A FLURRY AMONG THE KNIGHTS
AN OUTSIDER OX II \XD TO WITAESS
TUE SECRET WORK.
Hr Wan Taken in t>>- n Knight From
Savannah Wlm Labored I nder the
Misapprehension That the Alerting
Was to Bea Pnbllc One—lie Leave*
Before the Secret W ork Was En
tered On—Col. Harmon Presented
With a Sword.
Atlanta. Ga.. May 23—The Knights of
J’ythias finished their business to-day and
adjourned.
The Savannah division, occupying three
special sleepers, left for home over the
Central railroad to-night at 7 o'clock.
At to-day's session of the Grand Lodge,
the committee on the state of the order
made a report which provoked considera
ble discussion. It was proposed to adopt a
new constitution and by-laws in accord
ance with those of the supreme lodge made
In Washington. It was found, however,
that as the new constitution covered 160
pages of typewritten copy, there was not
sufficient time for due consideration of the
proposed changes. On this account this
anatter was postponed until the next meet
ing of the Grand Lodge. It was decided
Cos print a number of copies of the new
constitution and to furnish a copy to each
lodge in the state, and to each represent
ative to the Grand Lodge. Action In this
Snatter will thus be taken up intelligently
at the next meeting of the Grand Lodge
In Amerleus.
A Savannah knight, whose name Is not
given out for obvious reasons, created a
pig sensation In the meeting at the Grand
Opera house last night. The meeting wus
a secret one held to witness some of the
Secret work of the order, but the Savan
nah knight, thinking that it was a con
cert open to the public because there was
tousle on the programme, took Ills
nephew, who Is not a Pythian, along with
,*>lm. Just as the secret work was about
to begin the presence of the outsider was
observed and one of the knights rising in
|Xn excited manner called upon the grand
Chancellor, who was presiding, to have
•he intruder put out. There was a pan
demonium of cries of 'put him out" for a
Sew minutes and In the confusion the Sa
vannah knight took his nephew to the
• door. Speeches were made tending to
Viake the situation serious for the offend
knight, but finally his explanation
af hat he thought it was an opea meeting
accepted.
One of the pleasantest Incidents of the
Knights of Pythias meeting was th** pre
sentation of a beautiful sword to Col K
F. Harmon of Savannah by the First reg
iment. uniformed rank, this afternoon
The sword was given as a testimonial of
the high esteem in which Col Harmon is
' held by the knights of his regiment. The
presentation, which was made by .lariji
Gazan of Savannah on behalf of the Sif
knights of the regiment, took place in
front of the Markham house, which has
been the headquarters of the uniformed
•wank. The regiment was drawn up in a
hollow square. Col. Harmon being taken
| completely by surprise when called Into
The center to receive the beautiful l ift
•which he accepted in a graceful lift
speech suitable to the occasion.
A QP>UIO\ MOTH.
<a UrKrnyi tlie Leave* of a HU
Tree In Thoinaville.
Thomasville, Oa., Slay 23.—Some weeks
ago moths in large numbers appeared on
a beautiful hickory tree on Clay street
In this city, apd spun a fine web over the
entire body and all the limbs of the tree,
in the meantime completely defoliating It.
The moth was unknown and threat
ens to do much damage.
The writer sent a specimen of the web
to the section of entomology, department
of agriculture at Washington. In reply
the entomologist reports: ‘'The web
seems to have been made by a colony of
the larvae of one of the common so called
hand maid moths. The species may be
dathana angusll, which normally occurs
on the hickory."
(One of the insects should have been
sent with the moth for perfect identifica
tion).
"The larvae of these moths have the
habit of feeding together more or less gre
gariously, and are always noticeable from
the fact that they completely defoliate a
branch at a time, or. In the case of small
trees, the entire tree. During molting
they crawl down the tree and collect on
the trunk In a thick cluster, spinning more
or less of a web to enable them to hold
better to the trunk, and It seems to be this
molting web which you have transmitted.
"The fact of hand-maid larvas feeding
together makes It comparatively easv to
‘jar them from the trees and to crush them.
They may also be destroyed by the use of
strong arsenical washes and this remedy
should always be applied when the Injury
Is on a large scale, and is equally good
both for the hand-maid larvae and the
• web worms and for all caterpillars on
trees. A mixture of Paris green may be
.applied In a spray, using it at the rate of
.one pound to 150 gallons of water. A little
attention In the prompt removal of webs
or In the prompt dlslodgment and de
atruction of the caterpillars of the hand
maid moths will prevent any serious dam
age and obviate the necessity of general
, spraying.”
MONTGOMERY COUNTY'S TBifiipiv
A
..Tile Sheriff's Slayer Reported Rilled
by a Posse.
, Atlanta, Ga., May 23.—The governor to
day ofTered a reward of *2OO for the arrest
‘ of William Connell for the murder of the
eherlft of Montgomery county. On the

A story was printed here this morning
that Connell was shot and killed by a
(posse of citizens yesterday morning. It
lacks confirmation, however.

A Brilliant Address by School Com
missioner Glenn.
Douglas. Ga.. May 23—8tate School
Commissioner Glenn addressed the citi
zens of Coffee county at Douglas yester
day. Prof. Tanner Introduced him. He
spoke for an boar on the subject of educa
tion. In referring to politics, he deplored
the present condition of all the counties he
had visited and said that If there existed
any worse curse than ignorance it was
politics, that estranged neighbors, friends,
and families, and was at intervals steal
ing into the school room. The next sub
ject to be denounced was the craze for
money getting. He scored the millionaire
senators of the United States Senate,
whose seemingly sole purpose for getting
there was to form among themselves syn
dicates. and thus enriching themselves,
w holly ignoring the Interests of the masses
whom they pretended to represent. From
a critic on a celebrated Brooklyn trial he
applied the whole trend of modern life to
"'the giving of our wives to the preacher,
our children to the teachers, ourselves to
the business of money getting, and that
we're ail drifting to the devil.
In the strongest of language he urges)
tile building of comfortable school houses
In each district, and the employment of
the best talent ns teachers. He was fre
luentl ap >laud< and The flood '’Grain that
fell from _• n'eloek of tli • morning of the
l!*th to 11 o'clock Tuesday, had so swollen
the streams that the attendance was small,
there being only about 250 persons present.
At close of the address a subscription wue
started for the erection at Douglas of a
modern school building, and In a very few
minutes stou was raised. B . Peterson head

A CHAPTER OF ACCIDENTS.
Valdosta Furnishes u Xmnbcr ut
Small Sensations.
Valdosta, May 23—Last night was one
of sensations In this part of the state. As
the clown passenger train bound for Palat
ka was nearing Lake,City, It ran over and
killed Supervisor J. JJ. Mathews. Mathews
was riding a line man's car ami the elee
tri'- light went out for a moment and dur
ing tho darkness the accident occurred.
Mathews was well known here and his
body was carried up the road for burial
this morning.
An engine was stolen at Tlfton last night
by unknown parties and' carried noarlj'
thirty mlls down the track. When it came
to a standstill there was no water in the
botb-r and the furnace was burned entirely
out. A negro was arrested on suspicion and
the road lias offered a reward of S2OO for
•vidence to convict anyone of the offense.
A drove of burglars are evidently scour
ing the line of the Georgia Southern road,
end. from their work, they appear to be
xperienced cracksmen. At Jennings, Fla.,
i few miles from this city, three buildings
were burglarized last night, and among
ih'iri was the postoffice and ticket office.
Six registered packages were stolen from
the former, but nothing was missed from
the latter, as the agent had left nothing
in the office but tickets, which seemed not
to be in demand. Adams' store, at White
Bprlngs, was burglarized and robbed of
SSO night before last, and the express office
at Arabl was robbed last night of sls
worth of packages. J. W. West A Cos., at
Jennings, were also burglarized last night
and a watch and other articles stolen
The police here are on the lookout for the
criminals and efforts will be made to cap
ture them.
The boilers at the electric light plant
burst last night, but ro one was hurt.
An opening about fifteen Inches long was
made, and the water and stenm escaped.
The place was flooded with water as a
result of the accident. Valdosta will lie
in darkness for the next few nights; Tho
dyjjiage is being repaired.

Brooklyn, May 23 —Hat ing without pub
lic betting or bookmakers received its
first genuine test at Gravesend to-day.
Those in a position to know say that rac
ing under the new law will be Just as pop
ular as ever, and the future of racing Js
an assured success.
This was the first pleasant day of the
meeting, anil a big crowd took advantage
of the fine weather to witness the sport.
There were nearly 5,000 persons present.
This is by far the largest crowd since the
opening day, when the Brooklyn handi
cap was decided. The propri
etors were Jubilant. They begin to see
now that the weather and not the credit
betting system was responsible for the
meager attendance.
The racing to-day was fraught with sur
prises. Despite the upsets in nearly ev
ery Instance, the best horses won, and the
talent had only themselves to blame for
their losses. They began the afternoon
by making Wernberg favorite over Ja-k
of Spades for the opening event. They
practically ignored Rubicon, who, al
though not quite at his best, is a stake
horse. He beat the selling platers with
something to spare.
Hey El Santa Anita was made a dual fa
vorite with Ed Kearney for the second
£ace. On form and even at the weights, he
should have been an odds on favorite. He
picked up his impost of 125 pounds and won
as he pleased. Rey El Santa Anita s race,
a mile and a sixteenth in l:48'/4, is the best
at the weight ever made on the Graves
end track. It stamped him in the eyes of
the!best Judges as a sure thing for the Su
burban if it is run on a dry track It
has been definitely decided to run the Su
burban on Saturday, June 16.
Floretta sustained her first defeat in the
Clover stakes. The weight and distance,
five furlongs were too much for the little
filly. Axiom, the Dwyer filly, won much as
she pleased.
The Littlefield family were very much
in evidence In the Falcon stakes C. Lit
tlefield's Bright Phoebus, ridden bv Fred
Littlefield, won, beating C. Littlefield Jr.'s
Bombazette. This pair went begging at
sixes on the books. Irish Keel was the
favorite and Langdon was second choice.
The selling two-year-old race was won
by Annalyle. The name, contrary to pro
grammes and other official documents, is
one word. This victory was the best
earned of the day. Hanovarlan fell at the
far turn and broke his leg. F. Little
field, who had the mount on him, escaped
with a broken collar bone. Littlefield has
been riding in great form this season. His.
accident caused great regret. *
Sandowne won the sixth race from flag
fall to finish. It Is expected that there wili
be raring on every day at Gravesend next
week. Summaries follow:
First Race—Six furlongs. Rubicon, 122,
Midgley, fi to 1, won, with Jack of Spades
second and 81ster Mary third. Time 1:14.
