METH0DISTS WILL GIVE
TO MEMORIAL HOSPITAL
Christmas Offerings In All Georgia
Churches for That Purpose.

Christmas Offerings In All Georgia
Churches for That Purpose.
The Methodists of Georgia will cele-
orate Christmas in all their churches
this year with offerings to the Yves
ley Memorial Hospital. which they are
establishing in Atlanta. This is the
only Methodist hospital in the South,
and 1t is proposed to make it of I'M
usual excellence and beauty.
AT the recent sessions of the Georgia
conferences it was resolved to make
Christmas Day, which comes on Sun
DAY this year, the occasion of gifts to
the hospital in all the Methodist
churches of the state. The movement
mas taken strong hold of the hearts
OF the people, and it is believed great
things will be done.
One man in Atlanta has offered to
give $l2,500 If the other Methodists of
the city will give as much. 1t is not
doubted that his proposal will be met,
and that Atlanta will thus head the
movement with $4,000. The rest of the
state 1t is hoped will do as much, and
II so, the total gifts of next SUNDAY
VIII reach $4,000. 1t is proposed in
the end to put as much as 500 900 into
the enterprise as its growth and needs
arise
Bishop Gambler, president of the
BOARD of trustees. has issued the fol-
lowing appeal to the Methodist preach
ers and people of Georgia.
Atlanta, Ga, Dec. 22.-My dear
brethren: Both the Georgia Conferences
nave ordered a collection made in ali
our churches next Sunday-Christma
Day-for the benefit of our Wesley
Memorial Hospital.
May exhort you, both preachers
and laymen, that the matter be not
forgotten? We have no more i'm
porrant and far-reaching interest in
hand just now than this enterprise. Let
us make it a great thing, worthy OF
the lllustrious name it bears and the
| great church it represents.
Let all cash and subscriptions be
forwarded to Mr.. w. L. Peel. treasur-
er, (president Maddox Rucker Banking
Company, Atlanta, Ga. It is i'm
portant that we know as soon as DOS
siole the results of the days coilec-
tons. that the trustees may know how
| 70 plan the work for the year. Let
Brother Peel hear from all by Wednes.
day, Dec. %.
w. A Gambler.
President Board of Trustees.
A large property has already beer
bought and the hospital, if the Sunday
collections will justify, will be put in
| operation within the next sixty DAYS
the work of arranging the buildine
| and equipping it with all needed an.
| paratus and furniture will begin Al
once as soon as the funds in hand are
sufficient.

POLICE READY
FOR THE RUSH
ENTIRE FORCE ON TO-DAY.
TWO DAY-RELIEFS WILL BE ON
STREETS MOST OF THE DAY.

All Three ReIiefs VIII BE On From
O'Clock Tonight Until L O'Clock
Tomorrow Observation-Disclosures
Circumstances VIII Prevent the
Holding of Police Court Tonight.
Yesterday Was Dull Day in Police
Circles
Ninety-seven uniformed patrolmen of
the city force will go on duty at Z
O'Clock tonight and remain on duty
until a. m, according to orders is
sued by Supt. Charles Garfunkel last
night and yesterday. when the reliefs
went out.
The second day relief will go on duty
to-day at 1 o'clock, instead of 2, and
will remain on until l a. m. The
night relief will go on at o'clock,
supplanting the two day reliefs.
AS the principal street for merry
makers is Broughton. forty-one uni
formed men. under Sergts. Woods and
Davis, will be on duty on this thor
oughfare. The Flying Squadron, :"
consisting of eight mounted men, I'M
der Sergt. Murphy, will be on duty in
Yamacraw. and the other sections of
the city. where there is likely to be
disturbances, will be patrolled by the
double number of men.
Plans Well Laid.
Supt. Garfunkel believes that with
this arrangement of the men all undue
hilarity and disorder will be kept down
and beyond the legitimate celebration
of the holiday, nothing unusual will
mark Christmas Eve.
The detective force will report at
police headquarters this morning, and
remain on duty until Monday, at least
two of them being at headquarters at
all hours. For the quick movements
of the detectives an automobile will be
kept in the sally port with a compe
tent chauffeur at hand to convey them
to any section of the city where any
serious ARRAYS take place.
No Court Tonight.
The original plan to hold Police
Court tonight, so as to relieve the
press of prisoners at the station house,
Has been abandoned, and all those ar
rested who are not able to give bond
will be held until Monday morning
This is made necessary by unforeseen
circumstances.
Renovations at the county Jail has
made 1T necessary to transfer a large
number of Jail prisoners to the city
prison, and last night nearly all of
the available room at the city prison
was taken up. Those who anticipate
drifting into a state of oblivion
through the excessive indulgence would
do we'll to make arrangements in ad-
vance for bond, or else be prepared
to spend day and night in crowded
prison.
Many InnOcents I'm Town.
The large number of provincial
visitors in town makes work for the
detectives, as they fall easy prey to
the band of human sharks that infest
every city. These characters are
working industriously and some inno-
cents have already fallen prey. Re-
ports of film fam games are received
frequently, and as a rule those pre-
ferring charges will not remain long
enough ito assist in locating and
prosecuting the offenders.
The superintendent of police has
made arrangements for extra teams
for patrol wagon duty, and If neces-
sary the ambulance will be pressed
into service.
Yesterday was an unusual quiet day
in police circles, and by many was
looked on as the calm before the
storm.
