The management of the Savannah team I ,s made a number of' improvements In ~u , Bolton Street Park, where the gume j-j ] 3e played, that will meet with the . qualified approval of the spectators. The field of play will be roped off, so that th orr ran be no interference with the/ movements of the teams by spectators ,-owding into the field, and, as an addi tional safeguard there will be an ample tail of police to see that the best of or der is kept. Mr. Max If. Neuberger, who has been one 0 f the hardest workers in the interest of the game, has secured from the fol lowing ilrms a promise that their places of business will be closed to-day at 1 o'clock in order that their employes may it,.aid the gume: Messrs.

Found Head in Bed at Tyliee. William Smith, a white man 45 years of age, was found dead in his bed, at the Naylor House, on Tybee Island, yester day morning, with two ugly wounds In his head. Coroner Goette was notified of the death, and took charge of the remains. From all accounts It would appear that Smith was knocked down by another white man named Callow at Fort Screven Sunday night. The matter will be thor -hly Investigated to-day by the county 1 hirers, and the arrest of Gallow will Ui .'l likely follow. Smith was employed at the new govern ment quarters on the isl and as a brick ni on, while Gallow worked at the same pl i. eas a carpenter. The men were eat bg supper Sunday night, when Gallow a,l 'l Smith became engaged In a dispute " r some trivial matter. Smith had been drinking, and Gallow struck him over the h !, it is said, with a water pitcher, making two ugly wounds. Smith left the room and nothing more was thought "f the affair until he was found, dead. 'The men employed on the works sleep •’Tether in one room, and when Smith <ll not get up y< slerday morning some of them tried to push , him out of bed. The sheets were covered with blood and further investigation showed' that the bricklayer was dead. It was then that *’■" wounds In hlf head were discovered ; ' I Coroner Goette was called In. The dy was brought to the city In the morn ' c and a hurried examination was made f the wounds. It was found that one of the blows had caused a fracture of the £kull and it may be that Dr. Keller will . bold a |xwt-mort< m examination to-day, The carpenter, Gallow, has not been Placed under arrest yet, but may be taken m charge to-day. , 'mith came to Savannah about two months ago from New York II Is !!l1 Ihut his bro her is an officer In the . department In New York, .

Yours tr P*y. J. R. YOUNG. WEDDINGS AND PROSPERITY. A Snbtle Connection Retween the Two Shown by Statistics. During the year 1900, that expired in noise and glory at midnight last night, there were united in the holy bonds of matrimony, within the confines of Chat ham county, just 1,592 holders of tickets in that lottery. And It wasn’t a very good year for weddings, either. From 9 o'clock on the morning of Jan. 1 to 6 o’clock on the afternoon of Dec. 31, 1900, Clerk Keilhach, of the Court of Ofdinary, Issued 796 marriage licensee. This was a smaller number than was Is sued for any year since 1897, when 790 couples were given legal permission to try their luck. It has been said that the number of marriages Is In quite constant proportion to the prosperity of the community, be ing large in years when business is good and the people flourishing and becoming relatively small when an era of hard times begins to have fts effects. The marriage expert can figure out some such conclusion from the statistics that are preserved in the office of the clerk of the Court of Ordinary. In 1892, when the country was in a condition reasonably prosperous, there were Issued 722 mar riage licenses. In 1893, when the hard times began to make themselves felt, the number of licenses fell to 669. It was 666 in 1894, 638 in 1895 and 689 in 1896. In 1897, when returning prosperity made a man willing to give some few hostages to for tune, the number of licenses issued jumped to 790, and in 1897, when the tide of good times had reached its flood, the number reached 826. That number is the highest ever reached in Chatham county. In 1899 there were 825 mar riage licenses issued, and in 1900, 796. The large number of marriages in 1898 has been explained by saying that many couples had postponed their nuptials until the re turn of good times, and these back num bers were added to the events that would have been pulled off at any rate. For two years now the month of April has led in the number of marriajje li censes issued. In 1900, Clerk Kell bach is sued ninety-five licenses, an average of more than three a day, during the month April. In 1899, he Isused eighty-seven licenses during the same month. In both years December ran Afpril a close second, there being seventy-seven licenses In that month of 1900 and ieighty-two in 1899. Theories seem rather unable to cope with this situation of affairs and to ac count for the preference exhibited by the bridal couples for these months of the year. In April it may be that the In fluence of the spring makes itself felt and in December the approach of the Christ man season, with its practice of giving, possibly induces the young woman to give herself. But this .is surmise. To one who has had no experience with such things, May would seem to be as nice a month to get married in as April or any other, and yet during May of last year but fifty two licenses to wed were issued. This was the smallest number for any month during the entire year. It Is rather curious to note that during the past year the number of licenses is sued to white couples was increased by seven over that of the preceding year, while the number issued to negroes was decreased by thirty-six. Still though the number of negro marriages was far in excess of the marriage of whites, there being 505 of the former to 291 of the lat ter. This apparent advantage Is over come by the divorces, wherein the ne groes are parties about three times as often as their white neighbors. The following is a tabulated statement of the number of licenses Issued for each month of the year 1900, to white and col ored couples, wLth the totals for each month and for each race and for the year: White. Colored. Total. January 32 40 72 February 25 4? 68 March 17 43 60 April 37 58 95 May 11 41 52 June 24 45 69 July £7 43 70 August 22 38 60 September 18 35 53 October 18 37 55 November 27 38 65 December 33 44 77 291 505 796 It is rather remarkable that the num ber of licenses Issued to white couples during the year 1898 was the same as that for the year 1900. On the marriage and prosperity theory,, this is taken to mean that 1900 was just as prosperous a year for Bavannah as was 1898. The only trou ble about this view Is that the actual facts show It to have been a good deal more so. cincis MAN UNDECIDED. Sells-Gray People Have Reached No Conclusion ns Y r et. Mr. William Sells of the Sells-Gray cir cus aggregation, said last night that no decision had yet been reached as to where his show would put up for the winter. The circus man was evidently ruffled about' something and was quite curt. He did not seem desirous of giving out too much Information on the subject, If he really had any to give. At first Mr. Sells said that he wanted to take a rest, 'but a moment later re considered a'nd announced that there were no new developments. The circus pro prietor stated that Mr. Stafford, who gave out the Interview to the Morning News upon the arrival of the aggrega tion had left the city for home. It Is understood that the circus people have been endeavoring to get the site where the government hospital buildings are located. MILITARY RAv.li TO-NIGHT.

SHOT THROUGH THE HEART AS HE ENTERED HIS HOME. Coroner’* Jury Charge* Alfred Mi chael With the Murler—Social At tn i r Narrowly Missed Serin* End. Young Lady’s Dress Caught Fire, But Presence of Mind of Young .lien Saved Her—Valdosta's Busy Season—s49,ooo In Dividends to Be Turned Loose. Valdosta, Dec. 31.—A negro named Leah Davis was shot and killed about 10 o'clock Saturday night while entertlng his home in the southern part of the city. The shooting is said to have been done by an other negro named Alfred Michael, and the coroner's jury to-day returned an inquest charging him with the murder. It seems that Michael was at Davis' house when he arrived there after his day’s work at the Atlantic, Valdosta and Western depot. As Davis entered the door, ho was shot through the heart, dy ing instantly. Michael skipped out and has not been seen since. There was con siderable feeling among the colored peo ple over the killing, as the dead negro is said to have been a quiet, peaceable man. One of the most brilliant of the social functions of thff Christmas season came near having a very serious ending Sat urday night. The affair was tendered by Miss Neta Fender to her friends, and the evening was a delightful one. Just be fore the guests departed for their homes, the dress worn by Miss Cator of For syth, caught on fire and spread into a blaze. Miss Cator was talking to several young men at the time and was stand ing with her back to the fire. She wore an organdy dress and be/cre any one noticed It, the young lady was covered with flames. The young men, with re markable presence of mind, pulled oft their coats and threw them around ner, smothering the flames without the least injury to the young lady, though the young men suffered some burns on their handts. The business of the merchants here has been the heaviest ever known for a Christmas season. Thousands of shoppers have come here from all sections and the trade has been very heavy. On next Tuesday a dozen or more local corpora tions will turn loose their annual and semi-annual dividends, and these will amount to probably $40,000. There are twenty-three , Incorporated 1 enterprises he.re.and every one of them pays dividends every year. The present year Is said to have been a very successful one with all of the merchants, as well as other en terprises. A letter received here Friday from El Paso, Tex., brought news of the death of Mr. John G. Williams, formerly of this city. Mr. Williams’ death "was due to an operation which was performed on Nov. 28, death ensuing on Dec. 12. He was en gaged as bookkeeper for the Candelaria Mining Company, but formerly occupied a similar position with silver mines at San Luis Potosi, Mexico. He was a son of Mr. F. S. Williams of Bryan county, and brother of Fillmore Williams of Savan nah, and Mesdames C. C. Brantley and B. G. Lastinger of this city. IIHOKE UMBRELLA OVER HUSBAND. Muscular Woman Got in Some Good Ones on Her Sworn Protector. A rather fine looking and muscular wo man created a sensation in the vicinity of the Cily Market early yesterday afternoon by breaking her umbrella over a man of rather small stature. The woman’s anger appeared to be up In earnest and after demolishing her sun shade she started in to use nature’s weapons. The man made very little resistance and seemed to re alize that It would be wise to take his medicine. A drowd gathered, and the attention of Patrolman Godbold was attracted. Even after she had been placed under arrest the woman wanted to continue the as sault. Her victim proved to be her hus band. Godbold is a powerful man, but it required all of his strength to prevent the angered female from repeating the knock out blows. After she had been placed in the patrol wagon she made for her hus band again and City Detective Murphy had to go to the station house with Sally port Officer Lange to prevent any further trouble. The woman had evidently been drink ing and was in no mood to be trifled with. She stated that her name is Mrs. J. F. Seheeler and that she was the wife of the man she had assaulted. In the meantime the complainant was in the desk sergeant's office with several bruises on his face. He told a Morning News representative his story and seemed to be thoroughly in awe of the woman who, he declared, could whip any two men. Seheeler says that he is a conductor and that he came to ■Savannah with his wife from. Richmond, Va., shortly before dhristmas to accept a position with the Seaboard Air Line. He and his wife boarded at 323 Perry street, west, and the first serious trouble since their arrival In this city occurred yesterday. "I saw two letters to other men that my wife wrote this morning and I asked her about them. She sailed into me in earnest and then began drinking. She is a heavy drinker and it is not the first time that she has thrashed me. I would not strike a woman, anyway, but to have hit her would have only made it all the worse for me. I have charged her with being drunk and disorderly and beating me on the street, and I hope that the courts will put her where she can't beat me any more.” The case against the woman will be heard by Judge Hartridge at this morn ing's session of Police Court and promises to be rich, rare and racy. HAD A SMALL DOCKET, Only Twenty Prisoners Before .Indite Hartridge In Police Court. There were only twenty prisoners before Judge Hartridge at yesterday morning’s session of Police Court, quite a small number for a Monday morning docket.

Destitute Family Discovered In a Hut on Buck Hammock. The residents of Tybee are much inter ested iiydhe condition of a family, con sisting/of a mother and five or six chil dren, giving on Buck Hammock in a very destitute condition. While the whereabouts, though not the condition of the family has been 'known to some of the islanders Cor some time, it was not brought prominently before the notice of the public until Christmas Day. On thfit festival the Misses Schenk at Ft. Screven, decided to give a Christ mas tree for the benefit of the children on the island, and sent out Sergt. O’Don nell to make the Invitations. During his rounds the sergeant was told of the fam ily on Buck Hammock, and went there to ask them to the celebration. He found them living in a little tumbled-down shanty, rudely thatched with palmetto leaves, and with hardly a one of ,the ne cessities of life. The children, themselves, he found to be in a semi-wild state, run ning away at the sight of him, and hid ing themselves in the woods from behind the trees of which they cautiously peered at him, only to fly still further away whenever he attempted to approach them. They were practically without clothes; only a few rags, the remains of clothing, preventing them from being entirely nude. Inquiry developed the fact that these children and their mother have been subsisting for the last several months on just such food, as oysters and fish, as they could secure on the Hammock, and In all that time they have had so little Intercourse with civilization as o have reached their present state of al most savagery. The fahter of the children was for a time employed as a bricklayer at the fort, and had his family living In a cot tage near the scene Of his labors. His ®'ork at the fort finished he went away, and seemingly left his family to shift for itself. They being unable to help them selves on the Island, went across to the hammock several months ago and have been living there ever since. The father Is thought to be now in Macon. As soon as tho matter had been re ported at the fort by Sergt. O’Donnell, the ladies there interested themselves In the unfortunates and sent to them a lib eral supply of clothing and other neces sities. Mayor J. G. Butler, who has been in formed of the condition of the unfortu nates, has also interested himself in their behalf, and will make them a visit within a day or two to get at first hand their needs, when he will lay the matter be fore the County Comsissioners, and ask that some relief be given. He intended to go to the Island Sunday, but was pre vented by the bad weather. Buck Hammock is situated to the south of Tybee Island, from which It Is separat ed by Tybee creek. It'is an exception ally lonesome place, and is rarely visited, except by fishermen, who make only short stays there. FOR MILITARY ADMINISTRATION.

The writer of the following letter was secretary of the Fair of the Industrial Association of Georgia that was held in Savannah in 1870. it was undoubtedly the greatest fair ever held In the state, with the exception of the national fair that was held in Atlanta. It was not a financial success, but it did more to bring Savannah into notice than any other thing that has been undertaken by her citizens since. The letter is a very encouraging one, as it indicate® that people outside of this city are taking an interest in the fair. Buford, Ga., Dec. 29.—C01. J. H. Eetlll: My Dear Sir—With much pleasure I have noticed the reported action of the Execu tive Committee of the State Agricultural Society in locating the next annual ex position of the agricultural and mechani cal products ami the general resources of Georgia at the city of Savannah, the great entry port of our Empire State and of the South Atlantic section of our country. After reading this announcement my memory brought up many fond recollec tions of Savannah, where, in years gone by, I lived and labored most agreeably with yourself and others, in efforts to stimulate into active play the energies of our people and in calling their atten tion to the unlimited possibilities of our resourceful section. No effort made by our spirited people has, in my Judgment, been blessed with fuller fruition than the exposition held at Savannah In the year 1870. In every respect it was a splendid exhibition of the indomitable courage, enterprise and spirit of the good people of Savannah and of our fellow citizens throughout Southern and Middle .Georgia. You. will recall the labor, the anxiety and earnest efforts of 'thou® who, with yourself, constituted the executive board that carried out to completion the con ception of that first exposition held In our Southland after the desolation of an unparalleled Civil War had left us noth ing much but our climate, our generous soil, our honor and our courage. I recall the form and tho features of our first president, Mr. Emanuel Heldt, and of his successor, that noble type of man hood. Mr. George S. Owens. There comes before me, one T our most active work ers. Mr. A. McC. Duncan, who in sea son and out of season, was my right arm of advice and l execution; of your own self, ever ready with the columns of your far-reaching journal, and your good Judg ment, to press the enterprise to success ful completion. I recall ithe handsome of Capt. John W. Anderson and John Chisholm, the gay chevaliers, as they managed the grandest ball ever given on the seashores of Georgia, and of the late Maj. Harry Bryan, who grieved over the deficit in the treasurer's cash box. Some of these worthies have since thpn gone away from the living to tne golden shore of eternity, but others re main, and the spirit of the fathers re mains in Savannah, the legacy of their noble children. I know your great and good people will not and cannot fall. Without assuming to be a prophet, I now predict that the Georgia State Fair, held' in Savannah in the fail of 1901, will be the most com plete and perfect exposition of- our re sources. and of the products and resources of the South Atlantic states thut has yet been held In all of Dixie. In any way, that I may bo enabled to contribute to this desirable end, be as sured I am at your eervice. and a-t the command of our good' people In Savan nah. With sincere good wishes, I am as ever, your friend. Henry D. Capers. GAVE ALL TO HIS DAUGHTER. Will of the Late Patrick Tuberdy Probated In Common Form.
