oped rapidly, and last night. increasing
in its intensity. moved inland, in
northeasterly direction. Vessels were
warned not to leave port until the
storm had spent its force.
For Savannah, high winds and rain
are forecast. What velocity the wind
Will attain it is difficult to say, but at
Tybee yesterday it reached a speed of
fifty miles an hour. The weather man
says that the Indications are that some
very high winds wifi be felt here dur
ing the day. Whether these winds
will assume dangerous proportions he
was unable to say, but the fact that
vessels have been warned not to leave
port, indicates that some apprehension
is felt.
BY tonight all danger win have
passed. If the storm does not vary its
course. Savannah will be south of its
center. The heavy rain yesterday was
the result of the storm in the Gulf
At Port Eads. on the Gulf coast, three
inches of rain fell in ~ minutes. while
at Mobile and New Orleans the rain
fan was heavy.
The storm started in the Gulf of

safe to say, but the first indications

when it began to develop rapidly south
of Louisiana. Last night the storm
center was over Mobile, where the
maximum velocity of the wind was AZ

were felt all along the Florida coast,
though in the extreme southern part
Of the peninsular they were not as pro-
hounced as were those farther North
High winds were anticipated all
along the coast, and storm signals were
ordered out along the Gulf and West
Florida coast. Later storm warnings
were ordered out by the Weather Blu

was increasing in it's intensity. East

PART FOR THE GALATIANS.
They May Be Given an Important
Place Mt the Greene Burial

They May Be Given an Important
Place Mt the Greene Burial.
A meeting of the committees from
the patriotic societies charged with the
burial of the remains of Gen. Nathan
ael Greene will be held this afternoon
at 4:3O o'clock at the residence o. Gen.
w. w. Gordon on Oglethorpe avenue
The meeting is called by Mr.. w. G.
Charlton as chairman.
Arrangements for the funeral cere-
mony will be considered. 1t is also
probable that plans will be discussed
for raising additional funds for the en-
tertainment of invited guests and for
meeting the other expenses that will
be incidental to a ceremony of such
Importance. The city's appropriation Of
$500 is not regarded as sufficient.
1t is the purpose of the committees
to invite the military to bear a part
in the ceremony. 1t is said, too, that
the Chatham Artillery Wil1ebe asked to
play leading part. This is but nat
ural, as the battery participated in the
ceremony that marked the funeral of
Gen. Greene in 1856. 1t is regarded as
fitting that it should be prominent in
this second funeral ceremony

Jews Are Observing Their Day of
Atonemenf

To-day being the feast Of Yom Kip
pur, or the Jewish Day of Atonement.
all Jewish establishments in the city
will be closed until $50 o'clock. and
the day will be observed in the syna-
gogues. The observance of the day
began at $50 O'Clock yesterday after
noon, at which time services were held
in the Temple Mickva Israel.
Despite the inclement weather a
large congregation was present to hear
Rev. DR.. Mendes. The subject of his
discourse was, Whats the Use of Re-
iigion?" The sermon was an able one,
showing careful preparation and deep
thought.
This morning at the Temple, morn
ing service will be begun at 10 o'clock,
lasting until noon. Immediately after
the morning service, at L o'clock, the
midday service will take place. A beau
THU service, almost entirely in Eng
bsh, has been arranged for this occa-
sion, and it is expected that a large
congregation will be present.
At O'Clock. the afternoon service
will begin, and will last until AIS, at
which latter time the memorial serv-
gregation viii be expected to be in
their seats promptly at the hour ap-
pointed for the beginning of the serv-
ice. as the doors of the temple will be
closed promptly at AIS o'clock. They
will remain closed during the progress
of the memorial services.
II is the custom among the Jews,
both the orthodox and reform elements,
to commemorate the departure of the
dead belonging to their congregation
by fitting services on the Day of
Atonement. At this time prayers are
offered, and like services rendered for
all who have died during the year past.
This service, too, is especially beauti-
full, and, like the midday service, is
almost entirely in English.
The day will be observed in the syn
agogues by fitting services, though the
most elaborate programme will be at
the Temple Mickva Israel

RACING MEN INTERESTED.
Country Is Talking of the Harness
Meet of Next Month.

Meet of Next Month.
The harness meet that will be given
under the auspices of the Savannah
Racing Association at the fair grounds
track next month is attracting favora-
BILE attention an over the country. It
is looked upon az promising to create
a demand for fail racing in the South
that will have to be supplied every
year
The Horse World. one Of the leading
racing papers in the country. which is
published at Buffalo. N. Y, gives the
following account of the meet:
'Horsemen who have horses in form
to go on racing after the seasons close
in the North, and especially those who
race their way along into the South
during the last of the season, win be
interested to learn that a flrst-class
meeting for trotters and PAGERS will be
held at Savannah, Ga, commencing
Nov. 10 and lasting six days. Dur
ing the meeting $1,000 will be given in
purses, so that it is easy to see that
an opportunity will be offered to add
greatly to the earning capacity Of such
horses as are given a chance to race
during the meeting.
"Horsemen have often wondered why
some of the large Southern cities did
not attempt to get the harness per-
formers after the close of the season
in the North, and now that the Savan-
nah people are ready to put up. the
money to secure them, the response
should be instant.
The Savannah meeting, we are in
formed, will be conducted in the most
approved manner. and it is expected to
make harness racing so popular in
Savannah as to admit of a meeting
each year"
General Manager Hull is in receipt
of requests for information and stable
room almost every day, and some of
the fleetest nags in the country will
show their abilities here next month

Beneficiaries Allowed to Intervene
by Judge Barrow.
The beneficiaries under policy of in
surance in the defunct mutual insur-
ance company, The Anvil. were per-
mitted to intervene in the litigation
now pending against it and its officers,
by an order granted by Judge Barrow,
in the Superior Court yesterday.
The intervenorS are Inez, Myra and
G. w. Field, minor children Of the late
Charles w. Field. of Columbus. Their
father held a policy of insurance for
1000 in The Anvil, and though he died
in good standing and the requirements
made in the policy have all been met,
the amount of the policy has never
been paid. On this showing the plain
tiffs were allowed to intervene.
The Anvil is now in the hands of a
receiver, where it was thrown by Judge

benefciaries under some of its other
policies who had never been able to

The Planters Hotel, which was

sales of last Tuesday, becomes the

There are several stores on Bryan

What the Ogden Movement Means.

In a graphic account of the edu-
cational conference held at Athens,
Georgia, last month, John S. Co
hen, staff correspondent of the At
lanta Journal, says:
Reduced to its last analysis, this
Southern Educational conference,
the coming of Mr.. Ogden and his
party, simply means that in the
future the money expended in the
south from outside sources for the
education of whites and blacks
will not be expended by generous
but misguided philanthropists, but
by practical and thoughtful men
in the manner devised by southern
minds and through agencies guild
ed by southern hands.
Nothing could be manlier or finer
than the attitude of these northern
men of means here today.
. AS one of them expressed it:
you have shown us that the south
is trying heroically to deal not OH
ly with the negro, but with great
unprivileged masses of its white
population. You understand your
own people and your own prob
lens as We do not. This work is,
yours. Take it and do
it. In so far as we can help you,
we are at your service. We have
no desire to meddle or interfere. If
you will take the helm we will
stand by you, not as northerners,
but rs fellow citizens of a common
a nobler spirit could not be
breathed into language, and none
need doubt that this correctly char
acterizes the aims and motives of
all these men. 1t is neither chari-
ty nor pity that they offer, but fra
ternity and patriotism. and much
mistake the temper of the people
of the sOHth if they do not accept
it as such.
In proof that these are not sim
ply fine words these men of mind
and means have put their work
largely in the hands of southern
men-nOt impractical, idle dream
FRS, but those noble spirits who um-
aided have been battling for the
education of the poorer classes of
the south these many years, with
means and oltentine>, sad
to say, small appreciation.

A Complex Question.

The Democratic state executive
committee is receiving cousidcra-
ble adverse criticism for assuming
the power to dicta'c how the poIit-
ical affairs in the different counties
should bc conducted. In many
countieS there is Il disposition to
follow out the instructions of the
state committee, but in several in
stances the county committees have
announced that the primary will
he open To all who will agree tn
support the Democratic nominees.
both state and county.
We feel that the state committee
assumed rather too much of that
power which leads toward ccntraIi-
zation in deciding that none but,
those who had voted the entire
Democratic ticket, state. county
and national, would be allowed to
participate in the coming primary.
The matter of open primaries in
some counties and close primaries
IN others will have decided ten
dencv t" create political complied
tons throughout the state. In cv-
cry instance where the open prim-
airy Is permitted there will be an
invitation lor Il contest To be- car
rlcd before the state committees
and the result can he readily fore
seen, as the committee could hard
ly he expected to decide against it,
own decisions. Taken altogether
the question is a very serious one
for Democrats to consider, and un-
less all parties interested can hr r.
cOnGiled by some favorable solution
of the affair it will very likely re-
dound to the disparagement of the
primary plan of making nomina-
tiOnS.
The Florida star., 1902-05-23

A few years ago the country was
shocked when it learned that con-
gress, with the Republican party in
power, had appropriated 81, 900, :
600 for various purposes during one
term. The Billion Dollar congress
became a reproach and a by-word.
1t begins to look now, however, aS
if the present congress would dis
count that record by appropriating
sl,0OO,OO0,0OO during a single ses-
sion, and yet nobody is bold enough
to predict that the high water mark
of Republican extravaganza has
been reached.
