Took Conway Seriously.

Last Monday morning two members
of the legislature were sitting within
speaking distance of one another in the
same car on train headed for Des
Moines. One of them was Popocrat.
When Conductor Murray reached him
going through the train collecting the
tickets, the gentleman, whose name is
withheld for numerous reasons, present
ed pass. He was elderly and wore a
crown of silver locks. The conductor
looked at the pass and turning it over
studied it several minutes without say
ing a word. The other member of the
legislature, with a perfectly natural curl
osity, had been watching what was going
on, as he had penchant for knowing
whether the politician of Opposition
faith was accustomed to paying his fare.
The conductor read the pass carefully
and replied he had never seen pass just
like that before. He said he would go
on through the train and return. He
came back in a short time and asked to
look at the pass again. He inquired if
he had had his baggage checked to Des
Moines on it and answered in the affirm
ative. He read out loud the words,
Good over all lines" and added that
while it appeared to read good over every
road he did not think he could accept it
over their line and he would have to
refuse it. He told the legislator that he
would be compelled to have him buy a
ticket at the next station to Des Moines
When the station was reached the Pop
got OFF and, presenting a half fare permit
made out for the year 1896, asked the
agent for a half fare ticket to Des Moines
on it. The agent saw the date of the
permit and refused to honor it, and he
had to pay full fare. While he was in
the depot the conductor told the other
member of the legislature, who had been
taking the conversation all in, that the
gentleman had presented him with 8
pass which read: Happiness & Pros
perity Railway Company. Good over al
lines. Good when countersigned by f
r. Conaway, state printer" and wishing
the recipient happy New Year. Mr.
Conway had sent each member of the
general assembly similar New Years.

taken it for sure-enough pass. In ap
pearance, color and general form it wal

EASY WAY TO GET A HOME.
Many New Houses VIII BE Built
Under the Plan


Under the Plan.
1t is probable that in the near future a
number of new houses will be built in the
southern section of the city under plan
by which people of small means may be-
come owners of their own homes by means
of monthly payments which, are actually
less than the amounts now being paid by
many for rent.
By paying a certain amount down, from
500 to $3.50, the man with a family to sup
port, who has saved this much, can be-
come house owner. the balance being
paid in monthly installments, less than the
average monthly rental.
The plan is already successfully in prac-
tice, several houses having been neatly
built on the lands of the Chatham Real
Estate and Improvement Company in the
neighborhood of Price and Anderson
streets for the parties who now occupy
them. The amounts paid in cash by these
parties was from 500 TO $3.50, and the
monthly payments now being made by
them are from $13 to SIS.
1--WE have already built six houses un-
der this plan,on our own property" said
Mr.. NJ. j. Solomons, secretary and treas
urer of the Chatham Real Estate and I'm
provement Company, to a Morning News
reporter yesterday, land we expect to
build about twenty more in the next few
months. The difference between this plan
and that pursued by the National and the
old building and loan associations. is
that a specific amount is paid in a specific
time. The persons taking advantage of
this plan become owners of their houses in
ten years without having paid more in
that time in monthly installments
than they would have been
obliged to pay for rent. and
in many instances probably less. We not
only build houses on these terms on our
own land, but we advance the money an
the same terms to parties desiring to
build in any part of the city. OF course
we can make a better arrangement with
those who build on the lands of the com
pany, as in such cases We sell a lot as
well as build a house."
The Chatham Real Estate and I'm
provement Company has been a consid
cradle factor in the upbuildng Of Sayan-
nah,' said Mr.. Solomons 1--WE have now
between 400 and 500 borrowers scattered
through the city, all Of whom borrowed
money with which to build or purchase
homes. The company is now in it's tbir-
teenth year and hundreds of peop,e own
houses who would not have been able
to do so except for the aid afforded nv
this company"
The houses which have so far been buiIt
on the company's property e'mostlv neat
tWo-story frame cottages The houses
will be built any style, which the purcha g
er desires, however, and he can select HE
own architect and his own contracto,. 70
he wishes. -

WILL GO TO NEW YORK.
Court Martial VIII Probably Ad-
jOurn to Meet There Feb. IS.

jOurn to Meet There Feb. IS.
1t has been definitely determined that
the court martial win go to New York. It
is probable that when the court adjourns
tomorrow it will adjourn to meet in New
York on the Monday following at II O'Clock
or whatever hour may be fixed.
Instructions have been received from the
war department permitting the court to go
whenever the Judge Advocate may deem
it necessary. Col. Barr would have read
the order relating to the matter yesterday.
of adjournment was reached in the midst
of the examination of a witness.
The order win be read in court tomorrow
morning. If the business here at present is
finished tomorrow the adjournment Will
be to New York city. If not. there will be
another session before that adjournment
is made. 1t is probable, however that all
the present business before the court will
be concluded and that when the court adj
journS Its next meeting will be in New
York.
In case the court adjourns on Monday
to meet in New York it's adjournment
WILL in all probability, be to the Monday
following. This would be done for several
reasons. There are several members of
the court who are DESTROYS of getting to
their posts for a day or two to attend to
important matters they have before them.
Col. Mansfield had some matters to look
after in Boston, Mai. Stanton wants to get
to Oswego for a couple of days, and Maj.
Patten has several things to look after on
Governors Island.
If the court adjotrns tomorrow some of
the officers will probably leave the city
at night. The majority of them will re-
main in the city over Tuesday. They have
been invited to participate in the military
exercises on Washlngtons birthday, ind
all of them who can do so feel inclined to
remain, and Will. Mai. Patten has con-
siderable business to attend to, but, even
should the court adjourn to meet in New
York, he expects to remain to Tuesday s
parade.
The sessions of the court in New York
will be held in the Army building on
Whitehall street, which is way down near
the Battery. The Judge Advocates OBJ
ject in taking the court to New York has
not been learned. He Is silent on the SUBJ
ject, and>says only that the court is go
ing; what for, can only be guessed at.
AS stated in the Morning News yesterday,
1t may be for the purpose of examining
the contractors, Messrs. Green and Gay
nor, or it may be for the purpose of get
ting at other witnesses. The court ex-
poets to be In New York city about a
week
The trip will be pleasant one for many
of the officers. Several of them live in or
near New York, and 1t win give them an
opportunity of getting home. For others
1t will be somewhat of a change, and II
win add a bit to their mileage, though If
the court remains there week, the mile
age will perhaps be taken up in expenses.
One or two of the members of the court
will probably leave the city for New York
tomorrow night. Others viii go Tuesday
night and others Wednesday. 1t Is not
likely that the court will assemble in New
York before Monday morning, Feb. 2S.

FIFTEEN YEARS CITY TREASURER
Major Hardee's Long Guardianship
of the City's Cash.

Major Hardee's Long Guardianship
of the City's Cash.
Maj. Charles S. Hardee completed his
fifteenth year as city treasurer yesterday.
His official career has been long and
honorable one, and those who know the
city treasurer and who have the interests
of the city at heart, trust that providence
and politics will mutually combine to all
low him another. fifteen years in the Of
flee.
All who have had official relations with
Maj. Hardee know that his books are
models of accuracy and neatness, and that
no matter when the finance committee
calls upon him his books are always ready
for inspection. Mai. Hardee has served
under five mayors and eight admnistra-
lions Mayor Lester, three terms, Mayor
John Schwarz, one term; Mayor McDOn-
ough two terms; Mayor Myers one term
and the present administration of Mayor
Meldrim. The main secret of his long ser
vice and successful administration of the
affairs of his Office, is that he considered
that he had fully discharged his duty to
the city in taking proper care of its cash,
and was never a politician or partisan.
