Professor Bryant's department and forty
one children reported for school. The
department under the supervision of
Miss Curtis remained closed on account
of that lady's attendance at the institute
held this week at the Spings. 1t is esti-
mated that she will have about fifty in
her class and the school will number in
all between ninety and ninety-fve
scholars. The present term will occupy
four months and end Xmas time. After
the children have enjoyed a vacation of
three months, they will return to school
with much pleasure and take up their
new studies with renewed energy.
Martin Barrett, who has been working
single handed and alone at the Equator
mine, owned by him Chas. Mix, and
others, encountered quite a nice streak
of ore one day last week, which is in
creasing in size and improving in quality
with every round of holes. We congrat-
ulate the owners, and especially, Mr..
Barrett, on his pluck and stick-to-it-ness.
This property lies in as good location as
any mine in camp, being bounded on
the north by the Gait, on the west by
the Queen of the Hills and on the east
by the Cumberland, all of which are
frst-class properties. There is no reason
why this property should not prove to
be one of the best silver producers in
camp.

MASONS In A MIDDLE.
The COlOTed Order Wants the Court
to Decide Who Is Grand Master.

Two Grand Lodges as a Result of the
Macon Meeting and Both Making
Demands for the Funds-Terry
Claims to Have Been Legally Elected
and Campbell Charged With Fraud
ulently Counting Himself in-Said
That Judge Hardeman Refused to
Decide tn > Financial Dispute.
There is a nice little row on among the
colored Masons of Georgia, in the words
of the petition fled yesterday in court
the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of
the Most Ancient and Honorable Frater-
nifty of Ancient, Free and Accepted Ma
sons for the State of Georgia"
The fight has taken the shape of a petit
tion of Col. j. H. Deveaux and others
against John D. Campbell and others fled
in the superior court. 1t is claimed that
at the last meeting of the grand lodge,
held in Macon June 26 to 20, William E.
Terry was elected grand master and ]. r.
Steele treasurer for the order in the state.
SAYS CAMPBELL COUNTED HIMSELF IN.
The petition sets forth that there were
present 334 lawful votes, of which NUM-
Der Terry received 2l7 1t is charged
that Campbell, who had been grand
master during the previous year, de-
clared himself elected, and G. l.. Bowen
elected treasurer. This alton is char
acteri2ed as a willful and deliberate
fraud perpetrated in the election count.
Campbell is charged with counting
the votes Of eight lodges Which
have never been chartered and
which consequently had no right to par
ticipate. Never before, it is stated, had
fbaaN4 Il. l. -
such practice. Campbell knew they
had no right to vote the petition says, and
1t is claimed he counted the proxies of
eighteen lodges that were for certain
reasons set forth as unlawful and void. ,
WANTS TO KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH IT.
William H. Spencer, who is a party
plaintiff to the suit, was appointed u
member of a committee during the meet
ing to collect dues and attend to certain
other matters which came up Spencer
who lives in Columbus collected about
S513 during the meeting, and demands for
this amount have been made both by
Terry for Treasurer Steele and by Camp
bell for Bowen, who, he claims, was
elected treasurer Spencer believes
that Terry was legally elected
grand master, but under the cir
cumstances he is in a quandary
and became a party plaintiff that the
| court might give him instructions as to
what course to pursue. Both the defend
ants reside in Chatham county, as do most
| of the plaintiffs.
| Spencer wants to know what he shall
| do with the money, and Terry and Steele
want to be declared the legally elected
officials of the order for the state, as they
have good foundation for their claim that
! they were legally elected.
This state Of affairs shows that there are
too grand lodges, each OF which lis fight
ing for supremacy. Judge Hardeman of
Macon refused to decide to whom the
money should be paid and did not pass on
the question as who is the legal grand
master. Judge Falligant granted an order
restraining Campbell and Bowen from in
terfering with Spencer, and will hear the
case next Saturday, July 2S.

IN NEW QUARTERS.
But Again Doing Business at the Old
Stand.

A lively scene was enacted on Bay
street yesterday afternoon. 1t was re-
minder of the confusion caused about six
months ago, when wagons were busily
hauling goods from the burning building
then occupied by NJ. Ferst's Sons & Co.
Great wagon loads of groceries and pro-
visions were yesterday filling the street
but moving in the opposite direction from
that taken Feb. 5, when the fire was
raging inside Of the walls Of Ferst':
former store.
A large, handsome building has been
erected in the place of the one which was
destroyed, and Messrs. M. Ferst's Sons
81 Co., moved their immense stock into
their new quarters yesterday. They will
be ready TO do business at the old stand
on Monday.
The stock of this enterprising firm will
be conveniently arranged on the five com
modious floors of their new and hand
some building, and no delay will be
caused Incidental to the removal. II
was quite an undertaking to attempt TO
move such a large assortment of goods in
one-half day, but the complete arrange
ments for handling the stock accom-
pIished the feat.
The new mammoth safe, weighing five
tons, was placed in the oflce yesterday
and in few days the furniture will al
be arranged. A better equipped estab
Iishment than M. F'erst's Sons cannot be
found in the south.

ROBBED BY THE wAYs1DE.

A Couple of Countrymen Have a
Costly Experience in Town.
About the only item of interest in the
recorders court yesterday morning was
the charge against ]. G. Bunch made by
A. ]. Winburn and William Bird of rob
berry
Bird and Winburn came to Savannah
several days ago, with carload of cattle
to sell. After selling the cattle they
started out to take in the town. In the
early hours of Friday morning they found
themselves in the neighborhood of Hull
and Hous ton streets. They both felt
very sleepy and finally dropped down on
stoop in South Broad street lane Some
body came up to Bird while he was on the
stoop, and, going through his pockets, Sc
cured S27l, the proceeds of the sale Of the
cattle.
Winburn, who had not yet dropped off
to sleep saw a man with white hat
bending over his companion, but paid no
particular attention to him and presently
dropped off asleep, too. The men were
reused up by the inmates of the house
trying to chase them off the stoop and
then discovered that their money was
gone. The robbery was reported at the
police barracks, but the only description
which they could give of the robber was
that he wore a white hat.
Detective Bossell arrested young man
wearing white hat, who was known to
be in the neighborhood at the time of the
robbery. Winburn at first thought this
was the party whom he had seen going
through his friends pockets, but finally
concluded that he was not the man. j. c.
Bunch, another white man, who wore a
white hat and was in the neighborhood at
the time of the robbery, was next ar
rested and was before the recorder YES
terday morning.
Winburn declared positively that Bunch
was the robber, but the latter proved that
he was in the nelghborhood on other bust
ness. The recorder concluded that white
hats were too plentiful to be sufficient
proof against a man for robbery, and or
dered Bunch's release.

Talk of Building One Along the sa-
vannah and Isle of Hope Railway.
There is some talk of building a new
road TO Thunderbolt to follow the line Of
the Savannah and Isle of Hope railway.
The property along this line belongs to
the Merchants and Mechanics Land
Company. This company has stated its
willingness to deed to the county 100
foot right Of way from Estill avenue to
Thunderoolt, distance of two and three
quarters miles, provided the county will
make a roadway of it.
The proposition includes the issuing of
low rate bonds at par with which to
construct the road provided the county
could not do it in any other way. There
has been much talk about issuing long
term bonds for the purpose Of improving
county roads, and this has been recon-
mended by one of the recent grand
Juries OF the superior court. This right
OF way IL Is said would make one Of the
best roads the county would have
There would be a road all the way from
the city exchange 10 Thunderbolt, out
Bull street TO Estill avenue and then
direct TO Thunderbolt
The offer OF this right-of-way, IL is un-
derstood, will be made 10 the county on
condition that roadway is constructed
There would be very little work on such
road, as the right-of-way Is practically
cleared for the specified width the entire
distance. This would give a shorter road

The recent strikes in the west did af-

the other delicacies for which he is IA

The car fare is surely cheap enough, and
if it isn't, Logan will pay the fare, and
not take it out of the meat either.

MAKING EARLY PREPARATIONS.
The New Board of Trade Dinner to Be
an Elegant AFFAIR. L-A--


The board of trade is beginning in good
season to make preparations for its next
annual dinner, which will probably be
given next March. The members of the
board have not yet taken action on the
matter, but it is understood that large
majority of the members favor it, and
that they will probably take formal ac-
tion with regard to the matter within
the next week or two.
The idea is to give one of the most at
tractive and unique affairs that has ever
been seen in Savannah. Mr. W. j. Wat
son of the De Soto, who is in the north,
was requested by Capt. d. G.. Purse,
president of the board of trade, to be on
the lookout in New York and other
places which he might visit for any new
and unique ideas with regard to such af-
fairs, as it was intended to make
the next dinner given by the board
of trade one of the best and
and handsomest in arrangement that
could be prepared. Capt. Purse says, too,
it is the intention to send out invitations
to some of the best known orators so as to
strike them before they have made en-
gagements for that date or time. In
this way it is hoped to have present some
of the well known and popular orators of
the north

TO EXTEND ITS LINES.
The Oity and Suburbsn's Latest Move
in the Railway Fight.


The Abercorn and Whitaker street
car lines will be extended tomorrow to
the White Bluff road crossing of the
Savannah, Florida and Western railway,
by putting on car between the Second
street depot and the crossing. The car
will connect with all cars on the Whita-
ker and Abercorn street lines, which
meet at the depot, and will run from a.
m. 10 9p. m.
The fare from the crossing to any point
on the Whitaker or Abercorn lines, two
rides, into town and return will be 5
cents. Tickets will be sold on the car.
The fare from any point on Whitaker
or Abercorn streets to the crossing will
be 3 cents. No round trip tickets will be
sold on outgoing cars.
This is the latest move in the street
railway fight. The purpose is to cut into
the travel of the outside belt of the Elec-
trio railway and to draw the travel of
Southyille and the extreme southern sec
tion of the city and from points south of
the city. The fare on the outside belt is
5 cents. The extension of the Abercorn
and Whitaker street service will reduce
the fare from the southern suburbs to
those who buy return tickets TO % cents.

everything in them was destroyed. I'm
