GEORGIA AND FLORIDA
AX ICO A OCX A ST.
Americus Times-Recorder: The only
moon theory that benefits farmers is
that of holding their club meeting, and
institutes at night. Just before or just
after full moon. When a man has to
travel several miles to a meeting and
the same number of miles back home
after nightfal], a big round full moon
is a good thing to have as a compan
ion.
PROVE IT OR RETRACT.
Quitman Advertiser: Sam Jones of
fered some good advice to Dr. Brough
ton in the Saturday Journal when he
advised the doctor to prove his utter
ances in regard to the Technological
School or else retract them. This the
doctor should speedily do.
ANOTHER OX DR. BROCGHTOX.
Thomaevllle Times-Enterprise: And
now Dr. Broughton is accused of pla
giarism. He asks very earnestly that
the press do not deal with this mat
ter. It is to be hoped that the press
will deal with it Just as fully as they
did Dr. Broughton's charges
the Technological school.
GOOD. ADVERTISING.
Brunswick Journal: Splendid adver
tising for the Tech. -Can't someone else
knock it? Probably it might bring an
other little wad from Gotham.
FOR PECAN GROVES.
Clapp farm, near Brunswick, has
been sold by the owner to T. J. Net
tleton of New York. Mr. Nettleton
seems to think that the pecan industry
is fast growing in this section and it
may l>e that he will plant on the farm
hundreds of trees and engage exten
sively in this industry.
HOME FOR INCURABLES.
The first work on what is planned
to be a SIOO,OOO hospital for the in
curables, to be erected in Atlanta will
commence within the next few weeks.
The first building will only be a mod
est two-story structure to meet urgent
demands, but as fast as funds can be
procured the additions will be made
until the institution will come up to
the plans outlined for one of the finest
hospitals in the country.
RARROOM A GOOD PLACE.
Macon News: Savannah had a bat
tle in a barroom. If there must be bat
tles, that's a good place for them.
FLORIDA.
FOR SHERIFF AND CLERK.
A case that has long agitated Tampa
la closed, in the lower court, at least.
Judge Wall handed down a decision
In the mandamus suit of W. T. Lesley,
sheriff, and M. F. McKay, clerk of the
Criminal Court, against the County
Commissioners, to compel that body to
pay to Lesley and McKay the half of
their fees which the board has been
holding, to liquidate the alleged over
charges shown in the Knott report.
Judge Wall's decision was in favor of
the complainants, and a mandamus
has been issued compelling the com
missioners to give Sheriff Lesley and
Clerk McKav their money.
LEE WAS DROWNED.
A Norwegian by the name of Lee
•was drowned at Fort Myers Tuesday.
|H3 had been spending several days
In town with Frank Johnson, having
come up in the latter’s sloop Little
Nelley, from Mound Key. Lee had
hoisted sail to leave, and was seen
by several people at the Riverside
boarding house to shove off from the
dock, when he fell into the water.
TAMPA’S CUSTOMS HEAVY.
The total collections of the Tampa
Custom House for the twelve months
were $1,300,000. This is the top-notch
figure yet attained, and places Tampa
a little higher on the roll of American
ports of entry. For the past two years
the collections have been barely a
million, and the handsome increase
during the fiscal year Just expired is
gratifying to Tampa.
TO REVISE STATUTES.
The Governor has appointed a com
mittee or board of three well known
lawyers to revise the statutes of Flor
ida in accordance with an act pass
ed by the late Legislature. Those
named on the board are: Hon. Ben
jamin S. Liddon of Marianna; Hon.
Thomas F. West of Milton, Hon. J. C.
B. Koonce of Summerville.
BULLOCK HASN’T DECIDED.
Gen. Robert Bullock of Marlon coun
ty has not yet decided to enter the
gubernatorial race. He says that the
announcement made several days ago
tvas not authorised. In a letter to
the Metropolis, in reply to a request
for a photograph, Gen. Bullock, among
other things, says: "From an unau
thorised announcement of my candi
dacy for Governor I saw in the Me
tropolis, made by an Ocala correspon
dent, you had a perfect right to as-,
sume I was a candidate, and if I was
I would take great pleasure In sending
you my picture. My candidacy may
be regarded a remote possibility. A
few more unfair cartoons by the
Times-Union might stimulate my am
bltiontothe candidacy point. I have
never sought a political office, and it
is now most too late to enter that
business. If I should be, however, it
will be when the demand of the peo
ple to that end is more manifest than
at present.”
CELEBRATION AT EUSTI9.
Eustis began last April to plan the
programme for an elaborate Fourth
of July celebration. Gov. Jennings
will be the orator of the day. Among
other speakers will be Hon. E H. Mote,
Bishop Gray and Prof. B. F. Marsh.
TO ALL COMPILERS
OF CONFEDERATE ROSTERS.
Atlanta, July 2. The officers
designated by the Governors of South
ern states to co-operate with Gen.
Ainsworth, chief of Record and Pen
sion Office, in securing complete ros
ters of the officers and enlisted men
of the Union and Confederate armies,
in the War Between the States, are
invited to meet in the state library
In the city of Atlanta, at 10 o'clock
on Monday, the 20th of July, for tire
purpose of conferring and agreeing on
some uniform plan of procedure in the
prosecution of their work. The most
absolute accuracy possible in the com
pilation and publication of these ros
ters is desirable, to the end that no In
justice be done any soldier of the
South. The name and a brief mili
tary history of every officer and man
who was in the Confederate army
or navy should appear in the rosters
to be published by the Secretary of
War at Washington, and the name
of every impostor should be excluded.
Owing to the loss or destruction of
many of the original rosters during
the progress and since the close of
the war our task Is difficult, and un
less extraordinary effort is made to
establish correct copies of lost rolls
an# to imperfect ones now in
existence, the publication to be made
will possess but little value, and will
do injustice to many gallant soldiers.
Hence the undersigned, designated by
the Governors of their respective
states to co-operate with Gen. Ains
worth in his important work, realiz
ing the importance of concert of ac
tion. to the end that satisfactory re
sult* may be reached, earnestly In
vite their coworkers in the other
Southern states to meet for conference
and interchange of idea*, at the time
and place named above.
B. F. Dixon. State Auditor of North
Carolina; Thomas M. Owen, Director
Department Archives and History,
Alabama; Allen D. Candler, Compiler
of State Records, Georgia.

SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY. .JULY 3. 1903.
MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS OF
| • SHIPS AND SHIPPING.
The I ppe r Wharves Coming Into
Prominence—Ship's Tnllor—Ship.
building Statistics—Of Interest to
Shippers.
The upper wharves In the vicinity
j of the Seaboard Air Line bridge are
: steadily coming into prominence as
among the most important points along
the river. It is the manufactories
that are adding to that part of the
harbor, for vessels are not only load
! ed there, but many of those arriving
| have cargo consigned to some of the
mills or factories above town.
The Ship’s Tnllor.
Sailors are fastidious in the matter
of their clothes, and usually upon their
arrival in port they must engage the
services of a tailor. It is not every
one who can visit the tailor as often
as the average sailor does, and at the
same cost. The captain of the vessel
usually authorize." the tailor to give
to each sailor a “line of credit” and
this they usually take entirely up. The
ship's tailor is a Jolly chap as a rule,
and always throws his establishment
open to the sailors, where they receive
courteous treatment and have their
wants filled. Probably the best returns
from expenditures of a sailor in port
are from w-hat he invests in apparel.
Pnth Shipbuilding.
Shipbuilding at Bath. Me., for the
past six months has held up to the
average, and prospects for the remaind
er of the year appear much brighter.
Since Jan. 1 there have been launched
from yards in Bath district four barges
with a total gross tonnage of 6,324
and nine schooners with a tonnage of
t 0,201, making the total tonnage
launched thus far 16,525. For a cor
responding period in 1902 there were
launched five schooners with a total
tonnage of 6,912, two barges of 3,833
tons, one ship of 3,381 tons, one yacht of
538 tons, one tug of 110 tons, and two
steamers aggregating 2,304 tons, mak
ing a total of 17,078 tons launched for
six months. There have been thirteen
vessels launched this year, against
eleven in the corresponding period last
year; but tonnage this year has thus
far fallen 553 tons below that of a year
ago.
In sail tonnage business was light
in all departments. There continues
a steady inquiry for large vessels suit
able for case oil and general cargo to
the Far East and Australia, and rates
l'or the same are strong. Tonnage is
also wanted for lumber to South Amer
ican ports and general cargo, coal, etc.,
to the West Indies. In the coastwise
lumber trade rates continue strong and
vessels In steady, moderate request.
Coal freights are unchanged. Steam
tonnage is in demand for timber and
deals to United Kingdom and conti*
nent and rates continue firm. In the
grain, cotton and general cargo trades
the inquiry is light and rates nominal.
West India time contract steamers are
in demand and rates are firm on the
basis of 3s 3d for short periods.—Jour
nal of Commerce.
