The Associate Members Knter
tuined at the Association Rooms.
The first reception ior the associate
members of the Young Men’s Christian
Association was held last night at tbe as
sociation rooms, and was well attended.
The reception feature was started two
we. ks ago when the’ active members held
one.
Mr. Clayton P. Miller, the association’s
President, directed the musical part of
the entertainment, which was inter
spersed with ebon addresses by himself
and others. Several songs were ren
dered. Mr. Miller spoke of the dis
tinctions between the active and associ
atu members. The former, bo explained,
arc members of some Christian church,
while the latter are moral young men,
but uun-church members fihe associate
members have all the privileges of the
rooms and can join the stenographic, lit
erary or gymnastic class just tue same
as tbe active members. One object of the
receptions is to show mat Cutistiane can
enjoy rational pleasures of lite as 'veil as
worldly people, tho President remarked.
Several converts Irom the associate mem
bership nave been made since the asso
ciation started, ho added.
Mr. J. T. Frater, the Secretary, spoke
ot what had been accomplished in tue
way of providing attractions. Tbe read
ing room, said he, eau boast of a larger
list of papers and magazines than any
other association ill the South, having
about 150 daily, weakly and monthly
periodicals on thu tables. He concluded
by urging the associate members to try
to get others to join and to invite their
irieuds to visit the rooms, which are
always open to visitors.
Mr. James Farie, Jr., gave some
reminiscences of Ins experience with
Young Men’s Christian Associations Ho

Irom a business point of view, and he
told how they had been so with him in
England, Scotland and the Uniied States.
Whenever be goes to n strange place be

Association as soon as possible, and he
observed that he had totimi that be could

Mr. E. W. Maher gave an organ reoital
and Sir. Miller a vocal solo. After tne
musical part of the programme was over
refreshments were served by the ladies’
committee.
CRUSHED ON THE RAIL.
Joe lihatigan, llie Dancer, Laid
Away to liis Final Rest.
The luneral of Joe Rbatigan, who died
in the Charleston City Hospital from in
juries received by being run over on tbe
Charleston atid Savannah railway near
Biackviile, took place from his home, No.
56 East Broad street, yesterday afternoon.
Joe was well knowu among the boys on
the east side ot town. Ho left Savannah
last week ana started tor Charleston.
Tue story of Dow he was hurt was told be
fore thecorouer’Bjury. EngineerWagnon
was in charge ot the locomotive that was
hauling the fatal train. “We had just
left Biackviile at 4:27 o’clock on Tuesday
morning.” be said, -witn a train of
eighteen cars, when 1 saw standing on the
track, about filty yards ahead of us, what
appeared to be a woman. 1 immediately
snut the engine off and whistled brakes.
As I whistled weeame up on the man. 1
put my head out of the cab,
could see nothing, and thought
that he hart cleared the track.
I again whistled brakes and examined
the pilot of the engine, but could find no
signs of torn clothes nor Hash, and then
went to the rear of the train, where, at a
little distance, we found ithatlgan with
both legs over the track, his right foot
barely hanging to the limb and bis
left loot injured. Fie first said that
he wanted to see his old mother,
and begged me not to run over him
again. 1 asked him why he did not
leave the track when he saw* tbe head
light. He said, ‘I thought them fellows
were going to shoot me.’ He then said:
‘You know me very well—l am Joe
Rhatigsn. tbe dancer, ol 06 East Broad
street, Savannah,’ and he agaiu begged
me not to run over him. While we were
talking a man came up and looked ou,
hut soon left. I summoned tho engine ot
train 45 at Biackviile, and Rhatigan was
carelully carried back.”
The night was very dark, and the engi
neer saw nobody with a gun. Tho engine
was almost upon the boy when he saw
h>na, anu it was too late to stop. Joe’s
friends carried him out to the Cathedral
cemetery yesterday, where lie will rest
until his final summoning.
A Charleston dispatch to the Morning
News last uight gave tbe coroner's jury’s
verdiot, which stated that the deceased
came to iiis death through bis own care
lessness.
PEACHES BADLY HURT.
The Freeze Proves More Disastrous
Ilian was First Believed.
The Savannahlans who eat pouches dur
ing tbe coming summer will doubtless
have to pay more for the luxury than they
have been accustomed to pay. The frost
last week was much more disastrous and
damaging than was first supposed, in
many parts of the peaon-growing sections
and in some fruit orchards scarcely a
peach, pear or plum escaped.
Tbe fruit men in this city have received
advices Irom their correspondents and
most of them say that the damage is very
heavy. Commissioner of Agriculture
Henderson has sent out iu
qiMius in regard to the condition
<>t the crop and has received several
replies. Some of these differ as to the
extent of the damage, but all agree that
it has been heavv. Where tbe fruit Is not
whuily killed be set back and the
maturing will be very slow.
The peach crop is variously estimated
from one-eighth to a quarter, and in some
section* or.e half. A Camilla‘dispatch
says t int within tbe past day or two the
prospect has changed there lor the worst.
There will be, it adds, possibly half a
peach crop. The LeConte pear crop is a
big failure. The melon* up are injured
and killed, according to locality.' But
few are up in Mitchell county of the “sec
ond” planting, winch wu* about tenduys
after the frost, and growers are hopeful of
a stand from the two planting*. Corn tnat
is up is sickly, and oats have a rusty ap
pearance. The best authority in dltl rent
localities #eeins to testify thst the injury
is considerable, and that, if not wholly
killed, the Iruit crop will be found to bo
badly damaged.

United States Railroad Construction Com

tailed to put up any money and did pot

GENERAL RAILWAY NEWS.
Matters of Money null Management
About Various Lines.
The citizens of Chesterfield, 8. C., have
called a meeting on the first Monday in
April for the purpose of devising some
plan by whiob to build a railroad trom
Chesterfield to Cberaw.
Commissioner Ogden, of the Consolida
ted i’ooi aed Railway Association, is now
in Atlanta arranging for the removal of
the headquarters of the association irom
Louisville to Atlauta. The change will
be made next week.
The Montgomery Advertiser says that
oneot the projectors of the Birmingham,
Georgia and Florida railroad tells it that
takers have been secured for almost
enough bonds to build tee road from
Momgomeiy to the Georgia line. The
company is not yet organized.
Tbe Hamilton Journal says: Colum
bus has subscribed $47,000 to the Colum
bus Southern, which is hut $3,000 less
than was assigned her. Other points
have raised the subscriptions assigned
them, and Brunswick has volunteered a
subscription ol $lO,OOO. So it looks now
as it the Columbus Southern would be
come a reality at an early day. When
this road ts built, the road from West
i’oint to Columbus will follow as natural
ly as night follows day.
Senator Krowu ou Kreo I'ttDSP*.
Senator Brown, Fresident of the West-
ern and Atlantic railroad, says in regard
to the railroad pass question: “The in
terstate commerce bill does not interlere
with any railroad issuing a pass to any
point within the Stale in which the rail
road is doing business. It does attempt
to interfere with issuing passes from oue
State to another. As to what, will be
done about long distance passes I have
not yet determined, but clearly 1 can
issue passes over the Western and At
lantic railroad us far as tbe State line
without any evasion of the interstate
bill. 1 doubt ii 1 can issue a pass from
Atlanta to Chattanooga without in some
wav getting around the provisions of the
bill.”
The Georgia I’aoitic road, it is under
stood, lias already provided a stamp ou
which free tickets are issued as far as the
state liue Irom Atlanta. From Birming
ham they are issued up to the Georgia
line, it would seem that alt that is
necessary in future is for an editor or a
legislator to get a pass for each State
through which he desires to travel.

The Montlcello Constitution gives a

the result ot its efforts in procuring con
tributions of land and money to defray
the expense of building the roaii-beit to

land and money have been pledged, and
the committee was sanguiue of its ability
to realize the remaining seven or eight
thousand dollars.
Hon. S. G. McLendon, of Thomasville,
representing the Savannah, Florida and
Western railway, was present, and ad
vised the citizens that Onief Engineer
Reynolds would personally view the route
over which the road would pass the pres
ent week, anil immediately thereafter an
engineering corps will be placed in
the field to make a careful survey
and report the exact cost of the road
bed and its location. Mr. McLen
don thought the committee had done well
aud had everything to encourage it in the
great work. It was decided that the
committee should proceed forthwith to
procure titles from'all persons who had
pledged donations of land, and notes
irom those who pay money, to be depos

Savannah, Florida and Western Railway
Company on the completion of the work.

Baltimoreans Urge President Cleve
land to Keappoint Him.
Messrs. Howard B. Ensign, J. Alex.
Shrlver and Henry Williams, represent
ing steamboat interests lu Baltimore,
called upon President Cleveland a few
days ago to urge tbe reappointment of
James Curran as Supervising Inspector
of Steamboats for tbe Third district. Tne
delegation, which was made small at the
suggestion ot the President, was armed
with a petition reciting Air. Curran’s
ample qualifications for the position
and the general satisfaction his
administration gave to those in
terested in the steamboat business
in Baltimore. The President listened to
all they had to say in favor ot Mr. Cur
ran. Tlly said their mission had no po
litical bearing, butthey were simply the
representatives of tbe steamboat inter
ests, desiring to have a worthy and com
petent man testored to duties which he
bad performed to the entire satislactiou
of the steamboat companies doing busi
ness at tbe port ot Baltimore. They
urged the President not to go outside of
Baltimore to select an inspector, us more
than three-fourths of the business in the
Third district is transacted at that port.
The President in reply said that Mr.
Curran’s name bad been twins presented
to the Senate, ami under the circum
stances he did notoare to annoy the Sen
ate too far In this matter. He remarked,
however, that be bad not quite made up
ins mind what action he would lake, and
he promised to give the petition and the
statements of the delegation due consid
eration. The delegation w< re courteously
received, and they were well pleased vvitn
the frank manner in which the Pre-idem
went over the subject with them.
Before going to the Wtiite House tbe

AT LAW ABOUT A CHILD.
Judge 1 errill Called Upon to De
termine the Custody of a Little
Girl.
Christophene Walker, a bright little
7-year-old mulatto girl, was the subject
of a habeas corpus case heard yesterday
by Judge Hampton L. Ferrill in the
Court of Ordinary. The writ was sued
out by Thomas Walker, the father,
against Eugenia Walker, the mother ol
the child. The father claimed that the
child was not being property reared, and
he asked ior the custody ofit.
A divorce suit is pending between the
husband and the wife, and the child has
bten living with a grandmother.
A number ot witnesses and spectators
were present at the hearing. It was
shown that the mother lives in Charleston
and came to Savannah only once a year
to visit her daughter. The father lives
here and saw- his child constantly. He
bears a good reputation ior industry and
honesty and seemed in every way a fit
person to have the child.
Judge Ferrill, in giving his decision,
stated that be would be governed by the
evidence and what he regarded as the
stern law, and ignore all considerations
of sympathy. He awarded the full con.
trol to the father, with the direction that
both the mother and grandmother be
allowed access to the child at auy time
lor all proper purposes.
Upon the delivery of the girl to her
lather the mother became angry, pulled
the ear.rings from the child’s ears and
pushed her toward the father with a
petulant remark, all of which indicated
that the decision was proper and judi
cious.
