Many of Savnnnah's College Stu
dents Have Returned Home.
The return of many of Savannah's
college boys and girls for the short en-
ioyment of the Easter holidays, has
been a pleasant incident of the past
few days. and the streets now, morn
ing and afternoon, are gay with their
bright young faces. After the three
months of hard study since Christmas,
with its fortnight of gayety, to be at
home again seems obviously good to
them, and they spread a contagious
pleasure as they pass.
Whether there will be any entertain
ing in the younger set during Easter
tide has not been rumored, but as the
holiday is briefer than at Christmas,
and fewer come home to enjoy it par
ties are usually infrequent.

York will bring in the last contingent

ARE NO EXCUSES FOR
REJECTING SALVATION
Said Rev. S. n. G. Adams at DUFFY
street Baptist Church.

In his sermon at the Duffy Street
C. Adams took the ground that there
was no excuse which the reasonable
man could advance for rejecting the
salvation which was brought to hu-
mainly by Christ. The different eX-
cuses made were touched upon, ana
the fallacY of each from the Scrip
tural standpoint brought out.
The first excuse which Mr.. Adams
touched upon was that which claimed
there was so much mystery in reli-
gion that the human mind could not
grasp it. This he said was a fallacy as
the lack of knowledge to understand
a thing did not imply that the thing
itself was untrue. AS illustrations he
cited the mind of the child which could
not understand the full meaning of all
the theories and maxims of mathe-
mates, but his lack of understanding
did not invalidate the maXims or the
theorems.
The second excuse made, he said, was
that religion was so gloomy. This,
too, he characterized as a fallacy and
due entirely to a misunderstanding
Religion, he said. is gloomy only to
those who make it so. In truth 1T
should make a man brighter and bet
ter and happier. There should be no
cause for gloom in the knowledge that
one has been saved from eternal dam
nation.
The last excuse is that there are 50
many bad men in the church. That
there were bad men in the church the
speaker admitted, but scored vigorous
ly the logic which determined the
worth of a system by the character of
the men who advocated it. Besides
this, too, there were many good men
in the church and a careful summary
would show that the good men were
far inAthe majority. In addition there
are more bad men outside of the
church than there are within it's por-
tails.
The meetings are increasing in in
terest and larger congregations are in
attendance each night. Meetings will
be held as announced to-day and on
Sunday. Numbers are protesting con-
version each night.

In an interview with d. w.
McKercher, who has just returned
from the Pacific coast, we learn that
1t Is not sunshine In that country,
especially through Washington and
Oregon. He reports the lumber in
dustry there somewhat overdone, as
there has been more manufactured
than the market in that part Of the
world calls for, and the freight rates
are barrier to the eastern market.
The labor market also is somewhat
overdone, as wages are no better
there than here and living expenses
some what higher and rents very
much higher. He reports that many
laboring men there are coming east
to find work. In the six weeks that
he has just spent on the Pacific coast
there were but six bright sQnshiny
days, the weather in general being
cold, damp and disagreeable. There
Is but little signs OF spring yet between
Portland and st. Paul, the weather
being cold and windy through
Montana with blizzard and plenty OF
snow in North Dakota. Truly this
climate of Wisconsin has it's disadvan.
taEes. but it will compare quite
favorable the year round with any part
OF the United States.

Myron Compton formerly OF this city
received sentence at Stevens Point
Friday. The following is from the

Compton, convicted of taking indecent
sentence. In reply to the question of
the court he said he was not as guilty
as they say; that he had been in Jail
nearly year, which fact he asked the
court to take into consideration. He
was then sentenced to one and a half
years at hard labor in the state prison.
Compton was taken to Waupun by
Sheriff BOurn on the early train
Saturday.

LEFT FOR PARTS UNKNOWN
c. B. GriGgs and Wife, Lately
a -EnsaGed in Millinery and
Restaurant Business Suddenly
Leave.

G. B. Griggs and wife, who have
been engaged in the millinery and
restaurant business of late, silently
and suddenly left Grand Rapids at q
late hour Saturday night. Circum.
stances indicate that Dallas, Texas,
or Des Moines, Ia, may be their
destination. Mr.. Griggs' method OF
doing business and his conduct in
dispoSing of his restaurant and
settling with his numerous creditors
was not such as one would expect
from a business man of honor and
integrity. While there are several
merchants here who doubtless would
be glad to see Mr.. Griggs it is
extremely doubtful if he will ever
return to this city.
Mr.. Griggs sold his restaurant, The
Crystal Cafe to L. Horton, of Almond
who agreed to pay certain debts
amounting to about $3.50, which is
about equal to the debts unprovided
fer. Mrs. Griggs had stock OF
millinery goods which she valued al
$500 with q mortgage of S7OO on the
same. It is rumored that Mrs. Griggs
expects to return and sell her stock
Mr.. Horton, proprietor of The
Crystal Cafe is preparing.t to give this
city q first-class restaurant in every
respect.

THE SPEED OF STORKS.
Evidence That They Can Fly At
The Rate of 100 Miles an Hour.

No living thing, not even a scared
jack rabbit, can travel with the speed
displayed by such birds as the stork
and the northern bluethroat. Not only
do these birds fly with speed which
can hardly be conceived, but they keep
up their rapid flight for LOCO or 1000
miles at stretch without apparently
tiring.
Evidence has been collected recently
which shows that the bluethroat flies
from Central Africa to the shores of
the North sea, a distance Of 900 miles,
in less than a day and night, and
making it, moreover, in one uninter-
rupted flight.
The storKs. which spend their sum-
mers in Austria-Hungara and their
winters in India and central Africa,
are also marvellous travellers, and make
their journeys twice year in one
unbroken flight each time.
From Budapest, in Hungary, to
Lahore, in India, is about 2,4OO miles
in an air line, and the storks make
the journey in "a hours, thus travel
ing at the rate of 100 miles an hour
for the whole distance. The storks
which spend the summer in Central
Europe and the winter in Central
Africa travel with the same rapidity.
Slatin Pasha, an Austrian in the
service of the khedive, and now
governor of the Central African
province of Darfur, was for many
years captive in the hands CT the
Kahlifa when the dervishes killed
Gordon and established their empire,
now overthrown, in the Souden. One
day, at Omdurman. he saw a Stork
with a metal band attached to one of
its legs. He caught the bird and
found engraved upon the band the
name of an old friend in Austria.
He wrote note to bis friend and
tied it to the metal band. When the
stork returned to Austria for the
summer, the friend saw the
letter, caught the stork and read the
message, which was the first certain
assurance that the outside world
received that Slatin was still alive.
This stork, as was proved by the
dates, made the journey from
Omdurman to the Aurtrian country
place, a distance Of nearly 5000 miles,
at a speed OF more than 100 miles, an
! honr,
