BISHOP CIR 81 SUCCESSOR.
Talk About Bishop Beoker's Appoint

Talk About Bishop Beoker's Appoint
ment to the Savannah See.
It is generally stated in Catholic circles
that the Rt. Rev. Thomas A. Becker,
Bishop Of Wilmington, is to be transferred
to the See of Savannah, to take the place
made vacant by the elevation Of Bishop
Gross to the Archbi5hOpric OF Oregon, and
that the Rev. John Foley. ID. D., pastor
OF st. Martins church, Baltimore, is To be
elevated to the position OF Bishop OF Will
mingt0n. The announcement Of the
rumOr in the News yesterday created
some stir here. A Wilmington special
says that inquiry as to the authenticity OF
the rumOr WAS made at Bishop Becker's
residence. The Bishops secretary said be
had heard the rum0rs, but was not at lib
ertv TO give any information concerning
them. Bishop Becker is we'll known and
very popular among Pr0testants as well
as Catholics. During the late Penary
Council he took prominent part in all
the debates and WAS looked upon as one
Of the leaders. His sermon on "Vhe
Church and Science" Was great effort.
and drew together perhaps the largest
congregation at any OF the public sessions
OF the synod. In Wilmington his loss will
be felt very much. He Is the only Cath0-
lie Bishop Wilmington has ever had,
having been appointed 20 that see IN 1865

Insurance Against Storms

The recent increase in number and Sc
verify of destructive windstorms in Geor-
gia is startling. Within the memory of
our middle aged citizens storms of mag
nitude visited our neighbOrhOOd at inter-
walls of not less than twenty years, but
lately they seem to have outgrown any
such law of periodicitY. During the past
fifteen years wiz: 1871, 1881 and 1851,
three exceedingly severe storms have
visited savannah, occasiOniug immense
damage TO property. IL is difficult to sat
isfactorily trace the exact causes of these
atmospheric Outbursts and their growing
frequency, though numerous theories are
advanced, but certain il is that they have
now reached pass which makes it al
most as necessary TO insure against them
as against fire. Therefore prudent prop
erty owners win be gratihed to learn
through an advertisement in another col
umn, that Messrs. r. II. FoOtman & Co.,
are prepared 10 issue storm policies on all
kinds Of desirable property in the Home
Insurance Company OF New York. and
the PhRniX Insurance Company Of Brook
lyn. Their rates are low, and their poll
cies liberal in their conditions. MessTs.
FOOtman K Co. and the two companies
named have been too long aud popUlarly
known Ia this community 10 require any
communication at our hands. We simply
call attention TO the advertisement, and
feel sure that the valuable and needed in
demnity they now offer will be eagerly
awaited Of by conservative people.
