Improvement* at the Ga* Works.
The Savannah Gas Company are having
erected at their works, foot of Bay street,
anew, substantial retort house, which will
have all the latest Improvements and mod
ern appliances for the manufacture of gas.
The new structure will be sixty-four feet in
length by sixty-two feet in width. The
walls will be a brick and a half thick and
some twenty feet high, with slanting roof
made of iron and slate. The distance from the
ground to the highest portion of the build
ing will be thirty-eight feet. There will be
be eight benches of retorts, each having six
retorts, an increase of one over the number
in the present building, and of larger size.
The benches will be built near the centre of
the building so that the retorts can be fired
from both sides instead of from one side, as
is now the case. The veins for the manu
facture of the gas will be in the centre of the
building and all the chimneys will be under
the roof. The new retort h.rnse will be
thoroughly ventilated, and lighted by
eleven windows, which will render the la
bor of those employed therein much more
pleasant and comfortable.
The work is being done by the day, and
hence will be more thorough and better
done, and ample time will be allowed for
the masonry work to settle. The building
Is being constructed under the supervision
of Mr. J. H. Jones, the skillful foreman of
the Gas Company. All the plans and speci
fications were prepared by Wm. Farmer, a
competent Northern architect and engineer.
A New Wharf for the Baltimore
Steamer*.
We understand that the wharf known as
Lamar’s wharf, just east of the Ferry dock,
has been leased by the Merchants’ and
Miners’ Transportation Company, repre
sented here by Messrs. Jas. B. West A Cos ,
and will be used, when the necessary re
pairs have been made, as a wharf for the
Baltimore steamships. The wharf has a
front of about two hundred and
twenty-five feet by a depth of
about two hundred feet, and when
it has been put in thorough order and the
sheds are constructed will be one of the
most commodious and convenient wharves
in the city. We learn that the contract for
the repairs to the wharf and for the erection
of sheds has been given out, and that the
work will commence shortly and be com
pleted before the opening of the active
business season.

A Nucleus for a museum.
Mr. Peter Meitzler, of Lockbaven, Pa.,
who was lately on a visit to his brother, Mr.

black bear, a regular pet, which may
now be seen at the saloon of Mr.
Henry Sauer, corner of Bay and Jef
ferson streets. There were also &
pair of magnificent fancy chickens, which
are in possession of Mr. Thieme, the jewel
ler at Sack’s establishment on Congress
street. The collection might constitute the
nucleus of a museum, so to speak.
Floated Off All itiebt.
The steamer Centennial, which grounded
on Green Island Sound on Sunday, as pre
viously reported, arrived yesterday morning
about seven o’clock, having floated off at
high tide all right. No blame Is attached
to the pilot, as at the point where she
grounded the channel is very narrow and
winding, and at the time there was flood
tide. The marsh was covered with water,
making It almost impossible to find the
channel. She will leave this morning at
seven o’clock on her regular trip.

the crowd. His imitation of the pompous
drum major was excellent, and the side
show wss greatly enjoyed.

ed to prevent the gathering of insolent par
ties at the corner of Broughton and Barnard
streets every Saturday night there will be
some serious difficulty. There is great com
plaint in regard to this matter. It is the
duty of the authorities to see that the public
are protected from such loafers, and it can
easily be done by the infliction of keayy
fines when they are arrested.
The Complimentary Benefit Last
Night—A Fine Performance.
The Theatre last evening was filled with
an intelligent aDd fashionable audience,
the occasion being the complimentary
benefit tendered by the citizens of Savan
nah to tbe young ladles who so acceptably
personated the charmiDg daughters of
Major General Stanley in the “Pirates of
Perzance.” The opera has been given
several times heretofore by the same
combination of amateurs, under tbe
leadership of Prof. Chas. S. Mallette,
but never with more spirit and vim and
with greater satisfaction than last evening.
Tbe ladles and gentlemen 6eemed to enter
most heartily Into the spirit of the fascina
ting opera, and the result was a perform
ance of genuine merit. The audience were
thoroughly enthused, and were lavish in
their applause, testifying also their great
appreciation by complimenting Mabel,
Edith, Kate and Ruth with beau
tiful baskets and bouquets of
choicest flowers. There were several
encores, and everybody seemed pleased, de
lighted and proud that Savannah possessed
musical talent capable of producing such
an opera so successfully. Mrs. Clara John
sod, as “Mabel,” never sang sweeter or
looked more charming, and her tuneful,
clear voice, in solo and duet, completely
enraptured the audience. Miss Rachel
Ferst, as “Edith,” sang with rare expres
sion and force, and her melodious notes
fell upon delighted ears. Mrs. Berrien, as
“Ruth,” both acted and sang the part ex
tremely well, and the principal male char
acters, It Is needless to say, were well taken
and the scores capitally suDg. The choruses
were very good, and, In brief, it may be said
that the Pirates, the daughters, tbe General
and the policemen fairly eclipsed all previous
efforts, and that no praise of the perform
ance can be considered too warm.
We congratulate the ladies and gentle
men, and the accomplished leader and effi
cient stage manager, uoon tbe presentation,
and are pleased that there was a large, In
tellectual and appreciative audience present
to enjoy It.

‘•THE MAN THAT MISSES HIS
PAPER.”
How He Bear* the Disappointment
H Threaten* and Grow* Bar*
eaatte.
Strange as it may seem, there are times
when a daily newspaper office Is not the
paradise which many apparently Imagine,
and when the couch of the publisher is,
figuratively speaking, not “a bed of roses
bespangled with dew.” In fact, we may say
there are many annoyances connected with
the publication of a dally newspaper which>
despite the best management, the greatest
vigilance and system, cannot always be
avoided. These annoyances, however, sink
into lisignificsnce in comparison with
the sarcastic remarks which the news
paper man is compelled to bear meekly
from the man that misses his paper.
If there was only one man In the city
who occasionally failed to find bis favorite
journal in its accustomed place in the morn
ing, we might bear sarcastic inuendoes with
with some degree of equanimity, but It some
times happens that there are several of them,
and this will continue as long as there are
thleviDg street arabs, and goats with appe
tites for paper allowed to roam at large.
Occasionally the carrier may be taken sud
denly sick, and it is difficult to supply his
place readily, and hence subscribers on his
route miss their paper, but most generally
the papers are regularly served, and an in
vestigation would show that it had been
stolen, or bad made a palatable breakfast
for some ravenous billy goat.
The man who misses his paper, however,
does not stop to think of these contingen
cies; but Immediately becomes enraged, or
grows cynical and ironical. He rusbes
to the office, and forgeting
the customary friendly salutation, says in a
severe voice: “Look here, I had no paper
to-day, what’s the meaning of this? I’ve a
great mind to stop the News.” This threat
to stop the paper is made in a tone as
though our worthy friend meant it, and it is
not surprising that it should temporarily
occasion some demoralization in the estab
lishment, and cause attaches, who chance
to hear it, to tremble. What If this indig
nant gentleman should really execute
his threat and stop the paper, and
throw some seventy-five or hundred
persons out of employment, without a mo
ment’s notice, just at the time general busi
ness is slacking up and everybody Is pre
paring to enjoy the excursion and picnic
season. The prospect is too terrible to con
template, and we drop the veil over the
harrowing scene with the hope that when
he cools off, this worthy citizen (there are
several of them, as A. Ward would say),
will reconsider the matter, and not stop
the Nxws.
Another man, who falls to get hl6 paper
in time to scan its contents while enjoying
his breakfast, is not so foolish as to utter
such a threat, but he Indites a postal,
and very sarcastically inquires, “Why
did you not issue a paper this morning?”
“What’s the matter?” “I didn’t get mine.”
Now this satirical gentleman (and there are
also several of him, so to speak) knows full
well at the time he pens the words what the
matter 16; that his paper has either been
stolen, or that the carrier, through sickness,
has failed to leave It. But being disappoint
ed himself he takes malicious pleasure in
attempting to make newspaper folks feel
bad, by intimating the suspicion that there
was no paper Issued. These’ cynical remarks
are hard, of course, to bear, and only by faith
in a happy hereafter is the sweet serenity of
temper and philosophic resignation that
characterizes the journalist maintained.
Another citizen, who has probably not
missed receiving his paper in a year, wake*
up some morning and lo! it is not there. He
mad; forgets the fact that he has had
his paper every morning, rain or shine,
summer and winter, regularly month after
month, and rushing to the office demands
excitedly : “What the deuce is the matter
with you folks ? I didn’t get my paper to
day. Were you all off on a frolic?” Now, this
Is unkind and unjust, and the severely, sati
rical manner In which the Indignant sub
scriber glares at the clerk is calculated to
make him feel that he had committed some
fearful offense. The subscriber is satis
fied; he imagines that he has placed the
entire establishment under a ban by his
witty Intimation that something waa wrong,
and then that innuendo that he missed his
paper because everybody waa off on a frolic
was so crushing. The reflecting and more
generous subscriber will at once perceive
what Christian resignation is necessary un
der such circumstances.
We might mention hundreds of other
such remarks or messages, but it is un
necessary. The subscriber who capped
the climax and displayed ? ■* thorough
knowledge of bitter irony, took the cruel
advantage when surrounded t v a crowd to
propound the following: “Cos .found it, 1
missed my paper again to-day. Blame If I
believe the Nbws fa publishing any Savan
nah edition at all.” [Just think of the
amount of sense embodied in this assertion ]
And yet he acknowledged afterwards that
he had only missed two papers in seven
months. The public may learn from this
how sweet and pleasant Is the life of the
newspaper man.
We appreciate the disappointment that
a subscriber experiences when he fails to
get his paper at the regular time, and
everything that experience and vigilance
can suggest is brought Into requisition to
perfect the carrier system. The complaint
U one which is of dally occurrence In every
large newspaper office, and is no evidence
of carelessness or negligence. As we have
stated above, In many Instances the papers
are left by the carriers and are stolen. An In
stance is called to our remembrance. A lady,
for many years a regular subscriber of the
Nkws, some time 6inee changed her resi
dence. A few days after her removal she
missed her paper. Inquiry developed the
fact that it was regularly left by the carrier
in the place designated, but the thief could
not be detected. One morning, having oc
casion to be up earlier than usual, she went
into the parlor, raised the window
and threw open the shutters, when to her
amazement she discovered an elderly gen
tleman whom she recegnized as living In
the Immediate neighborhood, stealthily
leaving her steps with the coveted paper in
his hand. Doubtless there are many
missing papers which could be similarly ac
counted for.
Whenever the fault is with this office
it will be readily and promptly remedied
on notification, and the missiEg copy will
be replaced. We regret equally as much
as our subscribers such annoyances, but we
must protest that it does not justify the in
dulgence in such withering, scathlDg and
crushing remarks and messages as are often
made and sent. It makes us feel bad, you
know, no the good subscriber will do it
any more.
If a citizen orders a barrel of flour or a
hum, or any supplies from his grocer, and
they are net delivered at the time appoint
ed, would he rush down to tbe place and in
quire in a savage tone if the establishment
had failed or was in the hands of the Sheriff,
or even threaten to stop the business be
cause his goods had not reached him. We
think not, for he might be considered non
compos mentis.
Tnere is a moral here, but we will not
farther descant upon it.

The Steamer Katie on the Klver
Again.
The favorite river steamer Katie, which
has been laid up for some time for repairs,
will resume her place on the line between
this city and Augusta to-day (Tuesday),
leaving on her first trip at six o’clock In the
evening. The principal repairs have been
completed, and she now presents a greatly
Improved appearance. There are some
finishing touches in the ornamental
line yet to be done, but workmen
will be on the steamer aud will be
able to complete these while she
is running. It was the Intention of the
owners to have had everything in complete
order before placing the steamer on the route
again, but they concluded, in compliance
with the earnest solicitations of people
living along the river, to Ist her resume
her trips as soon as the principal repairs
were finished.
Her machinery has been completely over
hauled and put In thorough order. Tbe
wheels have been enlarged, and the saloon
given an increased width of two feet, aud
one foot in height. rendering
it more epacious and attractive and secur
ing batter light and ventilation. The glass
for the windows of the saloon has been
ordered from tbe North and will consist of
three colors—red, blue and white. The
upper deck has been lengthened fifteen
feet, and the forward hurricane deck
lengthened four feet, widened six feet, and
adorned with a winding stairway easy of
&CC6BO.
A tine smoking room, twelve by fifteen
feet, has been built on the front of the
upper deck and is a very cosy, attractive
place, which will doubtless prove very
popular with the passengers. Two
new patent life boats and a life raft
from Wilmington, Delaware, have been
added to the equipment of the steamer.
The improvements already made add great
ly to the appearance, but when the orna
mental wood work is placed in position and
the fresco painting and ornamentation of
the saloon is finished, the Katie will be the
handsomest and most attractive boat that
has been on the Savannah river in many
years.

Editor Morning News: The centre of South
Broad street covered with grass, and over
arched with trees, when viewed from either
end, represent* a boulevard or avenue of
surpassing beauty, inviting an extended
walk beneath Us cool and umbrageous
shade. But as appearances are often de
ceitful, and “distance lends enchantment to
the view,” so it Is in this case, which tbe
promenader will soon discover. Before he
advances two blocks he will encounter deep
muddy cuts traversing it at the Intersection
of the streets from the travel of drays and
wagons, which It will not be pleasant
to cross, bringing his enchantment to a
speedy end.
To obviate this difficulty, and construct an
uninterrupted shelled walk through its
whole length, would be a desideratum, in
view of the paucity of good walks In the
city, that running aloDg the Old Cemetery,
from the Police Barracks to Fireman’s Hall,
being the best.
This can be done by cutting a walk of
suitable width, say about ten feet, through it,
and shelling, the cuts alluded to to be filled
up to a level with the main surface, and
shelled, designating the points at each al
ternate street over which drays, etc., etc.,
might cross, such crossing to be filled up
with some hard material which would resist
the action of the drays and preserve their
form.
This pleasing scheme, with a little addi
tional care given to the points crossed by
vehlclee, would give a delightful shelled
walk throughout the entire length of this
beautiful street, which would add to the at
tractions and enjoyment of the Forest City.

Why we are the leading clothiers of fine
goods and low prices: Because in buying
of us our customers get their clothing from
first hands and do not pay a Jobber’s profit,
as we manufacture all our clothing. We
have six branches to manufacture for. We
buy all our goods for cub and sell low for
the same. Our motto is quick sales and
small profits. We can afford to sell low. as
