ROBBED VACANT HOUSES;
ADMITS HIS GUILT.
Negro Lad Went Into six Places
and Got Lead Pipe.

and Got Lead Pipe.
Admitting that he has robbed six
vacant houses of lead pipe and other
fittings, julius Simmons, a 15-year-old
negro. is held a prisoner at the police
station house. He was arrested by De-
tcctive Frank Wall.
Simmons will be arraigned before
Recorder Myrick in Police Court this
morning and will admit his guilt on
six counts. Detective Wall states that
some of the vacant houses that he Wis
tied, after Simmons had been placed
under arrest, he found were not prop
erly locked. Doors were open, back
gates were open and keys were in
doors, making ii easy for thieves to
get on the inside.
The following places were visited by
Simmons and almost striped of their
piping Nos. 10O3-1005 Lincoln street,
H. H. baltimore, agent; No. SIS Hun
tingdon street, east, C. Mendel, agent;
Nos. 529-531 Huntingdon street, east,
j. J. Eagan, agent; No. 224 Hunting
don street, east. Rivers & Gibbes,
agents. Not all of those whose houses
were robbed knew it until after Sim
mons had been made a prisoner by
Detective Wall, and some of the pipe
had been recovered.

Col. G. Arthur Gordon, one of Geor-
gia's three representatives to the Ma
tional Guard Association Convention at
Columbus, o., returned to Savannah
yesterday. Col Gordons visit meant
much to the military and citizenry of
Savannah, and he succeeded in having
several important resolutions passed,
which, if adopted, will be of vast bene-
fit. Col. Gordon succeeded in placing
the Avondale range prominently before
the convention, and returned with as
surances of the probable participation
of several states in the coming inter
state shoot in Savannah, which have
not hitherto taken part.
Notably among these is the state of
Pennsylvania. There were twenty del
egates from that state at the conven-
tion, and many of them told Col. Cor
don that they expected Pennsylvania
to send a team to the contest. OF the
ten important resolutions passed by the
convention, three were introduced by
Col. Gordon, who obtained the unani-
nous consent for their introduction by
the courteous assistance of Gen. Goblin
of Pennsylvania, whose recent visit to
Savannah will be recalled.

the fine military record of the Georgia
state troops. This appreciation found
expression in the appointment of Col.

The resolutions passed by the con-
vention are of first Importance, several
of them having special reference to
