ITS OPENING REHEARSAL.
The Choral Society Begins It's Work for
the Season Under Bright Auspices.

The Festival Choral Societys opening
rehearsal last night at the Sunday school
room Of the Independent Presbyterian
church demonstrated that the interest
savannahians are taking in musical Gull
ture is not an ephemeral one.
There was present large gathering Of
ladies and gentlemen, among whom were
Savannah's best known singers, and all
of whom are deeply interested in the work
before them. The gathering was Of a ma
ture to encourage the new director, Mr..
Spencer NJ. White, in the work before him,
as well as all those who have charge of
the management of the society.
The evening was begun with a few
pleasant and appropriate remarks by Mr..
j. A. Bates, who has been a lion in the
cause, and to whose efforts, as much as
those of any one else, have been due the
organization of the choral society He
said, while Nov. 6, was rather a frosty day
in many respects, he was still a demo-
crat-in music. He spoke of the large
attendance at the opening and said it
looked like business. He spoke of the sue
cess of the first seasons work, the bright
prospects for the future, and said the
musical festivals had been a great sue
cess in the past, and that there were more
to follow.
The musical society, he said. is here to
stay. He believed with an able director
Savannah could build up such a musical
society as it had had in years past.
which had given this city a prestige in
the musical world, and with $50 members
in sight and the room in which they were
gathered open to them, there was no rea-
son why the society should not attain
the greatest measure of success. He said
he felt assured that in the new director
the society had the right man who would
accomplish much good for it, He con-
cluded by introducing Mr.. Spencer NJ.
White, the new director, who was greet
ed with applause.
Mr.. White responded pleasantly. say
ing speech would not be necessary on
his part, and that he, with the members
of the chorus, were there for work He
said that the most essential thing in
choral work was attention, and urged that
! every member of the society do his or her
part In this respect.
1t was apparent from the work of the
society during the evening that the in
structions of DR. Palmer were well remem-
bered and that the work of the last sea
son had not been forgotten. Those in
charge of the society are confident that
in Mr.. White they have an able director
and one who will devote himself untir.

JOHN WILLIAMSON DEAD.
He Passes Away While Waiting for Hi
Breakfast.


Breakfast.
Mr.. John Williamson died suddenly yes
terday morning between and 10 O'Clock
at his home at No. 1873 Whitaker street
The news of his death was a great sur
prise and shock to his many friends.
Mr. Williamson had been upon the streets
as usual the previous day, and while
his health had been poor for some time
there was nothing to indicate that he
was so ne n his end. Death came sudden.
Mr.. Williamson arose and dressed as
usual yesterday morning and came down
TO the dining room. While waiting for
his breakfast to be brought, he suddenly
expired, The fact was discovered by the
servant who came up with his breakfast.
The family was at once notified, but it
was too late then to be of any avail
The cause of death was aneurism of the
heart from which Mr.. Williamson had
suffered for several years.
Only the deceased and the intimate
members of the family knew of his con-
dltion, and that his tenure of life was
short, but the physicians had so informed
them and consequently his death was
no surprise to the immediate members
of his family.
Mr.. Williamson was AZ years of age
He was the son of the late John VIII
hanson, prominent and highly re-
spected citizen. His mother, a most
highly esteemed lady. died last year at
an advanced age. The deceased had been
engaged in planting near the city for sew
eral years He was a genial and accom-
plished gentleman and had a large circle
Of friends and acquaintance. He leaves
one brother, Capt w. w. Williamson.
The funeral will take place from the resi-
dence at noon to-day. The interment
Will be at Laurel Grove.

TO ENCOURAGE ATHLETICS.
The Athletic Associations Promising
Future.

AhS AbnA6blC ASBOC1aL1On' s PROMISING
Future.
At the last meeting of the Athletic As
sociation a report was presented of its
financial condition. After much discus
sion it was decided that a committee be
appointed to draw up a constitution and
bylaws for governing the association
looking to a permanent organization.
1t is the object of the association to
encourage and foster all athletic sports,
foot ball, tennis, golf etc. A good many
business men have Endorsed the plan and
it is hoped that before the end of the
winter the association will be on firm
footing and that an interest in all ath-
letic sports will be aroused.
Foot ball games have been arranged
with Augusta and Fort Mcpherson teams,
and 1t is expected a game will be arranged
with the Athens boys
The game with the Augusta team will
be played here Thanksgiving day, and
promises to be an exciting and interest
ing one. Mr.. Eugene E. Murphy is man.
ager of the team this year and writes
that his team are getting in good trim.
Mr.. Murphy is one of Augustus society
men, and the team is made up from many
of Augustus business men. Capt. Walker
reports that his men are hard at work
Practices are held every Tuesday and
Thursday evenings in the park extension.
There is usually good attendance, but
the captain hopes that every one who is
interested in the game will come out.
DR. Leonard Wood, army surgeon at
Fort Mcpherson, Atlanta, writes that he
has organized a team among the officers
and non-commissioned officers at the
garrison and will play the Savannah team
here on New Years day. This will make
an exceedingly interesting game, for the
Savannah boys, as several of the officers,
at Fort Mcpherson, have played on the
West Point teams.
Manager Finney has received a letter
from Mr.. ia. Stewart manager of tie
chronological team, thanking the associ-
alton for the courtesies extended to his
team while here on Oct 27.
Mr.. McRae, the half back, who
had his leg broken just at the
close of the game here, is recovering
very rapidly. Mr.. Stewart writes that
he is now able to be about on crutches.
The committee to draw up the consti-
tuition will meet some time during the
| next week.
