THEosOPHY AND SOCIALISM.
Macon Picks Up Two Fads and Elk
pIOits Them.


PLOTS Them.
Macon, Ga, Nov, 22-The city is all agog
over the theosophical movement, as this
is Jubilee week of the local branch A
former clergyman of the Church of Eng
land. Rev. w. Williams, and Mrs. Mayer
of New York are the principal speakers
at the daily meetings. Mrs. Mayer is a
remarkably brilliant woman and a fluent,
graceful speaker She was personally
connected with Nine. Blavatsky's work In
establishing theosophy and has since de.
voted her energies to the dissemination of
the tenets of this occult science
Socialism is rampant in Macon, though
not of that character which meets the
bitter denunciation of the press. For
months leaders in this branch of politics
have been quietly scattering literature
among the people and it seems that the
seed fell in rich soil, as the harvest is
abundant. The order has been organized
and money is subscribed to establish a
store house from which food and raiment
may be bought at a fraction above cost
This is to help those who earn small wages
and thereby make their lives worth the
living.

The Schooner Roger Moore to Dis
chnrge Her Cargo of Pyrites and
Go to Wilmington to BE Repaired
Arrival of Heavy CargOes by River
Steamers-ArrivaI of Another Brit
ish Steamship For Cotton.
Capt. Miller, of Wilmington, N. c., own
er of the disabled schooner Roger Moore,
which was towed to the city Sunday night,
had protest noted yesterday before the
port warden. The vessel was bound from
Wilmington, N. c., for Savannah with a
cargo of pyrites, consigned to the Savan-
nah Guano Company. She sailed from
Wilmington, Nov 10. in command of her
mate. Harry Walk. Walk reports that
on Wednesday, Nov. II, the vessel while
off Tybee bar, was struck by a severe
storm. The master states that he burned
signal lights during Wednesday night. but
could not get pilot or tow boat. About 1
o'clock Thursday morning the main and
mizzen masts were carried away.
On Thursday, after daylight,
he found 1t impossible to
make Tybee, and then put for Sapelo
for harbor of refuge, which he reached
that night. The schooner was towed here
by the tug Dandy of Darien. Capt. Miller
intends to deliver the cargo of pyrites to
the consignees, after which he will have
the vessel towed to Wilmington, where
she will be repaired.
The cargo of the Roger Moore was an
unusually heavy one. Masters of vessels
and pilots report that pyrites is the most
unwelcome cargo to a vessel. Many ves-
sells have been greatly strained with the
heavy, bulky stuff. The reports of Wednes-
days storm, by mas ters of incoming ves-
sells, state that the sea was very high,
and 1t was no wonder that the Roger
Moore lost her masts, with the terrific
rolling.

There is some anxiety for the safety of

Allan Line steamship Norwegian in lati-

ed until the hawserI tore out her fasten-
stormy night. She has not been seen since.
There is but little doubt that the vessel
is safe, being out of the track of vessels,
excepting for those bound to provincial
ports. The drift of the currents are to the
southwark, which may bring her further
down into the track of Atlantic
steam craft. She is commanded by Capt.
Turner well-known shipmaster and the
father of Alfred C. Turner, a prominent
ship-broker.

idolized her, and they deemed it great
fun to be seized by the waist and lifted
eight feet from the ground for re-

AT home she is said to be admired for
