The Great southern Yacht club

Editor Morning Aegs; we read with
extreme qualification in one of your re-
cent weekly dec. 14) issues the an
nouncement that yacht club, worthy
not only of our national fame as ocean
yachtsmen, but also as the hOspitable
'Erendezvous" for those loyefs OF the
noble sport who live beyond the seas,
was about being established in our
Southern waters, in fact in the neighbOr-
hood of Dungeness, at the southern ex-
tremity Of Cumberland Island, and also
gladly bear testimony TO the very graphic
historical sketch which prefaced your an
nOuncement of the location and the de-
scriptiOn of it as one of the most
beautiful, az well as "ftting" to be
found in the South. WitA almost cores
bonding regret, therefore, have we read
in q jacksonville paper a somewhat "carp-
ing'' notice, headed Crank Burglary" OF
meeting of yachtsmen Ia kew York,
who proposed to name their club 'The
Florida Yacht Club" the graYamen OF
the offense being the taking OF the name
of our sister State in vain in the Connec-
ton aforesaid. With the very apt quota
ton from Shakespeare, which forms
caption to the article, we have nothing to
say. we do not know, indeed. whether
the gentlemen alluded to in New York
Fernandina or are interested in the much
larger and .'whole-embracing" enter
prise announced in your columns;
but we sincerely hope that while SO
many more lifting names could be found
for an all=embraGing enterprise and OF
such magnitude), that the promoters of
the Yacht Club designed to adOrn the
most beautiful of our sea islands, will
crafty the sensibility of your Jacksonville
contemporary by emitting all mention of
either his town or State threatened with
frank burglary!') and link the fame of
their magnificent project with some name
more acceptable, because cosmopolitan,
than either "FlOrida or Georgia." how
ever dear and hOnOred the latter may be
by their respective citizens. Yours re-
spectfully, a GEORGIAN.
The Assistant Chief Fireman's Duties.
Editor Morning NelCS: In your issue of
to-day in reporting the fire department,
YOU stated that the Assistant Chief was
call man, and was only paid when on SER
vice at a fire, which looks as if he had
nothing to do with the department out
side of a fire. The party who gave such
information made a mistake. The Ord-
nance says the Assistant shall assist the
Chief. and in his absence perform the du-
ties of Chief, which has been done in
number of instances. | did not intend to
notice the article, but meeting friends on
the streets and hearing the remark, 81
see you only get paid now when you work
at a fire." compelled me TO place the AS
sistants position in its proper light.
