VETERANS DEEPLY

Of Confederate Home IN Atlanta Yes
terday.
READY RESPONSE Is CERTAIN
People of Georgia Will Quickly Re,
build This Home, and Those ofSum-
ter Will Assist. Property was In.
sured For $4,000.

The destruction by fire yesterday
morning, Of the Georgia Home for Con-
tederate Veterans was a source of
deepest regret in Americus. This city
and county gave freely and gladly
their portion towards the erection of
this home years ago, and as it shelter
ed the feeble and destitute amons
Georgia's old heroes they feel the loss
as keenly as though it were a personal
one. The property was insured for
$40, 900, and this will be the neucIeus
OF fund that will be quickly raised to
rebuild the soldiers home. The Con.
federate Veterans Camp, of Sumter,
will have a meeting at 1890 O'Clock
this morning, and it is quite likely
that some step to this end will be TAX
en- at once, The home, Justly the
pride of every Georgian, was opened
only a few months ago, and nearly a
hundred aged and penniless heroes of
the sixties found refuge there. Let
Sumter county help to rebuild the
soldiers Home.

MINISTER'S PLAN
SUNDAY SERVICE
They Will Join with Business
Men in Their Meeting
Here.

The Ministers Union yesterday con-
sidered plans for a public meeting in
memoriam to the late President of the
United States. There was a large at
tendance at the meeting, and the only
idea seemed to be that the people must
be given an early opportunity to show
their love and esteem for the late chief
executive of the nation.
1t was first decided that there should
be held a meeting at either Kawaia
hao Church or the Central Union
Church, on Sunday evening, at which
time there should be addresses by
some of the clergy. and at which there
should be as we'll some memorial
adopted. After full discussion it was
decided to take no formal action which
would be binding, but to await the
action of the business men of the city,
whose intentions would be made known
in the afternoon.
The Rev. w. D. Westervelt, the Rev.
]. P. 'Erdman and H. G. Brown, were
named as committee to meet with
the business men and see what plans
were made for public gathering, and
cooperate with the commercial bodies
These gentlemen were present at the
gathering at the Chamber of Com
merce meeting rooms, and their proffer
of cooperation was submitted by Mr..
Westervelt.
After the conclusion of the meeting,
at which arrangements were made for
public meeting and general observa-
ton of the day, the committee got to-
gether and decided that there would

President, and in every such instance IT
has been an attack upon the principles or
American government as well as upon
the life of the highest Executive. 1t is
time the American people did something
to defend the lives of it's rulers. No man
should be called upon to risk his life by
being elected to rule over a great peo-
pie.
The death of President Mckinley. aside
from the awfulness of his taking or. is
Territory. He had studied the situation
here, and knew the needs of this people.
He was patient in listening to our COM
plants, yet slow in changing established
conditions. He well understood how diff
ficult it was for old systems of govern
ment to be changed for new and diff
ferent form of government; he knew
that it would take time and patience to
adjust the situation here to meet the
new conditions.
President Mckinley possessed in high
degree the genius of common sense. He
combined the rare qualities of goodness
and greatness He was the peer OF any
other ruler on the earth. Though SOL
der, he was opposed to war; yet, while
the friend of peace, he made no surren-
der of principle to maintain it. He fell
at the post of duty, through the bullet
of an assassin, to whom he was extend
ing the hand of friendship.
In all the gentle characteristics of the
heart he was child; while in the strik-
ing attributes of the mind, he was a
man conspicuously the first among the
American statesmen of his time.
Take him for all in all,
We shall not look upon his like again. y
The clerk was thereupon instructed
to enter an order adjourning court un,
til Monday morning at 10 o'clock, anf
to close all United States offices during
the day.
Judge Little's court also adjourned
for the day, yesterday morning. The
doors and Railways of the Judiciary
