no BE COLONIAL PLACE.
The City Not Likely to Improve the
Pound Lot soon.

The ordinances to turn over the city
pound lot south of Colonial park to the
park and tree commission to be added to
the park and TO change the name of Perry
street lane, where it Will front the enlarg-
ed park. to Colonial Place will doubtless be
adopted at the next meeting of council.
This does not mean, however, that the
pound lot will be added to the park inn
mediately The park and tree commission
has no money in hand to pay for tearing
down the old walls and sheds and extend
ing the plan of the park over the new adj
dition and Mayor Myers said yesterday
that the city does not intend to make an
appropriation to the commission for this
work This being the case the extension
will not be undertaken until next year,
when the commission will have a new
budget to draw upon.
Mayor Myers said that II will probably
be next spring before the addition is
taken in. The city, he said, did not ex-
pect to remove its property from the pound
lot Immediately, as there is no necessity
fog doing so at present. The ordinance
will be adopted, however.
DR.. G.. II. Stone, chairman OF the park
and tree commission, said, when spoken
TO about the matter, that the commission
will not undertake TO prepare plan for
the extension Of the park over the pound
lot until IL has been formally notified that
IL has been given charge Of the lot. One
thing the commission intended doing, he
said, was 10 establish a hot house and
nursery there for the purpose of growing
plants for other parts of the city as well
as for, the park itself.

He VIII BE In Savannah Under the
Auspices of Grace Church oct. s.
The last two winters have witnessed
strenuous efforts in Savannah to stimu-
late the literary interests and cultivate
the aesthetic taste.
The imitation of the chautauqua
and university extension sys-
TENS have inaugurated the method of
scientific and philosophic instruction by
means of the public lecture scheme, and
the plan has so developed that not only is
it employed by special organizations for
the purpose, but private enterprises adopt
it. and lectures are now among the most
agreea BILE Of benefit entertainments. Hon.
John Temple Graves has been Sc
cured by the trustees of Grace church to
lecture here, with the hope of reducing
the debt by which the congregation is at
present burdened.
No one, who is at all ia
miliar with Georgia forensic talent,
can question the ability of Mr.. Graves.
In finish of thought, in accuracy of rea-
soning, in grace of diction and polish of
style he cannot easily be excelled and
the topic Of his discussion, the New Wo-
man and the Old, is well adapted to sup
ply every opportunity to his talents.
Mr.. Graves will be introduced by the
Hon. +. G. duBignon, who needs no en-
conium from any journal in South Geor-
gia The lecture win take place Oct. s,
at the Guards arsenal 1t is hoped that
Savannahians will appreciate the oppor-
tunity presented them of hearing Mr..
Graves

sECTY. LEWIS AT THE Y. NJ. c. A.
His FOrcibIe Address on the Subject
of "Licentiousness"

The address yesterday afternoon at the
Young Mems Christian Association, by
Mr.. w. M. Lewis of Atlanta, on "Licen-
tiousness," was one of the most forcible
that has been heard in some time.
Before commencing his address Mr.
Lewis read the first eleven verses of the
eighth chapter of John. Among other
things he said. II advance the doctrine
to-day, whether you like it or not, that
the woman who has lost her chastity is
Just as much entitled to the respect of the
community as the miserable, unprinci-
pied wretch who helped her to lose it.
Things have come to a pretty pass in this
world when a girl who has made miss
step, has placed against her name that
awful and unfathomable word 'aban-
doned but the guilty man who was the
prime factor in the movement, the next
night is received in our parlors and well
coined by our own pure daughters and
sisters. With such a state of affairs ex-
listing we are fortunate if our own daugh-
tiers and sisters escape his grasp"
Il cannot refrain" said Mr..
Lewis, from placing some of
the blame upon the pure wo-
men and girls for the existing state
of affairs in our country, just as long as
the wretch is received back into society
and almost lionized, and the poor,
broken hearted girl is kicked out into a
merciless world by the women. Just so
long will RIGHTEOUSNESS be at a premium
and the unprincipled men indulge in It,
When 1t comes to the late issues in
politics, in regard to the single or dou-
bic standard in monetary affairs, good
and plausible arguments are advanced
upon either side, but when it comes to
the single or double standard as regards
purity in men and women, you need no
teacher other than your own common
sense to show you plainly that the single
standard is everlastingly right Let the
condemnation be as severe as it can pos
sibly be made, but have it tempered with
love and mercy and have it apply equally
to men and women"
Mr.. Lewis cited many instances that
had come within his observation, which
were very forcible. He closed by saw
ing "Impurity is crowded out of the
heart as the love for Christ flows in. So
l offer you the never failing remedy.
Jesus Christ and his redeeming blood. /"

DISCUSSED HEALTH MATTERS.
DIR. Runner Back From the Ameri-
can Public Health Convention.

Health Officer W. F. Drummer returned
yesterday after an absence Of several days
in the north, having been in attendance
at the annual convention Of the American
! Public Health Association at Buffalo.
The association is composed Of the health
officials and sanitary engineers Of the
United States, Canada and Mexico, and is
recognized as the leading sanitary body
on this side Of the water. The convention
was in session four days and many in
teresting papers were read and discussed
by leading sanitarians The most impor-
tant act Of the convention, to this section
a least. was the adoption of resolution
having in view steps to secure action by
the government to bring about an i'm
provement In sanitary conditions in the
Spanish American cities. Something of
this kind has been contemplated for some
time. The resolution is lengthy.
I'm brief" said DR.. Drummer, lit means
that we have fought yellow fever with
quarantine long enough and now the time
has come to fight 1t In its own home"
DR. Drummer was very much pleased
with Buffalo, which he says is not only
one of the most prosperous cities in
America, but one OF the most beautiful.
Buffalo is absolutely the cleanest city
/
did not believe there was a city in America
so clean The city has 205 miles of as
phalt pavement, and 1t is kept in perfect
condition"
Savannah had a show Of the convention
for 1897 There were several eager com
petitors for the honor, Nashville among
them, and 1t was suggested 10 DR.. Brun-
ner that he offer Savannah as a compro-
mise Unfortunately he was not ready to
do SO and besides, he was pledged to
Nashville. He viii, in all probability
make arrangements TO invite the conven-
ton to meet in Savannah in 1898.
DR. Harry Horbeck, Charlestons pop
ular and efficient health officer, was elect
ed president of the association for the en-
suing year, being the only southern man
so honored in the last ten years.
''Dr Drummer stopped in New York and
visited the emigrant inspecting station of
the marine hospital service on Ellis
Island DIR. J. H. White, who is well
known in Savannah, having been sta
toned here for several years is in charge
of the station.
DR. Drummer will make a report upon
the meeting of the health association to
the sanitary board.

AWAITING THE GRAND DUCHESS.
The New Plant Steamships Dis
pOsal.

There is great deal of interest in the
fact that the Grand Duchess, the mag
nificent new passenger steamship built
for the Plant system at Newport News,
is 10 temporarily at least take its place
on the Savannah line and will run be-
tween this port and New York under the
auspices of the Ocean Steamship Com
pany.
The Morning News announced this sew
eral days ago, but there are many people
who art stll inclined to regard it as
rumor. Although there has been no au-
thoritative announcement, 1t can be stated
as a fact that the Grand Duchess is to
become a part Of the Savannah line, and
that her maiden voyage will be made to
this port.
The vessel has not yet been delivered to
Mr. Plant, but the trial trip will take
place in few days, when the vessel will
be taken from Newport News to New
York. From New York she will come
to Savannah. 1t is said that while the
vessel viii be operated by the Ocean
Steamship Company that the compli-
ment of officers will be chosen by Mr..
Plant.
President II. NJ. Conner of the Central
of Georgia Railway Company is now in
New York, and 1t is said that the object
of his visit is to complete the details of
the deal with Mr.. Plant.
The Grand Duchess was to run between
Boston and Halifax in summer. She was
completed too late to be used on the Bos-
ton and Halifax route and the state of
affairs in Cuba is such that travel will in
all probability be very light between Tam
pa and Havana this winter Hence Mr..
Plants Willingness to dispose of the SER
vices Of the vessel during the approaching
winter.
IL looked very much at one time as If
Mr.. Plant was about to put the Grand
Duchess on between Charleston and New
York and it may be so later. The Grand
Duchess is larger than the Kansas City,
and is said to be The finest equipped vessel
of her size afloat.
