SLATTERY IN SAVANNAH.

SAYS HE IS AN A. P. A.-POLICE REQUIRED
 TO KEEP DOWN TROUBLE.
 SAVANNAH, Ga., Feb. 2S.-A guard of fifty police surrounded the Odd Fellows hall during Ex-Priest Slattery's lecture tonight. SeveSRl hundred people gathered in the streets, drawn by curiosity. There was no disturbance, however. The police kept the crowds moving, and whenever knot of people stopped within block of the hall it was ordered to ''move ou. .' Seven hundred people were in the hall and listened to the lecture, which was dis cussion of theology of the Roman Catholic church and an alleged expose Of the secrets of the confessional.
 The lecturer dealt largely in ridicule and satire. The crowd in the hall was quiet and orderly, and seemingly in sympathy with the lecturer. At the close of the lec- ture Slattery announced that American Protective association organizers would be in Savannah within twenty four hours. He said that he was a member of the Amer. ican Protective association, but denied that he was a represe ntative of the organiza- tion. The crowds on the outside of the hall awaited Slattery's appearance, and there were fears that an attempt might be made to attack him. A detail of police was drawn up in front of the hall en trance and escorted the ex-priest to his hotel, half & dozen blocks away.
 The crowd followed, but there was no trouble. hundred or more were at the hotel when he arrived. The street was cleared and Slattery, who was accompa- nied by his wife, entered the corridors. sympathizsr who shouted an offensive epi- thet at tho ex-priest as he passed, and who was arrested for disorderly conduct.
 Ten arrests have been made so far for participating in Monday nights disturb ance. Three were given ten day sentences in jail and one was fined S10. Six are yet to be given hearing. Late tonight the eleventh arrest was made.
 Slattery announced tonight that he would go from here to Atlanta. His wife lectured this afternoon to several hundred ladies on the sisterhood of the church and the confessional.

HARRIS SUCCESSOR.
THE SUBJECT DISCUSSED BUT NO ACTION
 WILL BE TAKEN.

THE SUBJECT DISCUSSED BUT NO ACTION
 WILL BE TAKEN.
 WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.-There had been some informal talk during the past few days as to the advisability of electing new president pro tenn, of the senate, the talk arising from the supposed necessity for such action owing to the fact that the present term of MT. Harris expires the 4th of March. There has been no scon- ference of republicans on the subject and a prominent leader of that party said tonight that he did not believe that there would be any.
 The consensus of opinion is that there is DO necessity for such election now that the chance of succession to the presidency has been removed by the statute providing for such succession. Under other conditions such election would be ecessary. Some democrats and republicans, too, also be- lieve that MT. Harris will hold over unu the next session anyhow. The senate is a continuous body, and MT. Harris has been re. elected and bis credentials filed with the secretary of the senate. A number of names have been suggested as possible can didates for the office, but it is not believed anything will be done until the senate meets next session and the whole subject of reorganization is reconsidered.

Her mother was the favorite maid of
pretty Georgia girl before the days
of secession, and had given her baby
this queer-sounding name because, as
she explained to her young mistress:
Sugar is sweet, en- so is honey, en-
de badly is sweeter dan elder, en- so Use
named her fer bofe."
Mary Henson laughed at her serv-
ants fancy, but she was an indulgent
mistress and made no real objection,
so that Hannah's baby was henceforth
known to Hazel Dell farm as ''Sugy-
Honey"
To mistress and maid, as to mother
and child, the happy years went by
with presage of the honors of war in
store for that summer land and that
sunny-hearted people. Yet when the
first gun of Fort Sumpter sent its thun-
derous echoes round the world, it
found Mary's father already the colonel
of regiment on it's way to join his
command, leaving his plantation to
the care of his wife and daughter and
few trusted servants. These had
proved themselves faithful in the days
of peace and prosperity. They were
now to be found not less so through
years of adYersity and peril. Hannah,
with jack her hush band, and Sugy-
Honey were the main house servants.
.'All own in the world and all i love
I leave in your hands, were the last
words of Col. Henson as he rode away,
and events proved that he knew in
whom he could trust
The day came at last, when the war,
with all its changes, was over, and
Hannah had heard that her master was
coming home. rs .a 58g
Four years of civil strife had left
their impress on the hillside and val
ley, as we'll as in the hearts of the peo-
pie. The Henson mansion, which, had
been built in colonial times, of stone
brought as ballast from the mother
country, was now heap of ruins, and
Its ashes had been trampled by sway.
'ng linessofs men grappled together in
the deadly struggle for victory. An.

sad news, it was with lighter heart
she journeyed toward her old home.
Arriving in the neighborlood, she
sent for old Hannah, who gave her the
particulars of her fathers condition,
and together they had many an anxious
discussion as to what was best to be
done aI
''De doctor say it wouldn't do fer you
ter go ter see him. He is so sot again
yer fer havin' de captain; der shock OBJ
seem yer might kill him." Hannah
said on one of those occasions. But

name is, Dohow, en- she kin take de
baby ODER dar, en- maybe marstern

Thus it was arranged, and the next
day when Sugy- Honey did not appear
as usual, Col. Henson seemed restless,
and finally asked where she was.

answered Hannah. 81 taut she might

Col Henson said no more, but he
evidently missed the willing hands
and feet and the CHEEKY presence to
which he had been SO long accustomed.
AS he sat on the porch that evening, a
silent, disconsolate figure, he heard a
jolly laugh and baby's pretty cooling.
1t proved to be Sugy-Honey and her
new charge.
The baby was a lovely little fellow,
just beginning to prattle. When Sugy-
Honey put him down from her lap he
toddled in the most matter-of-fact way
to Col. Henson, put his hands on the
colonel's knees and chatted necessarily
in his pretty, lisping lingo. a,a agI1
The colonel soon commenced to take
a little interest in farm matters; to in
quire of Jake how many of the old
negroes were still on the place; what
crops he planted, and to give some ad-
vice as to their cultivation. Yet it was
plain that his day began when Sugy-
Honey came with the baby and ended
when they left. He still had no idea
who the little one really was, for all
were afraid to tell him. e..aHh .
Thus the summer days passed.
Hannah often reported progress to
Mary, who was cheered by her IA

He had never yet mentioned her name.
