The Predicted Metcoric storm De-
Iayed From some Cause.
Superintendent Otis Ashmore of the pub
lie schools, had the large High School
telescope out for an airing last night At
Mr. Ashmore's invitation several gentle
men viewed the beauties of the heavens
with the unusual assistance of a tele-
scope of high power. No new stars were
discovered.
The pyrotechnics Of the heavens. her
aided for last night and the night before
by several of the newspapers, did not
make their appearance In any unusual
display. The meteors were eagerly watch
ed for by many people, but they were not
repaid by witnessing anything marvellous
Mr.. Ashmore says that the movements
of the meteors cannot be calculated to a
nicely. and that delays may chance in
their appearance at the times calculated
What this delay is caused by this time
was not determined. 1t may have been a
hot box and the meteoric shower NAV vet
roll around
1t win not be until November, 1899. that
tho earth in It's trip around the sun will
encounter the thickest part of the me-
teors. A revisitat!on of the scenes of 1893
may be then expected.

TO APPOINT CITY REGISTRARS.
The Registration Commission VIII
Call for Suggestions.


Call for Suggestions.
The city registration commission held
a meeting yesterday afternoon at 4:SO
o'clock for the purpose of arranging the
preliminaries in connection with the reg
istratlon for the coming city election in
January
The three members of the commission,
Judge Robert Falligant of the superior
court, Judge Thomas NJ. Norwood of the
city court and Judge Hampton L. Ferrill
of the court of ordinary, were all pres
ent. The commission first reorgenized by
eleeting Judge Falligant president and
Judge Ferrill as ordinary, was requested
to preserve the minutes of the board.
The commission then went into dis
cussion of the city registration law, af-
ter which an advertisement was prepar-
ed in accordance with it, calling for the
names in writing of such persons as are
eligible for appointment as registrars, as
provided by the act of the general assem-
bly,, approved Dec. u. 1893 The notice is
addressed to the two conflicting political
interests in Chatham county," as one
registrar from each faction is to be ap-
pointed at each of the places where the
registration willetake place.
Prior to the election of two years ago
there were twenty registration places, one
in each of the twenty city districts, which
necessitated the appointment of forty reg
istrars. The city council at its next
meeting, will probably provide for the
registration places.
The notice for nominations for regis
trars calls for these names to be in the
hands of the registration commission by
O'Clock a xUhfr oh
1t Will hold another meeting and select
the registrars. The notice will be pub
lished in the local papers this week The
books will be open for registration in
December, but only on four days. AS a.
prerequisite to registration for the city
election, all parties are required to have
paid all taxes due the city up to date
and all tayes due the state and county
since the adoption of the constitution Of
1877, including the present year.

AN EVENING OF sETTOs.
The Pastime Clubs ReOpening to
Take Place This Week.

The Pastime Clubs Reopening to
Take Place This Week.
The Pastime Athletic Club will be re-
opened Tuesday night with a bout be-
tween Billy Duke of Baltimore and Larry
Mcdonald of Savannah. This will be for
a decision, twenty-five rounds or more.
Duke and Mcdonald have. met in the
ring twice before, and both settos were
spirited exhibitions. One, a ten-round
draw was one of the hottest exhibitions
ever given in the club. The other was a
twenty-round go, and the decision was
given to Mcdonald after an extra round
had been fought.
Both men are clever boxers, and are
very evenly matched. Duke is scientific,
watchful and as agile as monkey.
Larry's forte are his hard-hitting quail
ties and his staying powers. He can stand
any amount OF punishment and his blows
come like the piston rod OF an engine.
Mcdonald has been training for several
weeks. and is in fine fettle. Duke says
he is in fit condition to fight the bout Of
his life. He says he is confident of best
ing Larry, and intends to do II If it takes
all night. Larry, however, thinks the
other way.
Besides the main bout, there will be
several smaller bouts between local box
ers and an interesting programme has
been promised.
Billy whistler. who is booked for a go
here next month, has three bouts on In
philadelphia this week. Whistler will
meet kid" Wilson of Kentucky before
the club at its next meeting.

The Citizens Club leaders stated that
they considered this a very satisfactory
vote in view of the facts, none OF the can
didates for the judgeship being known
here and the interest in the matter belns
slight and also that there was no effort
made to get out the vote.
About the only feature of interest in the
election was the presence of Liberal CluD
watchers at each voting place VINO Kept
tab on the vote. The watchers were
equipped with patent counters ana regis
tered one for each voter. As was to De eA-
pected their count did not agree with that
of the managers In the First district the
difference was slight, the managers report
ing a vote of 232 and the Liberal Cluo
watcher a vote of ZIG. The watchers count
in the Second district could not be gotten.
In the Third district the watcher reported
only l05 votes as against 1913 by the mana
gers. In the Fourth district the managers
reported 32S, and the watchers l45. rms
makes a total of 464 votes by the count OF
the watchers for three districts. Liberal
Club watchers also kept count in the Firth
and Eighth districts.
The managers at the several precincts
were as follows:
First District-George F. stockett, w.
G. Smith.
Bieber.
Third DistrlctLw. c. Workman, Peter
Mcguire.
Fourth District-George Coleman, F. B.
Quinley G. J. Bishop.

Seventh District-R. Ferguson, Ia. u.

Eighth District-M NJ. Baker, ]. A.
Powell, S. L. Parker.
The returns were made to Vice Chair
man John L. Archer of the primary COM
mittee at his office. The consolidated vote
is as follows:
Pope Barrow, lob.
Ambrose Ehrlich, 1,019.
George T. Cam, 1,0l9
John Juchter, 10Y.
A. A. Lawrence, 1,0l5.

One or two of the delegates elected will
probably leave for Atlanta tomorrow
night, and the others Tuesday night. One
or two of those elected may not 60 IN
which case their proxies will be given to
others.
The primary people retaliated upon
their opponents last night by having a
tabber at the door of the Catholic Library
hall armed with a patent hand register.
The ticker which he returned to Vice
Chairman Archer registered 1874. This, the
watcher stated, included all who had en-
tered the hall from 6 o clock to the close
of the meeting. This ticker will doubtless
be presented in evidence when the con-
test between the two Chatham delega-
tons comes before the convention.

What Trilby Did.

An accidental conversation In the Del
monico cafe in New York attracted Paul
Potter's attention to the novel, Trilby.
He hit upon the idea of dramat,zing It; he
contracted housemsid's knee by pros
trating himself before A. NJ. Palmer in
the endesyor to persuade that manager
into confidence in the play; Mr. Palmer
finally cor sented to produce it.; how the
manager cleared S1O0. COO, the dramatist
$50, COO and the original author $l25, 900
out of Trilby; how it spread over the
country like measles; how Beerbohm
Tree almost tum bled out of bis box on
its first night at the Garden Theater in
Ills study of a character hat promised to
restore his falling fortunes; how the Paul
Potter dranatization was changed by a
few unimportant alterations and claimed
by John Bull az an English play; how
p. p. challenged J. B. to a duel over this
matter and got two lovely black eyes;
how George du Maurier became SO rich
on his royalties that he fell sick from
the excitement Of unexpected wealth and
died; how Virginia Harmed made q hit
how Blanch Walsh made a hit a. Trilby
and went to Australia as leading
woman for Nat Goodwin, whose wife
sued for divorce, and he quarreled with
Blanch Walsh and wanted to marry Max
Inc Elliott, who secured a divorce. but
couldn't marry him tecause he isn't
divorced---aud so on, ano 80 on. Trilby
is responsible for lot OF trouble and
money. Mr.. Trees performance of Sven
gall has been making a good deal of talk
in New York this week. 1t was regarded
as fine performance Of Du Maurier's re-
marke BILE character.
