TO ESTABLISH A NUEBKKT.
The King’s Daughters’ Work in Behalf
of Poor Little Ones.
There is a movement on foot to estab
lish a King's Daughters’ nursery in Sa
vannah. The object of such an institu
tion is to give a home to little children
that are too young to enter an orphan
asylum. It is to be strictly non-sectarian,
and will be the means of caring for a
great many poor children, who are now
dependent on others for their livelihood
and guidance. In many cases these little
ones are left in charge of totally disinter
ested parties, and necessarily their com
fort and life are of a secondary considera
tion.
The nursery will have a special depart
ment to take care of the children during
the day while the parents are at work.
A nominal fee will be charged to those
who can afford it and the poorer ones
will be taken care of free.
There are seventeen circles of the
King's Daughters in Savannah who are
directed in their work by Miss M. Reid,
secretary for Chatham county. The num
ber of King's Daughters in this city is
over 250, who are earnestly working to
relieve the sick and poor..
The proposed nursery has been defi
nitely decided upon and will no doubt re
ceive hearty and cordial support from
all, without regard" to creed. The bene
fits derived from a nursery of this kind
are manifold, the good done cannot be
conceived, and such noble and earnest
workers as tho King’s Daughters will be
readily assisted by many who know what
beneficial results arise from such a lauda
ble undertaking.
WANTED TO M&.KE XTP.
Two Motormen Battered Each Other
Up and Then Wanted to Settle It.
There is a prospect Of another assault
with intent to murder case reaching a
settlement. W. E. Mitchell swore out a
warrant yesterday against P. F. Bell on
that charge, and the case was to have
come up before the grand jury, but had to
be postponed.
Mitchell is an Klffctric railway motor
man and Bell is a Coast Line motorman.
Mitchell charged Bell with stealing a suit
of clothes from him last Tuesday and had
him arrested. There was no-case against
Bell, and he was discharged. Bell and
Mitchell board at the same place, near
Price and Gwinnett streets. Wednesday
afternoon Bel! went to tho house and
went into Mitchell s room, and a row was
soon in progress. Mitchell cut at Bell
with a knife and then with a razor. Bell
then knocked Mitchell down and pounded
him in the face with a pair of brass
mucks.
The result was Mitchell had Bell ar
rested on a charge of assault with intent
to murder, and the matter was to have
been taken up by tho grand jury yester
day afternoon, hut was crowded out bv
other business. While Mitchell and Beli
wpre waiting outside the grand jury room
to be called they got very "chummy,” so
to speak, and Mitchell seemed very much
inclined to drop the prosecution. They
had made up and were talking in a
friendly way, and both were asking
mound the court house if they could set
tle the case. If the state tries to press
tin prosecution the probability is that it

DANGER JUST AHEAD.
A Prominent Professor Speaks About the
Threatening Things Abroad at This
Time of t Jie Year.
“It Is surprising how many people are suf
fering to day from so-called coughs, colds and
influenza."
The remark was made by a very prominent
professor, connected with one of the leading
New York hospitals. Continuing, he said:
“It is not these things that are troubling
people, but it Is an advanced form of our old
enemy, the grip. People feel out of sorts,
sneeze, have pains in the muscles and bones,
have no appetite, lose all interest in the world
and wonder what is the matter. It is the grip;
nothing else.
"Now. all such symptoms need to have
prompt treatment. The attack must be met
and repelled at once, or It is certain to run
into something serious. I know of but one
way to certainly avoid these troubles which
are now so common, and that is, to imme
diately counteract them by ustmg a good,
pure, strong stimulant. Nothing of the ordi
nary kind, but something pure and scientific.
For this purpose nothing has ever equaled
Duffy s Pure Malt Whiskey, which is ae
knowledged to-day by physicians and scien
tific people to be the only pure, medicinal
malt whiskey upon the market.”
The words of the professor are true and
they carry a wonderful meaning to many
men and women who are suffering with the
first symptoms of grip, or else grip in its ad
vanced stages. For all such people we offer
a word of advice: which is to take the best
means to overcome these troubles and do not
permit any dealer to swerve you from your
purpose to have that which has proven itself
by years of use, to be the best and purest
stimulant In the world.
TWO SPEECHES ON HAWAII.
Davia Goes for*the President and Tur
ple Lays Out Stevens.
Washington, Jan. 11.—The Senate was
entertained to-day with two able speeches
on the subject of Hawaii. The first was by
Mr. Davis, rep., of Minnesota, in continu
ation of that which he had commenced yes
terday; and the second was by Mr. Turpie,
dem., of Indiana.
Mr. Davis argued that the appoint
ment of Mr. Blount as conftoissioner to
Hawaii without the advice and consent of
the Senate, was a presidential invasion of
the privileges of the Senate, for which he
found a parallel only once in the history
of imperial Rome. The hauling down of
the American flag in Honolulu came in
for much denunciation on the part of Mr.
Davis, in which he was sustained by
other republican senators; and he wound
up his speech by the declaration that, in
the sublime judgment of the American
people, the President's Hawaiian and
fiscal policy would be condemned.
TURPIE DENOUNCES STEVENS.
Mr. Turpie took the broad ground that
the provisional government of Hawaii
was a de-facto government which could
not rightfully be interfered with, but
that no treaty or project of annexation
with it could be honorably entered into
by the American government. Minister
Stevens was held up to execration as an
unworthy minister, and man for his coarse
expressions as to the queen who had been
his hostess for many months, and he was
characterized in Mr. Turpie’s forcible
language as a spy, an ingrate, and an out
law.
Messrs. Davis and Turpie each occu
pied the floor for two hours. The other
business of the day was unimportant.
After a short executive session, the
Senate at 5 p. in. adjourned till to
morrow.
PEACH TREES IN BLOOM.
A Second Crop of Pears Reported at
Gainesville.
Gainesville, Fla., Jan. 11.—A contrast
on a large scale was observed on our
streets yesterday—two hundred black
men with white rose buds pinned to the
lapels of their coats. This was during
the “walk" of the colored Masons, as the
“shrine” boys put it.
Anew railroad scheme is on foot in the
western part of this county, but from
where to where has not been decided.
Vidal & Bradford sent off yesterday
100 bales of moss. This is the first ship
ment in months owing to the financial
stringency at the north. They say now
that they will continue to fill orders
daily.
Waterman Johnson at Micanopy had
his barn with 150 bushels of corn de
stroyed by fire on Monday night last. In
cend'iary.
Young Mr. Cessna fell out of an
orange tree yesterday and knocked two
of his front teeth out by the fall.
The peach trees are as full of bloom as
ever known here at any time of tho
year, a second crop of pears are on the
trees and string beans for sale in shops.
A RACE TO STOP A SALE.
The Papers Reach the Auctioneer Just
in the Nick of Time.
Knoxville, Tenn., Jan. 11.—The other
day G. A. Drutzler obtained a judgment
in the circuit court of Morgan county
against the Frankfort Land Company for
$865 and the hotel and furniture on the
premises were to be sold at noon Wednes
day to satisfy said judgment. The com
pany obtained an order from
Judge Key, of the United States
court enjoining the sale, which
order came into tho hands of Marshal
Condon late Tuesday for service. The
hotel is situated about seventy miles
from Knoxville, and a good portion of the
distance was to be made on horseback
over two or three ranges of mountains,
and some hustling was certainly necessary
to stop the sacrifice of valuable property
at this sale, where other creditors were
equally interested. The marshal placed
tho order in the hands of Deputy
Marshal Sensey with instructions to
“git thar.” The officer arrived
on the grounds a few minutes before
the sale occurred and had it stopped.
The Frankfort Land Company has some
20,000 acres of land in that section of
Morgan county on which it intends to
colonize a lot of Swedes. Already quite
a number of Swedes are located there,
and the officer states that he could find
only one person in the crowd about the
hotel who could talk Euglisb, and he was
the auctioneer.
THREE KILLED ON A HANDCAR.
An Iron Train Ran It Down Owing to
Smoke Blown on the Track.
Woodward, Ala., Jan. 11.—An engine of
the Woodward Iron Company collided
with a hand car to-day with the follow
ing result: J. V. Meal, section foreman,
killed; Louis Frizzle, section laborer,
killed; James Owens, section laborer,
killed; Jim Jackson, section laborer, fa
tally injured. The men were on the hand
car returning to the furnace. The engine
was just leaving with an iron train.
Thick smoke blown on the track by a
heavy wind prevented the crews from see
ing each other.
New State Depositories.
Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 11.—Gov. Northen
to-day appointed the following banks as

last session of the legislature: Clark

THE PRAIRIE ON EIRE.
Description of a Thrilling Scene by
One Who Has Ssen It.
Maj. Burke, in Chicago Inter Ocean.
There must have been over a hundred
horses and teams within a square of
Tucker's, some tied, some browsing
around, according to loeal Custom. Sud
denly Buck Taylorjuncoiled his six foot
three of muscle off a table whence he had
been gaziugoutof a window.and shouted:
"Look at that fellow coming! Wonder
what's behind him?’* ;
Slithering ovef the prairie like a streak
of lightning was Buffalo Bill’s best razor,
“Kite," who had a record of 1:48. On
he dashed, the crowd growing more puz
zled, till we made out little Johnnie Nel
son on his back, without saddle or bridle,
only just the halter rope, aud presently
he flew past, unable to stop him, *nd
shouted to Bnffalo Bill, who stood at the
doorway:
“Fire! Pop says prairie! whoa boy,
whoa boy!"
While the little half-breed was curbing
his steed the crowd turned out and
hastily scanued the horizon with
blanched checks. Sure enough, there
beyond Cody's ranch was the dull, black
so fearfully well known to the old hands,
and, horrors of horrors! the
WIND WAS DEAD
on the town! Kite circled around, with
the foam on neck and sides, and his
young rider yelled out his appalling tnes
sage again:
“Pop, says the prairie fire—to come—
be pretty d—n quick,-or there’ll be h—-!"
Next instant the erowd were scramb
ling into buggies, catching horses, seiz
ing blankets, overcoats and rugs from
the stores, together with matches, rope,
kegs of kerosene —anything to assist
in the struggle with the flames. If Buf
falo Bill’s ranches were burned the town
must go, for they were all that separ
ated the open prairie from the wood-built
city. The colonel naturally took com
mand, and his first inquiry was:
“Where are the plows?”
"Out on tho raufch,” says the young
ster.
“Right,” says Idiij—nerver a man of
many words, and i<s—a twinkle he was
mounted on Old Charlie, and off like a
flash, followed hetter skelter by the
whole crowd, in the direction of the thick,
black smoke that was rolling up in the
east and increasing in volume every in
stant. “My God!” says somebody; “Old
Jack Moulton is doomed.” But there was
no time to discuss question. It was no
SLOUCH OF A SCARE,
that. You know what a fire is in a brick
built city; but judge what a hurricane of
destruction comes when the thick, tall
grass of prairies gets aflame, and there
are no burners to stop tho march of the
roaring devil that sweeps on with a
tongue of Are ten miles wine, and seems to
revel in the havoc it is muking. Tho Great
Scott, it makes my hair stand on end now
to think of it!
About two miles out on the ranch we
were met by scores and hundreds of
frightened cattle, horses and mules—
Moulton's and Cody’s mixed—rushing on
in maddened terror to escape. Cody
hastily ordered some of his men to head
them off, so that they Would cross the
railroad track, behind which we kept a
strip of land ready burned off in anticipa
tion of some such event, and then off we
plunged again.
About half a mile beyond tho home
stead Major North, Broncho Bill.and the
ranchmen had already started six big
plows—four and six horses to a plow, a
man on the leaders, another to handle the
whip alongside and two men taking turns
at the handies, making a “fire break," or
plowed strip of land to the river bank.
Other teams with water barrels were
streaming along; and presently dashing
here and there, givipg orders and dis
patching couriers, rode Buffalo Bill,
whose arrival was the signal for wild
shouts of applause. The little army
knew that his experience would tell
him what best to do. Dipping long Popes
in the kerosene and lighting them, dozens
of us rode alongside the furrow nearest
the approaching danger, firing the grass
close to the plowed ground.
a burnino line
to the river was soon slowly crackling
against the wind, while with wet blankets
ran hero and there, men whipping out
any stray sparks that crossed the border
or fell from the air, which had now be
come almost stifling hot,- Che flue ashes
which were falling making It look gray,
as if it snowed. Faster approached the
great mass of smoke and flame. It did
not sweep along as the “back fire" did,
but jumped 100 yards at a time, hissing,
rumbling, crackling as if it were snap
ping up a forest of young timber. A
grand sight and a fearful one; though
we’d not much time to look at It. We
jusi pui in live years’ work in one hour, 1
reckon, and some of us—old John Nelson,
especially—fought it so close that ho had
beard and eyebrows singed.
There was a dead silence. “My gal
Annie” was missing and w(s gazed at, each
other with horrified faces. Then old
Jack turned to Chicago With lightning in
his eves.
“She stood beside you as you mounted,
you cur! Why did you leave her?”
The youngster muttered something
about having no time, but, almost before
he had opened his mouth, the old man had
cut him down senseless with the butt of
the heavy whip he carried. Next mo
ment he sprang to his saddle and would
have forced the trembling horse back
toward the approaching flames, but the
iron hand of Buffalo Bill had gripped the
bridle.
“Moulton,” said he; “it's awful; but I
can’t let you commit suicide 1”
All this had passed in a few seconds,
and our boys were still working away for
dear life all along the “fire break. ” In
the meantime the

which had been loose, their
masters being at work on foot, had dashed
off for the ranch, with old Charlie at
their head and a couple of cowboys at
their tails. The backfire slowly worked
to windward, and when it reached a dis
tance of about r quarter of a mile >it
seemed, all at once, to be swal
lowed up by a billow of flame, which as it
struck the saving shore, leaped a hun
dred feet in the air and turned to clouds
of the blackest smoke.
Then rose a mighty shoutfrom the river,

His heart had hurst in that last wild ef
fort. He carried a man and a woman
young Si and “my gat Annin” Si's hat
and shirt were on fire, but the girl though
gasping in tho extremity of terror, was
unscathed. Rbady hands quickly extin
guished tho lad's smouldering garments.
It was a near thing for him, though, for
his long flaxen hair had been burned to
the scalp, and there were blisters on his
back.
Then old man Moulton came out of his
shell surprisingly. With tears of joy
streaming down his withered cheeks, he
seized the young fellow’s hand and said:
“1 reckon you’ve about aimed that gal
Annie, and you can take hor, tny son, for
your own as soon as you like.”
We watched the fire slowly burn down to
the river's edge and expire. Tho ranch
and the town woro safe, and so was the
Wild West outfit. I had seen one of the
most awful sights that it ever falls to the
lot of man to witness, and tne next day
we all convivialized over one of the pleas
antest.
A happy wedding, that was—Si Peters,
with a sore back and his fathcr-in-law's
blessing and $20,000 in his pocket, married
the prettiest girl around North Platte,
and I reckon we had a high old time.
Young Chicago was absent, but nobody
scorned to miss him much. Wo do our
hitching expeditiously in Nebraska; no
publishing bans and all that, for we are
a business people out there, and don't
you forget it.
VAILLANT TO APPEAL.
He Reconsiders His Determination
Not to Do So,
Paris, Jan. 11.—Notwithstanding Vail
lant’s assertion yesterday that he would
not sign the appeal from his sentence, he
to-day announced thut he would sign it.
The appeal will ask the supremo court to
quash the verdict and to graut anew
trial. Vaillaut says that if the repeal
should be rejected he will not appeal to
President Carnot for pardon.
The prisoner was transferred this af
ternoon from the prison of the conoier
gerie to the Grand Roquetto. just outside
of which he will be executed, if the ver
dict rendered yesterday stands, and he is
not pardoned. Before he left he profusely
thanked the governor of tho eonciergorie
for his good treatment.
