Crcditaßle Entertainment Given Be
fore u Fair Audience.
Herrmann, the masdc'ian, gave a very
creditable entertainment at the Theater
last night. The gallery crowd was a good
one. and there was a fair crowd in the
parquet. While Herrmann’s display of
legerdemain is not quite up to the work
done by his famous uncle, his feats are
quite remarkable, and a number of new
ones was introduced. His specialties wore
exceptionally good. A much enjoyed
feature of the show was the musical
numbers rendered by the five Nosses, who
are adepts on a number of stringed and
wind instruments.
This afternoon the. Woodward-Warren
Company will resume its engagement,
presenting “Mr. Young of Utah,” for the
matinee and to-night the English- melo
drama. "The Ticket-of-Leave-Man.” This
play will be remembered by the older the
ater patrons, as having been in the re
pertoire of the late William J. Florence
and is considered one of the best of Eng
lish dramas.
INTERVENING FOR INSURANCE.
National Board of Marino I'nder
writem Hnntn Protection.
Two interventions were filed in the Uni
ted States District Court yesterday in the
matter of the libeled bark Carl von Do
bcln and hr-t* cargo. The first was by the
National Board of Marine Underwriters,
v/hieh hold-s the insurance on the cargo,
and the other by various citizens of
Brunswick, for supplies furnished the of
ficers and cretv of the bark.
The intervention of the Board of Under
writers is for $15,000, *and that for sup
plies for $1.5v0. Mr. W. K. Leaken repre
sents the Ir.tervenor in the first case, and
Mr .Leaken and' Mr. Owens Johnson, of
Brunswick, the intervenors in the second
case.
The libellants, the South Atlantic Tow

an application for an order of sale of the
berk and cargo.
CITY BREVITIES.
There were only a few’ arreste by the
police yesterday, and no one of the pris
oners was charged with any serious of
fense .
Jack Mortimer, an evangelist, who has
been for several months in Atlanta, and
later in Macon, is in the city and will
conduct street services nightly for some
time to come. In Atlanta he claims that
he was badly treated, being arrested some
seventeen times. This, he alleges, was
through the instigation of some of the
people who thought and said that he was
on agnostic. This charge, he says, is
without foundation, and he desires no bet
ter chance to prove it than that people
will come to his services.
They Were Great fhmiio Here.
The Cedar Rapids (la.) Record has this
to say of two regiments well known in
Savannah:
As vt ry one knows by this time. Gov.
Leslie M. Shaw’ reviewed the Forty-ninth
Regiment at Camp Kellogg Tuesday af
ternoon.
A familiar tune, played by the Rcgf
m ntal band during the encampment, and,
one wh ch invariibly brought cut a round
cf cheers from the boys, was “Dixie.”
Th's tune is sacred to the m-mory of the
Fourth Virginia in the hearts of the boys
of ti e Forty-ninth. The friendship exist
ing b tween the e regiments is similar
to that lo\a.ty and en'husiam shared
years ago by the crack companies of the
stale—the Governor’s Grays, cf Dubuque,
aid Company C, of O dar Rapids. When
the regiment went into camp at Jack
fonville the Fourth Virginia we;c assign
ed to a place beyond the lowa regiment,
the only approach being through a boggy
swamp. Col. Dows and his regiment w*-re
in camp first, and immediately gave or
ders that uron the approich of their
neighbors the Ines of the Forty-ninth
were to he opened. The Fourth Virginias
arrived one dark night, and it happened
that ('apt. Jaeggl was the offl mr who
went to them and off r the unusual
court- sy cf a passage through their lines
Their commanding officer inquired th*-
Colonel’s name of the Forty-nn'h, and
immediately a mighty che r went up fur
the lowa man and his regiment. From
that time the greatest friercDhip existed
between G>e Northern and Southern boys,
the Virginia regiment, sharing with the
Forty-ninth the enthusiasm felt for Col
onel Dow.. Tuesday evening when
the hand marched through the enmp
playing “Dixie" with a hand of hoys
• hon ing and cheering, an officer of the
For . -ninth said with deep emotion: “Tire
dear old Fourth Virginia! bless their
hearts."

AVOIDED THE SNAKE.
Bnt I/. R. Aiken Had Hl* Back Seri
ously Hurt.
Brunswick, Ga., Aug. 28.—R. L. Aiken,
familiarly known as “Doc.” one of the
wealthiest timber men and turpentine
operators in South Georgia, was seriously
injured in a peculiar manner this after
noon. Aiken lives at Mount Pleasant, a
station on the Southern Railway about
thirty miles from Brunswick, and his land
ed interests and turpentine farms cover
the surrounding country for miles, and
embrace Grangerville, another Southern
station.
About 5 o’clock Aiken was going from
Grangerville to Mount Pleasant. He was
seated on the platform at the front end
of a lever hand car be’ongyig to one of
the Southern’s section foremen. The car
was being propelled at rapid speed by
able-bodied section hands, and while at its
greatest rapidity, Aiken espied a huge rat
tlesnake coiled in the center of the rail
road track.
The snake was striking in every direc
tion, and Aiken realizing that he was
being borne directly on to the snake,
drew his dangling feet nnd legs up quickly
to escape the reptile’s fangs. This act
threw' his body backward and directly un
der the swaying lever, which came dow r n
with terrible and crushing force upon his
back. He was knocked 1/om the car,
and, w’hiie suffering intensely, was cared
for until the down train for Brunswick
arrived about 7 o’clock. The snake escaped
while attention was being given the in
jured man.
While the railroad people were in no
way to blame for the unfortunate acci
dent. they are everything possible
to relieve Mr. Aiktn. General Agent Cand
1* r was wired, and when the train ar
rived personally superintended Mr.
Aiken’s removal to the Oglethorpe* Hotel,
where he is attended by Dr. Hugh Bur
forel, the Southern’s surgeon. Dr. A. C.
Blain and Dr. G. W. Blanton. Mr. Aiken
is one of the strongest men financially in
this sretion, and holds a very high place
in the esteem of the people. The accident
will be generally deplored by everyone
around here when mws of it gets out.
Later—At midnight Aiken was resting
easily, attended by the physicians. Super
vise r Hickson of the Southern, and his
Iriends. W. A. Mellette and John Humph,
the last thhee having accompanied him
from Mt. Pleasant. Mr. Mallette say3
that when Aiken was struck by the lever
he was thrown into the middle of the
track. The snake writhed, hissing, away,
while the men sprang to Aiken'e assist
ance, the car having run up on Aiken's
body.
The attending physicians announced at
midnight their belief that Aiken will re
cover.

Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady

It used to be considered that only urinary
