NOT SO BIG AS LAST YEAR
"TOE KAVAL STORES CROP OUT
LOOK POR 1989.
"‘ \ '
The Season for Box Cuttinir to Close
'March I—The Probable Crop Esti
mated at SO Per Cent. Lees Than
1887 and 30 Per Cent. Less Than
Last Year's Crop—The Efleet of the
Tonnage Shortage on the Market.
*hat is the outlook for the naval stores
a leading factor on the Bay was
yesterday.
“It is too early to forecast the crop yet,”
he replied, and he wont on to state that
until the season for cutting boxes closed it
would be impossible to state with any de
gree of accuracy. The season for cutting
boxes close, under the law governing
turpentine farmers, March 1. and the
crop estimate can be made up in
a few days thereafter. Tho new
product will not begin to come into market
until the latter part of March. Tho
w4htb.T has teen favorable for farmers
and as there remain but ten days more for
box cutting, the number of boxos yet to bo
cut will largely depend upon tho weather
and the naval stores market w hich at pres
ent is quiet, and no immediate sign of a
material advance.
It is roughly estimated that 10 per cent,
more virgin trees will have been cut this
season than last, and that by comparison
the season’s cut will be about 80 per cent, of
the crop of 1887 and about 70 per cent, of
tho crop of last year.
Faotorsare inclined t 6 be conservative in
their views ns to the future market for
naval stores. Spirits of turpentine have
touched the highest prices known for
years, have maintained them fairly, and
it is hoped by factors that they will con
-tinuo to rule well. The rosin market has
been very low, the high freight* operating
to pile up a surplus in this country, the
surplus is being materially reduced by the
shortages of the stock in foreign ports,
which was caused by theslowucss of foreign
shipments. Exporters met with consider
able difficulty throughout lost fall in ob
taining tonnage at anything like reteouable
rates, and throughout the past season ocean
freights have been higher than at any time
during the last soven years. The great
scarcity of tonnage on this side of the At
lantic operated to retard any active move
ment of rosin to European ports, conse
quently foreign importers were compelled
to draw on stocks until now the stock on
the other side of the water is very near ex
hausted.
From the present outlook there will t>o
more liberal offerings of tonnage soon,
which will cause a freer movement of naval
stores, as with plenty of tonnage offering
freights will of course bo materially
lowered, although at tho present time rates*
remain unaltered. An active outflow <>{
rosin to Europe, owing to the exhausted
stocks and cheaper freight rates, will
naturally enhat ce the value of the coming
crop, and dealers look forward to an ail
Vance in the near future.
THE NEW SAVINGS BANK.
Mr. E. L. Hackett of the Central Rail
road Bank Elected Cashier-
At a special meeting of the directors of
the Title Guarantee and Loan Company
held yesterday afternoon Mr. E. L. Hackett
was unanimously elected cashier of the
savings department. Mr. Hackefc bus been
connected with the Central Railroad Bank
for the past twenty years, and is regard* and
as a reliable and thoroughly efficient officer.
His appointment is cordially indorsed by
the public, and the Title Guarantee Com
pany secures the aid of a very competent
cashier, who brings to the discharge of his
new duties a pure record, courteous man
ners aud valuable experience.
Tho company has taken a
lease of the building at No. 135 V& Congress
street, on Johnson square, and will fit it up

THE 10 O’CLOCK MOVEMENT.
Tbe Woman’s Christian Temperance
Union Petition to the City Council.
It is expected that tho police committee
of council, to which was referred the num
erously signed petition, asking that the bar
rooms he closed up at 10 o’clock at night,
will report at the next meeting. The peti
tiou was prosuuted at the last meeting of
the council, and was the result of a canvass
by the mem hors of the Woman’s Christian
Temperance Union.
Mrs. Webb, president of the union, said
yesterday that the members labored dili
gently to get up tho petition, and they are
interested in the disposition council’ will
make of it. The Union has taken
no steps in the matter since
tbe petition was presented hoping that the
council would aid tho union in its work.
Mrs. Webb said tliat there will probably be
no action taken until after tbe council has
acted.
“We would hate to see it find a grave in
oblivion, she added,” aud our whole time
and energy will be devoted to securing, if
possible, the legislation asked for.”
THE LATE BISHOP M'TYKIRE.
Sis Death to be Announced In tho
Cburchea To-Day.
Rev. J. R. McCleskey, pastor of Trinity
church said last night that there will proba
bly l>e no special service in referenc3 to tho
death of the late Bishop McTyeire of Nash
ville, owing to the shortness of time the
church has to prepare a service. In order
to carry out the service a* it should be car
ried out, a sketch of the life of tho late
bishop would be necessary. It would be
i oeossary to know just what work ho has
done, ofcc. As the church has not. the
sketch of his life or of bis work, nothing
more than tbe announcement of hi* death
can be made from the pulnit of the various
churches to-day. It miy be that at a later
date a memorial service will bo held. Any
way a memorial service will bo hold at the
next South Georgia Conference which will
b# held in Americus.
tTo Recommend a Crematory.
The health and cemetery committee of
council will bring in a report at the meeting
cf council next Wednesday recommending
tie crematory as the sanitary method of
disposing of the city’s garbage.
Boms of tho members of the board of
aldermen are in favor of sending a commit
tee to some of the northern cities where
crematory furnaces are iu practical opera
tion, so that the workings of the different
patents may be observed, and serve os a
guide to council when it ahail como to adopt
a crematory here.

AN EXCHANGE, NOT A TRUBT.
Nine Firms that Cut 317,000.000 Feet
of Lumber Annually.
A member of the Southern Pine Exchange,
whose attention was brought to tho state
ment in a Philadelphia paper that “the
movement has assumed the form of a
trust,” said yesterday that there is nothing
further from the fact.
“You might as well call the Cotton Ex
change or the Board of Trade a ‘trust’ as to
call ihe Southern Pine Exchange a trust,’’
he said. “Asa matter of fact, tho people of
the north expressed their surprise to
me on a recent visit there, that,
some action had not been taken
sooner by the manufacturers of southern
pine, a sjiecies of wood always in demand,
for which there is no ready substitute, and
the price of w hich has ruled lower than it
should have ruled.”
The gentleman went on to state why tho
Southern Pine Exchange has been organized.
The lurnl>er manufacturers were in suicidal
competition with each other, often furnish
ing lumber at cost and sometimes below
Cv>st. He cited tho fact that sometimes it
was a better policy to keep the nulls run
ning, and tho force organized in slack tunes
Htiit*r than close down, let the working
furco scatter, and either be at the expense
,f feeding the live stock in idleness or sell
ing it off uud running the risk of starting
in- with unskilled hands and new stock.
Under tie loose and ruinous policy of
selling lumber at any price to
keej) the mills g ing, manufacturers were
at tho mercy ot buyers ad underbid each
other on orders. Bv the present plan, which
the gentleman B'iid is experimental, this
suicidal policy has been done away with,
and the lumber is sold at a fair price.
The gentleman, who represents one of the
largest firms in tho exchange, said that tho
individuality of all tbe firms in the Pino Ex
change is maintained, and, therefore, as
there L no parent company there can be no
trust. Ho was oven more pronounced. Ho
said that it is neither tbe drone
nor the intention of the Pine Exchange
to place a fictitious value upon
the products of the southern lumber
mill?, and it would be impracticable to un
dertake to do so, and impossible to ca ry
out such a movement. Representing one
of the largest firms in the exchange, ho
would oppose it if proposed.
Stillwell, Milieu & Cos., aud the Hilton &
Dodge Cos., or either of them, lie said, have
not combined with lesser firms to break
down transportation prices or to unduly
advance tbe price of southern pine lumber.
The firms named combined with other man
ufacturers of pine lumber in Georgia and
Flor ida, who have what is known ns rail
road mills, to protect themselves, get rea
sonable prices for their products and l>e
enabled to conduct their business profitably,
which was not always possible under the
cut-rate plan which obtained along the
Georgia ami Florida coast.
“Are the South Carolina mills members
of the exchange*”
No overtures, ho said, had been mode to
the South Carolina mills, who are hardly
considerod competitors of the mills along
theUe rgi i ami Florida coast as the S -uth
Carolina pine is not so valuable as Georgia
nice, Ami do* s not co nmand os good pr.ces
by reason of its inferiority.
“How about the mills on the gulf
coast ?”
“ i’hey are not competitors of the railroad
mills,” was the yeplv. The big nulls in the
neighborhood <|f Pensacola, on Pensacola
bav, Perdido bay and the Escambia river,
are known as water mills, which saw what
is known as “random” lumber for coast
wise and foreign export, mid there is no
pre-eut necessity to invite them to join the
exchange, they are not. competitors of
tho railroad mills. It. may lie after awhile
that it will be necestiry to them t bo in
cluded in some such organization as the ex
change, us tho denuding of the southern
pii e forests is going on rapidly. The rail
road mills cannot afford to waste Material
for random lengths ns the water mills do.
“What southern pine manufacturers com
pose the Pine Exchange, and what is their
annual cut?”
“An approximate estimate of the output
of each of the individual firms is about as
follows:
GEORGIA MIMA

THE WORK ON THO STB fITS.
What the New Council is Doing in
the Way of Improvement.
Tho work of the street force this week
©ill be directed to the putting down ot
street crossings, thirteen of which have
been laid rincethe new council catno in, and
to the cleaning up of the western section of
the city through Yaaiacraw and lloberts
vi lie.
River street and Factor’s walk have bsen
put in sanitary condition and ns fn-t as the
ordinances are violated by lumbering up
the lanes and street* the offenders will be
put ou the information docket. Tho old
piles >f rubbish wiuen have so h ng been an
eyesore on the river front, from
the city exchange to Jefferson street
will lo removed and thereafter Joffer
sou -troet vuil not be permitted
bo used as u dumping place for all tho odds
and ends of tho street renair forces. That
part of the Ray hut ween Whitaker and Bull
lias been clean *! up, and the experiment of
Bbelib g the sidewalk north of the roadway
hos been tried and seem* to work well.
When the Bay is cleaned up, the street
and lane committee will compel property
holders to remove the old “rattletraps ' that
nro dumped on it, many of which have lx*en
permitted to remain there so long mat they
have become unsightly features and caused
many uupleasaut coiumentsfrom strangers.
In connection with the experiments wnh
tho shell pavement it has been suggested
that many of tbe streets impassable fr :n
the deep sand, can be put in good condition
ala comparatively small cxiiet.se, as mil
lions of bushels of shells line the coast and
can l*e brought to the city at a minimum
cost by contracting for them in large lots.
It 1* understood that tbe street and lane
committee will look into the matter.
The work of overhauling the squares,
filling up the depressions in them ami put
ting them in payable condition w ill be con
tinued during the week.
l lu* meeting of council Wednesday night
will le au interesting one, as the c rnmit
tees have had frequent conferences during
the week iu which increased quarantine
facilities, better sanitation and needed im
provements to the street* have been dis
cussed.
Lung Troubles aud Wasting
Diseases can he cured, if proj*erly treated
in time, as shown by tho following state
ment from D. C. Freeman, Sydney: “Hav
ing been a great sufferer from pulmonary I
attacks, and gradually wasting away for (
the past two years, it affords iuo pleasure
to testify that Scott's Emulsion of Cod
Liver Oil with Lime and Soda has given
me groat relief, and I cheerfully recom
mend it to all suffering in a similar way to
myself. Iu additi u, I would say that it is
very pleasant t<* take.”
New church (Swodenborgian; worship to
day in western supper room of Guard*’
hall, at 11 a. m. and Bp. m., Rev. J. K.
Smith officiating. Morning subject—“ True

THE WALLS GOING UP.
The New Hotel Beginning to Take
Shape Rapidly.
I Tho new hotel walls are completed ud to
the first story level, all the joists are laid
I and the window frames in the interior walls
! on Liberty street are in position.
The most of the interior walls are oora
i pleted up to the first story. The brick
piers running up and forming a semi-circle
around the corner at Bull and Harris
j streets have been completed up to the first
I floor, or to the level of the drawing room
I floor. There are ten biers, and they will l>e
j extended up, independent of tho rest ot the
! building, to the second story. At that
point they will be arched over and will
form the exterior wall.
The windows of tho rooms fronting on
the veranda will be arched, similar to the
outer wall of the veranda. It is a pretty
design, and will be one of tho most unique
pieces of workmanship in the city.
Over the drawing room and over the
arched veranda will be the bridal chamber,
and an elegant suite of rooms. The bridal
chamber will be connected with the main
hall, leading in from the main and Harris
street entrance.
Over the Liberty street entrnuco on top
of the sixth story will be a solarium 20x50
feet. It will lie supplied with twenty-one
windows. Haven of these w.ll boon Lib-
I erty street bide and seven on the Harris
street side. Three windows will bo placed
j in the Bull street, side and throe will look
toward Draytou street. Fronting Liberty
i street w ill boa door to tho solarium, which
! will lead out on top of the build
ing proper. The top will be slightly
inclined, with a substantial balustrade
nr >und it. This will prove a delightful part
of iho hotel during the summer. The ele
vator will run up to the solarium, so that it
will not require any exertion on ti e part of
1 1:0 guests to reach it.
The main oni ance will be on Lull street,
about the middle of tho building, and will
lead direct to the office. To the right <>f tho
entrance corridor will be a gentlemen's par
lor and t > tho left a reading room. The office
will be over tho billiard room and in
the roar of the parlors fronting on Liberty
street. The rotunda will be ii tho rear f
the entrance t the main offices. It will ex
tend up to the first story and will be under
neath a skylight, which will give an abund
ance of light, both to tho offices and tho
corridors.
Contractor Lawman said yostorday that
the rotunda for only one story is something
inoderu, and he rather likes it. He said
that the hotel will utilize the room that
would have been taken up by a rotunda ex
tending from pit to dome of tho building.
Besides, the idea of so many rotundas is
antiquated. All of the old administrative
and public buildings are built on that order.
Tho plan of tho now hotel is a departure
from that oil style, and it will bo at
tractive.
Over four carloads of stone have been
used on tho Liberty street walls.
The Liberty and Drayton street sides will
be completed as rapidly as possible, which
will probably be before the rest of the
hotel. About 150 hands, twenty-five of
whom are masons and twenty five carpen
ters are at work on the building. Contrac
tor bowman says that ho will increase nis
force next week.
Ti:K OLD FIRE CISTERNS.
The Authorities Undecided What to
do With Them.
The article in yesterday’s Morning News
about the old pump wells created quite a
! stir, and opinions are divided among the
members of the board of aldermen as to
whut shall be done with thorn. It is a long
time since the wells have been used, but
now that, they have bee t found a disposi
tion is manifested in some quarters to keep
l them so that they may be called into requi
sition in case of fire if tho water works
should get out of order. Those who hold to
this opinion claim that the water in them
is not stagnated, and will not boa menace
to the city’s hqplth. O’hers claim that they
are full of disease germs, and the wafer
should be pumped into the sever and tho
wells sealed lip.
Thor© may arise a contention as to what
department of the city government has con
trol of tbes? wells, lho street and lane
committe?, which has charge of the
squares in which tho wells are located, may
lay claim to them, and it is well known
that Alderman Harmon, chairman of that
committee, is in favor of getting rid of then
as a nuisance. In th** event that, tu y
should lmvo to l>o r sorted to the, could
then be opened ami filled with water until
the exigency had passed.
The health c unmittee will of course stand
by the street and lane committee if it is
found that, tho waters are unsanitary, and
it is likely th it. an early analysis of the
wate • will In made with a vie w to abate tho
nuisance if the water is found to be con
taminated, as is generally supp *sud.
The fire committee will no doubt claim
that the wells coni) under its department.
One Alderman whoa asked what would l>e
done with tho water in them in case of a
fire, if the water works should l*e out of
order, said, **U k 0 it on the tire of c >nrse,’*
I luit Alderman Harm n said on Friday, hat
the health officer would not penni the
water to be pumped into Ihe gutters, fear
ing unsanitary results, and if the wells are
pumped out, hose must be connected with
the sewers, and the water pumped directly
into the sower without appearing above the
surface.
It appears to be reasonably safe to say
that the wells will n>t bo pumped out this
week .*s at first suggested until s uno agree
ment is had, but it is conceded that if after
investigation the itition of the city
require it, there will not t>o any opposition
to putti g them m the proper sanitary con
dition whether it be iliai of abandoning
them in th manner proposed by t e chair
man of tb streets and lanes committee, or
by cleaning them out from tiino to time, and
keeping water in them during seasons when
they are less liable to affect the health of
tho community.
THE ORANGE SEASON OVER.
A Railroad Man’s Estimate of the
Crop.
M. H. Connnlly, Florida freight agent of
the Nashville, Chat tan oga and St. Louis
railroad, will spend Sunday in tho city.
Mr. Connally has been handling the Florida
orange crop in tie interest of h;s road. The
orange season, ho nays, i now practically
over, with the exception of the
shipment of the Indian rive- fruit. The
crop he estimates at from 5,000,000 to 5,250,-
000 boxes, which is over twice what last
year’s cron was. Next season's crop, be
►-avs, will be twice as large as
this season. The movement of oranges
this season, bs says, has beta mors t*> tne
west. Last year fully two-thirds of the
crop went to the eastern markets. This
year fully ono-half of tho crop has gone to
markets in the west.
As soon ns the orange season is dosed Mr.
Corma ly will look after the truck and
watermelon shipments in the interest of his
road, b tu of the latter crops, bs says,
will be heavy.

Emma Abbott closed the most successful
engagement last night that she has ever
played in Havannah.and one of the most suc
cessful that has over played in the south ex
cept in New Orleans. The week’s receipts
were nearly $ 1,000 greater than tho receipts
of her engagement hero a year ago.
Manager Johnson’s books show the re

Abbott week has come to bo tho popular
week of the theatrical season In Savannah,
ami MR* Abbott is beyond doubt tho most
popular singer that has ever sung or acted
in Bavannah.
Abbott in ‘ Faust.’*
The farewell performance by Emma Ab
bott and her company last night was a
musical treat. Gounod’s “Faust” is a
masterpiece of instrumentation, and the
Abbott orchestra, consisting of eight pieces,
did some excellent work. It would have
required eighty instead of eight instru
ments t > do the sc re full justice. Tbe vocal
score is full of the most delicious musical
gems.
Miss Abbot was as great a favorite as
ever and when she came upon the stage the
ovation which she received would have dis
concerted a l<*ss self-possessed person. In
the r le of Marguerite she was quite as suc
cessful ass :o was the previous night as
“Norma.” There was a delicious capric
iousnoss about her acting, in the love scene
in th*' garden. At the end of the third act
she was called before the cur nin and sang
“theflute s<>ng,” followed by the “Last
Rose of Summer.”
The interpolation of songs between acts
is not customary in larger cities, but in
Savannah and other southern cities it is a
regular feature of the performance.
As “Faust,” Michelena quite filled all
anticipations. His voice was fresh, and re
vealed that sweetness of tone and sympathy
of expression for which it is noted. Tho
manner in which he rendered “Salvo di
mori” was a delightful surprise.
Pruette made a eanital “Valentine.” His
melo iious voice and his acting wore both
full of fire and fury. Iu the fourth act
where‘‘Valenti e” is slain, and where ho
takes his last lo k at his coring sister,
Pruette wns particular}' effective. Every
word was inflected with grief and reproach.
Broderick made an excellent “Mephis
topheles.” His make-up was good, aria his
laugh and sneer diabolical and realistic.
1 ho soldier's chorus, “Fold the Flag,” was
the best ch ral effect of the evening.
This Week’s Attractions.
This week’s attractions will bo Dixcy in
“Adonis” to-morrow night, “Muggs’ Laud
ing"’ Wednesday night, and Annie Pixley
rriday and Saturday nights and Saturday
matinee, in “Tho Deacon’s Daughter,’
"/ ta,” and “22, Second Floor,” The
List is her now piece, which
she will present Saturday night.
“Zorn” will l*e played at the matinee, and
“The Deac >n’s Daughter” Friday night. In
h?r new comedy widen was produced for
tho first, time in New York at the Four
teenth Street Theater this month, Miss Pix
lov plays a dual role. In one part she is a
Bociet v lady, happily married and
devoted to horfjfchu-mand and child.
Iu tho other part s te i* a burlesque actress,
whose dashing spirits and madcap vagaries
furnish mucu of tho amusement of the
piece. She is a popular actress in Savan
nah, as she ri everywhere, and wi l hardly
fail to play before large audiences.
Dixoy as ‘Adonis.’*
Of Dixcy as “Adonis,” very little can be
written that the average theater-goer has
not already road. The play is a familiar
one. A great deal of the interest in the
performance centers in Dixey’s specialties.
His imitation of Irving and his
song, “It's English, You Know,” and
his dancing are tho features that
are most known. There are over sixty peo
ple in the company supporting him, and it
includes the leading talent on the line of tho
performance. The sale of seats, which be
gan Friday, is the largest that has been
known since the theater has been under its
present management. Nearly every seat iu
the lower part of the theater was taken
yesterday, and most of the balcony seats
were taken.
Gossip of the Green Room.
“Tx>st in New York” made quite a hit in
New Orleans.
Agnes Herndon his permanently retired
from tho stage.
Smiley Walker, representing Annie
Pixley, was in the city yesterday.
Mrs. Langtry has finally concluded to
abandon “Macbeth,” which has made a
financial failure.
The Hueoulators are not quite broken up
vet. Their headquarters at Livingston’s is
advertising tickets for Dixoy.
Gossip has it that the Prince of Wales has
invited Mrs Potto; - to appear next season
at London in “Anthony and Cleopatra.”
Hermann, the prestidigitateur, bought
last week the entire scci erv of McKee
Rankin’s “Macbeth” I'r SSOO. It cost over
SO,OOO to paint. Hermann, as usual, is more
de.ighted than if he had invented a now
trick.
“Lew” Wallace claims to have received
no less than sixty different requests for per
mission t- dramatize “Ben Hur.” To all of
them he has replied with a respectful nega
tive, and toe st item© v that he himself Las
prepared a s:agu version of Ins novel.
Dion Boucica It remark* that the works
of Aeschylus, of Sophocles, of Euripides,
nod of Aristophanes, come down to us ns
these U:ee, auth is gave them bv tho world,
and wants to knov why Shakespeare lias

THE HQUBEiDRAINAGE QUESTION.
Rudolph Hering, the New York Sani
tary Engineer, Telegraphed For.
At a joint meeting of the drainage and
fluance committees, held yesterday morn
ing, Dr. Falligant, the chairman of the
drainage committee, road a letter from Mr.
Rudolph Hering, the distinguished sanitary
engineer of Now York, in which Mr.
Hering stated that he would leave last
night for Atlanta and Montgomery, and
if the council wished it he could stop over
in Savannah between Feb. 21 and 25, on
his return trip to New York.
Ur. Falligant stated that Mr. Hering wa*
the recognized head of sanitary engineers
in this country, and that with his '.vide ex
perience anti comprehensive knowledge, he
might, mat mr of personal inspection,
make us suggestions of great practical
value in connection wit i house drainage
for this city, and especially in regard to the
Rest mode and location of the outlet to salt
water. As it is desirable to begin this part
of the work a* speedily as possible, he felt
that Mr. Hering’s views, after an individual
examination of the surroundings of the city,
would be entitled to great consideration,
and the committee on drainage, to whom
the subject had been referred, would feel
greatly encouraged in their work.
A res dution was adopted directing Dr.
Falligant to notify Mr. Hering that h>
would be expected here at the time named,
aud tho doctor telegraphed at once to Mr.
Hermg, who may now be expected here tho
latter part of the week.
It is understood that Mr. Hering is not
in harmony with the Waring system, and
that, being a sanitary engineer of wide
reputation, his services are not readily com
manded, uud when given come high.
l)r. Falligant has great confidence in Mr.
Hering s capabilities, and it is learned that
Mr. Hering claims that ho can tell in a very
short time what plans are practicable and
what are not. In fact, he writes that his
experience in such matters will euable him
to give the council much valuable informa
tion after a brief review of the situation.
The doctor dal not succeed in getting hi*
resolution through without a hard struggle.
THE ORPHAN'S HOME.
Rev. L. B. Payne, Agent and Trustee of
the Orphan s Home at Macon, Ga.,
Writes a Letter Dated Feb. stb, 1889.
“I have been using Swift’s Specific with
the children of the orphan’s homo under
my charge with the best results. I begin
its use between nine aud ton years ago, and
have setm mauv remarkable results.
Quite a number of the children had con
stitutional blood diseases resulting from
the sins of the parents, aud every one of
these children wore cured of the horrible
tant by the use of S. 8. 8.
There have als > been scores of children in
tho institution whose systems (they having
been mostly without the benefits of parent
al care) were enervated by dirt eating and
other foul pract ces. Every one of tuoso
children have taken S. S. S. aud all have
been signal benefit Led by it. All havo
been cured who have taken enough of it.
W# have also two inmates of tho home,
subjects of painful recurring attacks of
erysipelas. Neither ono improved under
the treatment usual for the disease. When
all other medicine* was dbearded and they
took S. 8. 8. the cure in each case was
quick and permanent, for they have been
wed for five years aud thero ha* been no
return of ttie disease. I could tell much
more of the remarkable euros uf blood dis
ease by 8. 8. 8., for 1 have soon it u*e i and
know its value. L. B. Payne.

FRUITAGE OF A SHIP'S ANCHOR.
The Dead Body of John, the Tramp,
Clinging to its Flukes.
Coronor W. D. Dixon was called Friday
evening to examine the body of a drowned
mulatto who was found hanging by his
clothes to tho anchor of the steamship
Pawnee, lying at Gordon's wharf. There
was nothing on the person of the drowned
man to identify him. A bunch of keys
was all that was found in his pockets Tne
body, which had evidently been in the
water about two weeks, was not badly de
composed, ad it is believed to be that of
tho mulatto tramp “John,” who fell from
the bowsprit of the brig Jennie Hulbert on
Feb. 1 last, and was carried away by the
undertow before ho could be rescued,
although the accident was noticed at fche
time anti efforts made to save bun.
On the night of Jan. 26 last, he went
aboard the brig, whici was discharging
phosphate rock at Smith & Paulsen’s wharf,
and asked to be given lodging for the night,
which was provided for him in the fore
castle, and after that he was employed at
light work about deck until the Friday
morning following his visit to the brig,
when he fell into the river, and like many
others lost his life in the treacherous under
current. He wore a lightfelt hat and blue
jumper, but no one seems to know where he
hailed from, and he gave no other name
than “John.” The body was interred in the
colored cemetery.

The trial will cost you nothing, and when you
get well acquainted vtftb the piano you won't

Tho whichest is precisely the why we want to

previous house rushing a piano in on you
when you hadn't a ghost of an idea of buying.
But wo don't work that way. We are a ;x
--ious to put our instruments on trial, but we
never force them in without the parlies' con
sent and wish.
Come in aud see our Pianos, and then if you
like them we will be glad of the privilege of
placing one in your home, and giving you every
opportunity to test it as thoroughly as you
eli<o-.e.
All at no cost to you, and if you do not con
clude to buy it -out it comes, quick, and with
out any grumbling or hard feelings. N<r will
we worry you by insisting on a purchase from
us.
Our Pianos sell on their merits, and the only
favor we ask is that they le* given a fair trial.

viz : ('bickering, Mathushek, Mas U it Hamlin,
Sterling, Born and Arion.
Any . f them placed on trial free of all charge
—in your house. No suit, no sa'e.

are getting, and be exactly suited before mak
ing any payments.
Take a Mathushek Piano on trial, and you will
be more than pleased. L. & B. 8. M. 11.
Cotton Seed Lard.
The above article is advertised in to-day’s
Mormno News by the agents in this city,
Messrs. Harmon & Cope, and is for sale by
all tho principal retail grocers in this city.
This new product, the basis of which is
cotton seed, is already a favorito and nec
essary article in the kitchen. A New York
Sun reporter who inspected this now “lard”
found it very appetizing in appearance. It
resembles ordinary lard. It has a slight
odor of the oil, b it is not at all objeebi li
able. It is said to be made of cotton seed
oil aud pure beef fat. It sells at the same
price as tnejbest lard, but tho manufactur
ers claim that it is cheaper, inasmuch as it
requires a lesser quantity to accomplish the
same purpose. It is necessary, in using it,
to put it in a cold pan with the moat or
other food, and let them get hot together,
if it were put in a hot pan tho oil and fat
in the lard would separate. Although this
lard is ma lo for tho use of the community
at large, and is not controlled by Hebrews,
the manufacturers have taken especial
pains to di'seminste their lit rature on the
subject among the Jews of the country.
Their pamphlets are all head© 1 with the
word “Kosher” in Hebrew characters. Ed
itor Davis of the HebreAv Journal said to
the Sun reporter that the new iard was
being extensively used by the Jews in this
city, and that it was saving labor for a
great many Jewish cooks.

The Eyesight
Is one of vhe most precious of the many good
gifts offered for man's enjoyment, llow im
portant it is, then, to watch for the first signs
of failing sight, and guard with great care
against its further encroachments.
The mssi dangerous practice to which persons
whose sight is failing are exposed, is that of
wearing glasses that happen to bo in the house,
belonging to their mother, or perhaps having
boon worn by their grandmother or grand
father, wholly unsuited to their conditions, lit
tle dreaming how great and irreparable an in
jury tiiey are doing to their eyes by using un
suitable spectacles.
They would save themselves a lifelong regret
if they would call at Butler's Pharmacy and
have their eyes proj>erly lilted with glasses that
are known to he good. Hawkes’ Crystallized
lenses, accurately adjusted to the condition of
the eyes, preserve the sight and keep the eyes
