The Board of Health’s Expenses Con siderably Beyond What Was Looked For—The Street and Lane Depart ment's Expenditures. The statement of the expenditures of the city departments for the iirst and second quarters of this year vras submitted to the city council at its meeting yesterday after noon. According to the statement, all the de partments, with the exception of the board of health and streets and lanes, hare kept within the budget appropriation. The board of health has expended f 0,008 18 more than the appropriation, but $18,500 was on account of small-pox, which, of course, had not been looked for when the budget was made up. The crematory also came in for $3,000. After it was completed it was discovered that, through some over sight, no provision had been made for its vanning expenses, and the amount neces sary tor this purpose was charged to the board of health. Had it not been for these extraordinary calls, the department would easily have kept within the appropriation. lu the apparently heavy expenses of tho street and lane department is included the shell paving of Henry, Auderson and other streets, and 84,2(10 worth of work done for the Central railroad and other parties. This will be refunded to the city, and two-thirds cf the cost of the shell pavements will have to be paid by persons owning property on these streets. Wheu these amounts are turned bac.c to tho department the expenses will be easily kept within the budget.

Commissioners Walker, Read aud Estill were present. Tho sheriff was instructed to advertise and sell insolvent tax fl. fas., and Oapt. John R. Dillon was authorized to purchase them for the county. The sum of $299 50 was appropriated for the poor fund for July. A letter was read from Col. C. H. Way offering to donate the necessary land for a public road from Beaulieu, provided the count}' would build tho road. The letter was referred to the county engineer. • The hearing of the oyster case of Baker vs. Sawyer, owing to tho absence of an im portant witness, was continued until July 15. County Map Engineer Blanford submit ted a map and report on Estill avenue. On motion of Dr. Head tho lines designated on the map were made the lines of the road. Dr. Brunner’s bill for services rendered in caring for county small pox patients was passed. Tho board, after transacting some other business, took a recoss until next Wednes day. PLENTY O? RSIN NOW. Heavy Falla All Over the Southern States. There was a generally heavy rainfall throughout tho south yesterday, every dis trict reporting rain in some amount. The average in the Savannah district was a little better than half an iuch. Alapaha re ported over an inch, Albauy over an inch and a half. Fort Gaines nearly two inches and Cordele, Eastman, Gainesville, Quit man and Thomasvllle from oue-quartur to three-quarters of au inch eaoh. The highest average rainfall in tho cot ton region districts was in the Mobile dis trict, whioh reported over one and one-half inches, with tho Atlanta and Montgomery districts next, reporting about one inch each. There were several showers in Savannah during the afternoon, which aided in cool ing the air considerably. There was a pretty high wind. A wind-storm and rain seem to be part of tho weather programme every day now. Cautionary storm signals were flyiDg from the signal office last night. JUSTICE REYNOLDS FINED. Mayor Ulmer Decides He Obstructed Policeman Kelly In Hla Duty. Justice of the Peacs Bim Reynolds was before Mayor Ulmer at Tybe? yesterday charged with obstructing Officer Kelly in the discharge of his duty. A number of witnesses were sworn and testified in the justice’s favor, but the mayor decided that the polioemen of 'lybee must be protected, and fiued the justioe $lO. Ho gave bond and will certiorari the case to the superior court. Janioi Lane was also fi ied #lO for the same offense. The o her cases will be tried later in the week or next week. They grew out of the clubbing last Sunday on Lane’s platform, in which a countryman, who was asleep, was beaten by Policeman “Australian” Kelly. Wing Chine Lee Doing to Leave. Wing Ctiing Lee, tho Broughton street Chinese merchant, is going to sell out and leave Savannah. Lee called at the Morn* ing News office last night to explain why he is going to leave Savannah. He says he has been losing monoy ever since he has been here. In fact his business did not seem to take. His sales did not amount to more than #ls or #2O a month, which was dot enough to pay his rent. Wing says he hag lost so niucu money lately that he will bo obliged to go to wort at something else to make a living. He will go to Fort White, Fla., where he has engaged to cook for Chas. H. Deans, superintendent of one of the phosphate companies at Fort White, employing a large number of hands. Wing used to cook in Arizona, he says, where he made big wages. Wing Ching Loo has been in Savannah nine months and has generally bsen re garded as the most intelligent and the best educated of his countrymen hero aud the head of the Chinese oolouy.

In the consolidation of the Georgia Pacific and Central interests in Birmingham natur ally leads to a consolidation . f olfices and a reduction of expenses. About Aug. and, it has been intimated, there will be a few changes there. The consolidation of the Georgia Pacific and Columbus and Western freight departments under the management ofajointageut.lt is understood, has been settled upon. Just who will fill the place has not yet been determined by tho superin tendent. If there is anything a colored man or woman likes it is a ride on a railroad, and tne average countryman had rather spend his money on an egcursion ticket, no matter where, than anything else. The Central railroad brought in over 3,500 negroes this week from Gordon and intermediate points and Waynesboro and intermediate points, it took several special trains to handle the crowd, besides a large number that came In on the regular trains. This large influx of colored excursionists into the city was not noticeable in the busi ness portion of the town, however, as they mostly betook thermal v.s to Yamrcraw, BoberttfVille and tho Oid Fort. Over 3,300 of the excursionists returned on yester day’s train. The Pike’s Peak railway is now !n suc cessful operation. The fl> st passenger train reached the summit on June 30. The train consisted of an engine and one car, occu pied by sixty-five people, mostly excur sionists from Denver. Tho lower ter:nlnu9 of the line is 6,400 feet above the sea level, anil the upper 14,147. The distance is nice miles and the steepest grade is 25 por cent, on a rise of one m forty. On the way up a slight snow squall was encountered, and on the summit the air was unpleasantly cool, even with heavy overcoats. The engine used on the train weighs forty tons. It operates by cogwheels alone. The rear of the locomo tive is elevated so that the boiler is noar.y level when on tho highest grades. As the engine pushes the train up hill instead of pulling, it has no use for a pilot or "cow catcher,” and indeed resembles in hardly any respect the ordinary locomotive. The passenger coaches do not diirer materially from the ordiuary Pullman coach, but are constructed so that the passengers sit com fortably in a horizontal position when the car is on an inoline. Altogether, the line is said to be the most novel as well as the highest railroad in the world. The stockholders of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company met in Louis ville this week and ratified the purchase of the Kentucky Central railroad, the increase of the stock of the Louisville and Nashville company to $55,000,003 and the acceptance of the company’s proportion of the addi tional issue of Nashville, Chattanooga and Bt. Louis stook. The stock represented was 308,416 shares, and all was cast for the prop ositions named. While it was currently be lie vea that the directors would carry through sucoessfuily their plans for authorizing a further iaiua cf Btook, the theory naturally arises that an increase in capitaliza tion must impress the existing shareholders unfavorably. The whole situation is om bftrra sing. The company would undoubt edly prefer to pay for the Keutucky Cen tral in the Louisville 4 per cent, treasury bonds, but this corporation is iu the same difficulty as the Burlington and Quincy. There is no market f r bonds, and if any liability of the kind was to be pat i in such securities tho result would be a break in the Drioe of the bonds the moment the new holders should choose to market them. Inasmuch a* the company’s managers are themselves large holders of tho 4 per cents, the alternative was anything but inviting. CITY BSSVirtEA Zerabbabel Lodge No. 15, F. and A. M., meets to-night. Division No. 1, A. O. H., will give its annual excursion t}Tybee to-day. A moot ing of tho commit'ee in charge was held last night, and from the reports of sales of tickota a big crowd will go down to the island. Trains will leave the city at 9:30 o’clock a. in., 2:39, 3:30,5, ti and 7:15 o’clock p. in., returning from the island at 4:53, 5:53, 8 and 10 o’clock. Lane’s pavilion has been engaged, and brass and striDg music will he in attendance. The price of ticket is 50 and 25 cents, and they can be obtained from the committee or at the depot. E. A. M. Schroede’s horse was standing in front of his grocery at tho corner of West Broad and South Broad yesiorday morning hitched to the delivery wagon. Tho animal to k fright at something aud dashed down the street at a great rote. The wheel of the wagon struck the street car track, causing the wagon to twist to one side. The horse slipped and fell against the hitching post in front of the new Cen tral railroad office, tearing it down, the horse falling dead over on the sidewalk. The horse was considerably bruised about the head, but the wagon, strange to say, was not damngod at all. Take Simmons I.her Regulator afior your dinner. It preienls dyspepsia ami imllgrs tion.—Ad.

The colored oxcursion which went out to Mclntosh this week was raided while pic nicking in the woods by turpentine bauds armed with rifles who .plundered the excursionists of their provisions and threatened to fire on them if they offered any resistance. 1 he oxcursionists train was taken possession of, and the raiders ran things pretty much their own way.

Fifteen young women and eighteen young men began the federal inspection of p irk in Nelson Morris’ offices at the stack yards yesterday. Tho American hog is not held in the best of favor in foreign countries. Two or three years ago some Germans ate heartily of the animal, and when they died a day or two later the coroner said that the hog was unwell when he was killed, and that it was dangerous for tho rest of the people of the empire to eat the im ported meat. Thus the Reichstag, with Wicdthorst in hts seat, urged war against the American hog, and by speech and reso lution finally succeeded in closing the ports of the empire to the food produot. The hoisting of the bars before the great Ameri can animal naturally caused consternation in this country, and for months and months the newspapers were filled with diatribes against the German parliament aud the kaiser for their hostile attitude. But the United States is going to defend its hog. An aot was passed at the last session jof congress providing for the ex amination of domestic pork, and an appro priation of $200,000 was made for the pur pose. And then, too, jusb to make the thing through and leave no opening for attack, two eminent German raicroscopists were chosen by Secretary of Agriculture Rusk to assist In the examinations. Thr.?e men are Dr. E. Balzar and F. W. Bernard of Uerllng. Microscopist John Michels of Ne v York was in ohargo of the force yesterday. Tne young women and men who assisted the two Germans and the professor from New York had had no experience in the exam ination of hog meet beneath the glass. But when they finished their work Prof. Michels complimented them and told them to he on hand early this morning. “It is a broad subject," ho said, scraping pieces of tender loin from Che table at which ho stood, "but I am confident that with the precaution ebat is now being taken the American hog will be welcomod in all lands.” Meat from the bones of 200 hogs was ex amined yesterday. This is the way tha work was done: Old 6re’r hog oame a grunting and a squealing to his butcher. He wore a number, and after death had come to him Dr. R. W. Hickman, w ith a big knife in his right band, slushed off a piece of the diaphragm and a chunk of the rump, or loin muscle, and placed them iu a tin box corresponding in number with the tag on the carcass. These specimens were then sent to tha laboratory, where Prof. Michels handed them to au examiner. Thou a portion of the meat was macerated and clamped be tween the Btout glasses of a microscope. The examiner squinted into the instrument for trichina spiralis, and, finding none, filled out a blank report to that effect, which was afterward approved by Prof. Miohela. Then those report) were handed to Sur geon Hickman, who in turn permitted the carcass to be out up for the people of the whole world. But if the examiner, bend ing attentively over bis mioroscope, had found the presence of trichime or any trace of them in tho meat the hog would have been destroyed then and there. Tho outozoon known as trichina spiralis is the larva of which is olassed bv bearded men who read books as a nannato de helminth. The male is usually one eighteenth of an inch long. Tho female grows to the length of one-eighth of an inch. Little i3 known of their origin, but it is probable that if the hog kept himself cleau, cr if the follow who has him in charge paid any attention to his sanitary condition, the beast would not be troubled with trichina spiralis. Filth and neglect give birth to this pest, just as sewer gas starts diphtheria and makes men stop paying their rent. Rats have trioh inse. They have lots of them, and some of the scientific men who were at the stock yards said that tba infection of hogs can be traced to rats which they have devoured. There is a great deal about the explana tion of these microscopists as to the origina tion and life of this eutozoon which can scarcely be comprehended by a man unless he knows all about hogs. J ust by way of n side remark, and offered in an off hand way. Prof. Michels said that Irichinm were al most always found in the pupa state en cysted in a calcareous envelope and quite dormant. In this condition, the lea ned professor continued, the entozoa are practi-, rally innoxious to the hog and may remain so for any length of lime. But when tho defected meat is taken into the human stomach the gastric juices dis solve the cystio envelope and tha flesh in which they are embodied and the parasites instantly begin a troublesome migration to the large mus cles of the viotim. During their march they do such things as pierce the wails of the stomach ar.d alimentary tract, aud claw at the mesentery with its lymphatic net work and the tissues of the abdominal cav ity. If they travel upward they must pierce tho muscular diaphragm, aud hero they have the offensive habit of taking up their abode, walking out no wand then to to so a bite at a man’s heart or lung. If the entozoa persist in going on a downward path they roost in the great sartorial muscles or other muscular masses of the lower abdominal region and of the lower limbs. From the moment the entez >a eater the human body they have but one thing in mind, and that is to get a good place and there reconstruct their cysts. Then they begin to propogata with fearful rapidity. The poor mau, if he be a man, suffers terrifio pain. He becomes feverish. Inflammation attacks the alimentary tract and now and then peritonitis sets in. This complication is quite likely to cause death. Thus it will be seen that the parasite is a bad thing to carry around in the human system. Secretary Rusk is here watching the ex aminations. He was pleased with the work yesterday. When the force of microscopis*.3 is thoroughly organized, it is his belief that the trichiuae will be as scarce in Chicago hogs ns pearls in their troughs. Tux boy who has put his tongue to his skate knows how it burns. So Calvin Meek (colored), when pinned against the engine in a railroad wreck cries out the he is freezing to death. It is the same thing. So.entitle persons make a pretty experiment with solid carbonic acid, blistering the fingers with cold. But Meek is po-sibly the first man on jecord who Inverted the sensations in his perception o' them, and used the word "freezing'’ to describe those of actual burning. A peciiHar fact with refer ence to Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery is, that, unlike sarsapanllas and other blood medicines,which are said to be good for the blood in March, April and May, the “ Discovery ” works equally well all the year round\ and in all cases of blood-taints or humors, no matter what their name or nature. It’s the cheapest blood purifier sold through drug gists. JVhy? Because it’s sold on a peculiar plan , and you only pay for the good you get. Can you ask more ? “ Golden Medical Discov ery” is a concentrated vege table extract, put up in large bottles ; contains no alcohol to inebriate, no syrup or sugar to derange digestion ; is pleasant to the taste, and equally good for adults or children. The “ Discovery” cures all Skin, Scalp and Scrofulous affections, as Eczema, Tet ter, Salt-rheum, Fever-sores, White Swellings, Hip-joint disease and kindred ail ments.
