an order for a set of harness. The
order was purported to have been
signed by Peter Kelly, for the firm of
Smith & Kelly. Gen. McGlashan
doubted that it was genuine and or
dered the negro not to leave the store
until an investigation could be made.
So as to prevent the departure of Will
lingham he drew his pocket knife and
had a telephone message sent to po-
lice headquarters.
With prison staring him in the face
the negro decided to take a desperate
chance and make a break for liberty.
Gen. McGlashan stuck his knife into
the thief's breast, but not with great
deal of force. AS Willingham dashed
through the door Gen. McG1ashan
gave him jab on the arm, but the
man refused to stop. He was chased
several blocks, but was finally lost
on the river front. Detective Murphy
had hurried from police headquarters,
but could find no trace of the fugitive.
He searched the wharves and was on
his way back down town when Will
bingham was located in the drug store
and made a prisoner. When arrested
the prisoner had in his possession a
Cleveland bicycle that Detective Muir
ply thinks was stolen. The wheel is
held at police headquarters for identi-
fication.

The Interstate Sugar Cane Growers
Convention, to be held in Macon May
6, and 8, is receiving the greatest
consideration all over the South, not
only by the farmers, the class most
directly interested in the crop, but by
all classes, for it is recognized that the
scientific manufacture of syrup on a
large scale means comparatively new
and very valuable crop for the South.
That this fact is realized is shown
by the active work for the success of
the convention that has been done by
the governors of the various states that
were asked to send delegates to Macon.
These gentlemen not only made the
required appointments, five delegates
for each county in the state, but in the
majority of cases deferred these APP
pointments until the men who it was
desired to have attend could be com
municated with and their consent TO
take part in the convention be secured.
Yesterday Capt. d. G.. Purse, who
planned the convention and who has
been working hard for its success for
many months past, received notice
from Gov D. c. Hayward of South
Carolina stating that he had appointed
the 200 delegates from his state and
enclosing a list of them. Il have just
finished making the appointments,
the Governor states, land it has taken
considerable time as / wished to get
men who are interested, and who 1
thought would attend the convention.
l feel sure that you will have a large
representation from my selection. L
sincerely trust that your convention
will be a great success and will be of
material benefit to the growers of cane

lenses. The negro was having his
wounds dressed in d drug store on
Bryan and West Broad streets when
placed in custody by the plain clothes
man.
Willingham was cut by Gen. Nc
Glashan after a scuffle and under
rather peculiar circumstances. The
con- mander of McLaws Camp of Con-
federate Veterans could have killed
the negro had he wished to, but only
used his knife in an effort to prevent
the thief getting away. Tuesday,
Willinghan, who was at one time en-
ployed by Smith & Kelly, on the
wharves, called at Gen. McGlashan's
place on Broughton street and stated
that he had been sent by Peter Kelly
for a set or harness. The goods were
delivered and Willingham was told to
tell Mr.. Kelly to send orders for goods
in the future.
The negro left the store with the
harness and sold it within a short
while for So. This fact was discovered
by the police after the negro's arrest

South Carolina and Mississippi Have Chosen
Delegates.

+ in this state and throughout the
South"
The Governor of Mississippi was all
so heard from yesterday and he stated
that he had completed thea list of dele
gates from his state and enclosed a
list of their names. From this state
375 delegates have been appointed.
Last night Capt. Purse left for Ma
con where, to-day, he will meet with
other members of the committee and
complete the programme for the three
days of the convention. From now on
the work for the convention will be
pushed forward so that everything will
be in readiness several days before the
FIRST session begins.
AS has been stated before the owners
of the Macon Academy of Music have
placed that building at the disposal
OF the convention for it's sessions and
Macon itself has agreed to print an
edition of 10000 copies of the complete
proceedings of the convention and dis
tribute them throughout the country
where they will best serve to attract
attention to cane growing and to the
South.
The convention will be educational
in every sense of the word and there
fore of vast benefit to the industry as
the speakers will discuss all phrases
of the business from the kind of soil
and of fertilizer to be used, to the
profitable marketing of the manufac-
. tured product. And these speakers will
be men most distinguished in agri-
cultural and chemical subjects es-
pecially as applied to sugar cane grow

few, are Hon. James Wilson, Secre-
tary Department of Agriculture; DIR.

REHEARSALS AT
THE THEATER.


Plays Given Next Week for Benefit
of OglethOrpe Monument Fund.
A full rehearsal of the cast and
chorus of The Sleeping Beauty and
the Beast" the opera burletta which
will be given on Wednesday of next
week for the benefit of the Daughters
of the American Revolution, was held
at the theater last night. The rehear-
sal was the fullest and most satisfac-
tory vet held.
The box office will not be opened for
the sale of seats until next Tuesday
morning, and it is probable that by
that time nearly every seat in the
house will be sold. Every box has
been engaged, and the ladies say that
they could easily have disposed of
twice the number
The proceeds of the entertainment
will be devoted by the Daughters to
the Oglethorpe Monument fund, after
the expenses of the performance have
been paid. The necessary outlay for
the bronze tablet which the Daughters
placed upon the Greene monument to
commemorate the refinement of his
remains left the exchequer of the or
der in a rather depleted condition, and
it is for the purpose of raising funds
to be available for the patriotic work
of the organization that the benefit is
being given.
The operetta will be the society event
of next week. Many of the partici-
pants are among the most we'll known
people in town. The costumes are gor-
geous, the music pretty, the dances al
Turing and the scenic effects elabor-
ate. The presentation of the play will
recall the productions of Mid Summer
Nights Dream" the spectator being
led so completely into fairyland as to
unwittingly forget his surroundings.

PAINTING OF POPE LEO XIII.
The Reproduction of an ApparitiOn
Seen by the Young Artist.

The Reproduction of an ApparitiOn
Seen by the Young Artist.
The painting of his holiness, Pope
Leo XIII, which is on exhibition in
Van Keuren & Co.'S window, has been
much admired. The likeness is the
work of Mr.. Valentine Molina, a well
known young Savannah artist, whose
work has been the subject of COM
mendation by able critics.
The painting is the property of Rev.
Father Aloysius, who bought it from
Mr.. Molina for the purpose of exhibit
ing it at the Sacred Heart Church fair,
which begins next Tuesday. 1t will
be disposed of at this fair.
Father Aloysius, and others who have
seen the Pope, say that it is the best
of the many paintings which they have
seen of his holiness. 1t has been great
ly admired by the Catholic clergy and
by visitors. The painting, which is al
most life-size, represents the Pope sit
ting in a heavy carved chair, arrayed
in a robe of white. In striking con-
tract to the wilderness of his face and
apparel is the crimson background. His
face is sepulcheric and yet kindly and
sanity.
Mr.. Molina used no model in painting
the picture. His conception of the
Pope was gained entirely from descrip-
tions furnished him by those who had
seen him, and from a dream which he
had Just before undertaking the work.
He told one of the priests of the ap-
partition he had had, whereupon the
father advised him to set to work at
once upon the painting before the i'm
age depicted in his dreams should take
fight. The face portrayed in the pic
ture of the young artist is the same
as was seen in the vision.
