~i , i- ,1. w . it having been at first
p, "tnnntion to award the contracts for
,h, „ r k to railroad and bridge construc

canon. At a recent meeting of the direc
tor oft he company it tvas suggested that
this method would probably answer, but
H h(S sinc ,. lie on decided that to adver
tise might be the better 'plan.
Maj. Johnson has the advertisements all
n aly and, as soon as-he hears from the
tmddent who was authorized by the di
rectors to proceed with his advertise
nai t for proposals, the papers in which
it i proposed advertise will be sent the
matter Savannah, Mobile, New Orleans,
Richmond. Norfolk. J'hiladelphia, Balti

which the atlvt riisementa wilt Ire run, it
Kins the desire of thb Officials to have
tlt-m published in those places where there
dredging concerns that might wish to
undertake the work.
It is expected that Mr. liViiliams will
Wire within the next day or two with re
gard to this m titer, and immediately after
void is re.vivid from him Maj. Johnson
sill proceed. The advertisements are to
run approximately two weeks. About that
length of time after the first advertise
tneu appears the bidte’wiW be opened, as
it is particularly desired by the officials
that there be no further delay lip getting
to work. The contractors who may prove
successful will be expected to begin oper
ations very shortly after the award of
the contracts.
There will be no occasion for delay
through any slowth in the office of the
chief engineer. Already the estimates,
plans t : specifications arc being drawn
up. and these will be ready for the in
spection of any prospective bidders at
whatever time alter the advertisements
nr. begun they may care to visit the of
ten to ook them over. From the infor
tunium they may gather from this pre
liminary work of the engineer's force,
contractors can tell just what (hey will
be is]<viid to do should their proposals
pi'CO- i it most acceptable, and their bids
can he made up accordingly.
Tin- wotk that is soon to be undertaken
Is scan, . ttnd great sums will he -

botis. s 1,,,i lumber yards occupying an
ana that has hitherto been but a rest
ing place for the llotsam and jetsam of
the Savannah river when tho weather
was sinrmy or tides unusually high.
There are to he four of these slips, one
oi them of unusual length, This is to be
the easternmost and will bo that from
which lumber and spirits will be loaded.
One side of ti ls slip, that from which
the vessels will receive their cargoes of
lumber, is to be of saw-tooth construc
tion, thm affording berths for eleven
ships. This slip is to be 230 feet wide
stitl 1.409 feet long. The other slips, which
will to smaller, though of no Liliputian
dimensions, will he those from which oth
er stores and products will be loaded.
One of them will be devoted to a coaling
plain, where splendid coaling facilities will
be afforded. In this slip a vessel may be
coaled in a few minutes, a trestle work
running along the length and admitting
of the coil being dropped into the bur.k
tt~ through the bottom of the cars.
A notable change in connection with
the work is to be the alteration of the
harbor line. The present wharves on the
island do pot conform at all to the line
given out by Capt. O. M. Carter, and the
Terminal company will have to cut away
tat everag. of 135 feet from the present
bank. Tho river must, according to the
liies niinn-1 by the government engineers,
have a width of 1100 feet. At the narrow
er! poini along its course touching the
Terminal company's property it is now
about 465 feel witle, and considerable
tlrulging will have to be done in order to
g't a portion of this bottom to the re
quisite depth.

In the I'nited States Court yesterday a
motion for anew trial in the case of John

In passing the order refusing the grant
of anew trial. Judge Speer said that the
verdict for SI,OOO was possibly too little,
but that the question of damages had been
su’omittedvto a jury, and he was not dis
posed to overrule its finding.
The case of E. Borda & Son et al. vs C.
H. Dixon & Cos. et al., in equity, was call

GEORGE M’ALPIVS SIRE AIM.
His Recent Fine Shooting; In ft Pig
eon Match In New York.
Mr. George S. McAipin, formerly of Sa
vannah, and one of the best ama
teur shots and advocates of gentlemen's
sports, has made several remarkable rec
,.j_ _<• eKruUin.tr he WCHt tO !i “ v
York, several years ago. Mr. MOAipin is
almost beyond challenge the best shot with
a shotgun in this country. The New York
Herald gives an account of a double-hand
ed match won by Mr. McAipin and Mr.
R. A. Welch of the Cartaret Gun Club
against Capt. A. W. Money, Carteret, and
C. S. Guthrie, a member of the Heron
Hill Gun Club, Pittsburg.
The conditions of the match were Mil
birds each, thirty yards rise and thirty
yards boundary, for ssflo a side.
There were more than the average num
ber of members and guests of the club
present, among them being Foxhall Keene,
Gen. Anson G. McCook, W. W. YVatrous,
Herbert M. Harriman, Elmer E. Bhaner,
E. D. Fttlford, Isaac Eckert, Reading, Pa.;
E. S. Thompson, James A. Welch, Louis
Harrison. Minneapolis; J. 8. E. Remsen,
E. Taylor, W. Fred tjuimby, W. F. Hoyt
and August Loeing.
Features of the match worth especial
mention were the extraordinary strong lot
of birds served from the traps, the heavy
westerly wind that blew across the ground
from right to left, and the fact that such
reliable shots as Welch, Money and Guthrie
came out of the contest with 24, 30 and 31
misses, respectively, against them.
The four contestants as well as many an
expert wing shot who looked on. were un
unanimously of the opinion that they had
never seen a prompter or stronger iot of
hints spring from any set of traps in all
their experience. Added to the natural
velocity of the birds was the weight of
a good old topsail Itreeze tbr&wn Into the
scale. The fact that a large proportion
of the birds, from natural instinct, flew
down the wind, had very much to do with
the unusual percentage of misses and
birds dead out of bounds—ln the latter
case many a pigeon though shot through
and through carrying down on the wind
just over the fence.
Again, many of the ninety-five lost birds
would shoot out of the trap to the right
in the teeth of the wind, and then, find
ing this heavy, like a (lash of lightning
would turn sharp round and quarter to
the left. Of the 400 sprung, 115 were left
quarterers and 98 others drove out away
from the traps, but aiomst invariably in
clined to the left. With the latter class,
Capt. Money came very near establish
ing a graveyard just outside the bound
ary. He had five left-quartering drivers
dead In a bunch against the fence when
the match was over.
Nothing but this phenomenally fast lot
of birds and the high wind can account
reasonably for the fact that three men
whose 100 bird records range from 92 to
93 kills fell down with such a big array
of misses against them.
It is no discredit to George McAipin,
one of the winning team, and who made
the least number of misses, to say that
whatever good fortune enters into trap
shooting came his way. Nearly a third
of his birds undertook to fly against the
wind, which of course retarded the speed
of their flights.and both he and Mr. Welch,
his partner, had fewer drivers than either
of the defeated men.
Though to some extfnt favored by these
condition, Mr. McAipin had more than a
few teasing incomers and twisters, and
these he brought down in faultless fashion.
Throughout the match he shot with the u
most steadiness, missing but one easy bird
in his hundred. Another feature of his
shooting was that he rarely let a bird get
up and attain any degree of velocity, the
bulk of his ninety-one grassed iteing killed
within a few yards of the trap. And the
fact that he used a No. ti instead of the
ordinary No. 7 shot helped him, with the
stiff wind that was blowing.
All things considered, character of the
birds and the weather conditions, Mr. Mc-
Aipin Is Justly entitled to be proud of the
score he made.
Of the losers it pipy be fairly said that
they hal akxaut a p difficult a lot of birds as
the Cartaret boys' have evjjr put in the
traps. Twisters, incoming and outgoing,
towerers, drivers low and high, lift quar
terers that drove down on the wind like
bullets—they seemed to get all that kind,
and some others that came or went all
sorts of ways. In his second twenty-five
Guthrie missed bird after bird, and no one
blamed him, and his partner, Capt. Money,
had a similar run of teasers between the
fiftieth and seventy-fifth rounds.

To-morrow night the will
sing "Tho Serenade,” Victor Hubert's
charming opera. The Bostonsins are
credited with giving a most delightful and
artistic rendition of this compostiorv, and
the story and music has never failed to
please. The background is furnished by
life in Castile in the eighteenth century,
and an attractive scries of stage pictures
is furnished in the rollicking spirijs pf bri
gands and monks; the dashing tjoquettry
of dashing peasant girls In a tiukling bo
lero; the ludicrous adventures of a jealous
old duke and his rival Alvarado, and the
masquerade of his ward, Dolores and
Yvonne, a danseuse as hoys. Judging from
the advance sales, the Bostotjians will
have the largest house this season. All of
the boxes have been taken y by thrater par
ties.
Yale’s “Devil's Auction’” will Vdose the
week with two perfoymatjc4, (falurdfay
manlnee and night. To paraphtase the
well-known title, Mephistopheles’i bargain
counter is a popular melange of inn-ie and
mix-up that appeals particularly' 'to the
fancy of-those who enjoy a lively perform
ance. The auction always offers a lot of
pretty girls, witty comedians, and flashy
scenery. Every year the ensemble Is
changed, though the title is adhered to,
because of its familiarity and Its ability
to draw ducata at the box office. Plot is
not seriously attempted. It is, merely a
massing of specialties that thoroughly
amuse the theater-goer. The scenery Is
an adjunct to the show, and the costum
ing is elaborate.
rhil and Nettie Peters and the Peters
Comedy Company will bo at the theater
all next week at popular prices. The com
pany mafic quite- a hit when here last
season.
This year everything is new. None of
the plays, faces or specialties were seen
with the company last year. The manage
ment announces daily matinees excepting
Monday.
