Delegates Expected to Convention.
Rev. DIR. j. d. Jordan, pastor of the
First Baptist Church, returned to Sa-
vannah yesterday after some six weeks
or more spent chiefly in Franklin, Pa.
and Waukesha, Wis. In both places
DR.. Jordan reports that he had most
enjoyable visit
While in Franklin he preached once
in the First Baptist Church, an insti-
tuition noted for the exceptional size
of its Sunday-school membership, and
that of the Bible class also. The first
numbers 9o1 persons, and the second
400. Gen. Charles Miller is the super
intendent of the Sunday-school and a
teacher of the Bible class. Through
his efforts a new Sunday-school room
has just been built at a cost of $5S,000,
of which by the time of the dedica-
ton every cent had been paid and there
was still surplus of $1,000 in the treas
ury. The seating capacity of the room
is 1,400.
A memorable experience for DIR. Jor-
dan was one that he had Tuesday
night, when, in Covington, KY, he
heard for the first time William j.
Bryan make a political address. He
made one of the greatest speeches l
ever heard" said DR.. Jordan. land |
must say, since hearing him, have q
much better opinion of him than I had
before"
Discussing what he saw of the po-
litical situation during his trips, DR..
Jordan said that very pretty fight
was being waged in Pennsylvania be-
tween Patterson, Democrat, and Pen
nypacker, Republican, for the COVER
norship. Should Patterson win, DR..
Jordan says, he will be the logical can
didate for the Democratic presidential
nomination, but there is hardly any
chance of his winning.
The general opinion both in Pennsyl-
vania and in the West, DR.. Jordan
says, is that the Democrats will make
but few, if any, gains at the fall cleo
tons.
DR.. Jordan, who will begin his par
ish duties tomorrow, looks forward to
the busiest winter of his life, for in
addition to attending to the demands
of his church, he will have to make
arrangements for the meeting of the
Southern Baptist Convention, which is
to be held in this city in May, and
| which will be attended, it is expected
| by some $500 delegates.
In connection with this matter DR..
| Jordan will go to Montgomery Sept.
20, to discuss arrangements with DR.

citation, and while there he will be join
| ed by Mrs. Jordan now in Meridian

AGAINST THE COMPANY.
Jury's Verdict of $50 Damages for
Cow Killed by Car.

Jury's Verdict of $50 Damages for
Cow Killed by Car.
The appealed suit of Mrs. Julia
Davis, against the Savannah Electric
Company, was argued before jury
in Justice Bevans' court yesterday aft
ernoon. 1t was for damages to a COW
belonging to the plaintiff, and alleged
to have been killed by a car of the
West Savannah branch of the railway
company on the Louisville road last
May. 1t was first heard some time ago
by Judge Bevans, who decided in favor
of the company, and the case was
then appealed to a trial by jury.
After listening to the testimony and
the arguments of counsel. the jury
brought in verdict for the plaintiff
for the amount asked for $50, the val
ue of the cow. Slater & Morgan We're
counsel for the plaintiff, and Osborne
& Lawrence for the company.
Justice Beyans Scored Attorneys.
Some of the jurors We're COM
planning that they were kept from
their business by being called oftener
than was necessary to the magis-
trates' courts. Touching on this. Jus
tice' Bevans took occasion to explain
that the law allowed him to draw only
one panel of men for all the appeal
cases at any one term of court. 1t was
not permitted him to select new set
of jurors for each case. but the one
had to serve for all, no matter how
many they should be. He raid. fur
Their, that one of the reasons why The
jurors were bothered so often was the
laxity of attorneys in magistrates
courts. They would frequently wait I'M
til the eleventh hour TO notify the
court that they were not ready to pro-
coed with the case and. even though
the jurors had been summoned, the
lawyers would put up some legal rea-
son that he, as magistrate. had TO le-
spect. and the case would have to be
postponed. The fault lay not with the
justices, but with the attorneys. who
failed TO notify the court in time when
they were unprepared to proceed He
hoped that in future they would be
more considerate of the court and of
the citizens who had been summoned.
and who. frequently at great personal
Inconvenience, came to erye, only to
be sent away to await the lawyers
pleasure.

The Retail Merchants Association
has not abandoned its purpose of hav-
ing a talk with General superintendent
Denham of the Atlantic Coast Line rel
alive to the location of the companys
shops. Mr.. Sig Gardner. who is secre-
tary of the association, said yesterday
that it is the purpose of the commit
tee appointed some time ago to call on
Mr.. Denham as soon as absent men,
bers return to the city. The commit
tee wants to be able to report assur-
ance from Mr.. Denham that 4there Is
no likelihood of the shops being re-
moved from Savannah.
This assurance has been secured
from Mr.. Denham by the Morning
News. He said he knew of nothing to
indicate that the location of the COM
pany's shops is to be changed.
Col j. H. Estill some time ago went
to Wilmington, the headquarters of the
company, where he was informed that
there was no intention to remove the

ONE YEAR FOR A BANANA.
Charles williams Catches IL Heavy
in the City Court.

ina the City Court.
The session of the City Court yes
terday, held for the special benefit of
the misdemeanor offenders of the pre-
ceding week, was graced by the at
tendance of many of these gentry well
known to the police and. through the
published reports of their offenses, to
the public.
They have not. however. attained,
distinguished rank among criminals.
but are of that less prominent class.
the members of which are wont to sat
isfy their cravings for somebody else's
property by the peculation of articles
of small value. They make up in the
frequency of their offenses, however,
what these lack in importance and
rarely permit any great lapse of time
between the end of one term of service
on the gang and their appearance be-
for Judge Norwood, with the resulting
beginning of another.
A negro who appeared on the books
as Charles Williams, was charged with
the theft of single banana from a
stall in the market. Williams had been
strolling through and feeling, possibly.
that banana would prove a pleasant
morsel, lifted the first that came his
way. His accustomed astuteness had
failed him, however, and he was
caught. He was found guilty and sent
TO the gang for a year.
James Hunter received two sem
fences of a year each for stabbing not
in his own defense. The evidence dis
closed the fact that James was the
originator of a row with Aleck Cooper
and David Washington, during the pre-
lminary stages of which he had been
considerably worsted. In an effort to
prove to his opponents he was the best
man, he had operated on them with
a knife, to such good effect that they
had left the. field-and left it in short
order. They returned, however, with
a policeman, and the arrest of Hunter
has now been followed by his convic-
ton and the sentence to serve two
years on the gang.
A year on the gang is the term. Ed
ward Benjamin will have to serve for
the theft of case of eight dozen eggs
from E. Kohler. Benjamin simply
liked the eggs and took them, and
when confronted with the evidences of
his guilt hazarded no defense. He
pleaded guilty and the sentence fol-

recommended by the superintendent of
the Jerry McCauley Mission in New
York. The greater part of his life has
been spent in the work, and his faith
full efforts have resulted in a great
extension of the work of the local
unions, with which he has been con-
nected from time to time. The new
superintendent is a man of education
and of travels. He has travelled in al
most every known section of the globe.
His natural business and executive
ability, combined with the insight into
human nature acquired by years of
travel and familiarity with the work,
particularly fit him for the work in
which he is engaged. Mrs. Mcconnell
, will have charge of the woman's home,
and will doubtless, as heretofore, be
of great service to the superintendent
in the discharge of his duties.

FARMER IS A BANKRUPT.
Owes Debts That He Finds He IL
Unable to Pay.

Owes Debts Tint He Finds He Is
Unable to Pay.
Alexander S. Williamson, living near
the town of Bridge, in Emanuel coun-
ty, who gives his occupation as a
farmer, filed an application for relief
from his debts in bankruptcy in the
office of the clerk of the United States
District Court yesterday.
The schedules appended to the petit
ton show that the bankrupt owes debts
amounting to $2,0S0, while his assets,
consisting of personality, are said to be
worth $1,000. He prays that all the
assets may be set aside to him as a
homestead exemption in accordance
with the laws of the state.
The petitioner is represented by
Travis & Edwards. The matter will
be referred by the clerk to Hon. A. H.
MacDonell, referee in bankruptcy, be-
fore whom the first meeting of credit
ors will be held and other proceed
ings taken.
