GEN. GORDON's LECTURE.

Gen. John b. Gordon, command
chief of the United Confeder-
ate Veterans arrived in the city
yesterday at 1:45 p. m, TO fill his
engagement to lecture under the
auspices of the ladies of the Meth
odist church.
Gen. Gordon was not expected
until 4:22, and the plans to give
him a rousing reception at the de-
pot on the part Of the veterans and
Daughters of the Confederaoy could
not be carried out. The veterans
and ladies, however, rendered Gen.
Gordon an informal reception at
the Exchange hotel at 6 o'clock,
which proved an exceedingly
pleasant occasion, and later on
members of Camp j. B. Robertson
escorted their beloved chief to the
opera house and occupied seats on
the platform during his address.
The distinguished soldier, states

DON'T WANT THE CONVICTS.
Committees Chairman Says That Is
the General Cry

Charles Garfunkel, chairman of the
committee from the Retail Merchants
Association, charged with the express
sion Of the associations disapproval of
the employment of convict labor with
in three miles of the city limits, said
last night that he has been approached
by many people, who have not hesi-
tated to declare that they are greatly
opposed to the use of convicts by any
ma nufacturing or industrial enterprise
within the limits indicated.
Not only merchants" said Mr. Gar
funkel. but many others have said
that they believe the employment of
conYicts within or near the city's limits
would prove hurtful to its general bust
ness interests. l have not heard any,
one say that the employment of con-
victs would benefit the city. Nobody
seems to be in favor of this departure
from the use of free labor"
Mayor Myers was asked If the city
would take any steps in the matter of
the employment of convicts. He re-
piled that he thought the matter would
be brought to the attention of Mayor
Bridges Smith of Macon, president of
the Georgia Mayors Association. The
association might give it their consid-
Grafton. The Endorsement of such a
body, he thought, would have great
weight with the Legislature, if a bill,
seeking the enactment of law to pre-
vent the employment of convicts within
two or three miles of the limits of a
city were proposed.
81 do not think that the employment
of convicts in mines or in stone quar-
ries is hurtful to free labor" said the
Mayor, but they should not be util-
in 10 10

free labor

STANDS BY TROUPE.
Manager of "Life's Great Lesson
Has Paid Fares.

Manager of "Life's Great Lesson"
Has Paid Fares.
Mainly because the star Miss Freda
Gallick, is indisposed, and for other
reasons, the company that has been
touring the South with "Life's Great
Lesson" will return to New York on
the City of Memphis Tomorrow The
company started out three weeks ago
under the management of Colgate
Baker a Milwaukee newspaper man,
and husband of the star.
There was some little strife in the
company, but Mr.. Baker says his wife's
illness is responsible for his determine
ton to end his tour of the South, and
return to New York The company,
he says, will lay off for a week or
two and rebook. A different sched-
ule will be made up and a new leading
man will be secured. 1t appears that
the feeling between Manager Baker,
his wife, and Frank Gheen, the leading
man, was to say the least not cordial.
The leading man made the statement
that he had left the company, and that
it had been disbanded because no sal
aries had been paid. Mr.. Baker denies
that the company has been disbanded.
He says while the leading man will be
given his walking papers the company,
when it starts out again, will be prac-
tically as it is now. To refute a state
ment made by Gheen that he had
salary coming to him Manager Baker
last night displayed receipt in full for
the leading mans services. He also
showed where he has purchased tickets
for the entire company on the City of
Memphis, which sails tomorrow.
Mr.. Baker was quite exercised when
he learned of the statement made by
Gheen. He declared that he had not
deserted the members of the company
and that he had made an amicable
settlement with each one and he had
receipts to prove the assertion. Besides
being the husband of the star and the
manager, Mr.. Baker is the author of
the production. "Life's Great Lesson"
is a pretty four-act drama and the
few who saw it played at the Savannah
Theatre Tuesday night were pleased
with it. Mr.. Baker believes that he
will be successful with the production
after his wife has recovered from her

TWO ACCIDENTS IN A NIGHT.
Mr.. Noble Jones' Experience in At
iaHtR.


Mr.. G.. Noble Jones was the victim
of two very unfortunate and at the
same time most singular accidents, last
night in Atlanta. He was thrown from
two different hacks and injured, in two
sections of the city. the two accidents
occurring within half an hour of each
other. His injuries were slight, though
IN both cases the hacks were almost
demolished, and the drivers badly in
jured.
Mr.. Jones. who has been visiting in
the caDital for several days, where he
went in the interest of Mr.. Newton
Morris for the speakership of the House
of Representatives, had been at the
Kimball, hob-nobbing with the senators
and representatives Shortly before
midnight he took a hack for the resi-
dence of his relatives who reside on
Washington Heights.
At the junction of Hunter street and
Central avenue the hack was struck
by a Rapid Transit car. going down
grade at high rate of speed Mr.
Jones was precipitated from the vehi-
Gle to the brick streetway. The driver
too was thrown out, and the hack was
turned over and broken to pieces. The
driver was badly injured, and ply
stefan was summoned. 1t was marvel
Gus that the injuries sustained We're
not greater, for the hack was literally
wrecked and both occupants thrown a
considerable distance.
Mr.. Zones secured another hack, and
after some delay occasioned by the
inquiries of the cars crew, continued on
his journey. Shortly before reaching
his destination the horse took fright
and ran away. After running several
squares at break-neck speed, he ran
the hack into a telegraph pole. over
turning II and throwing both occupants
out. Neither were badly hurt, both
receiving bruises and scratches.
Mr.. Jones did not venture a third ex-
perience. He limped to a corner and
awaited a car. He will remain in At
'anta few days longer on a visit to
his relatives. Mr.. Jones' Mr. ]. Ran
dolph Anderson. Mr.. Robert M. Hitch
and Maj. j. Ferris Cam composed the
Savannahians who supported Mr.. Nor

who said You will like me if you like
my essays, for they are myself" And
so Paups advice about the ministry
was just what he did.
Charge TO the Candidate.
In addressing himself to the candi-
date for ordination, Rev. VanDeventer
said that it was for him to set an ex-
ample for his flock, for he
would find that the church
would not go far in advance
of its pastor. His exhortation to his
congregation should be Come, let us
do this. brethren" lie had been sum-
moned to a holy calling, let him see
that he be worthy of the distinction.
After the sermon by Rev. Mr.. Van
Deventer, the ordaining prayer was
offered by Rev. John G. Norris. After
the prayer the congregation resumed
their attitudes, the candidate for or
dination remaining kneeling, while the
preachers representing the various
Baptist congregations of the city, laid
their hands upon his head.
Presented the Bible.
The Rev. Mr.. Arnett of Sylvania, a
lifelong friend of Mr.. Lees father. and
likewise a friend of the newly ordain-
ed minister, then presented him with a.

delivered by Rev. Mr.. Cartin of Egypt.

dalned, and who some time ago per-
formed his marriage ceremony.
This closed the exercises, after which
a charge to the congregation was de-
,livered by Rev. DIR. ]. D. Jordan, the
pastor. He charged his hearers to re-
member the ordained in their prayers
and do everything in their power to
aid him. After the charge of the pas
tor, Rev. Mr.. Lee himself performed his
first service as an ordained servant of
God in pronouncing the benediction.

HAS WAYS OF ITS OWN.
Talk About the Southern Railway
and Florida East Coast.

Talk About the Southern Railway
and Florida East Coast.
The report that the Southern Rail-
way is about to acquire the Florida
East Coast Railway, which appeared
in the Morning News yesterday, caused
general interest among railroad men.
Some said they thought such a deal
would be a good thing for Florida and
for business interests generally. 1t
would mean that the Southern would
run almost to the southern extremity
of Florida, as it now has trackage
rights over the Atlantic Coast Line to
Jacksonville.
The Florida East Coast Railroad, Mr.
H. NJ. Flagler's wonderful piece of
property, has always been operated in
a way peculiar to itself. A change in
this method it is said, would probably
follow the property's acquisition by the
Southern, and railroad men say they
would like to see it.
THE Florida East Coast" said a
railroad man yesterday, has ways
that are distinctly it's own. OF course,
it has a perfect right to operate as it
pleases. but it's methods are so bizarre
as to cut in somewhat on general
methods. For instance, the Florida
East Coast won't let one of it's own
freight cars off it's line. At Jackson
vile freight has to be transferred from
its cars to those of other lines
Mr.. Charles Patton, travelling freight
and passenger agent of the Burlington
Route, headquarters Atlanta, was
among the visitors in Savannah yester-
day.
Mr.. w. ]. Craig. general passenger
agent of the Atlantic Coast Line
headquarters Wilmington, is expected
in Savannah to-day.
