to destroy the silkworm industry IN

a HIGH-HANDED FINANCIER,

The Star-spangled Banner of the
Globes Ruler Up for Stealing.
Grand Supreme Ruler A. F. Fields (col-
ored of the Diamond Progressive Star
Spangled Banner Of the Globe, Lodge No. 1,
was in Justice Patterson's court Saturday
upon a charge of larceny after trust of $50.
The case was called at o'clock, and it was
not concluded until after o'cl )ck. FIELDS
prosecutor was w. +. LightJorne (colored).
w. w. Osborne, Esq, prosecuted the case,
and w. Pease defended the prisoner. From
O number of witnesses on each side the story
of the affair was repeated over and over.
Briefly stated, Fields, the founder of the
lodge in Savannah inaugurated banquet.
which was given in a Harris street hall last
November. Fields, it was alleged, placed a
chairman at the head of the finance COM
mittee, who allowed him to engineer affairs
The chairman received the funds, but
turned them over promptly to Fields, who
did not account for them. 1t was also
charged that Fields disposed of part of
the tickets though chairmen of the
various COMMITTEES, but that the majority
of the tickets were disposed of by himself.
There are the tickets unaccounted for.
The grand supreme ruler was put upon
the stand. He contradicted every charge
made against him. William Lightborne,
who is prosecuting him, said that Fields ex-
PEELED him and several other members of
the finance committee because they tried to
get settlement of affairs. Fields was at
the head of the society, he said, and nobody
was allowed to make statement or take
any part In the meeting except the grand
supreme ruler.
J. Dorsey, the oolored undertaken out IN
West Savannah, was an interesting witness.
He said that Fields taught the members of
the lodge that he was leading it by moving
oil in of nc cd
said that Fields had the members under his
thumb.
Argument was made by counsel, and
Judge Patterson bound Fields over in the
sum of $500 to answer at superior court the
charge against him.

o. At the collation. it is permitted to use bread
all kinds of fruits, salads and vegetables The
use of butter cheese, milk, and eggs is also toll
Grated by virtue OF long established custom
z. General usage has made it lawful to take in

ments, and of generous almsgiving.
IL. The Paschal time extends from the first
Sunday of Lent till Trinity Sunday during
which time all Catholics who have attained the
use of reason are bound TO prepare themselves

| son OF Lent is proper time, also, for children
to so to their first confession, which they ought
TO do generally when about years of age,
Parents and teachers should see to this.

PUTTING UP THE LAMPS.

The Electric Light Company Getting
the Wires Up as Rapidly as Possible.
The delay in getting the electric light
wires in time to have them in place during
the last full moon has been disappointing to
the people in the southern section of the
city, and also to the Brush electric light
folks, who say that the service cannot now
be given over the new wires until the next
full moon, which will be March 6, at which
time all that part of the city lying south of
Liberty street will be lighted, the new
wires and lamps being brought into requi-
sition.
The work Of putting up the wires began
day before yesterday, and will be pushed
vigorously. All the posts are up south of
Jones street and on portions of Macon and
Charlton streets, and the "bonnetsn are in
place on the lamp posts as far north as
CASTOR street.
There is a general desire that, in addition
to the lights already located, the tower
lights in the southern part Of the city be re-
tainedS as there are no lights provided for
south of Anderson street, and it is conceded
by Alderman Harmon, chairman of the
street and lane committee, that the limited
number II lamps will not be adequate to a
thorough lighting Of the shaded streets,
and especially when the trees are in full
foliage.
The retention of the towers mentioned. it
is Claimed, is necessary 70 supplement the
other lights, which in no instance are less
than two streets apart,

The first Savannah peas of the season,
four crates, were shipped by Saturdays

to advance the growth of the vines. Last

second paintings are in bud and bios
som. While Florida peas. arriving in good
condition, command 81 a crate in New
York, Savannah peas ought to bring from
So so to Sc, as the Savannah crates are
larger and the peas are always of better
quality.
Potatoes are pretty much all in, and
those who risked planting two weeks ago
have fair prospect for early shipments if
there Is no cold weather and the season
continues favorable.
More peas and potatoes have been put in
this year than last year. and better returns
are expected. The dry weather in Florida
will, to ssone extent, shorten the crop there
and tend to keep prices well up. G. S.
Durling of New York, who is making a
tour of the berry and vegetable sections of
Florida, writing to his agent in this CITY.
says that crops are now looking well. He
adds that South Florida is full of drummers
for fruit and vegetable houses in all the
