EVACUATION OF THE CITY.
on July y, 1882. the British army
evacuated the town Of Savannah. and at
the head Of the American troops assigned
as its garrison, was Col. james Jackson,
a member of SOlOmon's Lodge. who re-
ceiyed the keys Of the town from the
British commander.
Brother jackson was an active and
Jealous Mason, and became Master Of
s0!omons Lodge IN 17Sj. and 17S9 sue
ceedlng Hon. William stephens, also a
Master OF solomons Lodge, as Grand
Master. This distinguished gentleman
and patriot was twice elected Governor Of
the state. and was also a United States
senator, which position be resigned that
ne might return home and save the honor
Of Georgia by exposing the GaZOO fraud
The first regular meeting Of the Lodge
OF whion there is any written record is
that OF January, 11S5. The first few pages
OF the minute book Of that period are miss
ing, but is evident from the record that
the Lodge was reorganized during the
previous month, December. 1854.
From that time TO the present the breth-
rem have never failed TO open the great
lights Of Masonry on every regular lodge
night. This closes what is necessarily a
brief outline Of the history Of the first fifty
years OF the existence OF SolOmOn's Lodge
A resolution was offered by Brother
Hamilton and passed requesting Brother
Estfll to furnish copy of his address to
the Lodge for preservation among its
archives, and also for publication in
pamphlet form.
After closing the Lodge the brethren
adjourned to the banquet room, where
supper was served, and an hour spent
very pleasantly.

TWO MURDERERs sENrENoED.
Walsh for Life and Wallace for 10 Years
in the Penftentiary.


in the Penitentiary.
Judge Adams, of the Superior Court,
yesterday sentenced John Walsh, con-
victed Of murder, and Moses Wallace,
convicted OF voluntary manslaughter.
When asked if he had anything to say
why sentence should not be pronounced
upon him. Walsh replied calmly that he
shot W. II. Dawson while crazed from
drink. Standing in the prisoners dock
Walsh repeated what he had said upon
the witness stand during his trial, that
he knew nothing about the killing and
that he had no personal feeling against
his victim.
In passing sentence upon Walsh, His
Honor referred to the circumstances of the
homicide, and remarked that the young
mans fate was selt.wrought. He chose a
life OF dissipation and gaming in prefer
ence to sObriety and industry. That ca
reer eliminated ia a terrible tragedy,
which bTough sorrow to his Victims fam
lily and shame upon his own.
The sentence was imprisonment in the
penitentiary for life.
On the night Of Sept. IA, before the blood
had dried on the blade with which he killed
Allen Bryant, Moses Wallace said ex-
citedly that there was no law which
would do anything to him for the
crime he had committed. During
his trial on Wednesday he looked
as though he had some misgivings
on that point. When the jury returned a
verdict of voluntary manslaughter his
last doubt seemed to have been removed.
and when the Judge yesterday imposed a
sentence OF fifteen years in the peniten-
he had been grieyously mistaken in what
he thought ne knew about law.
There Is a slight coincidence between
the cases of Walsh and Wallace. Wal
lace killed his man Sept. IA, and Walsh
shot his victim Oct. IA, just one month
| later. Both men were convicted on the
| same day. Walsh at 1 O'Clock Wednes.

the United States, TO which Col. Charles
II. Olmstead, c0mmandant Of the fort,
and now one OF the best known and most
respected citizens of Savannah, az
ter acknowledging the receipt OF the
order, heroically and laconically replied:
II am here 10 defend the fort. not 10 sur
render it." The return of the nag OF truce
from its unsuccessful mission wss

CONDITION OF STOCK IN MONTANA

The winter on the northern and south.
ern ranges Of Montana has been one Of
unprecedented severity, but the outlook At
present is encouraging for the wintering
of all kinds Of stock. Interested parties
have been sending doleful reports to the
Eastern press Of great losses on the Mis-.
souri, and Yellowstone ranges. These re-.
ports have been indignantly denied by
those who are in a position to know. 1t is
stated as a fact that the loss thus far vii!
not exceed one per cent. on the ranges
mentioned. The small proportion Of loss
may be attributed to the fact that the cattle
companies and associations have had ex'
pericnced men ON the ranges to keep the
stock together and out Of the creek bot
toms. In Southern Mc.tana, SO far as We
have been able to learn, the loss has beer
comparatively light.
