by the Plant System and the Southern

and East to Savannah, whose favorable
impressions of the city could not have
been added to by the inferior passenger
accommodations that were provided. With
the new station, however, all this will be
changed. The old passenger terminals
of the Plant System and the Southern VIII

lists will embark and disembark in the
new station.
The Savannah Union Station building

Brick will be used in the construction of
the building as the principal material, but
there will be a great deal of ornamental
stone work about It. Attractive features
of the structure will be the tail towers,

for and fountain is 20 play, will be

Plans for the building were drawn by
Mr.. Frank p. Milburn of Charlotte, N. c.,
whose work was accepted by the Savan-

some eight other architects had been care

$4,000 to erect the building, while the
contract for the approaches was let for
a little more than 100000.

Mr.. B. Dub, proprietor Of the Screven
land, Bohemia, tomorrow. He will be
accompanied by his daughter, Mrs. Will
liam T. Dixon.
Mr. Dub left Bohemia in 1858. He has
been back there but once since, and that
was in 1882. He has been in the hotel
business thirty-two years. That is longer
than any other man in the United States
has been in that business.
He began his career as hotel keeper
in Macon Ga. where he kept the Lanier
House, and where he made small for
tune. In 1879 he leased the Planters
House in Augusta, Ca, which at that
time had the reputation of being the most
aristocratic hotel in the South and where
he entertained many notable guests Gifts
from patrons received while there he still
shows with pride. In 1884 he leased the
Screven House, in this city, and in 1856
he purchased it, and still conducts it to
the satisfaction of large number OF pa

and nieces and other relatives, all OF
whom have prospered. One of his broth
ers is chief engineer of the general in
spection of all of the Austrian railroads.
The other owns a large silkvelvet fac

and also a large plantation near the city
of his birth. His cousin, P. H. Dub, Is
procurator of the House of Rothschilds in
Vienna, and being the sole manager, is
the only one who has the legal right TO
sign the Rothschild name.
While a citizen of Macon, Mr.. Dub was

honored citizen, as well as SUCCESSFUL
business man, during his residence in this

Several Members of the Savannah
Branch to Attend Boston Conven-


The Jubilee Convention of the Young
Mems Christian Association of the United
States and Canada will be held in Me-
chanics' Hail, Boston, Mass, June IL to
Is, 1901. This Convention will celebrate
the flftieth anniversary of the organiza-
ton of the first Young Mems Christian
Associations on the American Continent
in Montreal and Boston in 1851. Its pur-
pose will be to review the progress OF the
Associations of North America for the
half century, to examine critically the re-
suits, methods, and actual conditions and
plans OF these associations in the light
of the providential principles and purposes
of the association movement, to fnaugu-
rate an aggressive spiritual movement IN
the associations on behalf of the young
men of North America and of the nom
Christian world, and to promote world
wide unity of this work for young men.
All departments of the association work
Will be represented by delegates at this
convention, including leaders from city
and town associations, as well as from
the organizations for students, railroad
men, soldiers and sailors, colored
young men, and other special
classes. 1t is already certain that the
convention VIII De InS EdIBeSl anu AiOSt
representative gathering of association
men ever held on this continent. II is
expected that about one hundred gentle
men who are deeply interested in asso-
citation work Will be present from Europe,
Asia, Australasia, South Africa and South
America. Among the countries to be thus
represente are: Austria-Hungary, Bel
GUM, Denmark Finland, France, Ger
many, Great Britain and ireland, Hol-
hand, Italy, Norway, Portugal, Russia,
Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, China, India,
Japan, Australia, South Africa, Brazil.
In connection with the Jubilee Conven-
ton, il is eminently proper that there
should be a jubilee exhibit. The object of
this exhibit is not only to show fittingly
the evolution of the association movement
in North America during the past fifty
years, but also adequately to represent the
means used, the varied character and
quality of work done, and the results at
tanned In the principal lines Of activity In
the different kinds of associations. 1t Is
believed that this exhibit will be one of
the most important features Of the con-
venton, and will be of far-reaching Sig
nifcance to the movement as a whole.
1t is expected that not only will a num-
Der Of the Savannah members of the K.
M. c. A. attend this convention, but that
quite a number of secretaries from cities
in the southwestern states will pass
through this city in a body, taking the
steamer from Savannah either direct to
Boston or going there via New York.

streets, by permission of the City Coun-
Gil, has been closed.
For several weeks W. J. Oliver & Co.,
of Langley. s. c., have been employed
in the construction of the some twelve
miles of track that will constitute the
approaches to the Union Station to afford
connection between the lines of the Sea-
board and the Plant System and the sta
ton, the Southern using the same line
as the Plant System. The construction
OF the approaches, too is to be completed,
under contract, by Jan. l, and the prog
ress that has thus far been made would
indicate that there will be no difficulty
in concluding the work within the speci-
fed time.
The Seaboard Air Line now uses the
Central Railways passenger depot, and

L. Upshaw and Charles Mosely, the ne

by Detective Murphy and Patrolman
Crosby was reported In the Morning
News. appeared in Police Court yesterday
morning and were dismissed by Recorder
Myrick. The police feared when the men
we're arrested that there was no law to
hold them responsible for the game they
had been playing.
The police say that the negroes have
made several thousand dollars with their
particular form Of graft" and II APP

Suckers too, seemed plentiful and a
young man appeared yesterday morning
and told the Recorder that he had been
done for $50 by the prisoners. As much
as the court wanted 10 see the negroes

can be held responsible for their acts.

the game Of the men was TO make a bor-

produce a deck OF marked cards and two
sets OF dice, one set being loaded. They
would give an Illustration to their in

game could be played. The promise OF big
returns for a little money made the vic

borrowed and the negroes would return

With such an increased volume of bust
