Mail. Janauschek, in her new play,
“My Life,” will be the opening attraction
of the week at the Theatre. Twelve years
ago this week .lanauschek made her last
appearance in Savannah, and was enthu
siastically received as one of the most fa
mous actresses of the day. The Au
gusta papers say that the company is
composed of the prettiest lad its and is
the best company that has visited that
city for several seasons.
The demand being so universal on the
part of the public to visit and inspect
Mad. Janauscfcek’s private car, the man
agement is compelled to limit the number
or permits, and, to insure the same being
placed in proper hands, application must
be made direct to Manager Johnson. No
person will be admitted without a per
mit. The car will be open to receive vis
itors to-morrow from 11 to 1 o'clock at
the Charleston and Savannah depot.
Accident on the Steamer Katie.
An accident occurred on board the
steamer Katie while stopping at a land
ing on the Savannah river about noon
yesterday, which may result seriously.
It appears that while Engineer Hall and
his assistant, Meyer, were engaged mak
ing some temporary repairs to one of the
wheels of the steamer, young
Mever being inside the wheel and Mr.
Hall almost next him, someone started
the engine, which, of course, caused the
[wheel to revolve, and Meyer, being un-
Uhle to extricate himself, sustained some
tevere injuries in the tack and spine
(which may result fatally. Engineer Ilall
|aas bruised slightly in the side and back.
Lit his injuries are not considered to be
■ a serious nature. W hen the 6teamer
Arrived at her wharf in the city last night
Layer was sent to Dr. George H. Stone's
Iffioe, when he received medical atten-
Kon, and thence was sent to the St.
Joseph's Infirmary.
THE TRAMPS KEEP BUSY.
STILL RAIDING AND PLUNDER
ING IN THE SUBURBS.
A Falling Off In Number* but No Dis
count on Boldness —ll riven from Their
Camping Ground They Take Refuge
iu the Wood* and Skulk Into the City
at Nightfall— Suburban Resident* Con
tinually on the Guard Against Raid*
aud Robbery.
The tramp nuisance has not been alto
gether abated in the outskirts of the city,
but recently there has been a perceptible
falling off in the number of vagabonds,
who have made the life of suburban resi
dents a terror. They are still numerous
enough, however, to Keep householders
on their guard, and robberies continue to
be reported almost every day. Persons
passing over the City and Suburban Rail
way outside line report that almost every
trrp able-bodied tramps are seen skulking
through the woods and bshind lences, and
on sunny days basking in the sunshine
and sleeping their time away with an
utter indifference to its value, and in fact
to the value of anything except wbat they j
are aide, br thieving and robbery, to con
vert to their own use. Ffc* Be\eml weeks
tbev have not been seen in large droves,
as heretofore, confining tneir colonies to
the woods in the day time, and going on
the skirmish singly instead of in
gangs. Suburban residents a--ecorivinc?d
nowever, that the lull is only temporary,
and are holding themselves in readiness
for the next raid. The principal camps
near the city have been broken up. and
the vagabonds have been driven from the
city into the country where, they are com
paratively safe from arrest.
•‘Tramps and goats are our greatest
enemies out here,” said an Anderson
street citizen to a News reporter yester
day. “I am generally favored with a
visit from a tramp every day, and it
makes no difference how well I fasten my
gate some wandering goat generally
manages to but it open and devour my
flowers and vines as fast as they get above
the ground, hauling out some of them by
the roots. The tramps who come around
now are generally lean and hungry look
ing specimens, and the fat, sleek
looking villains are not so numer
ous as thev were wnen the News
first began calling attention to their out
rages. You see we have determined to
starve them out, and the tramp who suc
ceeds in begging a meal now must make
out a good ise: rnd the one who suc
ceeds in stealing even a cold lunch has
to be both active aud vigilant if he
escapes a load of shot or cold lead in a
lump; but we can’t be on guard all the
time, and they occasionally get in their
work on oui' kitchens and hen roosts in
spite of everything.”
It is the general impression that as
soon as the nomadic villains turn their
face towards the North again, while the
tide is rolling past, Savannah and the
vicinity will again be overrun. “Most ot
them have drifted South.” said one
suburban resident, “but they will be
back again <>n their way North as numer-

oils as ever.”
A reckless negro fiend made a hold raid
or. the house of James Scott, at Browns
ville. Saturday night. He was seen skulk
ing in the neighborhood during the day,
and appeared to be watching the house
for some purpose. About T o'clock all
the crown members of the family were
absent, several stuail children being the
only inmates. The villain considered his
opportunity to rob the house had arriv
ed. The door t>eing locked he un
dertook to break in the window
sash, and had partly succeeded,
when a neighbor who had been requested
to watch the place saw him, and, climb
ing over the hack fence, gave the alarm.
Several persons seized firearms and
rushed to the house, and would doubtless
have converted the live villain into a deau
one had he not iieen too quick for them.
Jumping over the fence, he made his
escape in the darkness before any of his
pursuers could get a shot at him.
Prince Wood, an industrious colored
man, employed in the city and living in
Rfownsviile, got a severe scare in the
Park late Friday night, that made
his eyes bulge and caused him
pi do some of the tallest running
on record. As he was passing through
the park he was accosted by a man who
:( ked him the way to Whitaker street.
Woods stopped to point outthe way, when
he suddenly discovered villainous looking
meu of the tramp species emerging out of
the shadows of the trees from every point of
ti.- cm pass, evidently intent on robbery.
He didn’t stand on the order of his going
•ut went for all his legs would carry him.
He says he made more tracks to the min
uie than at any other period in his life
until he got into’the open streets. His as
sailants pursued him only a short dis
tance and then disappeared m the shall
ows as mysteriously as they had appeared.
On Saturday night three negro thieves
broke into the yard ot George Jackson’s
house, south of Anderson street, and got
away with a brace ot chickens. Jackson
at once discovered bis loss, and two of
the tuieves, Parish Jones and William
Riley, were arrested and lodged in the
barracks bv Officer Anglin. The third, a
negro named Richard Polling, was arrest
ed yesterday morning. The trio will be
given a hearing in the Police C ourt to-day.
O'UEi: THE WHEELS.
A Switchman Ran Over and Frightfully
Mangled on the Lower Wharves.
A frightful accident, resulting in the
death of Robert Williams, a colored
switchman in the Savannah, Florida and
Western Railway yards, occurred on the
wharves below the city yesterday fore
noon. A freight train attached to a
pusher was being backed upon the new
turn-out at the wharf when Williams,
who was standing by the track alter the
train had gone two car lengths, waved
the engineer fW. R. Hutchinson) to slow
down. The signal was obeyed, and the
train came almost to a stop. Thinking
that it was moving sufficiently slow
Williams went in between the cars to cut
the train, and leave some of the cars on
the turn out and others on the main line.
While in the aet of uncoupling the cars
his foot was caught under the switch-bar
and being unable to extricate himself
quickly he was knocked down by the
moving train and the wheels of the for
ward truck passed over him, crushing the
bones of the thigh immediately bslow the
waist. He was seen by the engineer and
others as he fell under the wheels, but it
was impossible to avert the accident, as
steam was shut oil and the train was
moving onlv by the momentum it had re
ceived before Williams signaled the en
gineer. The unlortunate man was able
to drag himself to the outside of the
track, when the engineer and Fireman
Royall ran to his assistance, and, placing
him on a car, brought him up to the depot
yard, whencp he was moved to his home
on Hall street, where he died in about
fifteen minutes and before surgical aid
could be summoned In his behalf. Coro
ner Dixon was notified, and prompt
iv impaneled a jury, when
the facts as above reported were
substantially verified by the testimony of
witnesses. The jury, in its, verdict,
attributed Williams’ death to “his being
run over by cars at the wharf of the
Savannah, Florida and Western Railway,
while in the discharge of his duty as
switchman, he being tripped up by a
cross-bar on the switch while uncoupling
cars.”
Williams had been In tbe service of the
railway about two years, and was regard
ed as a faithful employe. He left a wile
atid six children.
INAUGURATION DAY.
An Inauguration Concert at Noon and
an Illumination at Night.
One of the events of Inauguration day
in Savannah will be the grand Inaugura-
tion Concert m Johnson square at noon
by the Ludden & B ites Silver Tone Band.
The City Council has given the band
permission so play at the base ot the
Greene Monument and within the en
closure. The monument will be hand
somely draped with flags and bunting in
honor of the day.
The concert will last one hour, and will
consist of the national airs and selections
appropriate to the occasion. The full pro
gramme will be published to-morrow and
will also be printed and distributed among
those In attendance.
The concert has been arranged by Mr.
J. A. Bates, of Ludden & Bates Music
House. The inauguration ceremonies will
be in progress at Washington during the
concert, and an opportunity will be
afforded for the people to join in doing
honor to the new President.
A large number of leading firms have
already announced that they will decorate
their places of business, and an effort is
being made to secure a general illumina
tion at night. The suggestion in the
News yesterday, that the day be fittingly
observed, has met with eeneral approval,
and the display that will be made, while
it will crobabiv not be as extensive as
that of last November, will represent the
sentiment of the people.
The Cadets' Drill In morrow Night.
The exhibition drill of the Savannah
Cadets and also their annual prize drill,
which was postponed from last week on
account of the rain, will take place at
the Oglethorpe barracks to-morrow night.
The postponement was a matter of regret
to all, but the drill will take place to
morrow nitiht under even more favorable
auspices than last week. The Ludden tv
Bates Silver/Tone Band will be present,
and arrangements have been made for the
accommodation ol all who have pur
chased tickets. The tickets purchased
last week will be good.
OBLIVIOUS OF HIS DOOM.
How the Negro Whitfield. Under Sen
tence to be Hung thia Month. Pae*e*
Hi* Time.
The negro Henry Whitfield, alias Whit
field Ryals. who was convicted during
the last term of the Superior Court of ar
son—setting fire to a dwelling in the
city—and was sentenced to be hung on
March 27, is one of the quietest, and with
the exception of the confirmed and noisy
lunatics. Is also the silliest prisoner in the
he was first arrested the jail
guards have watched him closely. Before
his trial his actions were strange to them,
but siuee his conviction his attendants
while not observing any change in his
manner, have become deeply im
pressed with the idea that he is
not wholly sound in mind. The
gravity of his situation, with the certainty
of his impending doom staring him in the
face, does not affect h'm, for the reason ap
parently that he is unable to realize *.t,
llis manner is not that of the savuge
or bravado who defies death. He is
tractable, exhibiting at times the docility
of an idiot. A gentleman called at the
jail yesterday who has known Whitfield
for some time and worked alongside of
him. He said taat as long as he had
known him he had looked upon him as a
light-headed and anything but vicious
man.
Whitfield’s counsel a day or two aao
received a letter trom Augusta, stating
that the prisoner’s mother and some of
his brothers and sisters were of uu
sound inind. In view of his
mental condition, a petition re
questing that his sentence be commuted
to imprisonment for life has already re
ceived over two hundred signatures.
Meantime his counsel is taking steps to
have the case reviewed.
ST. JOHN COMING.
Rantin' Kx-Governor to Vl*it Savan
nah About March 18.
It has been definitely settled that Gov.
St. John will visit Savannah and lecture
about March 18. The possibility of se
curing a lecture by the distinguished ad
vocate has been quietly discussed among
temperance people for several days. A
telegram was received last night by Mr.
N. F. Thompson trom the Governor, who
is now in Jacksonville, accepting the in
vitation to some to Savannah, and saying
he would reach here about March 18or20.
He will leave Jacksonville to-day for
Lake de Funiak, the Southern Chautau
qua, and from there will go on to New
•Orleans, returning to Savannah after
visiting the exposition. His lecture here
will be on the subject of prohibition, and
will be delivered under the auspices of
a committee from the various temperance
societies. This committee has not yet been
selected, but will be at once, aud will
meet at the earliest possible date to ar
range for the lecture and the Governor’s
reception. It is the desire of those who
have interested themselves in the matter
to have the lecture if a sufficient amount
can be obtained by subscription to defray
the expenses.

CAPTURING A STEAMETt.
How Copt. Serames Stopped Her En
gines by a Lncky Siv,t.
The history of the Confederate cruiser
Georgia, published in th e New York
Graphic, recalls to the inj 0 d of the “Cas
ual Observer” of that P aper an incident
in the cruise ot the Alabama that may
not lie uninteresting a t this time. The
Alabama was at o’ ue time laid up with a
broken screw among the West India
Islands. TUb’-e was a line of fine side
wheel steamers running from Panama up
the coask somewhere probably to
CbarlestQr, or Philadelphia—and Capt.
Bemuiea concluded to capture one of
them, one fine morning in spring the
steair.er was sighted, bowling along, with
only a light breeze fanning the sea.
W'uen she got near the Alabama,
yvith the English or some other foreign
flag flyiug, crossed her bows to have a
look at her. She had on board several
companies of Federal soldiers, whose
bayonets could be seen glistening in the
sun. The band was playing on the for
ward deck, and the ladies and officers
were dancing. When the Alabama had
crossed her bows she put about, hauled
down the foreign flag and ran up in its
stead the stars and bars. Instantly the
hand stopped on the steamer, the people
rushed into the cabins and the pilot could
be heard to ring for full speed in the engine
room. The Alabama tired a shot across
ner bows as a command to stop, but the
steamer seeing she had nothing but her
sails todependon. paid no attention to this
salute, and the wheels revolved as never
before, throwing up immense mountains ot
white water and rapidlv pushing her
away from the audacious little privateer.
This rather surprised Capt. Semmes, who
thought she would surely stop. The
steamer was half a mile away, and he
thought he would take a parting shot at
her “for luck.” An old gunner took care
ful aim with the long rifled cannon at the
bow, fired, and instantly the steamer
slopped. The ball had hit the walking
beam. The Alabama sailed leisurely up,
towed her into Galveston harbor, and ran
somed her tor SBOO,OOO, to be paid as usual
to the Confederate Government “six
months alter it had been recognized by
the United States,” and. ot course, it was
never paid.
DESPERATE MOONSHINERS.
They -Mutilate the Animals of Deputy
Marshals, and Attempt to Frecipitate
a Bloody Combat.
The lot of a United States Deputy
Marshal is anything but a happy one,
says the Chattanooga Times , and the men
with whom they come in contact, render
their dutiss anything but pleasant. About
ten days ago United States Deputy Mar
shals Racer and Bennett went to Se
quatchie county to arrest several moon
shiners. To reach the place where the
men were located, the officers tethered
their horses and walked a few miles.
While they were absent a party of the
moonshiners took their animals a short
distance from the road and shaved
their manes and tails clean. The of
ficers failed to catch the violators and went
back again last Monday. Tne moon
shiners secreted themselves near the road
on Walden’s Kidge, and when the officers
approached emerged from their place of
concealment. There were nine in their
party, and each one was a walking ar
senal, being armed with shotguns, pistols
and rifles. A terrible combat seemed im
minent, and was only avoided by the
coolness of the officers. They rode boldly
past the desperadoes until they secured
the shelter of some trees. The moonshin
ers began to prepare for fight, but when
they saw the officers arranging to meet
them, took fright and dispersed. Bill
Brumbly, one of the most noted moon
shiners in the section, was at the head of
the gang.
Failing Eyesight
is generally attributed to something wrong
about the eyes. But before you pay heavy
fees to an oculist, just see if your system
is not debilitated. Very often that tells
on the eyes aud makes you think your
sight is failing. You need Brown’s Iron
Bitters, which in toning up the whole
system, will help the enfeebled eyes. Mr.
A. B. Sherwood, Bethel, Conn., says: “I
used Brown’s Iron Bitters with best re
sults, for indigestion and weakness that
affected my head and spine.”

Yes, I am goiug to New York in a few
days to secure my spring stock of Fash

in earnest in any announcement in my
life, and when l state that no reasonable
offer will be refused , 1 am ready to abide
bv it. This is no ordinary opportunity,
as all familiar with the quality ol my
goods well know. They are put together
to stay, of the best material and approved
cut, not surpassed by anything any tailor
can or will turn out. Such is the quality
of these goods that I would run no risk
even save money—by holding them over
until next season, only that 1 have no

sacrifice.
The public know me well enough to be

MU. STERNBERG DESIRES TO ACQUAINT HIS PATRONS AND THE PUBLIC AT
LARGE that he has just returned from New York with an exquisite selection of DI A
MONDS, WATCHES amt JEWELRY of all kinds, far superior to anv ever seen in this city
under one roof. Owing to the extreme dullness of the trade in New York ana all over this
country, he has found the Wholesale trade and Manufacturers of Jewelry extremely anxious
to realize at any price. In most cases, strange as it may appear, they were willing to dis
pose of their wares at almost the actual cost of the Gold, ana, in consequence. I feel gratified
in saving that I have not only the NEWEST STYLES, but the CHEAPEST GOODS IN SA
VANNAH. and, as 1 am w illing to part with them at a small advance on cost, I consider it a
rare opportunity for the purchase of goods ir. my line—an opportunity that will not occur
again very soon. I feel th-.t my reputation is sufficiently established that J need not again
assure the public that my goods are a3 reliable as if they were purchased of a high-priced
