throp, its president. participated in the
ceremonies incident 10 the unwilling of
the window, and thus spoke OF It in les-
ter to his vice president. DR.. George Il.
Ellis, dated at Paris. May II, 1882: Last
Sunday morning 1 had a great treat at
st. MargaTet's, london, where the Win
down in memory of Sir Walter Raleigh,
which our society, at my suggestion, led
of in subscribing for, was unveiled. A
beautiful window it is, the large west
window of the old Parliamentary Church,
with fun length figures of queen Eliza
BETH Raleigh and Sir Humphrey Gilbert.
Lowell wrote the inscription for It, in
verse. The sermon by Canon Farrar was
admirable; full of kind feeling TO America,
and every way worthy of the window, of
Raleigh and of himself"
The inscription reads thus:
"The New Worlds sons, from England s
breasts we drew
Such milk as bids remember whence we
came;
Proud of her past wherefrom our present
grew,
This Window we inscribe with Raleigh's
name"

CHILDs' HOSPITAL MOVEMENT.
1t Is Taking Definite Shape Through
Committee of Ladies.

The move for a Childrens Hospital.
which has been on foot for some time A.
taking definite shape.
Savannah has long felt the need of such
a hospital, and while efforts have been
made in the past to accomplish something
In that line, experimenting the efforts by
a ward in the Telfair, a Kings Daughters
day nursery, etc, still, regularly organ
lied hospital, with trained nurses, april
ances, comforts, and the thousand and one
things required by any hospital, with the
specific needs of the little ones taken into
account, has seemed only to rest upon
baseless foundation.
Fifteen ladies', representing all denoni-
nations, all Glasses, have organized them
selves into board, and are soliciting sub
scrptions, looking for a Site correspond
ing with other hospitals, casting about for
the best nurses, and at no distant day
hospital for the little suffering children
will throw open its doors.
There has been some talk in regard to
the feasibility of securing one of the gov
eminent hospital buildings on Dale avenue
for the hospital, but that is still matter
for future consideration. There are many
advantages connected with the location
but likewise some points of objection, and
the matter of location viii for q short
while necessarily remain in allegiance.
Instead of having a house physician, the
Idea Is to have board of visiting physi-
clans. composed of SINE ihrle or four,
who win visit the institution as the needs
Of the inmates demand IL. Nurses espec-
ialiy trained in the care and management
of children's diseases win be employed
and it is sincerely hoped that the nstitu-
ton win be enabled to open a training
school for nurses, especially and solely for
the nursing of children.
The project has advanced sufficiently for
the hoard to enter a petition for incorpor-
alton. Miss Jennie Wilink as president
Of the board, is very active In her efforts
towards the desired end, while her coad-
tutors are no less 50.
Subscriptions from members call for an
annual payment Of 49, and donahons OF
money or anything are strictly IN order.

METHODIST WEEK AT DUBLIN.
SAVANNAH CoNGREG ATOMS
WATCHING CONFERENCE WITH
INTEREST.

At Least One New Pastor VIII Come
TO Savannnh-HOw the Methodist
PuIpits viii he FILLED To-day.
REV. c. IL. strong TO Preach To-
night at st. Johns Episcopal
Church on Causes of the Growing
Religions IndifTerence"--subjec
of other Pastors.
The most interesting subject In Metho-
dist circles Is the meeting of the South
Georgia Conference at Dublin. and the
possible changes that may be made among
the Methodist ministers in Savannah.
This has been of interest not only to the
congregations of the Methodist Churches.
but to the congregations and ministers OF
other denominations, many of the latter
having been during the past year init
mately associated with the Methodist min
listers, both in the Ministers Association
and in other joint church work.
With the exception of Rev. L. f. Nor
gan of the Seventh Street Methodist
Church, who has spent here the maximum
time allowed in any one place, It Is
thought that there may be no change but
there can be no certainty about the mat
ter until tomorrow, when the assignments
will be read.
1t is probable that the ministers at con
ference will return by Wednesday, and IL
is quite likely that full reports of the
proceedings will be made and discussed
by them next Sunday.
At Wesley Monumental Church services
will be conducted to-day at IL a. M, and
at p. m, by DIR, o. Mingledorff.
There will be services at Trinity at Il

clal reference to its bearing the same date
as the resolution of the vestry. is quite
reasonable and, at the same time, capable
OF an easy answer. The meetings of the
Nestry were held at the time under review,
as early as O'Clock in the morning, in
the vestry room adjoining the church.
Inc office Of the trustees of the fund, in
Ola Palace yard, was quite close to the
Vestry room, so that there would be no
diiheulty in the resolution of the vestry
Delng conveyed to them, and in the war
rant being agreed upon and made out by
the trust on the same day. The fact
that the receipt of the warrant Is not re-
corded until the following year" as
SHOWN in the record you have copied, is
PROBABLY due to it's having been handed in
at the close of their task, by those who
had undertaken the collection. The
amount collected does not appear to have
passed through the church warden's ac-
counts, for there is no entry relating to 1t
IN the year 1913, or either of the next two
following years.
enclose list of the names of the YES
trymen present when the collection was
undertaken, in case it may be useful here
after for comparison with the records Of
the trustees.
The warrant was clearly not a "brief'
IN the same sense as other licenses resort
ed to for collee tionSAnt the time. No men,
tlon is made of it in the register of briefs
laid in st. Margaret's parish, nor does Mr..
BeWeS, in his comprehensive volume on
Brief, refer to 1t in any way. Such doc
uments were printed and entered at the
Court of Chancery, whereas the Georgia
warrant is an original document in manu-
script, under the seal of the trustees, and
bears no Endorsement of the entry.

Funeral of Edmund j. Carey.

The body of Edmund j. Carey, who was
killed in the cyclone which destroyed the
town of New Richmond, Wis, last week,
was sent in metallic casket by express as
far as Greenfield, Mass, where it arrived
about o'clock Sunday morning. 1t was
brought by team TO Brattleboro and was
taken to the house of Mr.. Carey's father
on Canal street. At o'clock it was taken
to the Roman Catholic church where the
funeral service was held, Rev. Father Gun
bingham officiating. Father Cunningham
spoke feelingly of the many manly and
sterling qualities of the young man, and
his remarks were listened to by an audi
ence which filled the church. The burial
was in the Roman Catholic cemetery on
Prospect Hill, the bearers being John T.
KANE, j. G. Sullivan, n. T. Ryan, James
Grady, John Baker and p. j. Higgins. St.
Michaels court of Foresters acted as es-
cort, the members wearing their mourning
badges for the first time. The floral pieces
were numerous and beautiful. The out-of-
town people who attended the funeral
were Mr.. Carey's brothers, Thomas w.
Carey of New York and James F. Carey
of Newport; Mrs. Ellen Powers of New
York; Thomas Carey and Mrs. Collins of
Fitchburg, Mass, an uncle and aunt of
the deceased; John E. Woods and Martin

A COSTLY BANNER.
Presented to st. NIichaeps Court, Cath
tOIic order OF FOresters.


The Brattleboro Foresters who wen, 10
Burlington Tuesday night to attend the in
ternational convention of Foresters carried
with them handsome banner which was
presented to them Friday evening at a
special meeting. The members had known
for two weeks that they were to receive
the banner, but until it was presented to
them by Rev. Father Cunningham in be-
halt of the donors they knew nothing Of
its intrinsic value or of its artistic beauty
While arrangements for the convention
were being made Timothy Aher was i'm
pressed with the belief that the Brattle-
boro court ought TO be able to make as
good an appearance as any court at the
convention, and in pursuance of that idea
he raised money for the purchase of the
banner and had it manufactured by Benzi-
ger Brothers of New York at a cost of
nearly $50.
The presentation was made in Red Mems
hall in the presence of about 200 people
including the Foresters and the subscribers
to the fund. Chief Ranger John Calvin pre-
sided at the meeting. An entertainment
arranged by the committee, was rendered,
consisting of vocal solos by j. Z. Galvi y
I. A. Austin, Z. j. Lavelle, and p. -
Higgins, piano solo by p. J. Guiheen and
violin solo by Simeon Jones, with piano
accompaniment. In presenting the ban
ner Rev. Father Cunningham explained
the uses of banners and emblems in both
ancient and modern times, making his re-
marks instructive in large degree. Chief
Ranger Calvin, in some well-chosen words
accepted the banner in behalf of the Fores-
tiers, after which Mr.. Aher spoke in be-
half of the subscribers. The meeting
closed with some well-timed remarks by
j. j. Eckles, n. 7. Ryan and DR.. f. r.
Lynch.
The banner is made of very heavy ma
room silk with handsome gold fringe. 1t
is three feet wide and six feet long. On
one side is an oil painting of St. Michael
the patron saint of the court, above which
is the c. o. F. monogram in gold embroid-
cry. In the centre of the reverse side is a
circle enclosing a deer and a cross, the
emblem of the court, and around the cir
Gle on black background are the words
catholic Order of Foresters. Organized
April II, 1896" Above the circle are the
words st. MichaePs Court, No. ga" On
both sides of the banner are flowers and
leaves handsomely embroidered in green
and white.
