The A'tesian Weil.
Quite a number of people visited the
artesian well yesterday and took in all the
machinery and the nature of the work done.
Many paid 5 cents for a glass of the water,
ond gave the artesian production a kind of
analysis as the water was swallowed. Some
made wry faces, others apparently appre
ciated the medicinal and mineral properties
of the water and enj >yed the drink, while
many more preferred to pay the 5 cents re
quired for this for a drink of beer. In any
event those who visited the well were satis
fied with the work accomplished and ex
pressed hopes that the project would sue
cessfußy accomplish all that its owners de
sired. It is in a fairway to do so.
Bijou Opera Company.
Os this company, which opens here on
Thursday evening next, the Jacksonville
Times-Union says : “We are pleased to
make the above announcement, for the rea
son that this is a first cl isscompany in every
respect. Almost every individual member is
an artist, the managers wisely acting on the
principle that a sma'l company of acknow
ledged merit throughout is more acceptable
to the public than a cumbersome crowd of
third rate singers giving a questionable sup
port to a lonely prima donna. Further, it Ir
a company of ladies and gentlemen in the
full sense of the word, whether on the stage
or off, and in no place is this more quickly
observed or more highly appreciated than
here. Our people are coldly critical, but
generous with their applause when merited.
The Bijous require no formal introduction,
as the marked success of their recent en
gagement here is still fresh in our minds
and will insure them a warm and friendly
reception.”
An Interesting Fair.
The Savannah Baptist Church wi 1 com
mence a fair to morrow evening at Armory
Hall. It will continue Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday nights. The arrangements
for the fair are about complete, and it will
be an interesting and undoubtedly success
ful one. A corps of young ladies will have
charge of the tables, and if a man can with
stand their appeals for aid in the cause, he
must be devoid of that organ which anato
mists call a heart. They will work on the
susceptibilities of' the young and the old,
and will make the event a success. All the
latest wrinkles of fairs in the shape of post -
offices, express offices, telegrams, etc., will
be introduced. Besides a due regard for
veracity compels the Times to say tint the
young ladies will have the best of refresh
ments and the most delicious icecream. By
the way, a popular teacher in the Sunday
scho >1" instructed her pupiD, all young
ladies, never to refuse an icecream when
invited, hence that article will be in great
demand. Some fine articles will be disposed
of and an enjoyable time will be had.
Important to Truckers.
Mr. Nat. T. Elliott, representing the well
known commission house of G._L. Lawrence,
New York, is in the city in its inteJirts. He
will remain here for several days, and will
call upon the truckers and shippers. The
house which Mr. Elliott represents does an
extensive business in Southern fruits, veget
ables and melons. We commend Mr. Elliott,
who is a brother of Mr. D. H. Elliott, well
known throughout this section, to the favor
able consideration of our truckers.
SAVANNAH DAILY TIMES: MONDAY, MAY 11, 1885.
AN UNPLEASANT EPISODE,
A Buggy Upset by Running into Some
Cattle.
Yesterday afternoon, Mr. F. E. Thanasaw,
accompanied by Miss Ibbie Fennelly, Mr
John Manning and Miss Laura Matthews
Messrs. James Vereen and "William Hohen
stein, drove to the Vernon House, at White
Bluff; for the purpose of enjoying a dinner
and indulging in a pleasant ride.
When the party reached the seven mile
post they encountered a number of cows on
the road, through which Mr. Vereen at
tempted to drive. He struck against one of
them, which turned and upset the buggy and
frightened the horse. The latter ran away
and again collided with the cows. The ve
hicle was broken all to pieces in this rush
and had to be left on the road. The occupants
were not injured much. The buggy con
taining Mr. Thomson and Miss Fennelly
was next struck by the frightened cattle
and the ycung gentleman was thrown from
the vehicle across a cow and painfully in
jured on the head and back. The horse
extricated himself from the cattle and ran
away. Miss Fennelly with rare presence
of mind clung Io the buggy until the
frightened animal had run about three
miles, when she threw herself out. She
sustained severe injuries on the head, as
a piece of shell was forced into the sk in
Her arms were badly injured and her
clothing all torn. The horse was captured
afterwards and brought back. Neither the
horse or the vehicle was much injured
The buggv containing Mr. John Manning
and Miss Laura Mathews was not much
damaged. The young man was thrown out
and sustained a sprained hand. The young
lady was uninjured but greatly frightened.
Police Matters.
Isaac Green, John Harrison, John Perry,
Claiborne Butler, Evans Wilson, J. W
Thompson, Henry Daily and Thomas
Howard were arrested Saturday night at
12:30 o’clock by policeman Prendible and
Baughn for gambling and fighting in the

Georgia Nixon in her house. He resisted

these at ts he was arraigned to-d iv and Mi y r
Lester fined him $o on the first charge and
s>lo on the second.
John Drayton, a c bred boy about eight
years of age, who li - es at No. 2 on the Cen
tral railroad, went Saturday afternoon to
the barber shop of Wm 11. Taylor and stole
a watch and chain, lie was arres ed and
arraigned before Mayor Lester to-day. As
the boy was too young to be punished, but
not to steal, he w.ts locked up in the bar
racks to be whipped by his parents who
were notified of the theft.
Samuel M.lltrd, the negro who assaulted
Policeman Ligh ho ly Saturday i ight on

The Council on the Horning Ordinance.
An adjourned meeting of the City Coun
cil was hell at 12 m. to-day. Aiderman
William Duncan chairman of the Council
presided. There were present Aldermen
Myers, Thomas, B rgart, Hamlet, O’Connor,
Nichols, Mills and Meli. The Board of
Trade sent a request that the ordinance
relating to “horning” discussed at the
Board’s meeting last Friday, be returned
to that body and that further action in the
matter be suspended. Considerable discus
sion was had on the matter, which was in
dulged in by most all the members. The
ordinance was placed on its second reading,
but unanimous consent could not be granted
as one of the Aidermen objected. After the
discussion it was agreed by Council not to
return the ordinance, as it was a part of the
records of the Council, but to withdraw it
from the consideration of the Board. This
was all the business transacted with the ex
ception of one unimportant matter of no pub
lic moment.
Cheering Words Wired the Cadets.
Yesterday the members of the Savannah
Cadets who could not participate in the inter
state tournament at Mobile, or be present as
spectators met and sent to the gallant com
pany the following dispatch:
Captain H. M. Branch, Savannah Cadets, Savan
nah, Georgia:
We are not discouraged, but ready to put
our shoulders to the wheel. People are satis
fied with the position the company- got. Tell
the boys not to feel disheartened, but show
their mettle at New Orleans. Now ready
more than ever. Wire sure when you will
reach Savannah.

This was a proper thing to do under all
circumstances, as the Cadets did remarkably
well. They will be met at Waycross on
their return trip by a delegation of military
and escorted to Savannah. Proper honors
will be prepared for and accorded them.
Opening of the Excursion Season.
Yester ay a number of excursion’sts

of these excursions will take place from the
interior, . i tCapt- D. G. Purse will do all
in his : we.r to make Tybee attractive
for the p i lies who visit Savannah and her
seaside r-sort. Nature has done much for
Tvb'e in t’.e hape of a beach that cannot
oe excel!--I. has appointed cooling, health
giving s: 1: breezes, and span out an ocean
view, vast, grand and sublime. Yet man
can aid n tire somewhat, and what man can
do with ability, experience and money,
Captain Pise will do, and between nature
and him T*b e cannot help being what it
ought and must be, one of the most attrac
. live seaside resorts on the Atlantic coast.
