THE NEW TIME.
The City Clocks to be Set Back to Con
form to the Standard Time To-lay—
How the New Order of Thing* i*
Looked rpon by Manufacturers and
Merchants—The School* and Street
Hallways.
In accordance with the resolution in
troduced by Alderman Thomas at the last
meeting of the City Council, and adopted
by that body last Wednesday night by a
vote of * to 4. the Keeper of City Clocks
will to-day set back the time pieces in the
Exchange and the Independent
Presbyterian Church, and the city offices.
SB minutes.
The change will be mad? at 12 o’clock
m.. that is to sav, when it shall be 12
o’clock by city lime the time-pieces will
be set back to indicate 11:25 o’clock,
which hour will be the standard railway
time to which the city clocks will con
firm after that hour.
The railways adopted the new or stard
ard time on the 1-tii of last month, since
when all the leading municipal corpora
tions, banking institutions, express com
panies, etc., throughout the country, have
adopted it. and those of their employes
who formerly were compelled to com
mence work at T o’clock ill the morning
have since begun their labors for the dav
at C: 2”. o’clock a. m. by the standard time.
A number of firms have hesitated to regu
late their time-pieces by the standard
f. r the reason that during the winter
months their hands would not have suf
ti -i.-nt light bv which to work until about
T o’clock, hence the firms claimed that
they would virtually lose the services of
their employes about thirty minutes
each day. ’other firms adopted the
time and in order to tie indi
rectlv compensated for what they
designate as iost time have signified their
intention to advance the price of their
manufactures. Whether the leading
manutactories of the country will also
advance their prices on manufactured
goods is a question not definitely an
swered. The adoption ot the new time
bv all the leading industries will, how
ever. lie followed by an adjustment of
prices so that consumers will not suffer
on account of the change. In this city
the hours ot manufacturing and mercan
tile houses, the public schools, the street
railways, the banks and the city offices
have been regulated by city time, but
after 11:25 o’clock this morning they will
be regulated by standard time. In fact,
the banks will open this morning at 9
o’clock standard time and close jat
2 o’clock in the afternoon. After to- ay
all the employes of the city, who here
tofore latiored from 7 a. m. to 6 o'clock p.
m., will begin work at 6:30_ a. m., old
time, which virtually means 7 o’clock in
the morning, taking the time by the city
and railway clocks after to-day. These
employes will cease their labor in the
afternoon at 0 o'clock, standard time, or at
5:40 o’clock p. m., old time, lienee, under
the resolution introduced by Alderman
Tuomas and adopted by Council, all per
sons who have been in the habit of w ork
ing for the city from 7 o’clock in the
morning until 6 o’clock in the evening
will, to-day only, have .’su minutes in their
favor.
An Eminent Actor.
The engagement of Thomas W. Kt*ene
at the Theatre this week is awaited with a
groat deai of interest. That Keene is an
eminent tragedian no one will deny.
*inee his debut as a star in Chicago three
years ago, Keene lias engaged much of
the attention of American patrons of the
staire, who have watched his progress
with uncommon interest; and it is
safe to say they find no reason to think
that he has fallen short of the promises of
that opening performance. He has played
in all the principal cities of the South and
West, and everywhere received unmis
takable evidence of popular favor. Of
his work, au old dramatic critic writes:
••Those w ho have seen Keene from his first
season on, and in every character in
his repertoire, will admit that he is au
actor of no ordinary ability, l’erhaps no
other on the American stage can so com
pletely sink his identity in the part he
assumes. Keene is almost free from ob
jectionable mannerisms, and his jierfect
command of voice and mobility of face
make it all but impossible for the specta
tor to recognize the Hamlet of to-day in
the Gloster of yesterday. It is not Keene
the actor one sees, but Keene’s concep
tion of the part; and while that concep
tion may not accord with ours, we can
but admire its intelligence and the art
with which it is interpreted. One of the
most enthusiastic of Keene’s admirers has
written that his faults were only spots
on the sun. Another said that he
flashed upou the world like a meteor, but
to remain a fixed star; and, less the
exaggeration, this is to a great extent
true. There is an earnestness, and force,
and withal a magnetism in his work that
leaves one little disposition to carp at
minor imperfections. lie carries his au.-
dience beyond the domain of detail, and
they must accept or reject him as a whole.
Cniike many latter-day stars, Keene did
not have to learn the alphabet of his pro
f -sion after his name was printed in
black type on the bills, lie was educated
in the" best stock companies of former
days, and beginning at the bottom of the
ladder was compelled to learn almost
every line of parts named in the dramatic
dictionary before he attained even the
dignity of a leading man.”
The Merchants and the sidewalks.
The near approach of the holidays and
the enormous stocks of holiday goods that
have been purchased !>v the merchants of
Savannah are evidences that large sales
arc anticipated. In order to display their
goods to the public the leading merchants
of the city petitioned the Council at its
last meeting for the privilege of a portion
of the sidewalks for the period of two
Weeks, beginning to-day. The petition
was considered by Council, and after some
discussion as to tlie manner in which the
ordinance prohibiting the obstruction of
the sidewalks could be disposed of, passed
the follow ing ordinance:
••That the ordinance passed in Council
April.2s. relative to obstruction of side
walk* by the displaying of dry goods, etc., be
suspended from the lOtn day (if December to
the 24th day of December, INS3, utxm condi
tion that tlie space occupied bv dealers in dis
playing their goods shall not exceed three
teot from stores on sidewalks, and not exceed
three feet from curb towards street."
The Council is disposed to extend to the
merchants such privileges as is consis
tent with the convenience of the public,
and it is probable that the merchants, in
availing themselves of the privilege
granted them, will not exceed the limits
of space which they are allotted.
Buried at the Monastery.
The funeral of the Rev. Father Daniel,
an account of whose sufferings and death
appeared in the Sunday News, took
place at St. Benedict’s Monastery yester
day afternoon, and was attended by the
the Right Rev. Bishop, and the Vicar
General of the Diocese, a large number of
priests and many people from the city.
There were also a number present from
the residents of the island and Isle of
Hope. The services took place at 12
o’clock, the Bishop officiating. The in
terment was in the burying ground near
the Monastery. Father Daniel was high
ly respected and esteemed among the
priesthood, and his untimely death is la
mented not only by the clergy, but in the
place he had labored.
A Chance for Christmas Slippers.
Messrs. Joseph Rosenheim & Cos. will
display to-day the largest and handsom
est assortment ot ladies and gentlemen’s
velvet and cloth slippers that they have
ever shown in Savannah. Their stock
comprises a large assortment in designs
especially ordered for the Christmas
trade. They will make a specialty of
this class of goods, in addition to their
other large and general stock, during the
next two weeks, and an excellent oppor
tunity is afforded to make holiday pur
chases.
Pl'<&t*hek** Opening.
Mr. K. Platshek's Christmas exhibition
opens to-day, and an invitation is extended
to his patrons and the public to call and
see his splendid assortment of goods for
the holidays. Mr. I‘latshek has made a
feature of these occasions, and his cus
tomers look forward to them with pleasant
anticipations.

WXXTHIK
THE SCNSET PHENOMENON.
Its Appearance In Europe and on the
Seas —Study by Astronomers and
Scientists.
The mysterious appearances preceding
sunrise and following sunset, which have
attracted so much attention during the
past few weeks, are still as much of a
mystery as ever. Last night the heavy
bank of clouds and a slight rain that
fell over the city, excluded the phenome
non from vision. The fact that the red
light has been observed in England and
other parts ot Europe shows
that it is not due to local influences.
The phenomenon has not only been visi
ble over an immense extent of territory,
but it has lasted several days, and has
leen seen in the east before sunrise
as well as in the west after sunset, so
that any abnormal refraction in the at
mosphere would have to be of almost in
credible persistence in order to account
for the observed appearances. Besides,
during this time there have been consid
erable atmospheric changes, especially in
respect to temperature. These remark
able sunset displays have also been ac
companied by a notably hazy appearance
of the skyj
A scientific authority says it is well
known that the earth is daily and nightly
pelted with millions ot meteors, the vast
majority of which are almost instantlv
consumed by the intense heat developed
as they das’li into our atmosphere. The
products of the combustion ot these
meteors filter slowly down through the air,
and have been found in the shape of me
tallic dust on the snow fields in the
Arctic regions, on mountain peaks in
Europe, and in other similar localities,
being recognizable by their peculiar
chemical composition. It is also known
that the sol.tr system abounds with
swarms ot meteors revolving around the
sun, and that the earth crosses the paths
of a number of these, occasionally en
countering the swarms themselves.
The vast majority of these meteors are
very small, those that are seen weighing
on an average probably only a few grains;
and since the telescope reveals millions
which escape the naked eve, it is reason
able to conclude that millions more are
too small to be seen even _ with
telescopes—mere meteoric dust. There
are historic instances of supposed
falls ot meteoric dust, the most remarka
ble, perhaps, being that of I<B3, when
Europe, part of Asia, aud part of North
America were covered for months with a
dry fog or haze, which excited the great
est alarm. I’ror. Brooks' suggestion that
the earth has encountered a cloud of me
teoric dust is not, therefore, without
foundation in probability.
If the recent blazing sunsets have really
resulted from such a cause, they are likely
to continue, in a modified form, for some
time, gradually disappearing as the dust
sinks lower in the atmosphere. But,
although so many reasons can be ad
vanced which give probability to the
theory that meteoric dust is concerned in
the production of these strange sunset
effects, yet it cannot lie considered as
proved, and some better explanation may
be offered. Whatever the true explana
tion may turn out to be, however, every
body seems to agree in the opinion that
the red glare in the west during the last
three or four evenings has been one of the
most singular spectacles beheld in the sky
for many years.
Tlie I'niteil States Court Judgeship.B
Public interest in the matter of Judge
Erskine’s probable successor on the United
States Court bench is revived as the time
approaches when that gentleman's re
signation is expected. The Morninx;
News some time ago gave the names of
several prominent members of the bar
who were aspirants to the Judgeship.
This list now embraces the names of Hon.
John D. Cunningham and Col. George s>.
Thomas, of Atlanta, and Col. C. P.

and among the Democratic element Hon.

Hon. J. S. Hook, of Augusta.
The resignation of Judge Erskine, al
though looked for at au early day,has not
yet been announced, and the situation is
ii very indefinite one. There may be
other candidates in the field, but no oth

lioly announced.

It does seem pretty rough that when a
man wants to be quiet and jog along in
the “even tenor of his way” folks won't
let him do it. I moved some time ago,
got a big store and a big trade, thought all
I had to do was to attend to the wants of
customers and add to my business and
reputation. Now they are going to pull
down the building near me anil fill up the
sidewalk with bricks and plastering and
rubbish and the air with dust. The
trouble begins next month. In the inter
val I propose “to make hay” while th'ngs
are in repose, and to do it have pulled the

CITY IMPROVEMENTS.
The Work ot Laying Out New Streets
South of Anderson Street.
At the time the Tamacraw tire occurred
the city authorities were about preparing
a plan for laying out the city south of
Anderson street. The fire, however, made
the long-talked-of improvements of the
thoroughfares in Yamacraw a possibility,
and the entire attention of City Council
was given to that important question.
The details for that matter are now settled
and the streets will be opened and widen
ed as provided in the ordinance.
The work of laving off the city south o 1
Anderson street will now be pushed for
ward without further delay. Col. W. J.
"tVinn. an experienced engineer, has been
engaged to assist the City Surveyor, Mr.
J. B. Howard, in preparing a plat for the
new part of the city, and will enter upon
the duties of his office this morning, lhe
first thing to be done, it is undrstood. is
to prepare a map showing the
location of all improvements within the
extended limits. When this is done a
plan interfering as little as possible with
such houses, lots and streets, will be.pre
pared. The idea is to extend all the streets
running north and south, and make tlie
cross streets atxiut as wide as Broughton
street. The progress of the work will be
looked forward to with interest by our
citizens.
