K . „ oi,e command that is in a more
Jeiithful condition, in all probability, than
' r before. Properly speaking, this com
‘ al l cannot be called a militia organiza
® n but the members believe it will be
t „ a matter of comparatively short time
on lin iH it is regularly mustered into
(h., state service and becomes a part of
its organized force.
Th.- Lawton Cadets are the company.
At present iho membership of the Cadets
,1 made up of lioys and young men, many
of whom arc too young to serve in the
„‘.te volunteers. However, as youth is a
null that time will cure, it is not believed
that this obstacle will long stand In the
say of Pie company securing a charter
and becoming a part of the state troops.
('apt. W. L. Pritchard is anxious to see
his company placed upon the same footing
as the other military organizations of the
tv He bediev,a it can he managed with
in the current year, and it is his confident
expectation that ihe Cadets will be regu
larly enlisted by Jan. 1, 1900.
liy tne expiration of this year most of
the hoys who are members of the company
and not of Pie military ago, will have be
come K when they may enlist in the state
-m ice. There will lie some left, who will
lot be old enough to get into the volun
lur troops of Georgia, but they will not
have long to wait. With the training the
members of the command will have had.
pome of them having drilled regularly
p nee ihe company's organization, they will
!*• well up la military, and the Cadets
nnc he counted upon to take their place
among Ihe best of Ihe companies in the
city.
There are only two other such organi
zation In the slate. One of these Is in At
lanta and the other in Brunswick. These
commands are also made up of boys too
young to get inio the state service, so
Iheir interest and enthusiasm in military
matters has to be satisfied in the drilling
end maneuvers that are to bring them up
to a stale of proficiency by the time they
are ready to Join the regularly organized
militia or lo have their own companies
The I.awton Cadets were organized May
12. 1595. those taking part in the organiza
tion and working most industriously to
bring it about were W. 1,. Pritchard, A.
Pratt Adams, George Walter, Edward
Maclean, R. M. Chariton, Dan B. Hull,
Harris Cop and Sidney Stubbs. There
was a membership of twenty, including
officers, the night of the organization.
When it c ame to the selection of a name
for the company it was decided to call It
the loawtoii Cadets, for the late Gen. A. R.
lewton, who had always manifested great
interest in the military of the state and
Efierw.uds look great pride in Ills young
namesakes.

Hr* J, G. Bulloch Spending Some
Time in Savannah,
Dr. J. G. Bulloch of ihe United States
Indian service ls visiting his mother, on
President street. Dr. Bulloch entered the
government service three years ago and
since then has served in several depart
ments. His first detail was in the ca
pacity of sanitary inspector at Blackteard
Island, in Sapelo sound. There were a
number of yellow fever suspects there to
be kept under supervision. After that
he went io the marine hospital service, on
board the revenue cutter Forward. The
Forward, during the yellow fever epidemic,
patrolled the coasts of Georgia. Florida
and Alabama, endeavoring to enforce the
quarantine and restrain the spread of the
Infection.
Soon after that Dr. Bulloch received his
appointment to the Indian service, and
was ordered to report at Pima reserva
tion, Arizona. On this reservation there
are about 6,400 Indians, embracing the
Pima Maricopa and Papago tribes. At
Pima Ur, Bulloch spent eighteen months,
having under his medical supervision these
Indians, and the white employes of the
reservation. The government supports a
school at Pima, where the Indian chil
dren are given clothing, lodging and food
and education in the lower English
branches. Graduates of these primary
schools go frequently to those at Carlisle,
Pa., and Phoenix, Ariz., for more advanc
ed education.
The Pimas are. among the lowest of the
tribes, and retain, despite the civilizing in
fluences of the government, an ardent ?>e
lief in spirits, good, evil and distilled,
and an abiding fondness for caterpillars
end bugs. Still, tlie government has
done much for them and is try
ing Ao do more. Those who display
aptitude are given minor positons in the
service and they are in every way en
couraged to succeed.
The schools maintain also mechanical
and agricultural departments. where
young Rain-in-the-Face is instructed In
the mysteries Of mechanics and the love of
husbandry.
From Pima Dr. Btvlloch was sent to
Ship Island* Biloxi, Miss., and thence to the
Oneida reservation, in Wisconsin. Here
live the once powerful Oneiilas, who have
attained a degree of civilization far in ad
vance of most of the other tribes. Their
schools are successful and Iheir churches
flourish. Several denominations have
handsome church buildings, and very de
vout congregations. Altogether, their con
dition is the most encouraging of all the
tribes to these who are disposed to dis
pute the truth of the saying, "There is
no good Indian, but a dead Indian.”
At the instance of the authorities at
Washington, the physicians in the Indian
service met last summer at Colorado
Springs and organized the Indian Medical
Association. Of this association Dr. Bul
loch was elected the first president.
Dr. Bulloch has been ordered to report
for duty among the Sioux Indians, at
, Cheyenne, S. D. He will lie in Savan
nah about two weeks, when the interests
of the association of which ha is presi
dent call him for a short time to Wash
ington. Thence he goes to his new post
at Cheyenne.
MR. DIXON DISCHARGED.
Commissioner Lewis Found There
AVns No Case Against Him.
Undertaker W. T. Dixon was given a
hearing before United States Commission
er Lewis yesterday morning on the charge
of making a false claim on the government.
After taking voluminous testimony the
commissioner dismissed the charge, the
evidence showing that he was guilty of
nothing more than a techincal offense.
Mr. Dixon took charge of the remains of
W. J. Gault, a private of Battery F, First
Artillery, who died at Camp Graham. Ty
bee. It was charged that he shipped the
body away in a box without a coffin, and
then presented a claim lo the government
in which it was specified lhat a coffin had
been furnished, and collected for the same, j
The evidence showed that the limit of
the amount allowed by the government
was $35. Gault died of typhoid fever and
complications, and there was an autopsy.
The body was in bad condition when turn
ed over to Mr. Dixon, who arteriaily em
balmed it.
Dr. Harmon, house physician at the
Savannah hospital, who secured Mr. Dix
on, had no definite instructions as to how
the body was to be handled. Mr. Dixon
stated that no information about furnish
ing a coffin and zinc lined box was given
him. Owing to the bad condition of the
body he had a square box made with a zinc
lining, and in this the body, covered with
absorbent cotton soaked with formalde
hyde was shipped. Merely placed in a
coffin, and the coffin in a box, the body
would, Mr. Dixon said, have been refused
transportation,
Mr. Dixon stated that outside of work
on Ihe body for parts of four days the
special box cost him sl4. The charges of
$35 was hardly half of what would have
been charged for a civilian. The bills were
made out In the regular form prescribed
by the officials and it was in this way that
•the complications arose from the word
“coffin” being used. On a prior occasion
an itemized bill had been returned to him
with the various items struck out and
merely the general term "coffin and serv
ices rendered” being used.
THE BARK ELVIRA.
At One Time a Faniona Craft Inder
the American Flag.
Editor Morning News: The German bark
Elvira, sold here on yesterday, was form
erly the American-built Sovereign of the
Seas, that holds the record for the fastest
day sailing, t. e., 375 miles In a single day.
In twentyVwo days In the year 1865, she
soiled 5,391 miles, equal to 245 per day. For
four days she sailed 341.78 miles per day,
and for one day 375 miles. At that rale
she would make the run from New York
to Savannah in forty-six hours. We hate
to see such vessels disappear from the
ocean, but with Spanish and Norwegian
sailors at from $6 to sß'per month If ves
sels were given to us we could not afford
to run them and pay current American
seaman’s wages. H. P. Smart.

MOBILE AND GIRARD NOT SOLD.
REI’OHT OF ITS PASSING FROAI THE
CENTRAL A MISTAKE.
President H. SI. Comer of the Central
Says tlie Report That tlie Southern
llns lloiiKht ‘he Mobile nnl Gtrnnl
Is an Error—The Road Is nn Inte
gral Pnrt of the Central and It Is
Hardly Likely That It Would Re
Bought Independently—Mr. Comer
Snys He Does Not Know That Ai*J-
Body Has an Idea of Buylnx or
Sellinsr—Other News of the Roads.
The report published day before yester
day in an Atlanta paper that the Mobile
and Glraid Railroad had been bought by
the Southern Railway was an error. Pres
ident H. M. Comer of the Central was seen
yesterday with reference to the reported
transaction, and he said there was nothing
of truth in lt.
“The Mobile and Girard,” said Mr. Co
er,, “is par.t and parcel of the Central
Railroad. It is just as much an Integral
part of the Central property as is the main
line out of Savannah. As far as I know
there has never been an idea entertained
of either its sale or its purchase, and I do
not see how such a report could have be
come current. There certainly have been
no negotiations.
"The property is encumbered, and I do
not understand how anybody could want
to buy it. A mortgage for $1,060,000 to cover
the Mobile and Girard division bonds is
against the road, and it is also included In
the general mortgage of $16,000:000 on the
Central Railroad property.” There is some
other encumbrance, and Mr. Comer failed
to see just what any one would want to
be buying for.
The Mobile and Girard is known in the
Central system as the Mobile division. It
extends from Columbus lo Searight, Ala.
The Central is about to undertake the con
struction of a short extension of the divis
ion from Searight to Andalusia.

“Mr. A. W. Tinsley is appointed train

proved: Theodore D. Kline, general su
perintendent.
Mr. Bruner leaves to-night, for Macon,
where he will enter upon the discharge
of the duties of the position to which he |
has been transferred. This is that of train- :
master of the division of the road that ;
extends from Macon to Atlanta, embrae- j
ing other branches. It is to the regret j
of those who have worked under him that !
Mr. Bruner leaves this division of the
Central for another. During the years he
has been in Savannah he has made many j
friends
Mr. Tinsley has had long experience in I
railroading, and It is believed he will make !
a worthy successor to Mr. Bruner. Mr. !
Tinsley was a conductor on the road for 1
a number of years, and leaves the position j
of special agent to accept that of train- |
master.

bama for three years, having been ap
liolnted first to the position of assistant
train master al Amerlcu*. He left the
Seaboard Air-Line to take up this position
with the Georgia ami Alabama. It was not
long before his abilities marked him for
advancement, and after a year’s (service
he was promoted to be trainmaster.
Some weeks ago thorp was n report that
there had been an ppijqlntment made to
this position as assistant general freight
and passenger agent of the Georgia and
Alabama, but this was denied by the offi
