Glass Day Exercises at the Theater
Tuesday, June "a.

The graduating exercises of st. Vim
cents Academy will be held at theater
on the evening of Tuesday, June "a, at
$50 O'Clock. A programme of special
beauty and attractiveness, filed with
musical numbers. has been arranged.
The graduating class of this year
ccnsists.as stated in the Morning News
yesterday, of but two members, Miss
Stella Hohenstein and Miss Marie Yer
derry, several of their classmates, who
began the year with them, having
dropped out for one reason or another
during the term
The programme of the graduating ex-
ercises will be made as brief as posi-
BILE, to the end that the large number
of friends of the institution and it's
pupils who desire to express their in
terest in its welfare by their attend
ance on this occasion may be saved the
discomfort incident to a. long stay on
hot summer night
Besides the class papers and the vo-
cal and instrumental music here will
be a series of Delsarte exercises. For
several years these have been made
features of the graduating programme
and have always added much to its
beauty. Those that are being arrang-
ed for this year will not suffer in COM
parison with those of the years that
are past. The orchestra will be directed
by Mr.. John Wiegand.
Bishop Kelley has consented. in ac-
cordance with his usual custom, to de-
liver the diplomas to the graduates and
the prizes and other special honors to
those by whom they have been won.
He will probably make in addition a
brief address.
The final examinations of the acad-
envy have now been in progress for
about a week and possibly a. week
longer will be required for their COM
pletion. In the competition for the
Cafferty prize for excellence in Chris
tan doctrine, Miss Mary Verdery and
Miss Margaret Barnett tied and they
draw for the medal on the evening of
the graduating exercises. The dicton-
airy awarded each year for the best
examination in written spelling, always
an exhaustive test of the Students ex-
cellence in this regard. was won by
Miss Stella Hohenstein. one of the
graduates. Miss Hohenstein's paper
was one of the best ever written at the
academy on such an examination, beng
without an error throughout
The prize for excellence in Christian
doctrine in the Senior r class was won
by Miss Regina Burke and that for the
best examina ton in written spelling in
the same class, by Miss Claire Open
heimer.
The academy is concluding a most
successful year-one that has been
crowned with much evident improve
ment on the part of the pupils and
with great qualification to the earnest
corps of instructors of the Sisters of
Mercy.

FOR WEST INDIAN TRADE.
Address in It's Interest Issued by
Gen. Gordon and Others.


Gen. Gordon and Others.
Efforts will be made to hold another
West Indian Trade Convention. One
was held at Charleston, May 1917, and
Gen. w. w. Gordon, Mr.. John M. Egan
and others, as a committee from the
Savannah Cotton Exchange, attended.
The attendance, however, was not
large on that occasion. though those
present considered that great advan-
tage would follow from general partic
ipation in the meeting by the CONNER
cial bodies of the large cities of the
South and Southwest
committee, consisting of Mr.. John
H. Averill of Charleston, Gen. Gordon
and Maj George w. Fishback, COM
missioner of Porto Rico, was appointed
to prepare an address to the CONNER
cial bodies, setting forth the advan-
tages to accrue from the establishment
of trade relations with Porto Rico and
asking an expression of opinion from
them and their corporation Such a
statement has been prepared by the
committee and is now being circulated.
1T gives extracts from the address
made before the convention by Gen
Gordon and the address, in toto. that
able answers are received, it is prob
able that another convention will be
held.
Gen. Gordon said yesterday that the
project is an important one, and that
it demands the consideration of COM
mercial bodies. A South Atlantic port,
such as Savannah, he said, should
take the matter up. and a steamship
line between this port and Porto Rico
should be established. There is $27,
100000 of that islands business to be
had, and there is no reason, he de-
clared. why Savannah should not have
it's share.
1.-THE time has come" said Gen. Cor
don, for Savannah to look out for
its future. With the naval stores and
lumber trade in prospective deteriora-
ton, it is necessary that something
should be done to keep up the city's
commercial supremacy. Unless this is
done, while there is no danger of re-
PROGRESSION, there is certainly no hope
of it's advancement"

WANTS THEIR NAME CHANGED.
Petition Inv diving Interesting Facts
Before Judge Barrow.

A petition for a change in the name
of four children, involving interesting
question of fact, was filed yesterday
in the Superior Court. The petitioner
is Hannah Victor who seeks to have
changed from Haskell to Victor the
matrimonial venture.
There are three girls, and one boy,
their ages ranging from seven to
twelve years. Their mother says she
wishes them to bear the name she now
bears, instead of that of their father,
from whom she has been divorced. She
children's support, and that the chill
dren themselves would much prefer the
name of Victor to that of Haskell
An interesting fact in connection
with the case was brought out in the
Morning News some time since. The
mother had been calling the children
Victor anyhow and their names were
thus entered on the rolls of the pub
lie school which they were attending
The father heard of the matter, and
by the threat of legal proceedings,
which he was about to undertake. sue
oeeded in having his own name used
to designate his children, rather than
that of his successor in the role of
the former Mrs. Haskell and present
Mrs. Nictor's husband.
Judge Barrow directs in his order
that a copy of the petition be served
upon the children's father, and that
process issue directing him to appear
at the December term of the court and
show cause why the petition should
not be granted

WON'T DISCUSS PRESIDENCY.
Mai. Hanson Declined to Talk About
o. 8. $. Co. Succession.

W. - % w. SuCCeHSiOus
Maj j. F. Hanson, chairman of the
board of the Central Railway and
president of the Ocean Steamship
Company, reached Savannah yesterday
morning, and during the day was busy
with the affairs of the railway and
the steamship company. He will re-
main in Savannah to-day probably
leaving tonight.
Maj. Hanson was seen by a repre-
sentative of the Morning News, who
asked him about the well-grounded re-
port that his election to the presidency
of the steamship company was not in
tended to stand permanently but that
he would soon be succeeded by some
well known steamship man.
II will not discuss the matter" said
Maj. Hanson. and his reply was re-
peated when he was asked if he would
retain the presidency until the next an
nual meeting.
Some speculation has been INDUCED
in as to whether Maj. Hanson's dual
duties would demand that he spend
more of his time in Savannah He was
asked if this would be the case but
he replied that he thought his division
of his time among Macon and Savan-
nah and other points he has to visit
upon business of the companies would
remain about the same as it has been.
Maj. Hanson added his denial to that
of Traffic Manager w. H. Peasants of
the Seaboard Air Line that the latter
would be made president of the Ocean
Steamship Company.

FOR THE NATIONAL BANK.
Negotiations Are on for Sale of Lot
at Bull and Bryan Streets.


mt Bull and Bryan Streets.
The National Bank of Savannah is
negotiating with Mr.. George w. Owens
for the purchase of the Owens prop
erty at the northeast corner of Bull
and Bryan streets. The bank, it Is
said, wants the site for the erection
of a modern bank and office building.
and it will be secured if mutually sat
isfactory terms can be agreed upon.
The location is an excellent one.
President Herman Myers of the Ma
tional Bank has desired a site a block
or two further south. as he expects the
tide of business to continues it's move
ment southwark. Such a choice how
ever, would be based upon the needs
of the future. for it is held that Just
at this point of Savannahs commercial
and business development the business
center is located near Bull and Bryan
streets.
Another location that the bank has
had under consideration is the Gilmer
property ait the northwest corner of
Bull and State streets. There has been
difficulty about terms encountered
however. and it would seem that there
is not much chance of the purchase be-
ing made.
1t has been reported that the Ma
tional Bank was after the Johnson
property at the northwest corner of
Bull and Broughton streets. This,
however, was denied by President My
ers. Anyone of the three sites named
would be admirable for a modern bank
and office building. but the chances
now seem to be in favor of the selec-
ton of that at Bull and Bryan streets.
The lot is 80 feet on Bull and so on
Bryan, which affords ample space for
the building. The present improvements
are not valuable, and the chief cost
to the bank, if it buys. will be the lot.
