MOODY SAFE FOR 80 DAYS.
Boy Who Helped Himself to Spring.
field Dairy Milk Thrashed

In the Recorders Court yesterday John
c. Moody, arrested tho day before for
disorderly conduct in the Plant System
depot was sentenced to thirty days on
the chain-gang with no alternative in the
way of a fine.
Moody is one of the most vicious and
persistent drunkards that the police have
ever been called on to look after, and it
is relief to the members of the force to
know that he is where he can do no more
mischief for the present.
Fred Edwards, the coored boy arrest
ed for milking, without authority the
cows of the Springfield dairy, was turned
over TO his father with the proviso that
he be soundly whipped Edwards stoutly
protested his innocence, but got the
thrashing. The other boys who were par
ties in the same offense have not yet
been caught.
Robert Smith colored, for the larceny
of pair of overalls from w. NJ. Bates,
was remanded to the City Court.
j. C. Walker, colored, for dsorderHy
conduct, breaking the window of A.
Markus, and striking him and his wife
when they attempted to hold him until
the arrival of a policeman, was fined $40
with the alternative of fifteen days in the
lookup.
Rosa Ford, who was arrested shortly
before court was opened for an attack on
Selma Brinson that she made the night
before, during which she not only gave
the woman severe beating, but threw
her to the ground with sufficient force to
break her leg, was also before the Re
corder, but as her victim, who had been
sent to the Georgia Inirmary, was una
BILE to appear, the case was continued.
Four arrests were all that were made at
the barracks yesterday up to midnight
Charles Austin, colored was arrested dur
ing the afternoon by Detective J. J. Muir
ply, who found him trying to pawn a pair
of trousers of which he gave no satisfac-
tory account, and so he was sent in as a
suspicious character. Later the prisoner
stated that he had been given the trousers
to pawn by his aunt, Lula Ryan, colored,
who lives in the rear of the Marshall
House Lula was arrested in turn, but
claimed that the garment had been given
her for safe keeping by a colored man and
that he would return for il last night at
10 o'clock The detective waited around
Lula's house until the time appointed for
this third party to put in an appearance,
but seeing no sign of him and considering
that after all Lula story of having the
property in safe keeping tailed but little
with her act in sending it to be pawned,
he took his prisoner to the barracks.
Together with Austin she will be called
on by the Recorder this morning to give
a more satisfactory explanation of her
possession of the trousers or take the con-
sequences.
The other arrests were for trifing charg-

DIR. DU BOSE HERE FOR EASTER.
VIII Preach at Grace and the Sew
enth Street Churches.

Among the churches that are planning
largely for most interesting and attrac-
tive services on Easter are Grace and
Seventh Street Methodist The pastors
of these churches, Revs. Osgood F. Cook
and James A. Smith, have combined in a
successful effort to secure Rev. H. NJ.
DuBose, D. D., and, he will preach at
Seventh Street Church at II a. m and
at Grace Church at S:15 o'clock p. m.
Or. DuBose is correctional officer of
the Methodist Episcopal Church, South,
having been elected at the last general
conference 10 succeed Rev. S. A. Steele,
D. D., who has delighted Savannah audi
ences as general secretary of the Ep-
worth League. His fame as one of the
most eloquent orators of the church is
widespread.
The Savannah delegates who heard him
at the Columbus Conference last year are
unanimous in their expressions Of appre-
citation and will be delighted to know of
his coming So rare is the opportunity
that there will be no services at Grace
sunday morning, that the congregation
may hear DR.. DuBose then at Seventh
street and at night the congregations will
again unite at Grace, the Other church
being closed
The choirs have been very active in
their rehearsals and will be prepared to
furnish excellent music. The cornet and
trombone will also be used by Messrs.
w. b and G. A. Nell A committee of
ladies are preparing for beautiful decora-
lions to add to the occasion.

REGULARS WANT TO DECORATE.
Bat No Such Graves as They Seek Are
at Savannah.

The artilerymen at Tybee, who are
members of the Regular and Volunteer
Army and Navy Union, want to decorate
the graves of any soldiers sailors or ma
rines of the regular or volunteer army
IA navy who fell In battle or died in
Savannah from disease or the effects of
wounds. First Sergeant James Shilling
law of Battery C, Second Artillery, at Fort
Screven, is assistant inspector general for
Georgia Of the Union. and is anxious for
any information that may lead to the To-
cation of any such graves.
Inquiry made by the Morning News fail
ed to develop that any of the soldiers of
the Seventh Army Corps or the other COM
mands stationed here for time or that
passed through We're buried in the local
cemeteries. 1t was learned that two team
sters were inferred al Laurel Grove but
they were not enlisted men. In most
cases the bodies of soldier dead were ship
ped to their homes. When there were no
homes or no relatives to receive the bodies
they were shipped to Beaufort, there to be
inferred in the national cemetery.
Sergt. Shillinglaw says the members Of
the union would like to decorate the
graves on the national memorial day, May
30. II seems likely that he and his COM
rades will find no graves to decorate.

Ladies' of Church of the Ascension
Filled Ills pnntrN.

Another demonstration of the love and
esteem in which Rev. DIR. w. C. Schaeffer
is held by his congregation of the Luth-
eran Church of the Ascension was given
last night at the parsonage 1t was not
necessary TO convince the pastor that he
is held in the warmest esteem by his peo-
pie, but he could not fail to appreciate it
as another evidence of the fact.
Upon his return from service he found
his home invaded by gentlemen and Ia
dies determined to do their utmost to
show the estimation in which the church
holds its pastor The ladies were directing
operations and had ordered the seizure OF
the home, as they desired to make it
receptacle for a great quantity of gro
ceries of every description.
Mrs. II. E. Dreeson, chairman, Mrs. j.
D. Helmken, Mrs. Ben. Gail, and Mrs c.
II. Harms were the committee that had
charge of the surprise for their pastor.
The entire congregation had taken part
in contributing, and the goody store Of
provisions was a testimonial of the indi
vidual love of all.
Mrs. Dteeson made a presentation adj
dress, in which she referred touchingly
to the tender ties that bind the pastor
and his congregation, expressing the
hope that this tie may ever continue.
Mrs. Dreeson said the object of the ladies
and gentlemen of the congregation in
making the donation was TO show their
appreciation of the earnest and very sue
cessful efforts DR.. Schaeffer has made
for the upbuildug and improvement of
the church, and the widening of His
kingdom.
Between no pastor and congregation in
the city is there a greater wealth of love
than that which is shown in the Lutheran
Church of the Ascension. In many ways
it has been made plain, gifts from the
people to their pastor having been fire.
quent to express in their material way
the love of which their hearts are full.
Accompanying the gift of the groceries
was bountful purse, and this will en-
able the pastor TO supplement the store
brought by the committee with anything
that they may have possibly omitted. The
formidable list of provisions, however,
would lead one to suppose that the most
complete grocery stock in the city would
be taxed TO supply an omission. The
Easter offering was greatly appreciated
by DR.. Schaeffer, who acknowledged the
kindness gracefully.
The purse followed speedily upon the
heels of another, as it was but last Sun
day that DIR. Schaeffer was presented with
one by the class he confirmed. The pres
entation speech on that occasion was
made by one of the candidates, Master
Herman Lang.

AT THE THEATER.
"Under the Red Robe" TO-night's
PLAY.

Under the Red Robe will be given its
second presentation in Savannah tonight.
The story of the play as shown on the
stage. is simple and direct. Gil de Berault
has come under the ban of Richelieu for
breaking the law forbdding duelling. He
is to be hanged, but the Cardinal grants
him pardon on condition that he go in dis
guise to the Chateau de Cocheforet and
capture the owner of the estate, Henri de
Cocheforet, who is a fugitive from the
Kings forces.
De Berault. gambler and swash-bucker
that he is, has nice ideas of honor, and
the task is exceedingly distasteful to him.
He accepts, however and is seen in the
Chateau, in high favor with the wife Of
Henri and her sister Renee. He has founl
that the man he seeks is hidden in the
Chateau, and he has also procured some
valuable diamonds that ne has been
charged by Richelieu to take from the
place if he can. So far as his duty to the
Cardinal is concerned, he is progressing
better than he could have hoped. But in
so doing he has fallen in love with Renee,
and sympathzes deeply with Madame de
Cocheforet His honor is troubling him
exceedingly. He hates himself for deceiv
ing these confiding women, but he has
pledged his word TO the Cardinal.
Eventually he leads the hunted Henri
to safety and goes back to Paris to be
punished by the Cardinal. He finds, when
he arrives, that the King has one of his
spasms of independence, and that Richie
lieu is out of favor. The last official at
of the Cardinal, as he believes is to order
that Gil de Berault is to be "corfired dur
ing the Kings pleasure" which generally
means imprisonment for life in dungeon.
But it does not end in that way. The
King sends for Richelieu, because he can

GETTING READY TO SHOOT.
ROrest City Gun Club Making Prep

Next Thursday afternoon the first prac-
tice of the season will be held at the
clubs grounds east of the city, where
traps are well arranged and shooting may
be INDUCED in to the satisfaction of che
sportSmen who are members. Every
Thursday afternoon thereafter throughout
the season there will be practice.
About the middle of May there will be
a two-days' tournament. and it is Thought
there will be sportsmen from Jackson
Vile Brunswick, Macon, Atlanta and
Charleston. Blue rocks will be shot, as
live birds fly too slowly in warm weather.
Something like $500 will be up as purses,
and it is thought many local contestants
will enter.
The Charleston Gun Club wants to meet
the Forest City cracks again. Core
spondence is going on between the secre-
taries, and 1t is quite possible that salts
factory arrangement may be made There
was formerly great interest in the gun
contests between the two cities, and this
could doubtless be revived if a series of
meetings could be arranged. There seems
to be some little obstacle in Charleston's
desire to have but five men on a team.

several more. This difference may be adj
justed. though and the sportsmen may yet
fire away in friendly contest for the repu-
tation of their respective cities.
