THROUGH IRON DOOR
BURGLAR CRAWLED,
demolished Cash Register in NJ. }.
DOyle's Place on St. Julian Street.

Demolished Cash Register in M, ,.
DOyle's Place on St. Julian Street.
Through hole in the iron door on
the Bryan street side. the place of M
j. Doyle was burglarized carly last
night. So far as Capt. Doyle could dis
cover nothing was taken from the
store.
With Ratchet that was secured in
the store the burglar broke the cash
register, but secured nothing for his
trouble. The money drawer was
empty and he went away without get
ting any currency. He managed, how
ever, to put the machine out of COM
mission in his anxiety to get at the in
side without ringing a bell
The fact that some one had entered
the place was discovered by some one
residing in the immediate vicinity and
the police We're notified. A hole had
been broken in the thin iron door and
the burglar crawled to the inside
through this opening. The officers who
made an investigation are certain that
the person who went on the inside was
a boy A thorough search of the three
floors of the building was made, but
the burglar was nowhere to be found
and Capt. Doyle was satisfied that he
made his escape before the discovery
was made.

CLIMAX OF SIN
CERTAIN TO COME.
Strong Sermon Preached by Rev.
Christian at Wesley.

Strong Sermon Preached by Rev.
Christian at Wesley.
Puritanism is held up 10 ridicule by
college presidents and teachers, and
public officials and newspapers, until
young people eschew religion alto
gether. A young man. can hardly re-
main in Sunday-schoof beyond sixteen
without meeting wholesale ridicule on
the streets Of modern city.
In his sermon on THE Climaxes of
Sin," to a large congregation at Yves
ley Monumental Church last night
Rev. H. c. Christian made these asser-
tions. He took as his text Matthew
1888: he sure your sin will find you
out is as true to-day as it was thons-
ands of years ago. said Mr.. Christian.
THE sin of Judas at last reached it's
climax and exposed him to his breth-
rem, and made his very name odious to
the whole world.
Il have no idea that Judas was a
traitor at heart all his life. The ac-
count of him would hardly justify such
conclusion. l do not suppose that
he was any worse by nature than the
ueClpleS. mat WHICH IndQc HIN
worse, and finally eliminated with this
dreadful catastrophe, was sin, and sin
which is found in some degree in mil
lions of hearts. The sin of Judas was
not the sudden unquenchable passion
for silver. 1t was a sin that had
grown upon him for years, and which
surprised him at last
so this dreadful thing we call sin
Will at last reach its climax in every
human SOUL We may think ourselves
exceptions, and that we can sin and
no evil will come, but at a time when
we least look for it the awful climax
will be reached. OF course, no man
In this congregation expects to commit
any great sin against God, or society,
or himself. If ! were to say it would
be your doom it would be unfeeling
and harsh, and yet this would but be
the history of thousands of men who
were walking exactly in your pathway
and walked in it for years, and then
reached the awful climax.
The thought may shock you, but
ten short years of evil practice can
change man into a demon, and make
men do what they never thought them
selves capable of doing. No man ex-
expected to be a drunkard, but they
drink, and go down until a true wife's
wedding ring goes for the accursed
stuff. Few men in the holy hour of
matrimony expect to be untrue to their
wives, but they hear the song of the
siren, and after months and years fall,
and home is ruined. Great social evils
which bring misery and death are not
the work of an hour, but the constant
downward tendency of moral tone I'M
til the climax of ruin is reached. A
nation of drunkards is not made in
day. 1t sometimes takes long years.
The business is licensed by the city and
state, and it's dastardly work goes on
until, when it is too late, a community
wakes to find its men, and women, too,
are drunkards."

MANY WILL MOVE
INTO NEW HOMES.
Furniture Vans VIII De Very Much
in Evidence This Week.

On Wednesday and Thursday the an
nual exodus of Savannahians from old
places of residence to new will take
place. For more than a month the
renting agents have been busy arrang-
ing for the many transfers that will be
made.
The oct. l movement of Savannah's
population is a feature of life in this
city. though in other cities similar
movements, of course, take place at a
fixed season of the year. In this city
leases are always fixed to terminate on
Sept. 30, and that day and the next
dissatisfied housewives make their
changes.
The demand for houses this season
has been good, particularly for those
the rents of which are not high. This
is true, despite the fact that building
operations during the past year have
been extraordinarily comprehensive tns
have largely increased the number of
houses and apartments offered to let
The real estate and renting agents all
agree that there was no very great
diminution in the demand for houses.
Apartments in almost every residen-
tial part of the city, at all desirable,
are snapped up almost as fast as they
are ready for occupancy and offered
the public. The people seem to have
a special fOndness for homes of this
character, which offer especial induce
ments to small families
THE want we have greatest difficult
ty in supplying" said one renting
agent, lis for houses renting from $15
to SIS per month. 1t has always been
the case in Savannah that this class of
4 f1r.aVn
is no change in the situation this year.
There are very few of them not al
ready leased for the approaching year"
1t is probable that the renting agents
have their full share of difficulties and
trials in dealing with prospective ten
ants.
Most persons believe said one of
the agents, that they are less des1r-
ably located than their friends, and
they are always ready to make
change al the end of the term of their
lease. They very infrequently stop to
consider that the location of their homes
is probably responsible for whatever
differences in rent may exist and that
they probably would not be willing to
live in a section in which some of their
friends reside. But it is very hard to
explain these differences and dIstlnc-
tions to them"
Another business in which active
preparations to handle the exodus are
now in progress is that of furniture
handling. 1t will be the busy season
for those engaged in this occupation,
and moving vans, that have seen but
little use for the past year, reinforced
by emergency supplies of wagons, are
now being brought to light and put in
shape for work.
In two days the streets of the city
will give the casual visitor the Inn
preston that a majority of the citys
population has been thrown out OF
house and home.

GOOD CROWDS AT ALL
THE RESORTS
Isle of Hope and Casino Visited BY
Large Numbers of Pleasure seelse

Isle of Hope and Casino Visited BY
Large Numbers of Pleasure seeIsa
ers.
The warm weather yesterday drove
many out to the Isle or Hope and the
Casino. The crowds that boarded thu
cars was perhaps the largest since the
exceedingly severe days in the laktef
part of August.
At the Isle of Hope Manager Bart|sa
had to get out his bathing suits to ao-
commodate those who wanted to Sc il.
swimming. The shoot the chute wa
iimbered up and put into play and
over 100 passengers enjoyed the exfffE,
arating ride down the incline. This is
the prettiest season of the year aroRMd
this popular resort, and cottagers BtISrs
are loath to leave the beautiful swr-
rcundings, and are anticipating s%verA
more weeks stay before the weather
becomes disagreeable. Host Barbee
says that he believes he has hit upon
the right idea in deciding to keep open
the year round, and he is highly de-
lighted with the patronage that he is
receiving.
The First Regiment Band regaled
hundreds of pleasure seekers at the
Casino. Thunderbolt will never lose
it's attractiveness, and Host Nelson's
endOavors to please his guests tire
highly appreciated by all who go there.

CONSUL CAN'T RELEASE
SHANGHAIED NEGROES.
Unless District Attorney Shows That
They Are Necessary witnesses.


They Are Necessary Witnesses.
A rather unusual situation has been
revealed in the case Of the eight Sa-
vannah negroes who were shanghaied
on the bark Alice and taken to Bristol,
England. They are now in the Gus
tody of the American consul, Mr. Grin
A. Lathrop. who is unable to release
them and send them home, since the
negroes, being impressed against their
will, cannot be considered sailors.
There seems to- be but one way TO
bring them back to this country, and
this way will be observed by the State
Department. The assistant district at
torney has telegraphed the State De-
partment that alls of the negroes are
witnesses necessary to the proper pre-
sentation of the governments case. I'm
der the rules of International law they
may now be returned.
Having this point in mind the dis
trict attorney, when he was in Savan-
nah had the case assigned for a hear
ing Oct. 20. The message of the State
Department has probably already
reached the American consul, and it
is likely that within a fortnight the
Savannah negroes will be on their ma
tive heath again.
Jack Johnson, the negro runner, who
was arrested at the same time as Har-
ry Olsen, charged with the KIDNAPPING
of the negroes, is still in Jail. He has
not yet been able to secure a bonds
man on the eight 5000 bonds required
in his case.

THE BLESSEDNESS
AND USE OF OLD AGE.
No Reason for Loneliness and De-
spafr Says Rev. G. A. Jackson.

No Reason for Loneliness and De-
spair Says Rev. c. A. jackson.
Rev. c. A Jackson, pastor of Grace
Methodist Church, yesterday delivered
a special sermon to the aged. A large
congregation was in attendance, and
most of the older members of the
church were present The pastor took
his text from Psalms, II. 17:1S.
Mr.. Jackson called attention to the
fact that the old often become lonely,
for they have watched their sons and
daughters leave them, and the old home
is no more. THE aged mother sees her
daughters married and a third party
comes between them' he said. THE
young folks leave and the home seems
deserted, and loneliness is prone to set
in, and oftentimes despair. Sometimes
the spirit cries out that even God has
forsaken them.
The old folks begin to grow aweary
of the world and to think upon the
world into which they are soon to en-
ter This is one of the uses of old
age. Each age is needed by every
other age, the young as well as the
old. They act and react upon one an
other. The old folks teach the lessons
of preparation for the world to come,
for entering their true homes If we
always remained young the world
might seem so beautiful that we would
never wish to leave it, never care to
fit ourselves for the higher and better
world. The whole life of the aged is a
lesson on preparation for heaven.
Then there is no cause for despair.
The elderly are always loved, and
though the sons and daughters go out
into the world and leave them for
time, yet they never forget them, and
when they are honored they reflect back
the honor upon their parents The
speaker then recited the incident of the
President, who, leading his mother up
to the Inauguration, told her and the
others that the honors which he was
receiving should have been given to
her.
when the poor, humble, almost help
less insect crawls out upon the limb
is it it's wish only to die?" said Mr..
Jackson. when the beautiful butter
fly energies from the old, worn and
dried she'll leaving it there upon the
limb, to the mercy of the elements, is
that death? No more is it death when
the immortal spirit energies from the
hull of the body and wings its way to
the better, purer land"

SWEET JASMINE DIED

After Learning of Recall OF

for UntimeIy Demise of senten-
tious Drama.
After aickering for less than fort
night the star of the theatrical venture,
sweet Jasmine" lost its heralded lus-
ter and went completely out at the
Savannah Theater Saturday night. The
author and leading lady of the pro-
duction, Miss Marie Montagu, left the
city six hours after the curtain fell
on the last act, and the members of
the cast were completely in the dark
yesterday as to her whereabouts.
Not that Miss Montagu was under
obligations to inform the troupe of
her plans for the future, for it was
not to her that they were looking for
their salaries, but the other members
of the cast were not at all pleased to
have her make so hasty departure
while they waited about the hotels to
get some word from their New York
manager, with whom there was some
difficulty in securing communication.
Miss Montagu left her maid, a pref
ty young French girl in possession of
nearly all of the information relative
to her plans and departure. and the
little maid had been instructed to keep
her own counsel. Even the business
manager of the company was not APP
prised of her intended going, and could
give no explanation of her having TAX
en- a southbound train for New York.

The report concerning the deaconess
work was also very good. More than
500 calls have been made, including
work of almost all natures, and many
have been benefited. The reports as a

In the afternoon the annual "Or-
phan's Day" was observed and a large
audience were in attendance at the
meeting. A programme had been ar
ranged consisting of the rendering of
appropriate selections by the children
and of responsive readings. The work
that is being carried on by the church
in this line is a most excellent one and
the results of the good accomplished
were clearly shown yesterday.
