THE ELECTRIC LIGHT.
An Interesting and Successful Test
of the Works.

Yesterday afternoon the stockholders Of
the "Brush Electric Light and Power Com
pany Of Savannah" met at the office Of
Captain D. G.. Purse, acting President, and
adjourned to the works Of the company, on
Ann street, near River, to witness q full test
Of the engine, dynamo machine and the
lights.
Forty two thousand-candle power lights
had been hung up in the old foundry build
ing adjoining the works, for the purpose of
fully testing the capacity Of the dynamo ma
ehines and at the same time the lamps. A
test was first made with all the lamps,
which gave a steady light. Then a test was
made with thirty lamps without any change
In the running Of the engine, and so on un-
I'll the lamps were reduced to two. 1t
was fully demonstrated that the
electric governor completely con-
trOlled the current Of electricity, by which
one or forty lights could be burning without
any change in the speed Of the machinery.
Everything is now in perfect running order,
and we are assured the works, as
promised, are equal to the best that
have been erected. The company
being satisfied that they are now In posi-
ton to offer the electric light TO customers,
viii az once proceed 70 put up the lamps,
and In few nights we hope TO see it in
practical operation.

DARING OUTRAGE.
A COIOred Woman Assaulted aud
Robbed In Her Room.

Yesterday morning about O'Clock con-
siderable sensation was occasioned In the
neighborhood OF South Broad and Mont
gomery streets by frantic yells, proceeding
from the rear of premises POI South Broad
street. The occupants of the house were
aroused, and on inquiry into the cause of
the unusual disturbance, ascertained the
following facts: On the rear lot
are the servants rooms, occupied by
those employed In the house.
One OF these rooms was occupied by the
house servant, g girl named Milly, and Il
was found the wells were from her apart
ment. On being interviewed IS to the cause
Of her screams, Milly stated that she was
awakened by negro man entering her
room, who, finding her aroused, imme-
distely attempted felonious assault upon
her. She resisted the assault vigorously
and screamed out Justify, which fright
ened the invader, who precipitately re-
treated. After a time the house again set
tied down to quiet, when in about an hour
there was another turmoil. 1t seems that
Milly intended leaving for Florida yesterday
morning to visit her mother, who Is sick.
and after recovering from her fright occa-
stoned by the intrusion OF the negro, became
uneasy aDOuL ner money, Wnlch she had
placed on the mantelpiece Just before
going to bed. Shortly after four o'clock
she got up, lighted the lamp, and taking the
money sat on the side OF She bed to count
it. Whilst thus engaged, her room was
again entered by negro, whom she states
she recognized as Charles Arnold, husband
OF the cook employed on the place, and as
she screamed out he threw bag over her
head sitting her, seized the money, blew
| out the light and decamped. This was the
cause OF the second alarm. After
| daybreak, Arnold who was found
on the lot, was accused of the double out
rage, which he denied Indignantly. Early
in the morning be proceeded to Magistrate
| Naughtin's Office and had a warrant issued
/ against Milly for defamation of character,
| but after examining into the matter the
| Magistrate discharged the girl.
| MillY then went to Magistrate Elsinger's
office and had a warrant issued against
Charles Arnold. charging him with attempt
to rape and with robbery. The amount
taken from her was ten dollars and sixty
cents, In addition to some change given her
by the lady of the house to do the marketing
for breakfast. Up to late last evening Ar
mold had not been arrested, and, 1T is said,
he has departed from town. The Woman's
visit to Florida has been postponed for the
| present on account of the loss Of her funds
Her intention is to prosecute Arnold, If be
is captured, to the full extent Of the law, al
she is positive as to his identity.
