    TEK CALENDAR CRAZE.
people Usinir Them to Decorate Their
Libraries and Parlors.
D;j anybody evor see so many calendars?
gyery store and office has two or more, and
sometimes half a dozen. Business men take
[H -m home aud decorate their libraries, and
it is becoming the fashion to have them in
parlors and dressing rooms. In fact calen
dars are quite the thing now. The run on
them is remarkable.
Asa means of advertising the calendar is
widely used. Up to a few years ago the
insurance eompau-’es only got out calendars.
A rivalry sprang up between them, and
sane very protty ones were sent out. The
attention of business men was attracted
by the scheme, and gradually the style of
advertising drifted that way. The plan is
s popular one, and the money spent 'in get
ting out the calendars for 1890 will rup up
into hundreds of thousands of dollars. The
amount of paper used would make a sheet
l.irge enough to cover a good portion of
Georgia. The number of calendars dis
tributed throughout Georgia since the new
year came in would fill several railroad
cars.
The lithograph companies in the country
are making a specialty of getting out oalen
dare. Over a dozen representatives of litho
graphing firrfft were in Savannah before the
holidays soliciting orders for calendars.
Their assortment of samples was great.
B >me of the companies printed nothing
costing less than 35 cents. They were very
large plates, with every imaginable design.
The De Soto got out probably the most
costlv, and a good many think the most
tasty, calendar seen in Savannah this sea
son. It is a large silk face case, made as a
frame for cards, which are slipped in and
out from behind the frame.
The insurance companies have kept up
their record. Some of their calendars have
steel engravings, similar to those on bank
notes, enlarged, with the calendar at
the bottom of the card board,
which measures probably a foot and a half
square. Tha Morning News calendar is
no doubt more sought after than any. It
containesplendidengravingsof theDe Soto,
the new court house, and tue new postoffice.
Some of the calendars now being given out
are made of blotting paper. Avery neat
and convenient calendar for business men is
the “stub leaf” caleudar. It is provided
with 365 leaves, about 3x3 inches in size,
fastened together at the top like an oblong
book. The lower part of the leaf has the
day and date in large letters and figures,
and the top of the leaf is a ruled memoran
dum.
Another convenient form of calendar is
that gotten out by some of the wholesale to
bacco and liquor houses. The days of the
week, the month, ar.d the dates are on a
6ingl6 sheet at the side. In the center of the
sheet is a place tfor memoranda. The
leaves are fastened at the top, in book form,
and the whole is fastened on a prettily
painted tin frame, which is made to Bet on
the desk. Some exquisite calendars have
been got out by the fertilizer companies and
browing companies.
The " railroads have also adopted the
calendar as a means of advertieing. Some
of the r.oatest calenders got out are by the
railroads. So popular has the calendar
grown that it is quite the thing as a Christ
mas present or a Now Year’s gift.
A party in Savannah received, not many
days ago, and elegantly hand-painted silk
calendar from an Atlanta friend. It was a
foot square with a silk ribbon containing
the month, the days of tho week, and the
date. 11 is made so as to revolve on a wheel,
and will be serviceable for several years.
A good many hand-painted calendars
were sent out during the holidays by young
ladies. The jewelers get out very pretty
designs. Some of them designed after
clocks and watches, with the calendar part
in the center as a dial. The northern daily
newspapers have also placed a good many
calendars in Savannah this year. Colored
boys have been running ovor town distrib
uting calendars ever smco Christmas.
A business man on Bryan street has made
it a point to save every caleudar that came
along, and yesterday bo counted them and
he had fifty-three. It is a pretty assort
ment. They run from small three-inch
calendars up to fine steel engraved plate
calendars a foot square.
“GWINB” TO HAVE HIS MAN.
A Bad Joke Put Up on Justice Kelly’s
Constable.
Constable Staley of Magistrate Kelly’s
court had a queer experience with tho law
a day or two ago, and in his official capacity
as an officer ho is somewhat disappointed at
the way Sheriff Ronan keeps prisoners
locked up in the jail. When Staley
left the city on his way back to Justice
Kelly’s office he had not fully recovered
from his surprise, and he was soliloquizing
on the question of “outraged jestes.”
The son of John Paschal, the negro who
was sentenced to six months on the chain
gang in the city court, Monday, for the
larceny of a trunk from Ambas Peak, went
before Justice Kelly and asked that a
warrant be issued for Peak, and that he be
arrested and made to give bond to keep the
peace. The warrant was issued with the
usual promptness and was put in the hands
of Staley, who placed the “ dOcvment ” in
the inside pocket of his coat, jumped
astraddle of his white mule, and, with a
cheerful “gee up,” started for the city.
When the constable reached town he
made a few inquiries and soon located Peak,
who was unconscious of tho situation. Ho
was pointed out to Staley, who ap
proached him, and, tapping him gently on
the shoulder, said:
“I’ve got a warrant for you.”
“A warrant for what?” asked Peak, look
ing up in surprise.
“A warrant for disturbing de peace,”
answered the constable, his brea3t hoaving
with emotion as ho pulled out tho warrant
which had by that time become full of
creases and wrinkles, and which presented a
rather soiled appearance.
“All right,” said Peak, “if yer is a con
stable I’se better go wid yer.”
Peak’s words maao an impression upon
the constable, who smiled a smile of satis
faction, and together they started off.
Before they had gone far, however, Peak
asked the constable if he could see his law.
yer, and the constable acquiesced. Peak
had a talk with Lawyer Morrison and they
started together for Magistrate Reynolds’
office, where Staley said the warrant was.
When they reached the office Staley was
asked for the warrant and he replied:
“Judge Keeley got um.”
Mr. Jlorrison at once notified So’.icitor
General Fraser’s office, and after telling
him the nature of tho case, secured Peak’s
discharge. Peak was given the “discharge”
and told not to say anything about it to tae
constable until he got to tho jail, and then
hand it to one of the jailers. Mr. Morrison
told the constable that he would have to
arrest Peak at his own peril, as he had no
warrant, and the constable replied:
“Rat’s all right, boss; I’so gwiue to bring
dis man to jail.”
Aftor obtaining a committal he wont
down to the jail and told Sheriff Ronan,
"ho was at the jail, to “put di3 nigger in a
cell,” and left.
Peak handed his discharge to Sheriff Ro
tan, and it scon appeared to the sheriff that
it was a joke perpetrated upon the constable,
and he immediately turned Peak loose.
As Peak stepped out of the jail-yard gate
the constable got a glimpse of him. Staley
h'd not molest Peak after that, and he
walked as fast as he could to get away from

TO “TOTH” HI3 GUITAR.
A Convict's Request of the Judge,
After He was Sentenced.
“Boss, won’t you pleaso ax de coht jedge
ef I may tote de guitah wiv me w’ea I go?s
to de ooli minesP This was tho last re
quest Willie Moore (oolored) made of his
counsel, Thomas S. Morgan, Jr„ after the i
prisoner hai been sentenced last night to 1
two years in the penitentiary, having been
convicted of shooting at John Graham.
The court had no objection, if tho sheriff
and penitentiary guard lias not, and Sheriff |
Honan told the one-handed prisoner he
could take his guitar along.
Like so many of his rac >, Moore hne decided
musical talent, and he soon became an ex
pert guitar player. Four months ago he
drifted to Savannah, making money here
and there by his musical performances. He
has learned to write very fairly with his
left hand, and he wrote out a version of the
causes which led to his shooting at Graham,
and handed it to the court reporter of the
Morning News, with a request that it bo
published, saying at the time that he had
never been in trouble in tho courts before.
Moore is not a bad looking boy, yet the
evidence was too strong against him, and
an earnest appeal for clemency by his
counsel increased the svmpatny for him.
Moore hails from Now Branford, Fla.,
and is not yet 21 years old. In a boy’s
fight six years ago his youthful antagonist
bit him on t..e right hand, and
pyaemia setting in, tha hand had to
be amputated to, save the arm.
Moore says in brief that he was in a shop
on Bryan street Dec. 33 last, aud Graham
wanted him to play the guitar. Moore
said he was trying to got money to moke
his way back home and told Graham so,
asking him if he would pay lnm for plav
ing, wheu Graham insisted on having the
music without paying for it, and Moore
still refusing, Graham throw $3 on the
counter and boasted that he would not pay
for the music, but he had plenty of money,
and becoming angry at Moore drew a knife,
and when Moore also draw a knife to de
fend himself Grahamcut at him. Moore says
he ran out in the lane pursued by Graham
who finally cornered him in a square and
cut him in the hand. Then Moore draw his
pistol from a vest pocket, fired, missed,
called for help, threw his weapon on tho
ground, and grabbed Graham’s hand to pre
vent him from using the knife, and so held
him until a policeman came up and took
them both to the barracks.
Mooro shows a scar 6h his thumb, where
he says Graham cut him when Moore
caught his hand. There was soma tall
swearing on both sides, and the court did
not give the full penalty, although there
was no recommendation for mercy. He
could have sentenced tho prisoner to four
years, and he gave him but two.
"FRANK" GRAHAM’S &SCAPE.
The Young Thief Keeps Well Out of
the Officers’ Way.
“Frank,” alias “Sam” Graham, tha negro
boy charged with stealing S6O from the
safe in Mrs. Bario’s drug store on West
Broad and Bryan streets, two or thro3 days
ago, has outgeneraled thq officers so far.
Justice McDermott received information
of the boy day before yesterday through a
merchant at Burroughs station, on the Sa
vannah, Florida and Western raiway. The
merchant said that ho sold a boy a ticket
to Fleming and also $6 worth of goods. He
said that he asked tho boy where ho was
from, and “Frank” replied that ho worked
in a drug store on West Broad street.
As soon as the magistrate received the
information Chief Green was consulted,
and Detective Si Baseh went down to
Fleming to see what could be learned of
the young thief’s whereabouts. A war
rant was sworn out in Magistrate McDer
mott’s court, charging “Frank” alias
“Sam” Graham with stealing the money.
The detective returned yesterday, but with
out Graham. He was unable to get a trace
of him, and the warrant was loft with an
officer at Fleming to execute, iu case the
boy was seen there again.
It is learned now that the boy’s mother
lives in the country, seven miles from
Fleming, and it is believed that “Frank”
has gone there.

Seventy-Five Cents On the Dollar.
The last chance, but a stunner. The time
for moving of “The Famous’’ is rapidly ap
proaching, and I offer as a parting shot
twenty-five per cent, discount to every pur
chaser. Competitors (because of the low
prices lam selling before moving) try to
make customers believe that my goods are
old, shop-worm, and what not. Such
talk any sensible man can see into. There
is not a fresher stock of Clothing in Sa
vannah. My goods are marked iu plain
figures, and, as i3 well known, the lowest
prices always at “The Famous.” I offer,
you know, on the top of the low prices, a
discount of twenty-five per cent., not only
only on Clothing, but on Hats, Shirts, and
on everything in tho house. There is no
humbug or subterfuge about this. If you
buy S3O worth you will get a present of $5.
It is just the samo as a present, because you
couldn’t buy the same amount of goods for
less than S3O anywhere. Don’t let slurs in
fluence you, but go direct to “The Famous”
to make your puichases, and you will save
money. 144 Congress street, corner Whit

A Kavenoua Lion at Bay.
A hungry lion is commonly considered a
most dangorous customer, and natural im
pulse is to stop him in his deadly career.
Impure blood is a ferocious and pitiless foe,
dashing through tho arterial system of the
human body, destroying the health and
sapping life itself. It comes hydra-like in
mauy-headod luipotuousuess, as Rbouma
tism, Scrofula, Ulcers, Scald Head, Gout,
Syphilis, or that dread nightmare of con
tent, Dyspepsia. P. P. P. (Prickly Ash,
Poke Root and Potassium) is the valiant
rescuer who comes to our aid, and replaces
health triumphantly on its throne. Women
who are worn down and discouraged, have
found P. P. P. an invaluable tonic, regain
