OYSTER SEASON NOT YET ON.

For thou* who hold to the rule that oysters are palatable during every month whose orthography contains an "r." the oyster aeuiion I* now on. This rule, how ever, la no! followed Yu the letter In Sa vannah. The average Savannah!.in, whoae appre ciation of the toothsome bivalve Is second to none, holds that the season for the ovster Is Indicated by the atate of the thermometer rather th.in by any Web ale rlan rule of letters. He Is Inclined to hold that the oyster season does not ar rive until the mercury ceases to rise above 90, with monotonous regularity, and for Ihe proper development for gas tronomic purpose* of the luscious bivalve be prefers a temperature ranging down ward to Ihe seventies, at least. In fact, there are many people In this particular portion of the moral vineyard who dis avow Ihe rule of "r" as applied to oys ters and who eliminate September alto gether as an oyster month, preferring to wait until the middle of October before partaking of this delicacy. Inquiry at the City Market yesterday re vealed the fact that there was not an oyster for solo and the marketmen to whom the queries were put seemed at a loss to establish any connection between the fact that the day was Sepl. 1 and that according to Ihe rule of R, as enter prising market dealers they should have had oysters for their customers. It was Slated that there would probably be few oysters In this week, but the general con sensus of opinion sis that It was too hot for oysters and that there would be no de man for the bivalve* until the middle of the month at least. Some of the restau rant keepers stated that they expected 10 receive their first supplies of oysters for the season thla week, but remarked that they expected no demand for them until cooler weather set In. A grexi many people are of the opinion that the oyster remains poor and fl tbby until cold weather sets In and that he. she or It then begins to take on fat, which process Is greatly assisted by rains suffi cient to bring the slime and detritus from the upper water course* upon which the oyster thrives. An old resilient of Isle of Hope, lO Whom this view was mention ed. however, said that it was all non aetiae. "Oysters are good at any season of the jtsr," he declared, "but It Is practically impossible to keep them In hot weather, so It does not pay to bring them to mar ket." However, the other view Is more eom monly held. There iisi ie-ee ,-viiaidei able discussion of recent years of the possible extinction of the oyster In thesa waters because of the unrestricted access to the natural beds and the fact that the laws afford but little protection to those <n gnged In the propagation of the oyster. The marketmen, to whom this supposition was mentioned, hows-ver, hooted at the Idea and declared that the supply was m mpte for all local need*, notwithstanding the heavy inroads made upon the beds during the last two or three seasons by the inning faelork* at Thunderbolt, \Vll mln.ion and elsewhere In the county. •Tie supply of oysters thla season will b.. ample." said Mr. Ilarbee. of Barbee U Tardy at Isle of Hope. "The bed* mty laic been cleamsl out In the near vicin ity of the factories, but there will be no lack of supply for the local market. The oystermen have gone out to the lusts in their boats, and w 111 doubt lest, begin send ing In their supplies In a day or two. Tuere will he no demand, however, un til the weather cools off a bit.” While the local oyster doe* not enjoy Ihe high esteem accorded by epicures to lha Blue Points. Sadie Rocks. Mobile Plsnts and other famous varieties. It I * nevertheless a sweet and toothsome arti cle, ami not- to tie despised when properly served up In n stew or pan roast, or some other of the doxen or more methods known fo the culinary art, and Its appearance op the market under favorable conditions of weather will be welcomed by numerous admirers. OUTLOOK FOR A LET-l'P. The Hot Weather I* Almnat Over and I omlorlnhlr Day* nt llnml. September opened with the outlook for a let-up In the high temperature* that characterized August. The maximum for the day occurred at noon, and was only 87 degree*. The mtplmum, which was at 6a. m.. was 71 degree*. The rainfall between <1 o'clock In tb* morning and * o'clock at night, was 1.73 Inches. If the present month l* to be Judged by September of last year, the hot weather Is about over, and a long line of bright and comparatively comfortable duys ai hand. During last September only seven times did the thermometer reach 9 de grees or over, and the highest! point reached, IN. occurred comparatively early In the month. On one day. the 17th. the highest point reached was only 73 de grees. The minimum for the mot th was U degrees, and occurred on the 27th. The average mean for each day was 76.4 de sire##. I rained only four times, on the 16th 17th. llth. and 21et. and the total amoum of the precipitation was 4.22 Inches.

Some Individual amused himself and an gered the superintendent and the firemen of the northern section of She depart ment by turning In an alarm from box 12. at Broughton and Jefferson streets, at 1 o'clock this morning. Fire Companies 1, 2 and 2 responded, only to find that here was not even a lighted match in the neighborhood of the box which hail been sounded. The only excitement created sprang up with the advent of the apparatus. A man who was near the box at Ihe time the alarm was turned In said he had seen a pair of while boya break the glass and spring Ihe lever. They had run away down Jefferson street before he could apprehend them. or. Indeed, before he was assured that there was not good reason for turning In the alarm. It Is believed the young rascals will be caught Hupt. Maguire stated that the hoi was turned In improperly more often that any other of the system, although It Is located on a murh-used thoroughfare, and ought to he almost all the time un der the eye* of Hie police.
