Tlie Kridge Across tiie Savanunli
River—Recent Improvcmcuiw.
It will be remembered that on the 18th of
October last the span of the bridge next to
the Carolina side over the Savannah river
gave way, with a wood train, and fell into
the river. A large force was at once put to
work, and on the 31st a temporary span had
been erected, so that trains could cross. A
contract was made with Wilkins, Post
Co. for the erection of a perma
nent span, and work was soon after
wards commenced, and the span has now
been completed. It is of the style known
as the Platt Combination bridge, and is ex
ceedingly strong and durable. A large part
of it is made of iron. It is capable of resist
ing a weight of 40,000 pounds to the-square
foot. The span is 158 feet in length. The
company is also having the remainder of the
bridge overhauled and put in thorough re
pair^ under the superintendence of Mr. Lind
sey, an old and experienced bridge builder.
New and heavy timbers have already been
put in a number of places where the slight
est decay was apparent in the old, and the
entire bridge will be made as solid and sub
stantial as possible. The long trestle lead
ing to the bridge is also undergoing repair,
and very heavy cross ties will be substituted
for those now in use. When the whole work
is completed, says the Augusta Chronicle and
Constitutionalist, the bridge and trestle will
compare favorably with any in the United
States. Captain Fleming, the energetic Su
perintendent of the road, is determined that
the Port Royal bridge shall be as strong, as
well as neat in appearance, as any other in
the country.
Opening «f tlic SUootins Season-A
Content Between Two “Crack
Shots.”
A few days since we made mention that a
contest was being arranged between two
well known members of the Savannah Rifle
Association. The details of this contest
having been perfected, the ban of secrecy is
removed, and we may now st&te that the
gentlemen are Messrs. D. M. McAlpiu and
Wm. M. Nichols, and that the contest prom
ises to be of unusual interest.
The Bhccting will take place on Monday,
April 8th, at 2:3Q o’clock p. m., at the
Schuetzen Fark. The uUtance 300 yards;
number of shots 100 off-hand, to be £red
in rouuds of five each, under the rules of
the National Rifle Association, and the
prize* will be a handsome piece of silver-
V The entrance to grounds will be fifty
cents and a special schedule will be run on
that da\ by the Coast Line Railro^a, tne
first train leaving at 3 o’clock, ft will be a
uretty and novel match, a test alike of the
endurance and skill of the partieipanta, and
will no doubt attract a large crowd of their
friends.
Spring tioods—Select Your Suits.
Mr. Charles Gassman, the well-known and
popular merchant tailor, announces In an
other column that he is now in receipt of
a portion of his stock of elegant spring
cloths, American and English, of the lat
est styles and designs, and will be
pleased to see bis old customers and wel
come new ones who are desirous of
procuring a handsome and well fitting suit.
These cioths are elegant in style, and are of
the very best quality. Mr. Gassinan is
known as a careful and experienced tailor*
and will surely give “fits” to all who call
upon him. YVe direct attentiou to the ad
vertisement, and advise all who desire to
procure a handsome, well fitting suit to call

Among the improvements ^
the construction of an ice depot on tbe
north side of Bay street, adjoining the
Knickerbocker Ice Company. The interior
is arranged on a common sense plan, the ice
box being in the centre of the floor, aud
thus the cold air is allowed to per
meate anywhere after the doors are
closed. This depot was constructed
under the personal supervision of
Mr. William Hone, and is intended by him
for the reception of the Aurora beer, the
beverage which is becoming so popular.
The ice house, we understand, can hold over
one hundred and fifty kegs of beer, and is
certainly one of the neatest and bes- ar
ranged houses of the kind we have ever
seen.
Paine Alarm of Fire.
About one o’clock yesterday morning an
alarm of fire was turned in from station No.
36, corner of Margaret and Farm streets.
The Exchange gong did not strike, owing
to some defect in the circuit, but a local
alarm was given from the Waver engine
house, which was responded to.
On reaching the locality stated, no bre was
to be seen, but the box was found
wide open, it is to be regretted that a stop
cannot be summarily put to the malicious
practice of giviits false alarms. It seems
that the plans that have been adopted are
not effective.
Returned.
Mr. W. S. Popple, well known as the Sig
nal Service officer of this station for years,
returned to the city a fetr days since, and
we understand intends locating here per
manently. His official position as signal
i weather) reporter brought him necessanl)
in contact with the Mokntn<; N E ws. and we
know h ; tn to be an energetic and clever
gentleman. Mr. Popple has been engaged
by .Messrs. M. F. Foley & Co, grocers,
where he will be pleased to see his friends.
A Peanut Merchant oil Hi. Ittaacle.
Magistrate Bussell Saturday issued a

him with assault and battery upon Henry
Young, colored. The dealer in the fragrant
fruit declined to give his name. Young as

him down and beaten him. In default ol
bail, the savagerous individual was com
mitted to jail to await trial.

The second anniversary of the New Hous
ton Street Church Sunday school was cele
brated yesterday afternoon at half-past four
o’clock with appropriate exercises. The
church, wffiich has been greatly improved
during the year, was packed to its utmost
capacity and was very beautifully and elabo
rately decorated, presenting a charming ap
pearance. The exercises were varied and of
quite an interesting character. The proceed
ings opened with the school singing the hymn
“Blessed River,” followed by the pastor
reading a passage from the Scriptures and
then prayer by Rev. R. J. Corley, of Trinity
Church. The hymn “There’s a Light in the
Valley” was sung with fine effect, after
which the report of Mr. W. H. H. Young,
Assistant Superintendent, was submitted
as follows:
SUPERINTEND UN T’3 REPORT.
It will be seen from the Secretary’s report
that there has been a gradual increase in
the number of our scholars during the year,
notwithstanding the fact that there are three
mission schools in this part of the city, two
of them not differing very much in faith
and plan of operation to our own, who oc
cupied the field before we came into it to
such an extent as not only to have a claim
upon the residents of this section outside of
the church, but also upon members and
children of our own persuasion, as teachers
and scholars, in a remarkably strong degree.
YY’e have not tried to sever them, as much
as we need the efficient services of the
former and loving smiles of the latter in our
own household of faith; for we regard the
work as God’s, not ours, and if our sister
churches can do this work more to the
glory of the Master than we can, we shall
raise no objection: but with “Thy will be
done” as our motto, nothing daunted, hope
to become more useful instruments in the
haud6 of God in instilling into the minds
and hearts and consciences of the young
and rising generation—the hope of the
country and church—true principles of
Christianity that shall live when time shall
be no more.
Our school is made up largely of very
small children, mo&t of whom entered this
school as their first, for we have not been
slow to keep the field well canvassed, aud
when any one moves out to find out who
moves in.
Beginning thus at the cradle, we
naturally expect, as time rolls on,
to gather into our school, by the grace and
wisdom of God, many who shall take upon
them the yoke, thereby adding to our
efficiency in the glorious Sabbath School
cause.
YY r e feel that we are filling an important
place; first, for the cause of evangelical
truth, and secondly, for our beloved
Methodism. YVe therefore call for the
moral support of all true followers of
Christ and for the material aid of the friends
of Methodism in the city.
YY r e enter now upon our third year in the
love of God—in the fear of God—and for
the glory of God—and feel that the history
of the past and our present showing, give
indications that our school is an established
fact, entitled to au honorable position with
our 6ister organizations in tlie common
cause of Bible intruction to the youth of
our city.
Our officers are faithful and our teachers
efficient and untiring in their zeal for the
cause. Harmony and good order prevails at
ever}’ session and in every department. YY’e
therefore look out upon the future with
bright hopes for the prosperity and success
of our much loved Sunday School. YYfe wel
come you all as friends, and invite your
attention now to the reports, speeches and
memoirs which are to follow.
Mr. Ketchum, the Secretary, then read
his report, after which the hymn, “To the
YVork,” was sung.
A pleasing feature of the exercises was
a brief speech or recitation by several of
the pupils. The first to “take the stand”
was petite Annie Harmon, five years of age,
who recited very sweetly a few lines, and
was followed by Masters Cravat, Tison and
Farmer, who did exceedingly well.
The hymn “Scatter Seeds of Kindness*’
was then sung, at the close of which Mr.
Alexander MacDonnell, one of our most
promising young citizens, delivered a very
able, interesting aud well timed address,
which received respectful attention.
The hymn “YY’ings of Faith” was sung,
when Mr. Young, the Assistant Superinten
dent, read the following
in memoriam of scholars.
YY’e have special reasons to thank God
that in the midst of all our afllictions we
note but four deaths from our ranks during
the year, viz.: Miss Annie Jerkins, teacher,
and Ammee A. Brown, aged 4 years 3
months 15 days; Maude Lucille Floyd, aged
5 years, of pneumonia, two sweet little darl
ings of Sister Young’s class, aud Oliva O.
Middleton, aged — years — months, a mem
ber of Sister Smith’s clasj. We might say
many touching words of each of these dear
children as remarkable, but time forbids. YY’e
witnessed the affliction of each,and they were
all three very great sufferers. Their teach
ers miss their smiling faces and give good
reports as to their behavior, lessons and
promise, and the whole school bow, with
teacher and parents, in submission to the
afflictions they have been called upon to
ebilute. Gathered thus fro in the sorrows of
earth they are rejoicing to-daj with Christ,
their Saviour, who said: “Suffer little chil
dren to come unto me, and forbid them not,
for of Mich iathAL-lnn^irt*" ’* 0,1
are angels in the heavenly schooi, of which
the Master is the Superintendent. Wi
mourn not that they have been transferred
to the heavenly mansions, but the rather
rejoice that they are eternally glorified; that
we count to-day three transfers from New
Houston Street Sunday School to the com
pany of the angels aud blood washed throng
that surround the eternal throne above.
At the conclusion of this tribute a quar
tette of the youngest little girls sang very
sweetly the beautiful hymn “I YY’ant to be
an Angel.”
Rev. Mr. Sinjmons then read the follow
ing;
in memoriam of teachers.
We have also been called upon to mourn
the death of one of our devoted teachers
since our last anniversary. The voice that
mingled with ours in the glad songs one
year ago will no more echo in these walls.
The youthful form, with such womanly
6earing, that sat at the head of her class
each Sunday, now lies in the city of the
dead. But the spirit life, the real, the un
dying, the sister lu Christ, has just gone
before us, and will soon raise an anthem of
praise in commemoration of her first anni
versary in heaven. Miss Annie Jerkins was
among the first teachers who took charge of
a class two years ago in this Sunday
School. She is the first teacher and
the only one whose vacant chair
of instruction is wreathed in mourning.
She joined the Methodist Church in early
youth, and was ever a faithful and con
sistent member. She was ever a dear lover
of the Sunday School—first as a scholar and
then as a teacher. She had acted in
the latter capacity in four different schools.
She began her work as such in a little mis
sion school in a suburban residence on the
Ogeechee road, not far from this place, and
from which in part it might be said this had
first a beginning. But the little springlet,
though bold and sparkling with brilliancy
for awhile, soon disappeared from view*,
but now reappears with another
title aud with additional force and in
creased momentum. Will it ever dis
appear again? YY’e would prophetically say
not, until it reachca the ocean of ’eter
nity. Many of the same workers are here
that were the.e. It was therefore natural
that this youthful but devoted teacher
should put in an appearance with the first
opening of this school. She was a teacher
for a short while in a little mission school or
ganized at the Abrams Home, and for years
as a teacher in Wesley Church, where she
held her membership.
She had not the advantages in birth and
education that many have, but, despite
these, rose to a position that commanded
quite an influence in the circle of her ac
quaintance ; and what 6he lacked in talent
she made up by fidelity and zeal. In her
family circle she was the soul and life, and
adding not inconsiderably to their mainte
nance. And though engaged in daily toil,
gathering her living at the point of the
needle, she ever found time to look up new
scholars and visit those that were sick. Not
uufrequently have 1 met her wat-ching and
waiting at the bed-side of her 6iek scholars.
Aud frequently did she bring the pastor
messages of who were sick, whq in need,
and where new scholars might be obtained.
More than nine-tenths of the conversa
tions i ever Ueld with her were of the
church and the Sunday School, nuring her
sickness her chief concern was about her
scholars, most of whom she had around
her bedside, urging them after she was
gone to be faithful in attendance upon the
Sunday School service.
Truly have we lost a model Sunday
School worker, so far, at least, as fidelity
and zeal were concerned.
And what higher station in life can a true
woman fill—to be a 6tay and a joy in the
house of her parents, aud with devoted-
ness and zeal a worker in the kingdom of
Uhrist f
It is the same »plrit that took the Mrs.
Judsons and recently Miss Rankin to the
heathen on the other side of the world.
Mary’s part was not only to sit at the Mas
ter’s feet and drink in the sweet words of
heavenly wisdom, but to go tell others, and
especially to lead tbe youth to the fountain
of all truth; by prayerful and patient in
struction to knit the youthful mind to the
blessed Saviour; to gather jewels for the
skies; to win souls that shall be
as diadems in eternal crowns of rejoicing.
This was followed by the entire school
singing “Shall we meet beyond the River.”
AWARDS.
Mr. R. B. Reppard here delivered to the
pupils who, during the year, had by their
individual efforts increased the membership I
of the Sunday School, handsome certificates I
as awards for their zeal and interest. 1
LIBRaRIAN’3 eeport.
Mr. Ely Otto, Librarian, read his report,
as follows :
The report of the Librarian must neces
sarily be brief, merely giving a statement
of the number of books coutained in the
library, and the average number taken out
by the scholars and teachers each Sabbath:
bat while this report may be meagre, no
one will for a moment dispute the fact that
the custom of furnishing the children of the
Sabbath Schools with good, suitable and ap
propriate literature, is not only of great im
portance to their moral training, but ap
pears to be an absolute necessity to the
growth and furtherance of the great aim of
the sfabbath Schools as auxiliaries to tbe
otiurch—namely, preparing the children to
take our places as we pass away from the
stage of action.
YY’e have in our library, all told, about 350
volumes; of this number, however, only
about 275 are in circulation among the
scholars. The number of bdoks issued each
Sabbath average from 40 to 50, being
selected mainly from the books of the new
libraries, purchased during last year. The
children generally seem to take a great in
terest in the library, and we are satisfied
that they all relish the beautiful and choice
volumes that have been purchased for their
use and instruction. May God give them
minds to understand aud comprehend the
truths they may receive from these
volumes, and at last crown them with a
home in heaven.
YY’e have expended fifty-five dollars in
the purchase of new libraries during the
past year. After substracting the missionary
fund and that expended for requisites the
pre^nt year for the Sunday School, we
learn from the trustees that we have
fifteen dollars as a nucleus to raise another
library fund.
YY’e would be glad if our friends present
to-day would help us swell that amount to
fifty dollars. It i£ much needed and we
feel safe in saying you could not help in a
better cause.
A collection for the library fund was then
taken up and a neat sum was realized. The
organ was presided over by Miss Florrie
YY'eeks, for the first time, in a manner that
reflected credit upon her proficiency.
The interesting exercises were brought to
a close by singing the hymn “Sing it Out
with a Shout,” and a benediction by the
pastor, Rev. J. YY’. Simmons.

A Lively Arrest.
At the instance of Richard B. Rice, Satur
day Magistrate Wade placed ia the hands of
officer Henry G. Green a warrant for the
arrest of Arm on Truebelet, on the charge of
assault with intent to murder. The accused
is quite a youth, and it is claimed threw a
brick at a little boy, striking him on the
head and inflicting a wound that may result
seriously. Officer Greene went to the boy’s
home to make the arrest, and upon making
known his mission, it is stated, was fierce
ly attacked by the boy's mother, the
boy taking a hand and eudeavoriag to cut
him. In the struggle, the officer’s watch
chain was broken. ~He then called a police
man to his aid, who responded promptly.
The pair were arrested and carried to the
barracks to await the proper warrants.
They were then brought before Magis
trate Wade, who committed the boy to jail
in default of bonds. The mother was com
mitted on the charge of obstructing a legal
process. Bail was subsequently furnished
and the parties released. The warrant was
issued on the affidavit of Constable Greene.
It is asserted that Truebelet acted in se lf-
defense, and that a knife was drawn on him
by tbe other boy before he threw tbe brick.
This will, however, come out at the ex
amination.
Foreign C’learancea.
The following comprise the clearances for
foreign ports from Savannah Saturday :
The Spanish bark Felisa, for Barcelona,
with 5,258 pieces pitch pine lumber, meas
uring 231,697 feet, valued at $3,141 71; 3,000
oak pipe staves, valued at $425, aud 100
bales upland cotton,weighing 50,638 pounds,
valued at $4,758 29. Total valuation of
cargo $8,325. Cargo and vessel by Messrs.
Charfcs Green Co.
The Norwegian‘bark Ragnbild, for Reval,
by Messrs. Ilolst, Fullartou 6c Co., with
1,870 bales upland cotton, weighing 880,339
pounds, valued at $81,Six). Cargo by Messrs.
Knoop, Hanemann 6c Co.
Tlie same firm cleared the Norwegian bark
Platon for Cronstadt with 1,525 bales upland
cotton, weighing 724,912 pounds, valued at
$73,150. Cargo by Messrs. Knocp, Hane
mann 6c Co.
Unfit lor Service—A <’a»e lor tlie
Louiwc Kins A*«oriation.
YY’e are informed that Saturday after
noon a mule attached to a country cart,
driven by a colored man, whilst dragging
his weary legs along State street, was over
come by exhaustion and fell to the ground.
The old darkey was for a time
nonplussed, but thinkiDg some stimu
lant advisable, concluded to give the
animal a dose of whisky and mus
tard. After swallowing this mixture the
animal, with some difficulty, was assisted to
his feet and continued his journey. On
reaching the corner of YValdburg and Whit
aker streets the poor animal again suc
cumbed and fell prostrate. Our informant
is of the opinion that the animal was unfit
for service.
Board of Survey.
A survey on the schooner John L. Tracey
by H. F. Will ink, master ship carpenter,
and two Port YVardens was held Saturday,
and tbe following recommendations made:
That the leaks be temporarily stopped or
caulked, and the vessel be taken out of the
dock, cargo discharged aud rudder un
shipped; the vessel to be then redocked and
put in a seaworthy condition.
On examination it was found that the
main keel and garboard-streak had started
the whole length of the vessel, and that the
stern post was also started. It will be im
possible to repair the schooner with the
cargo in.
We understand the Captain has decided
to make only temporary repairs and then
proceed on his voyage with or without cargo.
Inquest—Sudden Death.
An inquest was held Saturday afternoon
by Coroner Sbeftall upon the body of a
colored woman named Mary Martha Brody,
living about fourteen and a half miles from
the city, on the Louisville road, near Mr.
Jones’ place. On Tuesday last she was
seen in apparent good health, but being
missed by the neighbors, a search
was made. She was found dead in her
house, and the supposition is that she died
on Wednesday. After hearing the evidence,
the jury rendered a verdict of death from
heart disease.
Bankruptcy.
The following final discharge in bank
ruptcy was filed in the Clerk’6 office of the
United States District Court for the South
ern District of Georgia :
Lewis Cohen, of the firm of Cohen 6c
Kaplan, YY’aynesboro, Ga. A. Brandt, Au
gusta, Ga., solicitor.

The Late Accident on the Central
Kailroad.
Some of the passengers who were on the
train on the Central Railroad Friday which
was telescoped by the freight train were
naturally somewhat frightened, and repre
sented the accident as very serious. Iu
consequence of this there was an
impression, we understand, that the
account given in the Morning
New^ Saturday, and which was based on
official information, did not invest the
event with sufficieht importance.
The account in the News, however, is
borne out by statements made by passen
gers on the up train to the Macon Telegraph
and Messenger, which we present herewith:
“Telegrams of an accident reached the
city, but full particulars of the affair did
not arriye until the day passenger reached
the city last evening at 9:30 o’clock, two
hours and a half behind schedule time. It
seems yesterday monjMig the first night
freight ran into the rear end of the regular
night passenger train at station 3W, just
twenty-five miles from Savannah. A freight
train had run off the track between Macon
and Millen the afternoon previous, delaying
the passenger train and throwing it out of
schedule time. It was running on the sche
dule of the freight and had stopped to take
wood at tbe station named when the freight
ran into its rear end.
“The accident must have occurred after
six o’clock, but on account of the fog it was
impossible for the engineer on the freight
to see the train on the track just ahead until
too late. Two Pullman sleeping cars had
been taken on at Millen, and were of course
first struck. The rear platform was badly
crushed, and nearly all the bumpers of
the passenger train broken. Tbe engine
had its smoke stack broken off and was
otherwise damaged. The front freight
«*ar was completely telescoped bv the ten
der. The sleepers were quite full of passen
gers, who were badly jolted up by the col
lision. Conductor Jack YY’iiliams was thrown
down and somewhat bruised, but not even
seriously wounded. The engineer and fire
man of the freight train both jamped off,
and the fireman was slightly injured.
“The damaged rolliDg stock, including
the two Pullman cars, were switched off on
g siding and are still there. All the trains
on the toad went out regularly last night
and all damage to the track has been re
paired.”

The composition of the human hair has
never been accurately or satisfactorily de
termined. Chemical analysis has revealed
ts main constituents, but, as it varies es
sentially in different persons, and in the
same person at different ages, it is impossi
ble to determine with any accuracy exactly
what quality is lacking where a person be
comes prematurely gray, or what prepara
tion is best suited to restore the natural
growth and vigor where the hair falls out
so as to produce baldness. Hence it is that
all artificial preparations have failed, In
some essentialis at least,to meet the require
ments of a perfect hair restorative. There
are a number of excellent dressings and
washings, and scores of preparations that
are either indifferent or positively injurious,
and the great multiplicity of these furnishes
an argument in support of the fact that
there is something lacking in them
all. The new article, Carboline,
contains ail the qualities essential to a per
fect hair restorative, both as regards natural
color and a full luxuriant growth. The
basis of Carboline is petroleum, and in that
wonderful article, produced in Nature’s own
laboratory, are properties which the
chemibt’s art has not yet been able to com
bine, and which act like magic upon the
scalp, the follicles, and the various elements
of which the hair is composed. Its use as a
hair dressing is the greatest of modern dis
coveries, and there is no longer any reason
why the prematurely gray and the bald
should not, at a trifling expense, secure to
themselves that most desirable aud attrac
tive of all personal adornments, a luxuriant
and healthy growth of hair. Sold by drug
gists. «
Your “Carboline” restored my hair after
everything else had failed. I consider it
the best thing out for the purpose intended.
B. F. Arthur, Chemist, Holyoke, Mass.
It
“So Comforting and PleaMant!”
Exclaimed a lady recently who had worn a
Benson’s Capcine Porous Plaster for a cold
on the chest. The great success of the
article is due to the fact, that while it pos
sesses all the merits of the ordinary plasters,
it differs very much from them, as it con
tains an entirely new combination of active
vegetable ingredients of the most powerful
nature which causes them to relieve pain
promptly and cure where other plasters will
not even relieve. It is convenient to adjust
pleasing to wear and very inexpensive. For
neglected coughs and colds, rheumatism,
kiduey disease, female complaints, pains in
the back or sides, sciatica, lumbago, whoop
ing cough and croup, when applied in its
early stages,and all local aches and pains, it is
without doubt the best remedy ever devised
or known. When suffering from any of the
above diseases and ailments ask your drug
gist for Benson’s Capcine Paster. Sold
by all druggists. Price 25 cents.

From David Ashton, Savannah: “When
I commenced taking the Palmetto prepa
ration, I had become so reduced in flesh and
strensrth that I was hardly able to get out
of bed. I had been treated here and In
New York by several physicians for con
sumption, the result of a cold contracted
four or live years ago, while working at my
trade (blacksmith). My cough was very
distressing, and I expectorated very pro
fusely. After taking the Palmetto prepara
tion about two months, I am now in com
parative good health, sleep well, and am
able to work at ray trade.”
