Last guntjay afternoon a fine spe cimen of the bald eagle visited the lake at the water plant, and after circling around for some time he made a swoop and came up with a bass in his talons. Dr. J. W. Barlow was near the lake and was an interested spectator of the incident.

JUDGE SANDIDGE Goes After the Soft Drink People In His Instructions to the Grand Jury. HE USES STRONG LANGUAGE. Judge Sundidgc at the opening of court here Monday in instructing the grand jury took advantage of the opportunity and explained to the grand jury the importance of enforcing the present local option law by indicting the offenders of it.

He said in the course of his remarks to the grand jury that the most common and ordinary way of violating the local option law was by engaging in the soft drink business. He explained to them that the persons engaged in the soft drink business had their regular customers as well as people engaged in other pursuits, and that they knew their trade also as well; that the) usually gave their regular customei whiskey or beer, when they came to their bar while they would in no case sell a stranger any thing but a soft drink. He explained to them that that kind of business might be carried on for a great length of time and no one suspect that the law was being violated. After explaining that there was very little difference in the various decoctions now 'sold from the real thing, all being made by brcw-cric, he called attention to the fact that the sale of all of them was very poor attempt at the evasion of the law and should be punished. In closing his instructions on the subject he said, in speaking of the soft drink stands in operation over the cdunty, "I don't know anything that is more demoralizing in a community than an institution of this kind." He asked the grand jury to in vestigate all violations of the law of this character and return indictments in all cases.
