It takes about $1,400 a day to run

Senators and legislators receive $4 pet

tho two branches, totals up $109. Then
tho chaplains, doorkeepers, messan
gers, porters and pages run the figure
up considerably. The mileage makes
the total about $1,400 a day. If Itthlu
water Is furnished throughout the

continues as strong as for the past

Senator Camp was called to preside
over the deliberations of the senate for
a short while Monday. It waa line sail

upon shoals.
Local senate bills came up for a third
reading. One of Senator Camp's was
reached. The orthodox formula In put

“All favorable to the passage of this
bill will rise and stand until counted."
Senator Camp was so absorbed In his
measure that he forget the formula. He
said;
"All favoring this bill will signify It
by saying aye—no, I mean rise—stand

Then another measure of his came

FIREAU
CREATED A PANIC
All Aboard Were Saved But
Vessel Was De
stroyed.
Savannah, Oa., July 1$.—A Ore whloh
broke out In the steamship Allegheny,
Captain Freeman, Merchants and
Miners’ Transportation. Company,
bound for Philadelphia from Savan-
nah, last night destroyed the vessel,
two miles off Tybee.
The thirty-two passengers aboard
and the vessel’s crew were saved, but
the ship, her cargo and all baggage
on board are a total loss.
The first cry of fire sent several ex
citable passengers to the rails, and the
members of the crew prevented a num-
bar from Jumping overboard In a mad
desire to leave the burning vessel. In
boats sent out from Fort Screven, man
ned by soldiers, every person was
brought ashore.
Fire was discovered amldshlp within
two hours after the steamer left her
dock, the engineers, boiler men and
firemen being driven from their work
by a blast of smoke. In this crippled
condition the Allegheny began to drift,
her course lying toward the beach.
Captain Freeman and the other offi
cers were the last to leave the Alle
gheny, and seemed to be coming from
a sheet of flame. All of the passen
gers were brought back to Savannah
on a government dredge, leaving the
hull or the steamer still burning.
The Allegheny was built at Cramps
ship yards. Philadelphia, In 1891.

Senator Ocorge IV. Deen represents
tho Fifth district. Including Ware,
Clinch and Coffee. It Is natural that he
should advocate a measure that means
so mueh to his section as a branch ex
perlment station near Waycros*.
Senator Dean Is a profound believer
In his section, nnd grows enthusiastic In
talking of the possibilities of South
Georgia, When the hill to establish a
branch of the experiment station In
Ware county came up In the senate the
other day, ha said In advocating It;
'This bill and the preamble thereto
t forth fully the reason why It
should pass. In addition to whnt Is
stated In this preamble and bill, I wish
to add only a few words. This section
of Georgia has never had the advan
tages that other sections of the state
have hail In the way of experimental
farm und agricultural schools.
“The farmers, as a rule, are pursuing
the same old methods practiced twenty-
five years ago, and they are very much
In need of practical demonstration In
the more modern methods of agricul
ture. We have, sir, a great and grow
ing section of Georgia and when de
veloped I verily believe It will become
the garden spot of the state.
"In my opinion, sir, the wlrogrnsa
section of Georgia will produce not only
a great variety, but a greater quantity,
per acre than can be produced In any
other section of our state. I wish to
state that It will be very gratifying and
greatly appreciated by the whole of the
people of aoutheast Georgia to have
this senate vote unanimously to pass
this MU."
The vote for It was unanimous.
