SHAW HELD FOR MURDER.
CorOner's Jury Says Killing of john
son WAS UnjustifiabIe.


son Was UnjustifiabIe.
An inquest was held in the Police Court
room yesterday afternoon over the body
of Mathew Johnson, the negro man shot
through the heart by Elijah Shaw on
Stiles avenue. Sunday. Some half dozen
witnesses were examined and the jury
agreed on a verdict of murder without
much discussion on the subject.
Tho story of the killing was told yes
tcrday in the Morning News, and accord
ing to the testimony of eye-witnesses, the
boy Shaw was the aggressor from start
manner, and threw a brick at him before
firing two shots from his revolver. The
Witnesses pictured the prisoner as a thor
oughly abandoned lad, and his appear
ance was by no means in his favor. He
was taken before the jury and identified
by those witnesses who did not know
him by name.
One of the witnesses. an old man, named
George Curry, stated that after the trag-
edy he chased Shaw, and that the boy
shot at him with a musket. The old man
said that he saved his life by jumping
in the canal, and that If he had not
done that Shaw would have turned loose
a second load. Curry is a typical country
negro and made an amusing witness. At
ter the inquest Shaw was committed to
jail by the coroner on a warrant charging
murder.

WILL OVERRIDE VETO.
ALDERMEN SAID TO BE A UNIT FOR
PAVING CASTOR STREET.
MAYORS MESSAGE READY.
WILL GO TO THE. COUNCIL TO-MoR-
ROW NIGHT.

Against n Brick Paving and for Re-
men Think Otherwise and Expect
to Pass the Ordinance Over the
Mayors Vetc-Threat to Take the
Matter Into the Courts If a Brick
Pavement Is Put Down.
The CASTOR street paving ordinance will
be up in the City Council again to-mor-
row night. The ordinance, vetoed by the
Mayor. will be returned to Council, with
the Mayors message setting forth his
reasons for having vetoed the measure
The aldermen are now said to be a unit
in favor of paving the street with vitri-
fled brick and it is said that there will
not be vote to sustain the Mayors veto.
This. however. is in advance of the May
or's message, and it cannot be said what
showing against paving at this time he
may make. 1t may be strong enough to
have influence.
1t is said that the Mayors message
will. not be the only instrument submit
ted in the meeting. Two or three of the
aldermen who have been most active on
behalf of the ordinance have, it Is I'M
derstood, prepared a statement in sup
port of their position, and this will be
be introduced. Both the Mayor and the
aldermen will seek to show that it would
be advantageous to take such action in
the premise as they advocate. The Mayor
will seek to convince that it would be
to the interest of the city to restore the
shell pavement, while the aldermen will
try to show that the proper course
would be to pave with brick.
An opponent of the paving measure, a
lawyer, who has been very active to pre-
vent any other than a shell pavement,
intimated that the matter might reach
the Supreme Court of the United States.
The jurisdiction of that court, he said.
would prevail because of the intention to
substitute a new pavement for the shell
pavement already down. He says he has
a decision of the court upon just such
a case.
A settlement of the question will doubt
less be reached. The aldermen pushing
the measure say that 1t will be passed to-
morrow night over the Veto 1t will then
be a law, and the paving will be done
as soon that already mapped out and
under way has been completed. That
probably, would not be within less than
six weeks. Repairs. in the meantime
are being made on certain portions of
CASTOR street, where shells are being
dumped to fill up holes.

CAN'T LEAVE STATIONS.
New Ruling Relative to Movements
of Military Companies.

A new law for the retention of military
companies at their stations has been
evolved by the authorities at Atlanta.
This demands that no company shall leave
it's station without permission from head
quarters at Atlanta.
1t has been the case that a company
might move from point to point within the
state, but this privilege is hereafter to
be denied. Permission must first be OBJ
tanned from the Governor or his represen-
tative the adjutant general. No COM
pany can even take such trip as to Ty-
bee without such permission. The only
exception that is made is to allow the
companies to visit the Avondale Rifle
Range at will. The following is an ex-
tract from an order published for the
First Regiment Infantry:
Attention of company commanders is
invited 10 the necessity of applying for
permission prior to any change of station.
whether armed or unarmed, even If the
place visited be situated in the same coun-
ty; Avondale Rife Range excepted, in the
case OF the Savannah companies"

THE LEAvEN AT WORK.
What Is Said of the Good Accom-.
pIished by Sam Jones.


pIished by Sam Jones.
Men and women are full of the results
of the Sam Jones meetings. MANY of
them have been talking about what the
services have accomplished, and they
seem confident that they have been a
power for. good in the community. Among
the church people who have indorsed the
sam Jones meetings, it is the universal
verdict that great deal of good has been
accomplished, and scarcely one of them
will fail to relate instances that have
come to his knowledge of saIvatfons thar
have been wrought through the agency
of the evangelist. ft--P -
Speaking of the effect of the services.
one gentleman said yesterday: you will
ind evidence on many sides that the re-
suits have been all that could be wished.
1t was only day or two ago that a
father was talking to me about the meet
ings. He is a good churchman himself
and his wife and all the members of his
family, save one, have been religious. The
exception is son, who has been a con-
frmed drunkard. The father told me
that the services had been effectuaI in
retaining his son from drink and in
turning him to religion.
wight after night, at the Tabernacle,
have seen man who has borne one
of the worst regulations of all the men
in Savannah. He has two killings to his
record, but he seems thoroughly in earn
est at the meetings / have seen him
sober and serious, with his mind bent
upon the contemplation of the things that
Mr.. Jones commends to his attention, OF
course, it may be that the reformation
that seems TO have been effected may not
prove permanent, but that will not be
Sam Jones' fault. Under the influence of
the preacher the man has been turned, if
but temporarily, from the paths of the
wicked, and surely that is something
And the town is full of just such in
stances"
Another gentleman was talking about
the results. He said: 81 believe it can
be stated without any danger of contra
dictiou, that the only industries and oc-
| equations in the city that have or will
suffer because of the preaching of Sam
| Jones are the saloons, the gambling
| houses and the resorts of i'll fame. Ger
| tainly the loss that may be sustained by
those institutions can be borne. by them
without the city sharing in it. l cannot
| see that the city can be in any way in
jured If the saloons, gaming houses and
places of prostitution are sufferers from
the tongue of Sam Jones'"

WITHST00D ONE ATTACK.
That Was the Only Physical Assault
Ever Made on sam Jones.

Ever Made on sam Jones.
One might think that it would be diff
cult for a man like Rev. Sam Jones, who
speaks his mind upon all matters and all
men, to enjoy immunity from personal
attacks in which more than the prick of
the pen might figure. Yet it seems a mat
ter of little difficulty for Mr. Jones, who,
in all his experience as a preacher and
in his fulminations against evils and evil
practices that he ebhors, has been at
tackled but once.
1t was some years ago in Palestine.
Tex, that Mr.. Jones had his first and
last fight because of what he had said
upon the platform. He had the Mayor
of the town for his opponent then. The
Mayor had been denounced by the preach
er, who scored him so severely and ar
rayed the people against him in such
solid order than he was forced to resign.
Some months after his trip to Palestine
upon his religious mission, Mr.. Jones WIS.,
tied the place again to deliver lecture.
WhHe he was on his way to the train to
leave the Holy Land he was met by
the Mayor, who demanded to know if he
was speaking to Sam Jones. The preach
er admitted his identity, whereupon the
Mayor whacked him across the face with
a heavy cane.
Now, despite Mr.. Jones' ills and the raw
ages that have been made upon his
strength by the complaints he sometimes
mentions in his sermons, it Is not that
OF babe. One looking at his well-knit
frame can see that. in spite of his 140
pounds, he has no little athletic vigor,
and some years ago, about the time of
MS visit to Palestine, he was no mean
opponent in rough and tumble.
NO sooner had the Mayor struck the
preacher than the latter had his hand
upon the cane. He wrested it from he
Mayor and gave him a taste of his own
medlclne. Blow after blow fell UPON the
mayor bringing him to his knees. Salts
hed with the punishment he had admin
istered' Mr.. Jones finally desisted and
oroNe the cane. Going Immediately to
the nearest telegraph station he ad-
dressed a long telegram to his wife, de-
string to let Mrs. Jones know Just what
mad happened. He wanted her to have
MS account of the affairs, rather than
that of the newspapers

Albert Weeks Fell or Was Pushed
From Trolley Car.

Weeks, fell from a Whitaker street troll
ley car at Charlton street last night and
struck on his head on the cobble stones,
making an ugly wound. Young Weeks
Dispensary where his wound was dressed
He stated that he had jumped on the
car and that when the conductor saw him
he showed him to the ground. The boy
admitted that it had not been his inten-
ton to ride as passenger, but said that
the trolley car man had pushed him to the
ground in a spirit. of wantonness. The
conductor of the car denies that he had
showed young Weeks and claimed that the
boy fell in trying to jump from the
moving car. The matter was not reported
at police headquarters.

COLLECTIONS 81 ,o2e so FAR,
The Amount Taken In Up to Yester-
day at the Park Tabernacle,

The collections at the Park Tabernacle,
up to yesterday, amounted to $1O29. This
was the information given by Rev. Os-
good F. Cook, pastor of Grace Methodist
Church, who is custodian of the funds.
This was for fifteen days, so that the
average has been but little in excess of
the $50 that was given by Rev. Mr.. w.
A. Nisbet as an estimate. Messrs. Jones
and Stuart, the evangelists, it is said,
have never held series of meetings in
which the collections did not result in
larger amounts.
