meeting of all the subscribers to the
bonds for the factory. We want every

many matters of Importance to receive
the attention of the meeting, not the

TO Visit Philadelphia.
"A committee from the subscribers
will probably be sent to inspect a fac

The Mayor said that the number of
applications for positions in the fac
tory was much greater yesterday than

seventy-five women and girls of Sa-
vannah have sought employment. Their
names have been taken, and they, as
| the first applicants, will be given the
first places. Many more will be need
ed, however, and if they apply at once
at the City Exchange, women and girls

| been received.
Applications for Work
Several made applications by address
| ing notes to Mr.. Thomas Gamble, Jr.,
| the secretary, not desiring to apply in
| person. This had the same result, and
their names were placed in the register.
Any more such applications will re-
ceive attention. 1t is thought likely
that there will be many more, as those
who live in the surrounding country
and desire work in the factory will
| adopt this means of securing it. In to-
days Morning News, too, there appears
a form of advertisement, which has but
to be clipped out and filled in with the
| name and address to make it form
an application for work.
