An Interesting Discourse by Rev. Mr..
hogan Last Night

An Interesting Discourse by Rev. MT.
Hogan Last Night.
The announcement that Rev. J. W.
Rogan, the pastor OF the First Presbyte-
rian Church, Monterey square, would de-
liver a sermon to young men attracted "a
large audience last night. The sacred
edihee was well filled when the
services began. The reverend speaker
preiaced mis- address by remarking that,
though 1t had been announced that the
sermon of the evening would be an ad-
dress to young men, he had not intended
10 convey the impression that what he
might say could not be heard with profit
by the elderly portion of the congregation
as well. The text, he said, was to he
found IN the Sth chapter Of HOsia, 9TH
verse, which reads
Thy calf, o SImaria, hath cast thee on;
mine anger is klndlcd against them how long
will Il be ere they attain To innocency?
The speaker began his sermon 10y giving
brief history Of the people Of Israel and
their rulers, priests ana princes, and
commented upon the destruction that
was threatened for their impIety aud
1dulatry, observing that the majority of
men have as their idol the greed for
money. They set up golden
calf to the worship OF which they
devoted all their waking hours, and
went so far as to refuse to take time
either TO sleep or to eat. Wealth, he con
linued, was essential in the work Of Caesar
as well as in the cause of Christ, and
there was no objection to any
one providing himself with rea-
sonable am ant OF money. In time
Of sickness gold will secure the attend
ance OF the skilled physician, and Will
provide the sufferer with many things
that alleviate the physical pain Of the
sick man, but all the gold Ia the world
would fail TO give the dying the comfort
and supreme happiness which the
iutercessi0n OF Jesus would brinx.
lie, therefore, cOunseled the
young men in shaping their life work
not to lose sight OF the duty which they
owed TO God. When fortune takes wings
and flies away, when health fails, then
Will the language OF the text, "lhy calf
. samaria, hath cast thee OIL" be remem-
Oered with telling force.

THF SANITARY INSPECTION.
How the Police Inspectors Look After
the CIty's Health.

The health of the cities of the South is
being closely watched by the whole coun-
try. The public appears to look for an
outbreak of some dread disease as already
certainty. 1t is taken for granted that
the first case Of cholera will appear in
some Of the cities Of the South Atlantic or
Gulf coast ports. While the sanitary con-
ditiOn Of Savannah is not as good as it
might be, the health authorities and the
police are erdeayoring 10 keep the streets
aud yards clean.
Every week the officers make an inspec-
ton. examining cellars, sinks and back
yards. Each policeman enters the con-
ditiOn Of every place in book, which at
the end of the week Is sent to the Clerk OF
Council. All garbage is required to be
deposited in the boxes and barrels.
occasionally bits Of paper and vegetable
matter are thrown carelessly into the
street. The paper is perhaps the least
Objectionable. Everything that is subject
TO decay should be carefully saved for the
garbage man. Fruit and vegetables are
especially liable 10 spoil at this season.
When they become unfit for food they at
the same time become dangerous to the
public health, and few hours exposure
TO the sun may Yitiate the air about an
entire building.
In this locality the inspection cannotb be
too thorough, and regulations that may
seem strict are not unnecessary. The
work OF cleaning the streets and out
houses and removing filth and garbage is
found 10 be best done under the present
system. All OF the matter Is taken 20 a
safe distance beyond the city before being
dumped. The truck farmers take what is
valuable as fertilizers, and, in mixing it
with the soil, destroy the disease-breeding

From the meagre reports received from

entirely covering the ground, while from
under the dark-green leaves peep thou
sands OF melons. The season Is ten days
late, but much of the fruit has about at
tanned it's full size.
The rains Of the past week were general
throughout the State, and were quite
beneficial to the vines. In many places
they were beginning TO suffer from drought.
Around Quitman the crop is said TO have
suffered from the storm. which was rather
heavy in that section. The first shipment
from that locality is expected about
July 1. At Naldosta, only seventeen
miles distant from Quitmau, the outlook
is reported very good. Growers there
expect to begin pulling for market June
%.
The Savannah, Florida and Western
Railway expects TO handle 800 car loads
during the season. Each car Is supposed
to average not less than LOCO melons.
The crop along the line of the Central
Railroad is reported 20 be much larger
than ever before. Farmers along its line
have been increasing their acreage for
three or four years past, and this year
il Is much greater than usual. The pros
pect Is good. No report has been maze
Of any serious loss by shedding

railroad company has not received full re-
ports, but il will probably handle 1000 to

Burke and Richmond counties the last
week In June.

Inc League Directors to Vote ON Mem
phis' Expulsion To-Day.
The Southern League Directors will
meet in Atlanta to-day TO receive aud act
upon the report of the committee appoint
ed to consider the charges against Mem
phis. Some errors have crept into the
published reports of the trial Of the clu5.
In the FIRST place, the President cannot
reasonably be expected to ''order its cX-
pulsiOn at once as the investigating
committee was appointed with special
instructions to report back TO a
called meeting Of the directors, who
should receive and act upon their
report. The President, therefore, has
nothing to do with the matter, save 10
preside at the meeting. In the second
place, says the Atlanta Constitution,
members Of the Atlanta nine" have not
sent in alfdavits against Memphis. On
the contrary, every member of the nine
has signed q statement that they were
well and fairly treated IN Memphis.
Mr.. Smith, of the Memphis club, tele-
graphs that the committee acted before
his testimony reached it, and asks for
hearing before the directors to-day. II
requires six votes TO eXpel club, and as
Nashville has declared in favor of Mem
phis, and as Memphis cannot vote, il will
take the unanimous vote OF the other SIX
clubs to eXpel.
With this outlook there seems to be very
little chance for Savannah getting INTO
the league through Memphis being put
out. There are no indications of Biz
mingham giving way, and at present
things look very much as though Savan-
nah would stay where she is,
so far as getting into the
league is concerned. Atlanta still holds
the lead in the race for the pennant, with
Nashville second and Birmingham at the
bottom OF the list.
The following is the summary up to the

NO SUCH COUNTY.

Judge Dolly, when young man at the
bar, made happy hit that brought him
before the public with eclat. Il was
soon after Warren county was created.
An unprinCpled rich man wanted To
cheat or steal a piece of land from bis
poor neighbor. The land was in Warren
county. The poor man employed Judge
DOOly, then a young lawyer. He denied
that he had ever sold the land.
Judge DOoly examined the deed which,
it was said, the poor man had given for
a certain sum of money. The rich man
had his witnesses ready, and on the day
of the trial of the case his witnesses
swOre positively that they witnessed the
deed given, and that it was in Warren
county and on such a day, swearing posi-
lively to the day of the month.
Judge DoOly put but few questions to
the witnesses, but wanted them to be ceF-
tain that the deed was gwen in Warren
county on the day they sw0Te it was.
They reaffirmed positively 1t was on that
day. Turning to the lawyer or lawyers
for the rich man, he said, proceed with
your argument" OF course it was ap-
parently smooth sailing for the rich
mans lawyers, as the poor man did not
have any witnesses. After they had fin
ished their argument, Judge Dolly arose
andsaid: 81 will not detaln the court and
jury long; l will prove the deed a forgery
and the witnesses perjurers.7
Smiles lit up the faces Of the rich man
and his lawyers.
Said Judge Dooly; 'The witnesses
swear that this deed was made in Warren
county on such day. ! hold IN NV hand
the law creating the county of Warren,
and ] see that Warren county was created
in December and not in November, and
there was no such county as Warren
when the deed WAS made.p
Had thunderb0lt fell in the court room
there could not have been a greater sur
prise The jury did not leave their seats,
but rendered verdict for the poor man.
Judge DOOly's reputation was made, and
from that time he had a tine practice until
elected Judge.

JUDGE DOOLY.
Stories of One of GeOrgia's Sons Who
Won Fame on the Bench.

won anne Oh the DeHbnt
Judge John Dooly in his day was a
noted wit He was very fond of a Joke.
His good nature and his ready wit saved
him number oftimes from being knocked
down when he had given otfense to some
brother member of the bar.
The story has been told of him that
when he was challenged by Judge Tate
to fight duel he accepted and then re-
fused to fight. He turned the whole thing
into ridicule and, when ii was threatened
that he would be published in the papers
as a coward, he laughed and said: 81 had
rather ill every paper in Georgia than
one coffin"
SAME WELL.
Judge Dooly was fond of his brandy
Whisky was not known in his day as
drink. While presiding on the bench he
told the Sheriff to get him a pitcher of
water. 'Not too much water Mr.. Sher-
if" he said, as the Official took the
pitcher, at the same time giving the Sher-
if sly wink. The hint was understood,
and the Sheriff brought the kind of water
the Judge wanted. BY the time the court
adjourned for dinner the pitcher was
empty.
After dinner, as the Judge took his seat,
he said EMr. Sheriff, let the court have.
a pitcher OF water, and from the same
well, Mr.. Sheriff" The Judge enjoyed
his brandy and warer for the afternoon.
RIDE IN, DOCTOR.
Judge Dooly would get on his sprees,
and when in that condition, was very
nervous. He came to Milledgeville during
one OF the sessions OF the Legislature, and
while there got on spree. He had 10 90
to bed 10 cool of, and required the atten-
ton OF physician.
In that day it was fashionable for the
physicians to wear spurs and high heel
boots, and the man who could make the
most CHATTER with his boOt-heels aud spurs
was doing the fashionable thing. There
was young physician in Milledgeville
who was called in to see Judge DOoly, and
as he came up the stairs making a terri
BILE clatter with his boot-heels and spurs,
Judge Dooly. who heard him coming,
called out: This way, doctor; this way;
ride right in, don't tie the horse, but
ride in"
