FREE TREATMENT OF THE POOR.
TeIfair Hospital to Establish an Out Patient De
partment for Women and Children.

For some time the Board of Managers
Of the Telfair Hospital have been con-
templating an addition to their work
in order to give to the poor of sa-
vannah the full benefits of the NUM-
ficent bequest left to them by Miss
Mary Telfair.
During last summer a new three
story wing was added and now plans
are on foot to establish a free out
patient department for the treatment
of women and children. That such a
charity should be favorably received by
the poor of Savannah seems certain.
Many women and children who cannot
afford to pay for doctors services are
at liberty to get such treatment as
can only be given in a hospital with
out being Obliged to remain in the
hospital.
Facilities for taking care of women
and children in the hospital itself are
unsurpassed in any city and those too

partment are taken in the hospital free

CHRISTMAS IN
THE KINDERGARTENS.
Christmas Celebration viii BE Held |
at Trinity Wednesday Morning.

Christmas Celebration viii BE Held
at Trinity Wednesday Morning.
The Christmas spirit, with the joy of
giving and delightful air of secrecy
has pervaded the free kindergartens for
the past few weeks.
The results of the work of the little
Santa Claus will be shown Wednesday
morning at $3.50 o'clock, when the an
nual Christmas celebration of the Kate
Baldwin Free Kindergarten Associa-
ton will be held at Trinity Kindergar-
ten at Barnard and President streets.
Following the usual custom. there
VIII be one large tree and the $50 chill
dren. from the five free kindergartens
in the city, will assemble to enjoy it.
The tree will be decorated with electric
lights, and the presents that the little
ones have been so busily engaged in
making the last two weeks, together
with the gaily colored tarletan candy
bags and the toys for the children, will
make an attractive picture.
The work done by the children is typ
ical of the manual work done in our
kindergartens; there are calendars,
spool holders. and book shelves made
OF wood, pin trays, whisk broom hold
ers, and fancy boxes constructed of
card board, decorated with Christmas
berries and ribbon.
Here, too, the busy hands have work.
ed out simple baskets of raffia.
The exercises with the children will
be short and will include several good
morning songs, together with one or
two Christmas songs and friends hear
ing the happy voices sing
Merry Christmas now is here,
The happiest time of all the year,
Every face with smiles is bright,
Every heart with joy is light.

toys for each child, and the celebration
will close with the presentation of
these gifts. There will be dolls for

ercises and enjoy the tree with the

PHOTOS OF ROGUES
MORE ATTENTION WILL BE PAID
TO CRIMINAL IDENTIFICATION.
POLICE TO TAKE PICTURES.
COMPLETE SYSTEM OF RECORDING
AND INDEXING Is PLANNED.

Superinte ndent of Police VIII Els
tnbIish a Photograph Gallery for
Criminals at Police Headquarters
and Detectives Will Take Pictures
ThemseIVes-EachP Picture VIII he
Numbered and Index VIII lie Kept.
Record VIII BE Kept of Escapes,
Deaths, PardOns and Discharges.
Probably the most important improve
ment to be made at police headquar-
ters during the coming year will be the
establishment of a criminal photograph
gallery
1t is intended by the superintendent
of police to not only have the detec-
tives learn how to photograph crooks,
but how to develop the plates after the
pictures have been taken.
A dark room will be established on
the second floor of the new building on
Habersham street, adjoining the "iden-
tification room" In this way the room
in which the apparatus used in the Ber-
tillion system of measuring, prisoners
will be adjoining the one in which the
criminals will be photographed.
1t is proposed to have the plain
clothes men do all the work, and in
this way the city will be saved great
deal of money. The pictures can be
taken by the officers themselves at a
nominal cost.
10 Join National Bureau.
Next month the Savannah Police De-
partment will become a member of the
National: Bureau of Identification, and
the Bertillion system of criminal iden-
LITIGATION, by measurement, will be re-
vived in the Savannah department.
The apparatus used in measuring
under this system is now in place in
the identification ROOM" in the new
building, and nothing OF this sort will
have to be purchased.
A photographers outfit, complete in
every way, will be purchased imme-
| diately after the holidays, and an ac-
curate system of keeping up and in
dexing the rogue's gallery will be
| started.
The gallery at headquarters has been
maintained in a dilatory fashion and
there has been no system in the past.
| 1t is intended to number each picture,
and to keep up an index and record
| book. In this way the officers will be
| able to keep tab" on criminals and
in time to come the gallery and records
will be invaluable to the police. 1t
| has been the custom here when crimi-
nails have been photograph to sim
ply place their pictures in the gal
lery.
VIII Number Pictures.
1t is the intention of Supt. Garfulkel
to have each picture numbered and
! an index maintained. The result of
| the trials of the men photographed will
be recorded, along with the time that
| their sentences begin and when they
should regain their freedom.
The crooks will even be followed to
the penitentiary or chaingang, and in
| the event of death, escape or pardon,
the fact will be noted on the record
| book.
| In this manner the police will be
able to Keep up with the whereabouts
of the local crooks and will know
just who is at large and who is do
ing time"

legal holidays. There will always be a
nurse in attendance and everything will
be done to give patients the best serv-
ice.
In order to help defray the large
expenditures for medicine and dress
ings, small fee of 10 cents will be
charged every patient who applies.
This will include medicines and dress
ings on the first visit. Subsequent
visits may be made indefinitely, with
out charge, except when another pre-
scription is given, when 10 cents will
again be asked. Dr. T. P. Warning,
superintendent of the hospital, will be
in charge of the Impatient depart
ment, and act as consultant. He will
have as his assistant DR.. l.. w. War
field and Drs. Craig and Barrow, one
or more of whom will always be in the
dispensary during the published hours.
The attempt to give the poor of Sa-
vannah such advantages as are given
to the poor in other cities is a step
in the right direction. Savannah is to
be congratulated on having such a
thoroughly well-equipped, modern hos
pital as the Telfair, and such a pro-
gressive board of managers. The sue
cess of the enterprise rests entirely
with the public. Whether or not it will
be quick to take advantage of the OPP
portunities offered remains to be seen.

GRAND MASTER
DINED AT THUNDERB0LT.

Pleased with Showing Made by New
Branches of Odd Fellowship in
Savannah.
Hon. John A. Hynds, grand mas
ter of Georgia Odd Fellows, was the
guest yesterday of the noble grands
of the Savannah lodges, and of the
two Rebekah Lodges. Shortly after II
o'clock a brake party called at the
De Soto and escorted Mr.. Hynds about
the city. There were twenty-four in
the party.
After visiting the most interesting
places in the city the party was driv-
en- to Thunderbolt, where a fish din
ner was served in the Casino. The
dinner was entirely informal and good
fellowship and fraternity reigned SUI
preme. The return trip to Savannah
was not begun until nearly o'clock.
Immediately after reaching Savan-
nah, Mr.. Hynds became the guest of
the grand secretary, Mr.. j. S. Ty-
son, spending the remainder of the
afternoon and the night at his resi-
dence. Matters of Importance to the
Grand Lodge and to the fraternity
generally were discussed, and many
new plans OF work were outlined. MT.
Hynds will leave sometime to-day or
early tomorrow for his home in At
lanta.
The grand master is particularly
pleased with the excellent showing
made by the two new organizations
of Odd Fellowship in Savannah,
Deborah Rebekah Lodge, No. 10, and
Forest City Canton, No. 1. The
Deborah Lodge was out in full at the
Joint meeting on Friday night and
the opening ode was played by a
member of the lodge, Mrs. Harris.
The lodge has only been recently or
ganized and the showing made Friday
night was one which would have done
credit to an organization of much
longer existence.
The Forest City Canton also made
an excellent showing. Though it was
their first public appearance yet they
carried out their part of the pro-
gramme, without a hitch. The grand
master publicly expressed the hope
that this branch of Odd Fellowship
would become as strong and as pop
ular in Savannah as it had in other
parts of the country.

Judge Barrow Has Signed Order for
the Removal of Two.
Judge Barrow has signed an order
for the removal of Primus Bassett and
Isaac Mann from the county Jail to
hospitals where they can be treated.
Both of them are negro lunatics,
and were so violent that they were
taken to the jail, but on recommen-
dalton of the county physician they
will be taken back to the hospitals,
as it is believed that their insanity
is caused by the diseases which have
hold on them.
Bassett will be taken to the Charity
Hospital, where it may be necessary
to perform an operation on one of his
feet, which is sloughing away. Bassett
was violent subject and had to be
sent to jill for safe keeping.
The opinion of physicians was
that Mann's insanity was partly due
to his emaciated condition which was
the result of malaria.
