TIE Houston Chronicle has made the
startling discovery that Bi>m trek ought
to be turned over To the public execu-
TONER. This should be done because he
is growing imbeoile, the Chronicle
thinks. We have noticed that when ever

to make all Europe howl, he gets i'm

CRUELTY TO FLIES.

Oversleep and Starvation Driving Them
from a FayOrite Dwelling Place.
A pale lad of 10 or 20 summers, says the
New York Sun, smiled uninterruptedly
all the way from Fourteenth to Grand
street on a Third avenue horse ear. Even
after large lady had set part Of basket
Of fish on his lap he smiled on. The con-
ductOr, who for many consecutive days
had seen the same lad invariably wOeful.
was surprised, and asked him about it.
The lad looked up, waved his open hand
once or twice in front of his face, and
then vigorously rubbed his nose. not for
any evident reason, but with the me-
chanical manner of one accustomed to do
so. Then he spoke as follows:
Sup to a few DAYS ago | have been the
victim Of flies. / board in an uptown
restaurant, and have a room over the
kitchen. My work keeps me busy until
or O'Clock in the morning, and | sleep
until in the afternoon. That is, l tried
to sleep. but with the first rays of the
morning sun, just as l was doing OF, the
flies woke up and lit on my nose. Then L
couldn't get asleep again until noon, when
dinner was ready. and the flies went down
stairs.
"But now I've got 'em, and that is why
| smile. / took a big black shawl that

as to keep out every particle of light.
also stuffed up the transOm. At their
usual hour that morning the flies grew
restless and woke up. But apparently
the sun wasn't up. and anyhow, they
couldn't find me. They had to believe
their senses. and do their best to doZe of
again. When l got good and ready got
up and dressed and took down the shawl.
never laughed so much as l did when
those flies found it was O'Clock p. m.
and dinner was over. I've been laughing
ever since, and too much sleep and MOTH
ing TO eat is killing those flies off fast.
That's why I'm smiling"
The conductor took up a few nickels,
rang them all up, absent-mindedly, and
crept back to the rear platform to reflect
on the wonders accomplished by genius.

"EvERYBoDY's FRIEND"
The Fords' Latest Success-A Brilliant
Performance Last Night.

The Fords' Latest Success-A Brilliant
Performance Last Night.
The Fords' Opera House was packed
last night. Every seat on the main floor
was taken, and the gallery was crowded
to the wall. Everybody wanted to see
s.Everybody's Friend and good many
did. The playa laughable cOmedy-pre-
scented by the association twice last
year. was repeated in a manner which
left no room for doubt that the F0rds
command as high an order of talent as is
usually found on the professional stage.
The remarkable success which has at
tended them in their entertainments has
placed the association upon
basis far above the average Of pro-
fessional combinations. The east OF the
plav was an admirable one. Miss Nellie
Pierce, the acknowledged tayorite, whom
the Savannah theatre-gOing public has
come to look upon With an admiration be-
yond that for ordinary talent, won new
favor as Mrs. SwansdOwn," character
for which she is emineutly fitted.
Miss Augusta Chambers who made
her first appearance with the FOrds last
week in the "Old, Old Story" and was re-
ceived with so much favor, made a de-
cided hit last night in the dual role OF the
superiOr woman Mrs. Major Wellington
DeBOOts'' and Fanny" Miss Chambers
IS an actress of rare intelligence and
experience. and Will be recognized
in Savannah with more favor probably
than anv other actress who has played
here so short a time. Miss Florie Verne
as Mrs. Featherly" sustained her part
admirably. Lawrence Hanley, SaYan-
nah's favOrite young actor, outGld MINI
self as Felix Featherly," and achieved a
success bevOnd what was even hoped for
by his friends. Mr.. Hanley's talent IS al
ready recognized in the professional world
and his future will be a bright one.
Mr.H ;. Dufield as Frank Icebrook, :"
in a light comedy role, was received with
the same favor which he has been accorded
since his first appearance with the assocl-
atlon. Mr.. Duffield is a talented actor.
his long experience and great con-
ceDtion place him high up in the
dramatic world. MIR. W. A. Nc
Carthy. with whom Savannahians are
all acquainted, as 'Major Wellingham
DeBoots." fulfilled the comedy role which
&c is so properly capable OF sustaining.
Mr.. McCartby's humor is characteristic
and mirth-proyOking. and ne was recelV-
ed with the same demonstrations OF ap-
plause that have marked his appearance
on former occasions.
Mr.. Joseph +. DOYLE as ''TrOp" was an
admirable PRESERVATION Of he character.
Mr.H.C Davis as ''COachman," Mr..
Josephh Collins as ''Gardener," and Mr..
NJ. Jackson as Cook" filled out the
east. which from the first to the lastname
on the programme was beyond adverse
criticism.
The stage management, under Mr.. y.
c. Shaw, to whom the association IS IN
debted for a wise discrimination in the
selection of casts and a general direction
of its affairs, was excellent. The BUSH
ness management, under Messrs. Ihomp-
son and Molina, is in judicious hands, and
the association has nothing to ask that
has not been accorded 1t.

DROWNED II TIE SURF.
Edward Chaplin Loses HIS Own Life In
Saving That Of Another.

Edward Chaplin Loses HIS own Lire IN
Saving That Of Another.
The friends Of Edward W. Chaplin were
deeply panied yesterday by telephone
announcement from Tybee that he had
been drowned while bathing of the beach
early in the morning. The report
was so unexpected that it was
hoped that later intelligence would fail TO
confirm it. A second message gave fuller
particulars relative to the unfortunate
occurrence and established me trut9
Of the report. J. g. Butter ana
a brother Of the deceased went
so the island and returned with
tie body on the afternoon steamer.
II was taken in charge by Undertaken
Dixon and conveyed TO the family resi-
dence. No. 40 AbeTcOrn street. The
friends Of the deceased. on their return
from Tybee, gave the following account
of the sad accident: About 6 O'Clock IL
the morning two yOuug b0ys-Camp-
bell and Frank Edwards
young lady and the deceased went TO
battle of the beach, While enjoying the
surf II was noticed that the younger OF
the bows had been carried by the sea be-
vond his depth. The elder brother and
Chaplin went TO his rescue. Chaplin
caught hold Of the lad, and was coming
I "
crsmp. The other bow pulled his brother
in towards the beach where the water
was shallOwer. when Chaplin Immediately
sank from view. His young friends
AT first cid rot realize the situation
but as their resUuer did not rise to the
surface for minute or two they became
alarmed and ran TO the Ocean House.
where they related what had occurred TO
Capt. Austin. The Captain FASTENED
to the beach, and in less than
three-quarters Of an hour from the
time the accident occurred found the body
in a hole and brought it out OF Che water
on the sand. Every effort was made TO re-
suscitate life, but without avail.
At the time OF the sad occurrence young
Chaplin's wife, who is an invalid, was
sleeping. and when the fearful intelli-
gence was communicated to her she was
| FRUSTRATED with grief.
Mr.. Chaplin was a native OF South Caro-
/ lima, and was 81 years OF age. For num-
| her Of years he had been IN the employ OF
/ West Bros. cotton factors and commits
sion merchants. and had risen to the posi-
/ ton Of bO0kkeeper. where he showed
/ himself faithful. prompt and accurate IN
| the discharge OF his duty. He was highly
! esteemed by all who knew him for his
amiability of disposition and no
biIity of character. About a month
/ ago he went to Tybee on vacation for the
| benefit Of his health. and would have re-
! turned to his business next week. The
| sacrifice Of his life in an heroic attempt TO
/ save the life Of another is a sad and terri
| Die fatality, inspiring sympathy among
! those who loved him. His funeral VIII
] take place this morning at 10 o'clock.
