THE UPPER RICE MILL.
Its Capacity Increased by the Introduc
tion of New Machinery.
As the busy season approaches efforts
are being made to meet® the require
ments of the prospective large business
which is expected ty most of our mer
chants to be far greater than last year.
Among the most notable improvements
made to meet the requirements of the
times, are those recently instituted by
1 Major N. O. Tilton, Superintendent of the
i Upper Steam Rice Mills, for the better
I and more expeditious pounding of rice.
There have been placed in these mills
i six pairs of McKinley’s crank mortars,
four of which hold ten bushels ot rice,
and eight which contain eight bushels
| each. These mortars are a great improve
ment ui>oii the old style. They are con
; strut ted to hold equally well either soft
j or good rice. The object of these mortars
] is to combine the two plans together—the
! drop pestle and the crank—in order to ac
j commodate patrons who prefer either
i plan.
In this arrangement an advantage is
obtained which will be heartily appreci
ated by both planters and factors. The
I capacity of the mill with these new im
j prnvements, will lie from 2,000 to 2,500
! bushels per day.
In the construction of the new mortars
time, labor and expense will be consider
| ably lessened, nearly all the handling of
i the cereal lieing done with screws instead
; of by hand. The rice is taken from the
i crank hoister by screws and delivered to
the elevator by drop i>estle; heretofore
the grain was shoveled from the mortars
to the elevators.
With this improvement in the milling of
rice, loth the planters and factors will
i save time in handling the crop.
Tlie Site for the New Jail.
Aldermen O’Connor and Minis, of the
City Council Committee on Public Sales
and City Lots, and County Commissioners
Walker, Casey and Estill met yesterday
for the purpose of deciding upon the
space necessary for the erection of
the new jail, it was found that
an area of 180 feet on Habersham street
by 106 leet on Perry street lane, immedi
ately adjoining the Police Barracks',
yard, would afford ample room for
a suitable building. The committee
agreed, recommending that the proji
perty be sold to the county. The plans for
the new jail are not yet prepared, but we
understand it is the intention of the
County Commissioners to build after the
most improved design, the architecture
and general plan to lx* such as will give
the building the appearance of a private
edifice, effacing its prison out
line so that they will not
Ik* seen trom the streets or adjacent
houses. The location, in proximity to the
iiolice barracks, will afford additional se
curity.
There is considerable opposition from
tbeownersof property in the neighborhood
to erecting the jail on this site, and a
petition is now before the City Council
protesting against the sale of the lots for
*uch a purpose. There are also rumors of
an injunction to restrain the County Com
missioners from building on the site
should the lots be sold.
New Colors for the Liberty County
Guard*.
A representative of the Morning News
was shown last evening the design for a
handsome ensign for the Liberty County
Guards, one of the oldest military organi
zations in the State. The rich mate
rial of which it will be made
will lie embroidered in silk and
chenille. On one side will be the
coat-oi-arms of the State of Georgia, and
on the reverse will l>e the figure of a
mounted cavalryman, representing one of
the old Guard. The flag will be shortly
finished, and will lie used for the first
time at the grand national prize drill,
which will take place next spring. It is
being made by Mrs. M. Kolb, whose ex
i>erienee in such matters is unexcelled.
The embroidery work alone will require
at least a week’ol patient toil, and, when
finished, the flag will no doubt tie one of
the handsomest ensigns in the country.
Beaufort Want* the Game.
Beaufort puts in a claim for the next
game between the Dixies and the Au
gusta Browns. The Meos of that place
says: “It having become known that the
deciding game of base ball between the
Dixie Club, of Savannah, and the Browns,
of Augusta, would be played at some
point outside of either city, Mr. J. H.
laneey. the enterprising proprietor of
the Sea' Island Hotel, with commendable
spirit, wrote to the respective clubs sug
gesting that the game be played in Beau
fort. With his usual liberality. Mr. Clan
cey offers to entertain the two nines at
his hotel free of all charge from the even
ing of arrival until tin* morning after the
game. Should the proposition lie favorably
entertained by the ballists they will find
the trip very pleasant, and a large num
ber of visitors from Augusta and Savan
nah may lie expected.”
First Trip of tlie “M. M. Cooper.”
The steamer M. M. Cooper made her
first trip to this port from Stokes’ Bluff
yesterday, under the command of Captain
Fleetwood, bringing as large a cargo as
the low water would permit. It is report
ed that the machinery worked smooth,
and that the trip down was made in very
good time, though the boat was not driven
at as high a rate of speed as the capacity
of her engine would allow. The freight
consisted of 280 barrels of rosin. 5 barrels
of spirits turpentine, 1 case of eggs and
:t bundle of bides. The steamer will leave
the city this morning and go as far as
Beckett’s Bluff.
Death of a Former Savannaltian.
A telegram was received yesterday af
ternoon, addressed to the Upper Steam
Rice Mill, announcing the death of Mr.
Joseph Jones, formerly a resident of this
city, and who died in the New York Hos
pital early' yesterday morning. Mr. Jones
at one time was employed by one of the
rice mills in this city, but for years past
had been living in New York. Colonel
John Screven telegraphed the fact to the
sister of the deceased, at Jacksonville,
last night.

THE STRIKE ENDED IN SAVANNAH.
Tlic Operator* Petition for Reinstate
ment—The Vaeancies Filled and As
signments Made Elsewhere.
The telegraph strike ended in Savannah
yesterday. Although a firm position has
lieen maintained by the strikers hitherto,
signs of weakening have been visible for
two or three days. The petition of Dun
don for reinstatement on Thursday was
followed yesterday by the entire torce.
The petitions of A. B. and F. P.
Hernandez, and H. Ziegler, formerly
chief operator, were received yester
day morning and A. B. Hernandez
and Ziegler resumed work here at noon.
The remainder of the force will lie sent
elsewhere. Messrs. Watson and King
will go to Jacksonville this morning.
Mr. Rath goes to Washington. Casev and
F. P. Hernandez are yet unprovided for.
They will, however, lie assigned to duty
in a’ few days. All ot the vacancies in
the Savannah office are now filled, and
business is lieing transacted with the
same facility as before the strike began.
On lieing questioned as to their action,
one of the leading members of the Brother
hood said last night:
“Since the return of Charleston ami
Augusta there was no use standing out
any longer. These offices broke us all up.
It we didn’t return men, would be sent to
till our places, and we would be left out
entirely.’’
“Did vou receive any support from the
Brotherhood?” asked a reporter.
“None until last Thursday, when we re
ceived a draft for SSO. This would give us
$8 25 each. We were promised a dollar a
day, but promises were all we got. Our ap
peals were unanswered. We were out of
funds, and with no chance of receiving
any from the Brotherhood, we went
back to work.”
This action on the part of Savannah
and the break at Charleston, Augusta
and Jacksonville virtually ends the strike
in the South. The men return without
conditions as to pay. Some of them re
ceive their old salaries, while otlmrs fill
j such places as are vacant.

! they may deem necessary. They were
also instructed to urge upon the railways
bringing naval stores to this market the ne
cessity for a reduction of rates of freight
on ros'in for the remainder of thejseason.
The committee consists of the following
gentlemen:

How the Brennans Went to the Wall in
Florida.
The trip of the Brennan Base Ball Club
is closely watched on its way to Savan
nah. To-day the members will play the
Browns at Augusta, and the game there
is looked forward to with a good deal of
interest. An account from Pensacola,
where the Brennans were whitewashed
on Tuesday, says: “The Mallorys and the
Brennans crossed bats this afternoon, ac
cording to a pre-arranged programme.
The game was the most interesting ever
played in this section. Up to the eighth
inning neither nine had scored a run. On
their ninth inning the Mallorys scored a
run, which was followed by a whitewash
on the Brennans, making the score: .Mal
lorys 1, Brennans 0. The game was ele
gantly played on both sides. The names
of the Mallorys are: Kelley, catcher;
Muller, pitcher; Hudson, short stop;
Whitehead, first base: Matthews, second
base; Spotswood. third base; Bover, left
field; Lebanon,centre field; Rauch, right
field. There was an immense crowd of
people in attendance. In the game with
the Mallorys the Brennans made three
base hits while they made five. Landry
and Mundiuger were the battery. The
Brennans took their defeat good huinor
edly and will invite the Mallotys to New
Orleans.”
Hank Weeds.
Editor Morning News: I very often in
your excellent paper see accounts of the
valuable work done by the Sanitary Com
mittee. and the great lienelit we have till
derived by the organization of same, and
of which 1 knoir but little. There is in
every community sanitary work to be
done that should be promptly attended to.
This communication is to call the imme
diate attention of the proper authorities
to the condition of the Old Cemetery on
South Broad street. It surprises me that
our police, who are daily examining the
yards and premises of citizens, and who
quickly complain if they have cause, can
sleep so quietly with such a field of rank
weeds immediately under their noses as
there is in the Old Cemetery.
Citizens on the north side of South
Broad street at times cannot with any
comfort and satisfaction sit on their
stoops or parlors on account of the smell
of rank weeds that arises from the above
place. Now 1 think something ought to
be done to abate the nuisance. Let those
who remain at home and cannot go to the
mountains and springs enjoy the blessing
of our southern breeze without being con
taminated with foul fragrance of rank
weeds. A Subscriber.
A Voice from tlie Poets.
In the long ago, Thompson, the Poet of
The Seasons, drew a picture of summer
diseases:
“Then, wasteful, forth
Walks the dire power of iiestileut disease,
A thousand hideous fiends her course attend,
sick nature blasting, and to heartless woe
And feeble desolation, easting down
The towering hopes and all the pride of man.”
Mighty pretty as poetry, but the discov
ery of Perry Davis’ Pain Killer has rob
bed summer complaints of their horror.
Thompson wouldn’t paint such a picture
now. He would be like all other sensible
people, moving serenely about amid sum
mer scenes, with the confidence that a
bottle of the great remedy would circum
vent any attack of the -‘thousand hideous
fiends.”

THE PROTECTION OF COTTON.
Action of the Railroad Commission—
Provisions to be Made at all Stations
—The Central’s Warehouses in Savan
nah.
The order of the State Railroad Commis
sion, issued about two weeks ago, requir
ing sheds for the protection of cotton to
lie erected at the terminal and way sta
tions of all railroads in Georgia, appears
to have received the unqualified indorse
ment of all the leading factors aud
planters. The idea was suggested by the
committee of the Savannah Cotton Ex
change last June.
A representative of the Morning News
called on some of the principal factors
here to ascertain their views in connec
tion with the order referred to, and was
informed that for some years cotton has
been delivered bv planters at way stations,
where it remained sometimes two and
three weeks, and when received here the
bales were frequently short in weight anu
damaged by the weather. “This loss, ’ re
marked a factor, “fell upon tlie
planter. In some instances the farmer
had been known to have come over twenty
miles with his cotton, when he was in
formed by the agent that the road had no
cars on w hich to load, and lienee could
not give a receipt for it. The
planter did not care to return home w ith
the cotton, and was compelled to throw
the bales on the ground, where they were
exposed until the railroad made it conve
nient to take them. Meanwhile somebody’s
cow would eat several pounds of the
staple, or a thiet would extract a quan
tity, or a number of rainfalls would follow
and damage it. . „ . ,
“The attention of the railroad officials
was called to a provision in tlie law
which compelled common carriers to give
receipts for the staple when tin* would-be
shipper should demand them. The agents
were then instructed to give receipts
when the planter made the demand,
though many planters were unaware of
the law and failed to take advantage of it.
“On the Central Railroad enclosures
were provided to exclude cattle, but the
fences did not keep out the rain or the
thieves.
“The Savannah, Florida and Western
Railway has provided sheds for the stor
age of the staple, and its liberality has
been duly appreciated.”
Another factor remarked that he was
glad the order had been issued at last,
lie added that the roads should have
erected the sheds long ago, for lie believed
if tlie cotton were better protected in
transit more planters would feel encour
aged to cultivate it. He further observed
that if it paid the roads to handle the cotton,
a sufficient number of cars forming a cot
ton train should daily call at the stations,
and thus insure the prompt delivery of
the staple.
The Central Railroad has received an
order from the Commission to erect sheds
within sixty days. While a compliance
with this order necessitating the erection
of 150 sheds would be impossible in so
short a period of time, yet tlie company
will take measures for the better
protection of the staple. In Savannah
adequate provisions have already been
made, and planters and those interested
will have no reason to complain to the
road of its lack ot facilities for protect
ing and promptly moving cotton at any
point on its line.
The large area land in the vicinity
of the Ocean steamship wharves lias been
made subservient to the interests and
growing business of the Central Company.
The News representative made a tour
of inspection yesterday morning at the
wharves in order to obtain information
relative to the new cotton warehouse now
nearing completion, making the fourth in
number which has been erected in Savan
nah by tlie above road, in order to expe
dite tlie handling of the great staple.
The special object of the road in build
ing these large, commodious warehouses
is to afford protection against all kinds of
inclement weather. The complaint that
the merchants of Savannah, in common
with all parties in Georgia, interested di
rectly or indirectly in cotton, have
against the railroads is the w ant of protec
tion for the article against bad weather.
This advantage, with many others, has
been contemplated in the buildingof these
warehouses, and the doing away with tlie
slow and tedious delivery of the staple to
drays will very considerably expedite mat
ters in the handling of the great bulk of
eotton which for years past has been al
lowed to remain on open platforms sub
ject to all kiuds of weather and delivered
to merchants slowly and by a very diffi
cult process.
The total area covered by these ware
houses is sixteen acres. The sit** se
lected is on Wad ley street, south of the
river front and in close proximity to the
railroad and the steamship wharves, and
adjoining the three warehouses which
were built last year. The first, which is
known as No. i, is situated away from
the others, on Wadley street and the ca
nal, and is 300x246 feet, w ith a capacity
of 9,000 bales, and is rented by Messrs.
W. tV. Gordon & Cos.
No. 2 warehouse is leased by Messrs.
11. M. Comer & Cos. Its dimensions are
200x490 feet,with a capacity of 6,000 bales.
No. 3 warehouse will be occupied by
Mr. F. A. Garden. This building is square
300x900 feet, with a capacity of 3,000 bales.
No. 4 warehouse will lie used by Messrs.
Baldwin & Cos. as soon as it is completed,
which will be about the Ist of September.
Its are 200 teet square. In
point of finish, durability and capacity,
these w arehouses are beyond doubt the
best in the State. They ace built of the
best Macon bricks, over 2,750,000
having been used in their construc
tion, while the foundations are con
structed of the liest Savannah bricks;
they are covered with metal roofs, making
them perfectly fire and water proof. An
excellent feature in connection with
these improvements is to lie found in
the long and roomy interior for the
proper handling of the staple, giving the
shipper plenty of room and excellent
light. Another great advantage is the
construction of long platforms, running
the entire length of the buildings, for the
expeditious delivery and receiving of cot
ton.
The total cost of these immense struc
tures is $135,000, which, if the opinion of
our merchants and general factors can be
taken, is one of the best moves made by
the Central Railroad for many years past
for tlie protection of one of their largest
and most profitable sources ot freight
traffic.
Something About Bread-Making.
By the process of bread-making it is in
tended to convert the (lour of certain
grains into a cellular structure, in which
it is most easily chewed, saturated with
the fluids of the mouth, and digested. In
order to arrive at this end, alcoholic fer
mentation is resorted to from olden times,
by introducing the same in the dough by
means of brewers’ yeast. Thus a small
part of the flour is converted into glucose,
which again is translormed into alcohol
and carlionic acid. The lormer is recog
nized by its peculiar vinous odor, ex
haled by the loaves, when sufficiently
raised. Both gases produce the raising
of the dough—t. e„ the porous and spon
gy appearance.
By this fermenation the Hour not only
loses weight, but the bread also attains
qualities which may injure the process of
digestion.
In order to evade these inconven
iences, chemists have long ago searched,
to impart the spongy structure of the
dough by other means than yeast, re
spectively by substances evolving gase
ous bodies, or which, in the oven are
transformed into gases themselves. To
the best known belong the bicarbonate of
soda and cream of tartar, certainly well
known to all housewives. Aiid with re
gard to most of the baking powders of the
trade, they are mainly preparations con
taining these substances. However, it
cannot be said of any ol them that they
exert a lienetieial influence on the system,
not to speak of the adulterations, to which
most of them have lately been sulyeeted.
We are glad to learn that Prof. K. .V.
Horsford, of Cambridge, Mass., who held
the chair of chemistry in Harvard Uni
versity, invented some time since, a bak
ing preparation forming an exception to
those spoken of, which has already at
tained universal reputation.
The idea by which l’rof. Ilorsford was
guided, was not only to furnish a substi
tute for brewers’ yeast, but also to pro
vide those nutritious constituents of the
flour lost in the bran in the process of
bolting. These ate the so-called phos
phates, which are also the nutritive salts
of meat, and of the utmost importance
for the building up of the organism. If
we take into consideration that the nutri
tive value of wlieaten flour is from 12
to 15 per cent, less than of the wheat
grain, and that this loss is now rostored
by l’rof. Horsford’s invention, then we
niust look upon it as of the greatest na
tional economic importance. As Justus
von Liebig, said: “The result is the same
as if the fertility of our wheat fields had
been increased by one-seventh or one
eighth.

RAILROAD RUMBLINGS,
Bright Flashes of Intelligence from Near
and Afar.
The Air Line Road to Columbus front
this city will soon break ground, and, in
conjunction with this project, there are
rumors afloat relative to a direct steam
ship line to Europe.
The immense traffic and commerce of
the port of Savannah demand new and
extensive outlets for iter increasing and
growing trade,-and sooner or later will
these demands be complied with.
The tonnage for the State of Georgia,
according to the last census, was 13,331
tons, with a valuation of $1,387,300, the
bulk of which is operated and controlled
in this city.
These figures speak volumes, and point
to a speedy growth ot Savannah as an
important and growing port of entry.
At Thursday’s meeting of the Rate
Committee of the Southern Railway and
Steamship Association no general action
was taken as to Atlanta rates because of
the action of the Executive Committee
the day previous. That action ordered a
compilation of statistics ot all tlie lines
leading to Atlanta, giving rates to points
where Atlanta meets tlie competition of
other cities. When these statistics are
complete there will be another meeting of
the Executive Committee and the Rate
Committee to review and consider the
whole matter. At the meeting yesterday,
however, it was agreed to reduce present
rates on bagging and ties three cents from
Eastern cities to Atlanta. The new classi
fication will be printed and ready for is
sue by September Ist.
About thirty thousand dollars have
been raised tor the Athens aud West
ern Railroad, and only a small sum
more is needed to insure its completion.
The grading will be begun soon. A Bos
ton capitalist lias made a proposition to
equip the road as soon as the cross-ties
are put down.
The East Tennessee, Virginia and Geor
gia Railroad will soon begin to use their
passenger depot in East Rome.
The deeds for the right of way for the
Rowland’s Bluff Railroad to Newnans
ville, Fla., have been filed in the clerk’s
office.
What is known as the Vanderbilt sys
tem, when completed, will lie the greatest
system in the world, and will reach the
most productive agricultural, manufac
turing and commercial territories in this
country, it now consists of the New York
Central and Hudson River Railroad, 450
miles: Lake Shore, 550 miles, double
track: Canada Southern and Michigan
Central, 550 miles, double track; North
western, 4,500 miles; Nickel date, 500
miles, or a full 5,500 miles of double and
quadruple track, not to speak of thous
ands of miles of sidetracks. In addition
to ins large interest in these roads, Mr.
Vanderbilt has blocks of Rock Island and
Burlington stocks.
At the railroad meeting at Statesboro
last Monday, after a few remarks, a
motion was offered and carried that the
meeting be deferred until the first Monday
in October, in order to give the various
committees more time to view routes and
decide definitely upon the most advan
tageous route.

~ARNOW.—Died, of paralysis, in St. Marv’s,
Gu„ March 81, 1883, Mrs. Jane Ann Aknow,
wife of lion. J. M. Arnow, at the age of 18
years.
She has left us, but we have to submit to the
will of our Heavenly Father. She was to
those around her a true friend, a loving wife,
and a kind mother; her whole aim in life was
to do good anil never take a despondent view
of life; sympathetic herself, she highly ap
preciated sympathy from those she loved.
Her last words were those of kindness to the
afflicted ones around her bedside. The exam
ple she left is a mark that will stand like the
rock of ages. On the morning of the day she
died she repeated, in concert with her hus
band and children, the Lord’s prayer. We
shall always miss her. She cannot come to
us, but we can go to her if we are faithful.
She leaves a sorrowing husband and four
children to mourn her death. How pleasant
it is to think that when her dust returned to
earth, her spirit had already reached the
Heavenly shore, where the “wicked cease
from troubling, and the weary are at rest.’’
“Where, where is the arm that once pillowed
my head,
And the ear that once heard me complain';
Other hands may support me, gentle accents
may fall;
For the fond and the true are still mine:
I’ve a blessing for each—l am grateful to all,
But whose care can be as soothing as thine?”
