CHARITY ASSOCIATIONS WORK.
Discussed by the Executive board
Last Night,

The January meeting of the executive
board of the Charitable Association was
held in Mayor Meldrims Office at the city
exchange last night. The meeting was in
teresting because the work of the asso-
citation has sufficiently progressed to be
encouraging to the members.
Probably the most important matter be-
fore the board was the Sc
lection of an auditing COM
mittee of three members, 10 which all
questions relative to the conduct of the
associations affairs are referred when the
agent is in doubt. A change was decided
on in appointing this committee, which IS
to request one of the members to hold
over a second time in order that the new
committee may have less difficulty in at
tending to its duties. The retiring COM
mittee was Rev. ]. H. Scruggs, Rev. W.
c. Schaeffer and Rev. Father Kelly The
committee selected for the present month
is Rev. Father Kelly, Dr. E. r. Corson
and Mr.. S. B. Adams
Another feature of the meeting was the
report of Relief Agent Wakelee, which
showed the amount of collections, amounts
expended for different charities and other
data relative to the associations affairs
considering the fact the organization is
new, the board thinks the collections have
been exceptionally good and feels that at
least $1,000 will be raised for charitable
purposes during the year. The judgment
OF the board has been decidedly against
giving out money. Instead they give out
tickets on grocery stores for which sup
plies can be obtained, and thereby avoid
the risk of having the money appropri-
ated for evil purposes.
ways and means of helping the poor
come in for good share of consideration
at the meetings and are discussed with a
view to adopting the best methods The
board is of the opinion the best way to
help the poor is by helping them to help
themselves. With this in view il was de-
cided to ask those having employment for
unskilled labor, to make use of the APP
plicants with the relief agent and thereby
materially aid the work. The board takes
the stand that man is honest and de-
serving who seeks work, and it is their
purpose to encourage this class and obtain
places for them in every possible instance
In order TO do this the association
needs the co-operatno of business men
and others employing labor. Mayor
Meldrim is well impressed with this idea,
and intends to see 1t carried out 1t is
proposed to keep a record of applicants
who can be recommended by the associa-
ton, and also employers desiring help
The next meeting will be the first Tues
day in March. The work has started most
auspiciously, and the zeal which all show
strongly evidences the good to be derived
from the associations efforts.

the tablets are made unnecessarily con-

the same thing had been done in cleaning
the Jasper monument. The smooth sur
faces are brought out In a bright relief.
For instance, the old-style colonial hats

fort upon which Jasper mounts 10 replace
the flag, shine like the brass helmets of
Caesars legions, while the remainder of
the bodies of the soldiers are left in COM
parative darkness. Mayor Meldrin re-
ferred his informant to the Park and Tree
Commission which has charge of the mon
uments, and under whose direction the
cleaning work is being done.

JANUARY WARM AND DRY.
High Temperature and Little Rain
fall characterized the Month.

Last month was the warment January
Savannah has had, with one exception in
sixteen years. The mean temperature for
the month was Sc degrees, but 10 degrees
below the average for the entire year. The
average January temperature since 1871 is
81 degrees. In 1890 it was 60 degrees. That
was the warmest January since the es-
tablishment of the weather bureau.
Besides being an unusually warm month,
the rainfall was less than half an inch.
The average January rainfall Is S14 inch
es. LIST months rain measured but .36
of an inch This amount was scattered
over eight days, so that the fall at any
one time was so slight as to be hardly
worth the name of shower.

MATHEMATICS OF THE GOSPEL.
Evangelist Gales Talk at the Young
Mems Christian Association.

Mems Christian Association.
Evangelist Gales. who spoke at the
Young Mems Christian Association last
night to men on the topic, Gospel Math-
ematics," based his talk on what shall
it profit a man if he gain the whole world
and lose his own soul?"
From this verse the evangelist deduced
many valuable lessons on profit and loss.
IF l were to ASK he said, what value
you place upon your arm or upon your
eye, whether you would agree to lose them
for $4,000, you would think me a fool for
asking the question. These things perish
with us shortly after breath leaves the
body, and If these temporal members are
so valuable, how shah l value our souls,
which must live to eternity?"
The evangelist went on to show the
emptiness of the many sins that the devil
is daily offering us. Men may think at the
time that they are gaining much, but
when the end draws near they see how
unsatisfactory these things are
Mr.. Gales illustrations along this line
were very impressive, and much interest
was manifested. His subject for tonight
is, Everybody Believes, It."
This afternoon, at 4 o'clock, the evan
gelist will talk to the boys on 'The Man
V Boy" The last boys meeting was at
tended by nearly 200 boys. and, doubtless,
a large number will go again this after
noon.
The cottage meetings are daily growing
more popular. This morning at II O'Clock
they will be held in five portions of the
city, as follows: Mrs. E. W. Cubbedge's.

Ways. 203 Waldburg street. west; Mrs.

A NECKLACE OF PEARLS

Is beautiful possession. If woman owns
one, and if single pearl drops off the string,
she makes haste to find and restore it.
Good health is more valuable possession
than necklace of the most beautiful pearls,
yet one by one the jewels of health slip away,
and women seem Indifferent until tits almost
too late, and they cannot be restored.
To die before you are really old is to suffer
premature death, and that is sin. 1t is sin
because it is the result of repeated violations
of natures laws.
Pain, lassitude and WEAKNESS, inability to

COTTON FROM ECUADOR.
Consul General Leon Sends sample
to Savannah

to Savannah.
A sample of Eeuadorian cotton was re-
ceived yesterday by President Henry T.
Williams of the Cotton Exchange from
Mr.. Perry M. deLeon, United States con-
sui general at Guayaquil, Ecuador. 1t
was exhibited at the Cotton Exchange, and
the members took much interest In exam
lining it, 1t is very similar to rough Pc
ruvian cotton, which is used to mix with
wool in the manufacture of garments.
The following is a copy of Mr.. deLeon' $
letter. AS l think 1t may interest your
members, l send you a sample of Ecua-
dorian cotton recently picked by me from
the tree while upon visit to the inte-
rior. Cotton grows spontaneously in Ec-
uador. The trees are about the size of
an old-field plum tree and stock end
branches are similar in appearance. Cot
ton is not commercial commodity in Ec-
uador, nor has it been since our civil
war. Some little is used by natives for
mattresses, stuffing furniture and in do
mestic manufactures, there being a few
small manufacturing plants in the repub-
lie. Nature has done everything for this
country, And only man is vile" l refer
to the "Cholos." The gentry quite eth
erwise. 1t is a land of 'mucho calor'' and
Dolce far Niente." VIII be pleased to
have your opinion as to the fiber and quail
ity of sample sent. With kindest regards
to yourself and members of your ex-
change"
Mr.. deLeon is we'll known in Savannah,
having been in the cotton business here
for several years, afterwards removing to
Atlanta. He was appointed consul general
to Ecuador by President Mckinley.
President Williams replied to Mr.. de-
Icons letter. in which he returned thanks
F1,, s,f la,-a
the exchange, and acknowledged the re-
ceipt of the sample of cotton, which Gre
ated considerable interest on the floor of
the exchange.
