ISH-AMERlCANS TO HAVE
A HANDSOME HOME.

The work of renovating and repaint-
ing Irish-American Hall and the ad-
joining rooms. which the Irish-Ameri-
can Friendly Society will use for a
home, has begun. The hall and rooms
will be renovated and reprinted
throughout. AS soon as that has been
finished the rooms will be handsomely
furnished and all the equipments of a
social club put in. The rooms will be
carpeted and comfortably furnished, it
being the purpose of the society to
make permanent home of which the
members will be proud.
The younger members of the society
VIII give ball in the near future for
the benefit of the equipment fund. Ar

one of the successes of the season.
1t has been fully decided by the board
of governors that another oyster roast
will be given in the near future. 1t
will probably be on the Sunday after
st. Patricks day. The last roast was
such decided success, and so thor

ent, that the society as a whole, has
been anxious for another one ever since.

PHILIP M. RUSSELL'S WILL.
Burial Directions Were IncOmpatt-
BILE With Jewish Rites.

The will of the late Judge Philip NJ.
Russell was opened in the ordinary's
office yesterday in the presence of his
widow and several relatives 1t had
been reported that the will would con-
tain sensational features, but these
did not develop on the reading of the
will.
The entire estate is left to his wife,
Mrs. Eliza P. Russell, and she is made
eXecutrix. The will was executed
April Il, $780, In a codicil to the in
strument, executed seven years later
the testator explains that no provision
is made for his children because of the
fact that he provided literally for them
IN life, which statement, he adds, the
deeds of record will substantiate
My son, Warning Russell, Jr., now
living, l give the sum of five dollars
$5l to be paid out of my estate"
The greater part of the will consists
in directions as to his burial. 81 desire
and direct that my body be buried in
Laurel Grove Cemetery in my family
burial ground and in the spot as I
have designated, being at the side of
my deceased wife. 1t is my wish and
desire that the Jewish burial service
be performed over my remains at the
grave, but should objections be raised
by reason of my being inferred in other
ground than that set apart for the
Jewish believers, then in that case it is
my wish that the services be perform
ed as set forth at my residence. And
| further direct that brick wall be
built similar to the one that my de-
ceased wife's remains were placed in.
The same shall be a double one if there
is sufficient space, so in the event Of
the death of my present wife she may
be placed at the side of my grave"
These instructions are interesting in
light of the fact that because they
were incompatible with the Jewish
burial rites, Rev. I. P. Mendes de-
clined to perform the service. BY the
religion of the Jews, certain ground is
consecrated for burial purposes, and
those of the faith are inferred only in
such ground.

EIuded Omcer After He Had Been
Surrendered by His BOndsmnn.
Berry L. Bunton's store at Monteith
was closed by the officers yesterday
morning under attachments issued by
his creditors. The residents of Mon
teith and his several creditors are in
the dark as to Bunton's whereabouts.
While in the custody of a deputy
sheriff, Bunton, under pretense of get
ting something from his room, which
adjoined the store, took a sneak, and
has not been heard of since. His es-
cape was not known by the officer I'M
til fully five minutes after he had gone.
A search for him was at once insti-
tuted, but he was nowhere to be found.
Bunton was arrested last May for
selling liquor without a license under
a warrant sworn out by William u
mer, rival grocer and blacksmith at
Monteith. He was taken to Jail, but
was released under bond, on which w.
T. Belford went security. A few days
ago Belford grew FESTIVE, and because
of certain things which came under his
observation, was unwilling to longer re-
main on Bunton's bond.
Accordingly he notified the sheriff
lildA he dGSIFeu To SURRENDER the DTln-
cipal, and Bunton was turned over to
a deputy sheriff. Bedford offered to ac-
company the sheriff to the JAN with
the prisoner, saying that in the event
Of any trouble he could help him. The
deputy felt, however, that he could
manage his man and declined the Of
fered assistance.
Then it was that Bunton requested
the officer to take him to Monteith
where he said he could obtain new
bond. The two men went to Monteith
Under pretense of getting something
from an adjoining room, Bunton sue
ceeded in getting out of the sight of
the officer. He is still out of his sight,
and the only information obtainable
about him is that he is in South Caro-
lima.
As soon as his creditors learned that
he had skipped attachments were
sworn out. Before Justice Van Winkler
yesterday morning Solomon Sheftall
had warrant issued for the recovery
of $SS. At the same time 1. w. Kellar
had distrain warrant for rent issued,
and H. d. Bunton. a clerk in the store,
had issued a laborers' lien for $4S. which
he claims is due him for services.
There are numerous other creditors
who will probably file claims. Bunton
always maintained that he was ready
to go to trial on the charge, saying that
While he had obtained no license to sell
liquors. he dispensed it in his club,
The Monteith Bicycle Club" That or
ganization, however. under recent en-
actment, becomes liable for the tax.

ACcAN3 O4AONCO the CluD 10 De IN an eX-
cellent condition, both numerically
and financially, the organization being
stronger now than ever before in it's
history.
The question of establishing a club
house also came up for discussion. The
club decided some time ago to purchase
suitable houses and grounds for club
purposes somewhere near the city, on
salt water. A committee was appoint
ed to solicit subscriptions and select a
suitable place. A place was not found,
and nothing definite in that direction
was accomplished. 1t was the desire of
the majority that the country project
be abandoned and desirable site in the
city be secured. 1t is now the opinion
of most of the members that a city
home would be more useful and serve
the purposes Of the organization bet
ter. Capt Henry Blum, who was pres
ent, made the club an offer of a site,
gratis, for a club house on the Middl.
Ground road, a short distance beyond
the city limits. The offer was received
with appreciation. A committee will
visit the property, and report to the
society. 1t is thought probable that a
more convenient location will be
sought.
During the meeting Mr.. Pratt CT
Newark, N. j., a guest of the club, in
response to an invitation from the
chair, addressed the meeting on the So
cial benefits of a similar organization
at his home, to which he belonged.
Short encouraging addresses were also
made by many prominent members, as
follows: Capt. Henry Blum, Col. Henry
e. Dreeson, Col. John Schwarz Mr.. H.
Z. Brichman and Mr.. John E.
SchwarZ.

With street Railway system.
Following his appointment as super
intendent of transportation of the Sa-

at once to fami1iarize himself with the
system and his duties.
Mr.. Oakley fills the vacancy caused

time MIR. Oakley will begin his duties.
The new superintendent went over the

The announcement that nitroglycer-
Inc was used yesterday to increase the
heart action of Mr.. John r. Young was
denied with emphasis by his friends
last night.
1t was said at Mrs. Thomas resi-
dence that while there had been no
great change for the better, Mr..
Young's condition is no more alarming
than it has been. In fact, he rested
much more comfortably yesterday than
he did the day before, and in no wise
was his condition worse. Mr.. Young's
family and friends realize that he is
critically i'll, but his mind appears to
be clearer now than a few days ago.
Although the chances seem to be
against his recovery, his friends have
by no means given up hope.

GUARDIANS FIGHTING
FOR INSURANCE MONEY
Two Sets of Children Wage Inter-
esTiRE Legal War.


battle royal of legal aspect was
waged in the Superior Court yesterday
between two sets of the minor children
of the late George Meyer. The point
involved is a neat one, and the out
come of the case is awaited with in
terest, both on account of the princi-
pal of law involved. and because of a
recent fight in the Court of Ordinary
for the possession of the two older chill
dren, in which the same parties litigat-
ed.
The dispute Is over an insurance poll
icy for $1,000 on the life of the father
of the children. In this policy the in
sured directs that the insurance be
paid to his wife. if living at the time
of his death; otherwise to his chill
dren. His wife died, and he subse-
quently remarked. There were two
children as the result of the marriage.
When he died, a dispute arose OF the
guardianship of the two older children,
as result of which they were award
ed to Mrs. ]. H. Helmken over the
claim of their step-mother, Mrs. George
Meyer Mrs Helmken and Mrs. Meyer,
as guardians of the two sets of chill
dren, are now fighting in the courts
for the insurance money, Mrs. Helm
ken laying claim to all of it, and Mrs.
Meyer maintaining. that her wards
should share equally with their half
sisters.
The question before the court is Are
the children of the first wife entitled
to the whole amount, or do the chill
dren of the second marriage share
equally with them? The legal aspect
of the case not considered, the question
is a close one. But with the many le-
gal citations and able arguments of
counsel the question assumes even
knottier proportions.
The argument of counsel, which was
not concluded last night, will be re-
stunned this afternoon. Mrs. Helmken
is represented by Osborne & Lawrence,
while the interests of Mrs Meyers
wards is looked out for by Adams 6,
Adams and r. r. Richards.

for the Battle Exercises.
Tomorrow night several of the mil
itary commands will hold their weekly
drills, which were postponed on ac-
count of the Oglethorpe Minstrel and
Vaudeville Show Monday night. The
companies of the First Infantry will
hold an extended oroer drill IN the Park
Extension, and the Georgia Hussars
will also practice the extended order.
In preparation for the battle exercises
next month.
In number of the commands formal
elections of officers will be held next
Monday. Several of the companies
have already held their elections, in
nearly every case the same officers be-
ing elected. Between now and Feb. g
at which time all commissions expire
all of the commands. as we'll as the
members of field and staff, will have to
elect officers. and on that date these
informal elections will be ratified.
The Chatham Artillery will elect new
ofncerS also. A vacancy will take
place, owing to the retirement from SER
vice of their present captain, G., p
Walker, and this will have to be filed
A committee has been appointed by the
company to make nominations, and
there is little doubt but that the men
nominated by this committee will be
elected. The committee is not vet
ready to report and it is probable that
their nominations will not be made
known until the time for the informal
election.
The officers are spending much of
their time preparing for the examina
ton which will be given them, before
their nomination is confirmed. Orders
were issued yesterday by the several
adjutants, outlining the course of study
and the subjects in which the candi-
dates would be required to be versed.
These orders are being mailed to all
of the officers in the city.
