BIG RALLY SOON IN SOUTH SIDE DECEMBER 30 THE DATE. H. M. MARTIN TALKED 'OF IM PROVEMENTS NEEDED THERE. I’reprmtton* are Being Made for Bln Rally and Parade—No Decision as to Lot for the New Club House. Number of Prominent Speakers at Last Night's Meeting—Mr. Cream er Told of the Work the Club is Doing. The feature of the meeting of the South Side Administration Club last night was the speech by Mr. R. M. Martin, who has Just returned from St. Louis, where he had charge of the Georgia exhibit at the World’s Fair. Mr. Martin made a number of sug gestions in urging improvement plans for the South Side. "I am more than pleased,” said Mr. Martin, "to be again in Savannah and to be able to address the members of the South Side Club. I thought I ap preciated your organization when I left here, but I am afraid I did not. Out in St. Louis I learned that what counts is good, steady work. “I believe the South Side club gives good, steady work and therefore I be lieve the club will accomplish things that I never before dreamed of. That this club has the push and energy, I have no doubt. There are some points, however, that I think I could aid the club in.” The Park Improvements, Mr. Martin dwelt at length upon the improvements that could be made for the parks of the city. He referred to the fact that in St. Louis there are many small narks, which are fixed up os nicely as the large ones. All parks, he said, should receive the attention of the city. There should be good arti ficial stone walks, convenient drinking fountains and everything that the pub lic really needs, If all the members of the South Side would pull together for the improve ment of the section, he said, Forsyth Park would have a walk through the extension and Thomas, and the other parks would be improved. Large Attendance at Meeting. There was a large attendance at the meeting. No arrangements had been made to bring up any special subject, and everything mentioned was of an informal nature. A rousing rally on Dec. 30 was decided upon. At this rally final preparations for the parade on the night before the election will be made. There were quite a number of speak ers last night. Following Mr. Martin, Mr. I. U. Kinsey, Mr. John F. Free man, Mr. J. Robert Creamer, Mr. Carl Mendel, Mr. H. E. Dreeson, Mr. J. Fred Bernhardt, Mr. J. C. C. Bernhardt and Mr. F. M. Cornwell were called upon. Mr. Creamer in his speech outlined a number of improvements that the South Side is fighting for. Thirty fifth street, he said, would be opened during the coming year. The paving of Thirty-first street to the Ogeechee road was also advocated by Mr. Creamer. The improvements for the South Side would come, Mr. Creamer said, because the members of the club worked for them. All the notable improvements, Mr. Creamer said, had come after tlhe South Side had advocated them. The increase in the pay of the city cart drivers had been advocated by the South Side two years ago, Mr. Creamer said. TRIED NINE CASES IN AN HOUR’S TIME.

Dec. 16.—Coi. W. W. Lambdin has gone to Washington, where he will argue the case of A. O. Murphey & Hunt, against the Central of Georgia Railway Company, before the Supreme Court of the United States. The case involves the consti tutionality of the Tracing act, passed several years ago by the Georgia Leg islature, and the decision will be of interest to all the railroads and the shippers of the state generally. The plaintiffs shipped a carload of grapes to Omaha. Upon arrival at the destination the grapes were found to be in a damaged condition and were rejected. The shippers called upon the Central to trace the shipment and show where the damage occurred, and upon its failure to locate it the plaintiffs brought suit to recover damage sus tained. The case has been tried twice in Pike Superior Court, and twice by the Su preme Court of Georgia, the plaintiffs winning in every trial of the case. The railroad now carries it to the Supreme Court of the United States, in an ef fort to have the Georgia law declared unconstitutionai. R. S. M’IVER RESIGNED FROM A. C. L.

SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY. DECEMBER IT. 1904. LANDRUM LODGE ELECTED OFFICERS. Landrum Lodge No. 48, F. and A. M., elected officers last night for the en suing year. The installation of the officers, whicih was to have taken place, was post poned until Jan. 6, owing to the wor shipful master-elect being absent from the city. After the new officers are in stalled they will appoint the floor offi cers. Past Worshipful Master W. T. Hopkins was presented with a past master's jewel. The following are the new officers: Worshipful Master George W. Dwelle, .Tr. Senior Warden—N. B. F. Close. Junior Warden—C. S. Wood. Treasurer—C. H. Carson. Secretary—W. C. Travis. WITH THE SECRET ORDERS. On initiation nights of the secret orders, many amusing and ludicrous incidents happen to enliven things. The poor, trembling candidate who whits in the little outside room, for the would-be funmakers to call him in, is usually the victim of the jokes. This has always been recognized as the order in which initiations should be conducted however. A timid candi date made a strenuous departure from the regular order of things East night, when one of the city lodges was hold ing its session. The candidate was left in the ante room until the session of the lodge had proceeded to the point where he was to be called in to ride the proverb ial goat. He waited for awhile, but evidently the cold, dark room worked upon his nerves, for when the master ordered the candidate, in thunderous tones, to “Enter,” there was no reply. Upon 'investigation it was discovered he had disappeared. A search all over the hall was made, but nowhere was he .visible. The joke, this time, was not on the candidate. At the regular meetirfk of Savannah Aerie No. 330, Fraternal Order of Eagles, held last night, it was de cided to donate a number of Chrlstm'as baskets to the poor. A committee of ten was appointed to make all arrange ments for the intended donation. The committee will ascertain about 150 of the most needy families in the city, and on the night before Christ mas, each will receive a basket. The baskets will contain Irish potatoes, sweet potatoes, bananas, cabbages, chicken or turkey, coffee, butter, sugar, condensed milk, cans of fruit, cans of vegetables and perhaps two or three loaves of bread and pies. There were about seventy-five members of the or der present, and they voted on the resolution to provide for the poor with enthusiasm. The lodge is rapidly in creasing its membership, and five or six new members are initiated at every meeting. Grand Secretary Tyson, of the In dependent Order of Odd Fellows, has received ‘‘The Journal of Proceedings” of the Sovereign Grand Lodge, which held its session in San Francisco from Sept. 19 to 24, inclusive. The journal pertains to ail the proceedings of the session. On the cover of the journal is a cut of the building, known as "The Seven Stars,” in which the first lodge in America was organized. The first lodge was Washington No. 1, and Was instituted on April 26, 1819. "The Seven Stars” building was 4e stroyed in the Baltimore fire, on Feb. 8.
