About o'clock yesterday, as ear Oh
the Whitaker street line was approaching
the Bay. when at Bryan street a horse
ridden by a small colOred boy became
frightened and backed up against the
dashboard. The driver of the street car
called TO the yOUngster 10 look out, but
did not put on the brake Immediately.
The horse, however, continued to back
u9 against the car and was Knocked
down, the boy falling under him, and it
looked as il the boy and horse must he
crushed 10 death. Fortunately, the brake
was put on in the nick Of time, as the car
wheel had lust reached the boys ankle
when il was checked in its course. An
other moment and the horse as well as
the rider would have been crushed. The
boy received slight bruise on his ankle,
but it did not prevent him from walking
away. The horse. which was ridden away
by a c0lnred man, did not receive any in
jury at all.

All Claim TO be First.

There's hardly clothing store IN the city
that doesn't claim TO keep the best goods ana
more of them. and to either buy or manuiae-
ture their merchandise for less money than
anv other house in this country at least II
not in the whole universe. And then. too,
they sell their wonderfully made, elegant and
perfect fitting garments at prices from 10 70
80 per cent cheaper ION paper than their
competitors. Yet of the many Retail Cloth
ing Houses in Savannah, which Is fairly, hon
estlv and Justly at the front: Which Is really
6rsts We are too modest to claim for our
selves any such distinction, but let an intelil-
gent and impartial public answer. However,
If any dozen well informed gentlemen or
ladies in this vicinity were asked TO name
the most prominent Retail Clothing House IN
Savannah, there can be but little doubt about
the verdict Persons come into our establish
ment every day in the year and state that
they were referred to Us as the leading and
most reliable ClOthiers OF the city. Why we
are spoken of 50 highly is no mystery. Crusty
competitors who cling to single ldea about
business as if ii were patented, don't under
stand it, but the people know that we
have built our grand success upon the broad
and sure foundation Of acceptable and trust
worthy methods. We have kept only such
goods as the public want, and never printed
a word about them that We could not back
up by facts in the store. Somehow people Ike

ANINTEREsTING SUIT.
The Savannah, Florida and Western
Railway MuIcted i'm Damages.

The Savannah, Florida and Western
Railway Mulcted in Damages.
From a gentleman just returned from
Jesup we learn the particulars of "a very
interesting case which was tried before
Hon. VI. L. Mershon, Judge of WAYNE ou-
perior Court ON Thursday last.
The facts in the case, as given in evil
dence. are that Mrs. Remington leased
the AItamaha Hotel at Jesup, and entered
into a contract with the railway company
for the various trains to stop at that point
at certain meal times, thus making 1t
profitable venture for the proprietor Of
the hotel. The company subsequently
erected a large eating house at Way
cross. and changing its schedules ac-
cordngly, abrOgated its previous agree
ment with the company. As Mrs. Rem
iugton suffered considerable loss result
ant from this change, compelling her to
abandon the hotel, she brought suit
against il for the loss sustained. The
trial on Thursday resulted in a verdict
for the plaintiff, the jury awarding her the
sum Of 5000 damages. The plaintiff was
represented by Messrs. Garrard a Mel
drIm, and the company by Messrs. Chs
holm X Erwin, Col. John {. Nichols and
Mr. :. r. kingsbeTry.
Defendants counsel gave notice OF mo-
ti0U for A new trial.
