SAM JONES POPULARITY.
HichmOnd Papers Think He Has
Lost Much of II Recently.

The Richmond papers are discussing
whether or not Rev. Sam P. Jones is
loosing his hold on the public as
speaker and lecturer, and seem ill.,
clined to believe that he is, basing their
belief on the result of the recent lee
ture tour of Virginia that was made by
the noted evangelist. His critics con-
cede that Rev. Mr.. Jones has lost none
of the characteristics that secured him
fame and popularity on platform and in
pulpit, but think that they have lost
their attractiveness to the public.
An instance of this" states a recent
paper, lis afforded in the failure of
his lecture tour in this state, the last
of the series, booked for this city Fri
day, having been abandoned for lack
of substantial interest, due partly to
the bad weather. He was under con-
tract to give three lectures-one at
Norfolk, on at Newport News and one
at Richmond. with a guarantee from
the manager of the tour of $3.50 night.
The manager lost heavily on the audi
ences at Norfolk and Newport News,
and the Richmond lecture was can
.celled, owing to the discouraRing
weather conditions and the small adj
vance sale of seats"
That Rev. Sam Jones has lost none
of his popularity in this city was shown
at his last lecture here, not to mention
the audiences that heard him during
the revival services that he conducted
in the Park Extension. Should he con-
duct series of meetings here in the
fall as II has been suggested is pos
sible, there is no doubt that additional
proofs OF his popularity will be forth
coming.

WILL GET BIGGER SALARY.
County Attorneys Compensation In
creased 10 RI,5OO Per Annum.

BY a resolution of the board the sal
airy of the county attorney, Col. George
#. Cam; was increased from $1,000 to
$1,000 per annum. The resolution re-
cites the fact that the salary of the
county attorney was fixed at its pres
ent figure more than sixteen years ago
and that since that time the duties of
the office have greatly increased, in
10th numoer and Importance.
The duties of the Office were furtheri
extended to cover advice to the several
county officers, and their representa-
ton in legal matters connected with
the county's business. This action was
taken at the request of the Court
House officers themselves, which was
contained in petition signed by them
and read at the meeting of the board
A second innovation was determined
upon at the meeting. This was TO au-
thorize the clerk of the board to, draw
his warrant upon the county treasurer,
on the first day of each month, for the
salaries and per diems of those coun-
ty officers whose compensation is fixed
by law or by resolution of the board.
In the past these officers have received
their salaries only after the monthly
meeting of the board, which is held be-
tween the Sth and the 18th of each
month. The change will be a matter
OF considerable convenience to them, as
they will in the future receive their
salaries on the same day of each
month.
The report of operations on the
county farm demonstrated that it has
become a most admirable and profit
able investment for the county. Only
a few able-bodied men convicts are
employed in filling ii, most of the work
being done by the old and infirm men,
the women and boys, whose labor
otherwise could not be made profitable
and whose detention, were they not
employed in labor OF this character,
would be large expense to the
county.
The gross earnings of the farm, rep
resented by the value of it's products
for the year 1901, were $S.S26.02 and the
expenses for fertilizers and seeds
$427 50, having a net profit Of 81. 39S 90

WORK OF COUNTY FORCES.
Drainage and Road Work Done by
COnvicts During the Past Year.

COnvtcts During the Past Year.
The annual report of Mr.. w. f.
Chaplin. superintendent of public
works and roads. which was filed with
the county commissioners yesterday
shows the various employments of the
county forces during the past year and
discusses the number, health and gem
eral care of the misdemeanor convicts.
There were 265 convicts on the chain
during the year, making a total of 794.
OF this number 467 were discharged
upon the expiration of their terms, 80
escaped. one died, one was killed while
trying to escape, 20 were sent to the
infirmary and seven returned to Jail,
leaving a total in camp on Jan. 1, 1902,
of 265. This number includes 146 men,
IS boys, and A women.
The daily average of prisoners In
camp was 244.7, a decrease OF 80 from
the daily average for the year 1900
The percentage of sickness varied from
1.3 per cent. in February to S.5 per
cent. in August and September, the
monthly average of sickness being Al
per cent, a decrease of per cent.
from the average for the preceding
year.
The cost of guarding and feeding
was $S5.62 per capita, being an in
crease of SO cents per capita over the
average cost of guarding and feeding
for the past seven years. 1t is an in
crease of $14.23 per capita over the
cost of guarding and feeding for the
year 1900 Superintendent Chaplin
explains that this large increase was
due to the increased cost OF supplies
of all kinds.
During the year 90. $50 linear feet of
new canals and bitches were dug and
547. 900 linear feet of canals and bitches
slushed. THE most important drainage
work finished during the year is the
completion Of the Buckhalter system
all the laterals entering the main
Buckhalter canal having been COM
pleted. The outlet to Harmon canal
was dug, giving the waters of
that watershed quick and
easy outlet into Vernon river The
Wildham canal. which is now under
construction. will soon be completed. >"
The road work done was equally i'm
portant. By the county forces 80, 74O
linear feet of road were graded and
19,450 linear feet were paved.
During the year" says Supt Chan
lin In his report numerous small
bridges have been repaired and kept in
safe condition. and 1880 feet of ce-
ment gravel laid on the Louisville and
Waters road. completing the Louisville
road to ten and one-quarter miles from
Savannah and resurfacing the Waters
road from Wheaton street to near Dale
avenue. The road forces are at this
time on LaRoche avenue and Mont
gomery road. and the work is being
pushed as rapidly as existing conditions
will permit"

TO NAME THE SHIP
MISS MAY EGAN AND PARTY WILL
60 TO CHESTER.
THE NEW SAVANNAH LINER
WILL BE CHRIsTENED THIS WEEK
BY, MISS EGAN.

Party will Leave savannah Thurs
day Night for Chester, Where the
City of Memphis Is Being Buiit'
She Is to be Placed on the Savan-
nah Line AbOut May 1-Expected
That Demonstration Will he
Made Mt Savannah when the Ves-
s.IReaches Here-ThOse who Will
Probably Make Up the Christening
Party.
The CITY of Memphis will be christ
ened Saturday at Chester, Pa, should
there be no change in plans. The ves-
sci is being constructed by the Del
aware River Iron, Shipbuilding and
Engine Works for the Ocean Steamship
Company of Savannah, and is to be
finished and placed on the Savannah
Line about May /.
President and Mrs. John NJ. Egan,
their daughter Miss May Egan, Col.
and Mrs. A. r. Lawton, Mr.. and Mrs.
T. Mayhem Cunningham and Mr.. and
Mrs. Henry NJ. Steele will probably
comprise the party that will attend the
launching. Miss May Egan is to
christen the ship by breaking the GUS
tomary bottle of wine over the bow.
The party has not been definitely
formed as named, as Mr. and Mrs. Cum
ningham and Mr.. and Mrs. Steele have
not concluded positively that they will
be able to take the trip. Col. and
Mrs. Lawton are now in New York,
whence they will go to the launching.
The Savannah party will leave here
Thursday night over the Southern Rail-
way for Washington, whence connec-
ton is to be made for Chester 1t is
not thought there will be any consider
able demonstration over the launching
of the ship, and no visitors from Mem
phis are looked for.
Originally it was the intention to
make the christening quite an event.
Maj. J. r. Hanson, chairman of the
board of directors of the Central Rail-
way, thought it would be a pleasant
nah, New York and Memphis people to
attend the launching, but this plan
was abandoned, while it was still only
under considera ton. 1t was decided to
postpone the public demonstration un-
til the time of the arrival of the ship
at Savannah, after being turned over
to the company by her builders, and it
is now the purpose of the officials to in
vite a number of prominent people to
come here as the company's guests.
Memphis will doubtless be well rep
resented when this demonstration
takes place. The Tennessee city is in
close touch with Savannah, and New
York through Savannah, because of
the Central and it's Birmingham con-
nection, and such celebration as is
looked for will probably have much to
do with making the relations even
closer

In his profession, representing some
of the largest interests in this COM

spotless reputation.
I'm local politics, and as a legislator,
he always battled for the best inter-
est of the people he represented, and
took, as his conspicuous talents en-
titled him to take, a leading part in
shaping public policies and in guarding
the welfare of the state. If he fought
he did so vigorously, but only with
affectionate regard for the feelings of
others.
For fourteen years he was judge of
the Superior Court of this county, and

and grasped it with all his powers.
His oratory voiced lofty ideals. and
inculcated the duty to commemorate
the sacred memories of our South, and
held up to our youth high ambitions
and elevating and ennobling purposes
in life. He taught them to grasp vir>
tue with earnestness and to strive with
fidelity for the right.
. He was stricken down while in the
faithful performance of public duty
and his life gives us confidence that
he has laid aside the robes of office
but to be clothed in the garments of
Immortality.

just how much money had come into

been expended.
The receipts for the year were as
follows:
