Mr. D. X. Cameron and wife who. were
married by Justice Molina on Wednes
day at the Marshall House, returned to
Waithourville yesterday on the 4 o’clock
train.
Yesterday was one of the most pleasant
that has been experienced for some time,
and the streets were thronged withprome
naders, and Forsyth Park filled with
visitors and children.
A change is elsewhere announced in
the Telephone subscribers’ list. No. 149
will hereafter be J. K. Clarke A Cos.; No.
20# the Savannah, Florida and Western
Railway general office, new building.
The Superior Court for the March term
will convene next Monday at 10 o’clock a.
m. The grand and petit jurors for the

it Is understood that some criminal busi
ness which was to have been brought to
the attention of the last grand jury will
be submitted for the consideration of the
new jury.
The Clerk’s office of the Superior Court
is being thoroughly renovated and re
painted under the direction of Mr. John
G. Butler. The ceiling yesterday was
ealcimined, and was partially finished in
French gray. Meanwhile the clerical
force of the office is at work on the court
records in the office of the County Com

A communication from the Washington
etc am Fire Engine Company in reference
to the condition of their engine was pre
sented to the City Council last night. The
engine Is represented in a damaged condi
tion. and unless repaired at once will be
unfit for service. The matter was re
ferred to the Committee on Fire with
power to act.
The recent decision rendered in the case
of Gilbert & Sullivan, the famous operatic
composers, against Chas. E. Ford.manager
of Ford's Opera Company, for an injunc
tion restraining him from presenting the

right to produce the play. The decision
is interesting in that it settles the matter
in the favor of the public, who have been
awaiting its presentation by the Fords.
The company will appear in Savannah on

What is Diphtheria?
The name is comparatively new, but the
disease is as old as sin itself. It is a condi
tion of the throat something like croup,
only worse, because it attacks the sufferer
with such rapidity, and in such a way as
to stop the air passages. The throat is vio
lently inflamed, and a tough membrane,
like leather, is very rapidly formed. Perry
Davis’ Pain Killer has cured thousands
of cases of diphtheria. It acts so prompt

afford to be without it.

HUTCH LX SOX’B ISLAND.
The Connell Decide Against a renna
* nent Lease.
The City Council, organized as a com;
mittee of the whole, met in the Mayor s
office last night to consider the matter of
leasing Hutchinson's Island. The appli
cation was made at the regular meeting
of the. Board Wednesday night by Mr.
Woodward Barnwell, and asked a lease
of the property for a period of twenty-five
’ matter was referred to the Council as
a committee of the whole. There seemed to
have been considerable objection to grant
ing a lease for $o long a period of time.
In the occurrence of unforeseen events
the city might incur great loss. After re
maining in "session till near 9 o’clock, the
Council went into regular session in the
Ung room, and tile committee rejmrted
adversely to a permanent lease of the prop
erty, but recommended the Committee on
Dry Culture lie authorized to place the
island in a sanitary condition, and that a
temporary lease be effected for one year,
the city to be relieved from all responsi
bility for any damage that shall occur to
the "property during the extent of the
lease. The" report was received and
adopted, apd steps will be taken to make
a disposition of the matter.
The Relief Fund Sent Forward—The
Xeed of Further Aid.
The contribution of Savannah to the
relief fund in aid of the Western sufferers
was forwarded yesterday to the New York
Herald for distribution. It was imprac
ticable to secure an equalization of the
fund in the districts where it would ren
der the most effectual relief directly from
Savannah, as the city authorities in the
West refuse to accept charge of further
offerings. The Herald is in communica
tion with the local charity organizations
throughout the Ohio valley, and through
its distribution every dollar will be placed
where it is most needed.
The aggregate of the fund by
Mr. James Gordon Bennett is now over
$25,000, and it is being increased bv daily
contributions of S3.O<HPh $4,000. The ef
fort of the Herald in securing relief to
the destitute people is worthy of com
mendable praise. The situation in the
West is still critical, and especially in a
sanitarv* point of view, The ’’cold wave,”
which "has just passed over the valley,
has not assuaged the sufferings of the
homeless refugees, and with the approach
of spring and its changes of weather, and
the excess of moisture in the soil after
the inundations, a terrible danger
threatens the inhabitants. While no
startling epidemic has yet appeared.it may
break out at any time, and it is scarcely
possible that aii unusual amount of dis
ease and mortality can be averted unless
timely aid is extended to the needy and
vigorous measures be taken to provide
food and medicine, especially for the
small towns. Much has been done to re
lieve the Ohio valley sufferers from their
immediate and most pressing wants. But
with the boreal storms of March yet to
come, business unsettled, agricultural
operations all delayed, and. above all,
disease threatening to add its ravages to
the prevailing distress, much more than
spasmodic efforts can accomplish must be
doue to meet the grave emergencies of
their situation. The need of further and
immediate assistance is apparent, and
though the first fund has been forwarded,
tbe lists are still open for additional sub
scriptions.
A Stir on the East Side,
There has been some stir on the East
side during the past few days, caused by
the disappearance of a thirteen year old
lad named Elliott Payge, son of Joseph Y.
Payge, a car seater in the employ of the
Savannah, Florida and Western Railway,
living on East Boundary street, who left
■ iiis home Thursday and failed to return.
The boy was a pupil at the Chatham
Academy and left the school at 11 o’clock.
Ou his failure to return home at night
his parents became anxious as to nis
whereabouts. Inquiry was made and a
search was instituted and continued till
last night, when the boy was found at the
Washington engine house. It was
thougbtlie might have run away to join a
traveling minstrel troupe, as he had in
clinations toward the stage and was a
good banjo player.
High Toned Traveling.
Anew fashionable extravagance In
traveling is prevailing among tbe wealthy
classes of tourists. The Baltimore Sun
says the Pennsylvania Railroad officials
announce the custom that prevails this
season among Northern people of means
of taking their families to Florida in spe
cial palace cars. The business is quite
an item of railroad revenue. Many of
the through trains have one or more
of these special trains along. Thurs
day night the Pullman'car Davy Crockett,
a notably handsome establishment, was
run over "the Northern Central Road, with
Mr. F. W. Drake, President of the First
National Bank of Corning, New York, and
party, bound for Jacksonville, Florida.
A Keno incident—How the Tablet*
Turned.
Yesterday morning one of our efficient
county officers called at the office of a
prominent Bay street merchant and
served the bookkeeper with a summons,
to answer before the court upon the
charge of keno playing. The proprietor
unfortunately being present, the afore
said bookkeeper received a severe repri
mand, and was unpleasantly entertained
by a moral lecture ujgni the wicked ways
of young men. One hour afterwards an
other constable appears upon the scene.
The curtain tell, and the lights went out.
The proprietor received a similar docu
ment.
Competition with New York Hoiiaes.
Mr. John F. LaFar, the leading gentle
men's furnisher of Savannah, has just
completed the orders for the caps for con
ductors. brakemen and train hands of the
Savannah, Florida and Western Railway
and Central Railroad, and the delivery
has been made. In ordering these goods
Mr. LaFar competed directly with New
York manufacturers, and the award of
the order to a Savannah firm is not only a
valuable and appreciative. indorsement of
Mr. LaFar's business, but is a suggestive
compliment to the city, in being able to
successfully compete with New York
houses.

WHAT THE BUILDERS ARE DOING.
New Residence* in Coure of Erection-
Improvement* Throughout the City.
A detailed description of the building
improvements now being made in various
portions of the city would, doubtless, till
a couple of columns of the Morning
News. Some of the new structures are
of handsome design, but not sufficiently
advanced to admit of a full description at
present, and mention of them is de
ferred for the time. These improve
ments are not confined to one or two
sections, but are observable on all sides.
Notice was made a few days ago of new
structures erected in the southwestern
portion of the city, and of the completion
of the new genera! offices of the Savannah,
Florida and Western Railway Company.
There are several others more or less pre
tentious which go to show that capitalists
are not timorous but confident in their
view of the situation and prospects of
Savannah. Many of our readers are fa
miliar with the appearance of the house
which stands on the southwest corner of
Habersham and York streets, known as
the Woolhopter residence. It was built a
number of years ago. and is one of the re
spectable "landmarks in that por
tion of the city. A few weeks
since Mr. Frederick W. S. Wool-
hopter conceived the idea of having it re
modeled and-made into two tenements,
and work upon the plans was promptly
begun by Mr. J. J- MacMahon, the well
known contractor and builder, with the
assistance of Mr. Jno. R. Eason, who took
supervision of the brick work. It was
intended to have the structure finished
bv the first of - the present month, but
the late spell of rainy weather de
layed oierations. The improvements are
however, nearly done. The remodeled
structure apiiears as two residences of
ten rooms each in addition to a number of
closets. A wide and shaded piazza Las
been constructed across the rear of the
tenements, while an attractive portico
w ith a double stairway, leads from the
sidewalk in front- Nearly all the rooms
are large and well ventilated, and ap
pointed with fireplaces, gas and speaking
tubes. In each of the tenements there is
a bathroom and water closet and
all the modern improvements. One or
two large outbuildings, which formerly
took up a great deal of the yard, are being
demolished and will be replaced by small
er and more convenient structures, while
a great deal of space will be gained for
the vards. All the ceilings of the tene
ments are receiving heavy coats of plas
ter under the superintendence of Mr. P.
J. Gannon. The plumbing is being done
by Mr. H. Meyer, and the painting by Mr.
i Chas. Clark.
On the northeast comer of President
and Lincoln streets Mr. Frank Douglass
| is erecting two brick residences, each two
■ stories in height, to contain six rooms,
i The houses are not large, but will be
: cosy and well ventilated, and be a de
cided improvement to that part of the city.
On the north side of Hull, between Bar
nard and Whitaker streets, Mr. J. Wil
liams, the well known builder, has com
; i>leted the brick work of a large residence
; for the Champion estate, and Mr. Henry
Bartlett, the carpenter, is now finishing
) the material w ook word. This residence
is two stories high on a basement struct
ure. with a front of 35 feet, and a depth of
74 feet. The elevation from the grouud to
! the top of the cornice is 39 feet.
The exterior of the building will
: be finished in stucco and its
j front, relieved by a swell, ornamented at
1 the top by an octagonal roof covered with
! slate, aiid its apex crowned with finials
in zinc. A number of pilasters, finished
; with foliate capitals of artificial grey stone
, of anew design, will heighten the appear
ance of. the house. The base
ment contains six rooms with
lobby, and is well lighted.
On the east and north sides of the struc
ture there is a three story piazza under
cover with flights of stairs leading suc-
I cessivelv from the basement floor to the
floors in"the other stories, The hall in the
basement is 9 feet w ide and 30 feet In
i length. The elevation of the first story
is 12 feet. This floor contains a vestibule
j 3xtj feet, a hall 9x25 feet, a double parlor
and a handsome stairway of walnut and
I ash. The railing is of superior design
! and very handsome. The from parlor is
lCxl9jx and the back parlor 10x10 feet,
connected by Warner's patent folding
doors eight feet wide and nine feet high.
| The dining room on this floor is 15x191$
teet. and the butler’s pantry feet.
; The floor of the vestibule is finished with
Monton’s plain and encaustic tiles, while
■ all the other flooring in the house is of
I yellow pine.
The third 6tory has an elevation of
i eleven feet, and contains three large
| chandlers, a dressing room, bath room.
; linen room, water closet and other eon-
I veniences.
The house is being handsomely finished
, throughout after designs furnished by Mr.
i DeWitt Bruyn, the architect. The other
1 departments" of the w ork are under the su
jiervision of the following named gen
tlemen: Henry Bartlett, carpenter, ('has,
A. Cox. tinner; D. O’Leary, plasterer;
, Daniel O’Neal, painting; Chas. P Small,
plumbing; Andrew Hanley, doors, sashes
and blinds, and Messrs. Crawford &
Lovell, hardware. It is expected that this
residence will be ready for occupancy in
about two months.
Saving Life at Fire*.
A gentleman recently exhibited to the
Fire Commissioners of New York a most
excellent device for shooting a life line to
the roof or window ot a burning building.
The manner of throwing it is thus de
scribed: A Remington smooth bore car
bine of five-eighths inch bore is loaded
with powder aud an eight-ounce ball, to
which is attached a braided linen line and
several links of chain. In connection
with the line Is a rope ladder sixty feet
long and sixteen inches wide, every other
ring of which is a spreader for stiffening
if, which is to be drawn up by the life
Hue. Thirty feet of rope for the" purpose
of fastening it to any object, and also a
long sharp spike to he driven into the
floor for a fastening, and a hatchet
to drive It with, ye [also con
nected to the ladder. An eigty-foot
rope having “Turk’s head” knots at
about a foot apart, to be used for lowering
people to the ground, may also be attach
ed. For throwing down dangerous walls
this device is unexcelled. The line, lad
der, rope, etc., are all packed in conve
nient form, and may be carried on a hook
and ladder truck, adding but a few pounds
to its weight. The exhibition demon
strated that while the ball, without any in
cumbrance, could be throw n a distance of
1,500 yards or more, it could, with all
these impediments, be thrown a distance
of 150 feet, or considerable more than the
height of anv ordinary building. It is a
simple means when once the life line is in
the hands of a person whose life is in dan
ger to pull up the ladder or other means
of escape. Notwithstanding the great
number of telegraph wires that inter
vened, the life line was sent to the exact
spot designed. With such an appliance
in the service of a fire department, the
saving of human life would no doubt be
very great.
What Wo Eat!
There is no article that is more used in
the preparation of the food we eat than
! yeast or baking powder, and no article is
more generally extended and adulterated.
Any preparation that is used daily, con
taining the smallest particle of injurious
matter, will affect the stomach, and in
time destroy health, an® it is of the great
est importance that any article of such
continuous and universal consumption
should be strictly pure.
It lias Iteen found by chemical analysis
that most of the cheap baking powders
are composed largely of alum, which is
very injurious to the stomach, as any
physician will tell yon. Preston & Mer
rill’s Infallible Yeast Powder is perfectly
pure, l<eing neither extended or adult
erated, and in the interest of public health
we cheerfully recommend it to our readers.
No Humbug—Strictly Business !
A grand clearing out sale of clothing
which must be sold even at a sacrifice!
B. 11, Levy, the clothier, having a few lots,
odds and ends of last spring clothing, also
a few lots of the present season’s, is offer
ing the same at a sacrifice to sell them
out. as he must make room for his new

THE LUMBER INTERESTS.
A Satisfactory Settlement of Rate* with
the Railroad Commission.
The meeting of the Railroad Commis
sion called at Atlanta ou Tuesday, for the
hearing of complaints against the increase
of lumber rates, has been concluded, and
Circular No. 35 has been issued in re
sponse to the demand of the in
terests in the lower part of the
State. The circular recites that
as the railroad companies most
interested in the transportation of lumber
in Georgia are the Central, the Savannah,
Florida and Western and the East Ten
nessee. Virginia and Georgia south of At
lanta. and as the Savannah. Florida and
Western has, since July, 1882, been during
a part of the time voluntarily charging
an average of about one-half of class “I*”
rates, and is now voluntarily charging an
average of about thirty per cent, less than
class “P,” of the commissioners rates on
lumber, and as the Central Railroad is now
and has been 6ince October Ist, 1882, vol
untarily charging for hauling lumber,
twentv’per cent, less than class “P,” of
commissioners rates, and a*> the East Ten
nessee, Virginia and GeorgiaßailroadCom
pany, through its division superintend
ent.’has assured the lumber men ot its
willingness to haul lumber at less than
class “P” to and in the direction of Savan
nah and Brunswick, provided the com
mission would allow that road to charge a
higher rate when carried in the direction
of Macon and Atlanta, and as these three
great lumber hauling railroads have thus
indicated by their action that a less rate
than class “P” would not be unjust or un
reasonable, it is ordered:
1. That on and after Monday, April 2d,
1883, no more than class “P” of commis
sioners rates less twenty per cent, shall
be the maximum rates for lumber hauled
over the Savannah, Florida and Western,

The First Comet of the Year—Announce
ment by Professor Swift.
The recent discovery of another comet
has excited high hopes in the bosoms of
the thousands who have not forgotten how
invaluable the last luminary visitor was
as an excuse for carrying the evening into
the wee sma' hours. The new comet is
not visible with the naked eye, but so
much the better. It will give the married
men a show who go to the lodge and don’t
come home till morning to take in a good
share of the night on business, and the
young man who has been to prayer
meeting aud stays till 2 o’clock will
have reason to lift "up his heart in thanks
giving and bless Professor Swift for the
{ chance of lingering a Rule longer to gaze
at the comet, till he can’t tell whether it
| has; one tail or a dozen. Unhappy es
: trangements have occurred because some
men have persisted in pleading comet
gazing at hours when the celestial visitor
was not visible or when the clouds were
dense enough to hide dozens of comets.
It’s an unlucky day for a man when the
almanac or the weather enables a comet
to prove an alibi.
Immediately upon the announcement
of the discovery of a comet—whether
made in this country or in Europe—special
! circulars are printed and gratuitously
i and widelv distributed by the Rochester
■ Astronomical Society. By means of these
] circulars—which are issued in less than
one hour after receipt of news—every
newspaper and every professional and
| amateur astronomer in the United States
is informed of all the known details which
the discoverer is able to give.
The Morning News is in receipt of
! this circular announcing the discovery of
the last visitor as follows:
“A little betore seven o’clock on Friday
evening last, while Professor Lewis Swift,
Director of the Warner Observatory,
Rochester, Y., was scanning the west
: ern sky, he discovered a brilliant comet
located in the constellation of Pegasus,
near the star Beta. The new comet is
moving eastward and is very bright. This
is the first comet discovered during the
present year and also the first discovery
made by" means of the new telescope of the
Warner Observatory, which is the largest
private telescope in the world.”
"Enciulrer” Again in the Field—Hi*
Reply to ‘•Health.”
Editor Morning Newt: Aware that the
sultry, hot summer months are near at
hand, this discussion is to entice all citi
zens of our city to extra care and watch
fulness for an increased security of health
for themselves and families—a lessening
of causes engendering summer diseases,
more or less menacing their safety, gen
eral welfare and lives.
Thousands yearly are utterly reekless
in their acts "and mode of living. Is it
not right and Just to early caution all to
an increased prudence? Wishing to fill
but a small space in the columns of your
journal, I reply to my neighbor “Health.”
That one who truly loves his neighbors
cautions them against unseen and un
thought of dangers ahead.
I view alike a part of the eyesores hour
ly seen in our streets and lanes, and really
wish they could be kept in a more cleanly
i condition, with one exteption. that of
“slops.” “Garbage,” when so constituted,
may be disposed of to feed cows and hogs;
but what of the liquid “slops” of dish wa
ters and soapsuds, innocent ingredients
in their first stage-poisonous in a short
time? ‘-Health” must Know their market
able values. Is he desirous of imposing
upon the people the necessity of ridding
themselves of these fermented poisonous
tenants through their dirt-privies, street
catch basins and water closets? I
believe there is less danger in throwing
their compounds ujKin our sand streets
than in keeping them within the limits of
our households to ferment for hours, dajs
and weeks. Y’ou may believe the resi
dents will choose the quickest remedy
offered to free themselves from their sick
eniug stench. “Enquirer.”

Linen band collars for wearing outside
the collar of the dress are new and neat.
Velvet bodices are made with jockey
basques instead of the round cuirass
shapes.
Ottoman velvet very thickly ribbed is
the newest fabric for combining with

Extremely pretty embroidered silk,
muslins, crepes and gauzes are employed
this season for evening and ball dresses.
New black Spanish laces, with hand
run outlines of the figures, are to be fur

Sprays of flowers, beautifully imitated j

the place of the hideous insects so long in j

The prim and pretty fashion of making
the lace frill that passes around the neck
extend down the front of the dress also
is revived.
The novelty in spring styles consists in
all the trimming being on the skirt. The
overskirt is very light, ami only hemmed
on the lower border.
Cockades of satin ribbon, with many
straggling ends of uneven length cut in
tridents, trim the poke bonnets and felt

The popular design for woolen dresses
is the plaited skirt, lull short paniers and
jockey waist, or the cuirass bodice with
rounded tabs thickly braided.
Black tulle and lace dresses elaborately
made, and without any white about the
neck and arms, bring ont the delicate
tints of a fair complexion and light hair.
(told lace, in Flemish guipure designs,
with colored silk woven in the flowers
and leaves, are used on dark velvet bon
nets, and lirighten them very effectively.
Strawberry - buttons, imitating the fruit
in shape anil color, are used for trimming
red dresses, and there are blackberry but
tons of jet for black, blue and green
dresses.
Large plush balls suspended by silk
cords fill up the spaces lietween tabs and
points that edge overskirts. Bunches of
pom pons similar to the ball trim the dress
in other places.
Bands of green or red velvet are inter
woven with gold or silver braid in basket
plaiting to form small eapotel bonnets. A
panache of marabout feathers tipped with
silver or gold, and velvet ribbon strings,
are the trimmings,
Young ladies with low, well shaped fore
heads’turn the hair back all around in
loose waves, with here and there a curl;
they may also wear side parting, If the
hair grows prettily on the nape of the
neck, it is carried’ up high and wound
around in Psyche form and fastened by a
small ornamental comb of Rhine stones or
of shell. ,

A New Arrangement—lncreasing South

A change is announced in the steamship
service of the Merchants aud Miners*
Transportation Company, \>y which it is
probable the steamships McClellan and
Saragossa, heretofore plying betweeu New
York and Baltimore, will be transferred
to tbe Baltimore and Savannah service.
The Baltimore Sun of March 1 says:
“The Merchants and Miners’ Transpor
tation Company has withdrawn its New
York outside "line, and the steamships
will be put into the Savannah and
Charleston service. Mr. George J. Ai>-
pold, President, stated yesterday that the
arrangements have been made for taking
the boats off the New Y ork Une at once.
The McClellan and Saragossa have been
in this service. After overhauling they
will be started in the Southern lines,
which have so largely increased their
business that semi-weekly Iwats to Sa
vannah aud a boat ever}' five days to
Charleston are necessary. Tbe New
Y'ork Line was started several years ago.
when the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
menced cutting into the Merchants and
Miners’ businesss at Boston and in New
England. These differences have been
now accommodated. The New Y'ork busi
ness of the steamship company will be
cared for, and in turn the railroad people
will co-operate with the steamers in busi
ness at Southern seaports that seeks
water carriage. The railroad will respect
the New England territory of the steam
ship line. The Merchants and Miners’
