SOON IN PRTNTER'S HANDS.
journal of Council of Safety to BE
Promptly Published.

The June meeting of the Georgia His
torical Society was held at Hodgson Hall
last night, President George A. Mercer
the usual number of members of the as
ISOLATION was in attendance.
Mr.. William Harden, chairman of the
committee in charge of the publication
by the Savannah Chapter of Daughters
of the American Revolution of the Jour
nal of the Council of Safety" for the
years 1775-1777, submitted a report This
publication, it will be generally remembers
Ell was undertaken by the Daughters of
the American Revolution some time ago.
Mr.. Harden reported that the journal
had been copied and would shortly be in
the hands of the printer. 1t is expected
that the volumes of the journal will be
ready for issuance in the fall of the year.
1t was decided that the editorial super
vision of the publication should be con-
fided to Mr.. Harden, who will make what
ever critical and explanatory notes are
necessary Some notes are necessary by
reason of the fact that certain members
of the council did not remain loyal to the
cause of the colonies and afterward be-
came avowed royalists.
The reading of the list of delinquent
members of the society was postponed I'M
til the next meeting, in the hope that
some of them would cancel their indebt-
edness to che society before that time.
The society is in real need Of the money
that is thus due 1t, and it is matter of
surprise to its officers that some of those
on the list suffer their names TO remain
there when this condition of affairs is
known. Should one-third of the amounts
due by members be paid, the society
would be placed comfortably on its feet.

CHILDREN WE'RE INSTALLED.
Fresh Air Home at Tybee Has Been
Formally Opened.

The Fresh Air Home for poor children,
at Tybee, was formally opened yesterday.
In the morning a party of sixteen small
children were taken down by Miss Dali
and Miss Icard for a weeks stay. The
children are the first this season to profit
by the kindness of the managers and sub
scribers to the fund, and the new home,
formerly the Zorayda clubhouse is occu-
pied for the first time by it's beneficiaries.
In the afternoon members of Froebel
Circle of Kings Daughters. which man.
ages the home, and many of their friends,
went down for the formal opening. This
consisted of prayer for the blessing of
God upon the institution and its continued
success by Rev. DR.. James Y. Fair pastor
of the Independent Presbyterian Chruch,
and an address by Rev. ]. l. Scully, rector
of st. Paul,s.
No difficulty, as general rule, is ex-
perienced by the members of the circle in
inducing parents to allow their children
to gain the benefit of weeks stay at
the home. Usually they are glad enough
to have them do SO. The custom has
been for each child to be maintained for
a week, but this is not adhered to in cases
Where 1t is thought the little one is in need
of another weeks outing. Last summer a
baby was kept for several weeks, and it's
life was unquestionably saved by the
salt air and tender treatment ID received.
Doubtless there have been a number of
recoveries brought about by taking sick
children to the island.
This Is the third season that Froebel
Circle has endeavored to help children in
this manner. The beginning was humble
only two or three children being taken
down each week. The next seasons a cot
tage was rented and more good was ac-
complished. With their own home, the
ladies in the Circle feel that they will be
even more successful in their work.

DAMAGE SUIT IN CITY COURT.
MRS. VI. III. Cannon Is Suing the Gem
trail for $40, 900 Damages.

trail for $4,000 Damages.
The trial of the case of Mrs. NJ. H.
Cannon against the Central of Georgia
Railway Company went on in the City
Court all of yesterday. Though it was
legal holiday Judge Norwood consented
to try the case at the instance of coun-
sci, who were very anxious that it should
be tried and removed from the court
calendar.
The suit Is an action for damages
brought by Mrs. Cannon for the death
of her husband. who was killed by a
yard engine belonging to the defendant
in February of last year. The accident
occurred at the junction of the Central
with the Il. G. & p. tracks, just west of
the thickly populated section of the city,
but within the corporate limits. The
plaintiff asks damages in the amount of
10000.
John A. NJ. Cannon, the husband of the
plaintiff, was a sw.tchman in the employ
of the Florida Central and Peninsular
Railroad, and was at or near his post
of duty at the time of the accident. IL
Is alleged in the declaration that the ac-
cident was made possible by the gross
carelessness and negligent conduct of En-
gineer Tarver. of the yard engine, in rum
ming his locomotive al a dangerously high
ing of its approach by ringing the bell,
Blowing the whistle or in any other man
ncr. liao these ordinary precautions been
observed, ii ie contended that the acci-
dent could not have occurred and Cannon
would not have been killed. 1t is fur
iher alleged that Tarver was incompe-
tent and that his incompetency was
known to the company.
on behalf of the defendant these ale
cations of negligence are denied in toto.
1t is stated, on the contrary, that the
engine was running at yer low rate of
speed; that the whistle was blown, and
that the accident resulted from Cannon's
own disregard of common precautions for
his safety. Evidence to substantiate these
diverse allegations was offered on yester-
day.
The arguments for the plaintiff were
made by Mr.. r. r. Richards and Mr.. W.
y. Stubs, and for the defendant by Mr..
r. Mathew Cunningham, Jr. Judge Nor
wood discharged the jury at $50 o'clock
until o'clock this morning when he will
deliver his charge.
