BIBLE IN THE SUPREME COURT.
Case to Prevent Its Reading in School
Reaches Nebraska Bench.

The mandamus suit to prevent the
reading of the Bible, reading hymns, or
offering prayer in the public schools of
Nebraska, has reached the Supreme
Court on appeal and is expected to be ar
gued at an early day. The plaintiff is
Daniel Freeman of Gage County, and the
defendants the directors of school district
No. 2 For three years Mr.. Freeman has
made an energetic but unsuccessful fight
against the use of the Bible in this school.
One of the significant statements in the
answer on behalf of the school district
is that Leon Czolgosz repudiated the
Bible and blasphemed the hymns sung
in the school, and which were among the
fayorites of William Mckinley.

it's dependencies, is the fourth country in
the world, in order of population, and has
about 100000 inhabitants, or almost
the same number as the United States.
The five most populous countries to-

MUST DECIDE TO-DAY
REFORMATORY QUESTION TO BE
SUBMITTED TO THE VOTERS.
LIGHT VOTE is EXPECTED.
NOT BELIEVED MASSES WILL TURN
OUT TO EXPRESS A CHOICE.

Opposition to ReformatOry Has
Gained i'm Strength, While Many OF
It's Earnest Advocates Have Be
come Indifferent-The County Conn
nnissiOners' Decision to, Erect n
Separate DOrmitOry for Juvenile
Prisoners Lessened the Interest of
the Former Advocates of a Re-
formatOry-The Qualifications Ne
cessary to Vote in the Election.
The election to determine the ques-
ton of a reformatory or prison farm
for Chatham county will be held at
the Court House to-day. The polls will
open at 7:24 o'clock in the morning
and close at 6:24 o'clock in the even
ing.
Everything is in readiness for the
election. The lists for the managers
and clerks have been prepared and
yesterday evening the steps by which
the voters approach the windows in
which the boxes are located were dug
out of the dust of the Court House
cellar and placed in position for use.
The managers and clerks of election
have been instructed to report to Mr..
G.. Reuben Butler who will act as cleo
ton superintendent, at 6:45 o'clock this
morning, for the purpose of taking the
oath of office.
1t is not expected very large vote
will be polled. as experience teaches it
is difficult to get the ordinary Chatham
county voter to the polls to express an
opinion on a matter of principle solely,
when there are no offices in issue and
no spoils to parcel out. AS stated in
the Morning News yesterday the inter
est of many of the most earnest advo-
Gates of the reformatory has been
practically killed by the determination
of the County Commissioners to erect
and maintain a separate dormitory for
the use of misdemeanor prisoners I'M
der the age of Is years, which to their
mind will answer practically the same
purpose.
The qualifications for voting at the
election are exceedingly simple. All
citizens who were registered at the
time of the general election in Octo-
Der, 1901, or who have become regis
tered since, and are not otherwise dis
qualified, are entitled to cast a vote.

TO BE MADE A PRIEST.
Interesting Ceremony to Take Place
in Cathedral To-day.


In the Cathedral of st. John the Bap-
fist Mr.. r. NJ. Hamilton, who during
the present week has received the ord
nance of the relationship and the
deaconship will receive this morning
the final degree of the priesthood of
the Roman Catholic Church. The GER
emony will take place at the o'clock
mass and as were the other two de-
grees, will be given by the Rt. Rev.
b. j. Kelley, Bishop of Savannah as
sisted by Rev. Father r. F. Kennedy
and Rev. Father P. A Halpin.
The ceremony is a most interesting
and impressive one. The candidate for
the honors of the priesthood will ap-
pear in the vestments of a deacon and
will be called on by Father Kennedy,
acting archdeacon, to stand forth while
the admonitions of the rank are read
to him by the Bishop. During the
Litany of the Saints which will follow
the candidate will lie PROSTATE before
the altar.
At another and later part of the GER
emony the thumbs and index fingers of
the candidate will be annointed with
holy oil, and, after the impress of
hands by the bishop and clergy. he
will receive the power of offering holy
sacrifice, the power to remit sins and
the instructions to go forth and preach
the word of God. He will then be
clothed in the vestments of the priest
hood AT the conclusion of the cere-
monies the newly priest will
promise reverence and obedience to his
bishop. and in turn will receive from
Bishop Kelley the kiss of peace. Faith
or Hamilton will say his first mass to-
morrow at 10 80 o'clock

FIRED OFF THE TRAIN.
Passenger who Was short on Cash
Made to Get on.

Philip T. Regowin filed suit agains.
the Savannah. Florida and Western
Railway in the City Court yesterday.
The plaintiff wants $1,000 damages for
the wrong and injury to which he was
subject by the agents and servants of
the defendant.
On January 30 last he bought tick
ct from Savannah to Brunswick and
on saying that he expected to take
limited train was further required to
buy a seat in the chair car between
this city and Jesup For the seat he
gave up % cents additional.
He had two small paper-covered par
GELS with him and when the conduc-
tor of the train saw these he informed
the plaintiff he would have to pay rs
cents for their transportation. He said
he only had II cents and was told
this would not do. Then he offered
to pledge his watch for the payment
of the money demanded of him, but
this also he was informed would not
answer. The end of the matter was
that he was fired off the car at Bur-
roughs.
He thinks that this conduct on the
part of the conductor was without war
rant of law or justice, and that for the
wrong done him and the indignity he
was made to suffer he is entitled to
damages. The plaintiff is represented
by O'Connor, O'Byrne & Hartridge..

THE A. VETSBURG COMPANY.
Petition for Its Incorporation Filed
i'm Superior Court.


An application for the Incorporation
of the A. Vetsburg Company was filed
yesterday in~the office of the clerk of
the Superior Court. The capital stock
of the company is to be $4,000 divided

The incorporators named in the pc
tition are Herman Myers, Poseph Ros-
enheim, B. H. Levy, Leopold Adler,
Edward Karow, LeeRoy Myers, J. A.
Einstein, S. Herman, Joseph Belsinger,
M. Blumberg & Son, all of Savannah,

eral merchandise, and asks to be grant
ed the right to manufacture, buy and
sell personal property of every descrip-
tion and generally to exercise such
powers and privileges as are neces-
sarily incident to the transaction of
it's business.
1t is provided that the company shall
be closed up at any time it is so de-
cided by a two-thirds vote of the stock
holders. The petitioners are represent
ed by Garrard & Meldrim.

HEAD OF INVESTMENT co.
MIR. Erwin VIII Retain That Place
After the Consolidation.

After the Consolidation.
President r. G. Erwin of the Plant
System will remain at the head of the
Plant Investment Company which will
not be disrupted with the transfer of
the Plant System to the Atlantic Coast
Line The Plant Investment Company
has many interests, and before the or
ganization can go out of business there
will be many things to demand the at
tention of its executive officers and
directors.
On July the formal transfer of the
Plant System will be made. President
Erwin said yesterday that he will be
in New York for a time, at all events
after the transfer, and will continue
TO devote his attention to the affairs
of the Plant Investment Company.
Mr.. Erwin was seen by a represen-
tative of the Morning News, to whom
he talked of Plant System matters
This was just before his departure for
the South. He will spend several days
out on the line of the system before
returning to Savannah.
Speaking of the Plant System Hos
pital and Relief Department, Mr.. Err
win said that the employees and Off
Gals who are now insured in it, will
have no reason for apprehension on the
score of their contracts. Those con-
tracts, he said, will be honored by the
Atlantic Coast Line, and it is safe. to
say that the holders will be given ad-
vantages, rather than suffer, by the
transfer from one line to the other. 1t
is probable, Mr.. Erwin thinks, that
there will be a consolidation of the two
hospital and relief departments.

zine Music Free.

The weekly piano player recital at
McArthur's yesterday was largely at
tended and was the best entertainment
The programme was an extended one
and embraced all the leading new mu-
sic, rendered as it is at the 50 theaters.
Savannahians do not know what they
are missing by not attending these Fri
day afternoon concerts. They are free
and as people find out what an inter
esting programme is given them the
attendance increases.
Mr.. Banks, who manages this branch
of the business, announces that next
Fridays programme will be exception
ally fine. And the chances are that
the attendance will be greater than it
was Yesterday.
