These faures show how the Southern
winter travel is increasing.
1t is claimed that they do not begin
to represent the number Of persons
who have arrived there, for there are
board houses sufficient to accOmmO-
date very nearly as many persons as the
hotels represented IN the table, that have
been full all winter, 10 say nothing of the
thousands who pass through without stop
ping. The hotels claim also that their
business has been even far better than the
figures show, as it mas been more perma-
nent, as a general thing, their guests re-
naming longer than ever before.
MIR A. L. Reed, passenger agent OF the
Ceast Line system, during a conversation
with "A NEWS reporter yesterday, said
that from the best information he could
gather it might be safely said
that the number Of visitors in
Florida this year is from 50 to 40 per
cent. greater than last year, which
Itself showed a marked improvement
over all previous years. The travel over
the Coast Line this year is about - per
cent greater than last year, and last year
it was % per cent. heavier than any pre-
ViOus year. Heregards the Florida travel
as still in its infancy, and expects to see a
still grsater increase next year. Florida,
ne says. has Kept pace with the increased
number of visitors. Magnificent hotels,
built with all the modern improvements,
are springing up and offer greater induce
ments every year to seekers after health
| or pleasure. All these hotels are doing
well, and as they increase in numbers
the travel seems to increase proportion
ately,
Another gentleman, who was in a posi-
tiOn to speak knowingly, said that while
the daily hotel arrivals in savannah
make good showing, yet the hotels
that have been erected in Florida
have drawn many tourists away
from here who otherwise would
have stayed, perhaps severa
weeks. Az one time most travellers who
stopped III Savannah never remained less
than three or four days, and often stayed
so long that their faces became familiar
This is no longer the case. "While the
cuisine furnished by the hotels here" sail
the gentleman, sis as good as that to be
found anywhere IN the South, vet the
modern structures and many induce
ments held out to tourists in Florida II
the way of amusement, music, hops anC
other means for social enjoyment, natu-
rally have a tendency TO draw them there
and keep them" He believed the climate
OF Savannah TO be Just as good as that o
Florida and its natural advantages as ;
winter resort just as great. and he had nc
doubt that with a little effort, and an adj
eQuate hotel, Savannah could procure hel
share OF the rapidly Increasing patronage
that is now lost.

The tide of Florida travel has turned
northward. Snd "hOmeward bound" IS
the word among those who have escaped
the rigors Of severe Northern winter in
the salubrio1s climste Of tn "sunnY
South" North bound trains are crowded
daily with people who have spent the
winter In Florida aud at New Orleans,
and the hotel registers re filled every
night with the autographs of tourists
who have turned their backs reluctantly
upon few months pleasantly
spent under soft Southern skies and
are returning hOmeward to take up the
cares and perpleXities OF business where
they laid them down in early winter.
The Florida travel increases every year,
and the number Of NOrtherners who take
the few weeks of rest indispensable to
every active business man by coming
South during the winter, and thereby es-
Gaping the excessive cold weather ana
getti'g the needed rest at the same time,
is increasing rapidly. The number of in
valds who come south for pulmonary
complaints is also increasing, and the
business OF the transportation lines lead

over all others.

A few minutes after 10 o'clock last
nig1t Policeman Mathis, pairoIlins un1cY
the factors discovered a pile Of cotton
lying ia the area in front Of DaAiu
pickery, at the foot Of Whitaker street, on
tre. The cotton had been used at the
fire eXtinguisher test in front Of the Ex-
change in the afternoon, and had after
wards been repacked ana taken 10 the
pickery. The precautlon had been taken
TO leave it outside Of the building for fear
that a smouldering spark might ignite il
and set the place on FIRE.
The precautiOn was a wise one, and
prevented a eOnflagratiOu that might have
resulted ia heavy loss OF property. The
work OF the eXtinguisher was not com
plete, and the smouldering spark finally
burst into a blaze. Policeman Mathis
summoned Policemen Fleming ami Har-
rngtOn TO his assistance, and with a few
bucketiuls Of water succeeded IN extin-
gushing the blaze.

sometimes Char-Freitag, from al old word
meaning penitence. The ritual observed
in both the Greek and Latin churches
has special reference TO the circumstances
of ChrsCs death and entOmbment. On
Good Friday morning, after the chanting
of the prophecies fOretelling the death OF
Christ, and of the recital of his passion,
takes place the alteration, or kissing Of the
cross. In honor Of the redemption accom-
plished on Good Friday, it was customary
in the early church to release public
penitents from their probation and the
accommodated from their ban. The
first Christian Emperors not only closed
the law courts during Holy and Easter
week, but h0nOred the anniversary by
liberatlng from prison ana recalling from
exile all but the worse criminals. In
England add Ireland Good Friday Is a
legal holiday as wen as fast dav.
