative man. It is a s fact, nevertheless. that, if Norton t was in his custody at present he tJ would be unable to successfully re- I sist the infurated companion of the I I men he killed. While he would have | the desire to protect him he would not Jir.ve the means—and that fatal to the prisoner. j. “Norton is convinced,” said one of I his attorneys tins morning, “that l.e will be acquitted if tried before an impartial jury. He maintains that j he was thoroughly justified in all , that he did; that he resorted to his - gun only as a last resort in the de l fence of himself and his property. B He will not leave the state. When passion cools down, and we feel as sured that the conservative element 5 of our citizens will not permit Eiling- I ham's history to be blotted by the . lynching of an innocent man, then r he will be given up to the author- , The friends of the Birds are mak ing a vigilant hunt all through the county. They are determined That if he is in Etlingbam or near by they I will find him. Mr, R. H Brumby's Death. ' Mr. AI. Branhem received a tele -5 grain last night from Maj. C. 11.

PROHIBITION MOVEMENT. A Strong Fight Against Barrooms in Georgia- Evening Post Bl real’, ) 17} East Alabama Street., Atlanta, Ga., July 22.—There is going to be a big fight in the next legislature for the suppression wf bar-rooms in Georgia. A genera! law making it illegal to sell whiskey in quantities of less than one quart will be asked for. Five thousand petitions are now being circulated over the state and fifteen hundred ministers are at work for the law. Judge John I). Cun ningham, of Atlanta, is one of the leaders in the movement, and he and his co-laborers are very much in earnest. The gentlemen who are at the head of this movement think that now is the time to press their bill, the original package decision having made the liquor question a new issue. They also base hopes on the fact that the Farmers’ Alliance is against bar-keepers. CLOSING UF THE CENSUS. Census Supervisor Thibadeau is closing up the work of the census as rapidly as possible, a large force of clerks being employed at the office for this purpose. On .'Saturday the corrected state meat of the city's population was made out, together with a portion of the county’s, and sent on to Wash ington. Mr. Thibadeau says the corrected figures will make Atlanta’s population a little larger than the figures recently given and that the county's population will be between eighteen and nineteen thousand. 'The work of many of the enumer ators is now being gone over and needed corrections are bung made. This will consume some length of lime, and it is impossible to say just when the work will be completed. KILLED HIM ALMOST INSTANTLY. Shortly before 1 o’clock yesterday afternoon a negro man was killed by an incoming freight train. This oc curred on the Central railroad, a short distance this side of the bar racks. John Henry Webb, a preach er, was walking alwng the track just this side of Hancock’s crossing, when t he train came up behind him, knock ing him from the track and killing him almost instantly. He was a short, thick set man, about, thirty • years old. An inquest will probably be held this afternoon. ARRESTED EOR WIFE BEATING. Robert Bird, well known in At lanta, is under arrest, charged with having beaten his wife. lie stoutly denies the charge and says he never was guilty of such an enormity. He was arrested some days ago for hav ing misappropriated some funds he collected for Mr. T. M. Taylor, the scale manufacturer Mrs. Bird is suffering greatly at her home on Loyd street, from the effects of a wound in the back of her head, 1 which she says her husband in dieted.

PRICE 5 CENTS I ON THE TURF. ) i An Oceanic Exposition on St- Simons. i A Proposition to Make this Popular Resort Still More Attractive to Visitors.—A Race Course And an Exposition. Here is a grand and impo.-ing ’ scheme. It was wafted on the breezes to the keen ears of the Post last night. The Post, always nearest and dearest to the people, is the first to catch the vibrations of coming events. The plan'proposed is one to bring St. Simons Island to the front. St. Simons belongs to Brunswick anil what ever benefits her delights and benefits our people. It is proposed to bring St. Simons more promiently to the front as a place of amusement and entertain ment. This can be secured by lay ing out and putting into shape a race course one mile long near the centre of the Island. Grand stands, club rooms and stables of ample proportions will he erected, t.nd dur ing the merry month of May, turfs men from all over the country will be invited to come and contend for gold and glory. The possibilities in such an ar rangement are pleasant to antici pate. It would be at a season of theyear when noted stables from all parts of the county could be secured, and the magnificent climate of St. Simons would make the most exhilarating sports pleasant and enjoyable. But that isn't all. .
