Series of Games Scheduled With

lock.
The advance guard of the Washington
Nati nal league and American Association
0 ( Base Ball clubs arrived in Savannah
vesterday morning by the Baltimore
steamer Decatur H. Miller, and are at tbe
Pulasm house. Manager W. Sarnie heads
the list, with Secretary W. R. Wagner,
Catchers J. Milligan and J. Maguire, Pitch
ers M. Kilroy, F. Foreman and George
Shock, F. Radford, G. A. Wood, C. E.
Duffee and W. E. Hoy. Pitchers H. Gast
ngbt, J. Dolan and Henry Larkins will ar
rive to-day and Hardy Richardson and Tom
Dowd will be here Monday.
The trip down was very rough and all the
men were seasick. They took in the city
yesterday and to-day will go into active
practice twice a day at the Bolton street
grounds. The team is made up of men of
splendid physical development, and although
they have Dover played together. Manager
Bamie is satisfied that when the season
opens he will have as tine a team in Wash
ington as any city in the league.
TO STAY TWO WEEKS.
The Washingtons will remain here about
fifteen days, during which time they will
?lay three games with the C. L. A. club,
he first game will take place Tuesday.
The C. L. A. team will not be picked until
Modusv. Manager Morrissey will put np a
strong team and the Washingtons will have
to play good ball. The library has
some fine base ball material in its member
ship, snd the best of it will be brought out
for the games with the visitors.
Manager Baruie is endeavoring to get the
Philadelphia*, who are at Gainesville, Ga.,
to come to Savannah and gave a game or
two. He thinks his efforts will be success
ful and about March 20 Savaunahiaus may
have an opportunity of witnessing good
professional ball playing. The Brooklyn
club, which is at Ocala, may also come here
for a series of games with the Washingtons.
After leaving Savannah Manager Bamie
will take his club to Maoou and Atlanta for
a few days, and thence back to Washing
ton, where the season begins April 12 with
the Bostons.
THE BEASON’B OUTLOOK.
The assignment of players by the league
has resulted in getting nearly every city
evenly matched and the best all-around ball
playing ever seen in America will he that
of tbe coming season. Manager Barnie is
an old hall player, having success
fully managed the Baltimore club for
many years. He is satisfied that
the team w hich represents Washington this
year will relieve the Capital City from the
reputation it has home for so long a time as
tbe tail.end of the league. His team played
u follows last year: Dolan, Foreman and
Maguire with Washington, Larkins, Wood
and Milligan with tne Philadelphia Ath
letics, Duffee and Dolan with Columbus,
Riobardson and Radford with Boston, Hoy
with 8L Louis, Shook with Milwaukee and
Kilroy with Cincinnati.
Kilroy is well known in Savannah. He
was a member of tbe old southern league
and made his fame as a pitcher with the
Augusta olub. Duffee is also an ex-soutbern
league player having been a member of the
New Orleans olub.
THE I.BAOUE PLAN.
The consolidation of the National League
snd American Association has resulted in a
league of twelve clubs with two seasons.
Boston, Brooklyn, New York, Philadel
phia, Baltimore and Washington represent
the east, and Chicago, St. Louis, LonlavlUe,
Cincinnati, Cleveland and Pittsburg tbe
west.
One hundred and fifty-fonr games ore
scheduled, seventy-seven at noma and
seventy-seven away. The first season opens
April 12 and closes July 5, theseoond season
commencing immediately after. The pen
nant championship is to be decided between
the winner of each season in a series of
games at their conclusion.
The season idea has been adopted. Manager
Baruie said, to keep up the interest and
give oaoti club a better chance for the cham
pionship. Heretofore it has often been the
case that a club has played poor ball at the
beginning of a season and recovered itself
afterward near the close, but being put
beyond tho reach of thepennuntthe merest
of the public in that particular club has
lagged. Under the new arrangement of
starting anew season all over again with
each club on an equal footing, the club
which plays poor ball at first may win in
the second season.
THE CONSOLIDATION SCHEME.
"The outlook for bane ball this year,”
Mid Manager Barnie, “is most encourag
ing. It will be one of the most successful
seasons ever known, I believe, since the
name came into vogue. By the consolida
tion of the National League and American
Association all the bickerings and jealousies
which have heretofore tended to keep the
game down have been removed and all in
terests aro common. The scheme of the
assigning the players to each club is
also a splendid idea and gives each oity an
equal show in securing good material to
represent it. It is no longer a question of
the highest bidder, apd this is something
which is hound to elevate the game.”
"How about Danny Richardson's refusal
to play with the Waßhingtous?”
"Well, he won’t play with any other
e™," Manager Barnie replied. “He has
i n assigned to us and we don’t intend to
release him. Richardson is a partner in a
Ory goods establishment in Elmira, N. Y.,
“a Bays he doesn’t intend to play ball any
Owe, but I believe he will change his mind
*“* r he finds out Washington will
release him to New York, and will
wentuallA come to us. Under the new
Jrrangement of affairs Washington can
•old Richardson for years.”
In speaking of base ball in the south
“eriager Barnie said he thought the sport
f' !J ld be revived if a league with a salary
unit of SBOO were organized. There are
Penty of rising young players who would be
. to get a chance at a small salary with
•southern league. .

THE SITUATION IN SANTOS.
The Condition of Affairs There on Ac
count of the Epidem'c.
A member of ths Citizens’ Sanitary Asso
ciation of Savannah, in Enrope, evinces his
intersst In Savannah's sanitation. Mr. H.
Jansen, a member of the association of this
city, has sent Inspector Desvergers the fol
lowing article from the Liverpool Journal
of Commerce of Feb. 25:
“No apology is required for publishing
the following leading article from tbe Rio
New, of Jan. 26:
“Tbe epidemic of tever in Santos has at last
reached so acute a stage that several lines of
steamers nave stopped receiving cargo for that
port, and some ot the moat influential foreign
houses of the city are closing their doors. In
some cases there it really no one left to carry
on business, the well b mg obliged to devote
their attention to ths sick. The situation is
desperate to an extreme, and the only recourse,
so far as we can ae, is to be found in the com
plete closing of tbe port to foreign commerce
It was loog ago almost a foregone conclus on
that this would be the result, and now, when
its realization is at hand, the local authorities
of Santos and She state authorities of Sao
Paulo, must admit the conclusion t at they
have only themselves to blame for the disaster
Months ago we called attention to the situatl m,
and to the dangers which were threatening
them.
“The enormous accumulation of merchandise
in that port, the blocking of the streets end
railway, the lack of faedities for uni adinc and
storing merchandise, the apathy and lndiffer
ence of officials and every one else connected
with the service of discharging, storing and
transporting merchandise—all this could have
but one end. An extraordinary accumulation
of vessels followed, and in the midst of all these
a port improvements contractor went on dredg
ing up the accumulated filth of years from the
river bottom to deposit it along the banks. In
the best and coolest of seasons this wou.d have
resulted in sickness In the shipping, but when
we add to this the intense heat of a summer in
Santos, it must be s< ea that yellow fever was
inevitable. And still, up to this moment, we
have yet to hear of a single order, either from
the sanitary authorities or from those of the
city or state, against this terrible blunder.
“With a fever epidemic staring them in the
face, the authorities of Santos lacked even the
common sense 10 order a suspension of a work
which was continually bringing up the poison
ous deposits of the river bottom, from which
fever contagion was spread broadcast among
the shipping. Such a people, to say the least,
are totally unfit for the responsible positions
which they hold. If strict justice could be
meted out iu this world they would bo held re
sponsible in no small measure for the terrible
loss of life whioh is resulting from their incom
petence and negligence. The calamity, how
ever, has arrived, and it only remaius to limit
the consequences within the narrowest bounds.
To that end all foreign steamship companies
should immediately suspend calliug at Santos,
for tho impossibility ot discharging cargo s
quickly renders all such calls most dangerous,
and every foreign house which can do so should
close its doors. Let tho government then do
what It will. If it cannot bring Itself to the
point of constructing temporary piers, enlarg
ing and Improving the custom house, increas
ing facilities for transporting merchandise to
tne interior, and of thoroughly cleansing and
draining the city, then let the port ot Santos be
abandoned.
“There is no use in wasting human life in
suoh a place. The port of Bant os, or some
other port, is anecesslty for the state of Sao
Paulo; the people of that state must therefore
see to it that it is made inhabitable What we
have said In respect to the port of Santos is in
great measure true also of Kio de Janeiro. The
same apathy and incompetence are to be found
here whioh nave brought about so much trouble
down there.
"Tbe port and custom hOHSeare crowded, the
Central railway Is continually blocked, and the
oity was never dirtier Bince the days when the
streets were made the common receptacle for
every species of filth. And to this a much
dimmisfisd supply of water—now happily aug
mented by welcome rains—and we have a situa
tion full or danger to the health of the city.
Tnat these conditions have been producing their
Datura! results during the recent hot weather
may be seen in the rapidly increasing death rate
from yellow fever. We have now reached a
death rate of over thirty a day, which may be
considered an epidemic rate. This number.it
should be noted, does not include the cases
from the shipping, which are sent over to
Jurujubs, and do not enter into tbe mortality
reports of the city. The shipping ie beginning
to suffer severely, and unless something is done
at onoe, Rio may soon find herself in a position
little better than that of Santos.”
Dr. L. Ayer Dead.
Ooaia, Fla., March 11.—Dr. L. Ayer
of Lake Wsfr died yesterday afternoon.
He was a prominent man in this county,
having served on tbe board of education,
and at tbe time of his death on the board of
county commissioners. He was about 45
years of age and a widower. He leaves five
children.
AN ANTIQUE EMBLEM.
The Congressional Mace, Which Is
Used to Restore Order.
Washington Letter to Philadelphia Telegraph.
It is not often that the mace has to be
used in the House, but already this session
it has been necessary to call upon the ser
geant-at-arms to hold up this dreadful em
blem of authority In order to oompel sub
mission of obdurate members. No matter
how excited a member may beoome, how
violent his passion, or how greatly disor
dered, he would have to have more courage
than congressmen usually have to resist
this little silver eagle perched solemnly on
an artistically carved log of wood. The
fear of bodily harm from some colleague
whom be ihight provoke beyond
season, respect for the authority of the
speaker, and regard for public opinion or
publio decency might be entirely loet to a
member, and yot so strong is the feeling of
respect for the emblem that it would seud a
thrill of hirror if any member should fail
to observe and acknowledge the power of
the maoe. When Mr. Pickier became un
ruly in his eloquence a few days ago, bis
loudest harangue was out in the middle of a
santenoe when he saw the spreading wings
of this bird that was advancing toward
him so pompously in the bands of the
sergeant-at-arms. This dread emblem,
during the sessions of the House, stands
unobtrusively on a little pedestal beside the
speaker’s desk, and its very exist
ence is not thought of until it sud
denly comes to rise and it is swooped
down upon the offending member, bringing
a blush to bis oheek, silence to bis tongue,
and subdues him to a quiet and sometimes
abjeot attitude in his seat. It is marvelous
in what respect the members hold this dread
emblem, aud with what a feeling of power
the sergeant-at-arms bears it along. The
fetich worshipers show no more raspeot for
their home-made gods. When the sergeant
at anus is ordered to produce the mace to
preserve order he holds it in both hands di
rectly in front of him, and with solemn
tread marones up to the member who is to
be put in subjection.
It is seldom that be reaches the member
In time to say what he has on hiR tongue,
but when be does be holds the mace so that
the beak of the silver eagle comet close
under the nrse of the member, and in
Boleinn tones he calls upon him to observe
the emblem of authority and commands
his obedience to preserve order In
dread of the penalty. Should a member
disregard this solemn warning tho sergeant
at-arms would return to the space lu front
of the speaker’s desk and call the atten
tion of the speaker to the faot that the
mace bad been insulted. Thereupon the
member would be called to the bar of the
House. If he at onoe yielded, he might re
ceive nothing more than a severe censure, a
reprimand, to be recorded iu the journal of
the House; but should he persist in showing
disresneet for the mace, he would be heavliy
fined,' and might be expelled from the
House. There is hardly an aot for which
punishment would come more severelv and
more surely than studied disrespect of this
emblem of authority.
A French Case of "Beautiful Snow."
From the London Telegraph.
A curious inoident enlivened the perform
ance at the Coloane afternoon performance
at the Chatelet on Sunday. No sooner had
the orchestra struck uo the first bars of a
symphony by Mile. Augusta Holmes, en
titled "An Beys Bleu," tbau a lady In the
upper boxee deluged the lower parta of the
house with a shower of handbills, which on
perusal by the astonished audience was
found to contain a Cha.geof plagiarism.
The iedv at tin handbills was taken charge

THEIR MAERIAGE A LOITERY.
A Nebraska Widow and a Wyoming
Ranchman Join Hearts Sigh*. Unseen.
Lincoln Letter to Omaha World-He raid.
Mrs. Mary M. Stevens of Linooln was
married the first of the week at Grand
Island to Nelson Wetaon of Cheyenae. The
marriage was the outcome of a strange
correspondence A friend of Mrs. Stevens
is in the employ of Nelson in Cheyenne, and
suggested to him one evening that he knew
of a woman who would make him an excel
lent wife. Nelson agreed if the fair creature
should prove acceptable and could be
won to marry her. He immediately wrote
to Mrs. Stevens, setting forth that he was
the owner of a large and paying ranch, was
well off in the world and wanted someone
to share his lot and help eat bis potatoes.
The lady was not averse to embarking in
the matrimonial sea for a second time, and
agreed that If everything was as repre
sented and the man was of a go.d moral
character she would asseut.
She was fully satisfied on these points and
they immediately considered themselves en
gaged. Business interests prevented Nel
son leaving home long enough to come to
Linooln and he did not wish to he eo ungal
lant as to oompel his betrothed to go to him,
so they compromised and agreed to meet at
Grand Island. Monday Mrs. St 'Vens left
for Grand Island, where the couple met for
the first time. Both considered that they
had socured a bargain and were made one
at once. Yesterday a letter was received
in thie city from the happy bride, in wbioh
she aays that he is just glorious and too
sweet for anything.
"Labby” Upsets the British Tub.
Prom the London Truth.
lam glad that the National Observer,
although au ardent advocate of the main
tenance of all institutions of former times,
makes an exception in regard to the cold
morning tub. When I was a boy very few
persons ever thought of either warm or cold
tubs. The tub came into fashion somewhere
about the year 1850 aud replaced the “onoe
a-week” footpan. lat onoe bowed to the
fetish, had my cold tub every morning, and
tried to imagine that I liked it and that it
was bracing me. One dey I went to con
sult an eminent physician. I forget pre
cisely what malady I thought affected me.
It was either disease of the heart or a cancer
iu the stomach or creeping paralysis.
The doctor, having banged me about and
listened to what was going on inside, reas
sured me. “Do you take a cold bath in the
mormrigi” be asked. “Yes,” I replied.
“Don't” he answered—“take a hot bath,
stay in it a few minutes, soap yourself
well; then stand up aud let a o dd douche of
water fall on your head." I followed this
subscription, and I found the benefit of it.
It oust me 2 guineas, but I make a present
of it to tbe readers of Truth. The douobe
really does brace, and Iba body is so hot
that the water does not eeern oold. Of all
the follies into which the human race has
fallen, there la none more silly than the
worship of tbe cold tub.
PLAYLNG POKER.
HOW A BUSINESS MAN WAS OUREO
OF HIS INFATUATION.
A Most Remarkable Bluff A Big
Winning on a Straight Flush Which
He Thought He Had, but Hadn’t.
Betting With Money Taken From
Fnnca Intrusted to His Cara
JVom the Washington Star.
“I was cured of playing poker by an Inci
dent tbe like of which I have never heard
ot,” said a business man to a Star writer.
“It was just about eighteen years ago. I
was passionately addicted to the game at
that period, spending all my spare time, and
more too, la pursuing its varying chances.
The vioe gets a wonderful hold upon a man,
so that I have known more than one good
fallow who became so devoted to it as to be
unable to get enjoyment out of anything
else. Business and all other employments
were neglected for the fascinating occupa
tion of sitting behind five cards,
“That is pretty much the way it was
with me. I was employed in a commercial
establishment, occupying a position of s me
responsibility, but during the day my mind
was constantly taking flight from my work
and I always felt a feverish longing for the
hour. 8 o'clock iu the evening, wbeu play
regularly began iu a club to which I be
longed. The organization, though nomi
nally for social purposes, had no other ob
ject than poker, though the members of it
were men of excellent social standing.
Many of theta had large means But I have
never known a poker-playing club which
was not broken up sooner or later by dis
putes of a serious nature. Tbe one l' speak
of was no exception to the rule, and from
first to last there were not less than half a
dozen fellows in it whobeeamedemoralized
by the gambling fever and procured money
to gratify tho morbid taste by illegitimate
meat s, tho Inevitable result being exposure
and ruin.
A REMARKABLE OCCURRENCE.
“I don’t know what my own fate might
have been but for the remarkable occur
rence which I am about to relate to you.
My salary was all I hud to live upon, and I
was not over careful iu mv expenditures
generally, being a single man. My Impres
sion is that I played rather more skillfu ly
than the average of my opponents. The
only reason I have for thinking so is that X
won pretty constantly. I have rarely met a
poker player who did not imagine that he
was rather expert at the game, so that I hes
itate to claim any superiority for myself in
that regard. However, I was so far success
ful that I came to oount upon my winnings
as a reasonably sure source of money sup
ply. This wont on for neurlv two years,
but finally I struck a very bad streak of
luck and lost largely. I gave several notes
of hand for cosu due and got myself so
snarled up in various ways financially that
1 could not see my nay out of trouble at
all.
“In this situation I found myself very un
happy, of course. Naturally, I sought dis
tractiou at tho poker table. It was astonish
ing how my unlucky streak continued. The
only superstition which I indulge, so far as
lam aware, relates to the apparent tend
ency of fortune to run in streaks. If you
have ever gambled you must have observed
h ;w, if you ure winning, everything runs
your wav, and otherwise contrariwise. At
all events, I continued to lose and found
myself at length in so desperate a pligut
that goodness only knows what might have
happened in the end. You will remember
that, as I have told yoa, I occupied a position
of trust. Large funds in cash belonging to
others were placed in my bauds.
TOOK FUNDS NOT BELONGING TO HIM.
“Did I say that it was doubtful what
might have happened? That was not put
ting it truly. But for an accident my fate
would have been only too certain. In a
moment of desperation I took a large sum
from tbe funds in my charge, with the in
tention of using it for play. My situation
was so liad that, as I reasoned to myself, 1
could not refrain from throwing everything
upon a single cast. At that time the play
at tho clu[> t speak of had risen very high.
We had begun with a modest limit, estab
lished by a regulation, but it is the experi
ence of every one that has played poker that
the stakes are subject to an almost inevita
ble law of increase. The loser demands this
opportunity iu order that he may recover
his losses, and the wlnuer can hunlly refuse,
being confident besides that his good
fortune will oontioue.
“So it happened that the came in which I
bad been accustomed to play, where two or
three tables were occupied nightly, had
been shorn of its limit outirely. It was evi
dent that maay of the members were gamb
ling altogether beyond their means, but
they would have taken it as an insult it the
winners bad suggested such an idea to them.
Iu the long run, when a certain ccterie of
men play poker with each other, nearly all
of them lose', while perhaps only two or
three win the monty. There were throe
players in the club 1 belonged to who were
believed to have scooped in the greater part
of tho wealth. One of thorn was a highly re
spectable merchant, while tbe other two
were persons of nominally good repute who
toiled not st other occupations e ive poker.
My belief bad even then come to be that
they dopended chiefly for a livelihood upon
their luccets in the game.
LOST FROM THK START.
“On the night I speak of, when I had
taken for purposes of play the money wbioh
vras not my own, I encouutered at the same
table those thrae men. There were two
other players, both of indifferent quality,
besides. As usual, I began losing from the
very start aud continued to do so right
along. This made me reckless and thus tbe
game rose very high. As I subsequently
ascertained, the two men of whom I have
particularly spoken were cheats. They
played into each other's hands, and ore of
them, at all events, understood tbe difficult
art of putting up the cards in whatever
fashion he desired. They were both ex
pelled frorrij the club three month* later.
There is tbe best possible reason for believ
ing that at a certain period, when a big jack
pot was in dispute, something wrong was
done in the shuffle. Auyway.oneof these
fellows got four aces and the other drew a
fourth king. Of course, I did not know
that until afterward.
“I bad four of a straight flush to start
with. It was a small one—only deuce,
tray, four spot and six spot of spades—but
it afforded great possibilities. I drew for
it in tbe middle, and when I glanced at the
oard drawn my heart gave a bound, Tbe
not had been opened aud raised twice, while
I had simply stayed in. After the draw the
betting became tremendous. Three of iny
opponents dropped out, leaving only myself
and the two mou I have spoken of. Each of
us raised the others until, there being no
limit en tbe game, there was $9,000 in tbe
pot—not ia promises to pay, mind you, but
in actual gold and notes. At length tbe
fellow who had tbe four kings, as subse
quently appeared, dropped out, presumably
because he knew that his partner held four
aoes.
A MOST ASTONISHING BL.DFF.
* ‘He and I raised each other twice more,
S3OO at a chip. You can imagine how ex
cited I was, playing as I was with money
that belonged to other jieople. Tbe stakes
from my point of view were a small fort
une on the one hand and the penitentiary on
the other. I was almost crazy for the mo
ment and that was tb reason why when
my adversary suddenly laid his cards face
downward on tbe table I supposed that be
bad thrown up his baud. At onoe I snouted
‘I have a straight flush 1’
"My oppoaeut’s face blanched. Without
seeing my last raise be threw hi* hand with
au oath into the middie of tbe peck and
rose to bis feet. I raked In tbe gold and
bank notes eagerly and exultantly dis
played my cords upon the table. There
was a general roar of astonishment, I had
not a straight flesh at alt. My hand was
•i aejy /two, three, four, *<* end seven of
spades. 1 cau only account for the mistake
I had made by the extraordinary condition
of mind in which 1 -as.
“So, without any intention to that effect,
I bad executed a moat astonishing bluff,
driving out from a pot worth nearly $lO,-
OJO two opponents, eech of whom held four
of a kind. I gathered in my winnings, snd
left tbe club house. From that day to this
I have never played a card, and nothing
o uld poesibly tempt me to do so again.
That lam rated an honest man to-day I
feel that I owe to the barest chance that
ever mortal found salvation in.”
ONE BOW AND TWO STERNS.
A Steel Vessel to Be Built on an En
tirely New Flan.
From the .Vein York Commercial Advertiser.
DUBUQUE, la., March & —The lowa Iron
works of this oity have undertaken to build
a boat on an entirely new plan, tbe object
of whioh is to navigate the river and tbe
ocean. It is to be built after the style of
what is called tbe Lucas plan, and will be
the first boat of tbe kind built.
It will have one bow and two sterns, each
of which will have a rudder and screw, so
if ore is disabled there will remain halt the
power to make port.
She will carry an adjustable centerboard,
which, it is thought, will auswer the pur
pose of a deeper draught.
The boat will be about 300 feet long and
from 30 to 35 feet beam. She will tw built
entirely of steel and will cost about *200,000,
and it is expected that she will carry a
cargo in weight equal ling about 60,000 bush
els of wheat on five feet of water, which
will be remarkable if suoh results are se
cured.
The vessel, when finished, will be sent
with a cargo to the Amazon. She will then
go up the river 500 miles or more to the cof
fee plantations, and take from them direct
the products whioh now have to be trans
ferred a half dozen times before reaching a
market. The leaders of the enterprise
claim that wherever a market is to be
reached In shallow water the Lucas ship
will act as a long felt want. It is entirely
an experiment, oue that will be watched
with great interest, as it will open up anew
era in ocean aud river navigation.

A ~ by , a . flAAek iital,
ments that are marie by the proprietors
of Doctor Sage’s Catarrn Remedy. They
say that their medicine will cure, jier
fectlv and permanently, the worst caso
of Chronic Catarrh in tho Head, all tho
troubles that come from it, and everything
catarrhal in its nature, are cured by tho
mild, styothing, demising and healing

They can't say any more. Froliably
every medicine for Catarrh claims as
much. Hut it’s one thing to promise, a
