the southern part of the city, and whose
depredations were written up in SUNDAY

WANT A GREEK CHURCH.
The Greek Colony Anxious for Con-
gregation.


gregation.
A Greek church is a possible addition to
the religious world Of Savannah.
Savannah is not only metropolitan but
cosmopolitan and possesses people of all
creeds, climes and nationalities. There are
over fifty Greeks in Savannah, including
several families, but the majority of them
are men without families. They have a
monopoly of the corner fruit stores
and fruit stands and do three-fourths
of the retail fruit business of the city. The
recent visit to Savannah of the Greek priest
Kallinikos Konellas of San Francisco for
the purpose of baptizing the child OF Pano
Pope, the fruit dealer at Congress and Bar
nard streets has aroused them on the sub
ject. Pope said yesterday that the next
prize he draws in the lottery he will devote
TO building q church, which virtuous re-
solve is highly approved Of by his country
men.
Pope has already distributed 81, 900 of the
SIS, 900 he won among the various orphan
asylums Of the city, and the expenses at
tending the baptism Of his child have been
nearly another thousand. He has been a
high plunger at games Of chance in his day,
and now that fortune has favored him be
is making good use OF its benefits.
The baptism is said by those who wit
Ceremony. 1t took place at Pope's house,
and was attended by about ell of the Greek
colony in Savannah.
The priest was arrayed in the imposing
vestments of the Greek church, which are
somewhat similar t. those of the Catholic
church, but with much more ornamenta-
ton. The ceremony lasted over an hour, and
consisted chiefly Of invocations in Greek.
The font in which the child was baptized
was about three feet wide by three deep, of
galvanized metal, and made especially
for the occasion. The priest
took the child in his hands
entirely naked aud immersed him three
times in the water, according to the practice
Of the Greek religion. Olive oil was then
poured over his body. Peter Pano made
the responses in Greek and d. Calmerist
stood godfather.
The ceremony was a very impressive one
and all taking part were very devout. The
name given the child was Pablo or Paul
Pope.
Champagne and cigars were freely served
to those present after the ceremony.
The priest left Savannah for New York,
where he goes to baptize child of one of
the Rail- bros. large cotton shippers

The Electric Railway to Be Running
In Three Weeks.

The Electric Railway to Be Running
In Three Weeks.
The Electric Railway Company expects
60 complete its wires across the Savannah,
Florida and Western railway track on
Gwinnett street to-day. The wires are run
overhead and forty-foot poles are used,
rising twenty-five feet above the ground.
This is done in accordance with a recent
agreement between the Savannah, Florida
and Western railway and the Electric rail-
way, so as TO allow the Electric railway to
operate it's cars up 60 the track on each side
Of the crossing.
1t was necessary TO connect the wires on
both sides 70 secure the current, the power
Eouse being located east Of the crossing.
Two OF the company's cars arrived at the
Central railroad yard yesterday morning in

j. g. Brill Manufacturing Company, and
the bill OF lading for two others has been
received, The cars are of handsome blue
black with old gold trimmings.
The car motors have arrived. and all the
machinery for the power house.

the exception OF the transfer table and the
foundations for the machinery. which are
now being constructed. A six~inch artesian
well was completed at the power house yes
terday with flow of eight feet above the
surface, and flow of fifteen feet above the
surface will probably be attained.
The track is all ready for the cars, aud il
the current could be turned on to-day cars

way Company expects to begin running
cars before the middle Of next month.
The question Of crossing the Savannah,
Florida and Western railway track on
Gwinnett street is still where it was left by
the decision Of the supreme court, sustain
ing two injunctions of the lower court
against the crossing at grade.
