SENATORIAL CONVENTION.
VIII Probably BE Held In Savannah
Next Month.

Next Month.
No date has yet been fixed for the
Democratic Convention of the First
Senatorial District. This meeting will
be held in Savannah, and the date will
be fixed by Mr.. ]. NJ. Dixon. who was
chairman of the last Executive Com
mittee of the district. 1t is probable
that the call will be issued for some
date next month. The politicians say
that there is no reason for hurry. No
one has yet asked Mr.. Dixon to name
a date, so that there seems ITO be no
feeling that expedition should %
shown.
Mr. j. C. Moore of Groveland is the
nominee of Bryan county for the SEN
ate. lie is understood to be in accord
with the Citizens Club, and 1t is not
expected that there will be any fight
made upon his nomination. 1t is
thought that he will support the Chat
ham delegation in the House in any
of its measures that may reach the
Senate.
Chatham county holds the balance of
power in the district convention, and,
with the addition of one vote to it's
six, 1t could nominate anyone 1t might
desire. Politicians say, however, that
there is no reason to anticipate a break
in the rotation plan of awarding the
senatorship, provided Kr Moore is
found in harmony with the party in
power in this county.

MONKEYED WITH CARTRIDGE.
Little Negro Girl Wounded as Result
of Curiosity.

of Curiosity.
The childish curiosity of a little ne
gro girl, came very near resulting in
a fatal accident on yesterday. Indeed,
1t is probable that fatal results were
averted only by the proverbial thick
ness of the negro skull.
Daphne Davis, IL years old. was the
victim of her curiosity in this instance.
The girl lives with her parents at 10
Garrard lane. Finding a loaded re-
volver cartridge, of .3S caliber, she
carried it out in the yard and began
to make investigations designed to dis
close it's contents.
No satisfactory solution of the mys-
terry following visual inspection, the
girl picked up an ak and with this in
strument smote the cartridge Justify.
Effects were immediate and serious,
for the brass shell, propelled by the
full force of charge, sprang upward,
striking the girl just above the eye.
The she'll did not penetrate far. but
ploughed a rugged furrow of two in
ches in the thin layer of flesh be-
tween the scalp and the skull.
The sufferer was taken by her friends
to the Office of DR.. G. w. Heriot, where
the shell was extracted from the
wound and the wound itself dressed
While very painful and even serious,
the wound just escaped being dan
gerous and the girl is expected quickly
to recover.

LIEUT.. COMMON RESIGNS.
Has Given Up His CommissiOn with
the Emmett Rifles.

First Lieut.. A. c. Common of the
Emmett Rifles has resigned his COM
mission. He has been an officer of the
company since it's organization. Some
months ago he made a change in his
business, so that he was unable to re-
main in the city. He could not, in con-
sequence, devote his time to the COM
pany. Hoping that conditions might
change, he retained his commission.
Finally recognizing that he had slight
chance of being able to devote the
time to the company's affairs that he
wished. he sent in his resignation.
Lieut.. Common made an excellent of
ficer for while, and it was to the
regret of the Emmets that he an
nounced his purpose of resigning.

THE MINING CRISIS,
No Decision Reached at the
Scranton Conference.
ALL DAY SESSION PROVES FRUITLESS
The Statement of President Mitchell
ThrOvs No Light on the situation.
He Denie. knowledge Of Any
COncesslOns by Operators.


SCRANTON, Pa, May S.-The exec
utive boards of the United Mine Work.
ers of America for the three districts
comprising the anthracite coal region
met here ut 10 o'clock yesterday morn.
ing to consider the report Of the special
committee which had been in confer
ence with the presidents of the coal
carrying railroads and to decide wheth-
er the men are to remain at work or go
OH strike for increased pay, a shorte
days work and an insistance that the
coal shall be weighed at the mines.
The miners representatives were in
session all of the day, but nothing was
done of which any definite knowledge
would be given the public. The meet
ing as far us the outside world knows
made absolutely no change in the situ-
alton.
The thirty-four men forming the COM
mittce went into session at 10 o'clock
In Carpenters hall and remained to-
gethcr until 4:45, excepting an hour
and half for lunch. When the meet
ing adjourned, President Mitchell gave
out the following meager and indefinite
response to !; request for an account of
what had been done:
",rhe committee is canyassing the sit
uation very carefully. No decision has
as vet been reached. The committee
will meet again tomorrow at 8 o'clock
q. m"
Further than this nothing authorita-
tive could be learned of the proceed
ings.
When asked if anything had been
heard from the operators, Mr.. Mitchell
said: II have heard nothing from the
operators. No concessions have been
granted, and know nothing Of any
movement to secure concessions
The comparatively early adjourn
ment Of the meeting has led to gem
craI belief here that the miners are
waiting for something to turn up de-
spite the positive statements of Presi-
dent Mitchell that he knows of no me-
diatory moves. Many sensational sto-
rics are current, among them one to
the effect that the companies have a
thousand mcn assembled at Buffalo
ready to come on and man the pumps
and hosting engines should the fire
men and engineers go out with the
miners in case of a strike, as State
Secretary MuIlahy of the stationary
tirrmen's association has declared they
would do.
