HALLE TO FOLLOW
SENATOR FROM MAINE, LIKE AL
DRiCH, NOW READY TO
LEAVE THE SENATE.

Augusta, Me, April 19.-Positive an
nolncement Of the early retirement Of
Eugene Hale from the United States
Senator was made here today.
The news comes in the shape of a
confidential telegram from Washing
ton 1t is inferred that Senator Hale
decided to withdraw from the race for
re- election rather than tender his res
ignation. In that event he will con-
tinue to serve until the 4th of March,
1911.
The announcement of the prospect
i've retirement of Senator Hale from
the Senate. following so closely the
announcement regarding Senator Aid
rich. seemed to have stunning ef-
feet upon the Senate.
That the oldest Senator in point of
service should voluntarily decide to
retire from that body was scarcely a
less surprise TIM that the recognized
leader should have decided upon a
similar step.
BY the retirement of Hale the Sen
ate loses the chairman of the Repub-
lican caucus and its titular leader
Hale entered the Senate March a.
1881, eleven days in advance Of his
I colleague, Senator Frye, who comes
next on the list in point of service.

ATLANTA SHERIFF
HAS new METHOD
HE HAS PLAN OF HIS OWN TO
GET TRUTH OUT OF THE
CRIMINALS.

Atlanta, April 19.-Sheriff Wheeler
Mangum, of Fulton county, has meth
DDS OF his own to tell when a prison
er Is really guilty or not, methods
which are nothing like those pursued
by the courts and juries, but which
have more than once gone straight to
the truth when learned counsels have
failed to elucidate it. Mr.. Mangum is
Confederate veteran, a deacon in
the church, a Georgia Cracker" and
proud of it. He is wise in the philoS-
ophy of the SOIL and has an intuitive
insight into human nature.
Here is the curious method by which
he has come to the conclusion that
Rogers Merritt, a negro under conyic-
tion and sentence of death for ciminal
assault, is not really guilty.
After he had been convicted, says
Mr.. Mangum, Il went to him in a
kindly way, where he was seated by
himself in the CELL and said to him :;
Rogers, what did you do it for?"
He looked me square in the eyes,
continued Mr. Mangum, and said,
Boss, | didn't do it. | am as inno-
cent as little baby
And while he was saying it. de
clared the sheriff portentioIsly, he
didn't take his eyes off my eyes,
Sheriff Mangum doesn't believe a
guilty man could have kept from
shifting his eyes for a moment and
contracting his throat. 1t isn't su-
perstition, but just his way of read
ing human nature.
Strangest of all, it is whispered at
the court house, that Solicitor General
c. D. Hill and Judge L. S. Roam, both
have their secret doubts, expressed
as to the negros innOncense and that
though he is under sentence of death,
he will never hang.

PASSOVER FEAST
BEGINS SATURDAY
JEWISH FESTIVAL WILL CON
TiNuE FOR A WEEk-sERvic.
Es TO BE HELD HERE.

The Jewish festival of Besach or
Passover Will begin Saturday evening
at sunset and extend over a period OF
seven days, concluding the following
Saturday night. The Passover Is en-
joined first in the thirteenth chapter
of Exodus, verses 3-S and repeated
elsewhere i'll the Pentateuch.
Historically, therefore. it is com
memorative Cf the deliverance from
Egypt, emphasizing Gods providence
in freeing Israel from Egyptian bond
age and sparing the first born of Is
rael as the angel of death invaded the
homes of the Egyptians. The main
feature of the observance of the holi
day is the eating of "matzoh" or un-
leavened bread, and the abstention
from all food that has leaven in it.
The Biblical reason given for this
is the description of the fact that the
Hebrews left Egypt in such haste that
the bundled the unbaked dcIgh on
their shoulders. and it was baked by
the heat of the sun, and in commem
Oration thereof all are enjOined to eat
the unleavened bread as a reminder
perpetually, of the haste of the de-
parture from Egypt.
Annually, on the Passover eve there
is held in the Jewish household a
beautiful service. reciting the wonders
of the exodus and Israel's subsequent
history. The head of the family con
ducts the service. assisted by all the
meml erS of the household On a dish
before them lie the symbols of the
feast, the roasted lamb bone. roasted

THE ATTENDANCE
WILL Be LARGE
HUNDREDS OF KNIGHTS OF
PYTHiAS TO ATTEND LOCAL
CONVENTION
Advance Reports Indicate That the
Attendance viii Probably be the
Largest in the History Of the Or
ganixation.

Anvance reports from every section
of Georgia, indicate that the approch-
ing annual convention of the Granu
Lodge, Knights of Pythias, to be held
III Brunswick on May 1S and 10. will
he one Of the largest in the history
'of the organization, and the local
lodges are new busy making prepara-
tlons for the entertainment of the
hundreds Of visitors 1t is impossible
at this time to state the number that
will be here, but it is a conservative
estimate to place the number at one
thousand at least.
Besides the regularly named dele
gates from every lodge in the state.
there will be several companies of
unifrom rank in the city Atlanta
will send three companies, two will
come from Savannah, while Augusta,
Macon and other cities will send a
company. The prize drill is expected
to be one of the most interesting ever
held by the military branch of the or
ganization. From advance reports, it
appears that the companies most like
ly to capture the first prize will be one
from Savannah, the Augusta company
and one Of the Atlanta commands
These three companies are among the
best drilled uniform ranks in the
south, and the drill that they will put
up will be both exciting and interest
ing.
The local committee, which is in
charge of the convention and which is
composed of members from both lodg-
es, are now busy at work making pre-
liminary arrangements for the bic
meeting. AS has been previously stat
ed in these columns. no outside finan
cial aid has been solicited by the To-
cal Knights, all the necessary funds
with which to entertain the visitors
having been subscribed by members
of the two organizations.
This will be the first time that
Brunswick has entertained the Grand
Lodge, Knights of Pythias in over ten
years and efforts to make it one OF
the most successful meetings ever held
