■ 1 __ ments of spring goods, we can only claim satisfying completeness in our stocks of wash goods, trimmings for

important subjects.
Today we are calling attention to some of the new trimmings and are telling you about the throwovers, silk
gloves, neck fixings and belts. w *

nal dealt with contributions which It
alleged had been made to Mr. Jerome’s
campaign fund during his recent con
test for re-election as district attorney

terest, he claimed, of a local street
railway company. Tlllinghast la now

COTTAGE BURNED
THIS MORNING.
A three-room cottage, in the ex
treme southeastern portion of the city,
occupied by negroes, caught fire about
2 o'clock tills morulug, and before the
fire department could reach the scene,
burned to the ground.
The cottage was the property of
Mrs. Jessie Hall. The loss amount?
to about $700.- There was no insur
ance on the place.
Tlte house, although within the cor
porate limits of the city, was some
thing like 3,000 feet from the nearest
Are plug, and It would have required
practically every foot of hose owned
by the city to stretch a line to the
burning cottage. As it was, the de
partment was notified too^late, but
had the laddies reached there sooner,
they would have been almost useless,
with the nearest fre plug ho far away.
The firemen devoted their efforts to
save the neighboring houses.

Atlanta, Ga., March 13.—This after

of Burrlll Patterson, the young Heard
county man, who is under sentence of
death for killing a man named Stew
art. Mrs. Avis Boyce, Mrs. Dixon aud
other Catholic ladles of the city who
have interested themselves in the case
of Patterson, have secured the ser
vices of Col. Reuben Arnold, oue of
the, best lawyers In the state, to look
after the young man’s interests. It is
claimed that Mack Patterson, father
of Burrlll, forced him to kill Stewar:,
and that the elder Patterson had an
abnormal Influence over his son, forc
ing him to do his bidding much alter
the manner of a person hypnotized.

THE DIVINE SARAH
IN SAVANNAH.
8pecial to The Herald.
Savannah, Ga., March 13.—“The Di
vine” Sarah Bernhardt appeared in Sa
vannah last night In Dumas’ play,
“Camille.’’ She did not appear in the
regular theatre, but played in a skat
ing rink instead. About 1,200 Savqn-
nahians saw her at $3 a .seat, and
despite the fact that the production
was in French, they seemed to enjoy
it
The'divine one’s receipts were some
what <5ut into by the fact that the min
isters of the city have been firing at
“Camille” pretty steadily for the past
week or more, because of its immor
ality.
' One of the local papers put up a
job on the great Sarah yesterday af
ternoon. They happened to have a re
porter on the paper of the same name
as the actress, and sent him to inter
view her. When she saw the name on
the card she hastened to have him
enter her presence and when he got
in sight she threw a bunch of French
at him that would have stopped a
French clock. As it was all Choctaw
to the American reporter with the
Gaspard name he came near retreat
ing. He stood his ground, though, and
it is a question as to which was the
more disappointed.

W. E. FIELDS.
Special to The Herald.
Savannah, Ga., March 13.—The lat
est political gossip in Savannah is that
Capt. R. J. Davant will become presi
dent of the Citizens’ Marching Club
the organization which succeeded th<
Citizens’ Club several years ago, anc
of which Mr. A. A. Lawrence is nov
president.
Mr. Davant declines to talk aboui
his intentions in this connection, it k
known, however, that a faction in the
club, and a faction which it is though:
controls, Is very anxious to have hln
go at the head of the organization, anc
he has agreed to talk It over with cer
tain parties. Until something definite
is done, however, neither side will saj
anything. Captain Davant has occu
pled a rather independent attlture li
local politics during the last three 01
four years, and if he should accept the
presidency of the Citizens’ Club l
would add considerable strength t(
the organization.
Mr. :W. W. Osborne’s friends nov
say that he does not Intend to relin
finish his political activity, despite hi
entrance into business.
