A YALUADLS PAINTING

OF HON. THOMAS FRANCIS BAY
ARID ON EXHIBITION AIT Smell
IJENBURG'S.
Snellenburg & Co, at Seventh and
Market streets, have in their windrw a
highly -prlzed oil painting of the late
l.. Bayard.
This picture WAS painted in Wash
ington, ID. C., during Mr. Bayand's term
as senator by an English artist OF
note, who was visiting the capital at
that time and who took great dlS-
ing to the Delaware senator and re-
quested him to sit for his pDsture.
The Bayard LEGION, OF this city was
afterwards formed and named in honor
Of the senator, who, upon being re-
quested by the organization about tho
year 1880, 10 present them with his
picture, showed his appreciation Of the
legion by presenting them with this
painting. 1t is the only one OF the
kind in existence, and is priced by the
\ legion alike FOR it's resemblance to the
dead statesman and A0r the rsminls-
cences it carries.
i IL will be draped in black and be on
exhibition for some time.

In my opinion history will accord
Mr.. Bayard the first place among the

greatest man Delaware had sent into
public life, and this was especially sc
after Mr.. Bayard, as secretary o

that office, and especially to the scop'
of the Clayton -Bulwer treaty. Mr. Bay

EVANGELIST UPDIxE's WORK.
Several Have Expressed Willingness
TO Join the Church.

Evangelist Updike took for his text last
night Neh. 25. chapter 18th verse, where
the rebuilding of the wall of Jerusalem
is described and applied it to the church
to-day. MEN laugh at the church and the
followers of Christ to-day as they did at
Nehemiah them said he. when ridi-
cule fails them they will resort to force
to oppose the Christian. if in their power"
To succeed in the Christian life one must
be in earnest Mr. Updike declared he
would rather be an infidel and so TO he'll
straight than be an Indifferent church
member and expect TO go to heaven and
then be disappointed. He illustrated from
his own observation how many enthus-
astic Christians do great good by persist
ent effort and closed by saying he would
rather be a Noah and be at home with
God than be with the great mass outside
the ark.
The pastor, Rev Bosworth, is looking
forward with much hopefulness 10 fine
ingathering into this church, as several
have already indicated their expectation
of uniting with the church in the near fu-
ture. Mr.. Updikes subject for tomorrow
night will be Christ In Person"

Soldiers Sending More Money Home
Than They DID Last Month.
The business at the postoftice since the
paying off of the soldiers began exceeds
that done after the previous pay day
Yesterday and the day before there over
600 money orders were issued and thou
sands of dollars in addition went away
in the registered mail Thursday $40 money
orders were called for, the greatest single
days business in that department since it
was established. The stamp business is
also remarkably heavy aud promises to
beat the record OF the first week or two
in which the soldiers had money TO spend.
For the month of November The sales of
stamps were S14.500, being over 5000 great
er than a usual good business for the
month. The clerks are already beginning
to feel the effects of the pressure. but
there will hardly be any relief for them
for several days 10 come. If they We're
under an eight hours law they would be
making double time these days.
Ii Is the belief that more of the soldiers
are sending money away This month than
last. The approach Of the Christmas hol-
days, and the fact chat they may soon
leave for Cuba, is supposed to be the
cause of this. The soldiers are presumably
sending off considerable for the purchase
of holiday presents for those who are dear
to them The business of this month at
The office viii be something phenomenal.
Added TO the heavy soldier mails win be
the immense increase that comes with
Christmas. 1t is probably safe to say that
the matter handled at the Office in Deem
Der win be equal 10 that Of three ordinary
months.

showed Yesterday Morning, Though
Few People Knew 1t.
There was snow in Savannah yesterday
morning, but very few people were aware
of the fact. Few people besides newspaper
men and policemen knew that there was
a snow storm. The snow began falling
about O'Clock, and continued for half an
hour, turning into a heavy sleet, which
continued until after O'Clock 1t was
barely cold enough for snow and sleet, and
both melted as fast as they fell to the
ground
The instruments at the weather bureau
office make no record of snow, and OBJ
server Boyer could hardly believe that
there was such thing when informed of
it. The minimum point reached by the
thermometer at the weather Office at 4
o'clock was 3S.S degrees Snow is possible
at this temperature, though it rarely oc-
ours. Last night at o'clock the temper
allure was down to IS degrees. The condi-
tons are favorable to snow, and the fore
cast for to-day is for rain or snow, with
continued low temperature. 1t was rain
ing, sleeting or showing all over the South
last night, from Galveston to Savannah,
the same disagreeable, grip breeding
weather prevailing over the entire section.
