three months ago the disease again
made its appearance. and while an
operation was performed and a por-

THE WINTER'STALE
Beautifully Told by Hannibal
A. Williams.
HIS LAST EVENINGS RECITAL.

A Shakespearian Study Most Charminely
Presented to . Large and Intelugsnt
Audience 1t Y. m. q. A. Auditorium-A
Master Of His Art.
Hannibal A. Williams, of New
York. gave a select recital of Shake
speare's comedy, 1.-The Winters
Tale" to q large and appreciative
audience at the Y. NJ. c. A. audito-
rum last evening. The reading
was artistic, forceful and beautiful.
Mr.. Williams recites from memory
entirely. giving at the beginning q
carefully prepared descriptive intro
duction, and together with run
ming commentaries. including a
preceding outline and analysis
at the opening of each act. The
characters are introduced in a most
remarkably unique and comprehen-
sive manner and each is invested
with an individual tone Of voice, ex-
preston and gesture characteristic
Of thoroughly defined personality.
The intelligence of the hearers is at
once appealed to, and even those not
wholly familiar with the play cannot
fail to appreciate it. Such a form of
literary entertainment cannot be
otherwise than edifying and profita-
BILE in the highest sense. Mr.. Will
liams' interpretations of the crea-
tions of the immortal bard of Avon,
are so clever, SO realistic that the
reader appears to give way to the
characters themselves. Leontes,
king of Stella, jealous, uncompro-
missing. tyrannical, unjust and then
Inundated and repentant. was given
with splendid affect. Then, with
equally true portrayal was presented
in beautiful contrast the sublimely pa
tient. forbearing. magnanimous and
cruelty outraged Queen Hermione.
The same may be said of the other
characters appearing and developed
during the action of the comedy.
The literary worth of the production
and the elocutionary merit of the
reader are interviewer with most
fascinating effect, and the listen
err approached the conclusion with
a higher conception of the au-
thor while being enraptured with
the reader.

ton OF the Laws Against Gaming.
The Indictment against William J. Odel
and Joseph Harris charging them with
running a gaming house IN violation OF
the state laws. was taken up in the city
court yesterday. The court permitted the
defendants TO be tried separately. and the
case against the former was the first taken
up.
The Indictment found was based on the
establishment known as Olells Turf Ex-
change. which was located in the rear
Of the Citizens Bank. before the old
building was torn down. The defendants
were represented by Messrs. p. W. Mel
drim and +. C. duBlgnon, who filed de-
murrer to the Indictment when the case
was first called up. The ground Of this
plea was that the Indictment was not
sufficient in Jaw in that It did not specify
the certain game or device which the de-
PENDANTS We're charged with permitting
others 20 come together and play at
on account OF the insufficiency Of the in
dictmsnt 10 was stated that the defend
ants were not able 10 fully prepare their
defense.
Judge MacDoneu overruled the demur-
a once fled a bin of exceptions pendente
lite holding that the judgment Of the court
was in error. The case then went 10 trial
Several witnesses were sworn to- testify
as to the existence and character Of the
establishment which Odeu was charged
with running, and several descriptions Of
how betting on horse racing was carried
on. were given for the courts enlighten-
ment.
The point in the case. however, Is al
most altogether one Of law. Solicitor
General Fraser contends that the selling
of pools on horse races is a violation of the
laws against gaming the business carried
on coming under the general head Of
scheme or device for the hazarding OF
money.
The defendants do not deny the exist
ence Of such a business nor do they deny
they are in charge of il, and for this rea-
son no evidence was introduced in their
behalf. Their attorneys claim that there
is no violation Of the laws against gaming
in the business they carry on and that the
law has nothing in IL to show that such
is the case. After the arguments. Judge
MacDonell announced that he would
charge the jury this morning at 10 o'clock.
The question involved seems 10 be almost
wholly one of law, and it is one which
in this state the supreme court has not
yet passed upon. The result will be await
ed with much interest.

ROYAL BAKING POWDER.
THE FIGHT FOR TOURIST RATES
The Freight bureau Tackles the
Pennsylvania Railroad

AeEnsFlFHu1a railroad.
The Savannah Freight Bureau is taking
steps to secure railroad tourist rates
from the north to Savannah if they are
to be had. There seems to be no reason
why Savannah should not be on the same
footing as Jacksonville and other Florida
Points. The railroads centering here have
assured Commissioner Knapp that they
will use every effort to bring about the
adoption Of tourist rates The only line
Directing is the Pennsylvania railroad.
The reason it assigns in its objection is
not deemed valid one, as the Pennsyl-
vania would receive the same amount that
1t now gets on round trip tickets be-
tween New York and Washington.
All or the steamship lines have round
trip rates and the refusal of the Pennsvl-
Vanla, Mr.. Knapp says, can only be re-
garded as an arbitrary ruling unsupported
by reason.
Commissioner Knapp has written Cen
eral Passenger Agent Wood stating that
Savannah has perfected its arrangements
Tor winter tourists, having one of the fin
est hotels in the south, with all the tour
list advantages that all other cities base
their matter upon. The Pennsylvania mas
rates to Asheville, brownsville. Bruins
~ N-NA boAAAt9s anu the lit-BnL
pereau sees no good reason why it should
decline to make rates to Savannah
Under these circumstances. Mr.
Knapp says in his letter. Il beg that YOU
Will give this matter prompt and careful
attention, and advise me of your con-
clusion early. If necessary, 1 am salts
ned that the city Of Savannah viii send
on committee to investigate the reasons
why you decline to issue such rates when
they are issued by you to points which
have no greater claim for them than this
city"
Tourist rates are now in effect from all
points except those covered by the Penn
sylvania railroad, and the freight bureau
hopes to bring it to terms soon.
