The score of Valdosta Shrlners
who 'went to Bainbrldge yesterday
returned this morning after haring
spent a pleasant day In that city.
The cermonlal session yestorda/
.evening was In keeping with I the
manner In which the Shrlnera do
things and the whole town of Bain-
bridge enjoyed the parade and other
features that were open to the pub
lic. The elegant banquet last night
closed the doings of the session.
Most of the jokes of the ShrlnerH
are usually layed on the novices,
those unregenerates who are knock
ing for admission Into the holy of ho
lies, but yesterday the joke was on
a bunch from Savannah, headed by
the Potentate, Mr. E. A. Cutts, who
went to Bainbrldge In a apeclnl Pull
man. Their Car was stolen while
they slept and they were later ar
rested for having stolen It.
The car was switched off at West
Bainbrldge by the night train from
Savannah. A committee of Bain
brldge Mystic Shrlners repaired to
the Coast Line yards where the sleep
er was supposed to be, but to their
surprise car, bag end baggage had
disappeared, as li|iu also a switch en
gine belonging to the O. F. and A.
Railroad. Thta gave rise to a sup
position that the cars had been etol-
en and the engine used to carry the
robbers away with their spoils be
yond the reach of the officers.
Further information was obtained
to the effect that two cars, similar to
those missing, had been seen on *
elding on the O. F. and A. about four
miles north' of Bainbrldge wlthoi
an engine. Satisfied that the offend
ers were somewhere near, Ocnei
Manager Odell, who had been com
municated with and acquainted
the circumstances, swore out a
rant charging the Savannahlans
filching one Pullman sleeping
and one baggage car, the propel

Scranton, Pa., March 23.—Four
hulfldrvd delegates and more than
twice that number of Visitors, In
cluding prominent officers, and mem
bers of the United Mine Worker* in
other states, were on hand here to
day at the opening of the conventloa
which is to decide what course the
miners shall take In view of the re-
fustial of the coal operators to grant
their demands. The convention rep
resents the whole of the snthraelte
district.
The air Is filled with rumors re
girding the probable action of the
convention, but In reality the course
that will be ( taken. Is as problemati
cal ns at any time since It became
ftoswn, that the wage agreement
was not likely to be renewed with
out a struggle. What the outcome
will be no one can with any certain
ly predict.
There Is undoubtedly n strong
peace party among the officers and
leaders of the organisation. Few of
the leaders appear to believe that
a strike at the present time would
stand any chance of success and
they are using their utmost endeav
ors to Induce the convention to come
to terms with the operators and do-
lay the threatened fight at least un
til a more opportune time.
But whether the peace party Is
strong enough to overcome the radi
cal element which la louklly talking
■trike Is not at all certain,

Sheriff Emanuel, armed
warrant, engaged * specs! train; and,
with hla deputies, proceeded to the
scene and affected the arrest with
little trouble. No resistance was of
fered in the face of the fearless
sheriff’s heavily armed posse.
The offenders were confined In their
car and brought to Bainbrldge cuff
ed and chained, paraded through tha
principal streets and lodged In Jail.
While passing down the street at
the head of the procession Mr. Cutis,
who Is potentate of Alee Temple,
passed Roy. J. A. Smith, formerly o
pastor of churches In Savnnnah and
-Bainbrldge nod n frlendi to whom
Sir. Cutts wns heard to oxclalm In
subdued voice:
Parson, pray for me."
A photograph of the offenders was
secured for tho rogue’s gallery. It
was decided to give them a speedy
trial to satisfy the public demand
and the hearing was held before
Judge Benjamin E. Russel. The de
fendants were found guilty and lined
$29,000,000 each, sentence being sus
pended during the session of Aleo
Temple.
In passing the order, Judge Ruisell
remarked that the lino shold be paid
as soon as the Standard Oil Company
has been compelled to pay a similar
fine Imposed by Judge Landis of the
United States Court.
A Railroad to Montleello, FIs.
"The railroad to Moultrie leave*
but one unfilled apoke In the wheei
which the roads to Valdosta form’'
said a prominent citizen thl* morn
ing. "A road to Montleello, Florida:
leading out acroas the river about
tho Rocky Ford bridge and going on
by Flntayson's Hickory Head and
then to the Florida town would be
one of Che heat paying piece* ot
railroad property In the dountry. it
would he about forty five or flUr
miles," he continued, "and the an
gle would he about the same from
the Coast Line that the Moultrie
and Florida road !■ making."
Such a road would go through a
section a* rich as can he found any
where. The road conld he built
cheap and It wonld ho a payer.
Some man, with tho energy and en
thusiasm of Frank Roberts or Brae*
Conolcy can make a big hit on that
line. Are ther not monied men In
Valdosta who wonld like to take up
that enterprise* It Is the best un
opened railroad proposition on the
