ItentinK Agenta Have Hard Work
This Hut Weather and They Would
lake to See the Season Changed to
some More Suitable Period of the
Year.
The renting season is now on in full
blast. Oct. lis moving day in Savannah
and preceding three months are devoteJ
by tenants and agents in making ar
rangements for the ensuing year. This is
hard on both as it requires them to do
their most important work during the hot
test period of the year and at a time, 100,
when many people are out of the city.
This makes it necessary to do a great deal
of work by correspond 'nee, which is not
near so satisfactory as personal interviews
and often leads to vexatious delays.
Inquiry among the renting and real es
tate agents shows that there is a very
lively inquiry at present for houses. Many
inquiries are being made in person and
by letter and’the agents are very busy ex
plaining the advantages of the various
properties which (hey have to offer and
arguing away the objections of applicants.
Not many engagements have been made
' et, but the numerous inquiries show
that considerable changing about is to be
. xpected among the householders when
moving day comes.
We have had a very active demand for
some time,” said a well-known agent to
Morning News reporter. The demand
chiefly for small houses, well located
aid at reasonable rentals. This demand
chiefly for houses from t 33 a month
~own, and the greatest demand is for
he,uses at £ls a month and less. These
houses; are wanted by people with small
-lmllies. say from two to live members
a family. There is a very considerable
: umber of these houses offering, but the
■mand seems not to he equal to the sup
s’. The number of new houses whie.i
n-e been built this year does not seem
, have affected) the demand in any way
, ,;r is there any difficulty in renting tle
rable property.
"Large hour.es,” sold the agent, "are
rot ouite so much in demand. "Aoont
the only demand for houses bringing SSO
to S6O a month is for hoarding houses and
iMs demand is limited. Some of the Inrge
houses are rented l in flats and for these
there is a fair demand. Altogether the
outlook is very satisfactory to us, though
it will take otiother month to tell how
we are coming out on the season. As the
people who have been away from town
tor the summer come hack home we be
at closing up our contracts and we be
gin to know how we stand. The number
..r' vacant houses aL present is compara
tively small and 1 I think the same state
■f affairs will prevail here after Oct.
1. The demand appears to keep pace with
the supply and As most of the building
for this year is practically done I do net
think there is any danger of landlords
having unprofitable property, on their
hands during the coming year."
“'lncidentally,” remarked the asent.
“\ou might suggest that moving day te
■hanged from Oct. 1 to Jan. 1 or May 1.
it would he much tetter for everybody
concerned. The agents could work with
much more satisfaction during the winter
String, and certainly the people who
undergo the strain of house-hunting wcull
find it much easier in ecu ler weath r tl an
during the hot summer morphs. Savannah
is, w added to her old customs, however,
t t I hardly suppose it i- worth while to
d.-truss the subject of a change."
LIVE FISH 1A BOV’S THROAT.
Ills Life Wn* in Bertl I'll til He Fin
ally Swallowed It.
From the Now York World.
An incident peculiar in kind and for
a time threatening fatal results befell
yesterday the 3-year-old son of Mr. and
Mrs. Oliver W. Hubbard of Riverhead,
L. I. He swallowed alive a small flat
fish. which lodged in his throat. For two
hours nil efforts to remove It proved fu
tile. Meantime the boy was suffering
excruciating pain and his parents were
frantic with terror and grief.
In one of the rooms of the Hubbard
borne is a small glass aquarium, the
particular delight of the little hoy. He
was content, to watch for hours the tish
swimming about. Mrs. Hubbard had fre
quently seen him show a desire to put
his chubby fist in the. water and play
with the tish. She had always reproved
him.
He was yesterday in his favorite place
by the glass globe when his mother left
the room. During her absence he must
have improved the opportunity to play
With the fish. Mrs. Hubbard was first
alarmed by the sound of the boy falling
to the floor.
When she entered the room the child's
face was livid. She raised him in her
arms and frantically sought for the
cause of his condition. Her eries for help
brought Mr. Hubbard. He opened the
child’s mouth and was astounded to see
the tail of a fish wriggling fur down the
boy’s threat. He caught the tall be
tween his fingers and strove to remove
the fish. Its twisting und wriggling
could bo plainly felt. But the scales and
fins clung to the boy's throat when the
fish was drawn back and Mr. Hubbard
Instantly appreciated that his efforts to
remove it were futile.
Dr. A, E. Payne was summoned by
messenger. He found the boy nearly
unconscious from exhaustion, as the fish
prevented breathing. Nearly two hours
were repent in trying various means to
withdraw the fish. All failed. Finally
the bov was placed under the influence of
chloroform and the fish was moved far
enough to one side of hts throat to al
low him to breathtj. As the hoy's strug
gles ceased the fish was observed to bo
slowly slipping down, and at last it was
swallowed, t
The patient's condblon was Improving
last night, and he will recover.

Anew departure in electric railroading, i
and one destined to have an important
bearing on the future motor power, is
about to go into operation between Albany
and Hudson. New York. The total length
of the road is nearly thirty-eight miles.
New steel rails have been laid and the
roadbed has been newly ballasted accord
ing to the best modern practice for high
speed service. The current is supplied hy
a third rail, laid parallel to the other rails,
similar to the third rail used in Brooklyn,
and the power for operating the railroad is
supplied from one power station and gen
erated by water power. From that point
it is transmitted at a pressure of 12,000
volts to sub-stations along the line of the
railway. The construction of the road
has cost $2,500,000. This is the largest
third-rail eleetrical system in operation,
and the first time the third rail has been
used on a surface -railroad. The novel
feature of this system, and that which
railroad officials are most interested in. is
the bringing together of the best elements
of all electric Westerns.

POISONED BY A PIN PRICK.
Mysterious Murder of n Noted Hus
sion General.
From the Philadelphia Record.
Berlin. Aug. 16.—Russian officials declare
that the murder of Gen. Pantelegeff, who
was second in command of the imperial
gendarmie, was done by pricking his
wrist with a poisonous scarfpin.
Prince and Princess Apalinoff, who have
been in Paris, passed through here to-day
on their way to St. Petersburg, in order
to give testimony at the investigation, as
tehy saw’ the General die. •
The General and an exceedingly good
looking and well-dressed young stranger
were seated opposite the Prince and
Princess in the railroad carriage. AH
four got into conversation during the
cour.se of the journey. After it had be
come dusk and before the lamps were
lighted the stranger rose rather abruptly
from his seat, and as he did so in some
way pricked his neighbor’s wrist in micih
n manner as to call forth an exclamation
on the part of the General.
The stranger was profuse in his apolo
gies, and ascribed the prick to his scarf
pin. which he had struck in his sleeve
after using it to out the pages of a book.
At the next stop of the train he alight
ed and disappeared. An hour later, when
another passenger entered and asked the
General to move a little to one side, it
was discovered that he was dead. It was
•it first believed that the General had suc
cumbed to heart failure, and it w-as not
until the autopsy took place that the doc
tors found, first of all. the mark of a pin
or needle prick, the skin around it being
black and “angry.” and subsequently dis
covered traces of a very virulent poison,
evidently communicated by means of the
pin or needle.
The Prince and Princess learned of the
result of the autopsy while staying here
at the Central Hotel early last week, and,
remembering the incident of the pin prick,
at once notified the Russian embassy here.
Several arrests have been made in con
nection with the crime, which Is ascribed
to the anarchist movement in Russia, for
anarchists and nihilists there are one and
the same thing.
Prince and Princess Apalinoff are need
ed nt St. Petersburg to identify their fel
low’ traveler, and, like the authorities
here, they do not hesitate to express their
perturbation at this new’and alarming form
of anarchist assassination. For. while
it may he iosrible to protect one’s self
from bullets, knives and bombs, it is diffi
cult. to ward off mere pin pricks of a
deadly poisonous nature.

In his shop, J. H. Rickel Is happy.
"The Old Curiosity Shop” could not have
surpassed in novelty the little carriage
shop of Rickel. Only within the past few
days, however, have the people known of
the strange contents of a box which has
always been near the front window of the

discovery was made then.
Mr. Rickel says it seems only natural
that he should wanf the toJy of his Arts

fe:t and the features of the face almost
life-like. The wife died at the age of 26.
almost a quarter of a century ago, in
North Dakota, among the Bad Lands.
When h< decided to come to Kansas he
disinterred the body and found it to be
petrified. Ever since then Rickel has kept
the body of his first wife near him. al
