Tble was decided by Judge Griggs yes- teray wh:n be passed sentenca on Char ley Can's murderer in the euperur oourt room at 10 o'clock. It was not gsneralty known that court would be convened yesterday morning; In fact 11 was thought that the day bet ,g a legal holiday no court would bo held and that Allen, who irna convicted ot a Iste hour on Wednesday night by the verdict of the jury, would not be sen tenced until today, but yeeterday morn- Ing Judge Griggs convened court at 10 o'clock and ordered Allen brought before him. When (his wt* dona ho told Allen to stand up, which Allen promptly did, looking like a veritable giant os he faced the judge with n stolid look that, white by no mesne defiant, appeared to ue that of * man who ha d been brought to that point ot Indifference where he did not care whether he waa to llvo one day or a hundred. Judge Grlggi then paced the sentence of death on Allen and named tho day for the execution ts January 10, U9G, the execution to be private. Allen turned » shade or two paler when the judge passed sentence, hut otherwise he showed no emotion. Afterward, how ever, he was visibly affected, which was In all probability caused by the demon strations of grief by bis relatives who were present In the court room. After the sentence Allen wae carried back to jail and enjoyed the excellent Thanksgiv ing dinner prepared by Jailer Nat Bird- song, as the following note to tho Tele, graph will show: “To the Editor of the Telegraph: It you will kindly give a small space In your paper, we would like to state to those interested that the Thenksglvlng dinner given by Jailer Nat Birdsong was without a doubt a* good as any dinner eerved In any hotel or private family In the city of Macon, and we can aasure you that it waa appreciated by all. From personal observation we believe that some In the jail would surely not have fared as well outside, Mr. Birdsong's heart Is In the right place and ha always doss all he can to make .things as pleasant as possi ble for any who are unfortunate enough to become prisoners In Bibb county Jail.

"TUB lit.VCIv CROOK." -Tbs Grand 8p«ctacl« WU1 Bo rresentoc at tbs Academy Tonight. The coming to this city tonight of tht fit in cHs Siw-cla-'l* "Th* Black Crook" wtt uv«lt to the old tlmcra “Tho Blocl Crook" of 1MK. with Its academic pro- micr* Us full skirted coryphees and It: untidy driM»cd llgurnntc*. and who laal year gawd upon the xpcctacular carni val at tho Academy of MuiUx New York, with Us succession of scenes are moved to reflection on the change In the time*. Prior to the Initial production of Charlci Bair**' spectacle, there had never bee? * regular hallct of any »lxe In this coun try. In I a Montes bad flitted acro.n th< stag* and F»nny Kllsler had dsneed * few characteristic steps, but a com,"!,' Pallet with prime asajlutn, secomlt ant ballerlnt was unknown. The little thi public had seen of women In tight* w-fli oonfllMd to the performance of “Mnsep- ],a." tn which either Adah Isaac Menken a Kate Fisher or a Leo Hudson wa Isshe.l In the back of a wild, untune* Bargary need. The —»"r can b Imagined when all at once tho stage at Nlhlos Garden, New Y’ork. was niled with what seemed to be myriads of wo- men In short skirts, lu trunks an.1 In breeches, it waa n bcautttul spectacle and It appealed to tho sen see ns -no the atrical performance ever had before. The present revival I* supertx In fact It 1* mjperior to the tnltlal producUon. Tho allegorical ballets are at) gorge.ni», an those with an Illustrative slgnlncancc are mast entertaining. Tho Kuropcar moclaliles are novel, and In point of tru< excellence outrank anything as yet brought Into thu country. It ts a hugs undertaking to start a Urge company cn tour, and Its management deserves a great deal of credit for d:splaylox such energy. It will b« seen In nil of It* regal splendor tonight at the Aoadsmy ot Music. One of tbs shrewdest rascals and all- round crooks that has ever graced * cell was arrested by Officers Kimbrell and Smallwood yesterday morning about 4 o'clock and placed in a cell tn the police atallon. The circumstances leading to the arrest of the crook, who gave hi* name as Ed Full, make an Interesting story. Inas much ss a member of the Georgia legis lature from Echols county won mixed up In tho case and that the arrow purely accidental so far as knowledge ol the man the police arrested was con earned. It was just about 4 o’clock yesterday morning when Officers Smallwood and Kimbrell heard some one calling “police." On hastening In the direction from whence the cries came the officers found three men, all drunk, and each wanting the other arretted. This waa In the neighborhood of the comer of Fourth and Mulberry streeta and a few questions pul to the men brought out the Information that all three had engaged In a row at the Reeves house on Fourth street. The men were carried to the police elation, where they gave their munca aa Ed Paul, H. J. Collier and J. F. Johnson. After being searched they were all three locked up. Collier told Sergeant Long at the po lice atatlon that be woe a member of the legislature from Echols county and a pass over the Central railroad found on hla person substantiated his statement, tic also had a very big pistol In his pocket, and opposite his name were put- the charges of drunk, disorderly conduct and concealed weapons. On JohnsoRfs person were found three railroad passes .one bearing the name ot Hon. G. \V. Cureton over the Seaboard Air Line, another to Hon. A. J. Arnold over the Savannah, Amerkms and Mont, com cry railroad, and the other to Hon. W. 8. West over the Central railroad. All of the passes expire next month. On Paul's person was found a little ol everything, including a whisk broom, shaving outfit, with a rarer, brush nnd strap, a bunch containing about fifty keys, u watch, railroad rrrap and numer ous other things ■ .- All three of the men were drunk, hut Johnson, who appeared to be In better shape than the others, said the row started In tho Reeves house when he caught Paul trying to rob Collier. Ac cording to Collier, who talked to a re porter, ho and Collier met Paul at a questionable place and It was not long before he had ingratiated himself In tholr favor. He told them he know where there was a nice place where they could sleep nil night for 'A cents, nnd they wonl tvlth him to the Reeves house. There h« Invited them to hla room and began set ting up the wine and other beverages. Soon they wore all drunk, unless It wa* that Paul waa playing off, and John«on nnd Collier wore about half asleep when Johnson discovered Paul goln gthrouyl Colllor’s poekots. He jumped on him and a free for all tight ensued. When Detectives Patterson and Jenk. Ins saw Paul In the police elation, yce- terday morning they knew ho was n man they hod been looking for. Imme diately they went to work, and In a ehorl while found nearly all of tho wlnee, whis ky and cigars stolen from Carroll's hat It* his room at the Reeves home, and also oilier articles they believed to hav« been stolen. When these disclosures wcr< made Chief Butner ordered the prleone to be more thoroughly searched. When this was done US and a gold watch were found In hla socks The watch waa Iden tified as belonging to ColUer, who alsc claimed the til. Later an Mr. Ellis oi tho Ellis house callod and Identllled Paul as a man who had flopped with him ana stolen the voiles of a gudst. Paul refuses to toll anything njbout him self except to say that ho bought the wlnee, otc., from a negro. The detectives say he has a number of aliases, but that hie right name Is Butler, and that h< came from Canada. Collier nnd Johmon were lined » oacl for drunk and disorderly und Collier was committed to the city court for carrying concealed weapons. Paul l* held on charges of burglary, larceny from the house and larceny from tho person. Ho Is now In Jail. 4 ■ 1IANKI.N-IRVLN. A Qu'at MMUUfls ot Owsleuncy i*ur- tana gi on Wulonsluy. Mr. B.

W0EN OUT. “Yes, things in the church are dal!, all at a standstill, It seems to mo. I think Parson Brown ought to open up a little.’’ Mary and I were sitting on the front porch Sabbath afternoon. Mary was read* lng sensational stories in a Sunday paper, sometimea reading Aloud to mo. I was Httlo Interested and finally began dozing, but managed to got wide awake before Mary indulged in the foregoing remark. After a moment’s thoughtful hesitation Iromarkod: “Well, I must say I’m get ting tired of thu pamo old thing Sunday after Sunday, tho same face, tho same voice, the game gesture and sometimes tho samo Illustrations. Now, when I was nt Spencorvlllo, whero they had just re ceived a now minister, thcra was ao much going on nnd everything so lively.

It all scorned to make so much good fooling’’— “That’s it,” said Mary. “Thoro is no foelingatall hero. Parson Brown is a good enough mnn, but lie is so slow—posi tively so Blow. It sometimes comes over me, John”—then Mary lowered her voice, whether It was in fear of being heard by tho leaves of the applo tree near by, or by tho robins building their nest in tho tree top, or by the old dog Madgo that lay on tho mat by tho window, I cannot say— “that perhaps it would be best .for us to havo a chango of pastors, though I would not liko to be tho one to start the Idea In tho parish.” ‘‘No, indeed,” I said. “But still he has been hero a long time.” “Yes, and getting a trifle old, a little worn—shelf worn, if wo were to use a mercantile term. A younger man, now, would liven up things. Wo could pay him a better salary and give things a new start,” answered Mary. “Thero is no fault to bo found with Brother Brown, though,” 6ald I, for I could not find it In my hoart to hoar him rundown. “Not a bit, not a bit. It’s only that—that perhaps his usefulness hero la at an und. NVhat do you say, Mary, to driving over to hear Parson Jones this morning just for a change? He Is more my stylo, beats and wakes folks %p, so they say.” “Whnt,” said Mary, "clear over to Plpetownf” It was ton miles away. “Yes,” I said. “I’ll hitch up in a few minutes, and we can mako tho trip in an hour.” Mary mado no objection—in fact, rather enjoyed th6 6uggostion—and in a little while we wero spinning on our way. As wo neared Plpetown wo saw many people on their way to church. “Great many people out for morning service*,” said L “Our folks do not turn out this way.” “Parson Jones Is a man that draws,” •aid Mary, “keeps up tho interest in the church, you sec.” Thero was quite a crowd in tho entry, and as wc wero waiting for some on© to iho\v us a seat wo overheard a man say: “Yon'll hear something worth hearing today. Mr. (I couldn't get hold of tho name, though I tried) is going to preach. ” I looked at Mary. I waa afraid sho had set her heart on hearing Mr. Jones, but as far as I was concerned I didn't mind hearing a stranger, especially if ho waa liko what they said, for they were talking right on. “He’s a strong preacher—yes, strong, that's just the word. Wo are always glad when w© get him on an exchange. Won der he has staid so long in the country. He's none of your hop and jump sort, does not waste any force in hammering out sparks,_bui goes straight to the truth ami drives' 16 homo'and cITnchos it—that is just tho word, clinches it.” I could see tho folks wero cxpeotlng a little something uncommon by the way thoy looked as they settled into their scats. I was looking about a little to see if I know anybody present, for I had fre quently boon to Plpetown. I did not look toward the pulpit till I heard tho minister’s voice, and then I al most jumped from my seat as I stared at him. Th6n I stared at Mary, and Mary stared at mo. It was Parson Brown, as suro as you live. If It had not been in church, I should havo laughed right out to soo Mary’s blank look. But I sobered down. Then I could not holp observing how tho pooplo .listened. It was very plain that thoy oon- siderod Parson Brown a groat preacher. Their intorest set mo to noticing him moro carefully. I finally concluded that whilo ho was not a handsomo man it is not often you sco a more scholarly face or hoar moro earnest words. Then I noticed tho docp lines of caro on his face, mado largoly by tho heavy church burdens ho was obliged to carry. I thought of tho children ho had baptizod, of tbe funerals ho had conducted, of tho sorrowing hearts ho had comforted, of the many kind and helpful words ho had spoken, and as X kept on thinking I felt tears swell in my eyes and run down on my chooks. When ho camo to his text, Mary gave mo a nudge, for, if you will bcliovo mo, it was tho same wo had heard tho Sunday beforo. But I am willing to confess that it was mostly now, for I did nofc listen well before. In fact, I had got Into tho way of thinking that Brothor Brown’s sermons wore not edifying to mo. I saw* the man we heard in tho entry nod his head, as muoh as to say: “Didn’t I toll you so? That’s ono of his clinchers.” After the sermon was finished nnd tho hand shaking time earn© I think Mary and I were just a littlo proud to havo folks know that Parson Brown was our minis ter. Wo didn’t speak a word for moro than half tho way home, and then I said: “I aay, Mary, there’s such a thing as going farther and faring worse.” “Well,” said Mary, “if that’a what you mean, wa have been faring just nbout tho same.” “No, that Isn’t what I mean. Mary, how much bigger salary ought we to raiso for Brother Brown? Yos, it ought to be done. Theso things need stirring up, and I for ono am going to stir them up.” Hero I jerked tho lines till the horso fairly jumped. “I am going to tako hold with tho pastor with greater heartiness than over before.
