tossed hither and thither by the wind, hisj
breast exposed to view, and his. eyes ex
pressing both fear and determination-. It
was suggested by the poem known as “The

ber of midnight the sailor boy lay, etc.”

THE SAVANNAH DAILY TIMES, SUNDAY, JANUARY 11, 1885.
False Alarm.
Yesterday morning about a quarter to
: seven o’clock an alarm of fire was turned in
from station No. 7, caused by the discovery
of smoke issuing from the bakery of Mr.
J. H. Ruwe on Bay street. The fire de
partment was quickly out, but their ser-
■ vices were not required It appears that
the excitement was occasioned by the smoke
from the furnace in the candy room and
> one of the employes opened the skylight
for the purpose of allowing the smoke to
f escape. Ti e cry of “ti e” wis soon after
■ heard, and the'alarm was then sounded.
One of the men went on the rod'and stated
to the crowd which quickly assembled that
there was no fire. The firemen returned
from the scene disgusted.

General Lee’s Birthday Celebration.
The 19th of the present month is the
birthday of General Robert E. Lee, and
will be celebrated by an afternoon parade
of the different military organizations of
the city. Yesterday afternoon Colonel Wm
Garrard, of the Volunteer Guards Bat
talion, issued an invitation to the different
military bodies to meet and perfect arrange
ments for the proper celebration of the day,
and in accordance with this invitation,
Colonel Clifford W. Anderson, of the First
Volunteer Regiment of Georgia, has invited
the commanding officers of the various
companies to meet on Monday afternoon at
5 o’clock, for the purpose of perfecting all
the details necessary to make the day a
success.
Caught Ou the Fly.
Yesterday morning Officer McDermott
arrested a negro named Charles Early on
a warrant issued by Justice T. A. Folliard,
charging him with larceny. He had, it
seem 0 , been renting a room from a woman
named Lou Johnson, and had been cunning
enough to steal §25 or §3O worth of her
wearing apparel before she discovered the
loss. As soon as .she became aware of the
fact she informed the Justice, who issued
the papers and had him arrested just as he
was getting on a train to leave the city. A
part of the goods stolen were found in his
trunk.
Isaac Brown was also captured the same
morning on the charge of larceny after trust
on a warrant issued by Justice Tyson at the
instance of William Clark. Isaac told the
tale as follows: “Well, you see, boss, me
and dat nigger, Bill Clark, done bean gone
in de partnership business sellin’ oranges.
He put in so much money an’ I do de same.
Bill, he come an’ git he board wid me an’
don’t pay me nuffin, so I jes kep de money
what we gits for de oranges till he pay me
de board money. Den he turn in an’ git
mad easel don’t let him cheat me, an’ say
I larceny arter trust. Hub! Larceny
nothin. I don’t steal, boss; I jes wants what
’longs to me, and I gwine to hab it, too. I
aim scared, an’ I can give bond.”
“Feck’s Bad Boy.”
For its class of plays “Pecks Bad Boy,”
as produced by Atkinson’s Comedy Com
pany on Friday evening, Saturday and
Saturday matinee, was a grand success. The
entire company was good, except‘ Mrs.
Hannah Peck,” the bad boy’s ma, by Miss
Cora Lyle. Her use of grease paint is en
tirely too lavish, and her manner of lisping
her words prevented the audience from
hearing half of what she said- “ Max
Schultz, the groceryman, was immense in
everything he did, Mr. Dan Mason sus
tained that character well. “Major Isaac
Peck,” by Mr. Charles Willard, was also
well acted, and caught the house time after
time. And “Henry Peck,” as represented
by Master Harry Kelley, was too ludicorous
for description. ’ His pranks were all so
natural and boy-like that it seemed to the
oid folks in the audience as if they were
gazing at a retrospective piciure of them
selves in the “golden long ago,” while the
many little fellows present seemed to be
itching to get on the stage and help him
and his “chum” play their mischievous
pranks. The play is not unchaste; is full of
real innocent fun, such as all can enjoy.
THE SPANISH SUFFERERS.
Savannah Maintains Her Established
Reputation for Charity.
The subjoined amounts, in addition to those
reported yeste-day, have been subscribed for
the relief of the sufferers by the recent
earthquakes in Spain. The neat amount
raised speaks well for, and maintains the well
established reputation of, our citizens for
always coming forward promptly and liber
ally to the aid of the distressed, in any
quarter of the globe. Certainly no more
worthy subjects for the dispensation of
charity than the people in the South of Spain,
whom Providence has stricken with so heavy
a hand, could be presented. The following
re the additional subscriptions, and we
hope the list will be still further increased:
M. S. Haner, §1; E. Haner, §1; F. U
Cassels, §1; Hampton L. Ferrill, Judge
Court of Ordinary Chatham county, §sj
Gustave Fox, §5; A . R. Altmayer A Co., §5

Solomon & Son, §5; Cash, §2; M. Golinsky,

The “ Woman’s Christian Temperance
Union” is looking for a visit from the
Southern Superintendent of the work, Mrs.
Sallie F. Chapin. She is to be two days
in the city, and will address a children’s
meeting on Tuesday, at 4 p. m., and j in a
Sociable to be given by the Society on the
same night, in the School Room of Trinity
, Church, and on the next night she is to
i deliver an address at a public meeting to
be advertised in due time.
THE MUNICIPAL ELECTION. |
Action of the Various Political Clubs—No j
Intention to Force a Ticket
Upon the People.
The next election to take p’nee is tl e
one for municipal officers, which is fast ap
proaching The different clubs of the city
in view of the fact that a nomination of
office s is a necessity, and also that no one
seemed to be taking any interest in the
matter went to work to try and make up
a ticket of good men wno would accept the
offices, and who would be acceptable to the
entire citizenship of Savannah, and which
it was proposed to offer to the favorable
consideration of the people—not by any
means intending to foist upon them
a ticket made up by a small number of men,
who had axes to grind. In order to ac
complish this task a committee composed of
five from each of the clubs was appointed,
whose duty it was to make up this ticket.
The first meeting of these clubs was held
last week, at which little was done. A
sec md meeting was held at St. Andrew’s
Hall the early part of the past week, and a
number of good men were put on the ticket
and accepted unanimously by the different
representatives of the clubs. But the names
of som ■ parties which it seems some of the
clubs did not favor, were suggested and
were promptly voted dowh. This, it seems,
caused some dissatisfaction, and as a con
sequence a meeting of citizens was held at
the same place on Friday night for the ob
ject of organizing a committee of 100 for
the purpose of opposing any ticket put in
nomination by the clubs. Dr. L. A. Falli—
gant was called to the chair, and Mr. A.
N. Manucy acted as Secretary. Alter much
discussion it was decided that instead of the
committee be ng limited to 100, it should be
unlimited, and that it should include all
citizens opposed to club nominations and in
favor of gool men taking the reins of gov
ernment in hand.
It seemed to be an understood thing that
the four clubs of the city, viz : the Young
Men’s Democratic Club, the Irish-Ameri
can Club, the German-American Club, and
the Retail Dealers’ Association, had already
nominated a ticket, and the object of the
meeting was to make a nomination —a citi
zens nomination —to oppose the club nomi
nation, or rather to go into measures to
break up this club nomination. This
seemed so far as expressed, the animus of
the meeting.
A Times reporter called on several of
the most prominent members of each of the
clubs, some of whom had been members of
this joint nominating committee, and asked
their sentiments in regard to the aciion
taken by the citizens meeting and the in leu
tion of the clubs? In reply, he was told
in substance, by all, that it was decidedly
the object of the clubs to simply compile a
list of names of goad men who would have
b-en presented to the people for the
purpose of letting them select whom
they wished for the aldermanic board. It
was not their intention—and it was so ex
piessed most plainly—to say to the people,
“Here is a ticket which we have made up
for you to vote: now vote it 1” but quite
the reverse. The ticket was to have been
offered subject to the scratching of al), or as
many names as the people saw fit. An ac
ceptable ticket was the thing sought. The
clubs, all of which stand by Democratic
principles, had simply taken the matter in
hand because no one ebe bad done so, and
because no mass meeting had been held or
suggested, and they all had pledged them
selves to support the choice of the people.
So far as trying to run the city of Savannah,
the clubs deny in toto having ever thought
of such a thing, much less having attempted
it. Each club stands ready at the present
moment to support any nomination made
at a citizens’ mass meeting.
A GOOD MOVE.
Railway Combination to Insu e R >.pid
Transit and Comfort.
The Central Railroad has just completed
arrangements with the leading railway lines j
of Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina to
form a combination to be known as the
Georgia Traffic Associated Fast Freight
and Passenger Line. The railways forming
the combination are the Western and
Atlantic Railway, the Georgia Railway and
all its branches, the South Carolina Railway
and all its branches, the Port Royal and
Augusta Railway, the Augusta and Knox
ville Railway, tin- Atlanta and West Point
Railway, the Western Railway of Alabama
and the Central Railway and all lines
over which it has traffic connections.
The association will have control of 2,545
miles of railway. The object of this com
bination is to secure by concert of action
the operation of fast freight and passenger
schedules, the prevention of delays at junc
tions, connections of through car lines, sat
isfactory terminal deliveries and the adop
tion of other measures necessary to the
rapid transit and comfort of passengers, and
the promptest handling of all traffic en
trusted to any of the lines of the association.
The adjustment of all claims will also
receive the most prompt attention. Ihe
a.sociation ask the patronage of the public
and pledge themselves that their personal
attention will be given to all
measures, insuring the greatest
dispatch in the moving of pass-
sengers and traffic entrusted to the. care of
the lines. Agents have been appointed in
the-interest of this association at Chicago,
St Louis and Kan-as City in the Wist, and
at Jacksonville, covering the territory of
Florida. The affairs of the association are
in the hands of a commi 'ee composed of
Major George A. Whitehead, of the Central
Railroad; E. R. Dorsey, of the Georgia
Railroad, ami J. M. Brown, of the Western
and Atlantic Railroad. The arrangement.-,
for this association were formed in Augusta
on the 6ih inst., and to Major George A
Whitehead the Times is indebted for the
information received. Any new develop
ments will be given in due time.
John T. Raymond’s Political Comedy.
The announcement of the early appear
ance of Mr. John T. Raymond, the famous
comedian, will be welcome news to the
many theatre goers who have enjoyed his
pleasant performances in past seasons. He
will give one performance at the Theatre
next Thursday evening, January 15,
appearing as “Gen. Josiah Limber,” in
bis latest success, “For Congress,” a po
litical comedy intended to satirize the
ways and means employed in conducting a
district campaign. He will have the sup
port of an admirable company, and a de
lightful and finished performance may be
anticipated.
LUNATICS
Must Undergo a Regular Trial.
| It will be remembered that on the 15th
| of December last the Times published a
letter from Hon. Hampton L. Ferrill,
Ordinary, addressed to Hon. Clifford An
derson, Attorney General of the State of
Georgia, relative to the decision of the
Board of Trustees of the State Lunatic
Asylum at Milledgeville as to the manner
of trial which must be pursued by the
Ordinaries of each county of Georgia before
an insane person would be received by
them. The reply of the Attorney General,
stating that he was not authorized to give
an official opinion unless called on by the
Governor, was also published. The de
cision of the trustees wis in substance that
no iusaue person would be received in the
.'sylum without his having received a regu
lar trial for lunacy, attended by a jury of
eighteen, one of whom must be a physician.
The pres uce of a magistrate and sheriff
was also essential. Since that time
the Board of County Commissioners
and others have taken in hand the matter,
and the Attorney General has given his
official opinion of the matter, a copy of
which was received by the Ordinary yester
day. According to the opinion pf Col.
Anderson the ceremonies prescribed by the
trustees must be observed in order
to insure admittance to the asylum.
He bases his conclusions upon the general
law enacted in October, 1877, which dele
gates to the trustees the power to make
rules fir the government of the asylum.
This being the case all former 'aws and laws
contrary to this are null and void, and each
county must stand the extra expense en
tailed by such jury trial. While the deci
sion is correct in evpry detail, it will no
doubt be a hardship upon the counties,
which the taxpayers will have to stand.
A N.-at Establishment.
One of the neatest and best kept grocery
stores in the South, is that of A. M. & C. W.
West, corner Liberty and Whitaker streets
They have been in the business in this city
for the past 19 years, and the experience
gained in that time has enabled them to
please their customers in everything. One
feature which they were the first to intro
duce in the city, is a large coffee mill, run
by a Turk Water Motor. It stands in the
-how window at the front of the store, and
when a lady wishes any quantity of ground
I coffee from one pound up, it is placed in the
mill in her presence and ground, thus in
suring the greatest freshness. The coffee
used is Pri ate Plantation Java, put up by
their Boston connection in 40 pounds cans,
and guaranteed free from any impurities.
They also have a splendid line of genuine
Mocha and Rio. They put the ground
coffee up iu beautifully decorated cans of
different sizes, ranging in price from 15 to
40 cents each. In addition to the big
drive which they are making in coffee, they
have a very fine line of the best imported
and domestic preserved fruits in the neat
est packages, the finest confections, and in
fact everything to be found in a first class
retail grocery store. They can sell their
goods as low as any one else in the city.
“Monte Cristo” in Atlanta.
The Constitution has this to say of the
performance of “Monte Cristo,” by James
O’Neill, who appears at the Savannah Thea
tre on Monday evening, the 12th inst :
“Another very large bouse greeted‘Monte
Cristo’ at DeGive’s last night. Many who
ha<l seen this wonderful creation the night
before came again, and the audience was
equally as enthusiastic as on the first pre
sentation. Thera were few additions to the
i :enery, which was already perfect enough,
and everything moved along with smooth
ness and precision. Mr. O’Neill was again
at his lest, and was recalled .after each act.
His splendid work received unstinted ap
plause, as did the versatile and wonderful
acting of Mr. Delmore as ‘Noirtier.' There
is not a stick in the entire cast, and it is
j tio disparagement to other companies that
have visited Atlanta, to say that Mr. O'Neill
has brought with him, in this engagement,
the finest troupe of actors, as a whole, ever
seen on the stage in this city. It is a pleas
ing pleasure to see a play like ‘Monte
Cristo,’ and no one, who has not already
attended, should fail to do so.”
A. R. Altmayer & Co.,
Are offering a tremendous line of fine
hosiery, handkerchiefs and embroideries at
half price. The reason of this is that Mr.
Altmayer made a big purchase of a job lot
of these goods in New York the past week,
and paid the cash for them. The handker
chiefs range from the cheapest to the high
est grades, and startle every one when they
learn the prices. The hosiery is equally as
cheap, and e'egantly assorted. And the
ladies go wild over the embroideries on ac
count of the low prices, and buy more
than they need, because it is
so cheap, and th<y fear to lese
this excellent chance at a good bargain.
Cloaks at much reduced prices are also a
great attraction, and the ladies seeing the
slaughter going on in this branch, are tak
ing advantage of it, and lessening the stock
materially. They have made a general
mark-down of prices in cloaks, seal plush
sacques, bn cade wraps, and all wool new
markets, and are determined to sell them.
Shoes will hereafter constitute one of the
leading features of this firm, and the stock
of all grades even now on hand, is surpr s
iug. The brands carried are the best in the
ountry and the varieties innumerable.
Polite sale-men take pleasure in showing
goods, purchase or no purchase.
