Atlantic, Neither has better reading
that Hafpers or the Century, and each
lacks the illustrations of those wonder
ful repositories of popular cultivation.
But Of course, the Atlantic has its New
England following while fheCalifornian
publication has a comparatively small
constituency OF readers But the March
number has one name on its title page
who is always sure Of his readers And
Honolulu must take off its hat when
the literary world applauds, for that
name is Charles Warren Stoddard.
The second instalment Of Lazy Letters
from Low Latitudes consists Of six en-
titled Anoat- Ashore-A Sabbatical

Colonial Transit-A Day of Rest. Not
every Honolulan reader will like those
lazy letters Not one reader in a thou
sand the world over-is poet enough
to appreciate to understand 49, the
dainty perfcctncss of Stoddard's prose
Many an one will read these lazy letters

DO you know the record Of these band boys,
Her Professor ? Then here it is in little :
Twelve years ago Professor Henry Berger took
the native lads in hand they were sixteen in
number Of these sixteen eight are still with
him he has lost two Of his best solo perform
ers by death. They all read music a, sight
and with remarkable huency. Professor Der.
ger, an enthusiastic musician and composer
himself receives from Paris, Berlin, and Lon
don the latest music, and not infrequently
selections from the last European operatic
novelty are played in Honolulu before they
have been heard in the United States. The
Hawaiian band boys are familiar with the
chief publications Of Boosey and Chappell Of
London, and John White of Boston, and they
have played more than one thousand selections
in public. There are three rehearsals per
week, each from three to four hours in length !;
there are three concerts per week-and some
times more. The number Of concerts already
given in Honolulu may be roughly estimated as
follows
At the Hawaiian Hotel
AZ the Palace. 400
At Emma Square. SIS

And let me add, since you have recently had
the pleasure Of hearing them play in San

cure full turnout Of the party strength in
the October election, for the effect it will
have on other States in the November cleo
ton.
The Democracy of Georgia has always oe-
cupied prominent position as an important
part of the great Democratic party of the
Union. which is the party of the constitu-
ton and of equal and just laws; the party
that has maintained the rights and liberties
of the native population of the country,
which, in the darkest hours of their trial, has
stood immovably by the rights of the foreign
born naturaliZed citizens of this republic.
The party opposed to unjust and aggressive
monopoly and m favor Of equal rights to every
citizen OF the republic, and Of equal protection
to American capital and American labor OF
every class and character. The party which
has, when in power, honestly administered
the affairs of the government. The party OF
reform when the government is not honestly
and economically administered.
Let us rally under the banner OF this glor1-
GUS old party, and never relax our efforts until
it is again inaugurated into power and the
constitutional rights and liberties of the peo-
pie are again restored and protected as they
were when the government was administered
by the fathers of the Democratic party of the
Union. J. H. POLHILL,

Early yesterday morning negro lad
about Is years old named Robert Swinton
aused quite an excitement on TattnaIl
street by striking a young colOred girl
named Ida Washington on the ton
Of the head with a large rock, in
ficting a serious scalp wound. The
force Of the blow knocked the girl to the
ground, when the boy ran into store on
the corner Of Tattnan and Hall streets.
and there remained until Policeman
Townsend was summoned from FORSYTH
Park, when SwintOn was taken to the
barracks in time to participate in the
proceedings Of the Mayors Court. The
testimony showed that the accused
was IN the habit Of throwing stones at
children on the street, and that there was
no doubt but that he was guilty Of having
knocked Ida Washington down. The
Mayor sentenced him to pay a fine Of $40
or TO be imprisoned thirty DAYS. The
punishment ordered by the court in this
case may serve as a warning to a num-

He wouldn't be Quieted.

About $50 O'Clock last night the
usually quiet portion of the city near the
corner of Anderson street lane and Price
street, was aroused by the noise of a
fight which at first was supposed to be
gong on between a man and his wife.
Mounted Policeman Hall rode to the
vicinity, and he was called upon by a
white man named Hudson to arrest Will
liam Cook, another white man, Hudson's
face was covered with blood, which
issued from long cash on the lett side of
his head, while Cook was exceedingly
intoxicated and had driven his own as
well as HudsOn's wife out of the house.
Hudson said that the two wives and their
husbands occupied the four room house
together in peace until last night, and
that when he attempted to quiet Cook
and make him behave himself the latter
threw chair, striking him on the head
and infiicting a scalp wound. Cook was
lodged in the barracks, and will appear
before the MayOr tomorrow morning

RAILROAD RUMBLINGs.
Bright Flashes of Intelligence from
Near and Afar


Lake City Star: Since our article oflast
week regarding the building of the branch
road from Lake City to Fort White, we
have received information which shows
quite plainly that it is not altogether the
fault of the Savannah, Florida and West
ern Company that the branch has not been
built. Lands TO which the Savannah,
Florida and Western Company were en-
titled, have been claimed by other pro-
jected roads, and the matter has had 10 90
before the Board of Internal Improvement
for adjustment, thus delaying the Sayan-
nah, Florida and Western who, on ac-
count Of the financial crisis in New York,
relied to considerable extent on the sale
of these lands. The company will prob
ably, as soon as this land matter can be
Strengthened out satisfactorily, which
we are informed will be very
soon, go to work and put the
line through in short order. Thece
seems to.have been a Misrepresentation on
the part of some, of our article, and they
would wish to place us in q false position
toward the company. We have nothing
but friendly feelings for the company and
high regard for the officers, consequently
gave them credit for being men of suffi-
cient financial torethought tc know that
they could not build this branch without
loss TO the company, unless they were re-
imbursed by the sales of lands granted
them. The people of this county have
been humbugged so often that they are
prone to look at everything with sus-
piciOn, and however friendly we may be
to any corporation we deem it a duty to
lay before our citizens anything that we
consider as affecting their interests, but
are ever ready to correct any mistakes
that we NAV make.

SPORTS AND SPORTING
What 1t Costs to Run Base Ball Club
Events In the Field and Ring

Events In the Field and Ring.
There are now two stations before the
public with better records than Smuggler
-Phallas 2;1354, and Maxey Cobb 2:15.
Jem Mace will sail from Liverpool for
New York on Oct. Z. On his arrival he
will issue a challenge to box John L..
Sullivan four rounds, Queensbury rules.
Mace Will be accompanied by an I'm
known, whom he will be prepared to back
against any man in America.
1t is rumored in sporting circles that
John l.. Sullivan contemplates a scheme
for elevatlng sparring and creating more
favorable impression of the manly art, as
well as to attract ladies to glove exhibit
tons. His idea is that joint exhibition
and lecture on the science of sparring
would be listened to with interest, He
would have good lecturer tell the story
OF the rise, growth and fall of pugilism,
and by means of stereOptic or other views,
illustrate interesting events in the ring
AT intervals throughout the lecture Sulli-
van and some other boxer of reputation
would appear in costume, put on the
| gloves and show, in q ring It upon the
I stage, how Old-time battles were won and
lost, describing the effects of blows and
giving general idea of the principles of
scientific sparring. Sullivan is being
urged by friends to give this idea trial
in Boston.
The cost of running a good base ball
club In the American Association during
a season is estimated to be fully $50, 600,
Lew Simmons put down the expenses of
the Athletics on their last five weeks
tour at So 900, and estimated nearly the
same amount for their fall trip. Harry
Wright says the Philadelphia can travel
for considerably less. The probability is
that Simmons made something of an over
estimate, but both managers agree that
the cost is very heavy. Taking the esti-
mate of gentleman outside of both clubs,
the cost for travelling is not much less
than $4,000. He gives the entire cost
of running the Athletics, which is a
fair sample of frst-class clubs, as
$4,000. His knowledge is accurate
and his figures can be relied on. The
details of expenses, he says, are as fcl-
lows: For salaries, $4,000, divided as
follows: StOVey, $4,000; Matthews,
$4,000; Knight, $1,000; O'Brien, 1880;
Milligan, 81, 200; Stricken, 81, 200; Corey,
$1,000; Birchall, $1,000; Taylor, $4,000:
Llrkin, $1,000; Houck, $500; Siffel,
nominal, about $500. The grounds cost
$4,000 per year. Expenses for ticket
takers, etc., $4,000, and for travelling
$4,000 to $4,000. Mansell, Birchall, Atkin-
son, ROwen and other players, who were
on the clubs payroll part of the time,
run the sum total of expenses nearly up
to $4,000. The Metropolitan Club, in
New York, pay over three times as much
for their grounds and have expenses for
other matters, but their total cost prob
ably does not vary S., 900 from that of the
Athletics. st. Louis has an expensive
nine, but it comes within 900 also.

The Case OF the Bark Hrrat.

SAVANNAH, GA, Sept. 20. = Editor
Morning Nelcs: 1 respectfully beg to in
sert in your valuable paper the following:
My vessel, the Austrian bark Hrvat,
being under pilots command, struck on
Blackboard shoals. The United States
revenue cutter Boutwell, came to my as
sistance and towed me to Sapelo Sound,
Her commander, after rendering the
above service, told me, in presence Of sew
eral witnesses, and repeated the same to
a merchant of this place, that the expense
would only be the cost Of coal and oil
used.
Without any bill of services ever having
been presented to me my vessel was IL
beled for salvage and had to submit TO all
expense, loss Of time, and, finally. con-
sent to an eXOrbitant compromise for sal
wage and cost of court, which, il master
Of Boutwell, had presented to me, would
have been taken into consideration.

The Theatre was packed last night from
the stage TO the wall, and from the par
quet 10 the top gallery, to witness the
temperance Of Savannah's favorite
minstrels-''Milt" Barlow and George
Wilson, and their combination of speciality
artists. Everything down on the bills
was performed and took the house BY
storm. Every act was new, and
a more enjoyable show it would be
hard 70 find. In the first part
the instrumental music was excellent.
The ballads THE Bold Jack Tar bv
Stanley Vernon and The Beautiful Child
Of the Street." by J. NJ. Wood. were far
superior to those generally heard in shows
OF this class, and their efforts were
warmly applauded.
The afteTpiece brought out the full COM
pany IN the Nv hite Elephant" and was a
hitting finale 70 a clever show. George
Wilson carried OF his usual honors. He
is an lnimitable comedian, and. what is
more bys a sweet voice, that makes his
singing Of the comic refrains all the more
enjoyable.

A Crv for Light

SAVANNAH, Sept. 19.-Editor Morning
Neaos: The citizens and property owners
of William street want to know if it is
right and just for them to be made to pay
full taxes and then be deprived of light
in their street? We are living in the dark.
The light ON Margaret street don't do us
bit of good. We who live on William
street can hardly find our way home after
dark. 1t is a shame, and not only a
shame, but an injustice. We pay the city
as much taxes as Bull or Broughton
streets in proportion to our property. We
do not ask a tower. We will be satisfied
with pole such as Margaret street has;
then we can find our homes without
trouble.
