NEGRO TO BECOME
AN ARMY OFFICER
8l*clnt to The Georgian
Milwaukee, Wla., September 7 —
Next Tuesday, September 11, General
Francis S. Dodge, who ha* been pay.
master general since January 25, 1004,
will go to the retired list, having
reached the age limit—(4. He enlist
ed as a private, October 9, 1881, In
« Massachusetts regiment, and was a
captain at the end ot the war, en
tering the regular army aa a first lieu
tenant In 1888, and was transferred
from the cavalry to the pay depart
ment In 1880.
Colonel Albert S. Towar I* the rank
ing colonel, but as the next In rank,
Colonel Culver C. Snlffen, will retire
nearly two years ahead of Colonel Tow
ar. he will succeed General Dodge.
Colonel Snlffen was a clerk In one
of the department* at Washington
when General Grant became president.
General Grant desired an additional
clerk. Snlffen was sent to the white
house, tried nnd accepted, and wan
with the force during the most of Gen
eral Grant’s two terms and all of the
time n great favorite of the presi
dent.
A few days before General Grant re
tired from office, In 1877. he asked Mr.
Snlffen what he could do for him.
"I would like to be a paymaster In
the regular army."
The silent man remained silent, but
the appointment was made the next
day, and for thirty-three years he has
been a paymaster In the army.
Colonel Towar will probably succeed
him January 1, 1908. That will leave
Colonel Charles H. Whipple the senior
colonel. He Is a son of the late Bishop
Whipple, of Minnesota, an officer of
distinction.
The promotion of Colonel Snlffen will
mske Lieutenant Colonel William H.
Comegys a colonel.
The promotion of Halford to be lieu
tenant colonel will mean that Captain
John R. Lynch, a negro, will succeed
Colonel Halford as major. He was
born n slave and was among the hun
gry, scared people of Vicksburg When
General Grant’s army entered the city.
July 4, 1883. After that he learned to
read and through his own efforts ac
quired a good education. Soon after he
became of age he was elected to the
Mississippi assembly and several times
re-elected, serving one term as speaker.
He was several time* elected to con-
gress. Under President Harrison he
served as auditor In one of the depart
ments. At the beginning of the Span-
ish-Amerlcan war he was made a vol
unteer paymaster and In 1901 entered
the regular army as « captain.

TURN ON THE SOFT MUSIC
FOR THE CONSENTINE COMEDY CO.
HIT A ROCK AT MADISON, GEORGIA
By TRI8TRAM TUPPER.
Nine pretty show girls, divested of
paint, powder and hope, were turned
adrift on the cruel world at Madison,
Go., Wednesday last along with nine
lean and hungry looking actor men,
after a series of fortunes and mis
fortunes In the Consentlne Comedy
Company, which made Its way sldwly
through a number of the Southern
states on one and two night stands, so
It was stated by Jim Rook, who found
his way to The Georgian office at a
late hour Thursday evening.
Jimmy Is under ordinary circum
stances a bright-faced youth of 20, with
a keen Irish wit and hair to match.
’’I’ve Just landed on ‘The Limited Ex
press' and have a ‘Message from the
Clouds,'" said Rook as a prelude, the
names of the shows he had been pre
senting throughout the summer being
the first thing he could think of.
Looking up through the glare of the
electric light Into the blackness of an
almost deserted office, the reporter saw
the messenger and wondered how the
Mllledgevllle authorities could have
been so careless.
No, I'm not craxy. My name's—but
what's In a name? I tell you I’m hun
gry, cull. Haven’t slept for two nights
and the lunch counter is os foreign to
me aa blarney to the sphinx. I'm will
ing to do anything but work—I’m an
actor out of a Job.
In this manner Jimmy Introduced
himself, then, after a few more pre
ludes In a minor key, be told the trag
ic story of the Consentlne Comedy
Company, Aibert Dwlndells, manager,
that set sail with a crew of eighteen
nble-bodled sailors and salloresses from
Birmingham, Ala., one balmy day last
June for the port of Fame and got
shipwrecked Wednesday morning at
Madison, Ga.
Said the actor man:
"We’ve been In the subdued rays of
smoky lamps since last June, when we
first set out from the Ore City. There’s
been no limelight In ours. Only the
feeble glitter of Standard Oil lit up
our pathway. .You see we hit the lit
tle towns through Alabama, Georgia,
Tennessee, Mississippi and Louisiana
on one and two night stands. But We
handed out the goods and took in the
coin—that Is, the wig-wearers handed
out the lines In copy book style and
the manager took In the dough.
"There acre eighteen of us," said
he as he turned on the soft music, "nine
fellows and nine girls. All of us were In
line spirits when we left our happy
homes expecting to make fortunes—but
nix!
“When we had starved through the
summer, stayed awake at night patch-
ln' old scenery and mendin' costumes
for nearly three monthe, the manager
stuck his head In the dressing room
the other morning and said he wanted
to see us. Everybody came out wear
ing a make-up-cracklng smile. We
thought pay day had at Inst come
around. 'I Just want to say this,' said
the manager, 'you have done good. The
show has been an artistic success from
start to finish and from start to finish
financial failure—'
‘Somebody said something here, but
the girls didn't mind. Then the man
ager disappeared.
“What were we handing out? The
Llmted Express,’ the one the girl gets
tied on the track in.' I did the heavy
—was the baggage man when the reg
ular was too weak to handle the
trunks and push the engine. This was
the stand-by and where there was to
be a two nights' hold-up we handed out
'The Message Prom the Clouds.' That’s
the one where th* detective catches a
torn letter dropped from the Diamond
express as It passes over the bridge and
he passes under. The message tells all
about a plot to help an heiress to heav
en and how the plan was balked. It's
good business. I played the part of
thug, when the time came, and during
Intermissions sold chewing gum and
bounced the boisterous.
“That's the way It wna. After the
bust-up the fellows put all they had to
gether end got the girls home and
started out to walking. I caught a
freight and here I am. What'e the
chonccs for a Job—or Just a bite to
cat?
"Minstrel show In town? What? Me
take a Job with a minstrel? Parade all
day nnd waeh off grease paint all
night? Me! You're gaffin' me! I
never would get another Job with the
legit If I'd stoop to that."
And Jimmy exited left center, stick
ing a proffered two-blte In hi* pocket
and making a Heckett-llke getaway
Into the darkness of the etalrWay.

Prom present Indications It Is proba
ble that the twenty-tour new men
added to the county police force jylll
go to work In about a week. At i
meeting of the roads and bridges com
mlttee of the county commission on
Thursday afternoon It was deetdod to
assign the men to duty as soon as the
exact sites for the camps are selected
The committee decided definitely
that the three stations where the men
will make their headquarters will be In
the Battle Illll, Buckhead and South
Bend districts. Several people were
present from Battle Hill to offer a site
for house and stables In that district
free. The Buckhead station will be
on land owned by the county—probably
that known as the Howard property.
The South Bend station will be near
Lakewood. Chairman E. V. Carter was
authorised to arrange definitely for the
sites.
The hours of duty were not agreed
upon, but It seemed to be the sense of
the meeting that the men should be on
duty ell the time, and that most of the
time ehould be spent In actually pa
trolling the county.

Maier & Berkele
We bnre now entered on the last week
of Christ's ministry, nnd the events ocror
with the rapidity of the shifting seenes of
the theater, till the curtain falls on Cal
vary.
The scene of this lesson Is on the
west slope of the Mount of Olives; then
In the streets of Jerusalem; then In tbs
eourt of the temple.
Christ has been a prophet, nnd priest,
nnd now He Is to appear In Hla third of
fice ns King. lie lias no royal chariot
In which to ride, drawn by rlehly eapsrl-
soned horses, nttended by princes and no
bles, but as had long before liern pre
dicted, lie will ride upon the colt nf nn
non. nnd this bod to lie borrowed with n
promise Mint It ohmild lie returned.
He aends two of Ills disciples after It.
Their names nr* not meutlnnod, but the
minute description of the s|iot given by
Mnrk would lend us to think that I’eter
was one of them. Christ came as the
I'flncc of Pence, bcnco It was appropriate
that He should ride, uot a horse, which
was usual In war, but on an ass. Mint wna
lined In peaceful pursuits, nnd on tho foal
of an nan, which was adapted for Its sacred
purpose, because It bad never been used.
"It marked the Prince ns not nlrove the
people In Ills niauer and ordering of enrtb-
ly state.''
They led the nss and the colt to Jesus,
then put tbclr garments over them to do
Him regal honor; then lifted Him on tho
eolt, and the triumphal procession began.
Then Ihe multitude spread their garments
In his path, thus recognising Him ns King,
snd cut the branehes from the trees and
strewed them In the way, and tilled the
air with their shoiita of busanna (O, navel)
One touching Incident on the way Is re
lated by Luke only:
As the procession licgnn to desrend from
the summit of the 3^omit of Olives, the
glories of Jerusalem In nil Its splendor
ond magnificence burst u|ion Jesus' view.
He sos standing upon the very ground “on
whlrh n generation taler the Tenth Itoiiinn
Legion would lw encamped, os s isirt of
the Imaleglog force, deatliied to lay all
the splendors before Him In ashes."
Aa He looked upon the city os It was,
and In vision ns It soon would lie, His
ryes Ailed with tears, and he gave (Ut
terance to Mint pathetic lamenlallou, “O,
-tertianInn, Jerusalem, thou that killed the
prophets nnd stoned them tbet are sent
unto thee, how often would I have gath
ered thee together as a hen gnthereth her
brood under her wing, but ye would not."
The deliverer weeps over the elty It Is now
too bite to save. It was the last Invita
tion and warning to the Jews who would
not receive Him. "They shall not leave In
thee one stone upon another, because thou
knewest not the time of thy visitation."
Half a century afterwards this prophecy
was literally fulfilled. A spectator of tbs
tragic seenes amidst which Judnb's sun
act In blood tells ns that when the Ho
man general Titus let his rsgles Ay against
Jerusalem, not unly was the city snd lbs
temple utterly destroyed, but that thou
sands were cruclAed anil thousands doomed
to slavery. The truth of this history Is con-
Armed la the scenes engraved ou the arrh
of Titus, at Home, which can be seen to
day.
When He entered Jerusalem, the whole
elty was greatly moved, shaken ss by an
earthquake, agitated aa the aea in a storm,
anil the query rose from thousands of
lips, "Who Is this? Who u this?" And
then came the answer, "This Is Jeans, the
prophet of Nazareth.”
The procession would not proceed far
ther than the foot of Mount Moriah, beyond
which they might not advance In traveling
array or with dusty feet.

Aftor the temple had been cleansed, II*

Him.
The very children In the temple Joined In
their glad hosannas. This was very gall

NEGRO TRIES TO KILL
BUT 18 SLAIN INSTEAD.
Charlestown, W. Va., Sept. 7.—Jasper
Thompson, a well-known negro, resid
ing about two miles from Charlestown,
was shot and killed by S. A. Marion,
alao-a negro. For some time past the
men have had trouble about some hogs
of Thompson's, which were In the habit
of breaking Into Marlon's lot.
Thompson went to Marlon's house,
knocked at the door, Informed him he
was going to kill him, and started In.
Marlon undertook to stop him, and
reaching for his pistol, shot Thompson
twice. The wounded man walked out
to the road and fell dead.

Tim Murphy at the Grand.
Tim Murphy, Dorothy Sherrod and
their splendid company are this season
giving even greater success than when
presented some years ago, that de
lightful comedy of character atudy and
pathetic truthfulness, "Old Innocence,”
which was always conceded to be one
of the most praiseworthy offerings In
a repertoire that Included many of the
most entertaining comedies given the
stage. This will be the attraction at
the Grand Friday night and Saturday
matinee and night.
"Old Innocence” Is a beautiful story,
refreshingly domestic and true to life
In almost every line that Is spoken. It
was taken from the same French
source that furnished the comedy, “A
Pair of Spectacles,” and permits Mr.
Murphy In the character of Jason
Oresn complete sway for the enactment
of many characteristics that are en
tirely his own! As has long been rec
ognised, Mr. Murphy has mastered the
art of swaying his audience from the
feeling that prompts a hearty laugh to
that of deepest emotion, and In ’’Old
Innocence" he is given full opportunity
to express both comedy and sentiment
to the fullest degree.
"Old Innocence" was and Is one of
the best comedies of Its day and In the
keeping of an artist of Tim Murphy’s
temperament Is a most artistic and en
joyable treat.
Haverly’s Minstrels.
Haverly’s Minstrels have three more
performances to their credit at the
Bijou—Friday night. Saturday matinee
and night. The engagement so far has
been a great success from every
standpoint and Indications are bright
for the balance of the week.
The capacity of the Bijou was tested
last night, and the crowd ahowed Its
appreciation In no uncertain manner.
