of the Central's Earnings.
Gec.R. P. Alexander,president of the Cen

ceeded in placing the rest of the Savannah
and Western bonds, which amount to
something over $2,350,000.
A Morsino News reporter called on
Gen. Alexander yesterday afternoon, but
the general was not Inclined to talk freely
on the matter. He merely said he was
going to New York to be absent two or
three days, and that there is nothing new in
oonnaction with the Central's affairs, b'-
voed tbe fact that his advices are to the
effect that an inoreased force ix at work
?;rading the Mobile and Uirard extension
rom Troy, Ala., in the direction of Brew
ton.
The total mileage of the Savannah and
Western is 428 miJes, and tbe road is bonded
for (18,000 per mile. None of tbe bouds
have been placed for tbe last two years,
but it is believed now that the rest of tbe
block has been taken and that Oen. Alexan

with closing up the contract for the con
version of the bonds.

A MIDWEEK HOLIDAY.
The Clothing end Dry Goods Clerks
to Play Ball.
Next Wednesday being a Hebrew festival.
Turn Klppur, ail tbeir business bouses will
oloae, and this will give tbe salespeople a
holiday, which they have determined to en
joy by a match game of base ball between
tbe dry goods salesmen and the clothing
salesmen. Tbe game will be called at
Bolton ball part at 10 o’clock a. m.,
and it will be for a puree or
S2OO. The contesting teams are composed
of about the same players as were matched
on the Fourth of July at Tybea, when
Levy’s, composed of clothing salesmen, and
Altmayer’s, composed of dry goods sales
men, played a closely contested game,
which was won by the Levy’s. Fre
quent bantering by the clothing people
has led to a challenge, which was
accepted. Mr. S. G. Sutherland is captain
of the Altmayer's team, and C. H. Connor
will captain Levy’s nine. Gartreli and
Fletcher, the battery for Altmayer's,
are said to play like professionals, Fletcher
having made a great record with the Live
Oaks of Florida. Frizzell and Mallory, tbe
battery for tbe Levys, are more than* ama
teur players, and Connors and L hwald play
freat ball. Gartreli h a all the curves, while
nzzell pitches a straight ball that goes
to tbe baiter as If it were fired out of a gun.
The salesladies are taking a great internet
in the game, and the retail merchants are
pretty evenly divided lu backing the re
spective teams which they think will wiu.
The following are the teams, with their
positions:

DEATH OB’ MSS. KATE DONNELLY.
Orlef of Her Bon Because He Was
Not Informed of Her Illneaa.
Mrs. Kate Donnelly, notice of whose
serious illness was reported lu the Mornino
News, died at tbe Milledgeville asylum
day before yesterday. The deceased was
born In Roscommon, Ireland, and came to
this country in her 12th year. She was
almost 90 years of age, and leaves a son, T.
F. Donnelly, an Industrious employe in the
Central railroad paint shops. The first in
telligence he had of his mother’s
serious illness was the intelligence conveyed
in the Morning News. He telegraphed
to Supt. Powell of the asylum to forward
the remains to Savannah for interment, and
was pained to learn, by the telegraphic
answer that came back, that his mother's
remains had been interred in the asylum
cemetery and could not be disinterred until
next winter. Mr. Donnelly will then re
move the body and give it interment in the
family lot at the Catholic cemetery. He
feels quite put out because he was not com
municated with in the first instance bv the
asylum authorities, the letters being' sent
here to the ordinary, and even the answer
to his telegram was sent in the care of the
ordinary instead of to tbe address lie gave
in bis dispatch.
A HANDSOME LEGACY.
The Boyal Society of Good Fellowa
Pays a $3,000 Life Policy.
The widow of the late J. 8. Ssabrook has
received from Chatham Assembly, Royal
Society of Good Fellows, of this city $3,000

band’s life. The check was paid on the
reoeipt of proof of death. The following
will explain itself:
G KAHAMVTIiLK, Sept. 19, 1890,
Geo. G. TFtlsow, K*q., Ruler Chatham Assembly
No. 136, Royal Society of Good Follows, Ra
vanna i, Ga:
Dear Sir—l beg to acknowledge the receipt
of check for $3,000, in payment or policy for
that amount held by my late husband, J. s.
Seabrook. Yours respectfully,
E. H. Sbabbook.
The Royal Society of Good Fellows have
a strong lodge here, and its members do not
only get the best attention in sickness, but
their life insurance coats them only about
one-third what the life insurance compa
nies charge. The prompt payment will
tend to strengthen the order In this section
of the country.

THE FOOD WB BAT.
Unsanitary Conditions In and About
the City Complained of.
Inspector Desvergers of the Citizens’ San
itary Association, in his report of inspec
tions for the week ending last night, reports
Uie quality of food produce in the Savannah
market ae follows:
Dressed beef, dressed mutton and dressed
poultry, sausages, meat pudding3, pickled
beef, piokled tripe and pickled pig’s feet
averaged good: dressed pork t corned beef
and fresh tripe inferior.
Fish improved iu quality, hut very scarce;
clams, crabs and shrimp good and plentiful.
Green vegetables inferior and sweet po
tatoes average good.
The inspector reports that complaints
have been coming in ot late from every
section of tbe city of the vault nuisance,
and that some of the complaints wore in
reference to vaults within such proximity
to sewers as to bring them within car ordi
nance of ISH9, whioh requires their discon
tinuance. Rank and noxious weeds are
overrunning a number of enclose! yards in
tbe very heart of the city. The railroad
companies seem to have track builders
who take no thought as to the consequences
to the inhabitants of Kavannah of excavat
ing borrow pits along their road-beds, and
leaving them disconnected and undralned,
in dangerous proximity to the city.
They also construct tracks which form are 9
between the Hues into which water collects
and produces unsanitary conditions,
although a little provision for drainage
during the oonstruotiou of the road-bed
would obviate such conditions. This is
particularly observable on the Savannah,
Florida and Western railway wharves,
where such conditions have been produce!
by the construction of switohes and side
linns and additional road-bods iu the rear of
the naval stores sheds.

THE MISFIT SHELVES.
One Hundred and Thirty-nine Books
of Record Won’t Fit.
An investigation of the books in the of
fice of the clerk of the superior court shows
that 139 of the hooka of record are too long
to be accommodated in the new metallio
shelving. As is often the case, no one knows
w here to place the blame for the blunder.
As it will spoil the binding, and would
probably mutilate the pages of tho
record, there is considerable objection
to having the hooks cut off. The opinion
is expressed that a section of metallio shelv
ing will have to be ordered to aocoinmodate
the books which cannot be given room in
the shelving now in the vault.
Clerk Keilbach of the court of ordinary
says he wants to remove the books and
records of the ordinary’s office next
Wednesday from the temporary vault in
Telfair place to their now vault in tho court
house. This will depend on whether or not
the metallio tables arrive by that time.

RAIL AND OROSSTIE.
Managers of the Millen and Southern
olaim lo have ample means to build the
road. There are also to be three extensions,
aggregating 230 miles.
The latest railroad news is that the Balti
more and Ohio will build a road by the
shortest practical route from the Knoxville
Southern to the oity of Chattanooga.
The Louisville and Nashville authorities
have agreed to allow the oauntv cotton
weigher at A then?, Ala., to weigh cotton
on their platform, a id he is now doing so.
The pay train of the Augusta division of
the Central system has just finished its
monthly rounds. It paid to employes, so a
well-known financier estimated yesterday,
about $45,000.
Indications of a probable new railroad
Hue from Chattanooga northward to Cum
berland Gap is very gratifying intelligence
to a large class of people living along the
prospective route, the heart of East Ten
nessee.
W. W. Haralson of Talladega was in
town Monday, says tho Sholby Chronicle.
He is oonuected with the Birmingham and
Atlantic railroad, and was there to open
books of subscription to the capital stock of
that road.
C. P. Atmore, ,Tr„ son of C. P. Atmcre,
the popular general passenger agent of the
Louisville and Nashville, has been appointed
traveling passenger agent of the Alabama
Midland railroad, with headquarters at
Louisville, Ky.
Where the South Bound crosses tbe Sa
vannah river tho Georgia side is lined by a
big bluff, but the South Carolina swamp
lauds extend buck some distance from the
river, and tresttiug will be necessary in ap
proaching the bridge. The trestle work, of
which there will bo considerable, has been
awarded an Augusta contractor, Mr. Wash
ington Adams. He has begun the shipment
of material to Sisters’ ferry by river steamer,
and will begin operations in a short time.
He will senddowu two complete pile-driving
outfits.
The Chattanooga limes says it is now an
assured fact that the consolidated shops of
the Queen and Crescent system will be built
at an early day on tho site of tho old Ala
bama Great Southern shops in that city.
President Sohiff left orders at Birmingham
when upon his last visit to that city that a
force of men be immediately dispatched to
tear down the old buildings in that city. He
at the same time stated that the plans were
completed and he would hurry up the en
fineers as soouas he returned to Cincinnati.
he piansj are for brick buildings, and wiU
cover the entire block from Montgomery
avenue to Hooks street. When completed
these will be the largest railroad shops in
the south. The lease of the Queen and
Crescent by the East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia makes Chattanooga the center
of that system, and a very important point
as regards repairs. Work will be com
menced at once, and soon the old buildings,
that have been au eye-sore to Chattanooga
citizens, will be a thing of the past.
The work of construction on the Mobile
and Girard extension from Troy, Ala., to
Brewtcn or some other point c-n the Louis
ville and Nashville railway not yet deter
mined, is being pushed very rapidly. Mr.
J. P. Kuabe, secretary and treasurer of the
Vnu Kirk Land and Construction Company,
says the company have given their notes
and executed their contracts for the road
bed and ties,and have the guarantee of the
Central Railroad and Banking Companyjof
Georgia that as noon as the roadbed is com
plete and tbe ties are down, they will lay
the rail. Messrs. Worthington, Elliott and
Deßardeloben have the contract for the
grading from Troy to Andalusia, and the
balance of the work is yet to be let. Tho
work is now being pushed ns fast as men
and money can do it. There are over 400
men on the work, and the contract specifies
that everything between Troy and Anda
lusia, except laying the rail, shall be com
plete in about ten months from this date,
and tbe probabilities are that the work wiil
be finished even sooner than that.
The Americas Recorder says the Central
railroad finds itself deluged with freight.
The wonderful growth of tho business of
Americus has poured thousands and thou
sands of pounds of freight into tho hands of
the Central road which it did not receive
two years ago. Another road has been
built to Americus, and in the short time it
has been open' dit has built up a business
that it now finds itself almost unable to
accommodate. Both roads find themselves
in the most crowded condition in Americus
of any roads, no doubt, in Georgia.
On all bands is the cry of more thau can be
done. Mon are put on double duty. Ex
tras are called in, and everything pushed to
the utmost capacity, but to little purpose.
The roads are noth overwhelmed with work.
The yards of the Central have become so
crowded that tbe management hove found
it necessary to put another switch engine to
work. This was dope yesterday. The
depot is filled with freight, and merchants
find it very difficult to obtain their goods,
owiug to the enormous bulks of freight on
hand.
Col. Jacob T. Child, late Cuitod States Min
ister to Siam, will return to his old home in

POOLER NB7/8 BUDGET.
Some of tbe Citizens Object to (be
Chain-gang’s Work.
Tbe many friends of Walter Ham will
regret to learn that his condition has not
changed since last Tuesday, when ha had a
second atta -k of paralysis. He lies in a
very precarious condition.
B. Roth well has resigned his position as
agont of the Central railroad, and will now
devote his entire time to private business
On account of some parties objecting to
the ditches tsing cut on their lots, tbe
chain-gang has left off the work they in
tended to do, and have crossed ever to
tbe south side of the railroad track,
near the store of S. H. Collins,
where they will do some ditching.
The citizens of Pooler have been try
ing for tbe past year to get the county com
missioners to have the place drained, and
now tbat the work has been commenced the
general opinion is expressed that it is in
bad taste to try and throw obstacles in the
way of the work, but that, on the contrary,
every one should try aud encourage the
work, as it will be for the good of not
only one, but for the entire community.
The name of “Uncle” Mike Jordan's train
will have to be changed now from the
“goober” to the “vestibule.’’ Thirteen
months ago tbe train consisted of only one
car and an engine. In the early part of the
summer another car was added, aud last
week a third oar was put on the Una This
Is tbe result of a steady increase of travel.
Everybody has a chance to get a seat now

Not much more than a million feet of
square and scab timber will be measured
at the public boom during the month of
September.
The “C. K. Buckley” is the name of a
now schooner now being built for the lumber
trade, and she will run between Doboy and
Brooklyn.
The foreign timber business continues to
be distressingly dull, with no apparent pros
jiects of its eettiug uny better soon. How
ever, the business may look up a little in
the fall.
The James K. Clarks Lumber Compe l}
have just put In a ulnety-foot smokestack

A Word With You.
Dear Reader: We want your trade, and
by means of this * ‘ad” are seeking to get
your attention and attract you to our
store. If you are a customer of ours we are
anxious to increase our business with you;
if you are not we hope you soon will be,
as no honorable means will be spared to
attain this end.
That we keep the best qualities of every
thing all who deal with us will attest, aud,
while we kuo.v cheap, trashy stuffs often
catch the unwary and inexperienced, we
prefer to maintain our weft-earned and
wide reputation, and let somebody else sell
trash and shoddy. Nothing is misrepre
sented, as we would rather miss a sale than
deceive a customer. We guarantee you the
lowest possible figures. Our stock is the
finest, most varied and attractive we have
ewer shown.
What we want you to do is to visit our
store, whether you buy or not. We will
treat you as nicely as we know how, and
will not insist on selling yon against your
iuclination, but we do insist that you exam
ine our goods and see for youi self if it is
not to your interest to deal with us.
We are anxious for your trade and influ
ence, and when you come to sie us we will
make your visit at least a pleasant one.
F. B.—Sae large “ad.”
