FUNERAL OF MRS. ANNIE BELL.
Many Paid the Last Tribute of Re
spect to Her Memory.

The funeral of the late Mrs. Annie
Neca Bell took place yesterday after
noon from the residence of her daugh-
ter, Mrs. Claude Thorpe. at Thunder
bolt, the interment being at Bonaven-
ture Cemetery. Mrs. Bell died on Fri
day from paralysis, having had three
strokes, the last leaving her uncon-
scious for several days prior to her
death.
Mrs. Bell was born at st. Augustine,
Fla, on March 10, 1880. She was the
daughter of Frank Secopely of that
place. Early in her life the family re-
moved to Savannah. In 1876 she was
married here to Mr. Frank A. Rebarer,
by whom she had four children, two
of whom. Mr.. Frank A. Rebarrer and
Mr. Edward Rebarrer, survive her.
Some years after his death she was
married to Mr.. Charles Bell, remem-
bered by many Savannahians as lieu
tenant of police. Two children by this
marriage survive. Mrs. Thorpe and Mr..
Charles Bell of Norfolk.
Mrs. Bell was a devout Catholic, and
a woman of a. sunny and charitable
temperament. During her residence in
Savannah of sixty years she made
many friends and acquaintance, who
will regret to hear of her death.

Let Us Thoroughly Understand Each
other.

We are introducing what you might
call the new school store keeping,
which means all goods marked in plain
figures and one price; it also means
shorter hours for those employed. In
regard to one price we would ask you
If you ever had confidence in the store
that made you two or three prices or
offered as an inducement an extra 10
per cent?
Did you ever feel certain that you
secured the lowest price? A case came
to our notice last week. A lady bought
an article marked s12 for $40. This
party really thought she was ahead 81,
until she showed her purchase to her
neighbor, who had bought the same
thing at the big store for IS.
Another lady Ca stranger at this
store), becoming interested in our ad-
vertisement called to inspect dress
goods. She admired one marked in
plain figures, 59c.; said she would take
dress, providing we made the price
Soc, stating that other stores made a
reduction for her. After being inform
ed that there was but the one price she
left, thinking she could do better. She
returned during the day, and told us
she liked our style of doing business.
1t appears she was offered similar
goods at 75c., less 10 per cent, for be-
ing an old customer. This is only one
of many friends we are making every
day. No business can prosper on such
methods. If we were to mark our 19c.
goods Csc, our 33c. and SOC. goods Soc,
our S5c. goods 81, ETC., and write you
letter sttaing we will give you 10 per
cent. on what trading you do with us,
we do not think you would have con-
fidence in this store. AS a guarantee
to quality and price. we have establish
ed an exchange desk. where you can
take any unsatisfactory purchase and
receive your money for the asking or
exchange for other goods.
In regards to early closing, we will
have to ask you your help in this mat
ter. Savannah is the only city of its
size that we know of where the en-
ployes have such long hours. We will
start closing tomorrow at $50, in
stead of Z. We would prefer closing
at 6, and would do so if we felt sure
that it would not inconvenience you.
We empty about $50 people during the
winter, and this half-hour means so
much to them, you, who have so much
time, hardly realize how much this
half-hour means to those who have
been serving you all day. We really
believe that our people will not only
be better able, but will take great
pleasure in trying to serve you better
This is an experiment, and it rests en-
tirely with you. Will you give this
matter some thought and encourage
ment? Do your trading before $50. Of
course, we will be compelled to keep
open during Fair week and Christmas.
Respectfully, Leopld Adler.

WILL NOT RESCIND
COUNCIL WILL STAND UPON ITS IN
vITATIoN TO ROOSEVELT.
QUESTION HAS BEEN RAISED.
WHETHER 1T SHOULD NOT BE
WITHDRAWN BY THE BOARD.

Mayor and Several Aldermen Inter
viewed Upon the Subject-An
Agree That the Invitation Should
Not BE Revoke d-NOt One of the
Aldermen Has Sought to Have the
Action Observation-Disclosures Con-
siders That Roosevelt Acted as an
Individual in Dining Washington,
Not as the Observation-Disclosures
Was TO the President, Not to the
Individual, and 1t Should Stand.
A resolution was adopted some time
ago by the City Council, inviting Pres
ident Roosevelt to visit Savannah, and,
at the same time. expressing the high
est admiration for him. This was an
swered by the Presidents secretary,
who said that, owing to the pressure
of public business, the President would
be unable to accept the invitation at
that time.
All this was before the entertain
ment at dinner of Booker T. Wash
ington at the White House. The ques-
ton has been raised as to whether. in
view of the feeling in the South because
Of the President having entertained a
negro at dinner, the City Council should
withdraw the invitation. Mayor Her
man Myers and some Of the members
of Council were interviewed yesterday
upon this point.
1T has never occurred to me-" said
Mayor Myers, that we should rescind
the invitation, and I have heard no
discussion among the aldermen to in
dictate that they want to take such
action. | am certainly of the opinion
that it should stand. The entertain
ment of Booker Washington, l consid-
err, was the act of an individual, not
that of Mr.. Roosevelt as President. We
invited Mr.. Roosevelt as President Of
the United States not as an individ-
ual, and certainly the invitation should
stand. think there has been more
Importance ascribed to his entertain
ment of Booker Washington than it
really merits"
Alderman Watson introduced the res
olution inviting the President. He said:
Certainly we will not rescind the in
vitation. 1t would be folly for us to
do such a thing"
Alderman CAVITY said Roosevelt
was not acting in his official capacity
when ne entertained bOOhcI w dSillHB
ton. l consider that it was the act of
private individual. and our invitation
to him should stand"
Alderman Dixon said: LET it stand
Council would present a pretty spec
tacle resembling such action"
Alderman Bacon said: The invita-
ton should not be withdrawn. I do
not approve of his entertainment of a
negro, but l see no reason why the
action of the municipality in inviting
the President of the United States
should be rescinded."
Alderman Holland said: IT would
not favor resembling the invitation.
but, if Council had not invited the
President before the incident 1 should
not vote to invite him after its occur
renee"
Another alderman, who did not want
his name used, said that he had no
idea that any member of the board
would seek to have the invitation
withdrawn.

Prosecute NlOIatOrS.
It was stated on the street last night
that all of the clubs will keep their
bars closed to-day again, and the Good
Government League will be given no
chance to secure an indictment for a
violation of the tipping house law.
Mr.. II. E. Wilson, attorney for the
league was asked yesterday if he in
tends to present the Oglethorpe Club
at the next session of the grand jury.
Mr.. Wilson stated that so long as the
club keeps its bar closed on Sundays
no effort will be made to secure in
dictments for alleged violations of the
law before the trial on the former in
dictment. The club was closed last
Sunday, and Mr.. Wilson says so long
as 1t obeys the law the league will not
be heard from. Mr.. Wilson, however,
is keeping his eyes on all of the clubs,
and stated that he will be ready with
an indictment whenever he finds that
the Sunday liquor law has been vio-
lated, no matter who the offenders
are,

FRAME HOUSE DESTROYED.
An Early Morning Blaze in Frog
town.

The two-story frame house at No.
551 Lumber street, occupied by Alice
Miller, colored, was destroyed by fire
at an early hour this morning. The in
mates of the house barely escaped
with their lives.
Two one-story frame houses on eth
er side were slightly damaged. An
alarm from box "a, at Wilson and
Walker streets, was sounded and was
answered by the southern section Of the
fire department. The fire was in a
thickly populated part of Frogtown,
and had it gotten away from the fire.

great.
The apparatus had considerable diff
ficulty in reaching the scene of the
fire and there was some trouble in get
ting the hose connected to the water
plugs. The origin of the fire is not
known.

FATHERS GOOD ADVICE.
Tells Son to Face World and Drink
Pure Water.

When father started his son out in
to the world to battle for a living he
told him to work hard and drink pure
water. Knowing that the stomach is
the seat of many diseases and troubles
caused by putting other than pure
water into it the advice was not mis-
leading. Drinking pure water and
breathing fresh air are two things that
benefit the human system. But there
is still another. If it is necessary to
drink pure water and breathe fresh air,
so it is to eat good food. Wholesome
nourishment counts. Considering these
truths do not forget that the place to
get good food is from Logan, the man
in the market. He's your friend for no
more than it costs elsewhere.-ad.
