Islnr Up of tlie Player* in the Open ing Gnine—Butler at the Head of the Florida Team—The Fernnndt ninnM* Experience in Shirt Waist*. Tamed Down at a Hotel and Took Their hunch Outside. The Brunswick and the Fernandian baseball teams will play the first game of the series of three this afternoon at the 80-ton Street Park. Both teams will have out their best line-ups and a go<i game may be expected, as besides the rivalry i hat has existed between the nines, the entire season, there is an added in centive to good ball playing in the shape of a SI,OOO stake and a percentage of the gate receipts. Frank Butler, captain of the Fernandi na team, reached Savannah yesterday. The men headed by Manager Thomas C. Borden and Mr. P. C. Kelly, arrived early this morning. The Brunswick team is expected to ar rive at 11 o'clock. It is expected 'that it will be accompanied by Its celebrated mascot, Chue Hall. The line-up for to-day’s game will be as follows: Brunswick. Fernandina.

Hooker and Byers, the battery for Fer nandina, played with the Richmond, Va., team in the Virginia State League, while Hendley and Sullivan, Brunswick’s bat tery, are from Rome ami have an excel lent reputation as ball players. The game will be called promptly at 4:30 o'clock. The grounds have been put in good condition especially for this series of games and in addition extensive repairs have been made to the grand stand.

Several of the boy.- hid agieed at lueakfast 10 dine in their d-iinti?*t negligees. It remained for the hi nd-'-haired short stop, Mosely, to lead the grand march in o dinner, where he was confronted by the proprietress of the hotel, who refused, emphatically, to ap -1 use the wants of he inner man, until tli- Kg’datl n dre s had he?n donned. A though the boys had expected to meet with icy glances and froz n nods of rec ognition. there had s ill lingered a hope that the burning rays of old Sol would, in a measure hove thawei the wrath of theii landlady. But woman’s inhumanity to man caus and a speedy change in board ing places, for Mosely, Lukenbill, Milless and Cl irk, havirg the courage of their convictions, refused to be rehabilitated, and din and on canned beans and sardines n a box car. T. J. HOGAN DEAD. Well-Known Young Man Passes Away Suddenly. Mr. Thomas J. Hogan died yesterday af ternoon at 5:30 o'clock at his home at No. 4S Barnard street. The news of his death was quite a shock to his friends. Mr. Hogan had been il! for the las* several days, but had only been confined to his room for a short time. His illness was not considered serious and the announcement of his death was a great surprise to the many who knew' him. The leceased was a native of Ireland, hut came to Savannah about fifteen years ago and had since made this city his home. He was a man of splendid phy sique and took quite an interest in ath letic sports. Being of a jovial and genial nature he soon became well-known and popular. He was one of the principal mi mbers cf the football team of the Catholic Library Association, which made quite a record for itself several years ago. The deceased was a non-commissioned officer of the Irish Jasper Greens, of the local lodge of the Knights of the Royal Arch, and a member of Division No. 2 of the Ancient Order of Hibernians. He leaves a wife and one child, a little boy. The funeral will take place from No. 48 Barnard street at 5 o’clock this after noon. WRECK STORY' IV A BOTTLE. Picked Ip on the Bench Sienr Pal metto, Florida. A Floridian is the latest man to find n shipwreck story in a bottle—only this time the wreck wasn’t pulled off as fully as expected. S. G. Warren of Palmetto, picked up a few days ago, on the beach between Palmetto and Atwater, a sealed bottle in which was a stained piece of paper, on which was written the follow • Luzon, Philippine Island. Nov. 7, 1899 As the United States cruiser Charleston of the Asiatic fleet lies here off the rocks. I will slip this In a bottle that 1 had and throw it overboard as I get in a life boat. “L. Rowley. ••p, s.—lf this is found In Africa, please have it printed- in a paper. If it Is found in America, please have it printed in the Savannah News. I have no idea that it will float to America. * All on board.; good-bye." The bottle bore evidences of a rough voyage and might have come from most anywhere. The cork was worn off smooth. The note-was written in ink and with a care that would hardly mark a note written on a sinking ship. Shipwreck stories in -bottles are not un usual finds along the coast, and as a gen eral thing their authors are not partic ular what newspaper they arc published in. In- the present case the mail about to be wrecked wanted his last letter pul in good hands and chose the Morning News. WAITING LA FRANCE AGENT. New Fire Engine May Be Tested To day or To-morrow. The test of Savannah’s new fire engine has been delayed, awaiting the arrival of the representative of La France En gine Company. Judging from exterior ap pearances, however, Superintendent Ma guire and the men at headquarters are very well pleased with the new machine. It is guaranteed to throw 1,000 gallons p p r minute. It Is on the same pattern ns the big triple-bitch engine now at headquar ters, but has several modern improve ments. The new engine is entirely nickel plated. Notwithstanding the additional improvements it cost S7OO less than Its pre de-essor at headquarters. The test will probably be made to-day or to-morrow. NEW FATIGUE UNIFORMS.

Primarily everj’ man is a stomach. The whole body and brain are dependent for health and life upon the orderliness and completeness of the pro cesses which go on in the stomach and allied organs of digestion and nutrition. People who have been treated for dis ease of head, heart, lungs, liver, nerves or blood have often been treated in vain, until they began the use of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery.

F. Townsend, was most acceptably played last night by the Fleming Dramatic As sociation. The performance was for the benefit of the Sacred Heart Church, and took place at the Sacred Heart School Hall. As might be inferred from its name, the drama abounds in stirring scenes, war and Indian fights, alternating with the softer scenes of love-making, and the so ial life of a frontiei military post. ►Sacred Heart entertainments are always well attended, and that of last night was no exception to this rule. The audience filled the hall and showed a degree of ap pieciation that was warmer even than the weather. The love-making of Sophia and Capt. Wybert, in particular, excited their heartiest approbation. The cast of characters was as follows: Col Law 7 ton Fred Meyer Capt. Paul Wybert Harry Shea Corpl. Casey W. J. Riley Lieut. Cadwallader Warren Thorpe Signor Segura C. A. Riley Judge Biggs C. J. O’Neil Johnnie Bangs John Sullivan Retta, Segura’s niece .. Miss Agnes Bell Sophia, Lawton, daughter Miss Julia McNeal Mamie, Johnnie’s sister Miss Mena Werner Mrs. Biggs, the Judge’s wife Miss G. Brown At the conclusion of the entertainment refreshments, as usual, were served. AT THE THEATER. Clayton Cos. In “Darkest Russia'* and ••The Midnialit Masquerade*’ To-day. The Una Clayton Company presented “The Sultan’s Daughter” last night in a very acceptable manner. To-day “Dark est Russia” will be repeated at the mat inee, and to-night “The Midnight Mas* querade” will be presented. A complete set of new scenery for “Darkest Russia’’ was received yesterday, and will be used in the production of the play to-day. To-morrow night “Kelly’s Kids’’ will change the bill nt the Theater. Farc-e comedy is probably the most popular form of theatrical entertainment, because in addition to amusing the people, it gives them a chance to hear the newest and brightest humor of the hour, and ihe latest song hits. Farce comedy is elas tic and will allow of constant changes, and the introduction of new and .catchy material. And while the thread of the story is not broken it is dupable of being strengthened by the additions of the latest “stuff.” There is a great rivalry among j comedians and farceurs to be the first to introduce something new, and the liberty allowed them by the management insures the public something fresh every day. “Kelly’s Kids” is said to lx 1 no exception to the rule. It is a musical farce, built on the lines that have pleased. Mr. Wilbur Atkinson, manager of Jolly H. Guy Woodward, arrived in the city ! yesterday and is looking after the inter est of his company, which is booked for the week beginning Aug. 27. Hermann comes for one performance next Tuesday night in his exhibition of magic. Novelties in magic are as essen- I tial to success as in the field of drama, I and it is probably to this one fact that Hermann always presents something new and startling, something that starts the tongues to wagging in the cities he vis its, as well as 10 the dexterity with which these feats are performed that much of his phenomenal success is due. MORE SEA ISLAND COTTON. First Rale of the Florida Crop Re ceived Yesterduy. The first bole of Florida sea island cot ton was received yesterday by the A. Lefflcr Company. It came from E. A. Buckles, trustee, of Jasper, where a very fine grade of sea island is grown. The new bale was exhibited in the Cotton Ex -1 change. The bate weighed 330 pounds. The outlook for the sea Island cotton in Florida this season is reported to be fairly good. In many sections of the belt, how ever, the drought has got in its work, and as a result the crop will suffer home. Whether this will be enough to have any great effect on prices remains to be seen. In some quarters it is believed the hot weather has seriously damaged the crop. A Swell Colored Wedding. A swell wedding in colored society took place last night at the Congregational Church on Habersham street. It was the marriage of P. Edward Perry and Susie A. Johnson, both well known colored peo ple. The bride was attended by six bridesmaids, and with the groom’s six at tendants the bridai party nearly fllleu the aisles of the church. The ceremony was performed by the pastor before a large gathering. The groom is a well-known burber In the Masonic Temple building. Int on Epwortli Lean no Hally. The Epworth Leagues of the city will hold a league rally at Seventh Street Methodist Church to-morrow night. Prov ident R- J Davant and his council, have arranged a most Interes'lng programme. Several abort addresses will be made by prominent leaguers. The league* of the city are looking forward to the service with a great deal of pleasure* < THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY, AUGUST 23, 1000. [WEATHER STILL lIOT. Rut Rain aud With It Relief Pre dieteil for To-day. Despite the shower of the night before the heat yesterday showed little dimi nution. being only one degree less thin that of the previous day. The maximum ; was 99 degree** and occurred at 3 o’clock. i The minimum was 76 degrees, and was reached about 6:30 a. m. After the maximum was reached the mercury fell quite*rapidly, and in half an hour had dropped 6 degrees, it contin ued to fill, though slower, until nightfall. This lowered temperature together with j a pleasant breeze that sprang up in the late J afternoon, made last night comparative | ly the most comfortable for probably i the last week. The day showed a mean temperature of 88 degrees, a preponderance of 8 de grees above the normal. The rainfall of the night before amounted to only .14 of j an inch, which leaves a shortage for -the month of 4.85 inches, and for the year a ! shortage of 8.16 inches. The run of warm weather that has cul ! minated in the intense heat of the last few days has been of an almost steady | increase from the first of the month, on ly four days of the twenty-two showing j a maximum temperature of less than 90 j degrees, while of the remainder four have , registered 91. two 92, one 93, two 90. three I 97. four 99, one 100 and one 102. The state forecast for to-day is for lo cal rains and cooler weather. To-morrow, it is predicted, will be fnir. Light north winds may be expected. Only one prostration from the heat was reported at the barracks yesterday, a white man who was overcome in the morning on Broughton street, west. He recovered sufficiently, however, to go home* unassisted. LEFT FOR NORTH CAROLINA. Large Number of Savannnhlnn* on Southern’s Excursion. The midsummer excursion over the Southern Railway yesterday to the moun tain resorts of North Carolina was one of the largest of its kind that has been given by the Southern, and compares fa vorably with those given in former years, which were handled over the Florida Cen tral -and Peninsular and the Southern jointly. This is the more noticeable as an unusually large number of people have already gone away from the city, and this excursion is consideraby later than those run formerly. WILL ORG ANIZE NEXT W EEK. Notice* Sent Ont for Meeting of Union Station Company. I The Savannah Union Station Company will probably be organized next week. The I charter has been received and notices have been sent out to those interested to | attend a meeting for organization next week. Mr. J. Randolph Anderson, who went to Atlanta to secure the charter, is ill in Marietta, where he went to see his wife. Mr. Anderson fvas overcome by the heat in Atlanta Sunday. Reports received from him. however, state that he is doing very nicely. To Examine- Operator*. The Pennsylvania Railroad has recently established a rigid examination for tele graph operators. The following is a copy of the notice which has been posted in all the telegraph offices of the company. “In future telegraph students will not be permitted at any offire of this division without written permission, and the fol lowing requirements must be observed: “Applicants must be between the ages of 17 and 25 and of the male sex. “He must file a formal application, pass the required physical examination and an examination in sight and hearing. “An applicant who has been in the em ploy of another party shall fill up and sign the authority to furnish personal re cord on the letter of inquiry; an applicant who has not been previously employed must furnish references as to character, morals, etc. “He must have sufficient education and intelligence to perform the work for which he is employed, be of gentlemanly ap pearance and good address.
