8 YOUNG MEN WHO SUCCEED aO-AT-IT-NESS AND STICK-TO-IT IVENESS SURE TO WIN. Rev. J. W. Rogan’s Talks to Young Men on How to Attain Suceese—The Dif ference Between Success and Failure —The Key to Prosperity-The Great Apostle’s Motto, “This One Thing I Do"- Men Who Succeed and Fail. P.ev. J. W. Rogan delivered the third of his series of talks to young men at the First Presbyterian church last night. His sub ject was, ‘’Success, and How to Attain It. ' His text was from 11. Chronicles, xxxi.. ‘£l: ‘‘Anil every work that he liegan he did it with all his heart, and prospered.” Mr. Rogan began by saying that there is a universal desire in the hearts of all men to succeed, but only a few attain the highest success, and very few know what roul suc cess is. All is not gold that glitters, so ail is not success that is labeled by that name. The French have an aphorism that “Nothing succeeds like success.” That is true in one sense, but on the other hand it is often true that nothing fails like suc cess. and nothing succeeds like failure. As an illustration: If. after Alexander had sub dued all Greece, and been elected General issimo of its armies, he had met a defeat, his life’s sun might not have gone down amid the clouds of darkness that attended its setting. SUCCESS A XI) FAILURE. If a man is engaged in a business that, is dishonoring God and is hurtful to his hu manity and injurious to his manhood, though the world may wi-ite after his name in gilded letters the iword "Success," God will write after it in characters of the black est dye the word “Failure,” and all the angels and all the good of earth will cry, • “Amen." Mr. Rogan said that he has no newly dis covered short read to success. He only wanted to impress upon thovoung men.what they must do to succeed. The words in the text “with all his heart” arc the key to pros perity and the rule by which almost any on" may reap success. Young men should de termine early what, they want to do. Too many let their barks drift toward any ]>ort, without giving them direction. In other words, they do not moke a choice of a voca tion, while"others, though they see a mark toward which they aim, do not feel certain that it is just the one they want to hit. They are like the Irishman who saw something moving in the bushes, but did not know whether it was a deer or a calf, so he shot to hit, it if it was a deer and miss it if it was a calf. So there are many in life who see a business and want to fol it if it is what they imagine it to lie. AIM AT OXK THIXO. Wbe great apostle of the Gentile*, in writ of what he was doing, wrote five little which all young men would do well as a motto: "This one thing 1 do.” only have one aim. but prosecute it earnestness nnd energy. Some have one aim. but they follow it coldly ar.d Abraham Lincnln gave a pledge 3B;.the world that he would reach highest, step of the ladder Htn he walked freui Salem to Spritigfleld. ot twenty two mi'es, and back dav. carrying frnir large quarto-vol- Sli of BtacksVuie. and reading Ibo |,ages on |H way.

S. WOOLHOPTER DEAD. Found Upon a Sofa in the Dining-Room of His Residence. Mr. Frederick W. B. Woolhopter was found dead in the dining-room of his residence on Bolton street yesterday morning. He complained several days ago of feeling unwell, but seemed to have recovered, and Saturday night was in excellent spirits. He sat up until quite late reading and conversing with his mother. About 2 o’clock yesterday morning, after having retired, he went to her room and said that he felt very nervous and unwell, but thought that he would feel !**tter soon, and returned to his own aparinient. He after wards partly dressed himself and went down stairs to the dining room and lay down on a sofa, having fist thrown bark the folding doore opening into the parlors to allow the breeze to blow through the rooms. When his mother entered the dining room about 8 o'clock he was lying on the sofa dead. Rev. and Mrs. A. M. Wynn, who live in the adjoining house, were called in and with the assistance of other friends who arrived shortly afterwards endeavored to administer some simple restoratives, but life was extinct and had been for at least an hour. Drs. Schley, Myers and Coldiug arrived soon afterward, hut they of course could do nothing. Death, in the opinion of the phyßieians, resulted from heart disease or congestion of the brain. An official inquiry was deemed unnecessary. Death came upon him suddenly, and the struggle must have been very brief. There were no marks of anguish on his face, which was calm and placid, Mr. Woolhopter's father died in almost the same manner as his son at the office of Dr. King in 1872. Mr. Woolhopter has been long and favorably known in the business circles of Savannah. For many years he was book keeper and cashier for Alexander & Russell and their successor, Alexander & Maxwell, and W. E. Alexander & Hon. He remained with the latter firm until Mr. Alexander's retirement from business. He was a brother-in-law of Mr. Marion Erwin, Clerk of the United States District Court, and of Asbury Potter, of Augusta. He was unmarried, and leaves also an un married sister. He had devoted his life to his mother and sisters, whom be seemed to cherish with more than the love of a son and brother. His funeral will take place from the family residence at 10 o'clock this morning. CAUGHT BY THE UNDERTOW. Young Herman Ludemann Drowned While Learning to Swim. Herman Ludemann, a young German clerk at D. Ente-lman's grocery, at West Broad and Bay streets, was drowned near Kinsey’s null, opposite the city, yesterday afternoon. About noon Ludemann started across the river in a bateau with an old col ored man. He took with him Mr. Entel man’s dogs’. After landing on the island the boat was tied to the mill wharf and the old negro went out iu the fields. Young Ludemann remained in the boat and finally undressed and crawled over the side of the boat into tlje water. He could not swim, but clung to the boat's stern and played with the dogs, who swam around him. After trying awhile he thought he could swim to the wharf and let go the boat and struck out. The current coming around the point is very strong and the undercurrent carried him under. The old colored man waited awhile, but not hearing anything from Ludemann, he finally wont to the boat. The young man’s clothes lay in the bottom where he had un dressed. but Ludemann could not be found. He at once surmised that the young man had been drowned and came across the river and notified Mr. Entelman. A search was begun and several parties began diving for the body. Late in the afternoon Mr. John Hearn brought it to the surface a short distance from where the boat wu-s tied. Justice M. F. Molina was notified of the drowning and the recovery of the body. He at once directed the parties to Coroner Dixon, who, after hearing the facts, deemed an inquest unnecessary, there being no doubt that the young man's drowning was accidental. The body was removed to the residence of Mr. John Kuck. at Taylor and East Broad st reets, and the funeral will take place from there at 3 o'clock this afternoon. I.udemann's only relative in Savannah was his brother," Frederick Ludemann. He came here a little more than two vears ago, and had been employed by Mr. Entel man about, a month. He was about 18 years old, and was a sober, industrious young man. THE FORDS’ SUMMER SEASON. Their Initial Performance on Thursday Night.

Cs4l|PSlilW^Pßy COFFEE ON A BIG BOOM. Less Profit for Boarding-House Keepers-Savannah's Coffee Trade. The recent rapid and heavy advances in the price of coffee are attracting widespread attention, and it is evident, as stated in the Morni.no News yesterday, that the bean is in the hands of speculators. In controlling markets there has been considerable activity during several weeks past. It has had a verv depressing effect on the loos! market, and dealers say that buyers are taking very sparingly. In years gone l>v Savannah handled more coffee than any (icrt south of Baltimore except New Orleans, but there has been a big falling off in receipts, due to the fact that importers here have stopped importing, owing to the rigid quarantine imposed on vessels from P.io Janiero. There has not been a single cargo imported during the past year. The receijits for the year up to April 1 were only 23,(59 bags, against 50.834 bags in 1885, showing a decrease of more than one-half from the amount imported two years ago. The re ceipts since April 1 are 2,784 bags. Tlic rise in coffee began really about nine months ago, since which time it has ad vanced steadily. In the past tew weeks the advance in values has been enormous. Last September a bag of prime coffee was worth 813. To-day it could not be duplicated short of 830 in this market. The lugh price of the bean is not without its effect and the average boarding house keeper looks at this necessaiy article tor the breakfast table as worth its "weight in gold, at least some boarders are complaining and say that the strength of their favorite beverage is now on a par with Sunday school ana circus lemonade. The average housewife is greatly distressed when sue finds that she is compelled to pay twice the amount jier t&und that she paid a year ago. On Saturday the New York market was still tending up. though it had a quieter tone. The fact that a year ago 89,000 would buy 1,000 bags of coffee, and that the same quantity will now cost $98,000, tells the story as to the extent of the advance The coffee trade of Savannah last year represented over ?7(K3,000 —very nearly three-quarters of a million. The consump tion in the city is very large, as it is in all Southern cities, and the advance means a good deal to the coffee drinkers. The prin ciple theory as to the cause of the advance is speculation. Another theory is a short crop because of failure in the producing countries. MERCURY CLIMBING UP. The Hot Weather Putting in an Un usually Early Appearance. June was ushered in by weather that gives promise of a warmer summer than has been experienced here for several years. The mercury has not risen inordinately high, but the hot days have begun earlier than usual, and so far the temperature for the month has been above normal. On Friday the mean temperature for the day was 81’ and on Saturday it was 80.3 , while the normal for June 3 for fifteen years past is only 78.3% and for June 4 78°. In Jun# of last year there were eleven days hotter than Saturday, but the-first of these days was not until June 9. The hottest day of June last year was the 17th, when the maximum was 93 . Saturday it was 92" and Friday 92.7”. Already the maximum has topped 90’ twice this month, while it was above that mark only five days during the whole of the month of 1888, but did not reach it until June 16. The maximum of Friday was higher than that of the whole of June, 1872, though it was below the records of all other years since the signal station was established here. Below is given the highest temperature of the month of June since 1871. 1871,94’; 1872, 92”; 1873, 95*; 1874, 98’; 1875, 97”; 1878,99”; 1877,99’; 1878, 93’; 1879, 96; 1889,100”; 1881,99”; 1883, 96”; 1883, 97”; 1884, 91 : 1885. 05”; 1880. 93’. These high temperatures, however, were reached during tho latter part of the month in almost every instance. Unless there is a change in the state of the weather they will be scored early this year, and June 1887 may be the hottest on record. SATURDAY HALF HOLIDAYS. The Movement Among Wholesale Merchants on the Bay. The Saturday half holiday movement is being pushed among the wholesale mer chants of the city, and with an assurance of success. A petition lias been circulated on the Bay and has been signed by nearly all of the leading wholesale firms, who agree to close at 2 o’clock on Saturdays during June and July. There is very little shipping done on Saturdays after 2 o’clock, and shippers will 'not be at all incon venienced by the adoption of the system. It is the custom in Charleston and other large cities South and North to close at that hour, anil from the indorsement which the movement is receiving here there is very little doubt that it will lie generally adopted. The system will be started on the Bay on Saturday. In the meantime a [ictition will be circulated on Congress street, and an effort will be made to briug the entire wholesale trade into the movement bo that there will lie a general closing up on Satur day afternoons. Those merchants who have already signed the petition commend the plan. A large number of clerks and employes, who are now required to remain on duty the entire day, will have the afternoon to' themselves for needed recreation Tlie movement was first started with a view to extending the time of early closing until Sept. 1, but it was afterwards changed to Aug. 1, as the slapping for fall trade begins to aomo extent in that month. A Light Peach Crop. The peach crop is considerably earlier this year tlian usual and the market is sup plied with the fruit. Advices from the peach growing counties, however, indicate a short crop. Mr. L. Putzel’s correspon dents some of them say t'wt it will not, be much over half the average vield. From the present indication* the bulk of the crop w ill be shipped in the next three weeks.

The little difficulty which occurred at Augusta among the diiwtoi-s of the proposed toad to Chattanooga has, according to the v - Chronicle , been adjusted. It says: “The directory of the Augusta and Chattanooga railroad is now united and is working solid ly and harmoniously in the interest of the line. The contract for building and equip ping the road from Augusta to Chattanooga has been made and approved, and the work of construction will be rapidly pushed. This will be good news to those along the line, who look upon the road as ati assurance of j>rogress and prosperity, and it is but a mat ter of a short while now before Augusta and Chattanooga will be linked with bands of steel.” A New Railroad Deal. Some time during the past year the bond holders of the Asheville and Spartanburg railroad formed themselves into a syndicate for mutual protection. About 3500,000 in bonds were issued iu i 883 for the completion of the road to Asheville, since which time the bondholders have received no interest on their investments. Recently overtures were made to the syndicate looking to the purchase of the bonds, and it is said that during the past week the whole amount of tho bonds have been sold, with the exception of a few thousand, the owners of which were unwilling to accept the terns offered to the syndicate. The amount of bonds held in Charleston bv banks and individuals, the Neva and Courier says, is about *200.000, and the price obtained is said to have been 45c. on the dollar. The bonds were sold to the agent of a Northern syndicate, but are be lieved to have been purchased for the Rich mond and Danville Terminal Company. Charleston Happenings.

Nashville played its first game here to-day and captured the crowd by its fine playing and gentlemanly behavior. New O-tleans also played a rat tling game outside of the ragged and listless work of B'.-ennan and Geiss, who could have saved the game had tkev tried hard. What won for Nashville was Maul's terrific hitting, he making two home runs, one of which brought in Hogan. The game was close, exciting and brilliant all the way through. The fielding of Powell. Firle, Burks. Puller and Bradley, and Hogan’s t>a-:r running were the features. Skinner's umpiring was poor, but hit both sides alike.

Last week's games ad vanced the club to third place and only 2-1 (JO of a point below Memphis, which holds second place. The first four clubs are now so closely bunched and the teams so evenly matched that from this time on it is any body’s race. Memphis has the advantage this week of playing Birmingham, which is yet in it its infancy, and will no doubt take the lead. The following is a complete record of games played up to date: Percent- Won. Lost. Playeti. age.

Charleston will "lay off” until June 16, when the club will open its second series abroad at Memphis. Around the Bases. President Morrow has called a meeting of the Southern League at Birmingham to-day to rearrange the schedule.

The Strongest Man on Earth. Prom the Virginia Spectator. There is a man on the Dar*on river, be low Dayton, named Angela Cordelia, who claims to be the strongest man in the world. He is an Italian, aged 28. and stands 5 feet 10 inches, weighing 108 pounds. His strength was born with him, for he had no athletic training. He differs from other men chiefly in the osseous structure. Although not of unusual size, his spinal column is much beyond the ordinary width, and his ’now's and joints are made on a similarly large and generous scale. He has lifted a man of 300 pounds with the middle finger of his right hand. The man stood with one foot on the floor, his arms outstretched, his hands grasp'd by two persons, to balance his bony. Cordelia then stooped, placed the third finger of his right hand under the man's foot, and, with scarcely any pefep tible effort, raised him to the’ height of 4 feet and deposited him on a table near at hand. Once two powerful men waylaid Cordelia, with intent to thrash him. but he seized one in each hand and hammered them together until life was nearly knocked out of them. Age Improves All Things. Prom the Fort Gaines Star. George Anderson, a stately and dignified Othello, over whose classic brow the snows of sixteen dreary winter have wasted their fury, and Hattie Carter, a coy and blushing maiden who has seen tl loveiy flowers blos som into fragrant beauty for forty-five gor geous spring times, were united in the brit tle ties of wedded infelicity last week, in the front yard of Mr. Louis Crozier. This was truly a union- of love on the part of the chocolate-hued damsel, for George wooed her untrammeled by any other in ducement to win her young, confiding heart than those suggested by a well develop'd physique, rendered tensely muscular by oft repeated pulls on the bell line guiding some refractory mule across a cotton patch. The love-smitten lassie came to her future liege lord, attended only by her good looks, and a small dowry,'consisting of fifteen children, possibly may have influenced, to some extent, the adoration of the chival rous George. For Rickets, Marasmus, and Wasting Disorders of Children, Scott's Emulsion of Pure Cod Liver Oil with Hj pophosphites is unequaled. The rapidity with which children gain flesh a: id strength upon it is very wonderful Read the follow ing: "I have used Scott's Emulsion iu cases of rickets and marasmus of long standing, and have ieen more than pleased with the results, as in every case the improvement was marked."—J.
