Georgia perform their duty.
The brilliant work of the winners in
the various events of the meet was note
worthy. Monday the Tiedeman. trophy
and Savannah Challenge races were held,
at the conclusion of which the Wander
bilt cup race was carded. In a most con-
sistent race three EMF 1907 cars fin
ished one, two, three, with Frank Witt
the winner, who averaged oS.H miles per
hour for the 171.40 miles; Robert Evans
second and Jack Tower third. This was
exactly the same average attained by
Billy Knipper in a Lancia last year in
the same race The Savannah Challenge
cup went to Hughie Hughes. in a Mercer,
averaging 1885 for. the 22.S2 miles. Sec
ond honors went to Louis Heineman in
Marmon and third to Joe Nikrent, also in
q Marmon. Hughes time was six miles

ever participated in. but when he fin

contender, but was beaten at the finish
by over two minutes. Spencer Wishart
landed third place.

The automobile world thought that 1T
had been treated to a speed contest. but
when the Grand Prize race took place an
increase of nearly ten miles per hour
was recorded, which instantly startled the
lovers Of the sport. 1t was the keenest
struggle for supremacy of the road ever
Witnessed, while interest was intense

SUPREME COURT ELECTS'REPORTER.

The October term of the supreme court convened yesterday.
Judge VIM. c. Mclean of Grenada. who was appointed by Gov.
Noel to succeed Judge w. D. Anderson. resigned. was present and
took the oath of Office and entered upon the discharge OF his i'm
portant duties. A magnificent lawyer. a superb Mississppian, Judge
Mclean will grace the ermine and prove a strong member OF the
supreme court of the sovereign state of Mississippi.
Hon. Robert Powell of this city was unanimously elected sn-
preme court reporter to succeed Hon. Thomas A. Melville, whose
untimely death filed the state with sadness, for no man in Missis-
sippi had or deserved more devoted friends than that brilliant Mis-
sSippian. To be unanimously chosen as the successor of such a
son of The state is an honor indeed. That it has so been bestowed
upon Hon. Robert Powell reflects credit upon the court. Mississippi
has sons as devoted and splendid as Judge Powell, but he is the
peer as lawyer. and Missssppian. of Mississippi's best and bravest.
The estimate fixed upon his ability by unanimous election of the
court will be verified by the splendid and able work which he will do
Judge Powell is no stranger to the people of Mississippi. He
would make a governor, a senator or a chief justice, possessed as he
is of talents equal to any position.
For nearly seven years the circuit judge of the capital district
of Mississippi, he was at once an upright and fearless Judge. holding
the scales with equal and exact justice, and the regret was universal
when he resigned that position. The ermine he wore when he laid
it aside va as clean as an unsunned snow. Since his retirement
from the circuit bench he has resided at the capital of Mississippi,
where he has enjoyed a lucrative practice and been held in the
highest esteem and confidence by his fellow members of the bar of
this city and state, than which no city or state in the Union pos
sesses ADLER jurists-Jackson Clarion-Ledger.
1t is personally very gratifying to the writer tc note Judge Pow
ellis election as supreme court reporter. He is the legal peer of
any who have ever discharged the duties of this important trust. He
possesses all those nobler qualities of manhood which make lasting
friendships. He is wise in counsel and sagacious in leadership. He
is loyal to his friends and his ears are always open to their best in
terests. Indeed, in him are beautifully blended the characteristics
of the learned lawyer, the upright citizen, the c~onfding friend and
the useful public man.
