The Maris curated the Dragoon in the
eecond race y*xterday afternoon, winning
the cup from the Savannah Yacht Club.
The race was o much prettier one than
that of the before, nn<l the Dragoon
showed up coiiti'lrrably better. The fol
lowing is the sommary of the time by the
two boats: *, , ' .
Dragoon entwed the lino nt the etnrt

Bt 1:06:15, I:08:V5 was her real time, and
she w'as thereby handicappe d 53 seconds in
addition to the time allowance given the
Dragoon, which was 4 minutes, 13Va sec
onds.
Maris rounded the Cabbage Island stake
boat at 3:01:30.
Dragoon rounded nt 3:04:50.
(Maris rounded the Joe’s Cut etakeboat
at 3:35:08.
Dragoon rounded at 3:20:35.

Dragoon rounded at 4:05:20.

Dragoon’s corrected time, 3 hours, 51
minutes and 31*3 seconds.
Maris beat the Dragoon G minutce, 3." j
seconds, corrected time.
Closer Than on First Hare,
The tbrreeted time by which the Maris
beat the Dragoon day before
was 7 minutes, 66% seconds. As the beat
yesterday was only by 6 minutes, 1% sec
onds. the Dragoon sailed a hotter race by
1 minute and 55 seconds than on the day
beforehand the hearts of Savannah en
thusiasts. since their boat could not wrest
victory from the contest, wire cheered to
that extent.
On the whole, the day was better for rac
ing. For a short while there was but very
little wind, but during most of the race
there was a good, stiff breeze that ca
reened the yachts and sent them flying on
their mission. There wore more interest
ing features than the day before. For one
thing, admirers of the Dragoon had a
chanea to see her in the b ad for once,
as she got away before the Marls and
maintained her advantage for a mile or
more.
A far smaller crowd witnessed the race.
The defeat had apparently allayed the en
thusiasm of Savannahians to n wonderful
extent, and the flotilla that followed the
racers embraced not oik half the boats
that were out the day before. As on the
first day theweath<y was threatening, and
rain seemed imminent before the race.
As on the day before, the Dragoon left
the Yacht Club under her own sail f< r
the starting line, three miles down W il
mington river. The Maris followed under
tow* of the Winona, the naphtha auxiliary
yacht. About the same time the majority
of the sailboats that were to follow the
racers got away, leaving the steamers to
come later.
The Clifton was the Yacht Club’s steam
er for the day, and a number of its guests
were aboard. Col, Merritt XV. Dixon,
chairman of the Regatta Committee, was
in charge, and a band of music contrib
uted to the pleasure of the party. On the
way from the city the Clifton got stuck
in the mud in Wilmington river and hod
to wait for the tide to float her off, but
t?he was on hand for the start of the
racers t The Alpha was run as an excur
sion steamer, but did not have very many
aboard. The buoy tender Wistaria also
followed the race, having a number of
invited guests aboard.
Through the courtesy of Capt. C. K.
Gillette, government steamer Analer
was placed ax the disposal of the Sailing
Committee for the day. Aboard her
were Chairman Frank Jones, Mr. Frank
Lathrop and Mr. H. D. Stevens of the
Sailing Committee, Mr. W, D. Simkins,
Mr. G. Noble Jones, Col. T. S. Wylly
and Mr. Rittenhouse Moore, timekeepers;
Judge A. H. MaoDonell, Commodore
Hughes of the Carolina Yacht Club and
a representative of the Morning News.
At about 12:30 the Angler left the Yacht
Club, the race being scheduled to start
at 1 o’clock. Not long after the arrival
at the starling point off Turner’s Rock,
where the rival yachts were discovered
under sail, the preparatory blast from
the Angler’s whistle was sound* and, and the
boats began their jockeying for u- position
and the start.
Dragoon Oil! First,
The signal for the start was sounded
at 1:06:15, and ttt 1:07:11 the Dragoon got
across the line in just about such a
breeze as the start was made the day be
fore. The Maris had trouble In following,
having, apparently, miscalculated the five
minutes allowed. She could noDget across
within the two minutes, and tire 53 sec
onds lost were charged against her.
Beating along In the teeth of the wind,
the boats both adopted the plan of short
tacks in order to keep away from the
wooded shore of YVilmlngton Island. Tack
after tack was watched, and it seemed
that the Dragoon was pointing consider
ably better titan the day before. Her
speed, though, was not enough to keep
her away from the Marls, and, white on
the port tack, the Dragoon passed Just
astern of the Charleston b at. The Dra
goon had not maintained her lead for
long, but while she had it, interest itt tlie
race was increased.
The wind continued hrirk all the way to
the Cabbage Island etakeboat. which the
Maris rounded 3 minutes ami 20 seconds
ahead of the Dragoon Th< Dragoot had
made a gain of 40 seconds over tlie run
down of tlie day before. Then both boats
gi t their balk on Jlba out and
i down their main jibs. Ruin foil s: , lily
■ all th. way to thi Cut
' which v, .ii i
utes and 27 seconds ahead of the Dra
goon. which lost 1 minute and 7 .. , .. t ,
on the stretch, against X minute an l
aeconds before.
On the run back to tlie Cabbage Island
siakeboat the Dragoon lost heavily, tie
wind having died away almost < onipb ( 1\
She rounded the boat 9 minutes and 2)
seconds after the Marls, having lost 6
minutes and 13 seconds. The day before
she had lost also, hut this proved the
critical point In yesterday's rare, and.
bad the Dragoon sailed the stretch as
well as the Marts, she would have won.
Then started the rare homeward. The
Marla led after rounding Ihe boat, and
her pace killed the hopes of the Dragoon's
admirers. Who did not expect their boat
ta ahftw. the speed she. developed. The
racers broke out their spinnakers ar.d
had all sail flying, and the run home was
fast. The Maris made it in one hour and
45 seconds, and the Dragoon in one hour
| and 37 seconds, gaining on the run, bcat-
I ing the Maris eight seconds. This was
I largely due to the fact that the wind,
which was over the quarter, freshened
greatly, and the rear boat brought it up
with her.
Finished Amid Applause,
It was amid compliments of whistles and
cheers that the Maris crossed the line, and
then tlie Dragoon was watched. She was
pushed along by the breeze that she was
bringing with her, and it seemed pretty
sure that she would not be beaten as badly
as eome of the Charlestonians had bet.
It was o foregone conclusion that the
Maris would w in the race, and It was only
on the time that any betting to speak of
was done. She came faster than had the
Maris, and as she drew near the line, it
became apparent to those on board the
judges’ boat that the time by which the
race of the day before had been won would
be decreased. The event proved the truth
of this.
After the Dragoon crossed all the craft
headed for the Yacht Club, where the chal
lenge cup, which had been held for two
years by the Savannah Yacht Club, was
pre seated by Commodore W. W. Starr to
Commodore Hughes of the Carolina Yacht
Club. Commodore Starr said the race had
been fairly won and spoke of the pleasure
it had given tho members of the
flub to have the Charleston
ians among them. Commodore Hughes
responded gracefully, saying the
conduct of the Savannahians had been
sportsmanlike, and that he hoped to see
them in Charleston next summer with a
boat that would force, the Carolina Yacht
Club to strain every nerve to beat. With
cheers for the Maris and Charleston, the
crowd ratified the presentation of the cup
and ar < • pted the victory of the Charles
ton boat.
Many comments were made upon the
excellent manner in which the races had
been managed. To the Sailing Committee
thi# success was largely due. and the
thanks of the club are extended the gen
tl< men.
Most of tho Charlestonians will get
away to-day. As there are to be no more
•r ‘ ts, interest for them has departed.
Tho Maris and the other yachts will leave
to-day or within a few days. The stay
of the Charlestonians has been enjoyed
by Savannahians, even, though the Maris
defeated the Dragoon.
GEORGIA'S M’-GRO BAPTISTS.
Question? Rl.setisscd In Their Stnto
(dii vent lon.
The Georgia Baptist State Convention ;
wound up its third flays’ session at *0:30 i
o'clock last night. The sessions have all |
been orderly and intelligent and signs of
progress have been seen. The influence
of Rev. K. K. Love, who was for many
years pastor of the cliruch in which the
session, are held, is apparent, and his
successor, JRev. C. S. Wilkins, B. D., of
Augusta, endeavored to carry out his
plans and policies. Upon the death of
Rev. Love Rev. Wilkins became presi
dent, and consequently the acknowledged
leader of the negro Baptist family; and,
notwithstanding ambition for promotion
is not a lost art in such conventions, the
delegation suppressed every selfishness,
and voted unanimously to keep their new
president and leader and his entire cab
inet, together with the board of directors,
in power and authority for another year.
The delegation to the convention is large
and interest in its w-ork unabating. It
represents tho industrious, credulous,
self-reliant, self-assertive element of the
negro Baptist family in Georgia—the type
of negro who believes that his race has
ability to do something for itself. The
one prevalent idea in the convention is
that the kind of co-operation which the
negro Baptistts receive from Northern
white societies is more injurious than
helpful to the negroes, in that the power
and authority for directing missionaries
and operating educational institutions
among them, reside, by the terms of co
operation. with the white society.
Another view taken by the convention
is that since the negro cannot control
and manage the institutions of learning
that his Northern white brethren have
established for him, and, that, since ne-
I tiroes will never learn to control educa
| tional institutions unless an opportunity
is afforded them to experiment, it wore
j infinitely wi&er and better for them to
leave the management of the schools built
I by the Northern institutions to these in
-1 stitutions, and to utilize and engage their
, forces in building educational institutions
1 which the negroes can manage.
• * r-* ' ' • ' - -
Tlie convent on 1? partial to the manner
in which the Southern white people make
contributions to the missionary and (du
rational work amon#? tho negroes; in mon
ey for their churches, schools and other
helpful institutions and that they confide
in the judgment, discretion, integrity and
ability of the negro to make the wisest
and most judicious disbursement of the
contributions thus made, not in any ease
appointing another white man to super
intend the distribution of their gifts. That
the determination to equip and manage,
some of the educational institutions, is
neither visionary nor spasmodic, is evi
denced by the fact that the convention
has bought a lot, in Macon, upon which
it has erected a SIO,OOO building, known
and designated as “the Central City Col
lege.” with a large campus for industrial
purposes, and under the proficient man
agement of Prof. W. E. Holmes, a classi
cal graduate of Atlanta Baptist College,
and a full-fledged member of the faculty
of that institution for sixteen years, has
recently closed its first year’s work with
a commendable success. The further fact
that $1,500 has been raised at this session
of the convention for the work at Macon
during the approaching college year, sup
plementing $3,000, which It has raised for
the same institution since October, 3899,
to the present meeting.
Yesterday’s session w*as given lo
womc n. The introductory sermon was
preached by Rev. N. IS. McCall Dublin,
on “Christ the Way.” l The welcome ad
dress by C. A. Love, was well delivered
| and equally well responded to by Mrs. Gar
; nett of Brunswick. The resolution on the
death of Nellie L. Cook, president oX the
Woman’s Convention, showed the high
esteem in which the deceased was held by
her associates. The foreign missionary
i secretary of national fame gave a talk on
“Mission.”
At the second day’s session, upon the
introduction of visitors, it developed that
lhere, were several co-operative agents
present, among them President George
Sale of the Atlanta "Baptist College; Dr.
C S. Brown, special agent >t’ th© Ameri
j can Baptist Homo Missionary Society;
! Rev. E. F. Johnson, General Educational
! missionary under the board. Besides these
j were the representatives of negro ability,
' Rev. It. H. Boyd, secretary of the Negro
National Baptist publishing board; Rev.
L. T. Jordan, secretary of foreign mis
; sions. and Rev. K. W. D. Isaacs, secretary
if th© National Baptist Young People’©
V nion.
I’tvsident Bale made some statements of
his work. President Holmes interrogated
him and many things were aired. Presi
dent Sale declared that be would vout’h
for tin work done at the Central City Col
lege by its president, and Prof. Nnbrit.
Hr. Brown presented his theme. He is
r< tutor of anecdotes. A cat. he remarked,
was own* and by a boy and Ids mother, the
former owning the tail. She stood on it
and the cot squealed. In this condition he
pictured the negro and the North.
Dr. Boyd spoke in a timely manner of
the unfair treatment of negro**? North,
and ably d* fended negro enterprise. Rev.
Isaacs dl- ected ©very argument of tho
-pecial agent. At ihe close the cat, tail
and all, bv common consent, was the ne
gro*? to own. control and wag. rather than
squeal as heretofore, his condition of ab
solute dependence has caused him to do.
Prof. M. W. Reddick of Americas made
a timely talk.

T. F. JOHNSON FOR CONGRESS.

REPI BLIC AN TICKET.
HI? Nomination by the Committee
Named nt the District Conven
tion In Febrnary Likely to Com
plicate the Situation In the Re
publican Fold—He way? lie Will
Make the Rare—lll? Letter of Ac
ceptance Forthcoming.
Kx-Collector of Customs Tomlinson F.
Johnson has been named as a Republican
candidate for Congress from the First
Congressional District. The nomination
was made yesterday afternoon by the
committee of five appointed at the Dis
trict Convention, in which the Boyle wing
of the party predominated, held Feb. 13
to take under consideration the selection
of a candidate for Congress, with author
ity to make the nomination.
Tho committee met in the office of the
chairman, Lawyer J imes H. Kinckle, the
other members being James M. Ferrebee,
secretary; 11. H. Bourke, F. R. Sims and
J. E. Warren. Mr. Johnson’s name was
tho only one under consideration and a
committee was appointed to no ify him
of his nomination and escort him to the
meeting. This was done and ho
ihe nomination verbally, stating that he
would give a. reply in writing at a later
date.
\Vh< n seen last night Mr. Johns n said
he had accepted the nomination and in
tended making the race. There are few
men in Savannah belter known than Mr.
Johnson. As the son of the late Gov.
Ilerschel V. Johnson, he comes of dis
tinguished ancestry. He became promi
nent in politics shortly after the war. He
was assistant postmaster for one term
and was then appointed collector of eius
toms for the port of phich posi
tion he hold longer than any other occu
pant of the office before or since, serving
under Grant, llayes, Garfield, Arthur,
Cleveland and Harrison. During Cleve
land’s first term lie was succeeded by the
late Capt. John F. Wheaton and under
his second term by Mr. Bro k Beckwith.
He was not nn applicant for the oilDr
under I’resident McKinley.
Notwithstanding his Republican politics
Mr. Johnson has always been very popu
lar with his fellow-citizens of Savannah,
though how fir personal friendship will
serve him in politics remains to be seen.
His nomination will serve to complicate
matters somewhat in the K-puMicun fold.
*M r. Johns on’ nomination wa
thing of a surprise to those not .in the
inside of Republican politics. It was
pretty generally supposed that ho had
retired from the field of active campaign
ing, and his re-entry i? likely to stir
up matters somewhat among other sec
tions of the party. He was not prepared
last night to say just what his course
will be, but it will be stated fully In his
letter of acceptance of the nomination.
WILL €4O TO N. 11. fc T. CO.
Mr, W. F. McCauley Resigned From
< lint hum Chink.
Mr. W. F. McCauley will become cash
ier of the Savannah Bank and Trust
Company, July 3. to succeed the late W.
G. Cann. Mr. McCauley has tendered his
resignation as cashier of the Chatham
Bank, and it will probably be acted upon
at an early meeting of the directors.
Mr. McCauley was prompted to accept i
the position tendered him by the diree- j
tors of the Savannah Bank and Trust j
Company because he considered it a pro- j
motion. For the last two and a half years
he. has served the Chatham Bank faith
fully and satisfactorily, and his relations
with the directors and every on© connect
ed with it have been pleasant, and agree
able.
Mr. McCauley is recognized ns one
of Savannah’s best posted men on finance
and financial matters, llis management of
the affairs of th< Chatham Bank, as view
ed by the. outside world, is shown by the
price of its stock in the open market.
It is understood to be settled that Mr.
Barron Carter, at present assistant cash
ier of the Chatham Bank, will be Mr. Mc-
Cauley’s successor. Mr. Carter has been
connected with the Chatham Bank for
ten years, and is thoroughly posted on
banking affairs.

can assure you they will be handled with
all of the fidelity, ability and judgment
with which 1 am endowed. My earnest
hope is that when my term of office shall

IXM TORS HAD A LIVELY TIME.
Exciting; Topic* Said to Have Been
I)i*caMe<l by Ga. Medical Society.
The meeting of the Georgia Medical j
Society last night is said to have been
an interesting one. At least, it is known
that there were some very Interesting
questions to come and questions which j
were likely to provoke hot debate. The
meeting was largely attended, and con
tinued in session for about two hours.
Members who were interrogated after the
meeting, however, said that the discussion
had been of the most orderly character
and that nothing out of the ordinary had
ocurred.
The questions which it is understood
were to come before the meeting related
to the professional conduct of two prom
inent members, who were charged with
violations of ethics, the matter, it is !
stated, relating to a patient who was op
erated upon at one of he hospitals by
the two physicians in question without
the physician in charge of the hospital
being taken into consultation.
The question of the collection of arrears
of dues was also said to be a serious
source of contention, charges having been
made that the members of the former St.
James Dispensary were being discriminat
ed against in this matter. The physicians
against whom charges of unprofessional
conduct were brought, are also under
stood to be members of the Savannah
Medical Society, a more recent organiza
tion than the Georgia.
The dissensions in the Georgia Medical
Society, beginning with the formation of
the St. James Dispensary, some time ago,
and accentuated by the organization of
the* Savannah Medical Society, and the
more recent discussion of the hospital
question before Council, with incidental
developments following this discussion,
have become so serious as to at times
threaten the disruption of the society.
The probabilities are that the latest clash
has been only temporarily averted, and
that there will be further developments.
THE CIVIL DOCKET CALLED,
.Inly and August tlie Superior Conrt
AVI 11 Try Civil Cane*.
The civil trial docket In the Superior
Court was called by Judge Falllgant yes
terday morning, most of the members of
the local bar being in attendance during
the time the docket was being, called.
Cases were assigned that will consume
the time of the court during most of the j
month of July, and the entire month of
August.
Monday the court will take up the trial
of criminal cases and the remainder of
the present month, and the first week I
in July will probably be consumed in this j
wise. For the first week the criminal cases
assigned are of no particular public in
terest, the defendants being charged with
minor burglaries and other crimes of the
like character, serious enough In them
selves, but unattended by any of the cir
cumstances chat commend the stories of
them to the people.
“Hnnger In the Rent Jiflaeie,”
Yet some people are never hungry. What
ever they eat has to be “forced down.”
There is, of course, something w*rong
with these people. By taking Hood's Sar
saparilla a short time they are given an
appetite and then they enjoy eating and
food nourishes them. Tf you find your
appetite failing, just try a bottle of
Hood’s. It is a true stomach tonic and
every dose does good.

BISHOP KEILEY’S RECEPTION.
Hl* SAVAAXAH FRIESDS GREETED !
HIM IX THE XKW CATHEDRAL
The Fact That the Train Was Three
Honrs Late Did Not Prevent-'' n
Large Gathering—Add reases Made
ly Father Bazin in Behalf of tlie
Clergy oud Mr. P. J. O’Connor in
Behalf of the Laity—The Pnme I
Presented Quite a Handsome One.
In Responding to the Address the l
Bishop .Said He Had Become a
Complete Convert to Savannah.
Dismissed the Crowd With His
Bless! ng.
The Rt. Rev. Benjamin J. Keiley,
Bishop of Savannah, returned to the city
yesterday afternoon from Richmond,
where his consecration as bishop took
place last Sunday. The Bishop was re
ceived with a hearty demonstration by
the Catholics of the city, the enthusiasm
of which was none the less because the
train upon which he arrived was pome
three hours late.
The train was due at 4:15, city time. It
was after 7 o’clock when it arrived. The
Reception Committee gathered at the
Bishop’s residence at 3:15 p. m., but when
the members found that the train was
greatly behind time, they dispersed, to
meet again at 5:30 o’clock. The recep
tion was scheduled to begin at 5 o’clock,
and quite a large number of Catholics
gathered at the Cathedral between the
hours of 5 and 6 o’clock. They were dis
appointed to find that the train was great
ly behind time and that there seemed to
be no certainty as to the time of its ar
rival. Many went away to return again,
while others waited tho Bishop’s arrival.
It was the first time that many of those
present had had the opportunity of view
ing the handsome interior of the new
Cathedral, and they found that this alone
was worth Ihe visit.
Shortly after the ringing of tho large
new bell in the south tower of the Ca
thedral announced that tlie Bishop had
arrived and tho scattered crowds gath
ered rapidly. The Reception Committee
was nt the depot with carriages waiting
to receive the Bishop. The committee
consisted of the following gentlemen:
Henry Blun, John Flannery, William Ke- >
hoe. John Lyons, J. J. McDonough. Dan
iel Hogan, J. E. Grady, Jeremiah Cronin, ;
J. J. McGowan, P. Barrett, F. Hart,
Thomas Nugent. Dr. M. F. Dunn. Hugh
Logan, P. J. O’Connor, M. J. O’Leary, M.
J. Barrett, Lawrence Kelly, C. L. Pren
dergast, J. F. Brooks, J. It. Dillon, J. J.
Horrlgan.
The Catholic clergy of the city also ac
companied the committee. In the first
carriage were Bishop Keiley and Vicar
General Bazin, accompanied by Capt.
Henry Blun and Capt. John Flannery.
The trip to the Cathedral was quickly
made, the party being warmly received
by the crowds gathered there. Disem
barking at tho Bishop’s residence the party
spent only sufficient time there to allow the
Bishop to robe himself in his vestments.
It was already growing late, and there
being no lights in the Cathedral, tho re
ception there Could wait but little longer.
The crowd in the church gathered at the
sanctuary, as it was announced that the
Bishop and his party were coming. The
members of the committee' come first and
took seats which had been arranged for
them in a semi-circle. A moment later
Bishop Keiley came in, accompanied by
Capt. Blun and others anti took his seat
at a table within the* semi-circle. He wns
arrayed in the handsome purple vest
ments of the bishop’s office and was re
ceived with murmurs of applause. Capt.
Blun, ns chairman of the committee, rail
ed for order and then introduced* Vicar
General Bazin, who addressed the Bishop
in behalf of the clergy. Father Bazin said:
“Right Reverend Dear Bishop: In the
name of the priests of the diocese of Sa
vannah, both secular and regular, and m
my own name, I extend to you a hearty
welcome as our Bishop.
“We trust. Right Reverend Sir. that the
heavy weight of the Episcopate will fall
lightly on- your should civ. for we will ex
ert all our endeavors to help you bear it.
We will all strive to work with you for
the spiritual welfare of this diocese we
love so well. We are no strangers to
you, nor are you- a stranger to us. Hence,
we trust that’ our mutual relations will
h irmonize from the begii r it g •Y'ou w
find, us loyal and true to you, and al
ways ready to labor with you, fo that re
ligion may flourish in the dear old diocese
of Savannah. Our aim will be to make
this diocese the foremost in the* South,
because Georgia, over which the diocese
extends, ranks proudly as the Empire
State of the South.
"We will be to you dutiful and loving
sons, as. we sincerely believe you will be
to us all an affectionate and tender
father.
“But as all our endeavors would 1 be
futile without the assistance and blessings
of God, we will continue to pray the
Father of Mercies, and the God of nil
consolation to shower down upon you.
His choicest benedictions, and to animate
and enlighten us with His Holy Spirit.
“I now, once more, welcome you as our
new Bishop, and present to you a small,
but spontaneous testimonial of our kindly
feelings towards you.”
Capt. Blun, in introducing the speaker
for the laity, said:
“Dearly Beloved Bishop: To me has
been assigned the chairmanship of an as
sembly of the* several congregations of the
I Roman Catholic? of this < ity and to ex
j press to you, our beloved Bishop, our feel
ings and regards for you personally. Your
predecessor was a priest of erudition, a
man great and good, his equals are few.
As his successor wo know you will illus
trate like him. the faith you profess.
“The work intrusted to you by the Holy
Father is one of great responsibilities, and
we are proud to know our Bishop aided
by a corps of priests who have the inter
ests of this diocese at heart will fully
come up to the great trusts.
“I will not detain tho large audience
of your friends by any lenglhy remark?,
and take the liberty ‘of introducing the
Honorable P. J. O’Connor, who has been
intrusted with the duty of presenting to
your lordship a testimonial of the appre
ciation for your services by your friends
of the several congregations of the city.
On this auspicious occasion allow us to
offer sincere congratulations, not alone of
the Catholics of Savannah, but of also tho
many friends of other denominations here
and elsewhere.”
In responding for the laity, Mr. O’Con
nor sold in part: “Right Reverend Bish
op: I have been requested by the laity
of this diocese, to make some expression
of their feelings upon this momentous
occasion. While T feel that I cannot do
! the subject justice, I shall endeavor in
j my feeble way, to convey some idea of
; our feeling toward you. Ever since your
| consecration in Richmond, the devoted
j mid patriotic Roman Catholics of this
i fair city have been anxious for an oppor
| tunlty to extend your lordship n hearty
and filial ■welcome, and to manifest our
appreciation of the great distinction with
which you have l>een crowned by the
| lloly Father. For twenty-seven years
I you have been n member of the priest
hood, which has done so much for the
enlightenment and advancement, morally
; and intellectually of the human race.
Fourteen years ago you accompanied to
Georgia your lamented predecessor, the
saintly and erudite Becker, of whom it
may be truly exclaimed, “’Blessed ore the
dead which die in the Lord.” During
all these years you have shown yourself
| a true priest and shepherd. You came
among us n stranger, but you are now
bound #o us by ties of the purest amity.
Your fine example and your pure life has
served as an ennobling influence to those
under your core, while your genial xvarmth
ho? enlivened social intercourse in Cath
olic circles.
“When a vacancy occurred in the Bish
opric of this see it was (he earnest prayer
of the people of this city that you might
be chosen for this high office, and their
hearts wfre thrilled with Joy when they

Gentlemen—Tt gives me pleasure to
heartily recommend “Infant-Friend
Powder,” and to give to you a singu
lar little coincidence connected with
it.
During the Cotton States and Inter
national Exposition I was presen'ed
with a little box of this powder, and
was eo pleased with it that I was ex
ceedingly anxious to get more, but on
looking at the box I found nothing
but Savannah, Go., no other address.
I have often wished I knew where
to get It. This morning’s mail brought
your circular with enclosed sample. I
immediately referred to my box. and
found it was the “Infant-Friend Pow
der.” It is without doubt tho best
powder I have ever used.
Respectfully,
MRS. W'm. KING.
