University Sends Many to Increase
Those at the Savannah Bar.
A profusion of college-bred youths from
the University of Georgia viii soon be
among the people of Savannah to start
on their journey along that proverbialy
rocky and difficult road to travel the law.
More than the usual number will be I'M
loaded in a few days. and therell be more
youthful knowledge in Savannah offices
than there has been for an entire year.
Some of the brightest members of the
senior and law classes will. locate in Sa-
vannah. Two or three of the seniors will
go right into offices, preferring that train
ing to the sort they would secure at law
school. Three or four members of the law
class think they see an opening for good,
the profession will be worked for all it is
worth by them.
Mr.. Pratt Adams, a son of Mr.. s. b.
Adams, is a graduate of the academic de-
partment, who will go into the office OF
Messrs. Denmark, Adams & Freeman at
once 1t is safe to predict that Mr. Ad-
ans has a career before him, as his nat
ural abilities have been thoroughly train
ed and supplemented by his college course,
careful application to his studies and
faithful performance of his duties. His
personal popularity and ability TO make

the success his friends are confident awaits
him.
Mr.. B. c. Yancey comes from Rome. He
was a members of the law class. No de-
sire to practice law there binds him TO his
native heath and his coming to Savannah
will, IL is understood. be to the office of
Messrs. Denmark, Adams and Freeman.
Mr.. r. J. Travis comes from Covinston
with resplendenl record. He was first
honor man in the law class at the univer-
sity, and two years ago was first honor
man at Emory College. A short while ago
he won the ready writer's medal at the
university. He is very highly esteemed by
all who know HON, and it is believed he

Mr.. Charles Hohenstein is a Savannah
young man who has just graduated from

study of law in one of the Offices here.
Mr.. Raiford Fallgant is the son OF Dr.
L. A. Falligant. He will begin The prac-
tice of law, having just been graduated
from the law department. Ii is believed
the success of his uncle, Judge Robert

of the nephew.
Mr.. Erouse is a Cambridge graduate Of
the law class. He is expected before many
days to make his appearance and put out

The big High School telescope was CIV
en- an airing last night. the boys of the
graduation class taking peeps at the heav-
ems Mr. NJ. M. Parks, who has charge
of the astronomy branch of the High
School, invited the boys to meet at the
academy for an hour with the planets
and the moon. Quite a number responded
to the invitation, and the hour was pleas
antly spent.
Jupiter was the first planet examined
His four moons were plainly visible
through the telescope, and everybody had
an opportunity to see the enormous mass
and it's satellites. Saturn was next OBJ
served. and his rings were clearly and
beautifully indicated by the instrument.
Mr.. Parks directed some Of the boys
TO locate the polar star. They had no
difficulty in doing so. and soon Polaris
was covered by the telescope. Mr. Parks
asked why 1t was that he did not have TO
continually train the instrument upon the
star as he had to do when viewing 9TH
ers. The answer was readily forthcom-
ing, the boys approaching the fact that
the star is in the continuation of the line
of the earths axis.
BY the time the inspection of a number
OF the planets and stars had been COM
pleted the moon was high enough above
the horizon TO admit of her examination.
There was great deal discovered TO in

in viewing the earth's satellite than any

WALKER WAS KNOWN HERE.
The Alexandria Suicide an ex-Em-
pI0ye of the G. and A.

piOye of the G.. and A.
Sidney Walker, the young man whose
suicide at Alexandra, Va, was reported
in yesterdays Morning News, was well
known in Savannah having lived here
about eighteen months. For the last four
or i've months he had been in the en-
pioy of the auditors Office Of the Georgia
and Alabama Railway. and the announce
ment of his death was a great shock TO
his associates there.
Previous 10 his employment by the Geor-
gia and Alabama, Walker was with the
auditing department of the Plant System.
He came TO Savannah from Montgomery,
whore he had been for some time in the
Louisville and Nashville office.
Walker left Savannah for Baltimore
about two weeks ago, stating that he was
going from there to Norfolk, Va. He had
lost his position with the Georgia and
Alabama, and it is known that he had
very little money, as he pawned his watch
for so before leaving Savannah. MIR. II.
c. Bohn, a grocer at 237 East Broad street,
with whom Walker boarded, has the pawn
ticket, and would be glad for some friend
of Walker 10 take the ticket and redeem
the watch. Walker occasionally spoke Of
a brother and Mr. Bohn says that he has
no doubt the brother would be glad 70
get the watch. Mr. Bonn said that al
though Walker boarded with hun four or
I'VE months, ne knew hotlllS u HIS ldtti-
lily or where his home was. He supposed
that it was IN Virginia or somewhere
further North.
That Walker went from Savannah to
Baltimore is known, because one Of the
clerks in the Georgia and Alabama Office
received a Baltimore paper some days
ago with Walkers name written on the
margin. There was nothing in the paper
concerning Walker, nor anything to show
why he had sent IL. His friend who re-
ceived it here supposed that he had taken
this way of informing him of his where
abouts.
Auditor w. Fl. Mcfarland of the Geor-
gia and Alabama Railway. expressed great
regret at the suicide of young Walker.
He had no doubt that 1t was his former
clerk that had suiclded, and Walkers
acquaintances in the office were of the
sa me opinion. Mr.. Mcfarland said that
Walker was uncommunicatve and prac-
tically nothing was known of his ante
cedents. The deceased was quiet and
well behaved, he said, and the only fault
TO be found with him was that he some
times drank more than was good for him.
He was somewhat moody and respondent
at times. and his acquaintances supposed
that he had taken his life in a fit Of de-
spondency.
