O. D.” Due not was made by the clerk; but when the articles arrived at the hotel the purchaser was surprised to find that no charges had been collected. Opening the package the American was dumfounded to discover that each piece of silver had been carefully engraved, in a beautiful monogram. “C. O.

Dunbar has been very fortunate In eluding the'offloers Daily Schedule For Boats. Savannah, Ga., March 29.—One of the greatest evidences of the fact that Savannah has plenty of water In its harbor is tbe announcement by the Ocean Steamship Company and the Merchants and Miners Transporta tion Company that la a short time the vessels of these concerns will leave for New York, Boston Philadel phia and Baltimore on a daily ached ule. Heretofore the ships have sail ed only upon a high tide. Now, how ever, thanks to the deeper water In the river they can depart at any time.

It is be lieved that this change in the sail ing hour of the ships will be used as a part of the argument for the defense In the Greene And Gaynor case.
