Life in NeW York
At the Yule Tide
NEWS IN COR DELE
AND DOOLY COUNTY
By MARY PATTEKSOX.
Town Praised by Visiting Seaboard
Air Lino Officials—Policeman Re
covers from Wounds.
NEW YORK, Deo. 17.—The first
fall of real snow of this season
covered all the available space and
spots in New York this week, and It
la a sight for Southern eyes to -see.
Down in Georgia the total lack of
preparation for a serious snow means
such discomfort In so many ways that
one’s eye for the beautiful losses Its
perspective, and with a snow storm
Is associated the saddest words of
tongue or pen, "The cook hasn’t come
this morning!" Up here It Is different,
because It is not the unexpected which
Is occurring, and for the first time In
my life, the "Beautiful Snow" poem
finds me In an appreciative or respon
sive mood. There was no snow storm,
If it is correct *o associate that word
with something wild and tempestuous,
but the myriad flakes fell noiselessly,
persistently, until before you realised
It,, the whole earth was blanketed In
white, reminding one of some women
who by persistent gentleness get their
own +ay without apparent effort.
Then, even before the snow had ceased
to fall, the shovelers were at work on
the front steps and sidewalks, and any
discomfort to pedestrians was reduced
minimum. Now there is nothing
to do hut to "admire the view," as the
Walrus said to the Carpenter, and I
never before realised so completely the
beautifying effects of a pure white
background. Everything looks pret
tier than before, and even an ordinary
red delivery wagon becomes a glori
fied spot of color ngalnst a dazzling
surface. While the snow was falling,
each woman on the street had a touch
of chinchilla about her costume—ap
parently—more becoming than the
kind that the furriers sell; and now
that the sun Is shedding a glory over
looks commonplace. True the chin
chilla above mentioned has been as
quickly lost as gained, just brushed
off, but every costumo is more attrac
tive than before, and black gowns are
blacker, brown ones softer, and blue
ones more charming. As for red, it is
the most royal and appears so vivid,
one inspired. She is a slight, delicate
looking woman, and wore the uniform
dress of her order, with a long white
scarf across one shoulder, and even
in this trying gnrb she was the most
graceful woman I have ever seen. Her
pose of head and figure, her gestures,
every movement when she stood and
spoke, and her attitude when she sat
and listened, were so full of grace that
it fascinated even more than beauty
could have done. She made one think
of Joan of Arc. and under her leader
ship the prediction can be safely made
that the Salvation Army wifi win great
victories in Us battles against evil.
The first great work Miss Booth will
undertake Is to raise money enough to
buy a piece of land In the slum district
known ns "Cherry Hill," and to build
thereon a great house. The basement
Is to be fitted ns a laundry, for poor
women to come nnd do washing for
themselves and their families, or to
make money by doing It for other peo
ple. The main floor is to be used ns
a hall In which meetings are to be held
the next floor given over to sewing
machines which may be used freely by
the women of tho neighborhood for
their family sewing or for doing seam
stress work to earn n livelihood,
the top floor babies are to be taken
cure of while their mothers are work
ing away from home. No one who
heard Miss Booth talk, could doubt
that she would have this house built
before mnny months. Meanwhile she
Is putting her henrt Into the Christmas
work, and making plans to give a din
ner at which twenty-five thousand
poor people will be her guests.
The afternoon after her meeting at
Carnegie Hall, she was present at one
of the halls of the Salvation Army, the
presiding genius at a sale of fancy
work and useful articles. Miss Helen
Gould wns present both times, nnd has
n very evident admiration for this
other woman who is giving her life to
less fortunate people. Miss Gould Is
much better to look upon than any of
her pictures represent her to be, and
has soft, pretty, dark hair, with blue
(flowing. beautiful, wherever a da.h of Kray eye * " nd "I veet «rreeelon.

It Is seen, that It may be said to have
"come into its own"—a kingdom cre
ated by the snow.
Much fun wan had the first snow
day, by those who were prepared to
run races In their sleighs to different
road houses around the city. Several
of these hostelrles offer baskets of
champagne as prizes to tho first per
sons who arrive through the snow,
and tho contest is a hot one, paradox
ical as it sounds.
Tho Big Shops.
The big shops are now open at night,
and will be until the holiday buying Is
over, but the crowds in the day tirno
do not grow thinner, us might seeni to
be the result, I have always said that
for everything worth seeing or having
In Near York, a price had to bo paid,
but it must bo owned that at this sen-
son the town is full of free shows.
The large department store compete
with each other In mnklng of their
windows wonderful. Making pictures,
some of them panoramas Illustrating
historical happenings, such as "De
Soto Discovering the Mississippi'
with wonderfully life-like figures to
represent the principal characters.
From that ns a start, there is a long
list of attractions, one window being
given over to Humpty Dumpty and
All the Kings Men, hut of course
Santa Claus Is never forgotten and is
suprome in this, the season of
reign. Not only the eyes are pleased,
but the ears as well, for fine bands
keep up the spirits of the shoppers
to an amazing degree. "Christman"
appears written on the brain of each
person one meets, and let us hope that
It Indexes tho gracious feeling In the
heart. The merchants do not presume
to have an advertisement without
sort of "Christmas aift!" ring to it,
and every possible and Impossible
thing is suggested as a present to the
one you love—from a step-ladder to
a set of furs, a carpet sweeper to a
diamond ring.
Excange of Cards.
An American woman who hns lived
mnny years in England, tells me of a
pretty custom which Is not an obser
vance yet In this country. Pleasant
friendships, w^ilcli are yet not of such
intimate nature as to warrant the
sending of gifts, are recognized at
Christmas by the sending of cards de
signed by the tasto of the person from
whom they come. The curds are of
the prevailing fashionable color, or of
the shado most affected by tho woman
who orders them, and have on them
her name engraved from the same
plate she uses on her visiting card.
Then, also engraved, Is a verse either
original or from some famous writer,
of sentiment appropriate to the sea
son. These cards have about them
of stiffness and more of lndlvltl
uallty than the ones you buy "ready
made"’ and are sent by "po*t.'V
person frequently receiving as many
as two hundred.
I asked a French woman how Christ
mas was observed In her country, and
she replied: "But Mademoiselle, there
Is no Christmas in France! It is all
the New Year! It Is then that!
send gifts, nnd we do not know the
Christmas of America and of Ger
many!"
Gen. Booth’s Daughter.
Miss Evangeline Booth, daughter of
General Booth, of the Salvation Army,
has Just come to New York from Can
ada, and has taken the leadership of
the United States branch of the Sal
vat ion Army. She was given an on
thusiastlc welcome at a great meeting
in Carnegie Hall, and In her answer
to the speeches of greeting spoke like
Mrs. Hatty Green.
Mistress Hetty Green, who Is not
celebrated for her domestic qualities,
hns expressed an opinion that
man’s place Is at home, and thnt It Is
all-important for her to understand
ooklng. Mrs. Green says that sho
never left her home for the business
world, until her husband’s health had
failed, so that sho was In a meusuro
forced into n man’s sphere of work.
She fails to mention that she had in
hcrited a competency nnd might have
lived a quiet life on the interest of her
money. I fear that the famous Hetty
Is only finding an excuse for following
the bent of her undoubted genius ns a
business man." It is funny, though,
co hear her say thnt women think too
much of dress, for If some women do
go to one extreme she certainly goes
to the other. She is worth her millions
nnd wears skirts with grease spots on
them.
A. M. E. CONFERENCE.
Interesting Session • of the Georgia
Body—Sermons Todsy.
MILLEN, Ga.. Deo. 17.—'The third
and fourth days’ session of tho Oenr
gia conference of the A. M. K. church
closed tonight.
Tho greater part of yesterday was
taken up examining men for the first,
second, third nnd fourth years’ stu
dies and for deacons, and elders’ or
ders. Several were recommended for
elders' orders—none for deacons.
Yesterday Rev. O. II. Payne, former
ly ft member of the A. M. E. church,
asked the privilege tp rejoin tho con
ference. It developed thnt an Inde
pendent conference hud been organ
ized In Florida and Rev. Payne hnd
been elected bishop. .
Home fenrod thnt If Bishop Payno
were received that he would have to
be recognized as a bishop. Bishop Tur
ner ruled otherwise and after teasing
"tho bishop" n little he was restored
to his former standing.
Prof. M. M. Ponton of Atlanta called
attention to an Associated Press dis
patch telling of the work of John C.
Martin of New York and resolutions
of commendation were passed. Bishop
Turner told of the labors of Dr. R. D.
Stinson In the North and East for
Morris Brown college, and a collection
was taken for him.
One of the presiding elders present
ed a Baptist minister who bad accept
ed the Methodist discipline, for admis
sion Into the conference. A storm
broke loose when Dr. Sherman asked
whether or not he would be received
on equal footing with the elders of the
A. M. K. churtti. Drs. Lee, Johnson. T.
N. M. Smith, R. 8. M. Taylor, J. O.
Robinson. R. D. Stinson and others
argued the matter, and the man was
finally received Bishop Turner was
requested to present the matter to the
general board of bishops for their de
cision.
Dn. Stinson, M. O. Alexander and
E. W. Lee. ail officers of Morris Brown
college, delivered speeches Friday
night.
The entire day today was taken up
reading reports and examining the
character of the ministers.
There will be nine sermons preach
ed at the A. M. E. church tomorrow
and many at other churches. A com
mission was appointed looking to the
division of territory and the creation
of another conference.
CORDELE. Ga., Dec. 17.—Charles
. Stewart, assistant general passen
ger agent, and \V. P. Scruggs, travel
ing passenger agent, both of the Sea
board Air Line railroad, spent yester
day and today in Cordele. Both Mr.
Scruggs and Mr. Stewart were en
thusiastic in their praise of Cordele.
They spoke of the remarkable devel
opment of Cordele as a passenger
point. They say that the sales of tick
ets over the Seaboard at Cordele easi
ly place the city in third place ns tho
best passenger point on the line of tho
Sesbonrd in Georgia. Only two places
are ahead of Cordele—Atlanta and Sa
vannah. Mr. Scruggs says thnt Sa
vannah captures second place by only
a narrow’ margin. The Seaboard lino
reaches many sinnll cities of Import
ance In the state, nnd always gets Its
share of travel. It will be seen by this
that Cordele is making good when It
lays claim to the honor of being the
gateway to South Georgia.
Mr. Stewart nays that he hns never
seen a place where there w’os ns much
travel as there is In Cordele on all tho
roads that touch tho city. Ho says
that one’would think there was some
gathering of unusual Importance In
progress to pass here on any day. Tho
union station Is crowded every hour
for trains.
Policoman Recover*.
Policeman J. A. Dorman, w'ho was
shot In half a dozen different places
while engaged In o gambling raid ear
ly in October, hns recovered nnd today
donned his blue suit nnd took up tho
club. Mr. Dorman hns not thoroughly
recovered, but Is in fit condition to do
about as good police duty as ever, and
he Is recognized as one of the best of
(leers on the Cordele force.
Mr. Dorman says he Is very thank
ful for tho many courtesies shown him
by his friends generally and the city
council. Eight of the gamblers who
were In the party who were shooting
at Mr. Dorman have been captured.
There were fifteen or twenty In tho
house when tho rnid wen made.
After New Churoh.
W. It. Butler of Lilly, spent today In
Cordele getting subscriptions to assist
in building a Methodist church at his
little town. Cordele subscribed libe

The church, when .completed will cost
$1,000 or more. The committee in
charge of building tho church is ns
follows: D. T. Forehand, II. B. Fore
hand, J. E. McGough, E. \V. Roberts
and W. R. Butler.
The new church will be one of tho

of the rapidly growing of muny of the
