RIOTOUS YOUNG ONES.
In Wild Desire to See Santa Clan*
They Blocked the Street.
Several hundred juveniles made life
miserable for two patrolmen on
Broughton street yesterday afternoon
in front of Adler's big show window.
Santa Claus made his bow to the chil
dren. and the street was impassable,
sidewalks and all, until Superintend
ent Reilly hurried a man to assist Pa
trolman Jernigan and visited Adler's
himself.
In regulation costume Santa Claus
drove up at 3:30 o'clock followed by a
howling, jostling mob of youngster*.
In the great gathering of human mites
there were children of all sorts. Boys
and girls, rich and poor, all were on
hand to take the first peep at Santa
Claus—the kind old man who van be in
a million places at the same time, and
who seldom forgets a chimney. There
were children snugiy wrapped in cloaks
and tightly muffled to keep out the
cold damp air, and there were ragged
and unkempt urchins whose hearts
thumped at the sight of the good old
man. Although garbed differently the
children felt as one. and the blood ran
through their veins rapidly as they
looked up at the smiling face of Santa
Claus.
The reception accorded the charita
ble old fellow must have made him
feel good, and it was with the greatest
difficulty that he alighted from his
conveyance, and walked to the window
which will be his headquarters until
Christmas eve. There he bowed as the
little ones shouted to him a list of
those things which they desire most.
His nods of approval to the many re
quests made hundreds of young hearts
leap with Joy, and patient parents were
told later in the evening tvhat dear old
Santa Claus had promised to do on the
night before the birthday of Christ.
While the children were laughing
and shouting, and their elders were
watching the scene with interest, gaz
ing upon a sight that took them back
to the days when they knew no cares
or troubles, there were shoppers and
pedestrians who had no time to tarry.
Although an enchanting sight, it was
one that they could not stay and en
joy, and still they found it imngwg’Vte
to paw the hspyy throng A juveniles.
Kven the trolley car motormen had to
go at a snail's pace when Adler’s store
was passed. Patrolman Jernigan was
walking Broughton street, but he found
it impossible to keep the little ones off
the sidewalk.
Jernigan is the largest man on the
force, and as he towered over the lit
tle ones, first commanding, and then
pleading with them to move he was
met with shouts of laughter from the
brighter faces and jeers from the gam
mliiß. The officer was powerless, and
his entreaties fell upon deaf ears. De
tective Murphy happened along about
this time, and saw that Jernigan
would soon be lost in the crowd,
which was rapidly swelling. The de
tective telephoned the situation to the
desk sergeant at police headquarters,
but similar messages had been pour
ing in since the arrival of Santa Claus.
The strain was telling on Jernigan,
and he was becoming weaker and
weaker.
Superintendent Reilly hurried Patrol
man Buckwall to assist and the two
officers picked up several lads and
made special officers of them. With
the reinforcements the sidewalk was
kept comparatively clear during the
later hours of the afternoon, and the
children were banked up in the street.
The same performance is promised
each afternoon until Christmas day,
and Superintendent Reilly will prob
ably ha\e to keep two of his men busy
watching the children as they make
their wants known to Santa Claus.
FOR 53-CARD TRICK.
Tnn Negroes Held liy Rfcordfr for
Trying to Swindle Country
For working the “SS-cprd'' trick on
country negro, Charles Mitchell and
George S. Brooks, both colored, were
remanded for trial in the City Court
by Recorder Myrick yesterday on a
charge of cheating and swindling. The
negroes were unable to furnish bail for
their appearance, and were committed
to Jail.
Jacob Hamilton, the country negro,
who had been selected as the victim,
had been held a prisoner by the police
and appeared against the men who had
made an effort to do the card stunt.
Hamilton was unable to furnish a very
lucid account to the Recorder, and Pa
trolman Godbold had to explain to the
court how the unwary are trapped by
the dropping of a card from a pack
that originally contained one card too
many. The officer caught Mitchell and
Brooks red-handed, and they made but
a feeble defense when arraigned.
POLICE JIAO AO TnOIRLB.
New Vaudeville House Opened
Without Any Disturbance.
Alexander's Vaudeville Theater,
about which there hag been so much
objection and talk before the Cjty
Council, opened last night, and al
though the place was packed to the
doors there was no disorder. Negroes
occupied the gallery and the boxes and
first floor accommodated the whites.
The performance was similar to that
given In the other vaudeville houses—
a show for a stag audience that
doesn't mind a little rough work. A
woman on the bill as Fannie Barry did
a dance that seemed to catch the
crowd, and Laßelle Fatima, who has
done stuntß in the Streets of Cairo,
during the midway shows in this city,
gave the usual exhibition. The other
eveDls were of the usual sort and the
dancers appeared to be the ones who
interested the mixed audience the
most.

FOR THREE ROBBERIES
Delivery Wagon Thieves Remanded
for Trial l>y Recorder.
Detectives Stark and Murphy pro
dined sufficient evidence in Police
Court yesterday to warrant Recorder
Myrick in remanding George Brown
and Edgar Porter, both colored, for
trial in the City Court. The men were
held on three warrants alleging lar
ceny.
The officers were able to positively iden
tify property taken from the pris
oners as the same that had been stolen
from delivery wagons of Foye & Eck
stein, Byck Bros, and Jackson & Cos.
The detectives have not yet been able
to secure a full confession from the
prisoners, but they hope to secure
other property which is believed to
have been stolen. Brown and Porter
were arrested on the Louisville road
after a hard chase, and In the opinion
of the detectives have been systemat
ically robbing delivery wagons for
some time.
That there had been a robbery com
mitted was first discovered by Central
Railway Officer J. A. Blakewood, who
was on duty at the depot at about 4
o'clock Sunday morning, when he was
approached by a negro named Albert
Watkins, who told him that negroes
had come to his house at No. 325 West
Boundary street and left a box. say
ing they had got left by a train and
would call the next morning for the
box if he would keep it for them. Wat
kins told them that he would and they
left. After their departure Watkins
examined the box. and found that it
seemed to contatn shoes and dry goods.
This aroused the suspicion that it had
been stolen, so he reported the matter
to the poiiceman.
Officer Blakewood went to the house
and and had the negro open the box,
which contained pieces of dry goods,
shoes and made-up garments. The offi
cer went back to the depot and got
Watchman J. P. Murphy to go back
to the house and watch the box and
keep a lookout for the negroes until
his return. After Officer Blakewood got
back both maintained a strict watch
until 9:30 o’clock in the morning, hav
ing secreted themselves in a room, but
the men did not show up. Later dur
ing the morning, however, they were
spotted by Officer Eagleson of the Cen
tral's force, who chased them through
the yards, capturing one of them, with
the assistance of another man. The
other hid in bushes near the Spring
field canal, where he was discovered
and pounced upon by Dave Farmer,
the transfer agent at the depot, who
held him until the arrival of Mounted
Officer Coffee.
VETERAN WANTED TO fIgHT.
Although Rllnd lip Wl*lied tn Bent
Freeh Voting Sinn.
One of the two blind men stationed
on the corner of Bull and Broughton
streets got his Confederate blood boil
ing last night, and expressed a. desire
to thrash a young man who had in
sulted him. The crowd was with the
old soldier and the smart young rrtan
was wise enough to depart before he
had been handled roughly.
The young man remarked that the
veteran should to the Soldiers'
IFome, and made some other statement
that was not very kind. The old sol
dier as a matter of fact was on his way
to the home in Atlanta when it was
burned, and the fact that he should
be spurned by a man many years his
Junior caused the blood to boil in his
veins. He was in for clubbing the
man cvho had insulted him and would
have done so with the help of the
crowd, but for the fact that the In
dividual in question moved on before
hostilities commenced.
Another blind Confederate soldier,
who *ells pencils for a living, and who
is accompanied at all times by a fox
terrier, was on the same corner, and
also grew angry at W’hat was said. The
two old soldiers related anecdotes, and
recalled battles, after the fresh young
man departed, and a crowd gathered
around them and was entertained.
Jokes that brought to mind the days
of the Civil War were sprung by the
old veterans to the amusement of the
crowd, and a liberal contribution fol
lowed. The corner was blocked for
some little while.

DIRECTED A VERDICT.
Jnilgr Seabrook Tolil Jury to Find
Joe Stafford got Guilty.
Joe Stafford, one of the hoys* who
"set up” in the bowling alley at the
Savannah Yacht Club, faced a jury
in the Superior Court yesterday on an
indictment charging him with assault
with intent to murder. Judge Sea
brook directed a verdict of not guilty.
Joe and another guardian of the ten
pins, the latter rejoicing in the name
of Gussie Sutler, became engaged in
an animated argument in the bowling
alley, regarding the responsibility for
the presence of a broken glass on the
polished cypress floor. It seemed that
the first resort to other than oral ar
guments had been on the part of Sut
ler, who had made effective use of a
ten-pound bowling ball to enforce his
contentions. Then Stafford used his
knife, making a neat incision tn 'the
leg of his opponent.
These seemed to be the facts of the
difficulty. Mr. Kldwell, superintendent
of the Yacht Club, testified that the
defendant was a boy of good charac
ter. quiet, orderly and well-behaved.
After listening to the evidence and the
arguments of counsel Judge Seabrook
directed a verdict of not guilty and it
was returned, Stafford then being giv
en his liberty.
Della Houston, also charged with as
sault with intent to murder, was also
found not guilty. There was no dis
puting the fact that Della had made a
determined attack upon Enoch Bow
ens, in charge of the rifle range at
Avondale, and that she had wielded a
razor with such telling effect that she
nearly succeeded in severing Enoch's
head from his body. The evidence
showed, however, that Enoch and his
son had first assaulted Della and that
she, to use her own expression, had
“jes cut her way out.” The jury
thought she was justified and the ver
dict of not guilty was returned,
A jury also found Grant Burroughs,
a colored longshoreman charged with
burglary, not guilty. He was alleged
to have broken and entered the house
of John Johnson and stolen several
articles of apparel, but he managed to
establish an alibi that was satisfac
tory to the jury.
No sentence was imposed by Judge
Seabrook in the case of William Jack
son. who acknowledged he was guilty
of stealing something over $9. with
which he had been entrusted by the
E. & W. Laundry. Jackson is afflicted
with a loathsome and now incurable
disease and what disposition to make
of him is a problem for the decision of
the court.
CASE WILL BE LIA’ELV.
Trial of Barnett Again*! Cuaniug
liuni A**igiiefl for To-morrow.
The case of Mrs. H. V. Burnett
against Mrs. Deborah E. Cunningham
will be tried in the City Court to-mor
row. Mrs. Burnett is suing Mrs. Cun
ningham on two notes, aggregating in
amount $1,080.50, alleged to have been
executed in Baltimore at a time when
both plaintiff and defendant were un
der arrest in that city for alleged shop
lifting. It is expected there will be
lively times at the hearing.
In her answer to the petition Mrs.
Cunningham denies indebtedness on
these notes and alleges that they were
executed under circumstances of du
ress and mistake, at a time when she
was in jail at Baltimore, that relieve
her of liability. Two detectives, F. E.
Kratz of Baltimore and W. H. Trainor
of Washington, reached the city yes
terday, it is said, for the purpose of
testifying at the trial.

AGED WOMAN’RUN OVER.
Knocked Down by Empty Car* al
Wilson mid Stewart Street*.
An aged white woman, rather poor
ly clad, was run over at Stewart and
Wilson streets at an early hour this
morning by a train of cars being
switched into the Union Depot site. Her
name could not be learned, and the ex
tent of her injuries could not be .ascer
tained. •
The woman was standing in the mid
dle of the track in a driving rain
when seen by the engineer of the train.
She was knocked down by the train
and five empty cars passed over her.
The wheels did not pass over the body,
and the woman must have been in
jured internally.
Mounted Sergeant Mi Cool was in the
neighborhood at the time of the acci
dent and took charge of the injured
woman. She appeared to be suffering
considerable pain and could make no
statement. She told Sergt. McCool that
she is deaf and this may be the rea
son why she did not hear the train
approaching. The woman did not ap
pear to have her right mind, and was
sent to the Savannah Hospital in the
police ambulance. Sergt. McCool was
unable to learn anything about the wo
man, and no explanation could be giv
en by any one for her presence on the
track at such an unseemly hour. Her
clothing was wet when examined by
the police officer.
WANT NO LKiV'OR LICENSE.
Protest Entered Against One Being
Granted by Connell. .
Property owners and residents of the
neighborhood of Jefferson and Duffy
streets have petitioned the City Coun
cil to refrain from granting a liquor
license to anyone at the northwest
corner of the streets named. It is set
forth that there are two churches in the
neighborhood, and that its peace and
quiet would be threatened if a license
were granted.
AT THE THEATER.
Miss Beulah Dodge, who plays the
Salvation Army lassie in the Belle of
New York to-morrow night, besides be
ing pretty, Is gifted with a soprano
which has the benefit of cultivation,
while Burrill Barbarette's counter bar
itone fulfils every requirement of his
role, he being fitted for the patriotic
march song. “Old Glory.” There is the
Junoesque Gertrude Rutledge, as Cora
Angelique, with her mezzo-soprano:
Arthur Deagon, who sings "She Is the
Belle of New York;” Mae Sailor, as the
little Parislenne, and so on to the
chorus. But "The Belle of New- York”
does not depend upon its music and
singing alone. The company contains
several people who create mirth. Chief
among these are Mr. Edward J. Con
nelly, he of the attenuated figure and
economical width, who plays Ichabod
Bronson, president of the Young Men's
Rescue League and Anti-Cigarette So
ciety of Cohoes, N. Y.; Howard Cramp
ton. as the father of the queen of comic
opera; Virginia Rose, as Betty, the Bat;
James Darling, as Kennth Mugg, low
comedian of the Cora Angelique Opera
Company: Joseph Kane, as the Polite
Lunatic, who kills his “victims mit'out
noise or eggsitment,” and many others
help along the fun. Pearl Revera
dances about as if she were a bundle
of wire springs, and Hattie Wells, who
does all sorts of dancing and cake
walking on her toes, appear Saturday.
There is little time for chit chat,
small talk, scandal, jokes and social
ambiguities in Rose Coghlan's new
play “Forget Me Not.” It is too strong
ly dramatic to permit a section ot the
whole of the characters employed t$
indulge in tiresome talk, and Miss
Coghlan is kept constantly active in
a series of sensational scenes which
employ all the artifices and emotional
powers of America’s greatest actress
in roles of this character. The com
edy scenes of the play scintillate with
satirical speeches and terse epigrams
of a daring and unconventional na
ture, while the part played by Miss
Coghlan requires absolute genius to
enlist the sympathy and approval of
the audience.
