THEIR BODIES SENT AWAY.
Victims of Railroad Collision Sent
to Their Families.

The remains of the two negroes who
died at the Georgia Infirmary yester-
day morning from injuries received
when a Seaboard Air Line train collided
with a lumber car Tuesday evening,
were sent to South Carolina yesterday
for burial.
Both men were employed by the rail-
road company, and were natives of
South Carolina. The body of William
Davenport, aged q years, was sent to
Leesville, and that of Walter later,
aged 80 years, was sent to Govan. 1t
was known from the first that Daven-
port had been fatally injured, but it
was believed that later would recover
There was only one bruise on his per-
son, and he must have been injured
internally.
Sam Matherson. the third man who
was injured is still at his home at No
400 Charlton street, west, but DR.. Heri-
OF believes that he will recover. Math-
erson, however, was badly mashed and
is not out of all danger. The three
negroes We're standing together. on the
pilot step of the Seaboard locomotive
when the collision occurred. The fact
that the men died in the infirmary
while under the care of physicians,
made the holding of an inquest unnec-
essary. Coroner Keller was not even
called upon to view the bodies, and
they were turned over to Fox & Weeks
to be prepared for burial.

mt Close of Tonight.
The annual meeting of the Savannah
Music Club for the election of officers
for the ensuing year will take place at
the Lawton Memorial tonight, at the
conclusion of the programme of music
The present officers are Mr.. T. Lloyd
owens, president; Mr.. Adolf Sundheim-
er. vice president; Miss Florence Cold
ing, secretary; Mrs j. ]. Gaudry.
treasurer; Mrs. n. H. Finnie, Mr.. j.
T. German. and Mr.. w. H. Teasdale,
curators. These seven officers consti-
tute the board of managers, and trans
act all the business of the club. II is
rumored that an opposition ticket may
be placed in nomination at this meet
ing. Only active members may partic-
ipate in this election. and there are at
present 100 of these in the club.
In addition to the election of officers.
the reports of the secretary and the
treasurer for the past year will be
read, and other matters of business VIII
come up. Season membership tickets
will also be distributed by the treas
urer. These tickets are for the artist
concerts of the club, the first of which
will be given a week from tomorrow
night, when the celebrated baritone,
Campanari, will appear.
Members of the club have to pay
nothing for these tickets, which give
admission to all of the artist concerts
which wifi be given during this season,
but before these tickets can be secured
from the treasurer, associate members
will be required to pay their dues for
the ensuing year in full, and active
members will be required to pay their
dues for November. In the case of
recently elected members, the initia-
ton fee will also have to be paid.
The club has grown so large that
there is some talk of limiting the mem
bership. This question will probably
come before the meeting tonight, also.
On account of the business to be trans
acted, only a short programme will be
given, which will be as follows:

Col. Lester Not Surprised at Result
in New York State-Was Prepared
for the Worst, Though He Hoped
for the Best-surprised at Defeat
of Ex-GOv. Boies i'm Iowa.
The returns from the congressional
election in the First District. outside
of Chatham county, are very meager.
This is because those in charge in
the country precincts recognized that
there was no necessity of sending re-
turns to Savannah in an election in
which there was no opposition.
Col. Lester himself has not been APP
prised of the vote in these precincts,
though altering reports indicate that
the vote in the rural precincts was
very light at Guyton eighty votes
were polled. This number is in ex-
cess of the number cast in the state
and county election, when forty-five
votes were. polled.
200 Votes in Bryan.
It is estimated that 200 votes were
cast in Efhngham county, out of a reg
istration of 1900. In Bryan county
about 200 votes were cast. At Ways
16 ballots were deposited. Further
than this no fascination has been re-
ceived. The returns were sent imme-
diately to the cCNnty seat and for
warded direct to the Secretary of
State
1t will be seen that the vote in the
country was very light, compared with
the vote in savannah The farmers
are at this season harvesting their
crops, and there being no opposition.
few were willing to lose the time
which, in the country, it takes to go
to the polls.
Col. Lester Gratihed.
Col. Lester was very much gratified
by the vote polled in Savannah, and
was surprised to know that it was
larger than the vote cast in the state
and county election. He was not sur
prised at the defeat of Coler in New
York. He said that while he had
hopes for the best, he was prepared
for the worst.
He was surprised to see that Bots,
who was running for Congress from
the Third district. in Iowa, was de-
feated by Judge Birdsall, the Republi-
can candidate to succeed Speaker d.
B. Henderson. This was due to the
sweeping vote of the Republicans
throughout the state, Gov. Bots run
ming substantially with his ticket.

FORMER SLAVE THE VICTIM.
CIOe Hunter, Aged 90 Years, Lost
Her Life in Casey Canal.

CIoe Hunter, Aged 90 Years, Lost
Her Life I'm Casey Canal.
The body Of the aged woman found
in the Casey Canal, near Winters
Brewery, Tuesday afternoon was iden-
tilted yesterday morning as Cloe Hun
ter, aged SO years. who wandered from
her sons home Monday morning.
The remains were Identified by Bris-
tow Hunter, her son, and other rela-
tives of the dead woman. The woman
was an ex-slave and was born and
reared on Wilmington Island. She
was rather infirm and had been ac-
customed to wander around unaccom-
panied. Invariably when her son was
i'm trouble with the police, and such
has been the case more than once. she
would wend her way to police head
quarters to learn if he had been killed
in his last fight with the officers.
The old woman had relatives buried
near the Casey Canal and is thought
to have been going TO their graves
when she slipped and fell into the
water one less infirm would not have
been drowned, although il is not GER
tain that drowning was the cause of
her death. Coroner Keller believes
that the woman was drowned, but it
is possible that she was stricken with
apoplexy and was dead when she fell
into the water She had been in poor
health and her mind was weak. The
body was turned over to her son and
the interment took place in the early
afternoon in East Savannah.
