WAS IT A CASE OF SUICIDE THE BODY OF AN UNKNOWN WHITE MAN FOUND IN THE RIVER. Nothing On Hls Person By Which He Could Be Identified—He Was Neatly Dressed and Appeared to Be About 45 Years of Age—Supposed to Ee a Stranger Who Desired to Go to an Unmerited Grave. Friday night about dark the body of a white man was discovered floating In the river near Fort Jackson light. It was brought to the city and turned over to Coroner Dixon. There is a mystery connected with this drowning that may never be settled. No body appears to know anything about the man aud his identity it enveloped in an un oertalnty that will never be unraveled, probably, as his body has been buried. When found the body was pretty well pre served. The features were not mutilated and there were no marks to show that he had been the victim of foul play. In the absenoe of all definite knowledge about him it is presumed that he committed suicide, but when or where the act was oom- Kitted is unknown. The general appearance of the corpse in dicated that it had been in the water a day or two and though ooneiderxbly swollen, the features aud characteristics of the man's face were easily discernible. After being brought to the oity the body began rapidly to decompose and Coroner Dickson found it necessary to bury it at 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon. The interment was at Laurel Grove cemetery. The ooroner kept the body as long as was possible in hope that some light could be thrown on the case, but with tne most dili gent Investigation he failed to find any one who knew him or had ever seen him before. The drowned man had nothing in his pocket to show who he was. There was no note or anything else in his possession to give a olew to his iden tity. His clothes were in good oondition and indicate he was a man in ordinary cir cumstances. His coat aud vest were of plaid and his trousers were black. He was a man apparently about 40 or 45 years old, and had sandy hair, mustaohe and whiskers. He was about 6 feet 6 inches in bight. The ahsolute absence of everything that would throw any light as to who the man was or where he came from is pretty clear evidenoe that it was a case of premeditated suioide. He probably came from some other city or town and kept himself hid to that no one would tee him until the deed had been oommitted. As far as oould be learned no one had ever seen him in Savan nah. If the suioide theory is the correct one the unknown dead man certainly most siiooessfully carried out his plan' of en shrouding the whole thing in mystery. AN IMPERTINENT PRISONER. Ho Curses Out tbe JutJeo, tho Solicitor and Court Cfflclals. Beveral criminal oases wars trisd la tbs city court yesterday. The first was against William Smith, alias "One-eyed” Mongiu, a notorious negro gambler aud all round la*, breaker. Mongin was charged with at tempting to enter the house or Mary Adams on Indian street, being refused admission he drew a pistol and tnreatened to shoot her. Ha was arrested yesterday morning by Detective Humphries and Justice War iug Kussell turned him over to theoity court. While in court Mongin, who was under tbe influence of liquor, cursed the judge, tbe solicitor general and the oourt generally, using the most blasphemous oaths aud foulest epithets. Judge MacDoneil sentenoed him totwoyears in the chain-gang. John Brown and George West were both convicted of larceny and got six months each. Willie Williams and William Raiford, two negro boys, were sentenced to twelve months for stealing car brasses. There ap pears to be an organized gang of these thieves, and the railroads, especially the Central, have suffered the loss of hundreds of dollars by thieves stealing brasses. Policeman Tom Quinn, with the aeslstance of Detective Morgan, arrested another of the gang yesterday afternoon, and a deter mined effort will be in -de to break it up. TO HA VS A FAIR. One on a Grand Scale to Raise Funds for the Cathedral. A meeting was held in the office of the couDty commissioners last Thursday night, but it was not a political caucus, as has been stated. It was a meeting of gentlemen in terested for tho purpose of calling a meet ing of tho Catholic ladies of the city to as semble this afternoon after vespers in the basement of tbe cathedral to make arrange ments for a grand fair to raise money to complete the cathedral. The executive committee will receive In a few days draw ings and specifications in detail for the thorough completion of the edifice. It is the committee’s purpose to push the work through as rapidly as possible. TO TAKS CHARGE TO-DAY. The New Pastor of the Lutheran Church to Be Installed. To-day at 11 o’clock Rev. W. C.

"Falk’s prices are as attractive as their goods.”— ad. THE DECEMBER TERM. A Big Criminal Docket For the Su perior Court. The December term of the superior court will convene to-morrow morning at lu o’clock. It is likely that no business will be transacted, as the court is expected to ad journ out of respect to the memory of the late Judge Adams. The committee of the bur appointed to prepare a memorial will preeent its report, and after remarks by different lawyers the court will adjourn. It is expected that every member of the bar will oe present. The grand jury will meet Tuesday and pa-s upon matt rs brought to its attention. The court is confronted by a heavy crim inal docker. There are four cases of mur der to be tried. They are Fred Gibbons, Isaac Tyson, John Harris and Jake Wald burg. The cases of Tyson and Waldburg possess considerable interest. Tyson killed two negroes named William Williams and William Green with a shotgun one Monday about six months ago at the Electric Railway Company's works. Since the killing Tyson has been known as the double murderer. The case of Jake Waldourg is familiar to the publio. Sever , 1 weekß ago he killed Celia Coleman at a negro dance at Sandfly. The jury Impaneled by the coroner, which was composed of negroes, returned a ver dict of accidental shooting, but the testi mony showed that Waidburg was shooting at negroes on the outside and meant to kill somebody. Solicitor General Fraser there fore deoilied to p osoeute him for murder. The other casus to be tried are as follows: Jeetive Wayue, Jobu Reilly, Peter Robin son, William Roach, Jim Burke, Bartow Wiggins. John Cooperj James Bacon, George Hunt, Charles Knight, Joe Brad well, Crawford Goddison, Addie Laßoche, George Irwin and James Hamilton, all charged with assault with iuteut to mur der; George Jackson, Henry Williams, John Walker, Joe Lewis, Henry Wilkinson, alias Walker; James Derringer, Jack Tay lor, Samuel Green, J. M. Glover, Willie Johnson, Edward Gibbons, I’eter Norman, Israel Galiishaw and Phillip Williams, bur glary; Andrew Demery, Sidney Lilieuthal, Frank Dasher aud Robert Nelson, forgery; J. C. Allen aud John Bennett, robbery; Jim Saussy and Alexander Benjamin, riot; James Malloy, felony; Antony Butler and William Lloyd, cattle stealing, and George Laugblin, larceny, la all there are forty eight cases. "MB. POTTBH OF TEXAS.’* Only One Show Before the Footlights This West, There will be only one attraction at the theater this week, “.Mr. Potter of Texas" Wednesday night. The play is a striking one, worthy of liberal patronage. The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette of Nov. 14 had the following notice of the play: ’ ‘The ’standing room’ sign was out at both perforuianoee at Heuok’s yesterday, and the merit of the performances given well de served suoh liberal patronage. ’Mr. Potter of Texas' was the play, and, presented as it was. by a most capable oompaay, certainly merited the best applause. But few nesd be told that the piece is a clever dramatiza tion of Mr. Archibald Gunter’s famous novel, ’Mr. Potter of Texas,’ and the knowledge is common to the many that its story is one of the moat interesting and one of the best, told in modern literature, its arrangement for the stage is extremely clever, and its acting wus quite as good as there oould be any reason to desire. Mr. Henry Weaver, Jr., in the title role, was admirable: while the ’Lady Sarah Anner ley’ of Miss Steila Boniface was as thor oughly a good piece of stage work as has been seen at lienck’s this season. ‘Mr. Sid ney Vao Oott,' as played by John E. Hynes, was also very clever, and the same may be said in praise of Mr. Basil West’s ’Charlie Errol’ and Mr. Hugh Gibson’s ‘Ralph Errol' and ‘Baron Linooln,' Mr. Harry Brinsley, Guy Nichols, Mr. P. J. Reynolds, Miss Cecil James, Miss Georgia Busby and the others of the company acquitted them' selves handsomely." CITY BREVITIES. Aoorn Lodge No. 103, I. O. O. F., will give its third annual ball at Odd Fellows’ nail Thursday night. Sol C. Johnson, editor of the Savannah Tribune, has been commissioned adjutant of the First battalion of Georgia Volunteers (oolored), vice A. K. Desverney, deceased. In the city court yesterday Frank Fisher Woollett, a subject of Great Britain, hav ing taken out me necessary papers, was formally made a full fledged American cit izen. Tbe mock banquet of the Young Men’s Christian Association, which will take place Tuesday night at tbe association’s rooms, will be an interesting affair. Tbe responses to tbe toasts will not commence until 9 o’clock. The members of Live Oak Lodge No. 3, I. O. O. F., gave an entertainment last Fri day night at George Schwarz’s dining rooms, which was participated in by the members and a number of invited guests. The menu was all that could be desired both In quality and quantity. Jack Shellington Prince, who holds the world’s records on the bicycle for all dis tances, from to 50 miles, and is also the world’s greatest long distance rider, will ride against three of Savannah's fastest trotting horses at Doyle’s driving para this afternoon. The Labor Union Recorder, the organ of the colored people of this section of tho state, is not much more than 1 year old, but has made commendable progress. It has been enlarged from a 24 to a2B column pa per. The management will issue next Sat urday a56 column edition as a trade issue. W. R. Le iken, Esq. .returned from Thomas ville yesterday where be went to represent Chisholm & Cos. of Savannah in tbe case of the Millburu Wagon Company against R. G. Wllbyof Adel, and Chisholm & Cos. The case was postponed to Jan. 30 on a count of the plaintiffs not being ready for trial. The amount involved in the case is $45,000. There was a lively runaway on Broughton street yesterday which came near resulting seriously. A horse belonging to George Anderson attached to a street wagon, rau down Broughton street and turned into Drayton, narrowly missing a carriage and buggy containing two little boys. The Buggy horse became frightened also and started to run away, but was stopped by two gentlemen in time to prevent what would probably have proved a very serious accident. The wagon horse corftinued down Drayton street until he collided with an iron post, wrecking tbe vehicle and throwing himself to tbe ground. Someone remarked that the devil Is among tbe clothiers, because so much cut ting of the outting in prices. Every mer chant has all he can do to tend to his own business. "The Famous" Clothing House finds (notwithstanding tbe benvy sales) too muoh goods on hand; to move them we cut prices, and the profits go ’up in smoke. The goods on hand don’t appreciate if cot ton did go up, and we think it decidly bet ter to sell even without any profit rather than let them lay. "The Famous" thinks that the best, and we act accord ingly; cut prices and give our customers the benefit. Others may think otherwiio and bug their goods. This would be a poor world if we were all of ouemind.The wisdom of "The Famous" Clothing House’s action in cutting prices was shown in the greatly increased sales last week of suits, overcoats, trousers and boys’ clothing; furnishing goods too, we sold piles of it, giving in that lino 10 per ce il, discount for oast.

William TANARUS, Snider, eon of George Snider, an apprentice to E. C. Paoetti, tinner, of Savannah, orought home a specimen of his handiwork last week in the shape of a weather vane, about three feet in length. Besides the point of the compass there are two revolving balls, one turning to the right aud the other to the left when the wind blows. The vane is intended for his father’s house. The entire work was done during his leisure moments and dinner hours. Tuesday, Deo. 22, Phosnix oastle, K. G. E., will give an entertainment for the bene fit of their paraphernalia fund at Patter son’s hall. The feature of the affair will be the awarding of two prizes to the most popular young misser. There are four in the race and it is diifieulc to tell wno will come out ahead, as all are well known and popular. They are Misses Marie Harper, Marie Pattersm, Ada Newton and May Davis. Last week the Mousing News Pooler cor respondent recoived from Photographer William E. Wilson of bavannah a photo graph of a prominent Poolerite who was taking in the city last week. From the ex pression of his faoe one would think that he was mourning about the poor shooting he did In the turkey contest on Thanksgiving day. The picture was a snap shot und is a good one. Last week a conversation was had with Maj. Blandford, the county engineer, in reference to the drainage of Pooler. He cheerfully gave all information desired. On account of the foroeof couviots diminish ing, by reason of terms expiring, the “flying dragoons” have not been able to reach Pooler,as Maj. Blandford ooDtemplated. He, however, has been over the town, made hie measurements and knows just wnat is needed most in the way of drains. With the aid of the large county map all the pro posed drains were shown, and there is no doubt but when they are completed Pooler itos will be made happy as far as the drain age of their town is concerned. Readers of the Morning News liviog in the county outside of .Savannah have been surpiised at the manner in w hich the po litical slatemakers of Savannah have gob bled ud the couuty commissioners’ offices. Out of about fifteen names suggested for the positions, there is not a single man mentioned living outside of Sa vannah. As the candidates are to represent the county, It seems that the oity ought to be satisfied with four und give the “crackers” one. There is no excuse about not having mater al, as Mon teith. Thunderbolt, White Bluff, Montgom ery, Pooler, etc., oould surely scrub up one man who could represent us. If a combi nation could be made with the First district and Tammany clubs of Savannah, there is no doubt that a countryman oould slip in. All that is needed is to get a man to agitate the move and we would wiu. There is a mask ball on tapis to be given by the young ladies and gentlemen of Pooler. It will take plaos during Xmas week. The Pooler Rifle Club will hold Its regu lar monthly meeting next Thursday night at the home of Vice President J. R. Wilh ington. A pleasant time is anticipated. The many friends of Uncle Mike Jordan will regret to learn that he bas been dis charged from the Tybee division of the Central. Uncle Mike has been with tbe road many years, and there is no one living along the line bat will regret to know that he is no longer with tbe road. It was said at the time that be was removed from tho Shoofly that it wae only a move to get rid of him, and the predlctioa. it seems, bas turned out true. The Chatham Rifle Clnß will hold Its regular meeting Thursday next at the bouse of Treasurer J. H. Adams, and as a light collation will be given the boys a large at tendance is looked for. During the pnst couple of months several parties in Pooler have missed their cattle and no one seemed to know of their where abouts until last week, when tbe mystery was solved. It now transpires that they were shot by negroes living near the Ogee chee canal. One gentleman has proof that one of bis oows was shot, as eight buck shot holes were found in her side. He would nover have found out what became of her bad it not been for the bell and strap on her neck. A white man, knowing the bell, took it off of tbe cow and gave it to tbe owner. Circumstantial evidence was o strong against Robert Houston being the paTy who did tbe killing that a warrant was issued and Houston put in jail. He gave bond and bas been released. A good joke is told on Jim Moore tbe .popular engineer of the Shoofly. Friday morning his regular engine, No. 129, was put in the shop for repairs and his overalls were locked up in his box. When he went to the shed to take the dinner train out he found to his surprise that engine No. 1586 was attached to his train. Not having time to go ti the round house for his overalls he made the run to Guyton in his store-bought clothes, and that is what caused the trouble. Employes living along the Hue seeing tbe dinner train run by a man with a white shirt and tie on, and his head covered by a fine derby hat, began to wonder what was up. They had never seen Jim pull out in that shape before and they could not understand It. Some thought a strike had been de clared, and that a scab was running the engine, but upon close examination they found to their surprise that it was tbe only and original Jim. Some of the engineers hearing of it, enjoyed a big laugh at his expense. H. H. Sellers of Savannah was proßpeot ing in Fooler last week and will probably be a Poolerite soon. He was very much pleased with the growing town. .1 an. 7 the voters of the Eighth district will be called upon to vote for a magistrate and constable, and it behooves each and every one to make it bis busluess to vote that dny. A move bas been made, which if not met by a strong array of vote., will put n nerro in the office now occupied by Judge Bevans. Every voter should register and cast his vote before the polls are closed. The hours will bo from 7 o’clock a. m. to 6 o’clock p. m. and the election will be held in Pooler. Judge Bevans has consented to be a candidate for re-election. A deal has been consummated which will be a big improvement to Gill town. Mr. Sol Sheftail haa (rot control of the Gill property at the crossing and will soon commence the erection of some neat dwelling houses. The GUIs will move away. Mr. Sheftall will demolish the log houses that are now oa the track. It was not learned what the con sideration was in the deal. With convenient accommodation from the Central this place would soon build up and furnish a large number of patrons for the road. ( ards nre out for the wedding of W. A.

Piolerwas made a day and night tele graph station lost Frida}’, and Operator William Clark is now iu charge of the office during the night. Being one of the largest stations on the main line u has often been wondered why it was not made a permanent day and night office. Residents of Pooler earnestly hope that no trouble will come about iu regard to General Superintendent Wadlev refusing to sign the labor contracts. Poolerites have to submit to a great deal of inconvenience now, but if a strike is called there is no tell ing what they would have to do in regard to getting to and from Savannah. LOCAL. PESfIO.SAb.

Why the Game Did Not Prosper in the South in the Past. A Morning News reporter on his rounds yesterday, found Mr. D. A. Long and sev eral baseball enthusiasts looking over a noat map that shows the location of the different cities in the Southern I<eague for the coming season and the mileage between these citiea The map idea is interesting, ns it easily furnishes a means of quickly arriving at the cost of maintaining a elub on the road. In former years the Southern League uovered almost the same geueral territory, but contained a fewer number of cities to break the long jumps. Therefore, the ex pense of traveling then was much greate than at present. Again, there were many off days In a season caused by these long jumps, whereas in the oonsiug year not a single day will be lost. In 1888, taking Birmingham, for example, the club would leave home to play a seriee of four games ta New Orleans From that point it jumped to Charleston, a distance of 824 miles. The club was composed of fourteen men, and the mileage for the team would represent 11,536 miles for one person, and a 2cents rate per mile amounted to S2BB 40, adding to this sleepers at S2B, and four meals for the entire team at $42, and the total foots up $358 40 for traveling ex penses alone in making one jump. The club lost one day in making this jump. Supposing the attendance at this game dost) would have been 2,000 at 25 cents, the receipts would amount to SSOO, one-half of wLioh would have gone to the visitlug team. This $250 lost by not being able to play, added to the traveling expense, brought the expenses of one jump up to S6OB 40. locludiug the cost of the team during the four days it remained at Charleston for board bills and carnages, the sum total for a single trip amounted to $704 40 outside of salaries, balls, bats, etc. The club will carry only eleven men and get a 2-cent rate on the railroads. For eleven m-n at 2 cents per mile for 348 miles the oost will be $76 56, sleepers sl2 and one meal $5 50, amounting altogether to SO4 06. Next season the olubs will play three-game series in each city, end the expense of keep ing a team for that tlina will amount to but $49 50. The hotel rates will be $l5O per day and the clubs will go to the grounds in street cars free. No games will be lost on account of long jumps. There fore, it can be readily seen why baso ball in the south was unsuccessful up to the past season. The difference in the cost of running a team in the south in 1885, 1886 or 1888 and the present will be $764 40 against $143 50 for one trip. The expense has been cut down to less than one-fifth, and during this time the south has been growing to a great extent and the people have become better posted in regard to the national game, whloh reasonably guaran tees larger aud better attendance. In other words, the expense of ruoolng base ball has been greatly decreased .while the income from the larger attendance has been greatly increased. The Bavannan club will play 06 games at home and 66 abroad. Supposing eaoh game averages 1,000 people, or 132,008 in all, and each dub gets .50 per cent, of the gate re ceipts, or 12>s cents for eaoh person, lliW times 132,000 will foot np $16,500. During the time the club is|playing at home at least one-half of the attendance will occupy seats lu the grand stand. This means 33,000 peo ple in the grand stand and $8,250in receipts. With proper managuinent SSO per game can be taken in from privileges and ad vertising on the grounds. This will amount to $3,300. Tbs total then will tie $26,650 or more than double what will be required to ran a team bare. Nothing has been decided yet In regard to locating the park, ae the street oar com panies are nil trying to get it on their own tinea The matter will be settled, however, this week. Manager Manning la already correspond ing with many of the best ball players In the eouutry, and will gather together for Sa vannah the strongest club that has ever represented a southern city. Up to the present time Mr. Long has made nn effort to place anv of the stock on aooount of being busy arranging for park and other matters, but he will begin doing so at once. Augusta and Charleston have already issued over 100 season tickets, which goes a great ways to assure the suooesH of base ball in both places. Savannah cannot afford to be behind her neighbors in this respect. Every base ball lover and the peopl# gen erally will no doubt do their part in making -Savannah one of the best ball towns in the south and help set the paoe for the others to follow-. Savannah it assured of an excellent club and the people ought to do the right thing by it and give the game the support it deserves. Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Pittsburg and other National League olubs have written for dates with Savannah’s team in the spring, and some good ball playing wiil bo seen here before the regular season opens. A LYCEUM FOR SAVANNAH. A Movement to Give the Citizens a Higher Class of Entertainments. There is a movement on foot to organize in Savannah a branch of the Southern Ly ceum circuit, which is composed of the cit ies of Atlanta, Macon, Augusta, Rome, Co lumbus, Savannah and Charleston. At pres ent Augusta is the only city which has one in active operation, and it has proved such au interesting feature of their entertainments that it Is very probable that one will be or ganized in each of the above named cities this month. The object of the lyceum is to arrange for a course of entertainments on a higher order than those now In vogue, and by having a lyceum in each of the above named cities the officers can get tbe best tal ent at a most reasonable cost. The Augusta lyceum now has nearly 300 members, and, although it has only been organized a little over a month, it has booked some of the finest concerts and lecturers in tbe country. It is the intention of those who are in charge of the organiza tion of the Savannah branch to get as many members as are interested and then call a meeting to eleot the regular officers, after which it will book the same attractions that Augusta now has, which inoludes Thomas Nelson Page, the New York Symphony Club and other fine attractioas. By this moans the entertainments can be secured at a very reasonable price. So far tbe gentlemen in charge have been very successful, and have secured the co-operation of some of the best citizens of the city, and it Is very probable that Savannah will soon have a lyceum as large as any in the state.
