MERCER UNIVERSITY.

Medals Withdrawn BY the Original

MACON, GA, March 15.-The students Of
Mercer University are under obligations to
o. P. s. B. z. Willingham for some COM
Portable benches that have been placed on
the new hall grounds, and also to Eads
Neil & Co. for a backssop. With these ad-
ditions to the park the boys are now ready
to play ball in earnest. The drst Of a series
of games with one OF Maoon's amateur
mines was played Friday afternoon, result
ing in a score of 9 to 2 in favor Of Mercer.
This park wall, no doubt. become as popular
with the citizens Of Macon as did the foot
ball grounds.
The~city of Macon proposes to spend be-
tween 50 900 and $4,000 in identifying
Tattnall square in the near future. Then
Mercer will be the resort Of Macon.
Wesleyan, or, at least, the surrounding
streets and parks, have been, and always
will be, the favorite loa6ng place of Mercer
boys.
For good reasons, best known to them
selves, the donors of the senior composition
and junior oratory medals have notified the
president that they can no longer give the
medals. This was indeed sad disappoinE.

senior composition medal, which will here
after be called the Marsh medal. The
seniors of 1913 will always feel kindly TO-
ward MIR. Marsh and Mr.. Freeman,
through whom the gift was obtained.
Though no contributor has been found for che
junior oratory medal, Mr.. Freeman, a good
man and friend OF Mercer that he is. has
consoled the junior orators by writing them
that they are assured of their medal, for
''where there is q will there is a way )" and
b has the will.
Had President Cleveland waited a few
days the president of she Phi Delta Society
cUdld have informed him that it was best to
withdraw the Hawaiian annexation treaty
as the question was decided in the society
Saturday morning after a very able aud
lengthy discussion, Several of the pro
fessors were present and complimented the
members on the standing of the society. 1t
may be interesting to some Of the readers
of this piece TO know that OF the five pros
fessors in college four are members OF the
Phi Delta Society.
Some weeks ago we suffered the loss of
two very popular boys, who we're called
home to witness the death OF their father,
MT Peteet of Madison, Ga. The young
men were members Of the junior class. Since
leaving they have written that it will be
impossible for them to return, much against
the hopes and wishes of their schcolmates.
In them A. T. o. fraternity loses two Of its
best members.

10 QUICKEN rHE MAILS.
A Needed Change in the Work OF Il
Po5tofdce.

a Needed Change in the Work OF the
PostOfhce,
While Uncle Sans mail service has been
brought up tn a high point Of efficiency,
there is still q change which might be made
which would not only expedite matters
considerably, but would make q provision
for any emergency in the case OF a sudden
temporary loss Of an employe in the rail-
way mail service.
The change and improvement is the plac-
ing Of the clerks In the large postoffices
throughout the country under the same
supervision and requirements as those un-
der which the railway mail service is con-
Quoted. This change, it is learned, is soon
to be made in the Savannah postoffice, not
because Of any legal government require.
ment, but merely as q matter or con-
venIence, and as an aid to the railway mail
service out Of Savannah.
The clerks In the Savannah postoffice are
pretty familiar with the Georgia scheme
and on April Is they will be required to
stand an examination on the Florida scheme
The railway mail clerks in Georgia
Florida, South Carolina and Alabama. are
under the supervision of Supt. Terrell, with
headquarters in Atlanta, and they are re-
duired to know the schemes for making up
the mails in the four states. From these
schemes they learn not only the location of
all the postotfices in the states mentioned
but also the route by which mail
may be sent quickest from where
they collect it to any postoffice at any time
OF the day. They must know the schedules
on all the roads in the state, and the mail
they handle must be forwarded by the
quickest route.

be met in the large postofiices For in
stance, If letter for Jesup should come in
too late for the Savannah, Florida and
Western mail and it could be sent by the
Central to Macon and from there to
Jesup by the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia quicker than by waiting for the
next Savannah, Florida and Western mail,
II should take that course
The postal clerks in the rostofiices are now
under the supervision of the postmaster
and only have to pass the customary civil
service examination and are not required to
know the railway mail service schemes. If
they could be put under the supervision of
the railway mail service and required TO
learn these schemes and routes by which
the forwarding of mail could be expedited,
there would be great Improvement in the
service, as we'll as vast saving to the gov
eminent in the employment of extra rail-
way mail clerks who would have TO do this
work on the trains. Provision would also be
made for the temporary loss of any of the
railway mail clerks, as their places could be
supplied for the time In case of emergency
by the clerks in the postoffice
Chief Clerk Green, who is an able rail
way mail clerk himself, having made 90
per cent on the Georgia examination, will
require his men to brush up on these
schemes for the states in this section. Why
should not the requirement be extended to
all the large postoffices in the oountry4

FOR THR OLD FOLKS BoM

Church Collections to BE Given to the
Little Sisters OF the Poor.
AS the Little Sisters Of the Poor are en-
deavoring to raise funds for the purpose of
building a new home for the aged, the col
lectioDs at both the cathedral and st. Pat
ticks church tomorrow will be turned
over to them.
The sisters are also soliciting subscriptions
from tbs public, and the object for which
they appeal will doubtless bring forta q
liberal response. The Old Folks home, to
which these noble women are devotiuR their
lives, is non-sectarian institution, place
OF refuge for the aged of all religions who
need a shelter
Bishop Becker has given his appreciation
of the home In the following letter:
SAVANNAH. GA, March ?, 1898.
As the Little Sisters of the Poor $50 we'll
and favorably known everywhere desire now
60 build an establishment such as their institu
ton requires, and since they do this in order to
aid the aged, without any distinction of creed,
/ give to their undertaking not only best wiahes,
but entire approval, with full permission to
solicit help from all sources Charitably Inclined.
The building now occupied by them is entirely
too small for even the fewest occupants hence
the need OF q new and more commodious edihce
which they purpose erecting in Savannah.
Most sincerely in DINO. THOMAS A. BECKER,
Bishop of Savannah.
