FELTZ MARRIED TWICE.
Little Prixe-Ffghter Now the Father
of Bouncing Boy.


Mrs. Thomas Feltz, wife of the little
champion fighter who has been in Sa-
vannah some time training for contests
that have been pulled off, or that are
scheduled to come off, is the mother
of a bouncing baby boy and thereby
hangs tale. The little prize-aghter
was born yesterday morning, and both
mother and child are doing well. Tom
my is proud of his young one, but has
not let up in training for his bout with
Kelly, because of his temporary hap
pineSs.
The story of two marriages. in which
Champion Feltz was the groom, was
told yesterday by Manager AL. McMur-
ray, who is looking after the little box
er. McMurray says that Feltz married
Miss Frances Perkins last September in
Brooklyn, and that the event the other
day in the Church of the Redemption
was the second ceremony, and was per-
formed to satisfy the brides parents.
The manager of the bantam scrapper
relates that the thought of church
wedding always frightened Feltz al
most to death, and that he had remark
ed more than once that he would rather
get licked three times in the ring, than
always means what he says and he was
game in this case, according to Nc
Murray.
1t seems that Feltz and his sweet
heart slipped before a Brooklyn justice
and had the trick turned in legal style,
even If there were no ministers present.
McMurray says that the form of the
service was most Objectionable to the
brides parents, who are Polanders.
So h,,% TN<,,11
held his ground and positively refused
to consider the church service. Nc
Murray says that the bride was taken
in charge by her parents and that they
tore the certificate issued by the JUS
tice into small bits. More than this
they held on to Mrs. Feltz and her
clothing was put where she couldn't
reach it. Tommy stuck out and when
the storm grew in it's fury he left for
the South, with the man who looks
after him.
Mrs. FELIX'S relatives continued to
make themselves heard, and according
to McMurray, there were threats of
shooting and other acts of violence, If
the little champion continued to refuse
to throw up the sponge. A priest
would have to conduct the service, or
there would be all sorts of trouble
McMurray says that he saw the clouds
were banking rapidly, and that he made
Feltz get on the train and speed away
to Brooklyn. There, about two weeks
ago in the Church of the Redemption,
a regularly ordained priest made Feltz
and Miss Perkins man and wife for the
second time. On the certificate issued
the second time, and which McMurray
is closely guarding. Feltz's home is
named as Savannah. McMurray says
that the sports in his confidence knew
the story of Feltz's first marriage be-
fore his departure for the North, and
that they readily agreed to the post
ponement of the fight under the cir
cumstances already related.

COUNTRY TEACHERS NEXT.
Supt. Ashmore Making Active Prep
arations for the school Year.

Superintendent of Schools Ashmore
returned to Savannah yesterday, after
a pleasant visit to his mother, in Lin
coin county, and to Brevard, N. C. At
the latter place he left Mrs. Ashmore,
who will not return to the city until
October.
Among the matters that will claim
Supt. Ashmores immediate attention
is the appointment of teachers for the
country schools. One of these was APP
pointed yesterday, Miss Ellie Wayne,
who will teach at Bonabella. Another
matter that will be hurried forward is
the placing of the furniture in the new
all here, Supt. Ashmore says, and
ought to be unpacked and in place
within the next ten days.
The school year, of course, will not
begin until October. but the superin-
tendent has already settled upon the
date that cards of admission to the
schools will be given out. These dates
are Sept. 26, q and rs. Those that
were in any of the schools at their
close, whether promoted or not, will
need neither these cards nor yet those
of transfer, as places have already been
reserved for them.
Owing to the completion of the new
schools changes in the limits of the
school districts have been made neces-
sary. AS pupils will be expected to at
tend the school of the district in which
they live these changes will be of con-
siderable interest. The limits given are
not definitely settled upon, but are the
ones that in all probability will be
made. The southern limit of the Chat
ham Academy district will be Charlton
street lane, east and west across the
entire city. Gwinnett street lane will
be the dividing line between the dis
tricts of the Massey and the Barnard
street schools on one side, and those of
Henry and Anderson streets on the
other, while Whitaker street, as be-
fore, will be the dividing line between
the districts of Massey and Anderson
street and of Barnard street and Hen
ry street.
The district of the Thirty eighth
Street School is included in that part
of the city south of Thirty third street
lane east to Abercorn street, thence
southwark to Thirty-seventh street
lane and extending eastward to the city
limits. To the south and the west also
the district is circumscribed only by
the city limits.

WEATHER MEMS CONVENTION.
Forecast OmciaI II. ID. Boyer's Trip
to Milwaukee.


Mr.. H. B. Boyer, local forecast official
of the Weather Bureau, returned to Sa-
vannah yesterday from Milwaukee,
where he has been in attendance on the
convention of weather officials. Mr..
Boyer is not only pleased with his trip
because of the personal pleasure that
it gave him. but thinks that the mat
tiers discussed at the convention will re-
suit in the lettering of the service very
materially.
There were present 101 delegates rep
resenting stations in all parts of the
country. Prof. Willis l.. Moore, head of
the Weather Bureau service, and the
president of the association, was in
the chair. Almost all of the delegates
either read papers on some phase of
meteorology, or offered some verbal sug-
gestion looking toward the improve
ment of the service. The paper read
by Mr.. Boyer was Weather Forecast
and the Public"
That the weather men enjoyed them
selves may be seen, said Mr.. Boyer,
from the number of entertainments at
which they were guests. Among these
were a very fine banquet at the Phister
Hotel. given by the citizens of Mil
waukee, a reception by the Press
Club of Milwaukee, delight
fully Bohemian affair, that was
most heartily enjoyed, tally
no ride through the city the
party on each vehicle including the
traditional guide and bugler, and a re-
ception and fine lunch at the Pabst
Brewery.
The next convention of this associa
ton. Mr.. Boyer says will be held three
years hence. and probably will be in
the South, though the exact place will
not be settled on until later.

MAY OPEN BIDS TONIGHT.
Fair Committee Postponed the Work
From Yesterday.


From Yesterday.
The bids for privileges for the State
Fair were not opened yesterday by the
Privilege Committee, as was intended.
Owing to the death of Mr.. NJ. j. Solo
mons, an uncle of Mr.. 1. A. Solomons,
chairman of the committee, the meet
ing was postponed. 1t is expected that
it will be held tonight at $3.50 O'Clock
at the residence of General Manager
A. B. Moore.
A meeting of the directors of the
Fair Association will be held this af-
ternoon at o'clock. Business of i'm
portance is to come before the board,
and it is expected that many of the
members will be present.
Nothing had been heard yesterday
from Mr.. Victor D. Levitt, represent
ing the Bostock- Farari Midway Com
pany. Secretary j C. Shaw wired Mr..
Bostock at Dayton, o., yesterday, ask
ing that he be placed in communica-
ton with Mr.. Levitt Immediately. The
directors want to see the representa-
tive of the Midway Company in order
that they may discuss a contract with
him for his show.
The ladies who are to be interested
in the fairy play to be given for the
benefit of the Fair, under the direction
of Mr.. John E. Owens, have begun re-
plying to the invitation to serve as in
structors and chaperons that were sent
out. 1t is probable that the Fair Aso-
citation will have the cooperation of
the ladies in the matter.

CANDIDATES ARE WAITING.
Hot Air VIII Flow After Executive
Committee Meets.

Committee Meets.
A meeting of the Democratic Exec
utive Committee of Chatham county
will be called by Acting Chairman
Alexander for probably Thursday or
Friday night. At that time Chairman
Lawrence of the subcommittee will
read the primary rules unanimously
agreed upon by his committee at their
recent meeting. The rules We're printed
in the Morning News at the time.
After the report of the special COM
mittee has been read it will be up to
the main body to do something. 1t is
pribable that the rules will
be accepted without any changes, but
that there will be considerable discus
sion of the subject there seems to be
no question. An effort will be made to
have an anti-vote buying clause of
some sort embodied in the rules and
the arguments pro and con promise to
be interesting and animated. Those
who believe that such a scheme would
accomplish any good, or is practicable,
are in the minority on the Executive
Committee and there appears to be no
likelihood of any change of that sort
being made
Pending the meeting of the commit
tee, and the passage of proper rules to
govern the primary called for Oct. 10,
the candidates are not having great
deal to say. They have pulled off their
coats. however, and are getting down
to hard work. Mr.. w. 3. Stubs has
not yet announced his position in the
campaign, but will probably make a
statement in the interest of harmony
very shortly.
The Chatham County Labor and
Commercial Union is scheduled for
meeting tonight. This is the Lazaron
organization that was launched last
Tuesday night under rather humorous
circumstances. 1t will be recalled that
certain utterances of Candidate Lag
aron on that occasion caused him to
have a meeting and a wordy alterca-
ton with Candidate ]. S. Collins.

TALKS IN SILENT LANGUAGE.
Pugilist Rowan Is Fined $50 for Hav-
ing Beaten a Woman.

Judge Boyle had lively grist this
morning, but most Of the culprits plead
ed not guilty.
''Silent" Rowan, deaf mute, who has
figured as a prize fighter around Butte
was arraigned on a charge Of assaulting
a woman. The woman came into court
and her appearance was sufficient to in
sure a conviction for Rowan. Her face
was battered, and she claimed. through
an interpreter, to be injured through sew
eral kicks.
The woman could not speak English.
and a friend told Judge Boyle before
court of the trouble.
Rowan could not talk at" all, and so
wrote out lengthy and comical report
of how the fight started and ended. The
deaf mute was all business. and offered
to plead guilty II the court would tell
him what the fine would be.
OF course this was refused, and "Si-
lent" pleaded guilty. anyway. His feat
