WILSON'S STRAW BONDS.
Attorney J. N. E. Wilson Wants the
Negro Arrested on Charge
of PnriIIrv

The article in yesterdays Call as to the
probability of the Grand Jury indicting
Attorney ]. n. E. Wilson and Clerk Kelly
of Judge Graham's court in connection
with the straw bond accepted by Kelly
for the release of Harry Wilson, the
negro, had the effect of making Attorney
Wilson appear before Judge Mogan yes
terday with a complaint charging the
negro with perjury committed before the
Grand Jury.
In the complaint 1t was alleged that the
attorney did not advise the negro to leave
the city, but instructed him to be in court
and stand his trial. The other allega-
tions of the negro as to giving the attor-
ney $500 and going with him to a room on
Fourth street, where the money was paid
by a woman friend of the negro, are de-
MED.
Judge Mogan refused to sign the war
rant as he had no desire to interfere with
the work of the Grand Jury but Wilson
was persistent, and the Judge said he
would think over the matter till to-mor-
row.
The police are determined to take all
the men on bonds accepted by Clerk
Kelly in misdemeanor cases before the
Grand Jury, as there is a belief that many
of them are in the same position as Riley
and Cosgrove, who were on the negro's
bonds.

MAYOR VISITS COUNTY FARM.
HE SUGGESTS 4 CITY AND COUNTY
ALMsHOUsE.

Something should BE Done 10 stop
Promiscuous Beggfne on the
streets, He snys-A Juvenile Instf-
tuition in the Nature of REFORM
atOry Needet--The Mayor Praises
the Conduct Of the County Farm
Convict Camp.
Chairman j. J. Dale Of the County Com
missioners took Mayor Herman Myers out
for drive and a tour of inspection Of the
county convict farm yesterday afternoon.
The Mayor returned much pleased with
his trip and with the excellent condition
in which he found the county farm.
"The farm is a credit to Chairman Dale
and the entire Board Of County Commits
sioners." said Mayor Myers last night
1T had been three or four years since
had visited the farm, and my visit was a
revelation to me. I had no idea there was
such a farm in Chatham county The
farm is probably the largest in the county,
ana l am satisfied that it is the best There
are several hundred acres under culdva-
ton. and ! found magnificent crops Of
corn. peas, rice, sugar cane and potatoes.
The buildings where the convlcts are quar-
tered are very clean and in excellent con-
ditisn. The convicts were evidently well
treated and well fed. Their appearance
indicated as much, and ! suspect that
some Of them do not mind very much
wearing convict garb and living at the
farm. Chatham county has a model con-
Wet farm, and one which other counties
might do well to pattern after"
Mayor Myers thinks that the next move
which should be inaugurated by the city
and county together is the erection of an
almshouse under the control of the county
and conducted upon somewhat similar
lines to those of the farm.
Something should be done to stop the
promseuous begging upon the Streets
he said. at present neither the city nor
the county has any place 10 which such
persons can be sent. There are mary
who have no means of support and vino
are dependent upon charity for living
The county has quite a charity list ami
the city is being continually appealed to
for help by this class Of persons. With a
public almshouse there would be a place
at hand for genuine paupers, while the
professional mendicants could be forced
off the streets.
Another good purpose that could he
served by such an institution" said the
Mayor would be a juvenile department,
something III Ihe nature Ct a fefOfmdtOry.
Cases are constantly com ng before the
Police Court of youthful offenders, guilty
of petty onenses, who ore too young to
be sent 10 the chain-gang and yet who
should be under restraint and placed
where they would be required to work
The charges at the almshOuse could also
be required to do such labor as they we're
capable Of and the institution be made
partly self-supp0rting. The city would
doubtless be willing 10 cont r, bufp some
thing like 81 600 year to aid in the sup
port of such an institution. 1t would be
necessary, of course, 10 make separate pro-
vision for white and colored with one
superintendent over the whole. Some
thing Of this kind is needed and / think
a proposition on this line from the county
to the city would meet with favor"

THE USUAL SEVEN DAYS LOT.
MisdemeanOr Prisoners Sent to the
County Chain-GanE for Larceny.

MisdemeahOr Prisoners Sent to the
County Chain-Gang for Larceny.
Judge Norwood had yesterday morning
his weekly assortment of criminal cases.
Most of those tried had been turned over
from the Police Court. for the commission
of petty larceny, and the evidence de-
veioped at The several hearings was not
engrossingly interesting.
The misdemeahor criminals had exer-
cised their talents, for the most part, in
the larceny of iron from the various rail-
roads, and were assessed the customary
sentences of from six TO twelve months on
the county chain-gang. Because of the
comparative ease with which this crime
may be committed, it has become alarm
ingly frequent and a large portion of the
time of the city detectives has recently
been devoted to the detection of these
criminals Their efforts have been sue
cessful, and yesterday Judge Norwood
turned several iron, brass and copper
thieves over to the tender mercies of the
guards of the chain-gang, to the end that
they might serve their terms and at the
same time expiate their offenses.

With the arrival Of Nov. corporations

upturning of the soA in the streets viii
be able to resume operations. Chief
among these is the house drainage con-
tract. Engineer w. Fl. Chapman is ex-
pected in the city shortly and everything
win doubtless be made ready to resume
the work by Nov. 1.
No action has as yet been taken by
Council upon the protest of property own
ers against the use of Lamar creek for the
eastern outlet. As The eastern outlet may
not be needed before the end of the pres
ent seasons work and perhaps not then,
the Special Drainage Committee has not
felt under the necessity of acting hastily
in the matter. Ii seems to be a question
of either condemnng the property or of
continuing the eastern sewer to the pres
ent outlet at the Bilbo canal II may be
oontended, however, that Lamar creek is
public property in spite of the claims to
the contrary by the abutting property
owners. II is said that the canal has been
used for years for public drainage pur-
poses and that has been kept in order

ENTERTAINED ~ ExDEAvORERs
Reception Given the Young Mems
Christian Assocfa ton Boys.


A large number of the members OF the
Young Mems Christian Association as
semb.ed in the association rooms last
night to join in the social rendered by the
Christian Endeavorers of the Second Pres
byterian Church. The Endeavorers were
out in force and delightful evening was
. enjoyed.
The evening opened with a piano solo
by Miss Aline Snow, entitled "Serenade."
by Chaminade. In response to an encore she
played "Fauns," by the same composer.
The song, Sunshine and Rain" by Blu
rnenthal, sung by Miss williams, ELECTED
a hearty recall. Miss Struck recited, in a
very pleasing manner aux Italia" which
was followed by Mine and Thine" sung
by Miss Kline. This was so well received
that for her second number she gave
The Broken Pitcher" which caught the
ear of those present. After a piano solo
by Mr.. QuaTterman, Mr.. Fish recited in
a very spirited manner, "Spartacus to the
Gladiators at Capua," and when his pres
ence was again demanded he gave POLY
got" which was highly entertaining.
Prof. Snow was the accompanst, and
did his part well. Miss Exley accompanied
Miss Struck as she recited.
Mr., o. Allen acted as chairman for the
E1ndeavorers and in a neat speech stated
that the object of these socials was TO
acluaint the members of the association
wGh the members of their society, so that
whenever they attended their church they
woSlld not feel like strangers. Ice cream
and cake were served and much socia-
bilHy prevailed
The basket bah game which followed
resulted in a walk-over for the Whites,
who defeated the Blues by a score of Is
to 9. There was some good playing on
both sides, which was found to be highly
interesting to the spectators, but the
Whites put up the strongest game. The
next game of basket bail will be played
next Friday evening, but the next socill
| will he given the second Friday night in
| November by the Epworth League Society
