MADE ESCAPE ON FREIGHT

John Shepherd, the negro rapist who as- saulted Mrs. Manroe Jones near Corona ten days ago, and caused so much trouble at Blossburg, was seen in Birmingham yesterday, but after a hot chase again succeeded in euding the officers.
 The negro was seen by Thomas Duncan, foreman of the car cleaning forces in the Louisville & Nashville yards. MT. Duncan talked to the negro for several minutes. While doing so he observed the scars on Shepherds face and hands. The negro ex- actly tallied to the description sent out by the officials of Jasper county. MT Duncan immediately telephoned to the police de- paftment for officers. Chief of Police Aus tin and Officers Johnson and Brown hur- ried to the place, but before they could get there Shepherd had boarded a freight train and escaped. A switch engine was placed at the disposal of the chief and his men, and flying trip was made to OXmoor.
 Had Taken to the Woods
 Here it was found that the negro had left the train some distance this side of Oxmoor and had dashed off through the woods in the direction of Ishkooda. His route was through Happy Hollow, and the officers lost no time in going after him.
 A telephone message was sent to 1sh- kooda to stop the negro if he came that way. but up to late hour last night the man had not been seen.
 Chief Austin and Policemen Brown and Johnson secured the woods in the vicinity of Happy Hollow, and made a thorough seach of the negro quarters but no trace was found. After two hours of searching the officers returned to the engine, tired and disgusted.
 Sheriff O'Bren was notified that John Shepherd had gone in the direction of Ish-

Y. VI. C. A.'s STAR COURSE.
The First Entertainment to Be Given
Week After Next.

week AFTER Next.
The talent secured by the Young Mems
Christian Associat ton for their star course
this winter is of the highest order and
merits the patronage of the cultured peo-
pie of Savannah.
The first entertainment of the course Will
be given Thursday evening, Nov. 80, at the
Guards Hall and will be the John Thomas
Concert Company. Mr.. Thomas holds a
position as an entertainer which few art
lists have gained, he has such keen sense
of the humorous side of life that he is
constantly adding original conceits to his
fund of incidents for platform narration,
and by his ability he is enabled to give
many features of q very attractive and
novel character. Miss Edna Marie Gou4-
land occupies a place today with the
leading sopranos of this country Miss
Annie Webster Thomas, the talented vio-
linist with the company, has met with en-
thusiastic reception wherever she has ap-
peared. There seems to be no limit to her
wonderful ability to execute with charm>
ing grace any music according to abso-
lutely correct methods. The pianist,
Charles A Ridgeway, is both a soloist and
accompanist of unusual merit.
For the December attraction the COM
mittee went to considerable expense to OBJ
tain the Fadettes Womans Orchestra of
Boston, Americas greatest organization
of women players, composed of twenty
artists, under the direction of Mrs. Caro-
line b. Nichols Their programme is sure
to please On their first tour through the
South last winter they met with wonder
full success, and in many places have been
re-engaged for this season.
Miss Ida Bentley, the American story
teller, will make her first bow before a Sa-
vannah audience in January. She has a
peculiar field Of her own, for few artists
have the rare ability of carrying an audi
ence through the entire thread of a story
and placing before them living scenes, but
this Is what Miss Bentley does. She comes
very highly recommended to the commit
tee.
During February Mr.. Charles F. Under
hill of New York, who without the aids
that change of scenery and costumes lend
to dramatic expression, will give "A Mid
summer Nights Dream" depending on
changes of vocal and facial expression for
individualizing the different personages,
and they tell the story themselves, the
characteristic Of each one being brought
out so wildly that after the first lntroduc-
ton there is no need of running them so
easy IS it to recognize them on each reap
pearance.
To bring the course to a close In March
Mr.. George KEENAN,, whose adventures
In travel have been among the most Won
derful of the century, has been secured
to deliver one of his lectures on travel
He may give Russian Political Exlles'
Illustrated with lantern slides.
