Order Men Last Nioht.
A Movement Started for the Erec
tion of z $40,000 Structure to be
Occupied by the Various Lodges
Here—Some Stock Already Taken
in the Proposed Building.
(From Wednesday’s Daily.
The Pythians, Odd Fellows and
Masons had one of the most enthu
alastic meetings at the Pythian hall
last night that has ever been held in
this city.
The meeting was called for the
purpose of considering plans and
means for the erection of a fraternity
hall here to be built especially for

lodge purposes with spare room to
be rented to desirable renters.
Rev. L. R. Christie presided over
the meeting and Mr. P. K. Wilson
■was chosen secretary. It was sug
gested that the Masons/ Pythlans*
Odd Fellows, the Young Men’s Chris-
ian Association, the Public Library
and the Wymodausis club, If it de
sired to join the movement, could
Jointly erect a structure thq‘ could
be used by all of these diffef At so*
cleties.
It was suggested that the stock be
fixed at $10 a share. Addresses were
made by Messrs. C. R. Ashley, B.
W. Bentley, W. B. Conoley, Prof.
Daniels, J. T. Blalock, Dr. Talbot,
Rev. C. C. Carson and others, all
of them giving enthusiastic endorse*
ment to the movement.
Subscriptions were opened and
$7,550 of the stock was taken on the
spot. It was stated that subscribers
to the stock in the building will be
allowed liberal time in which tc
meet their payments, and it is be
lieved that the entire $40,000 of the
stock will be raised.
The following committees were
appointed to solicit subscriptions
among the members of the various
orders:
Knights of Pythias, A. E. Dim
mock. T. M. Talbot and E. W. Ed
wards.
Phoenix Lodge of Odd Fellows, Dr.
L. C. Holteendorff, P. K. Wilson
and F. H. Hewlett.
Valdosta Lodge Odd Feljows, J.
T. Blalock, T. A. Davis and W. D.
Peeples.
Masons. B. F. Strickland, A. H.
Havenkott and G. A. Whitaker.
They Object to Being Called “Hog
and Hominy.”
Because their conduct toward the
Greene and Gaynor Jury within the
last few days is construed to be con
tumelious by a crowd of youths rang
ing from the small boy to the young
man of 18, Marshal White has given
his bailiffs positive instructions to
arrest and take before Judge Speer
"every mother's son of them” caught
in the act.
"Hog and Hominy,” ia a favorite
epithet the lads hurl at the jurors in
their daily walks through the street*
and particularly in the parks. The
| conduct of the boys nas become so
offensive to the jurors that a request
has been made by them to have For-
• syth Park cut out of their daily itin-
jerary, it is claimed. It seems that
j in the parks the boys line up when
the jury is scheduled to pass that
way and the salutations are by no
means sweet encomiums.
When the jury goes out for the
regular walk today it is expected a
practice drill will be Indulged in.
There are four in charge of the Jury,

(From Wednesday’s Daily.
The Valdosta baseball club has
been organized with some of the best
players in the South to hold down
the various positions.
The uniforms for the team have
been ordered and the club will be

if the boys do not put in their usual
appearance the bailiffs will “play
like” their swarm of tormentors are
after them and will test the plan by
which it is purposed to run down the
boys
As soon as the boys commit an
overt act the body of Jurors will
quickly be transferred to the custo
dy of Capt Tucker and the three oth
er officers will give hot chase. If the
boys are only imaginary the trio of
officers will resume their places In
charge of the Jury. If they are real
the boys will be yanked before Judge
Speer, and, perhaps, fined for inter
fering with the jury.—Morning News
Argued Pickpocket Cases.
Solicitor General W. E. Thomas
and Col. G. T. Whitaker went to At
lanta Monday and the argument In
the cases against the alleged pick
pockets before the supreme court
was heard on Tuesday. The argu
ment was on a bill of exceptions to
the finding of the superior court
some time ago. The matter was tak
en under advisement by the supreme
court, but It is not expected that a
decision will be reached under ten
days or two weeks. The lawyers
who have watched the case and
know what the legal points In it
amount to are of the opinion that
one .of the men may get a reversal
of the superior court finding, though
the chances are very slim for the oth*

Valdosta club has a number of play
ers that can easily get positions on
any of the league teams if they
would only consent to play In the
larger leagues.
Manager Starr has Instituted a
guessing contest; open to all of the
ladles of Valdosta, as to the color 1
of the uniform to be worn by the ,
Valdosta boys. The plans for the |
guessing contest will be announced
in a day or two.
"Having suffered for years with a very
obstinate case of dandruff and falling hair,
I had almost despaired when a lady friend
induced me to try Newbro’s Herpiclde.
Now after a thorough trial 1 cannot say
enough in praise of it. From a dull
lustreless head of hair I have now a
beautiful head of glossy hair which I can
only thank Herpicide for." -
