THE AFRICA* METHODISTS.
Second Day's Session of the Gtorvla
Conference.
Much interest was attached to the Sec
ond day’s Session of the Georgia Con
ference of the African Methodist Episco
pal church.
' Bishop Grant Introduced Rev. J. H. Arm
strong, D. D., financial secretary of the
\friean Methodist connection with head
quarters at Washington. At this junc
ture the secretary read the annual report
of the department. Dr. Armstrong com
plimented the conferences of the Sixth
Episcopal District, and said that they
had furnished one-fourth of the money re
quired to run the general work of the
connection, and that their collections dur
ing the past quadrennial had been larger
than any in the history of the conference,
the amount being $21,855.54 more than any
previous time.
The Sixth district, embracing the Geor
gia, North Georgia. Macon, Ala
bama, Central Alabama, and North Ala
bama conferences, has collected during the
four years drawing to a close $161,122.80.
The money collected for education, mis
sionary purposes, and running the confer
ences in not included in these figures furn
ished by Dr. Armstrong. He said that in
this work it is ishown that the negro is
trying to elevate himself. He is of the
opinion that as the states of Georgia and
Alabama had furnished one-fourth of the
money to run the work, they should like
wise have a say in the selection of officers
to carry on the work.
Rev. H. T. Johnson, 1 D. D., editor of the
Christian Recorder, published by the con
nection, was introduced and addressed the
conference on his department of church
work. The Recorder is the oldest negro
lournal in America, having started over
oO years ago. "Over a half of a century,"
he said, "we have been exerting the in
fluence for the elevation of the race, and
the prosecution of this great and good
work of saving the world for Christ.
The following visitors were introduced:
Rev. R. M. Checks, presiding elder, Rome
district; M. M. Moore, East Florida con
ference; W. C. Gaines, Macon conference;
E. K. Ixtve, D. D., Raptist church of this
city, and many others.
The pastors then made their reports
which occupied the morning session. At
the conclusion the committee on dollar
money, reported that there was in its
hands over $6,000.
In the afternoon the committee on ad
mission reported recommending a class of
t wenty young men to be admitted on trial.
They were a bright set of young men, and
will doubtless do good service for the
church. The conference proceeded to the
election of delegates to general confer
ence with the following result:
Revs. R. R. Downs. T. M. N. Smith, S.
D. Rosehorough, W. H. Wells, J. A. Wood,
E. Dowry, D. H. Porter, J. B. Lofton.
Three others will be elected to-day, and
report will be made from electorial col
leges. .
A communication was presented to the
conference for approval and will be sub
mitted to the railroad authorities, asking
for ministers' permits or reduced rate
tickets for the ministers of the confer
ence.
Last night the annual missionary meet
ing was held. Rev. I. S. Hamilton of the
Hawkinsville district preached the mis
sionary' sermon. It was heard by 1,5(i0
people. After the sermon a collection, was
taken, amounting to S3OO, for the work.
To-night the educational sermon will
be preached.
AT THE THEATER.
Popular Prices Draw Large Audi
ences to See the Baldwin-Melville
Company.
The Baldwin-Melville Company had an
other large audience last night. The
theater was full, In fact. Twenty-five
more people in either section would have
made standing room only. The play' was
The Phoenix, a sterling old piece, and it
was well played. It was, indeed, a pro
duction superior to a great many of the
higher-priced shows that are on the road.
The company gave a matinee yesterday
afternoon to a full house, and acceptably
presented Fogg’s Ferry. The engagement
will continue during the remainder of the
week. It goes without saying that the
business will continue good. The show is
worth the price, and the price Is within
the reach of all.
The box sheet for reserved seats for the
Music Culture Club concert next Monday
night will open at the theater box office
this morning.
The phantom fancy dress melange and
soiree, to be given by Prof, Agostini Jan.

ed hall, with weird music, the phantoms
have a dance, after which each one silent
ly bows himself out. Instantly, the lights
ere turned VP and a fancy dress ball Is
In full blast. An interesting programme
has been prepared, on which Is a musical
quadrlll, a Trilby tableau, fancy dancing,
solos, duets and choruses. At 10 o’clock
Prof. Leon’s full orchestra will strike up
and the spectators will be allowed to
dance. Prof. Agostini will donate 36 per
cent, of all tickets sold by the lady man
agers of the city’s charities.
A large gathering will no doubt greet
the Juvenile Choral Society to-night at
Masonic temple. An elaborate and in
teresting programme has been arranged.
Mr. Ed. Connor, director of the Euterpe
Musical Club, has rehearsed special man
dolin and- banjo selections for the occa
sion. The club is composed of, six ladies
and six gentlemen and will form at attrac
tive feature, Mrs. Steel of Chicago,, who
is visiting her brother, Mr. E. K. Dem
monrt, will receive an enthusiastic wel

A UTILE BOY’S THEORY.
THOUGHT HE COULD AVOID SICK
NESS MERELY BV "MAKING VP
HIS MIND.*’
Once upon a time, a wise little bor as
sured his 111-informed parents that he
didn't Intend to have the mumps, even if
the disease was “going jround.” He could
be well just by making up his mind to, he
said. Next morning he bit into a pickle
and a terrific pain behind the ears made
him realize that he could not stave off dis
ease by an effort of will.
He is an oldish man now, and not half
as set in his opinions as he used to be. He
has noticed how rare is perfect health, and
how numerous are the causes that make
people weak and wretched. Work that they
cannat shirk, exposure, and, very often
their own indiscretion, bring men and wo
men to a condition wljffre only a little cold
or trifling indigestion Is needed to send
them shivering to bed.
The lesson is old as the gray ocean.
Watch yourself, and whim you detect the
first sign of decreasing strength, fortify
the body with something that stimulates
the whole system, gently yet effectively.
It is proper to say that Duffy's Pure Malt
Whiskey, a medicinal preparation, has sup
planted nearly all remedies for this pur
pose.
Thoughtful doctors know that, while
whiskey may be a most valuable help in in
ducing a healthy action in a sluggish body,
only a perfectly pure whiskey will answer
the purpose. The difficulty iri getting such
a whiskey has been a stumbling-block in
the physician’s path. It did not take the
public long to recognize the excellence of
Duffy’s Pure Malt.
There Is health and strength in every
drop of it.

THE BONFIRES.
Special Pleadings of the Boys anil
the Girls.
Savannah, Ga., Dec. 19.—Dear Mr. Edi
tor of the Morning News: Will you please
let me have a few more words to say
about the bonfires In the Park extension
—they vote on it to-night, I believe—on
the part of the girls?
Quite a lot of us girls met during recess
to-day and by a unanimous vote I was
asked to write this, begging the city fath
ers to amend that mean old ordinance
stopping bonfires in the extension. If we
girls could see where it hurt anything or
anybody to have them, why we wouldn't
say a word. But it don’t, that's all. It’s
lots of fun, Mr. Editor, for us young peo
ple to get together on Christmas night
and have a Jolly good time around the
fires. Some of these days we'll be get
ting old, and won’t have time for fun
like this, and we want to get all we can
out of the holidays. I cannot think that
thosa gentlemen will forget their early
pleasures, and I think the ordinance will
be changed with a great big yep. If they
don’t, well, we'll pout, sure. A Girl.
Mr. Morning News: I want to have one
or two more words with you about the
bonfires. Now, Mr. Editor, I know you
used to like the sport, and would holler
and yell and laugh just as we do when
you had your bonfires, and sfte the flames
lick up the barrels, and I know you are
with us, because I have seen you stand
around and laugh at the boyish pranks
and Jollities of Christmas night. And you
are going to help us out, ain’t you? Do
all you can for us, and we’ll make it all
right. Tell you the truth, I don’t believe
there’s an alderman on that board but in
his heart has a weakness for Jollity on
Christmas and they ain't going back on
the boys. Don’t I know ’em. -Papa says
they were Just the gayest boys in their
time as we are now and they can’t re
sist us. Now', Messrs. CRy Fathers, do
give us a chance for some fun and w’e’ll
never forget you. Yours in anxiety.

WANTS THEM - UNDER BOND.
An Effort to Keep Repenting Rifles
Out of the Hands of Negroes.
Representative B. Atkinson of Camden
county Introduced a bill In the last legis
lature to require persons carrying Win
chesters or other repeating rifles to give
a bond for the proper use of them.
It was desired to make people give se
curity for the lawful use of them for the
reason, that there are a number of tur
pentine negroes, especially in the southern
part of the state, who carry such weapons
and W'ho are a menace to the communi
ties where they live on account of them,
and the irresponsible use they make of
them. Dr. Atkinson’s bill was defeated
by a very small vote, and he expects to
have It Introduced again next session.
The bill would keep arms out of the
hands of this irresponsible class of ne
groes, because they would not be able
to give the bond required, and the law
would to that extent be a protection to
the communities, especially in Southern
Georgia, where such protection. Is needed.

THE TIGERS ON THE STAGS.
Princeton’* Glee Club Give* nn Ele
gant nnd High tin.* Entertain
ment.
The orange and black was in evidence
yesterday when stxty-two Princeton men
rolled into the city on a special train
just behind the morning train from
Charleston. & C. The Princeton boys spent
the day at the De Soto, arui took in the
principal points of interest around the
city. They’ visited most of the clubs and
seemed to have a good time generally.
The Glee, Mandolin and Banjo Clubs
of the university gave their entertain
ment last night at the Masonic hall. There
were about so> present, and It was an au
dience of culture and taste. The audience
was an appreciative one. too. and the col
lege men were encored for each selection.
They had to respond, too, as their hear
ers Insisted oil It. There were fourteen
numbers on the programme, every one
of them a gem. The programme was op
ened with a song by the Glee Club, "Old
Nassau,” led by Mr, John C. Kerr of the
class of 1896. Tho Glee Club presented
some fine voices, and the audience insist
ed on hearing from it again, as it did
whenever it appeared on the stage.
The best feature rendered by thf Glee
Club was the ’96 medley, a bright, catchy
and original composition by Mr. Kerr, the
leader. This rendition was warmly ap
plauded and well received. Delsarte by
Newman was well rendered by Mr. Kil
patrick, with tho Glee Club to support
him, as were also the dialect songs by
Mr. McLean, and the "Trumpeter’s May-
Song,’’ by Mr, McNish and the Glee
Club. •
The banjo club was led bt- Mr. Ralph I).
Smith of New York, a member of the
class ox ’96. This Is one of the strongest or
ganization of the kind ever brought to the
south. Its selections were exceptionally
good and very well rendered. The mando
lin club's music was as soft and sweet
as was heard during the evening. Each
of its selections was warmly received and
encored. This branch of the organization
was led by Mr. Scott McLanahan of Penn
sylvania of the class of 1596. In the last
selection on the programme, "Dinah
Deh,” by Mr. E. B. Smith, the entire
Klee club organization appeared on the
stage with excellent effect, and the ren
dition was a brilliant one. No audience
of the season has leen better pleased
with any entertainment, and there are
many- who wished the boys could have
remained longer In the city. They carry
with them a full football team, most of
the members of which are the members
of the regular Princeton eleven, and who
will play a game in Memphis when they
reach that city.
Mr. Fred T. Sauss.v of tho class of ’96,
son of Mr. J. R. Saussy, was along with
the Princeton hoys as a member of the
mandoline cltth. He was kept busy all
(lav showing his Princeton friends around
Savannah.
I’ROF. WILLIAM G. WOODFIN DE AD.
Hl* Death Unexpected and luoaed
Deep Sorrow.
Prof. Svilliam G. Woodfin died night
before last at the home of his daughter,
Mrs. R. A. Hinton, on the Southwestern
railroad, about forty miles below Macon.
Prof. Woodfin was the father of the well
know-n clerk of the city court of this city,
Mr. W. G. Woodfin. Jr.
Prof. Woodfin was born In Richmond,
' a " , c , t \ 31 * ls3l - graduated at Rieh
mond College, and also at the University
of \ irginia In 1856 he was elected pro
fessor of Latin and Greek at
Mercer University, which was then
located at Ptnlleld, Ga., and this
position he occupied until the fail of 1878,
when he went to the University of Geoc
gia, in the sun*- capacity, where he re
mained until 1890. He taught Latin and
Greek consecutively for thirty-six years,
and since 1890 ne has been engaged In ex
amining lands from a geological stand
poirvt for syndicates. His death was quite
a sudden and unexpected one, though he
has been suffering from dropsy for the last
eighteen months.
A few days ago he was apparently In
good health. Besides his son here, he leaves
three daughters, Mrs. R. A. Hinton, Mrs.
N. B. Carson of Kissimmee, Fla., and Mrs.
Boyenton of Hampton. Va. Mr. W’oodlin
left the city last night to attend Ills fa
ther s funeral though at that time he had
not been advised as to the arrangements
made for it.
Prof. Woodfin was well-known in Sa
vannah, and there are many college grad
uates who went to school to him during
his connection with Mercer, and with the
U niversity. He was known to all as a
generous, kind and courteous gentleman,
and one for whom the college l>oys under
his tutorship always had the highest re
gard. He was never known to vote to ex
pel a boy for being connected with any
mischief, it being his policy as he would
always say, to give the boy another
chance. His death will be a source of deep
regret to ail the aHumni of the state uni
versity as well as to his many friends
throughout the state.
