An EARLY Closing Move.

Editor Morning News: We are again at
the beginning of the heated season, and
the question is being agitated among en-
ployes of getting up a uniform hour for
closing all the stores in the business dis
trict. This concerns the dry goods stores,
the shoe trade, the clothiers, the milliners,
the furniture stores and hatters. A uni
form hour for the suspension of business
during the hot weather will prove a detri-
ment to none and benefit TO employers
and employees alike. 1t is only reasonable
to allow the workers-male and female
a little relaxation and fresh air. They
may not be overworked but they are
closely confined. To grant them an ear
ler hour for closing will fill them with
appreciation and will make them better
fitted for usefulness to their employers.
Many towns, not as large as Savannah,
close up earlier during hot weather; can
not Savannah merchants do so, and close
every store at o'clock, or $50, every
night except Saturdays? Yard Stick.

FLORIDA's PYTHIANS.
The Grand Lodge Not Apt to Name n
Permanent Meeting Place.

Permanent Meeting Place.
Tampa, Fla, May 10.-A party of prom
inent Pythians left here tonight to at
tend the twelfth annual session of the
grand lodge which will convene in the
city of Jacksonville on Wednesday morn
ing. The party was composed of Grand
Chancellor William Wilson De Hart, Su-
preme Representative Napoleon Wool
bridge, Grand Outer Guard L. j. Canova.
These officers were accompanied by S. L.
Lowry and II. l.. Crane, representatives
from Red Cross Lodge, and Charles e.
Worth, F NJ. Simonton and G. B. Spark
man, representatives of Bay Lodge.
One of the leading questions to come
up before this session will be the perma-
nent location of the Grand Lodge. 1t has
for long time been the desire of Jack
sonville to have the permanent meeting
place in that city, but there Is a strong
feeling against locating it permanently in
any place, at least for some years yet.
BY those best versed In Pythianism IL is
claimed that the annual visits of the
Grand lodge to different sections of the
state annually greatly promotes the
growth of the order and for this reason
1t is more than likely that the attempt to
get the location at Jacksonville will be
defeated. Only two other states in the
union have tried permanent location
Maryland has done so unsuccessfully and
Indiana has just made the attempt.
The local lodges of Jacksonville are
making great preparations for the recep-
ton of this representative body of knights.
The following programme has been adopt
ed and will be carried out:
Wednesday, $3.50 a. m.-Parade of the
Grand Lodge, led by the First Battalion
band, and escorted by the uniform rank
10 a. m, address of welcome by the mayor
and response by the grand chancellor. II
