NO LONGER DANGER OF
STORM COMING HERE,

Temperature Fell on During Early
Morning Hours.
All danger of the storm in the north
eastern section of the Gulf of Mexico
coming to Savannah has passed.
The storm signals, which were hoist
ed at 10 O'Clock Saturday night, were
ordered down at 10 o'clock yesterday
morning. A high pressure area which
covered the entire northeastern part
of the country forced the storm east
ward.
During the early morning hours the
storm, though much of it's intensity
had been lost, struck the West Florida
coast. 1t moved rapidly across the pen
insula and passed out to sea. Though
all danger of the storm as far as the
land is concerned has passed, ships
sailing in the direction of the East
Florida coast are warned to proceed
with caution.
During Saturday night and early
| Sunday morning there was gradual
falling off in temperature in Savan-
nah, accompanied by a fairly strong
breeze. At o'clock Saturday after
o'clock at night it had dropped to
| 70 degrees A gradual falling off con-
tinued until 6 o'clock in the morning,
when the minimum was reached, 81 de-
grees.
After that hour it began gradually
warming up and at O'Clock in the
! afternoon the highest point for Sun
day was reached, mercury at that hour
standing at 81 degrees. Then a falling
off began again, and at s o'clock it
had dropped down to 70 degrees, the
same point as recorded on Saturday
night at that hour. This made the
average temperature u degrees, a de-
| ficiency of degrees.
At o'clock in the afternoon a stiff
east wind began blowing. This con-
tinued to increase rapidly in strength
until 6:45, at which time 1t was bowl
| ing along at the rate of twenty-five
miles an hour. After that it began
falling away in strength. At s o'clock
it had dropped off to nine miles an
hour and shifted from east to north
east. BY 10 o'clock it had almost en-
tirely died away.

TOOK IN AN ORPHAN
AND WAS ROBBED
II. e. White Played Good Samaritan
and Is Loser.

Taking in a little negro girl who
said she had no relatives and no home,
H. E. White, a negro who has a place
OF business on Reynolds street, was
robbed of every cent he had in his
house. White does not know the exact
amount stolen from him, but is salts
fed that it was SIS or more.
The girl, who bears the euphonious
name of Queen Anne Victoria Singleton
turned up at Whites place Saturday
morning. She was apparently not more
than u years of age. There was a
woman with her, who explained what
a sad condition the child was in, hav-
ing no relatives.
White consented to have the child
stay, If she would help his wife in
her work This arrangement seemed
satisfactory, and the child stayed Sat-
urday and most of yesterday She dis
appeared yesterday afternoon, and it
was soon afterwards discovered that all
of Whites money had also gone. The
matter was reported to the police.

SPECIAL SUBJECTS
WILL BE DISCUSSED
At Annual Meeting of the Georgia
Bar Association.

At the annual meeting of the Geor-
gia Bar Association to be held at Warm
Springs, on June 80 and July l and
2, two special subjects will be dis
cussed. These are the establishing
of Court of Appeals, and the Tor
rens System of Registering Land Tit
les. Both matters are of great i'm
portance and after discussion, definite
action will probably be taken.
The establishment of a Court of APP
peals has been deemed necessary by
many members of the Georgia Bar AS
ISOLATION. The object of the new
court, if it is established, is to relieve
the Supreme Court of much of the
work which now burdens it at each ses-
sion. The Torrens System is now be-
ing investigated by a special COM
mittee from the Legislature, and the
Bar Association. Hon. Washington
Dessau is chairman of the Joint Com
mittee.
Announcement is made that Senator
j. w. Bailey of Texas will be unable
to deliver the annual address before
the association, owing to the fact that
he has been called to the bedside of
his son, now under treatment in New
| York. The illness of Senator Bailey's
son may keep him from attending the
National Democratic Convention. The
two principal addresses will be made
by President P. w. Meldrim of this
city and Judge j. H. Lumpkin of At
lanta.
A special sleeper has been arranged
for the benefit of those who will at
| tend the meeting of the association
from this city. The sleeper will be
| attached to the regular train leaving
on the night of June 20, and will ar
rive in Warm Springs on the morning
of June 30. in time for breakfast. The
| fare for the round trip will be one
| fare plus 25 cents. The attendance
at the meeting promises to be the
largest In the history of the ASSOCIATE

was opposed to Harmon, Harmon
should not be nominated But Mr.
Hill was obstinate about it. He said
that Harmon was the strongest man

BACK OF IT WHAT 2

Dressed Woman Who
Had a Secret.
(By the Associated Press }

ST Louis, July 11.-The dead body
of a fashionably dressed woman was
found in room of the Hotel Milton
today where she registered July Z, as
Mrs. NJ Smith, of New York. Two
empty bottles were found by the side
of the bed. One had contained some
drug that has not yet been identified
and the other alcohol.
From statements made by Rev. Al
len X. Smith, rector of ChriSts Church
Cathedral in whom the woman is said
to have confided to some extent her
name is Mrs. Dantes, of either New
York or Washington.
Upon a promise Of secrecy, the wo-
man told the Rev. Mr.. Smith that her
mothers name is Mrs. Martha Wig
gins and that she lives at Ill Is
Street, Northwest, Washington, d. G.
When pressed by Mr.. Smith for her
reasons for using an assumed name,
Mrs Smith or Mrs. Dantes refused to
give anyl remarking that she had per-
sonal reasons for not wishing to be
known by her correct name.
