Th© University Club held its annual
meeting end eleventh annual dinner last
night at the De Soto, and another success
was added to the list that passing years
have brought. Since the organization of
the club, which has grown and flourished,
and been the means of great educational
good in Georgia, there has been the deep
est interest shown by its members, many
of whom have remained constant and in
defatigable in their zeal since the club
was formed.
The annual meeting was held in the gen
tlemen's parlor of the hotel, Pres
ident Peter W. Meldrim presid
ing, and with the following
members present: Messrs. B. A.
Denmark, A. R. Lawton, A. P. Wright,
W. T. Johnson, Saotiev Tison, S. B.
Adams, Davis Freeman, Gallaher, W. W.
Gordon, Jr., John D. Carswell, T. M.
Cunningham, Jr., Shelby My rick, C. D.
Kline, George W. Backet, W. D. Kent,
Henry McAlpin, R. J. Travis, David 0.
Barrow, Benj. C. Yancy, A. P. Adams
end J. H. Burner. As out-of-town guest*.
Chancellor Walter B. Hill of the universi
ty, Mr. S. G. McLendon of Thomns
ville, and Hon. Byron B. Bower of Bain
bridge, were present. These gentlemen
were warmly welcomed by the club.
After the meeting was called to order
by President Meldrim and the reading of
the minutes, memorial resolutions to the
late Col. John Sdreven, president of the
club, were read. The resolution#* paid
eloquent and deserved tribute to Col.
Screven, lauding him for his many vir
tues, and pointing out a few of the qual
ifications that marked him as a gentle
men of the “old school.” The club adopt
ed the resolutions, which will be published
in the Morning News. A committee ap
pointed nt th* preceding meeting reported
to the Executive Committee the names of
a number of prospective members, oil of
whom were voted upon. Invitations to
unite with the club in the worthy and
deserving work in which it is employed
Will be extended these gentlemen.
The report of the secretary and treas
urer, Mr. Davis Freeman, was very sat
isfactory, showing the club to be num
erically and financially in excellent con
dition. Something of the extent of good
It is accomplishing could be gathered
from that part of the report, touching*
upon expenditures made in behalf
of young students at the university, who,
by their earnest application to studies
and duties have proved themselves worthy
of the assistance they are receiving from
the club. Several of the beneficiaries
have been gradually repaying the money
that was loaned them for the completion
of their course, and there ore two or
three who have totally discharged their
obligations, leaving themselves absolute
ly free of debt and able to reap the bene
fits that follow upon close and studious ap
plication during a college career. In this
connection the club turned to the consid
eration of two more young men who lire
applicants for loans, and a committee was
appointed, with power to act, <o investi
gate their records and learn if they are
entitled to the aid of the organization,
which, as far as possible, is extended
only to those who are in every way mer
itorious.
The election of officers to serve the club
the ensuing yean resulted as follows:
• President —Col. P. W. Meldrim.
Vice President—-Mr. Davis Freeman.

orchestra in an adjoining room all the
while discoursing sweet music, the presi
dent, acting as toastmaster, called upon
Hon. 8. G. McLendon of Thqraasville,
who responded eloquently to “Georgia.”
With an introduction from the president
that needed eloquence and thought to sub
stantiate it, Mr. McLendon supplied ihe
need, and it was with the frequent ap
plause punctuated commendation of his
audience, that he responded to his toast.
Opening with thanks and appreciative
expressions of the pleasure he felt in be
ing with the members of the club, Mr.
McLendon devoted himself at some length
to an exposition of the great names that
have made Georgia great, applauding in
choicest rhetoric the accomplishments and
deeds of some of the slate’s noblest sons
and commending them to the undying
honor and veneration of the generations
that follow. Opportunities, the speaker
said, remain at this day, and the United
States and Georgia remain to be bettered
by the grasping of these opportunities
and their use for the advantage of those
institutions, political and social, that re
dound to the glory and honor of the coun
try and state. Georgia, through the ef
forts of these sons of the present day,
will preserve her glory and add yet
brighter stars to tho brilliant galaxy of
stars to which her people proudly point.
With this sentiment the speaker closed
amid the applause of th* club, whereupon
the president, with happily tliosen words,
introduced Mr. Yancy. who responded to
the toast “Young Alumni,” the younger
brothers to whom the university must
look for Us support in years to come.
Mr. Yancey, after introductory remarks,
that were well rereived, addressed him
self to those whom he represented, the
younger alumni, gathered with older mem
bers of the club for the honor and inter
est of Georgia and the University of
Georgia, whose efforts are to be dbected
to the pushing onward of educational ad
vantage ond the upbuilding and regener
ation of the state. The interests of the
universtly should be consulted, the speak
er said, through other means than those
to be brought by the politician, and its
end, the instruction and improvement of
the youth of the state, should be compass
ed by the zeal and love of her sons. The
mantle of the fathers has fallen upon the
sons, he showed, and efforts of the young
alumni should be unspared in fulfilling the
filial duty to the alina mater.
Mr. W. W. Gordon, Jr., was called on
for a sons' after Mr. Yancey’s speech, re
sponding happily with "Just a Sony at
Twilight," in the chorus of which the
meiQberaUolned.
"Our Country's Departure from the j
True Principles of Democracy” was a j
toast that called forth some little merri- I
ment from the members as announced by
the president, who led up entertainingly
to hts introduction of Mr. Shelby Myrick
to respond to the toast. Mr. Myrick be
gan with a declaration of his love and
reverence for the university, telling some
thing of its grand achievements, but
turned soon to his subject, showing
wherein the country has deviated from the
straight and narrow path of true democ
racy. Mr. Myrick . followed the
History of the country from
its inception, leading chronologi
cally, through peace and war, up to
the present day of imperialism and de
parture from the time-honored principles
of democracy, a great crisis in the his
tory of the United Stales, when empire
or republicanism is to set its Beal upon
the land as the will of the people may dic
tate. The speaker declared that this
country should make the policy its Con
gress declared for Cuba three years ago
that which should shape ks course with
the Philippines, and warmly he denounced
the methods that are pursued by the ad
ministration in itg dealings with the isl
ands, his denunciation evoking the ap
plause of a number who seemed to sym
pathize in his view of this widely-dis
cussed question. Mr. Myrick differentiat
ed between expansion and imperialism,
commending the former as exemplified In
the purchase of Louisiana and other an
quisitions of comiguous territory, but de
riding the latter and Philippine aggran
dizement as a means for the forwarding
of the interests of the United Stales.
Col. A. R. Lawton, after Mr, Myrick's
speech, sang “I Am Gwine Back to
Dixie," width, as is invariably the case,
was well received.
Chancellor Hill was then introduced,
and his speech was an intensely practical
and entertaining story of the uni
versity as he had known it a student, and
as he knows it as chancellor. Several
jokes the chancellor told out—Denewed
Depew, and evidence of the appreciation
of ids audience was by no means lacking,
for the members responded vigorously to
every point made. After quite an array of
these jokes, some of which did not spare
himself, the chancellor devoted some min
utes to a talk of the university as it is
to-day, telling of an instance to show the
healthful moral atmosphere that sur
rounds the institution. Education was
commended, and the Ideals of Jefferson
educationally were mentioned, arid the
speaker closed with a statement that the
achievements of his own administration
of the university are in prospect rather
than in the past, as an* those of his pre
decessors. and begged the assistance of
his assembled friends in prosecuting the
work of tiie institution and promoting its
weal.
Mr. Hill’s was the last speech, and upon
11s conclusion the club adjourned.

CTIARLTOSTS LETTER TO BROWN.
Chairman of County Committee Say®
Primary Will lie Fair.
When the appeal made by Mr. Osborne
ar*i his friends to the State Executive
Committee from the action of the Chat
ham County Committee, in establishing
rules for the primary, alleged to be un
fair, was urged. Hon. Walter G. Charl
ton, chairman bt the County Committee,
addressed a letter to Vice Chairman
K. T. Brown, of the State Committee.
This letter was alluded to in the tele
graphic correspondence between Messrs.
Charlton and Brown, published in yester
day's Morning News. A copy of the let
ter was sent by Chairman Charlton to
each member of the State Committee,
with a view’, as> he says in his letter, that
“you and no other member of the Execu
tive Commute© may act ili-advisedly upon
this question.” The letter is as follows:
“Hon. E. T. Brown, Vice Chairman,
State Democratic Executive Committee,
Atlanta, Ga.: My De:tr Sir—l only know
from the newspapers what certain people
in Chatham county may have represented
to you as to the political conditions ap
pertaining here. You represent the .de
mocracy of the state and being a Geor
gian, understand that within your con
sideration is the county of Chatham. The
Executive Committee, acting with entire
fidelity to the rules promulgated by your
body, have provided for a primary on
the 15th of May in consonance with your
requirements. If there be any unfairness
designed in the approaching primary I
am not advised of if. On the contrary,
I am persuaded that the result will not
only be as fair as that which has been
proclaimed of past years, but will be be
yond criticism; otherwise, it would not
be toleratedv '*The opposition to Mr. Os
borne can only hope to succeed through
the intermediary of an entirely fair pri
mary. Of this he it? entirely advised. He
wiU be given a fair primary and the
conditions under which it will be held
are, so far as I know, entirely acceptable
to every other candidate for office save
him.
“I am taking the liberty of sending you
by this mail a copy of the resolutions
adopted by the Executive Committee of
the coupty of Chatham and in the same
publication you will find an extremely
temperate statement of the Hon. Walter
P. Laßoche, representative from Chat
ham county, and who moved the resolu
tions, explaining the motives which act
uated it. I know your fidelity to the
party and I think it but Just to you, with
out knowing what misrepresentations may
have been made to you in regard to the
conditions here, to advise you of these
facts wkh the view that you and no
other member of the Executive Commit
tee may act ill advisedly upon this ques
tion. A mistake at this time may mean
the ruin of the. Democratic party in the
county of Chatham. 1 am taking the fur
ther liberty of sending a copy of this
communication to each member of your
committee, save Mr. dußignon, who, I un
derstand,‘is in New York under the care
of the physicians, and he, surely, ought
not to be harassed and worried with a
local matter of this sort at this time.
Yours very truly, Walter G. Charlton,
Chairman Dem. Ex. Com., C. C.”
SULLIVAN DENIES REPORT.
Never Threatened to Cense Buying
From Political Opponents.
Mr. John J. Sullivan, the member of the
County Executive Committee, who was
elected by that body at its last meeting
to fill the vacancy created by the death of
Mr. A. N. Manucy, was considerably ex
ercised yesterday over’ the statement
made by Mr. Osborne, at the Citizens’
Club rally, to the effect that Mr. Sullivan
had threatened to break off business re
lations with a man, unless the latter
would cease to employ another Inimical
to his political faith. In this connection
Mr. Osborne made sarcastic reference to
ihe fairness of an election Judge who
would be guilty of such a threat as he
imputed to Mr. Bullivan,
When he was seen yesterday Mr. Sulli
van had the following to say on the sub
ject: "The statement made by Mr. Os
borne in his speech Tuesday night, to the
effect that I desired to have a man dis
charged ,bv the soda water concern with
which I deal because he Is opposed to me
in politics, is absolutely false. Mr. Os
borne's and sire to retain his office ought
not to render him indifferent to the harm
that might be done others by circulating
unfounded reports, so far as personal or
political honesty Is concerned.”
In connection with his own denial of
the statement made by Mr. Osborne, Mr.
Sullivan handed to the Morning News re
porter the following affidavit from George
Campsen, the manager and proprietor of
the soda water concern in question. This
affidavit Is as follows:
Georgia, Chatham County.—Personally
appeared George Campsen, who, being
duly sworn, deposes and says that he has
read the following statement in the Sa
vannah Press of Wednesday afternoon,
May 2, purporting to be a quotation from
Mr. Osborne’s speech of the night before:
“On the morning after Mr. Sullivan was
named as a member of the Execflttve
Committee he told the men who delivered
soda water to him that a man employed
by the soda water concern was opposed
to him in politics and that unless he wag
discharged he would not buy any more
soda water from them. Is such a man a
fair Judge?”
With reference to th’s ftatement de
ponent says that he Is the proprietor of a
soda water factory and has been deliv
ering soda water to Mr. John J. Sulli
van for Ihe last twenty years, and that
to his knowledge Mr. Sullivan has not
dealt with any other soda water dealer
other than deponent.
Deponent denies in toto the statement
made by Mr. Osborne that Mr. Sullivan
had slated to him. that a man employed
by the soda water concern was opposed
to him (Bullivan) In politics and that un
less he was discharged he would not buy
any more soda water from him.

Blood Troubles: S
As the blood contains all the elements necessary to sustain life, it is impor- "'Sib/®**
taut that it be kept free of all impurities, or it becomes a source of disease, MBSQurS*Saa
poisoning instead of nourishing the body, and loss of health is sure to follow. m
Some poisons enter the blood from without, through the skin by absorption, or (Ajt
inoculation ; others from within, as when waste products accumulate in the
system and ferment, allowing disease germs to develop and be taken into the ao. ff-fi r>
circulation. While all blood troubles have one common origin, each has some itwo
peculiarity to distinguish it from the other. Contagious Blood Poison, Scrofula, /ajx & i BSB
Cancer, Rheumatism, Eczema and other blood diseases can be distinguished by
a certain sore, ulcer, eruption or inflammation appearing on the skin. Every' blood *
disease shows sooner or later on the outside and on the weakest part of the body, or where it finds the least resistance.
Many mistake the sore or outward sign for the real disease, and attempt a cure by the use of salves, liniments and other
external applications. Valuable time is lost and no permanent benefit derived from such treatment.
BLOOD TROUBLES REQUIRE BLOOD REMEDIES; the poison must be completely and pertna
nently eradicated the blood reinforced, purified and cleansed, or the disease goes deeper and saps the very life. Mercury,
potash and arsenic, the treatment usually prescribed in this class of diseases, are violent poisons, even when taken in small
doses never cure, but do much harm by adding another poison to the already overburdened, diseased blood.
S M S. S. S., Nature’s own remedy,’made of roots and herbs, attacks the disease ia
the blood, antidotes and forces out all impurities, makes weak, thin blood rich, strong
gjSuW'ilSjM and healthy, and at the same time builds up the general health. S. S. S. is the only
purely vegetable blood purifier known, ana the only' one that can reach deep-seated
blood" troubles. A record of 50 years of successful cures proves it to be a reliable,
. unfailing specific for all blood and skin troubles.

skilled physicians, who have made blood and skin diseases a life study, so if you have

Mr. P. H. Branch, who filled the posi
tion of cashier at the De Soto during the
winter season, Ims gone to Asheville, his
home, whither Mrs. Branch preceded him
some time ago. Mr. T. E. Mclver, room
clerk, will go to New York the latter part
of the week. Neither of these gentlemen
yet knows where he will be located dur
ing the summer, but their many friends in
Savannah and the patrons of the hotel,
with whom they are popular, hope they
may be again at the De Soto next season.
For several years they have been with the
hotel during the winters, and tourists
would miss them if they were not found
at their accustomed places.
