TEE YOUNG MANS CHANCE.
Speaking of the prospects of young men
going out TO Manitoba, Mr. Sandison says
there Is no difficulty in getting on, II the
emigrnnt Is willing to work hard and has
level head, but he is particularly emphatic in
advising no ono TO go there without capital,
who Is not ready to put his whole powers OF
labor into the work For the first two years
he worked very hard himself, at manual
labor, but now he finds his time fully occu-
pied in managing his large farm.
He Is convinced that Manitoba Is destined
to be the agricultural country OF the Domin-
ION; even now people undervalue the vitality
OF the soil, as he considers il is much stronger
than the general public imngines. From his
own experience he is of tho opinion that the
much talked OF summer frosts, will be COM
paratively harmless, as soon as the inhahit-
ants come to thoroughly understand the cli-
mate, and those parties who have, so far suf-
fered thereby, have been themselves to blame
in not doing their work in the proper sea-
sons.

The prima donna of the Conried Comic
Opera Company, which will play a three
nights and matinee engagement in Savannah
this week, is Be5tna Padelford. The name
is familiar one in Savannah. 1t recalls
! the marriage Arthur Padelford, son of the
late Edward j. Padelf9rd.
About four years ago young Padelford
| met the young lady. who is now an opera
singer, aud who was Miss Bette Ordway,
daughter of Gen. Ordway, whose handsome
| residence faces the capitol grounds in Wash
ington, and fell in love with her They
we're married in Washington, D. @. The
honeymoon was spent abroad. They did
not find married life a success, and in q few
months separated.
The wife, who had been q daShing bells in
Washington society for several years pre-
viou1y, determined to adopt the stage
She naturally had @ musical voice and q
systematic course of instruction had so de-
velopea it that she was rega fded as a sweet
Singer among Washington society folks
She found al engagement with Conrieds
Opera Company, with which she made her
debut In The Kings Fool, and in which
she won distinct success. Through the ex-
perienced training Of Heinrich Conroid she
has become one Of the most popular prina
donnas before the public. Among the songs
Is my Love Is F0lc toIumDla."
1t was recently reported in a New York
paper that tho Padelfords we're divorced a
few weeks ago. Mr.. Padelford is living in
New York now. Miss Ordway was the
acknowledged belle OF White sulphur
Springs during her visits there several ses-
sons age. Ii was at the White Sulphur that
she won considerable notoriety. Among
the society people of that place were several
young men and young ladies. At q private
supper after an evening of social anuse-
me (, champagne flowed as freely "a water,
and the select party became unusually gay
Miss Ordway spoke Of an ancient German
custom that required beaux to drink wine
from the slippers OF their sweet
hearts. She had no idea that she had
brought the old custom into fashion, but
quick-witted young man, who was a favor
lite admirer, asked why it should not pre-
vail in the gathering. The idea was imme-
diately accepted by all the gellants, and the
result was challenge TO Miss Ordway
from the devoted youth. She accepted i6,
removing her dainty slipper and filling it
with he sparkling wine. Amid the plRudits
OF the party the young man drained the
slipcer.
The news Of this uncommon event leaked
out and got into the newspapers. Mis-

she found her social companions talking of

5000 People Drop n Nickel in the
Belt Lines Pocket.
The mule as a motor is a thing of the past
on the Belt Line. Not only have the mules
been relegated t. the background. but they
have been sold, and the company's stables
are empty.
The change to electric power was made
yesterday. Supt Ssussy put on four cars,
which were run from O'CLOCK in the morn
ing until 1924 at night on regular schedule.
The cars were the attraction Of the city
from the time the first one went out in the
morning uutil thu last one went in at night
Tue road was lined all day long with people
who came cut just to see the electric cars
pass, great many never having seen an
electric oar before, having missed seeing the
Every. car was loaded down
literally packed and janmed
from door to door until there was no more
room, and the conductors ceased to stop for
passengers. The greatest interest in the
new cars was manifested by tho colored
people, who were willing to spend their last
nickel for ride Some of them rode
around the line three or four times. The
children, too, were worked up to
a high pitch of excitement, and
every child, black and white, that saw the
cars pass, got ride if nickel was TO be
bad. In TACT, kids we're thicker than
grown people, and they were packed in
promiscuouEly, black and white together,
like sardines in a box. AL they wanted
was to ride, and many a shrewd little
rascal beat the line ont Of his fare.
1t is Understanding the plumber to say
that the Belt Line carried 5000 passengers
during the day with the four cars. Each
car carried from one hundred to two hun
bred passengers trip, and made twelve
trips.
Crowds visited the Belt Line Office
on Habersham street, and the
power house was an object of
great interest. Several watches were
magnetizsd and stopped by coming in too
close contact with the dyhamos. Their
owners will learn better after paying several
dollars to have them put In ruAning order
again.
The cars were run by the former street
car drivers, with the assistance of tho cleo
triciens who have boon at work on the line.
The day passed without an accident or
hitch Of any kind. Rather slow
time was made on account of the
men being new to uae work, but the time
was better by many minutes than with mule
power. The motormen and conductors all
wore handsome blue uniforms. The drivers
are drivers no longer, but "motormen,"
The rules with regard TO stopping only at
street crossings, and then only on the
side Of the street in the direction
which the car is going,
that is, after crossing the street, were
strictly adhered to. People who don't wait
to get left must look out for this hereafter.
-Four electric cars will be run to-day, the
same as yesterday. The other cars have
nearly ell been wired" and Supt. Saussy
expects to pat on eight cars, the full equip
ment, tomorrow.

WORK FOR THE LAWYERS.
Eight Murder Cases to Go Before the
Grand Jury.

Eight Murder Cases to Go Before the
Grand Jury.
Tho superior court will adjourn over to-
day, on account of the opening of the court
house. The work Of the December session
will begin in earnest tomorrow.
There is great deal Of work before the
court. especially criminal business. Solicitor
General Fraser will go TO work
at once and clear the jail, and to
that end will present the evidence in
about fifty criminal cases to the grand nv
tomorrow, Wednesday and Thursday.
True bills will probably be returned in
most of them. Eight murder cases are
among the number, as follows:
Frank Barclay, for the killing of James
Respess at the Central railroad depot last
summer.
The negro Dick Davis, for the killing
of Sallie Smith.
John Webb, for killing Ananias Hill at
Montieth Oct. Is.
Ben Arkwrighu,s sfor the killing of Dave
Rhodes.
Lucian Dotson, for shooting another ne
gro in a,River street barrooni.
Albert Evans, for stabbing Willie Wash
ipgton.
The negro Mitchell, for killing his baby
few weeks ago.
death Of Mrs Billiard and others by blow
ing up the Billiard boarding house.
All of the prisoners charged with murder
are colored except Barclay and Robbins. Il
is long list Of crime, and there Is chance
IT. two or three hangings at least. Some
OF the murders were Of most brutal char
acter. All the colored prisoners are charged
with killing negroes and the whites with
killing whites
The case of Barclay, for the killing Of
Respess, will doubtless be the most vigor-
ously prosecuted, eminent counsel having
been engaged by both sides. It is said that
evidence will be brought to bear upon the
case which will place an entirely new
phase upon it.
The time OF the court between now and
Christmas will be CHIEFLY devoted to Grim
inal business, and Solicitor General Fraser
expects to clear the jail, and get through
with most of the murder cases by that
time.
The criminal docket of the December
term is always heavier than for any other
term by reason of the interval from August
to December, during which there is no
court. The docket for this term is heavier
than it has been for many years, however,
and has more serious cases. There is also a
good deal of civil business to come before
tho court, and in oil probability the Deem
Der term will run into the March term.

keR Smith OF Darien delivered the charge
to the pastor and also the charge to the
congre cation.
The charge to the pastor was based upon
SC. Paul's words to Timothy, "Preach the
Word" 1t was an earnest and devout ap-
peal to the new pastor to adhere strictly to
Gods word i'll his teachings. The congre-
CATION and especially the elders of the
church were exhorted to uphold the pastor
in his work, giving him that ass stance
out which the church cannot accomplish
the greatest good.
Dr. Vass, who occupied a pew through
the service, stood during the delivery of the
charge, after which he took his place in the
pulpit. The choir sang the installation
hymu, and the new pastor delivered the

Memorial services in honor of the late
Bishop B ckwith were held in all of the
Episcopal churches of the city yesterday
morning. The large congregations showed
the esteem in which the bishop was held not
only by EpIscopalians. but by the members
of other denominations.
The services at Christ church were held
in the Sunday school room, which was
crowded. The chancel and bishops chair
were draped in black, with the symbolic
inter and staff.
After the regular morning service Rev.
Robb White, rector of the church, preached
O scholarly and eloquent sermon on the de-
ceased prelate. He took his text from H.
Sam, iii. IS: "Know We not that there is a
prince and great man fallen in Israel to-
day."
''The church Of God" said Mr.. White,
"hath never been without great men-great
as heroes, martyrs, leaders of men, great
