I'rom Jacksonville for the Bent

\ : departments of the Plant System and
, Florida Central and Peninsular have
worked pretty hard lately. Handling
. - many troops as the roads have In a
. it time from Jacksonville to Savan
is no small job. This the transpor
i 11 ion people have become more than
, nr assured of, and the work of the pas
... • ,er and freight departments has not
,u hy an means lessened. Everything
1 as been going with a rush, and extra
pours have been worked by many.
The brunt of the work falls upon the
transportation people. They have to be
at u early and late, and there Is hardly a
man in the department who will not be
psal when the moyement is over and mat
n rs have settled down into the ordinary
course.
tine official said yesterday that he would
cimainly be glad when tlje war business
i all over and things resume the peace
tooling they had before the little difficulty
with Spain began. This gentleman has
bad a great deal of experience with troop
movements, and it has not all been pleas,
ant. There have been many things to
annoy, and the work has not gone on as
smoothly as it should. He thinks this ha?
Pirn largely due to the way he says army
cffiri rs have of giving a lot of conflicting
orders. He found that a division com
mander would give an order that would
la* carried out by the road, only to have
it to do all over again, because some brig
:idler general or colonel objected to what
had been done and wanted it done differ
ently. This has caused a great deal of
confusion at times, and has been the oc
casion of annoyances tc both the railroad
men and troops. The most satisfactory
method the transportation man encoun
ters was that employed by Slaj. Bellinger
at Tampa. The major was in charge of
the quartermaster department there, and
he had things going as he said. His or
ders concerning the movements of troops
and equipment by the roads were final,
and the railroad men could count upon
their being adhered to. This tvas an as
sistance and helped things considerably,
though with it came a trouble. This was
on account of the major having too en
larged an idea of what the railroads could
do, and orders for the movement of two
tegiments a day from Tampa were found
very difficult to cirry out. Instructions
were obeyed, but no speed In loading and
getting the trodps.away could be had.
Tampa was for a long time in a congested
condition, and equipment could not be se
cured by the roads for movements at short
notice or when they were very large.
Just at the time when supplies of all
sorts were being rushed in such immense
quantities to Tampa there were cars side
tracked at nearly every station between
Tampa and Jacksonville. A transporta
tion man said yesterday that he had made
a calculation of the ears that were side
tricked on account of not having track
room at Tampa and on account of the
government having no way to receive or
More the freight, and that he had found
| here were more than 2.C00 that were wait
ing their turn to be taken into Tampa. All
the cars were marked “rush,” but there
was very little rushing about it. They
were simply taken to their destination as
toe tracks were opened up In front of
them.
The official went on to say that he
thought a mistake was made In sending
the regiments so fast from Jacksonville to
Savannah. He claims the two lines over
wnich the troops came are as well able
my in the country to handle troops in
addition to their regular business, and that
there is no line that could bring the regi
ments up as fast as they came without a
great deal of trouble and delay. Two reg
iments a day. he says, was too strong a
movement. They were handled that way,
but the work was not done as satisfactorily
or as well as it would have been done 1 ad
tin* department allowed the roads more
'■me. It is the railroad man’s idea that a
"giment a day on one line would have
"'ll about the right pace for the com
ni Hiding officers to set for the movement,
i his would have made it necessary for a
I' .ul to move ond every two days, and this
would not have entailed such a great
amount of extra work and would have
111 ” ■ the movements much more satisfac
tory in every way.
The official said his department can move
fvr- of the trains of regular business with
trouble than they can move one train
"f troops. The big troop movements call
!;; r the employment of a lot of extra men.
'ey are sometimes not as well up in the
business as the regular men, and the trains
ure, therefore, handled awkwardly.

No woman is fit to marry who has any

should prevent her seeking immediate re

of the mortifying examinations so detesta

The ‘‘ Favorite Prescription ” is the only
proprietary remedy of its kind prepared by
an educated, authorized physician. There
is hardly a case so obstinate that it will
not completely and permanently cure.
Mrs. Emma G. Clover, of Redkey, Jay Cos.,

SAVANNAH MF.X IN SANTIAGO.
Cnj>t. Westmoreland's Company
Governing So gun <le Tannino.
A New York Sun special from Santiago
dated Oct. 24, gives the latest news from
that part of the Third United States Vol
unteers, Col. Ray’s regiment, doing duty
on the north coast of Cuba. It will be
seen that the Savannah company, Capt.
Westmoreland’s, Is now garrisoning Saqua
de Tanamo, a town of 1,000 inhabitants, in
the province of Santiago de Cuba.
The Sun says: “Maj. Starr, inspector
general of the military department of San
tiago, returned this morning on the steam
er San Juan from a mission of relief along
the north coast of the province. He was
accompanied by Capt. Shelly of the Fifth
Immunes and Lieut. Brooks of Gen.
Wood’s staff.
“Maj. Starr told the correspondent of
the Sun that the people along the north
coast wore raising vegetables, including
potatoes and beans. Ail the ’ assistance
they needed from the outside was meat
and clothes for the women and children,
a large number of whom are naked.
“Gen. Wood has decided' to ask the
Washington government to send him a
quanfUy of calico and light woollen stuffs,
buttons, needles and thread.
“Maj. Starr told Gen. Wood that there
had been no complaints of armed Cuban
preventing paciflcos from working on the
plantations around Baracoa and Sagua de
Tanamo since Lieut. Col. Wyily of the
Third Immunes disarmed the party ted by
a noisy provisional brigadier three weeks
ago.
“Maj. Starr, in pursuance of orders from
Gen. Wood, reduced the garrison at Sagua
de Tanamo to one company. The two
companies that had been at that place for
two months were taken to Baracoa. Capt.
Westmoreland and a company of the
Baracoa garrison were transferred to
Sagua de Tanamo, which is now a sub
post of the Baracoa garrison, under the
command of Lieut. Col. Wylly, who was
recently advanced to that rank from the
grade of major. Capt. Harris, the former
cqmmander of the Sagua de Tanamo
garrison, has been made a major.
“The sickness among the troops at Sa
gua de Tanamo and Baracoa, which caus
ed great uneasiness here a month ago, has
diminished and the men will soon be in
excellent shape.”
BAA'D PLAYED INDOORS.
Weather Watt Too Cold Outside for
Men Without Their Overcoat*.
The regimental band of the One Hundred*
and Sixty-first Indiana gave a concert at
the De Soto last night. The men did not
have their overcoats with them when they
came in, and it was rather cold for them
on the piazza.
Maj. Russeil B. Harrison, who has
charge of the band concerts, therefore ar
ranged to have them go inside the hotel.
They were seated in the sun parlor, and
for a couple of hours kept the hotel lively
with stirring airs.
Maj. Harrison expects to have one of
the regimental bands give a concert in
the band stand in the park extension this
afternoon for the entertainment of ladies
and children. The next evening concert
will probably be Friday evening, but the
piace for it has not yet been arranged.
The One Hundred and Sixty-first Indiana
band Is one of the crack bands of the
regiment, and its music last night was
greatly enjoyed.

of my desire's since being connected with
the Police Commission is to slop liquor
felling on Sundays. There has been no
complaint made’, though, and 1 say now
I don’t know of a single man in Savan
nah. lo my own knowledge, who violates
tnis part of the law. If there are any
who have tills knowledge, let them siie.ik
or hold their peace.”
Where will the gamblers and saloon
keepers be if the rigid enforcement of the
law* becomes the issue? This is n ques
tion asked in ali quarters, and while som ■
i** 1 ie\e they wiil flock to the liberal con
structionist candidate, others claim there
are a number of saloon men who do not
keep their places open, and others who
would nol do so, either, if there was an
impartial enforcement of the law. It is
said some are forced to keep open in
order to hold their customers, os the trade
they accumulate during the week will all
go to the fellow who “runs ’er wide
open.”
There are about ten saloon-keepers in
Savannah who will fell nothing on Sun
day under any circumstances, while it is
said there are ofiiers who run in order
to keep even. For this reason it is thought
by some a platform which lays down the
rigid enforcement or tftA law will not nec
essarily deprive ihe candidate of the en
tire vote of the saloon element.
AT THE THEATER.
Tlie .lane*-K lililer-AYard I’rodue
tion of “School for Scandal.’*
Sheridan's comedy, “The School for
Scandal,” was presented at the theater
last night by a trio of stars and a company
of actors in a manner which it is seldom
the fortune of Southern theater-goers to
see.
“The School for Scandal” is one of the
fine old comedies that one seldom has
an opportunity of seeing nowadays. It is
a play that teaches as well as amuses,
and one that leaves an impression with
the audience.
It would be difficult Indeed to decide lie
tween Mr. James. Mis? Kidder and Mr.
Warde as to whom the honors belonged.
They were divided. It seemed as though
each was cast particularly for the role
portrayed. Mr. James was seen to better
advantage than he has ever appeared. It
has long been his ambition to forsake
tragedy, and it would seem that his wish
Is not onfy gratified, but justified. Some
how or another Mr. Warde always acts
a villalnofis ro? better than lie joes a
“good'' one. As Joseph Surface, not ex
actly a villainous role, but closely akin, he
is at his best.
The Lady Teazle of Miss Kkl.’er was
a most artistic portrayal. There is a state
liness and a grace about her that Ih per
fectly charming. As the gay, brilliant,
thoughtless Lady Teazle, she was distress
ingly delightful.
The play was handsomely staged and
even the minutest detail was looked after
in the presentation. The audience was
large and there were several curtain calls.
The following was the east of characters:
Sir Peter Teazle. Mr. Harry Langdon
Sir Oliver Surface Mr. Frank Peters

SPIRITS STILL CI.INI RING.
Price Now Up to 35',J tent* n
Gallon.
The price of spirits turpentine continues
to advance. Yesterday the market ad
vanced fully 1 cent, carrying the price
lo 35',4 cents. There seems to be a strong
demand from exporters and from Ameri
can operators.
The fire last Monday in New York de
stroyed nearly all of the stock at that
port, and, as there Is very little here and
at Liverpool, U Is only natural that the
price should advance.
The daily receipts are light, and there
Is an opinion that on account of the heavy
rains during the past three months, the
crop has been greatly reduced, and that
the output will be less than was previously
expected.
