Tlic News Seemn to Think So—Col. Hawk-
In* Able to Flay HU Own Hand.
The following 1h clipped from the Sa
vannah Morning News, from an article
advocating an extemrfon of the road to
Savannah:
“The Sam people deny most emphat
ically that there was any breach of
contract on their part. The traffic agree
ment they claim was broken by the Rich
mond A Danville because it was jealous
of the prosperity of the Sam route,
which was securing much of tho busi
ness formerly turned into Savannah by
the Central.
“,‘The troublcjbetween the two roads/
said ;» railroad man, ‘in already having
its effect. The Savannah. Americus
Montgomery, finding itself shut out
here, lias simply begun turning its busi
ness into Brunswick via the Kast Ten
nessee, Virginia A’ Georgia road, with
which it has through freight ar
rangements. All foreign freights
will be sent that way, and the
attempt of the Central to cripple the Sa
vannah, Americus and Montgomery, in
stead of being • successful to the end
aimed at, will be only instrumental in
helping to reiuce the business here,
“Some people seem to think that the
whole thing is a game of blutf on the
part of the Richmond and Danville to
compel the S. A. M. to sell, “but,” said
a Bay street man, “if that is the scheme
of the Richmond and D»nvillo it has
struck a man in Col. Hawkins who can
neither be scared nor bluffed. It has
always beeu a pet idea of his to have
an independent line to Savannah, and
the action of the big corporation will no
doubt cause 1dm to lay his plans at once
to get in here. He will meet with en
couragement from the business men of
the city.”
‘Col. Hawkins was in Baltimore yester
day and was expected to start South last
night. When he comes to Savannah his
version of the broken contract will be
given/’—Savannah Morning News.
The Work of Man It Wonderful.
When they can take wax figures and
make them exactly like the man they
represeut; making them breathe, open
and shut their eyes, is copying nature so
closely that ft is acknowledged by press
and public that ft is one ot the finest
pieces of mechanism workmanship in
the country. We have right here in this
city the historical figures of Gen. Custer
and Sitting Bull as natural as life, breath
ing and moving. Call at the 10 cent
Musee and see them.
Mr. William T. Price, a Justice of the
Peace, at Richland, Nebraska, was con
fined to his bed last winter with a se
vere attack of lumbago; but a thorough
application of Chamberlain’s Pain Balm
enabled him to get up and go to work,
Mr. Price says: “The Remedy cannot
be recommended too highly.*' Iait any
one troubled with rheumatism, neural
gia or lame back give it a trial and they
will be of tho same opinion. 50 cent

in tlies days of cumercial aktivity, when eaclrstor shud sho aa
attempt 2 ke ipiu up 2 tho methods and posibilites of the times, let
firm hav the nowledge of how 2 by—let them hav the pluk 2 plan im-
provmcnts—let them hav the energy to kary them out and u wil J 0
wel 2 let them havyor trade.
A yer ago ther wer the remains of an engin lious on tho korner of
Lee and Lamar streets. 2 da u hav forgoten the engin lions—you
rarely cal tho plas otlir than the Rtezen Korner. Wat has changed
it ? Nothin’ but pluk an’ energy.
Pluk and energy hav changed it from barenos 2 buty, fild it wit]]
a stok which surprisd u for komprehensivnes. 2 da it is 3 times as
large as thou—it is stil growin. A yer ago fu had herd of Butler &
Berry. 2da ther are few among tho readin public 2 whom ther names
hav not a familer jingle, and ther r fu among the tradin public who do
not consider tho names Butler <fc Berry synonimus with ‘ekonomy and
squames.’
300 yers ago Sliaksper said, “All men hav ther prices,” but had lie
lived in Americus 2da he wud hav also told' u who lmd the cheapest
prices. Then it takes no Sliaksper to realies that if a firm, insted o
hying smal quantites at larg prices, will by larg quantites 2 get smal
prices, tha can esily lowor your expenses. Pluk nnd energy an yor
own ideas of economy hav made tho Btezen Korner hedquarters for
everything from a tea cup to dinner set—from a tin pan 2 a stov. A
yer ago this week the front dors of our stor wer thron open, an we
w ited 4 the strangers 2 cum in. Since then we hav wated on u. IVe
