FOOT BALL MEN ORGANIZE.
The Savannah Athletic Association
Planning a Programme.

Inc savannah ACnletlc Association
Planning Programme.
Savannah may look forward to some
good sport this season.
The foot ball team has reorganized and
proposes to play number of games this
winter if it can find opponents to meet it.
Efforts are not being made to arrange a
game for Thanksgiving day here. Cor
respondence is now being conducted with
the Augusta team with this purpose in
view and very probably the Augusta
boys will be seen here on Thanksgiving
\ lively interest in the sport has devels
oped in foot ball in that city. The news
papers are encouraging it, and it is said
that there is plenty OF material there for
a fine team.
Correspondence will also be entered in
to with the athletic associations of all the
neighboring cities and colleges and efforts
made to arrange for series of games for
the season.
Macon is said to have a good team in
the city, and Mercer University, it is
said, is anxious to retrieve her former
defeat at the hands of the Savannah
boys.
Atlanta, too, is expected to muster up
enough pluck to put team in the field.
A meeting of the young men interested
| in the sport was held night before last
and an organization was perfected, to be
known as the Savannah Athletic Asso-
citation. Mr.. L. w. Walker was elected
president MIR II. c. O'Byrme, vice presi-
dent, and Mr.. j. w Golden, manager.
More than enough experienced and able
| bodied young men have volunteered to
guarantee a tirst-class foot bali team.
Among them are j. b. Connolly, r. G.
O'Byrne, Frank Papy, j. Papv, b. Hip
klns, Frank Morris, A. Krenson and Ju-
liam Hartridge. These are all candidates
for back of the wire. Among the candi-
dates for the wire are Hogan, Wyness,
Keenan,. Rossiter, Coonihan, Walker and
Cunningham.
Mr.. L. w. Walker, president of the Ath-
letlc Association is u new conner to Sa-
yannah He is a graduate of Lehigh
university and played on the foot ball
team there, where he made fine record.
The majority of the men named are col
lege graduates Connolly and O'Byrne
are remembered for their fine work on the
Catholic Library team, as are also
Wyness and Cunningham. Rossiter and
keenan, have both made records forthem-
selves. Hipkins is q Lehigh university
man, and fine player. The two Paws
made good records in the Y. NJ. c, a.
games last season. Altogether it is a good
aggregation and the new association has
right TO anticipate successful career.
The team is practicing two nights a
week now under the direction of Presi-
dent Walker, and will be in good shape
by Thanksgiving.

THE LOTUS eLEE CLUE.
The Concert at Masonic Hall Under
the Auspices of the Y. n. G. a.


The Young Mems Christian Association
has engaged the services of the Lotus
Glee Club for the first of their series of
entertainments for the current season,
and the concert by this well-known and
celebrated combination of artists will be
given at the Masonic hall tonight under
their auspices.
The Lotus Glee Club is composed of
William II. Raymond, first tenor; Clarence
M. Collins. second tenor; Charles L.
Lewis, baritone; Clifton Davis, basso (:
Frank J. Smith, conductor
The club, in announcing its fourteenth
season, states that it win have the as
sistance of Miss Minnie Marshall whose
popular recitations have added so greatly
to the success of its entertainments.
During the past three years the club
has sung in tweuty-eight different states,
given over 600 concerts, travelled nearly
10000 miles, and has the remarkable
record of having never missed an engage
ment
The press all over the country gives
the club the highest of Endorsements and
criticisms of only favorable nature In
speaking of the concert given in that city,
the Baltimore Sun says IF it were
given to one singer to utter vocal har-
monies instead of single tones, some such
affect as the four singers of the Lotus
Club make in their perfect accord might
be the result. The club divided the hon
ors with Miss Marshall, whose dramatic
ability was brought out in selected reel

WILL THEY TAKE THE ROAD
A Question for Augusta and SaVan-
; nah Stockholders to Decide.

A Meeting in Savannah Next Week to
Consider the Matter-Justice Jack
son Extends the Time in Which to
Decide-The Road Not Likely to be
Withdrawn From the Central Sys-
tem-other to Be Matters Discussed
by the Meeting.
The Augusta and Savannah railroad
has not yet decided, as it was required to
do under the order issued by Justice Jack
son, whether it wants to take back the
road from the Central or leave it with
that system under the terms of the pre-
sent lease, and the order of Justice jack
son which stated that the leased lines
were to receive no rental beyond the
amount of the net earning of the leased
property.
The stockholders will hold meeting
in this city at the office OF Hull 81 Lath
rop, next week. Saturday, Nov. II, for
the purpose of taking the matter under
consideration.
THE TIME EXTENDED.
Under the order. they were to
have decided within thirty days
after the report was made to the prop
erty by Receiver Conner, but the matter
was laid before Justice Jackson during
the hearing at Washington, where it was
shown that it would be impossible, under
the charter, which requires a thirty days
notice to call a stockholders meeting and
decide the matter. For that reason an
extension of sixty days was given them
in which to make the election.
Ii is hardly believed, however, that the
Augusta and Savannah will withdraw
from the Central system. The net earn
ings of the road have been fully equal to-.
if not a little more than the amount of
the rental, which is $4,000 per annum.
1t is hard to tell, however, what the road
is doing now.
A CHANGE IN THE SITUATION.
The Port Royal and Augusta and
the Port Royal and Western Caro-
lima railroads, which were formerly
feeders of the Augusta and Savannah
while they were closely allied to the Cen
trial system, are now competitors of that
road and of course some of the business
has been lost as result. The road is a
good piece of property, however, and its
chief value is largely q result of its being
member of the Central system.
While the hearing was in progress in
Washington Mr.. Frank Ii. Miller, attor-
ney for the road, presented d petition to
Justice jackson asking for a rule requir-
ing immediate payment by the Central
of the amount of the rental due the road.
In the course of his remarks with regard
to the matter, Justice Jackson did not
seem to favor the granting of such a rule,
and Mr.. Miller had it dismissed forth
with without urging it. The meeting to
be held here next week will also consider
any other important business which may
come up at the time.

Conflicting Stories About Lothario
Hagood and Els Various Travels.
The question has been frequently asked
as to what has become of the gay Mai
Hagood, of many wives, since his
numerous escapades in Georgia, Florida
and South Carolina.
1t was recently stated in Charleston,
when the case against him there, for
bigamy, was called in the court of gen
eral sessions and he did not respond, that
he had gone 20 Texas, from where he had
taken passage to that bourne from which
no traveller returns. The story was given
some credence at the time, but it has
since been learned, and stated as a fact,
that he was doing Canada, probably with
similar matrimonial projects in view that
got him into sucha series Of troubles in
this section.
In the meantime, his Savannah wife,
who made a pretty good show
ing to the effect that she was the original
Mrs. Hagood, has brought suit for 5000
against her former landlord here, Albert
Entelman, for turning her out OF house
and home.

Coroner Dixon was notified and investi-

The coroner was satisfied that the old
man came to his death by an overdose of
laudanum. 1t is possible that he might
have taken the dose to relieve his
sufferings, but the inference was, taking
in view all the circumstances, that he
had taken the poison with suicidal intent.

TO HAVE a GAME SUPPER.
President Keiffer Will Pay His For
felt to the Forest City Club.

The Forest City Gun Club will have a
game supper tonight. 1t will be remem-
bered that some time ago President Keif-
fer and Capt. John Juchter agreed to set
tie long standing completion between
the two teams, of which they were the
heads by a match between themselves.
The challange came from Capt. Juch-
ter and was for round of 100 birds
the forfeit to be a supper to the club by
the loser. President Kieffer's team had
been laying out Capt. Juchter's at
almost every round, but when it came to
the last test the presidents luck deserted
him and he was beaten by ten birds.
1t was concluded not to hurry the sup
per, but to wait until the game season
was more advanced. 1t was decided this
week, however, that the time for a prime
supper had arrived, and tonight was
fixed upon as the time for the club to en-
JOY the presidents forfeit. The supper
will be given by George Sehwarz, who
will furnish the oysters and fish. 1t will
be game supper throughout. The mem
bers of the club have been at work for the
last two days killing game for it, An
abundant supply of partridges, doves and

will enjoy it more heartily than President
