The Savannah Tribune. Published by The TRIBUNE PTBLISHING COMPANY. VOL. XVI. TO WATERY GRAVES Six Members of Happy Excursion Party Swept Down by Waves. BATHERS WASHED GUT TO SEA Five Women and Girls and One Man Were the Unfortunate Victims. Trapped By the Incom- A Savannah, Ga., special says: The twelfth annual excursion of the Hebrew Gaemahl Hasad, commonly known as the H. G. H., had a tragic ending Sunday, six members of the party being drowned. The H. G. H. is a popular society with the orthodox Jews, chiefly from Russia and Poland, being of a benevolent character. One of its features is an annual excursion for the members and their families. The excursion was to Daufskie island, twenty miles down the Savannah river on the South Carolina side. The beach at Daufskie is a poor one, and it has been largely given up as a resort. This accounts in part for the accident. The day passed pleasantly enough until between 3 and 4 o clock in the afternoon, by which time the excursionists were scattered all about the island. A party of twelve or fourteen, mostly women and children, decided to go in bathing on the sea side of the island. Between the shore and the deep water there is a wash or sluice, then a shoal and then a fairly good shelving beach. The tide was out when the party noticed that the incoming tide had covered the shoal and decided to return. They were all right until they reached the sluice, where the water was running like a mill race. Almost the entire party was caught and a struggle for life began. Some managed to get back on the shoal and a few got across the danger spot, but six—five women and girls and one man—were caught by the tide and carried down. Their screams attracted those on shore and the alarm was given. There were no boats on that side, and by the time word reached the other side of the islands and the boats were gotten out it was too late. BRYAN'S FRIENDS AROUSED. Ohio Democrats Who Remain Faithful to Nebraskan Will Hold State Convention. On July 31st the Ohio democrats who believe in Bryan, the issues which he represents, and which the recent democratic convention ignored, will assemble in Columbus and make up a state ticket. Ten met met Sunday morning in Cleveland and decided that a bolt should be made, and that a new party could enter the field of Ohio politics. The attendance at the conference it was stated, was larger and represented a greater area in the state than was expected by those who called the meeting. A formal statement of principles was submitted to the conference, and was accepted. This will be printed and sent throughout the state to those who are known to be faithful to the Nebraskan. A convention was decided upon to be neid at the Great Southern hotel on the last day of July. TROOPS GUARD MURDERER. Florida Governor Protects Colored Prisoner In Jail at Lake City. Prisoner in Jail at Lake City, Governor Jennings, of Florida, called out company H. state troops, Friday night to protect T. J. Hampton, colored, confined in Columbia county jail at Lake City for the murder of two white men at Fort White. This was on advice of the sheriff, who was informed that a mob of several hundred was preparing to move toward Lake City from the southern part of the county for the purpose of lynching Hampton. A cordon of sixty soldiers was immediately thrown around the jail and the prisoner in the meantime quietly taken elsewhere. Mining Strike In Northwest. The biggest strike in many years among the miners of the northwest is on at Rossland, Wash. and 1,200 miners are idle. The strike affects the Lerol and other mines owned by British companies. The trouble started through the locking out of union smelter'men. Christian Converts Slaughtered. The reported uprising on the island of Quelpart, off the Korean coast, and the killing of several hundred Christian converts is confirmed in mail press advices reaching the Japanese legation at Washington. DUBIGNON IS OUT OF POLITICS Under His Physician's Advice Georgian Will Not Enter the Gubernatorial Race. A special from Savannah states that Hon. Fleming G. duBignon will not be a candidate for the next democratic abmination for the governorship of Georgia. This announcement is definite and conclusive, Mr. duBignon's determination being based upon the decision of his physician, Dr. Charles L. Dana, who is one of the most prominent specialists in New York and under whose treatment Mr. duBignon has been for the past year. Mr. duBignon left Savannah a week ago for New York for the purpose of consulting with Dr. Dana, and determined to be governed entirely by his physician's advice as to whether or not he should enter the gubernatorial race. He has seen Dr. Dana and the latter writes as follows: "Hon. F. G. duBignon has been under my observation and care for over a year. While his trouble is arrested and he has improved, he would seriously risk a relapse and permanent and serious loss of health if he entered into a strenuous life like that of politics." This decision at once determined Mr. duBignon's course, and he has written to his friends announcing his decision in the matter. He concludes his letter as follows: "My name has been mentioned so often in connection with this office that I wish it clearly understood that this is personally a great disappointment to me. I am out of politics except to work and vote in the ranks of the party. I will, of course, resign my position as chairman of the state democratic committee in due time." The resignation of Chairman duBighon will make Hon. E. T. Brown, vice chairman, his successor as chairman of the state committee until the committee elects a successor. WAS AFFIANCED WIFE. Jacksonville Woman Creates Scansion By Filing Claimto Large Estate. A big sensation was sprung at Jacksonville by the development of a non-cupative will in the settlement of the estate of the late John Powell, a blacksmith who died in the city recently leaving a personal fortune variously estimated at from $200,00. to naif a million dollars. Powell lived almost a hermit in a little cottage, with no attendant except Miss Amanda Beauchamp, a middle aged woman, who was known as his housekeeper. Miss Deauchamp has filed a claim, alleging that she was the afflianced wife of the deceased, and that a few hours before death, in the presence of three witnesses, he verbally willed to her all his property. Affidavits from three witnesses, one of whom is a negress, setting forth this allegation were attached. "WHOLE HOG OR NONE." Cleveland Negroes 'Recent Action of G. A. R. In Drawing Color Line. Cleveland, O., negroes are angry over what they consider an attempt of the citizens' general committee in charge of the Grand Army of the Republic encampment to draw the color line. The trouble arises, because a separate committee of twelve representative negroes of the city has been appointed to entertain the visiting negro veterans during the annual encampment next September. The attempt to make the negro veterans a separate part of the encampment 'is resented. Those who have been named as such committee will refuse to serve. BLUSHING YOUNG BRIDEGROOM Led to Hymen's Altar By a Seventy- One-Year-Old Bride. On Thursday, July 4th at 7 a. m., near Conyers, Ga. Mrs. Mary Mathews, aged seventy-one years, was happily united in marriage to Mr. Ben Harralson, aged eighteen years. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. D. Almond. The couple left immediately for Atlanta to enjoy their honeymoon. It was some time before the fact of the marriage was made known. MORE STRIKERS RETURN. Long Contest Is Now Practically Ended at Cincinnati. Two thousand machinists, who have been on strike at Cincinnati since May 20th, returned to work Monday. This practically ends the strike in that city. The strike managers had announced their intention of concentrating their attack upon certain plants, while permitting men to work elsewhere for the purpose of obtaining funds. At one of the plants designated, however, 600 employees formed in line and marched in a body to their work, thus destroying the strongest hope of the strike leaders. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. JULY 20.1901. SHOWERS A RELIEF Portions of the Drouth-Stricken Section Blessed With Rain. TORRID WAVE IS ON A DECLINE Benefit to Crops, However, Is of Small Value and a Furter Downgour Is Only Assurance of Safety. A special Monday from Kansas City, Mo., states that a portion of the drought-striken southwest has been relieved by rain during the day. Great good has already resulted to crops, and, as there as prospects of a further downfall, it is believed thousands upon thousands of dollars will be saved farmers on stock and crops. Nevertheless, much greater quantities of rain must come be ore a lasting benefit is done. In the portions of central and western Missouri, western Kansas and the territories, still untouched by rain, conditions remained unchanged for Monday, the temperature ranging from 93 to 106, the latter at Hutchinson, Kas. The rain which fell at the end of a drought of from four to eight-weeks' duration covered southwestern Missouri and portions of one-third of Kansas, taking in the southeastern corner of the Sunflower State from Riley and Dickinson counties upn to the Oklahoma line. The first break came Sunday night, when fairly good rains fell in Barton and Green counties, Missouri, and on the Oklahoma border in Kansas; in Cowley and Chautauqua counties and along the Union Pacific road in Riley county. These rains, what were not sufficient to place the burned crops out of danger. Monday morning a heavy rain fell in the vicinity of Joplin, Mo., and, traveling west, covered portions of Montgomery, Butler and Sedgwick counties, Kansas. Around Joplin there was a heavy fall for ten minutes. At 10:30 o'clock a scaking rain fell in Cherokee county across the line in Kansas, preceded by hall, benefiting pastures and small grains immensely and bringing relief to crushing plants in the zinc mining district. During the afternoon a heavy rain fell in the vicinity of Coffeyville, Eldorado and Wichita, Kas. At Coffeyville the people held a jubilee on the streets during the rain. Two counties west from Kansas City, in Jefferson county, Kansas, a fur- inch of rain fell in the afternoon, while in Kansas City a temperature of 101 prevailed and hardly a cloud was visible. "MISTAKE," SAYS BRYAN. Nebraskan Sarcastically Comments on Action of Democratic Convention. In an extended comment on the platform adopted by the Ohio democratic convention, W. J. Bryan criticises the convention for its failure to reaffirm the Kansas City platform, and for what he regards as the weakness of some of the planks it did adopt. Mr. Bryan insists that the convention made a mistake in making himself (Bryan) an issue, and says: "Mr. Bryan is not a candidate for any office, and a mention of him might have been construed by some as an indorsement of him for office. The vote should have been upon the naked proposition to indorse the platform of last year, and then no one could have excused his abandonment of democratic principles by pleading his dislike for Mr. Bryan." Referring to the platform, he continues: "The convention not only failed, but refused to indorse or reaffirm the Kansas City platform, and from the manner in which the gold element has rejoiced over this feature of the convention, one would suppose that the main object of the convention was not to write a new platform, but to repudiate the one upon when the last national campaign was fought. The gold papers assume that the convention refused to adopt the Kansas City platform because it contained a silver plank. If so, it would have been more courageous to have declared openly for the gold standard. If the gold standard is good, it ought to have been indorsed; if bad, it ought to have been abandoned. To ignore the subject entirely was inexcusable. "The money question is not yet out of politics. Every session of congress will have to deal with it. Republicans declare that it is dead, but they keep working at it." Mr. Bryan comments on parts of the platform, especially those referring to state and municipal affairs. He indorses the nominees of the convention and urges their support. ANOTHER BIG STRIKE All Firemen In Pennsylvania Coal Region Quit Their Jobs. HANDS OF MINERS ARE TIED Battle Is Inaugurated For An Elight- Hour Day—It Is Estimated That "Trouble Affects Fifty Thousand Workers. A special from Wilkésbarre, Pa. states that the strike order of Presi- dent Mullahy, of the Firemen's Asso- ciation of Pennsylvania, directing the men to strike Tuesday for an eighte- hour day was obeyed by the men. Nine hundred members of the organization in that section of the state refused to go to work. Most of the strikers are employed as firemen at the coal mines, and their failure to report for duty caused nearly all the collieries in the northern anthracite region to suspend operations, throwing out of work, it is estimated, 30,000 men and boys. Some of the individual coal operators conceded the demands of their employees on condition that the short hour day was not to hold if the men employed by the big companies did not get the same concessions. The big coal companies, however, refused to make any concessions. The officials claimed that the demands of the firemen were unreasonable; that they had received a 10 per cent increase when the wages of the miners were raised last autumn, and that the demands now made upon the companies was equal to a 20 per cent advance. Unable to Replace Strikers. Unable to Replace Strikers. The strikers held a meeting in Wilkesbarre city shortly before noon Tuesday. Reports were received from all the districts and they showed that the strike from Pittston to Shiekshiny in Luzerne county was general, and that the coal companies were unable to secure men to fill the places of the strikers, although it was claimed they had made desperate efforts to do so. The best they could do, it was said, was to press the foremen and fire bosses into the service. This was done at a great many of the mines. Somebody had to do it, because there was danger of great damage being done by water and the accumulation of gas. Some of the hoisting engineers remained at their posts, but their services were not needed in the absence of the firemen. In some cases, so it is reported, where engineers were asked to do firing they refused and quit their jobs. The strikers claim that the engineers are friendly to them and that they will not work with non-union men, President Mullahy said Tuesday night that he had information from all over the northern region that the men were standing firm and that the engineers were with them. He thought the coal companies would be unable to get new men and that the strike would soon come to an end. Friction Between the Orders. Friction Between the Orders. Despite reports to the contrary sent out by officials at the headquarters of the United Mine Workers, it is known that there is considerable friction between the United Mine Workers and the firemen. The miners think that the strike is inopportune and that the firemen should have waited until April next, when the present agreement between the operators and miners expire, before maying their demands. It is also alleged that when the miners went on strike last fall the firemen remained at work and this has caused a little feeling too. Still the United Mine Workers must be governed by their leaders, and it is known that the heads of the organization are in favor of the strikers. Some of the operators will be apt to put the United Mine Workers to the test and see whether they will live up to the agreement made with the operators last April. The agreement compels the miners to work at a fixed rate of wages for one year. There is no clause which permits the miners to remain out on sympathy strike. WHEELER ASKS FOR TROOPS. General Is Anxious to Make Fete Day at Newport a Big Success. General Joseph Wheeler, marshal of the coming fete day parade at Newport, R.I., has sent to Governor Crane, of Massachusetts, a request that the Second and Ninth Massachusetts regiments be sent to take part in the parade. General Wheeler is anxious for the presence of these two regiments that served with him in the Santiago campaign. It is thought there will be 3,000 men in line, including the men from the north Atlantic squadron, naval apprentices, naval brigade, local and state militia.

Steel Workers Cause Shut Down of Many Big Plants of World's Greatest Trust. Reports received in Pittsburg, Pa., Monday from all sources connected with the great strike of the steel workers indicate that the members of the Amalgamated Association had matters well in hand and that the strike order was being generally obeyed. Reports from various points where the American Tin Plate Company, the American Steel Hoop and the American Sheet Steel Company are located told of a shutting down of these plants. In many cases the plants had been shut down by the first strike order, which affected the sheet steel and the steel hoop companies only. The last order brought out all of the union plants of the American Tin Plate Company with the single exception of the new m... in Monessen, which is still running. At the Amalgamated Association headquarters I. was said that the figures given out Saturday night regarding the number of men who would be actually idle in the mills of the three companies had been proven correct. This number is placed at 74,000. The strike, although one of the greatest that has been declared in recent years, will affect Pittsburgh but slightly. The hugo steel strike 200,000 men, roundly speaking, are thrown out of work. They were employed as follows: American Tin Plate Company ..... 25,000 American Steel & Wire Co..... 24,000 American Sheet Steel Company..... 22,000 American Steel Hoop Company..... 14,000 American Bridge Company ..... 14,000 National Steel Company ..... 8,000 Federal Steel Company ..... 20,000 National Tube Company ..... 20,000 Carnegie Company ..... 50,000 Total ..... 190,000 SOUTHERN PROGRESS.

ORDER IS GIVEN TO WALK OUT Both Sides to the Controversy Issue Statements—At Least 150,000 Workers Will Be Effected By the Order. After a three days' session in Pittsburgh, Pa., the conference between representatives of the American Sheet Steel, American Steel Hoop Company and American Tin Plate Company, subsidiary companies of the United States Steel Corporation, and the general executive board of the Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers, adburned finally at 6 o'clock Saturday evening without reaching an agreement. In less than an hour later President Shaffer, of the Amalgamated Association, had wired the following order to all the Amalgamated lodges in the tin plate, steel and hoop and sheet steel mills of the country: "Notify your men that the mill is on a strike and will not work on Monday, July 15th." For the present President Shaffer says that only the three companies named will be affected, but later all the union men in the Federal Steel Company, National Steel Company and the National Tube Company may be called out, if it shall be found necessary to resort to extreme measures to win the flight. At the start, it is claimed 45,000 skilled workmen, 30,000 unskilled men, and directly many thousand more will be affected. Statement by Steel Trust. After the adjournment of the conference the following statement was given out by the officials of the companies interested: The Amalgamated people are very sanguine of success. "The strike was not of our own seeking," said President Shaffer. "It was forced upon us. We were not contending for wages, but for principle, for self-preservation. The tin and sheet people will not be able to turn a single wheel tomorrow. We have our forces thoroughly organized and there will be some surprises in store. I have not heard today from a single lodge in answer to my strike order, but an answer is not necessary. The order will be promptly obeyed by all our men. But there will be no trouble. Labor organizations have changed. The Amalgamated Association is not the association it was twenty years ago, not even five years ago. The men are more readily controlled; in fact, we have our men under control." President Shaffer could not give the total number of men that would be idle, but estimated them from the reports from the other general officers of the organization as at least 150,000. It was his intention to have the strike as general as possible at the earliest possible moment, so as to force a settlement of the dispute-quickest. A week will be required to reach all the men that are to be ordered out, and it will only be then that it would be possible to tell how effective the strike would be and how complete its effect on the business of the country. As soon as the mills shut down the shipment of raw material, of coal and coke for the various plants will cease, it is said. The depression in this respect is looked upon as threatening more serious results than the simple closing of the mills of the United States Steel Corporation.

THE crying need is more business openings for our young men and women. A MAN with a wife and children is foolish indeed if he has not his life insured. POLICE officers must learn that in arresting offenders that they must use more discretion and less of their clubs. It is announced that 74,000 men are affected by the steel mills' strike and that 836,000 dollars are daily being lost by the mill owners and strikers. It is really too bad that capital and labor can not be more closely allied. The combining of talent and finance is the sentiment of the day. The colored man must get into the idea and do likewise. The opportunity is ripe for paying business combinations and investments. The time of action is at hand. We do not begrudge our white citizens of their fine modern school buildings, but we do hope that when the present ones are finished the Board of Education will turn its attention to us and give us a commodious one in the southern section. It may not be generally known, but there are over a dozen banks in this country conducted by Negroes with Negro capital, and are succeeding too. Our people in this city can support a bank easily and make an opening for a number of worthy ones of the race. FROM several parts of this and other states we can hear of crimes committed by our people. If the reports of the daily papers are true, it is really a serious condition of affairs. But it is necessary to take the reports of these papers with a grain of salt. Exaggeration is the make up of certain of these correspondents. Yet the untruthfulness of these reports should not deter our people from obeying the laws and living as model citizens. The Morning News quoted the interview of Bishop Gaines in a New York paper, saying that it would be a good thing to take the ballot away from the illiterate Negroes, that it would give them an incentive to become better citizens. The News wants to know why the majority of the colored people do not think as the bishop does if disfranchisement would do so much good for the race. THE TRIBUNE has often stated that the disfranchisement of the Negro would give him an incentive for the better, but literally all of the best thinking men of the race are against it because it takes away from him that right warranted by the constitution of this country, and that the Negro can not afford to allow any of his foundational rights to be abridged. The latter reason is why a number of the men of the race are endeavoring to test the constitutionality of the suffrage laws of certain states. THE Atlanta Constitution is protesting loudly against the Philadelphia Press because it had in glaring headlines announced the coming of a large number of colored men from the south to be engaged in certain work in that city, and claimed that the Press incited, in these headlines, the colored citizens and Italians of Philadelphia to do violence to the coming laborers. The Constitution and southern dailies are adepts at this business and know just what it is saying when it accuses the Press of inciting the laborers of Philadelphia by its huge headlines. A large per cent of the lynching in this section can be traced to the glaring headlines contained in the Constitution and other dailies. While we do not favor the attitude of the Philadelphia Press in this matter, yet we think that the Constitution should at least learn to reform in the matter of inciting headlines before it reads another journal or a lecture on it. In our issue of last week we spoke of one of the men who assisted the sheriff, of Carroll county, in protecting a prisoner from mobbers, and his discharge and inability to secure employment in that county on account of the part he took in this affair. The Atlanta Constitution along the same line in a strong editorial on Tuesday, says in part: "Are the people of Carrollton willing that they should be known throughout the United States as boycotting a citizen for upholding law? Are the business men of Carrollton ready to have it proclaimed that a law-enforcing citizen cannot procure employment from them? No doubt Mr. Fletcher will be employed. He will find those abroad who will recognize the merit of his work, but the question is, can the citizens of Carrollton afford to let this man accept work from strangers because they will not give it to him themselves? We feel assured that if the business men of Carrollton will but consider this subject a moment they will not allow the fact to go upon record that a citizen was forced from their midst for the simple act of standing by the law of his state." Historical Charade. After a four weeks session at the Georgia:Industrial College, the Peabody Institute closed on Friday evening of last week. It is stated by those who attended that it was the most profitable session ever held. For the closing night, Prof. H. L. Walker of Augusta, and Mrs. N. B. Young had arranged a historical charade which proved to be quite a unique feature of the institute. This charade was participated in by the several teachers. In it persons would represent various personages, events, etc., and the audience was called upon to guess the character. In most instances the characters represented were so perfect that one did not have to guess. The first number on the program consisted of the company who represented the Fisk Jubilee singers; Rev. R. H. Thomas then in a most perfect manner represented the Hon. Frederick Douglass; Longfellow was present in the person of Mr. B. A. Judkins; Miss Sarah Lee personated Harriet Beecher Stowe; Mr. W. H. A. Howard made a veritable George Washington, while Joan of Arc was represented by Miss Florence Hendrickson; the immortal Lincoln was represented by Prof Carwins, Madam Saleka, Miss Tavlor of Americus; Jefferson Davis, Prof. Persely of Macon; Wilson's Minstrel Co., Mr. Johnnie Thomas; Blind Tom, Prof Williams of Macon; Phyllis Wheatley, Miss Julia Wright, John G. Whittier's Maud Muller, Prof. Elder and Miss Florence Hendrickson; Napoleon Bonaparte, Mr. W. N. Nelson; The statutes of Justice and Liberty by Miss Styles and Reynolds respectively; marching through Georgia by the company, led by Prof Floyd Snelson of Waycross. Prof. Wright made some remarks and a set of resolutions were read and adopted. An original poem to the institute was read by Prof. G. G. King of Macon. It is as follows OUR STAY AT COLLEGE Four forty-three at Sunday morn Carry B. B. at the school Looked eager from a Tybee coach At every passer by. Two times the train moved from the shed and twice it returned. The foyer of William's would be left Brought to us much concern. When "all aboard" was heard outside, We each resumed his place. Soon Carwins said "all he is be", Then they in love. Fast, or the rail we sped away, Toward College near the sea; And when six hours had elapsed, At College stood we three. Prof. Young was first to note, the present teacher; He took us o'er to Parson Hall Where suggs D. C. we found. Into his room Suggs took three Where we refreshed in time, That we were to chime. That had begun to chime. Boggs Hall was next to claim our mind, For there were we to spend. Our sleeping hours, while stopping here, "Peabody" to attend. One dollar at the week grant our credit stood; For lodging furnished at Boggs Hall, At Parson, wholesome food. At nine o'clock on Monday morn, The class work we began; And outily we were brain; As only zealots can. The Macon delegation was At this time only three; But letters from us read at home, For services. And now four women and five men, Compose our happy band; And it is the purpose of us all, To do the work at hand. "This one member of our group, By virtue of our friendship, Takes much delight in showing us, How he can 'hookeye' play." But by this act no wrong is done, Since his physicians find; That convalescence is the part, Forbidden of mind. Three hundred teachers it is claimed By those supposed to know: Have studied at this Summer School, Since it has been on the go. At College, where all nature lends, Your power to grow; Where weary brain and tired frame May recreation find. A friendly spirit has controlled, The general trend of things; Protecting children from school; And this, much comfort brings. To make it pleasant for us all, College has truly striven. Acknowledgement of its success, Along this line we give. Outstanding respect for social chats, Have claimed our leisure hours; To the extent that cares could not, Molest our mental powers. Down by the marsh at Sulphur Spring, For the benefit of nature; And I suspect that Chippew's darts, Were into some hearts sent. To our instructors in each branch, Sincere thanks we give; For our professional and rare, Made to love and love. Profs. Cobb and Ross controlled, Our mathematics well; And Penmanship by McIntosh Could not b ew excelled. Prof. Pearson's grammar helps, For training and learning; And Young's unique mind study talks, Disclosed great truths occult. Hygiene and Reading was well taught, For health; And Elders' Home Training helps, Will with us ever dwell. Suggs helped us teachers all to find, That we have from our youth; Skimmed over our geography; Under understood information. Some helpful information came, From Snelson Floyd G. Respecting Civil Law which all Conversant with should be. Together with the Institute, Share your thoughts; The annual meeting at this place, And thus their cause propelled. The papers and the general talks Did much it seems to me; That it should be done; Though slow its progress be. And now the time for us to part, Is fully within sight. Yet we with some reluctance come, To this our final night. My young students: Take charge of every one; And safely guard him from all harm. Till work on earth is done. Pythial Grand Lodge. The annual session of the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias was held last week in Bainbridge. Lodgeg from every part of the state were represented. The delegation was large and everyone deported themselves as loyal knights. Harmony and good cheer were apparent at a stages of the meeting.

Williams of Screven county came in to see us on Thursday. Every lodge must make a clear report this year. All outstanding debts must be settled. Worshipful Master Ellerby wants the craft to know that Covenant Lodge No. 187 is doing good work. It has just finished erecting a large hall and a number of members have been received. Bro. Ellerby likes THE TRIBUNE and condoles in the death of Bro. Terry. Several brethren have announced their candidacy for the grand mastership. We do not need a man who is seeking the position. This position must seek the man and he must be a good one at that. Let every member of the Grand Lodge frown upon the brother who is seeking for votes for this exalted position. On Friday night of last week a joint meeting of all of the lodges of this city was held and memorial exercises of the late Grand Master W. E. Terry were conducted. A committee was appointed by District Deputy Grand Master Whaley to arrange a programme and render suitable resolutions. The program as arranged was carried out. Past Grand Master Deveaux acted as master of ceremonies. Short talks were made by the following brethren Past Master, M. G. Robertson, Past Master, Sol. C. Johnson, Past Master, G. L. Bowen, Past Master, A. G. McDowell; Worshipful Master, E. N. Sullivan, and Past Grand Master, Alexander Harris. The following resolutions were adopted: For the first time in the history of our Most Worshipful Grand Lodge the brethren of the craft have been afflicted in the loss of their Grand Master being called to answer the highest summons known to mankind, while engaged in the East Side church, who become the key essential for the good of the fraternity and humanity. The death of Grand Master W. E. Terry at this time was a great shock to the lodges of Savannah and all the good men generally who knew him. He was a man of the greatest activity, and perseverance, and was engaged in the work of his home at Americas for the widows and orphans of Master Masons of the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge, when the Supreme Architect put an end to his labor and called him to his reward. The masons of this city, therefore, in joint communication do resolve. That in the death of W. W Grand Master W. E. Terry, over which he has lived, and formerly sustained a loss that will be felt everywhere and whose place it will be hard to fill. That his zeal in spending much of his valuable time for masonry, not only for the diffusion of knowledge among the brethren, but for the purpose of looking after the welfare of the widows and orphans of the church, and him as one to be beloved, and deserving all the honor to his memory that can be expressed by masons. That the sympathy of this communication is tendered his afflicted widow, children, and relatives in their great bereavement on the loss of their husband, father, and leader. That these proceeding be published in the Masonian, THE SAVANNIA TRUNNE, and a copy besent to the family of our lamented Grand Master. Committee, M. Garey, W. M. E. N. Sullivan, W. M. E. G. L. Bowers, W. M. E. B. Roberts, P. M. Alex. Harris, P. G. M. J. H. Deveaux, P. G. M. From Prigden, Fla. DEAR EDITOR: Allow me space in your valuable paper to speak of my trip to the Palmetto state.

Though we mourn to give him up, may we all meet in the Grand Lodge above. Oh may our Heavenly Father heal our broken hearts. Fraternity, Z. R. Fullmore. Pridgen, Fla., July 16, 1901.

TALES OF PLUCK AND ADVENTURE How Cruse Saved, the Trooper. ter's department, United States army, got another step the other day and once more changed the little image in his shoulder strap. Colonel Cruse has been a long time in the staff department which has to do with army mules, tents, canteens and haversacks. When he first left the line for the staff friends said he couldn't stand it, but when a man has fought more than most and licked all that he fought, it's not overhard to urge him to take the soft side of a pillow. They say in the army today that Tom Cruse can't pick up a sample shovel that some contractor has submitted for inspection without coming to an "advance carbine" with it and later trying to cook the thing. Cruse for years was an officer in the Sixth Cavalry. Out at Fort Sheridan the other day a retired enlisted man who had served under Cruse some years ago told the story of how the quartermaster officer won the little bit of bronze which on certain occasions he wears pinned to his blouse. In the early summer of 1882 Cruse was a second lieutenant in "K" Troop of the Sixth Cavalry. He was out scouting after Apaches down in the very hottest part of Arizona. The command had trailed along till it came to the rocky basin known as the Big Dry Wash. Cruse had something less than a corporal's guard with him. The little band had not seen a sign of an Indian since it set out, but then Apaches are not given to making signs, nor do they wait for formal introductions before extending warm greetings to those who would cross the threshold of their rock desert fastnesses. Beyond the basin of the Big Dry Wash was a natural fortification of rocks. Cruse sent a man to the right flank to take a peep behind the bowlers before crossing. The trooper returned and reported there was nothing there. Then the little command pushed down into the basin and fury opened from behind the rocks to their front. The fire was concentrated and terrific. Two of the six saddles were emptied and the mounted command gave way and sought the shelter of the rocks to the rear. Under the thumping hall of bullets Cruse lifted a wounded trooper to his saddle and bore him back to shelter, where, the men dismounted and took what count they could of their hidden enemy across the basin. It was supposed that the second trooper who had fallen in the open was dead. While looking out across the waste between him and the ambushed savages Cruse saw the fallen trooper move. Then there happened one of those things which a single line in the medal of honor list tells about, but to which a whole volume cannot do justice. Cruse, carbine in hand, stood straight up, a fair and easy mark for a bullet. A tawny face showed beyond and an eye glanced along a rifle barrel. Before the weapon spoke Cruse's carbine sent a bullet straight through the Apache's head. Then he rounded the rock in front and strode across the open toward the wounded soldier. At every third stride he fired. He was one of the crack shots of the army, and the bullets scarred the rocks close to the heads of the lurking reds. They had seen their comrade's head split clean at 150 yards. They dared not expose themselves enough to take careful aim, but they answered the officer's carbine challenge with a scattering volley. He reached the mongol trooper. Behind him had come two of his men, "Pick him up, boys;" and I'll cover the retreat. He stood there facing the enemy's lurking place. A savage braver than the rest stood up and fired. The bullet scratched Cruse's arm, but an ounce of lead crashed into the Apache's head. Cruse walked backward, while behind him his two devoted men bore their stricken fellow. Bullets tore up the sand, but the magnificent nerve and courage of the soldier who sent back true a shot for every volley palsied the Apache's alm. Back to their breastworks the soldiers went with their burden, Crusie standing erect and sending one last shot before sinking to cover. They reinforcements came and eighteen savages were put to flight. *To-day it is nothing but two cents' worth of bronze and a bit of ribbon that, reminds one of the gallantry on that July day in the basin of the Big Dry Wash.-Edward B. Clark, in the Chicago Record-Herald. Man Defeat Dog. Awakened from his sleep by the maddened beast, Dr. Robert J. Kingston had a terrific encounter lasting for more than an hour, at his home in Newburg, N. Y., with Bruno, his St. Bernard dog, weighing more than 200 pounds. He overcame the brute, choking him to death, but at no light cost. Dr. Kingston had reared the dog from a puppy. It was left at home at night to protect the household when professional business called the head of the family away. He was out one night on a case and in the morning was resting, and the children were playing with the dog. Suddenly the animal was seized with convulsions, and, running out of the dining room, ascended to the bed chamber of the doctor, sprang on the sleeping physician, and the fight for life followed. Dr. Kingston realized that the animal was wholly uncontrolable, and that there was grave danger for other members of the family if it should escape and get down stairs again. Under this thought he lost sight of his own peril, and devoted himself to preventing the beast from so doing. He succeeded in driving the frenzied animal into the bathroom adjoining his apartment and then closed the door. But in the act Dr. Kingston was forced to lock himself in as well, for the brute fought fiercely every step of the way. Once the door was locked Dr. Kingston began the battle for his own safety, fighting with grim desperation, for he knew that only by winning a complete victory would he be spared a fearful death. The physician is wiry, but not apparently a man of great strength, and for a time the struggle was an unequal one. Time after time the dog buried its teeth in the fleshy part of the lower arm, which the doctor used as a guard for his neck and face. Finally the animal was forced into a position whence it could not escape. With both hands clutching its windpipe, Dr. Kingston choked the breath out of the animal's body, and then, with the assistance of a neighbor, who had arrived, threw the huge carcass from the window. Dr. Kingston sank to the floor, not unconscious, but weak from the exertion and the excitement. Dr. F. M. Phillips was summoned, and the injured arm, bitten through and through in many places, was cauterized and bandaged. While the fight was on the nose was heard by neighbors, and among those who came to the rescue were Bryant Young and the son of Governor Odell, who lives directly opposite Dr. Kingston. He wanted to shoot the dog, but the expedient threatened danger to the physician, who at that time had almost mastered the beast. Much Might Have Harrenco- When tigers are really at large in England, says the London Chronicle, there are no newspaper paragraphs about the fact. The secret is firmly held. At Clifton there is a delightful zoo. It was discovered one morning that & tiger had escaped from his cage during the night. It was the day of a children's fete at the zoo. A hasty search of the grounds was instituted, but no tiger was found. Then the superintendent decided to keep his own counsel and trust to luck; for it seemed as if the tiger had scaled the walls and was in the open country. Thousands of children romped in the gardens during the day, and cried "Oh!" and "Ahl" as the fireworks gleamed in the night. All the evening they played and sauntered about among the trees and in shaded alleys and dark corners, and then everybody went home, tired and happy. In the early dawn there was another search for the tiger; and in the corner of a disused monkey house was found the "monarch of the jungle," still trembling from freedom and fireworks. His keepers threw a handkerchief about his neck, and he meekly allowed himself to be led back to the grateful safety of his cage. But many things might have happened during that fete day. Wife Killed Wildcat and Saved Husband "I never want to see another wildcat," said Mrs. John Green. Mrs. Green had saved the life of her husband, but is not boasting of her prowess. Mr. Green had fired at the wildcat with a shotgun, but missed. Before he had discharged the second barrel the animal had sprang from the limb of a tree and fastened teeth and claws in the man's shoulder. The family dog attacked the wildcat, but would have been killed had not Mrs. Green taken part in the battle. She seized the shotgun from her husband's hands and struck the cat a blow on the head. That ended the animal's life and the battle. Green is a sayyer, living on Canaan Mountain, in Connecticut. He and his wife were aroused by the barking of the dog. Going outside the man discovered a large wildcat and a young one grouped in a tree near the house. After he had fired and missed his wifo came to his rescue. A Lineman's Remarkable Escape. There have been many remarkable escapes from death, but Oliver Ladoucer, a St. Paul Lineman, had an experience lately that is hard to beat. He was testing a wire that extends from the store of Hurley Brothers, in Robert street, to the store of William R. Burkhard, directly across the street. Ladoucer was hanging on to the wire with both hands and was slowly crawling out, hand over hand, toward the middle of the street. He had got but a few lengths when he felt the wire giving way. He jumped toward the street, a distance of thirty feet. In falling he made a grasp for the electric feed wire of the street far line. It held him without his feet touching the ground, and this saved his life. Had his feet touched anything he would have been instantly killed—Minneapolis Tribune. Whales Attack Men in a Canoe. Whales Attack Men in a Cabo. While trying to fight enraged whales from canoes two members of the Charleston telegraph line construction party at Fort Simpson were hurt so seriously that they barely escaped with their lives, says a special from Vancouver, B. C. Sixty men are at work stringing Government wires on the Skeena River. Last Friday three whales came twenty miles up the river and a dozen men turned out to chase them. The whales turned on the light canoes, and the river was soon in a foam with the splashing of the animals and the efforts of the canoemen to escape. One of the boats was smashed by a glancing blow of one of the whales. One man's arm was broken, while a second was knocked unconscious—Chicago Tribune. LION COFFEE "The Enigma in the Sun."

AN EYE-OPENER "I wish a position," hurtly began the young man who imagined the world waited on a corner for him. "What can you do?" queried the cement-headed commercial bondholder. "Oh, everything," said the young man, flippantly. "Indeed!" marveled the business man. "To give you that job I should have to discharge my 3,000 employees, and, to be frank, I doubt the propriety of such a step. Good day!"—Ohio State Journal. A Real Funny Story. Old Tim Linklins, the barber of Webash Avenue, Chicago, is a great student of proverbial philosophy, and he sometimes entertains his customers. In the interval of a "scrapo" or "haircut," by his apt applications of the well-known proverbs of the past to the conditions or requirements of the present. His regular customers know his strong point, and many are very well-known to be a "in the same way" in search of a rest in a cozy chair, and has a desire to hear "Tim" hold forth proverbially. One day last week a stranger came in for a shave, and as he stretched himself wearily in the chair. Tim prepared to lather him. The man incidently remarked that he had intended coming in earlier in the day but had been prevailed. "Well, it's better late that I've been to Tim willingly. " "Not ways," replied the stranger. "How about losing your pocketbook? I never lost one until yesterday—never did, but I would sooner have kept it. Now, why was it better for me to lose it late than not at all? " Tim acknowledged that he was wrong and the man continued: "Don't know what I would have done in my predilem, only an old acquaintance of him on the way. I'm so right. I'm always twice to go on with." "Ah," chipped in Tim, "that was good! A friend in need is a friend indeed." "No, he isn't," snapped the man who was being shaved. "There you'd dead wrong again. How can a friend in need be a friend indeed? I have a good many friends who are always in need and they are a nuisance to me. Always on the borrow." "Tim thought the problem of the mind and reluctantly almost that the person said right." "I'm almost made up his mind not to speak again when the stranger continued. "Yes sir, they are nuisances. Why, one of them fellows has been calling on me for the past year and threatens to get even with no some way if I do not loan him fifty dollars. He threatens me at every visit. " Oh, I wouldn't mind that, " replied Tim unconsciously, " you know the old aglago. A banking, then, he's biled." "I'm so very good," said the "shave," as he wiped a little lather from the corner of his mctth. "Say, what do you know about dogs, anyway, that you talk in such a silly strain? I have you ever ventured to go too close to a barking dog.—and if you did, what did he do to you? Did you ever know a barking dog that didn't bite if he got the chance?" Tim said he couldn't exactly call to mind any eminence to the same thing. The same quaintance, and there was a little for a few minutes while his razor was gliding over the man's face. Then the barber smiled to himself as he bethought him of a good joke. "I suppose," he said, as he applied the bay run, "I suppose you don't believe in the barbers proverb at all?" "What's that?" asked the stranger, rising. "Two heads are better than one," answered Tim. "I'm course you'd never be the more. I'm sure that I know you would like to say they would be bad for a man with the headache or—" "Nothing of the kind," put in the other, smiling. "Ono of your proverbs, at least, is right. I happen to know that two heads are better than one." "Then you don't object to that old adage?" "Not at all. It is dead right. And I would thank you very much if you have any say of the heads and—those woken about the Life of the wrap. I think life is the collecting them and she is about six why of the number required to get a Lady's Gold Watch. You see in this case "two heads are better than one, and twenty are better than ten." "Just so," added Tim, cheerfully, "but you see, my wife is doing the same thing, and expects a premium in a few weeks. So to her also, two heads are better than one." "Well, the best thing is the "goods," he said. "I'm for the shave and prepared to depot, " you had better tell your wife to do the same as mine is doing.
