LEADERS WE'RE AMONG VOTERS.
The Districts Carefully Looked AZ

There was much activity in the First
district Yesterday among the political
managers on both sides. Preparations
were being made for the fight, and the
movements Of the opposite side were close

corners, the star figure of which was a

Sl7i.ritv 49, The fight against Mr.. Nc
Ir-.-,,Tb when reduced to its last analy-
,s based upon his manly stand and
sss,nee of the Christian Sabbath; his
eobt AGAINST gambling and the saloons.
~ mi those who raise these issues on
%r N.Donough and support Mr.. Myers,
~ effe,f saw that Mr.. Myers does not
.,.nd forth for these things, and that
,be gamblers and saloon men will have
NOR Ubertv and a better time under the
e3ministratlon Of Mr.. Myers? When the
iesues of The campaign are thus defined it
is time for the Christian church to come
An and take hand in the affair,
and throw its influence on the side of our
,lorious Christianity. When this issue is
made insist chat the time has not come
far Savannah TO turn over its government
to one whose religion and religious train
inc from childhood teach him to scorn
the Christian Sabbath, the day on which
Jesus our Emanuel rose from the dead.
This is a Christian city, and we should
have a Christian government. According
10 Mr.. Myers religion and training, he
cannot respect the Christian Sabbath, and
therefore it would be most natural that
he would connive at the violation of that
holy day. As Christians, are We ready to
give up the government of Savannah TO
a man whose religious training is calcu-
lated TO make US fear that his admins
tration may give encouragement to Sab
bath desecrauon gambling dens, lottery
playing, etc. which are sore Affections
upon our poor people. Ask yourselves
these questions, Why are the lottery men
and the saloon keepers more
strongly in favor of Mr.. Myers
than they are of NIr. McDonough? Would
they be so unless they felt and even had
some assurance that he will be more IA
yorab'e to their business? As Christian
men. l advise you to go to the polls on
Tuesday and cast your ballots for Mr.. Nc
Don0ugh He is a man true and tried-a
man Of back-bone-a man who has given
US a clean. honest, honorable, just and
business-like administration. You owe
this 10 your church; you owe it to your
children and you owe it to Christianity
Like honest Christian men, pay this debt

The first visit TO Savannah of Klaw &
ErIanger's big extravaganza Jack and
the Beanstalk," is announced for Wednes-
day night. The remarkable success achieV-
ed by this well-known production during
the past two seasons led to such insistent
demands for ID in the larger cities that it's
tours have been limited to New York Bos-
ton, Philadelphia. Chicago and few other
pfaces. This season it comes South with
the original cast, scenery, properties and
a company of eighty people The produc-
ton of this piece has been accepted by
critics and the public wherever it has been
seen as embodyng the best elements of
extravaganza. Its elevated tone, the rare
richness shown in mounting and equipp-
ments, the presence everywhere of taste,
skill and judgment have combined to fur
nish one of the best works of its kind The
addition of Marie Celeste and Hattie
Moore TO the company has augmented the
vocal quality of the performance greatly.
Nellie Lynch, Harry Kerly, Ross Snow, II.
NJ Moore, Henry Leone. Dan Baker and
others continue in their former places.
while Harry Clay Blaney, in the character
of King Cole, adds largely to the fun of the
piece.

ENJOY A HIGH-PRIcED BANQUET.
Eighty People In Paris Dine at SOS
Per Plate

From the New orleans Times Democrat.
A recent banquet, to which some eighty
people sat down In Paris is said to have
cost SOS plate for viauds solely. exclu-
sve of wines and decorations.
The profit must have been prsposter-
ous,' said an experienced New Orleans
caterer In this country the finest meal
that could possibly be prepared for that
many human beings would not cost over
$40 a plate. To be sure, l am talking Of
food only. As to wines and accessories
the possibilities are simply iimitl5ss There
is rare claret sherry and port that would
be cheap at S20 a bottle and l might en-
grave the menu on tablets of solid gold
But $40 a plate would more than pay for
the most elaborate dinner that could pos
sibly by conceived including every imagin-
able delicacy, native or foreign and
prepared by the finest and most expensive
chefs / am figuring on a basis of from
eighty to 100 guests, for Ihe smaller the
number the greater the cost pro rata, and
have not taken into account what might
be called freak dishes
What do l mean by the term? Wen, |
Will illustrate. There is a certain rare fish
caught in the Yellow river in Northern
China and called the blan-tu. II is re
garded as a great delicacy by native cpl
cures, and as far as l know is found no.
where else In the world. Now let us sup
pose that some wealthy gourmet wished
to treat his friends 10 this particular dish.
He would have TO make special arrange
ments for transportation in tanks of chill
ed wafer on one OF the Pacific mail steam
ers and IL is entirely possible that each
little fish-they are only about six inches
long-would cost him 800 by the time
the CONSIGNMENT arrived. l would call
that freak dish forming no basis of cal
culation for any repast, no matter how
elegant and elaborate. ] had in mind the
delcacies generally recognized by eople OF
discriminating and fastidIous taste, and I
Insist that my $40 estimate Is above rather
than below the mark"

From The Kansas city Times.

From the Kansas City Times
Macon, Mo, Jan. 13.-Harry r. Mont
gomery a private in the Tirteenth Mime
sofa, now stationed at Manila in a letter
received by his uncle, w. E. Montgom-
cry, to-day, relates a curious incident
there.
A merchant of the well-to-do class came
to the camp one day and told of the death
of a friend. He said his friends last re-
quest was that a certain one of those
beautiful American tunes" be played dur
ing the march to the cemetery. The mes
senger did not know the name of the
piece. and the leader of the regiment band
played a few notes from different seIac-
tions until he struck "A Hot Time in the
Old Town Tonight" The native CLAIMED
his hands and said that was the Identical
tune his dead friend wanted. II seemed
trife odd to play that rollckng air At
a funeral and the musician endeavorad
to point out the incOngruity of it, bur IL
was no use-'A Hot Time in the Old Town
was wanted and nothing else The obse-
quies were a big thing and the members
of the band did their best to keep straight
faces as they slowly headed the procession
down the streets, grinding out as soemnlv
as they could the new national anthem J"
1t was probably the first occasion where
"A Hot Time in the Old Town" did duly
as a dirge.
