THE AMERICUS WEEKLY TIME5-RECORDER DECEMBER 15. 1910 BURIAL OF MRS. EDDY NOT MARKED BY GRIEF. Simplicity'Marks Funeral of [Noted Woman. Boston. December 9.—'Th*> followers of Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy, the founder of the Christian Science church, parted with ti?r visible form at a funeral that was marked with impp'dclty and lack of osteusation that yielded no expressions of sorrow, r: IcaFt not by -her followers. Clifford P. Smith, first reader of the brother Church', read the greater part cf lire service, .prepared by himself, consisting of selections from the Bible, co-relative passages from Mrs. Eddy’s hr ok. "Sciences and Health." and n •prayer. He was assisted by Mrs. Carol Hoyt Powers, the aecoml render, who ren dered Mrs. Eddy’s poem, "A Mpther’s Evening Prayer,” with sweet and ten der expression. The service lasted only eighteen minutes. There was no eulogy, no sobbing ex cept by the young granddaughter, Mary Baker Glover. Those who wished to look for the Saat time on the face of the leader saw the small, delicate face of a wo man who looted sixty, instead of minery, and wfcose expression was sin gularly peaceful and showed no «lgn of suffering. Eighteen carriages followed the hearse to Mount Auburn cemetery In Watertown. HOTEL HAS A ESCAPE. Bad Blaze In Screven House at Savannah.

Ga., December 9.—Fire that started In the basement of the iScteven House was- discovered at •V2j o’clock this morning and before the arrival of -the Are department .a response to an alarm from box SI smoke was Issuing in great volumes from the hotel. It appeared as If the hotel was in danger of being destroyed by Are and t-vo .patrolmen with tin assistance of bell boys aroused the sleeping guests. Some of them had already been wak ened by the smoke. In their night clothes both men and women made their way to the hotel! oAlce, or to ttie parlor Boot. The patrolmen -were blinded by j smoke in their efforts to wake the guests of til ehouse, and the conse quences would probably have been se rious had not the firemen conquered the Aames as quickly as they did.

Atlanta, Decembe 9.—In order that future governor* of Georgia may enter upon their term of office on the first of the year, Gov.-elect Hoke Smith will recommend to the legislature next summer that six months be lopped off his term of two years, so that successor can be Inaugurated January 1st. The governor-elect is strongly the opinion that the interim between the election In October and the inau guration of the chief executive the fol lowing June is too long and should be reduced at least six months. There are several reasons advanced by Gov Smith which make this change nec essary. Among them are the following: First. The man elected as governor does not serve for eight months sfter his election and in the meantime there are two men who are treated on prac tically the same plane a3 governor. Second. The inauguration in June breaks right into the middle of the year’s work. The fiscal years should be from January to January, thus end ing with the calendar year. At the present the new governor takes hold of his duties right in th emiddle of the tax collecting period and i s absolut ly tat sea regarding the financial su ms of the state. Third.
