To BRAVES IN CITY,

Barbecue.
REPAsT IS AYsUMprUoUs ONE
Welcome to These Hunting Grounds
Extended The Red Men. After all
Business Guests Are Entertained at
Magnolia Dell.

The Red Men of Georgia, after hav.
ing been extended royal welcome to
Americus yesterday morning and made
to feel that these hunting grounds was
indeed THERE, were shown furtherevi
dence of hopltallty in monster barbe-
cue served in the afternoon.
And there good cheer ruled supreme
as the braves munched the savory roast
buffalo, the succulent venison and the
barbecued piglet.
The Grand Council was convened at
8 O'Clock yesterday morning in the
auditorium of the City Hall, where the
business sessions are held. There was
a large attendance.
Upon the assem- bling of the Great
Council yesterday Mr., E. A. Nisbet
welcomed the visitors upon behalf of
the city, while Mr.. James r. Williams
extended the welcome of the Lama
hasses. To these very happy addresses
Mr.. John T. Abney. made eloquent re-
sponse upon behalf of the Council.
The CounciI then resolved itself into
a business meeting, disposing of vari-
GUS matters coming before it, incIud-
ing reports of delegates.
The election of officers was IN order,
and attended with the following result:
Great Sachem, M. G. White, of Co
lumbus.
Great Senior Sycamore, Thomas II.
Jeffries, of Atlanta.
GreatJunior Sycamore w, W. Dykes,

Great Representative to Great Coun-
Gil of the United States, John F. Kel-

These were the elective officers;
number of appointive officers will be
selected at the business meeting this
morning.
The business session was continued
until $3.50 p. m. when the braves,
guided by the warriors of Lannahas-
see Tribe, were conducted to Magno-
liza Dell where the odors of rich barbe-
cue were waited upon every zephyr,
gladdening the hearts of the good In
dIans.
The attendance was quite large, the
ladies of the auxiliary aud many citi
zens mingling with the braves and en-
ioying the Viands.
The guests listened to no long
speeches, happily omitted from this
programme, but rather discussed the
menu so temptingly served. It was
gala occasion indeed and Magnolia
Dell, with it's beauties and barbecue
feast, will not very soon be forgotten
There was nothing doing" during
the remainder of the afternoon except
important committee work.
Last night, at the wigwam of Lama
hassee Tribe, the degree "Order of
Pocahontas" was conferred upon thlr-
ty candidates, both gentlemen and
ladies. The work of comforting this
degree was done very skillfuIly by a
team of sixteen ladies of Tallulah
Lodge, of Atlanta.
The Grand Lodge will again con-
Yene this morning at $50 O'Clock,
when all business of the council will
be finished.

GENERAL MILES AND THE AID.
 MINISTRATION.

It is announced that President Roose- welt has decided, without waiting to consult Secretary Root, that he will not further consider the subject of retiring Lieutenant General Miles, who is to be allowed to serve autil his retirement is brought about by the regular process. The presidents conclusion, it is said, was quietly communicated to friends of General Miles and to political friends of the president who had joined in urg- him to let ths Miles case rest until 1t solves itself in regular order.
 Doubtless another reason also infu- enced the president in arriving at this cohelusion. It will be remembered that General Miles, last February, in n communication to Secretary Root, charged that the war iu the Philip. pines wGs beingUouducted with marked severity, The president and secretary assumed to be righteously indignant that the lieutenant general should pre- sume to make charge unsupported by evidence. It ha5 since transpired that Secretary Root was then iu poses- session of the report of Maior Corne- lius Gardener, civil governor of the province ot Tayabas, revealing the barbarous warfare carried on by the American army iu his province. It was this report of Major Gardener on which General Miles statement was based, and which the administration was striy- ing to suppress. The correspondence between General Miles and Secretary Root WAS made public for the purpose Of humiliating and discreditjug Miles, but the plot was exposed by the senate committee on the Philippines calling for the Gardiner report and giving it publicity.
 The deuoument mnst be humiliating to the administration, and 1t is not to be wnodered at that the president should desire to drop the harassment of Miles rather than face strongly ad- verse public opinion.
