Wardenship.
AT THE CHURCHES TO-DAY.
Social Events of the Wesk-..Gensral
News Of a Quiet Satur-
day.


there seems but little doubt that F. Il.
Lemon will be The man. Mr.. Lemon,
when interviewed by GLOBE repre-
sentative yesterday, stated that although
he had received no official notice of his
appointment he had reason to believe
that he would be appointed within afew
days. If Mr.. Lemon is chosen to fill
the position soon to be vacated by Dep
uty Warden Langum it will not be the
result of any political scheme, as Mr..
Garyin has stated that politics cut no
figure in this matter, but that he will be
appointed on his merits and because
Mr.. Garyin recognizes his ability to fill
the position. Mr.. Lemon came to this
city in February, 1876, and has since
then been employed at the prison, where
he has become acquainted with prison
life and discipline. He is man
of few words, and although strict he
is not man that will resort to harsh
treatment when it is not necessary. He
has made prison life study, and has,
during the last two years, visited many
prisons In various parts of the country,
and has CLEANED great deal of infor-
nation from his close observance of
prison rules and regulations. Mr..
Lemon is high Mason and is we'll and
favorably known in this city, where he
has many friends who will be glad to
see him appointed to position which
he Is we'll able to fill. With Mr.. Gar
vim as warden and Mr.. Lemon as dep
nty, there is no reason to believe that
there will be any lack of discipline at
the prison.
