They Will Discuss Certain Measures of Importance to Manufacturers. The lumber manufacturers in the southern states are very desirous of establishing uniform rules for the classification and grading of yellow pine lumber. The lumber manufacturers of Georgia, Florida and Alabama will meet at Macon on Tuesday, October 28. Besides securing a closer union of the lumber interest of the States, another and more pertinent question . is to be bandied. The. inspection , law now being well prepared will be discussed, and after making whatever changes the ■ meeting may deem proper, the bill will be introduced in each of the legislatures of Georgia, Florida and Alabama, and possibly other states. The terms of the pro posed act will be entire l }’ in the hands of the meeting to determine. It is safe to believe, whatever law the lumbermen unite upon, will be favorably received by the several legislatures. To make the law ef festive it should be uniform in at least the three states named. Whatever else may be embodied in the act it is hoped that a system of lumber inspection will bo provided; that inspection at the mill or at some other point within the jurisdic tion of the state courts be absolute; that delivery to the buyer be made either at the mill or some point in the state where the mill is located. The object of those provisions are easily understood. ; Transactions in lumber may then be consummated within the jurisdiction of the state courts. Under the present system of lumber delivery the seller is prac tically without redress, if he should fall into the hands of an unreason able and dishonest buyer.

A justice of the peace is the inos abused officer in the face of the world In an article published a few day ago on the subject of justices of tin peace, an attempt was made to shov up some of the greatest evils attend ing the life of this eminent lega light. It is our purpose now to sugges a remedy for a large number of thes< evils. Every one concedes that a justice of the peace is a necessary adjunc to every highly civilized community Every one realizes the necessity o having a fearless and consciencioui •officer to administer our laws. li large cities where hundreds of casei are to be tried each month it is abso lutely necessary to have a justice o the peace whose dutv it is t< try these cases and thus save a high er court of immense labor and th< state and county immense sums o money. Now let us consider the duties de volving upon a. justice of the Peace All civil suits amounting to less that one hundred dollars are brought ii his court. Nine tenths of the cases of this kind are brought by ir.espon sible parties for insignifieanl amounts and against people not worth a dollar. If the justice of the peace refuse to sue the case the would be plaintiff has the justice ruled. Nearly all criminal eases hav< their origin in the justice court. A majority of the law breakers an worthless negroes and their prosecu tors are as notorious as themselves In many instances after swearing out a warrant for the arrest of at offender and after keeping him in careerated in the county prison, ai the county’s expense, the proseeuto is never heard of and, of course, th< defendant must be discharged, li such a case the justice of the pcaci goes without his costs and the conn ty is at a loss for th<J* board of thi prisoner. Now how can such a state of affain be remedied? There is but one wa} and that is for the legislature to en act laws compelling the plaintiff it :rll cases t> deposit the ‘'eventua condemnation money” or resonabb costs of the case with the justice o the peace [upon filing the papers it the case. Then all the charges ti the effect that a justice usually de tides a case in such a manner as ti secure Ins cost would have w weight us the payment of the cos was already made certain by du posit. No better plan has ever been srtg gested for the collection of delin quent costs. And the legislator win will introduce such measures inti the legislature will live to be blessei of all justices of the peace. "A COMMON CURSE.” Expressions From a Lawyer Tha Will Need no Explanation. “Do you know the most commot curse in Brunswick ?” asked an at torney of a Post reporter this morn ing. On the assurance that the reporter was unable to single out the mos common of the common curses fount in this city, the attorney continued “Well I’ll tell you what it is. 1 is the confirmed habit »f the ma jority of married men to record thei property in the names of their wive* I think 1 can assert, without an; fear of successful contradiction, tha the records will show three fourth of the married men of Brunswiel who have real estate, hold sue property in their wives’ names.” “Why is this?” inquired the r< porter. “It is simply to avoid the conib cation of their property for the liqu dation of their debts. It is a plait open and shut gume ami men wh > adopt that under one word han method do not pretend to offer an feasible solution for such conduct. “Wbut is the tendency of the pol 1 icy yon refer to V” I “Why, us I have already said, i | is a curse to the city.

It will be the grand excursion of c ' the Okeefenoke Tribe, No. 13, Im perial Order of Red Men, to St. Simon’s. The Pope Catlin and the Egtnont have already been chartered, and i everybody will have an opportunity to enjop the festivities of the ocea lt siod w During the morning, baseball I games, bicycle racing on the beach j and dancing at the pavilion will constitute the principal features of enjoyment. In the afternoon, bc e ginning at 2 o’clock, the shotgun tournament takes place. , e The Glynu Gun Club, Forest City Gun Club and the Waycross Gun Club have already entered. Clubs )f from Thomasville and Jacksonville is are also expected to enter. several handsome prizes, which the Post will mention on Monday, } have been ordered, and will be do )t nated to the winning team. In or der to correct the rumor that the , Red Men had abandoned the idea of ie giving prizes, Mr A. 11. Baker called at the office of the Post this morning “Let it be definitely stated that , several handsome prizes will be < n , hand. They have been ordered from n Macon, and are expected on Monday. n We intend to make Thursday an enjoyable day to all who attend.” j. Railroad Rumblings. , t The unusual delay of the trains on e the East Tennessee, Virginia and e Georgia railroad yesterday was oc ; e casioucd by the burning of the track at Wheaton. The people of Bruns e wick were thoroughly worried over the non arrival of mail and freights. e The burnt track was repaired as j. soon as a force of hands could be s carried to the scene and the trains g have resumed their schedule. a The railroads are hustling to keep ! up their reputations. Four wrecks last week, with an aggregate of fif )r teen killed and scores injured is a le pretty fair week’s work. That is n sufficient. Don’t try to break the , e record, as a coffin trust has been j. formed. Sun lay a passenger train left At lanta at 3 o’clock p. m. and arrived , g at Macon exactly at 5:30, making y the run in the remarkable time of j two hours and thirty minutes. This j train ran a distance of eighty seven miles and made twenty stops. The l e average estimated speed was some lt - thing over forty miles per hour. Few n roads in the country equal this. to There seems to be no doubt but e _ that there will be a change of man -0 agement or ownership of .the Coving -10 ton st Macon road at an early date. It is said th : Georgia, Caroliua <fc Northern and the Richmond & Dan ville still have their eye on the Cov y ingtun <fc Macon and would like to ’ buy. The Covington & Macon has southern connections at Macon with 10 ( the East Tennessee, Central and I Georgia Southern <fe Florida. At Athens it will have northernconnec tion with the Georgia, Carolina <fc Northern, as well as the Richmond <fc lt Danville. Police News, n .

BRK E 5 CENTS FAY'S DIAMOND'S What Has Become of Those Precious Jewels? Howell Osborn's Valet Still Lan guishes in Jail—Fay’s Lawyer Seeks Collector Erhardt- Valued at SIO,OOO. g a “What has become of Fay Temple ton’s diamonds?” is a question that has been asked considerably of late. The New York World, of the 21st. inst., says: “Henri Ilirschy, Howell Osborn’s valet, languished in Ludlow street jail yesterday, as bail was not offer ed for him to United States Commis sioner Hitchcock, who will act in the matter in Commissioner Shield’s absence. Fay Templeton sent her lawyer, A. J. Dittenhoefer, to see Collector Erhardt about the dia monds the valet smuggled for her. “Ex-Judge Dittenhoefer repeated to the collector the statements he made in court, which the World pub lished. He said that the diamonds belonged to Miss Templeton, that she owned them before she went abroad and that she had worn them both here and in Europe. Collector Erhardt answered that, before he could take any official cognizance of the case, these statements, with any collateral evidence, must be etnbod ied in affidavits by the person claim ing to be the owner of the property. These affidavits must then be sub mitted to the collector, who will in vestigate the matter and reach his own conclusions,which he will submijj to the Secretary of the treasury whati ier rccoiunii ndations he i|fl ii.'tuimdu.

He could not overdraw hi* allowance, so she put her diamonds in pawn. When the time arrived for her to return under her contract neither of them had any money, so she was forced to leave the jewelry in pawn. A short time ago, so the story went, Osborn obtained money, redeemed the jewels and sent them to her so that she might wear them during her engagement here. “Before leaving Collector Erhardt, ex Judge Dittenhoefer assured him that he would soon furnish him ample proof, in the shape of the nec essary affidavits, that Miss Temple ton really owns the diamonds.” JUST FROM NEW YORK.
