IDENTITIES of George w Morgan, State Superin-
tendent OF Elections have examined the records
at the Board OF Elections and have verified the
enrolment Of many Republican election officers
in New-Yori County Democrats. In some
cases the Republican election officers on rec
ord as having voted at the last Democratic pri-
maries. The examination OF the records has
been made because of fear expressed by some
Of the Citizens Union leaders that there might
be frauds in the count of the vote i'm districts
where Tammany had obtained more than its
share Of election officers. There was a suspicion
that in some of the districts the Republican
leaders had connived with Tammany leaders to
recommend Democrats for appointment as Re
publican election officers.

CITY LIFE SCORED
DEPICTED IN SERMON BY REV. A.
NJ. WILLIAMS OF TRINITY CHURCH.
CALLED THE SCA8 A TRAITOR.
HIS VIEWS OF ORGANIZED LABOR
AND ITS PURPOSES.

Minister Stands by Organized Labor
and Says Scab Stands for the Ju-
das in Christianity-Many Advant-
ages of Life in "A City-Less Idle
ness Than in the Country, He Says.
Questions Truth of Assertion That
"GOd Made Country, and Man the
City'-GOOd md Bad Placed Side
by Side.
THE name scab stands for the trail
tor in trust, the Judas in Christianity
and the Tory in politics"
In this language Rev. A. NJ. Will
liams, in his sermon on THE Heavens
of City Life and How to Use Them, at
Trinity Methodist Church last night,
importuned organized labor to stand
together.
Rev. Mr.. Williams in his dis
cussion of the heavens of city

line commended unionism and it's
principles. He said that organized la

said. "While 1 condemn persecution

the name scab, because it would mean
that L was against my fellow man."
MIR. Williams depicted the many ad-
the statement that God made the
country and man made the city, is not
to be accepted as the truth. He spoke
of the heavenly Jerusalem and talked
of the beauties of this holy city. Mr..
Williams said that one of the heavenly
features of city life is its activity.
There is less idleness, he suggested, in
the city than in the country. He said
that heaven is never thought of as a
place of activity, but rather of abso-
Lutte rest. 1t was argued that this is
an erroneous impre ssion and that
activity is the law of Gods earth. He

The facilities for association in the
city were discussed. The ease of as
ISOLATION and the companionship of men
were commended as beauties of a heav-
emily city. Mr.. Williams said that be-
cause of this companionship he liked
the country better than the city. He
said he liked the country because every
body speaks to everybody else, and that
God wants more OF the brotherly grasps.
In culture and intellect and the higher
natures Mr.. Williams said the cities
have another element of the heavenly.
He stated. however. that Savannah is
backward in the matter of a popular
library, one of the needs If she is going
to have a heavenly city. He depicted
the laborers in the large cities going to
the rich literary feasts prepared for
them. 1.-THE richness and fulness of
church life belong to the city," said
Mr.. Williams.
There is the heaven and the hell In
the city," said Mr.. Williams. There is
the bad. and the good; the low, and the
high; gambling, and higher assocfa-
tions; the saloon and whisky club. and
the school and the lyceum; the brothel,
and the church. These are the things
that determine whether you live in
heaven or make your abode in hell.
This is the problem that is presented

OFFERS LITTLE HOPE
REV. DIR. MENDES HAS NO CHANCE

Mendes VIII Resume Connection
with Temple Services.
There is no hope that Rev. DR.. I. P.
Mendes, pastor of the Temple Mickva
Israel, will recover his eyesight That
is the opinion expressed by DIR. A. w.
Calhoun of Atlanta, the well-known
specialist. who was brought from At
lanta for the purpose of making an ex-
animation of DR.. Mendes.
After a careful examination of the
patient yesterday morning at II o'clock,
he gave as his opinion that there is
no chance for a complete return of
sight, though he thinks that with care
full treatment and the building up of
the system the little amount of sight
longed for some time. The physicians
inference is that ultimately even this
will be lost.
DR.. Calhouns opinion, though it will
bring grief to large circle, the friends
and admirers of DR.. Mendes. will not
come as a surprise, as from the nature
of the case and the opinions expressed
by local physicians from the beginning
of the trouble, little hope was possible
that the case would result other than
that DR.. Calhoun has predicted.
AS was stated in the Morning News
some time ago, the board of adjunta
of the Temple Mickva Israel is now
trying to secure a young pastor for
the congregation, and when this is done
and when DR.. Mendes' condition will
allow of his again taking part in the
services he will be made pastor emer-
titus.

Man from Tennessee Has Left to
Look at NorthcOt.
An officer from Tennessee left last
night for Savannah for the purpose
of Identifying the man arrested at
Monteith by Chief Sweeney and Deputy
McCaffery and believed to be William
Scruggs, wanted at Nashville for kill
ing a man named Brooks in 1898. The
prisoner says he is Jim Northcot of
Tennessee, and not Scruggs.
An effort is being made, by means
of habeas corpus proceedings, to secure
his release, and the matter will come
up before Judge Barrow at l o'clock
this afternoon in the Superior Court
Northcot will also have to appear as a
witness in criminal case in the City
Court this afternoon. Chief Sweeney
will endeavor to have Northcot held
until the Tennessee officer arrives,
probably tonight. The picture of
Northcot sent to Nashville has the Of
ficers at that place guessing, and while
some judge from the photograph that
he is the fugitive others have their
doubt. The man who is on his way to
Savannah knows Scruggs very we'll.

MOST POPULAR OFFICER

A handsome sword, donated by the
Henderson-Aimes Company to the
Hussars' bazaar has been offered to
the most popular officer in Savannah,
progress of the bazaar, which begins
Feb. 8, and lasts a week. The sword
is a costly one, and the officer who re-
ceives it should be proud of it, not
alone because of the popularity which
it attestS, but because of it's intrinsic
value. ~
The friends of Capt. Arthur B. M.
Gibbes will make an effort to have the
sword go to him, while the friends of
Lieut.. Joseph l. Killorin, lately elected
to the post of a commissioned officer
in the Emmett Rifles, will endeavor
to spare him the necessity of purchas-
ing a crowd. Others will probably be
entered in the contest, and it is expect
ed that it will be very warm.
The various committees of the ba-
zaar reported their progress at the
meeting Saturday. Indications point
to a most successful affair both from
standpoint of pleasure and finance.
Donations continue to come in, until
at present the various committees
have, in addition to more than 81, 500

amount even greater

ATTACKED THE WATCHMAN.
With Pitcher as Weapon Negro Did
Damage on HarbOr Dredge.

Armed with a pitcher and somewhat
under the influence of liquor, William
Henry Grant. colored, early yesterday
morning attacked the Waterman of one
of P. Sanford Ross dredges at the Ocean
Steamship Company's wharves. During
the fight the watchman's wife was bit
ten by Grant.
The Waterman is William Mack, col
ored, and was on the dredge with his
wife, when Grant, who is employed by
the dredging company showed up. The
prosecutor claims that the assault upon
himself and wife was without provoca-
ton. The prisoner lays the blame for
the trouble on whiskey that he con-
sumed and furnishes an excuse for
having imbibed.
He claims that while going across
the river to watch several scows he
fell overheard. To get his blood in cir
culation, he alleges that he went up
against the bottle, and then started for
the dredge, where Mack was watching,
for the purpose of getting some dry
clothes.
Grant is unable to tell just how the
row started. and does not remember
having used the pitcher. He will be
given an examination by Recorder My
rick in Police Court this morning.

RURAL FREE DELIVERY
INAUGURATED TO-DAY.

The rural free delivery routes that
will embrace in their radius most of
the settlements and villages to the east
and south of the city within a distance
of some ten miles, will be inaugurated
to-day. The line of these routes has
already been given in the Morning
News. AS the system will offer all
the facilities of postoffice at the door
of the residents of the suburbs it
should, and doubtless will, prove popu-
lar.
The carriers will start out from the
postoffice each morning, except Sun
day, at 1880 O'Clock. Until matters are
in good working shape, which probably
they will be in the course of two weeks
or so, no schedule can be arranged
The collection boxes, which will be
placed at convenient points along the
routes are expected daily and will be
put in position as soon as received.

THE YOUNG DREAMER.
Romantic Life of Joseph Was Sub
ject of Rev. DIR. schaener's Dis

course.
Rev. w. C. Schaeffer preached the
first of a series of sermons last night
at the Lutheran Church of the Assem-
sion to congregation which taxed the
seating capacity of the Sunday-school
room. Owing to the increased size of
the congregations, it may be that in
the near future the church itself will
have to be used for a place of evening,
as well as morning, service.
DR.. Schaeffer's subject was THE
Young Dreamer" The subject of his
discourse was Joseph. The speaker
said, in introducing his subject that
to his mind the Old Testament con-
tanned many stories of strong romance,
one of the strongest of which was the
story of Joseph, whom he character
lied as one of the noblest men of the
Bible. He spoke of the young mans
many dreams, of his service to Pha-
roah while in bondage, of his many
trials and troubles. of his Christian
forbearance and fortitude, and finally
of his reward i'll being made second
only to Pharaoh.
The lesson taught he said, was that
If we honor God, He will honor us
made Queen, he said, was to call the
court chaplain to her chamber where
she had the scripture head to her, and
prayed for the blessing and guidance
of God in the management of the af-
fairs of her kingdom. But, he added,
Gods people are not always so boun-
teously rewarded with worldly honors,
but look for their reward in the great
hereafter.
His people, said DR.. Schaeffer, have
something in this life which is greater
than prosperity of gold, or the ring
and chariot which were given Joseph
by Fharoah-character- which
stands out before God with his ever
lasting benediction and that which no
fire could burn or flood destroy. And
So, he said, Joseph had not only po-
sitiol and wealth, but faith in God
and beautiful and sublime charac-
ter. BE thou faithful unto DEAN,
and 1 will give thee crown of life, 4"
SAID he in closing.
