Ad Unfounded ltumor.
It has been reported for some time in
railroad circles that a conference would
be held in Charlotte, N. C., this week be
tweeu the officers of the Central Railroad
Company and the Seaboard Railroad sys
tem. of which John M. Robinson, of Balti
more, is President, to determine tbe
question of aiding in the construction of
anew road connecting the Augusta.
Greensboro and Laurens Railway, which
is controlled by tbe Central with
the Carolina Central, owned by the
Seaboard system. The Carolina Central
will be completed to Spartanburg, S.
bv June 1. leaving a gap of fifty miles
between Spartanburg and Shelby, which,
were it filled, would make a complete
chain between North and South. A
Morning News reporter called upon
President Raoul yesterday in regard to
the conference, ( apt. Raoul replied that
he had been advised of no conference, and
that the only knowledge he possessed in
regard to it was what he had seen re
ported in the newspapers. There was to
lie no conference of the officers for that or
any other purpose.
Small Show and Small Crowd.
The glove contest by “Eighteen of tbe
World's Champions,” announced by
flaming hand-bills and a band-wagon cov
ered with posters, to take place at the
Base Ball Park yesterday afternoon, at
tracted between fifty and seventy-five
people witliin the enclosure and the usual
crowd "f bovs in the trees on the outside.
The onlv ' noticeable attraction was !
a sicklv sluggling match be
tween Black Alt and Black Harry,
two unevenly matched negroes,
who pounded each other about the lot for
half an hour to the apparent delight of
the few wh" had paid their money to see
the show and were bound to get some
thing in return for it. The impression
among some that John L. Sullivan was a
member of the company was dispelled
when the nature of the exhibition was
discovered.
Note* of the National Game.
The base ball nines are practicing daily
for the opening of the playing season.
The L'.xies have been in practice for over
a week, and are developing a strong

likely a series of games will be played
between tbe i-lubs bl both cities. A club
was organized in Charleston on Tues
day night with the following officers:

The Baltimore Sun says of the company
iu an engagement in Baltimore: “That

most popular candidates for public favor,
despite the fever beat of politics, is ren
dered abundantly manifest by the large
audiences that throng the Opera House
every nighu The performance is all that
a minstrel programme is capable of being'
in the line of attractiveness. The music
and wit are both fresh, and where old
songs are reproduced they ate such as are
called for by the public in irresistible
tones."

FEAST OF THE PASSOVER.
Celebration of a Great Festival In tlie
Jewish Church.
Hie Hebrew feast of the Passover, or
feast of the unleavened bread, was cele
brated last night in commemoration ot
their deliverance from the Egvptiau
bondage. This being one of the three
great festivals of the Hebrews, it is marked
by unusual ceremonies aud rejoicing, dis
played iu tbe religious services of the
Synagogue and household.
The Liturgy for divine service con
tains an historical narration of the bond
age and deliverance of Israel, tbe soul
stirring songs of Moses and Miriam at tbe
Red Sea. with selections from the Proph
ets and Psalms, glorifying God in eloquent
tones for His mercy and kindness mani
fested to the enslaved sons of Jacob.
After service, on returning to tneir
home, the family are seated around a table
on which several dishes of unleavened
bread are placed, emblematic of tbe hasty
departure of their ancestors from Mizraim,
the shank bone of a lamb, in memory of
the Paschal lamb, an egg roasted on coals,
symbolizing the oppression and wrong en
dured for 400 years, bitter herbs and a
green herb illustrating the bitterness of
the lives of their forefathers, and the fresh
ness with which their descendants should
always cherish the remembrance of their
enthralment and freedom. The symbolic
food having been partaken, the meaning
of each symbol together with a history of
the festival having been minutely recited
by the master of the house, the family
then unite in hymns and songs of praise
and rejoicing, commemorative of the
birthday of liberty to their race. The rich
and the’ poor, the* high and the lowly, oc
cupy places at the same table, to listen to
the wonders and mercy that the Deity
displayed to Israel, who, enslaved for
centuries, He chose to make “a peculiar
people,” living witnesses of His omnipo
tence and unity throughout the world.

A YoVnG THIEF.
A 14-Year-Old Boy Robs Ills Employer
of S2OO in Jewelry.
Last night about 10 o’clock Policeman
George T. Dunham arrested a negro boy
named George Wright, about 14 years old,
at the instance of Mr. A. F. Flint, the
Cougress street jeweler. It appears the
boy was in the employ of Mr. Flint as a
porter and messenger. For some time he
had been suspected of stealing watches,
chains and rings from the show cases.
When arrested nothing was found upon
him to prove the theft, and it was stated
that some of the property which he had
stolen was returned to Mr. Flint
prior to his arrest. The extent
of his thefts, it is thought, will amount to
nearly S2OO. Other parties are suspected
ot being implicated w ith the boy. and will
be arrested. Wright was lodged in the
barracks, and will be brought before the
Mayor this morning.
Laying tlie Corner Stone.
Yesterday afternoon Armour Lodge Xo.
1884 , colored), G. U. O. of O. F., headed
by the Union Cornet Band, assembled for
the purpose of laying the corner stone of
their hall. After marching through
the principal streets, they proceeded to the
corner of East Broad and Harris streets,
where the ceremony took place. The
Noble Grand of Armour Lodge, J. F.
Jones, introduced P. G. M. John A. Por
ter. who, in a short address, stated the
object of thuir demonstration, after which
the ceremony appropriate to the laying of
the stone was performed.
The stone consists of a solid piece of
granite, eight and one quarter inches
thick, twelve inches wide and eighteen
inches long, with the following inscrip
tion cut thereon: “Armour Lodge, Xo.
ISS4, G. U. O. of O. F. Chartered August
12th. 1878. Erected April 9th, 1854.”
There was a receptacle in the stone for
the purpose of depositing such treasure
and emblems of the order as were pre
sented, and quite a number of old coius
were obtained. After this part of the
programme the stone was securely ce
mented in its position, and during the
performance of this duty several
odes were sung by the members.
The entire ceremony was performed by
Armous Lodge, assisted by the Past
Grand Masters CouncU Xo. 60. None of
the other lodges of the city participated.
The affair was well conducted. The
structure is to be of wood, fifty feet front,
sixty feet deep and three stories hi£b.
The lower floor will be fitted up suitable
for stores: the second floor to be a long
hall for the use of the lodge and other
purposes, and the third floor to be used
exclusively for the transaction of lodge
business. It is expected the building will
be finished by the middle of June.
Fichlinc Chickens for Big Money.
A cocking main at a well-known resort
in the southern part ot the city was a
counter attraction to the pugilistic per
formance at the Base Ball Park yes
terday. A number of the sporting
fraternity are in town from Atlanta,
Brunswick, Augusta, Macon and other
points in the State to witness the
fiyht. Twenty-one birds are entered by
both sides, and sixteen matches were
made yesterday. Two birds were fought,
and the main will probably last several
davs. Considerable money has been
staked on the result. The conditions of
the main are SSO on each fight and SI,OOO

THE CITY GOVERNMENT.
BASE BALL BOUNCED FROM THE
PARK EXTENSION.
How the Aldermen Kook at the Matter
—The Bicycles Allowed Full, Swing—
The Barber Ordinance Defeated—Cem
etery Regulations—Appointment of
Sanitary Inspectors— Increasing the
Health Officer's Duties.
The question whether the Park exten
sion shall be used as a base ball ground
was decided in the City Council last night
by the passage of an ordinance prohibit
ing its use for that purpose. The privi
leges of base and foot ball playing and
bicycle riding were granted by the Coun
cil several weeks ago. The Park grounds
since that time have been the resort ol
crowds of negroes and boys, whose bois
terous conduct has excluded the presence
of ladies and children, and has been a
nuisance to the residents of that part of
the city. .
The Council, after the usual preliminary
caucus, met in regular session in the
long room, the Mayor presiding and a full
board present. In introducing the mat
ter of the Park extension nuisance, Aider
man Thomas offered the following ordi
nance:
Ax Ordinance to prohibit the playing of
ball in the extension of Forsyth Park
SECTION 1. The Mayor ami Aldermen of the
Citu of Savannah, in Council assembled, do
hereby ordain. That from anil after the pass
age of this onliuanee it shall be unlawful for
any person or persons to play any game of
base-ball or foot-ball, or auyganie of ball,
iu the enclosure known as the extension of
Forsyth Park, in said city; and any person
playing or joining in any game of base-ball or
toot-ball, or any other game of ball, in the
said extension, shall, on conviction thereof in
the Police Court of Savannah, be lined in the
sutn not less than $lO nor more titan S2O, or lie
imprisoned not exceeding ten days, or either
or liotli. at the discretion of the officer pre
siding in said court.
Sec. 2. -4nif the said Mayor and Aldermen
do hereby further ordain. That all ordinances
or part ol ordinances conflicting with tins or
dinance be and the same are hereby repealed
so far as they so conflict.
Alderman Wilder asked unanimous
consent that the ordinance be passed to a
second reading, which was granted.
Alderman Hamilton said that while he
fully approved of the ordinance he was
in favor not ouly of prohibiting base ball
in the Park extension, but he was also
in favor of repealing all the privileges
granted by the ordinance passed a few
weeks in which bicycle and tricycle
riding was permitted, and he therefore
moved as a substitute an ordinance carry
ing out his suggestions.
Alderman Hanley said he could see no
reason why bicycles should be excluded.
He had heard no objection to their use
there, and while he was opposed to base
ball and foot ball playing, be was in favor
of extending the privileges of the exten
sion to the bicyclists.
Alderman Thomas said he saw no
reason why they should not be allow
ed, The class of people who ride bicycles
is an orderly class, composed chiefly of
young gentlemen who are justly entitled
to the privileges of the Park.
Alderman Wells wanted to know w hat
the Park extension was for, if not to be
used as a place for recreation. If uo en
joyment could be got out of it he was in
favor ot selling it for city lots.
Considerable discussion followed in re
gard to the matter. Alderman Hamilton
finally withdrew his amendment and the
ordinance was unanimously passed.
The Committees on Health and Ceme
teries and Police reported upon the com
munication from the Chief ot Police, read
at the last meeting of the Council, asking
medical attendance at the barracks for
the prisoners, that the Health Officer be
charged with that duty, and that he be
instructed to that effect.’ The question as
to whether tbe adoption ot the report
would be a sufficient means of attaching
the duty to those already performed
by the Health Officer, was referred
to the Corporation Attorney, who
said that he was not aware that any fur
ther step was necessary, but that an ordi
nance would cover the case. Upon mo
tion of Alderman Hamilton the report
was adopted, and the Corporation At
torney was instructed to draft an ordi
nance carrying out its recommendations.
THE BARBER SHOT ORDINANCE.
The ordinance permitting the barbers
to keep their shops open on Sunday until
12 o’clock was put upon a second reading.
A petition, signed by a majority of the
barbers of the city, asking that the pres
ent hour of closing be adhered to was
read.
Alderman Hamilton wanted to know
whv anv definite hour for closing had
been fixed.and why particularly 10 o’clock
had been prescribed by the ordinance as
the closing hour.
Alderman Mell replied that when the
ordinance was framed the hour of church
service was 10:30 o'clock, and to allow
the shops to be open at all on Sunday and
not during church houre he supposed 10
o’clock had been fixed as the time for
closing. He was not in favor of extend
ing the time as provided by the new ordi
nance, but if any change was made at all
he was in favor of closing up altogether
on Sunday.
The vote upon the ordinance stood 6
and 0, Aldermen Hanley, O'Connor,
Wilder, Green, Minis, and Derst voting
for and Aldermen Hamilton, Thomas,
Mell. Hamlet, Wells, and Nichols against
its passage. The Mayor, in easting the
deciding vote, declared against the ordi
nance and it was lost.
Alderman Wilder introduced an ordi
nance prohibiting the disinterment or re
moval of the remains of any person
buried in any of the cemeteries
of the city or the passage of any
body thus disinterred through
the city without the permit of the Health
Officer’ under a penalty of not less than
SSO or more than SIOO tine imposed upon
any cemetery keeper allowing such disin
terment, or not less than $25 or more than
SIOO upon any person attempting the
violation ot the ordinance. A communi
cation from the Health Officer, urging
the necessity of the provison, was read,
and after some amendment the ordinance,
by unanimous consent, was put upon its
passage and unanimously passed.
ACCIDENTAL SHORTAGE IN THE CITY
TREASURY.
A petition from Major C. S. Hardee,
Citv Treasurer, asking that S2OO 55 short
age’ in his account, which he had made
good to the city, be refunded to him, was
referred to the Committee on Finance.
The petition stated that on the 7th of
January a shortage of $l6O 55 was dis
covered". which the City Treasurer made
good. On the 10th of March another de
ficit of SIOO was discovered, which was
also made good. The dates on which the
deficiencies were discovered were rush
davs in the City Treasurer’s office, when
large amounts of money were being paid
in and the office was continually crowded
with people. In accounting for the short
age in the first instance the petitioner
advanced the supposition that in the
pressure of business some person either
accidentally or intentionally carried away
from the desk on which the money was
paid receipts to the amount of the deficit
without paying into the Treasurer the
money which the receipts made
him responsible for. In the
second case when the pressure, of busi
ness was equally as great as on the first
dav, the Treasurer believes that he de
posited in the bank SIOO more than he re
ceived credit for. In view of these cir
cumstances and the great responsibility
attached to the Treasurer's office with
but small remuneration, the city was
petitioned to refund the amount made
good.

Cotton Press Company asking that water
mains be laid to their property was re
ferred to the Committee on Water Works.

The report was adopted and the commit
tee was Instructed to order the work per

versely to the reduction of specific tax on

ported in favor of laying mains through

Answers for tlie Anxious.
When 1 was on Whitaker street it was
a settled fact that my stock of clothing
was not equaled or surpassed in the city
for material, fit or finish. A good many
people seemed to think that since I moved
into larger quarters, 159 Broughton street,
that 1 have not kept up to my former
standard. This is a big mistake. I never
in my File had as superb a stock of Gents',
Youths’ aud Children’s Clothing as I have
for this season's spring and summer trade.
A visit is all that is necessary to prove
this. Prices are very moderate, and I
guarantee a perfect tailor-tit. Please bear
in mind that you run no risk of havinq a
suit bought of me duplicated —that is, every
second man you meet won’t have one just
like it—thus making the goods appear
common. My stock of latest style of Spring
and Summer Hats, straw and otherwise,
is large. Also, Underwear, Neckwear,
Shirts, Hose, etc. Sign of the Golden
Arm, 159 Broughton street.

The Harnett House, Savannah*
The wonder of those who go to the Har
nett House, in Savannah, is that so excel
lent a table and such comfortable rooms
can be offered to the public at such mini
mum rates. Without exaggeration, the
table of the Harnett is as good as that of
the Screven House, and the rates just one
half as large. Courteous treatment makes
up the sum of its attractions. The public
largely testified their appreciation.—

Advice to Mother*.
Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup
should always be used when children are
cutting teeth. It relieves the little suf
ferer at once; it produces natural, quiet
sleep by relieving the child from pain, and
the little cherub awakes as “bright as a
button.” It is very pleasant to taste. It
soothes the child, softens the gums, allays
all pain, relieves wind, regulates the
bowels, and is tbe best known remedy tor
diarrhoea, whether arising from teething
or other causes. 25 cents a bottle.— Adv.

The astronomers one night discovered ou high
A wonderful presence looking out of the sky.
Neither comet nor planet it surely could be,
Nothing just like it did ever they’sec.
They marveled and puzzled aud' made great
“to do,”
Each swore his own theory was certainly true,
And that all the others were as positively
wrong:
And thus did they wrangle till a stranger
came along.
He locked at thescientistsami then at the sky.
Then laughed in his sleeve aud winked his left
eve.
Quoth he: “You’re all dunces and wide of the
mark.
And claiming enlightenment, grope in tiie
dark.
Y'on bright apparition is not meteor nor
comet,
Nor aught mysterious, you can bet your fame
on it.
Plain to be seen ’tis a Lemon—nothing less
nor more.
It hovers directly over T. P. Bond’s store.
Its significance the veriest lout ought to know,
That oeneath it is the Only Lemon Depot,
Where Lemons, Fancy and Choice, can al
