31 SHOP KEILY HAS RETURNED
Head of Catholic Church in Georgia
Back From Abroad.
The following from the Savannah
News of yesterday will be of inter
est among the many Brunswick
friends of Bishop Keily:
“The Right Rev. Benjamin J. Keily
Bishop of Savannah, has returned
from an extended pilgrimage to the
Holy Land, and an itinerary cover
ing the greater portion of Europe.
He landed in New York April 16,
and on his return to Savannah stop
ped at Washington, Baltimore and
Charleston. He came from Char
leston to Savannah.
“On his arrival here the bishop
found a large number of matters
that needed his attention and dur
ing yesterday he had little time to
receive callers. The confirmation
services occupied the entire day and
he said he was too tired to discuss
the trip.
“The pilgrimage was one of many
that Bishop Keily has made in re
cent years, and he thinks as little
of making the trip, almost, as the
average traveler does of going to
New York. He was accompanied
this year by about fifty other pas
sengers. During his stayirtu Rome
he had an audience with^the pope.’

last night was not. attended by a
very large crowd hut those presen
seemed to enjoy the bout wnlch is
a rather unusual pastime in Bruns

Several preliminary (bouts took
place between B-unswick negroes
and finally the two main stars of the
evening appeared. Miller, tho local,
Is a bright mulatto while Dixon, the
New York visitor is of a decidedly
dark line. Miller did all of the fight
ing up to the tenth round when the
New York negro limbered up and
drove the local to the ropes. The
gong saved the favorite of the au
dit nec. In the next round it was all
the New Yorker’s way and In order
to avoid a knockout, which he would
have received, the local allowed the
referee to awrd the decision
to Dixon. It Is believed that Dixon
could have beaten his man

SHIP m HER TROUBLES
Since She Went Into Commission
the Navy Department Has Been
Receiving Complaints of
Many Characters.
Of all the ships upon the blue,
No ship contained a better crew/
That that of worthy Capt. Reese,
Commander of the Mantleplece.
If President Roosevelt finds time
during his visit to Hampton Roa Is
to make a personal inquiry regard
ing an unusual state of affairs said
to prevail on board the United
States battleship Georgia,, Capt.
Richard G. Davenport, commanding.
Orders have been issued to Gear
gia to meet the Mayflower off Piney
P' lnt upon tlie occasion of .he
president's second visit to James
town in June, on Georgia Day, and
to take him to Hampton Roads and
return.
The navy department has been
receiving complaints. -More than a
month agio the chaplain of the Uoor
gia applied for detachment from
tlie vessel on the ground that he
was not permitted to perform hi3
clerical duties, even on Sunday. Up
on investigation it appears mat
Capt. ;!Daveiipo:k fiad required Hie
men to uerform duties on Sunday
that made it impossible for them
attend divine service.
The department ordered the cap
tain to cease his interference with
the liberty of the men guaranteed
to them by the regulations, and the
application of the chaplain was disap
pioved.
Capt. Davenport, it is now said,
recently Issued an order that rot
only games of cards, but all other
games, “tiddtody winks" chess and
other harmless games are forbidden
on board the Georgia.
The canteen lias been shut down
on Sunday, practically the only time
when the men have time to nmae
use of it, and purchase writing ma
terial and such other harmless deli
cacies as are 'provided.
Ti e department heard of Capt.
Davenport’s recent action in plan ,ig
the Georgia under sailing or.isrs
which means that every officer and
man is kept on board, ready to w.vgn
anchor at a moment’s notice. Capt.
Davenport, the department has been
informed,, then betook himself to
the beach on three day’s lea/e. it
has also been complained that from
the time the Georgia left Boston on
February 21 last until she sailed for
Cuba the last of March, not a sin
gle enlisted man, not even a chief
petty officer— was allowed to go
ashore.
Tho department wais amazed to
And at the time of the chaplains
request for detachment, that Capt.
Davenport’s orders to his ship dur
ing that, time had exceeded the num
ber of forty. They are said to have
reached upwards of fifty.
