Gone TO His Rest.

Charles Walker, the aged colored grave
digger at Bonaventure Cemetery died yes

tuTe, and his passing away will he regret

C. Il. A. ELECTED OFFICERS.
President Higgins Declined Re-e1ec-
ton and MIR. Powers Chosen.

The annual meeting of the Catholic L.
brary Association was held yesterday
morning. and the officers of the associa-
ton elected. The report of the various
officers indicated that the association was
one of the most prosperous and successful
of its kind in the South
President j. ]. Higgins declined re-elee-
ton at the hands of his fellow-members,
stating that his business engagements
would not permit him to accept the office
that his friends tried to thrust upon him.
This positive declina ton was a source of
considerable dissatisfaction to the men,
bers of the association. as President Hig-
gins has discharged his duties with much
ability and much satisfaction.
In his place the former vice president of
the associa ton, Mr.. ]. J. Powers, was
elected president. The other officers chosen
are as follows; Vice president, j. B. Mad
dock; recording secretary, Horace J.
Brooks; treasurer, Joseph e. Harry The
report of the treasurer showed the associ-
alton to be in fine financial shape.

statement, giving the general purpose and
scope and methods of the investigation.
1t is doubtful IL either the Cotton Ex-
change or the Board of Trade, or any 9TH
er commercial body in Savannah, viii be
able to give Mr.. Johnson the information
desired in the shape desired. The statis-
tics, however, of the Cotton Exchange
and the Board of Trade. together with
such others as may be obtainable, will
doubtless be of value, and in addition to
this committee will doubtless be appointed
at to-day's meeting to secure such further
information as is desired.
The value which the canal is likely to
be to the commerce of Savannah and other
South Atlantic and Gulf ports is fully APP
preciated here, and the probability is that
resolutions will be introduced giving the
movement in favor of the canal, and the
work of the commission the hearty in
dorsement of the business community.

THE sPHINxEs RENOVATED.


Mr.. c. A. Cox has notified the Park and
Tree Commission that he has completed
the renovation of the park sphinxes and
that the images are now at the disposal
of the commission. Mr. Cox did not find
it necessary TO fill the hollow figures with
plaster of paris, but simply used soft
solder in reuniting the broken parts. His
charge for this work is only ST.. 1t win
cost as much more, however, TO replace
the wooden bases upon which the figures
rest, and something additional for a cou-
pie of coats of paint for each. Altogether
the cost of restoration win be between $40
and $50.
At present ii seems likely that the
sphinxes will be replaced in their former
positions at the park entrance, although
Chairman Dale of the County Commits
sioners has requested Mayor Myers to
turn them over to him for the county
farm, where he thinks they would be much
more in keeping with the surroundings
than at the entrance to Forsyth Park.

'FoR THY BROTHER's SINS"
Rev. Bascom Anthony Preached on
the Political Situation.

Rev. Bascom Anthony preached at Trim
fly Church last night sermon that has
close connection with the pending politi-
cal contest. He took the position that
ID is the duty of Christians and of good
men. generally to give their support to
the moral side in any conflict and in case
they do not do so they are responsible
for the results
Rev. Mr. Anthony said IL is a law of
religion and of morals that he who suf-
fers without protest the commission of a
crime is aus much guilty as it's actual per-
petrator, and this rule of good conduct
and right thinking might properly be APP
piled 20 the condition of affairs existing
in Savannah to-day. The law as 10 gam
ing is being openly and fagrantly vio-
lated its violation is commonly and gen.
orally known, and the results of the vio-
lation arg hideous in their cruelty and
viciousness.
Mr.. Anthony called upon the members
of his congregation, as men, to aid in
putting an end 60 this vice, and declared
that if they did not render such assist
ance they were no longer men. Decent,
honorable, clean pure, white men, he de-
clared, should be united on this subject
and should indicate their position by their
ballots on the day of the election.
A good handicraftsman is proud always
of the creditable results of his lsbors, said
Mr.. Anthony. If 1t be a field
of corn, he is glad to say that
This is my job if it be a house that
he has constructed. he is proud to say
that This is my job" Mr.. Anthony called
upon those citizens of Savannah who fail
to espouse what he considers the true
and proper side of the pending conflict to
IL :.
of the destitute, where gaunt hunger
stalks, before the cell of the criminal,
where repentance is in vain. or beside the
corpse of the suicide. whose soul has wing
ed its flight to the throne of all-powerful
God, where, in every case, gambling has
been the cause and root of the evil, 70 say,
This is my job" No honesc and clean
man. he said, could say less.

PLANT BLoCKED CONSTRUCTION.
CentraPs Track. Across to Gordon
Ward Was Not Built.

An amusing railroad compiled ton has
arisen from the attempt recently begun
by the Central Railroad, to complete its
tracks from River street to the Gordon
wharf and the adjacent properties II
has been met by the Plant System. and
all of yesterday and hast night train of
cars was kept standing at the corner of
Bay and Randolph streets.
The bed for the track had been virtually
completed, and the connection was IN
sight. 1t had been arranged that II
should be made yesterday, and force of
hands was ready to do the work The
connection that was to have been made
was directly in front of that portion of the
wharves, occupied by the Isaac Joseph
Iron Company, and the Domestic Coal
and Wood Company.
When the force of hands turned up the
Plant System had a train of cars drilling
backwards and forwards across the street
1t transpired that 1t was essential to the
Plants business that this train should be
kept in its original position during the
day and the night, and it was kept. The
force of hands that the Central had pro-
vided held it's ground during the day. but
there was never a time when It could
change the status. The Plants train
drilled backwards and forwards, but II
never changed its position sufficiently TO
permit the force of hands to get to work.

WAS NEWS TO COL. MELDRIM.
He Had Not Thought of Being Made
Chairman of the State Convention.

He Had Not Thought of Being Made
Chairman of the State Convention.
Col. p. w. Meldrim was seen yesterday
in reference to the report sent out from
Atlanta to the effect that as 1t was ex-
pected that State Chairman duBignon
would retire from politics temporarily on
account of i'll health, the outlook was that
Vice Chairman E. I. Brown and Gel. Mel
drim would lock horns" for the chair
manship of the Democratic State Conven-
ton on June 16.
Col. Meldrim said that the appearance
of the report in the Morning News was the
first informa tion he had had on the sub
ject. He had done or said nothing, he
said, 10 give rise to any such rumor, end
he was at loss to account for its origin,
unless the fact that he had been made
chairman of the Chatham Executive Com
mittee at a critical time and had succeed
ed in bringing about a satisfactory ar
rangement for the primary had suggested
10 some OF his friends in Atlanta the idea
that he might be good material for state
chairman.
IF such an honor should come to me-"
said Col. Meldrim, 1T will come like every
other political honor that has been con-
ferred upon me, entirely unsolicited.
save never sought political prelerment Of
any kind and in every case that my fellow
citizens have honored me 1 have accepted
reluctantly and IL would be the same at
this instance. However, the only imp5rt-
ance l attach to the rumor is that the At
lanta correspondent Of the Morning News
has been kind enough TO remember me-"
Col. Meldrim could hardly be made
chairman of the convention without beng
member of that body and as matters
stand at present the chances are rathg r
against him. AS chairman of the Execu-
tive Committee ii is his duty to appoint
the delegates to the State Convention from
among the friends of the successful candi-
dsses. This being the case he could
hardly appoint himself. However this
matter could be very easily arranged
should the leaders of the successful fac
ton in the primary insist upon the chair
man becoming a member of the delegation.

MEMORIAL FOR ST. PAUL's.
Mr.. t. ID. Irvine VIII give CandIe-
sticks I'm Memory of a Daughter.

sticks i'm Memory of a Daughter.
Another memorial will be added to the
many that already adorn and equip with
various service adjuncts st. Paul's
Episcopal Church. IA the service yes
terday morning the vestry and a portion
of the congregation were informed of the
offer of Mr.. T. B. Irvine of Augusta of
a memorial to his daughter. Fannie. At
ter some elaboration 1t was decided to
choose pair Of seven-branched candle
sticks.
Mr.. Irvine formerly lived in Savannah.
He was master mechanic for the Central
Railroad, and his connection with st.
Paul's was as vestryman. He had many
friends in the church and in the city at
large.
Rev. ]. L. Scully, rector of ST. Paurs,
greatly appreciated Mr.. Irvine's offer. He
believes that memorials to the dead
should properly take the guse of a ben
eft to the living, holding that it is a use
less custom to memorabilia with tomb
stones and monuments when other means
may be adopted to result in greater good.
Many articles in the church were given
as memorials, and the rector hopes the
example of the donors will be followed by
others.

FOOLED WITH A WIRED WINDOW.
Burglar Sent on the Alarm ana Was
Captured.

Alexander Jones, colored, and a would
be burglar, was arrested by Detective
Stark shortly before midnight last night.
When arrested Jones was trying to get
into the store at the southeast corner of
Broughton and Montgomery streets, oc-
cupied by Cohen Bros, which he was en-
deavoring to get in through back win
dow.
1t was this effort that led to the negros
arrest, as in his effort to open the window
he set off the burglar alarm and the
Waterman was on his way to investigate
when he found the orricer and got him to
go along. The negro was still at work
on the window when the two officers reach
ed the scene. Seeing that IAN escape was
impossible, he made no effort in that d.
rection, but quietly submitted to arrest and
was sent to the barracks.
