Representatives Absent Ones
Wrote.
The bill to be introduced at the pres
ent session of the Legislature provid-
ing for the election of city officers by
the incoming board of aldermen was
unanimously Endorsed by a caucus of
the administration forces last night.
The gathering was a representative
one, from a factional standpoint, and
only two or three people were heard
in opposition to the bill.
The meeting was attended by mem
bers of the aldermanic board, city Of
ficers, both appointive and elected,
workers and persons high in fractional
politics. Col. Warning Russell, who sent
out the call for the meeting, presided,
and stated the purpose of the call.
There were fifty people present, and
from r!e start the ma jority seemed to
be in favor of the bill.
1t was stated that the representa-
tives of the Citizens Club had been
called together for the purpose of dis
cussing the bill freely. Those who
spoke in favor of it had everything
their own way; from the arguments
to the vote. Every one who attended
the caucus was given an opportunity
to talk. The causus was private. and
only those holding invitations were ad-
mitted.
One who attended the caucus stated
after the meeting that the advocates
of the bill had no difficulty in getting
1t Endorsed unanimously. The chair
was instructed to appoint a commit
tee of three to draw up resolutions in
dorsing the bill. and asking the sena-
tor and representatives from this dis
trict to push it through. Three letters
from parties who were unable to at
tend the meeting were read. Two of
these were in opposition to the bill,
and the other was in favor of it. 1t
was stated after the meeting that the

LAID PLANS BEFORE THEM.
Edison Company Directors Had a
Talk From the President.

A meeting of the directors of the Edi-
son Electric Illuminating Company was
held yesterday at the offices in the Cit
liens Bank Building. 1t was the regu-
lar monthly meeting of the board, and
only the routine business, George j.
Baldwin said later. was transacted.
One feature of interest in the meet
ing, however, was the acquaintance of
the directors with the plans that have
been laid for the merger of the Edison
interests with those of the Savannah,
Thunderbolt and Isle of Hope Railway
Company under a new company, for
which a charter is soon to be asked.
Mr.. Baldwin said that he had laid
the matter before the directors. The
details that have not been made public
were given the directors, but it was
understood among them that they
should maintain silence regarding
them. Mr.. Baldwin told the represent
alive of the Morning News that nego-
tiations had not reached a point where
IL was deemed advisable TO publish de-
tails of the prospective consolidation.
I'm fact" said Mr. Baldwin, lit is
a mistake to asusme that the enter
prise has been accomplished. This as
sumption, / know, is in some minds,
but negotiations have not been posi-
lively closed. Absolutely no definite or
positive action has been taken by the
directors of the Edison Company"

Remember that the residence section

AGREED TO BUY THE LAND.
Committee Was Unanimous in Its
Report Upon Norwood Tract.

The Council Committee on Streets

purchase the Norwood tract of land
southwest of the city. This agreement
was reached at a meeting of the COM
lnittee yesterday. and its report was
submitted to the Mayor. who will sign
the notes by which payment to Judge
Thomas NJ Norwood is TO be made.
II had been expected that one or two
of the members of the committee would
report as opposed to the purchase. but
such was not the case. All agreed TO
the price that was asked and that had
been decided upon between Judge Nor
wood and the Committee on City Lots.

FOR INCOMING BOARD.
Representative Wells Thinks City
Election Bill Is Proper one.


Representative David Wells was in
the city yesterday on business and
gave those whom he talked with to un-
derstand that he will vote for the bill
providing for the election of city Off
GERS by the incoming board of alder
men. Representative Wells did not
make a positive statement on this line,
but made it plain that he intends to
vote for the bill.
The representative was not inclined
to talk for publication, and said that
he had not yet seen a copy of the bill
10 be introduced by Representative
Harden. He said that there is no
question that the principle of the bill
is correct, but that he is not prepared
to say whether it is a good measure

preted his language to mean that he
will support the bill.
Representative Wells has placed him
self on record against the bill provid-
may be that with Representative
Hitch's colleagues opposed to the meas

it, Mr.. Wells did not see Mr.. Hitch be-
fore leaving Atlanta and does not know
just how his brother representative

WILL TEST A BIG GUN.
High Explosives Will Be Fired
From 1t at Hilton Head.


From 1t at Hilton Head.
A test of a great gun will be made
next Monday at the Hilton Head prov
ing grounds. The government will have
a board of officers on the grounds, and
the report of the board may mean
coast defenses.
Mr.. Theodore S. Darling, president of
the Pneumatic Torpedo and Construc-
ton Company. was in the city yester-
day. He will leave to-day for Hilton
Head, where he will superintend the
test. The gun is owned by his compa-
ny, for which it was made by the Dick
son Manufacturing Company of Scran-
ton, Pa.
The new gun is fifty feet long fifteen
inches bore. and weighs fifty tons. 1t
throws a projectile ten feet long, con-
tanning 500 pounds of nitro glycerine or
other high explosive.
The builders of the gun assert conf
IDENTIFY that they will be able to show a
range of 5000 yards or more with hits
handsomely punched within the area
of the prescribed target, and that they
can fire five shots of the largest size
within twenty minutes time. To meet
the governments specifications the gun
must be able to throw shells containing
fifty pounds of high explosives more
than 5000 yards. shells containing 100
pounds of explosives, $500 yards. and
shells containing two hundred pounds
of explosives, $3.50 yards.
No armor plate targets have been
provided for the tests, but the results
of the explosives can be easily calcu
lated. In the pneumatic system there
Is only the question as to whether Il
shell will explode or not. If it does
explode the whole charge will detonate.
The force OF the shell explosives will be
arrived at at Hilton Head by measur-
ing the hight to which the jets of wa
ter are thrown when the shells explode
at sea- These often reach a hight of
300 to $50 feet.
A pesuliarity of the pneumatic sys-
tenn recently developed is that with the
one 15-inch gun projectiles of various
diameters may be used. This is accom-
plished by centering the smaller pro-
iectiles in rings and sabots. which fill
the bore of the gun and drop off after
the projectile gets into flight.
The gun is the most formidable rival
of the Gathmann gun. recently tested
against armor plate at Sandy Hook.
The deadly bolt is launched by the del
icate agency of compressed air with
out subjecting ii TO any shock which
would tend TO explode At. In the Gath
mann type the projectile Is sent forth
by the direct explosion of the powder
behind II. Upon the result Of the tests
at Hilton Head depends whether the
government accepts the new big gun
for which II win have to pay about
100000.

WITH SHEAVES OF WHEAT.
Kindergarten Decorations Typify
BountifuIness of the Soil.

Kindergarten Decorations Typify
BountifuIness of the Soil.
The five kindergartens of the Kate
Baldwin Free kindergarten system
have been tastefully and appropriately
decorated in. honor of the advent of
Thanksgiving. 1t is part of the plan
of kindergarten instruction to make
everything that is done in the schools
point a moral or adorn tale" and
the decorations of the rooms carry out
this ideal.
For the most part the decorations
consist of sheaves of wheat, rice, bar
ley and oats, symbolizing the bounti-
full outpouring of the soil for which in
part thanks are to be rendered. There
are other decorations, but they all fol-
low this general plan and are designed
to make the little ones understand
that Thanksgiving is something more
than name-that it has a real mean
ing and purpose.
The plan of instruction will be fol-
lowed further in the method in which
the day in the kindergartens will be
observed. There will be short sessions,
ending at IL O'clock, and the exercises
will be typical of the meaning of the
ddys ilC oOl6Ss lilG 6dlilCos CNCA tAllAS
that the children do and say, will ex~
press in some way the spirit of Thanks
giving Day. The children, too. have
all been asked to bring something to
the schools for distribution to those
less happily situated than themselves
and these gifts will be distributed by
the princapls and the teaching force
of the several kindergartens among the
poor and unfortunate of the city.
Miss Martha G. Backus8 the super
intendent of the kindergarten system.
and the principals and teachers of the
several institutions were busy yester-
day in making final preparations for
the celebration of Thanksgiving. What
ever remains to be done will be done
to-day and when the schools are OPEN
ed tomorrow everything will be in
readiness. 1t will be a season of real
thanksgiving among the teachers and
tine little children ghnm they instruct.
