NEW COURT HOUSE PLANS.
Drawings OF the Proposed Building aud
What IL VIII Cost

A perspective drawing of the proposed
enlargement OF the court house from
plans suggested to the County Commits
sioners, some time ago, by Judge Harden
has been placed GU exhibition at Hamil-
toms jewelry store. The drawing was
made by Messrs. Fay 4 Eichburg, Il
Atlanta, who were the architects OF the
Telfair female hospital.
The plans provide for the con-
struction OF new court house
IN which the present building is
utilized, saving thereby, IL is esti-
mated, considerably more than half the
cost OF an entirely new structure. The
building 10 handsome in design. 1t will
contain on the first floor, in addition TO
the present offices, which will he consid-
erably enlarged, offices for the Sherlffs OF
both City and superior Courts and for the
County Commissioners, aud two large fire
proof vaults tor the records OF the Clerk of
the Superior Court ana Ordinary.
The court rooms on the second floor will
each have two large jury rooms, two
rooms for the use of attorneys aud Wit
uesses. and TWO rooms for judges offices,
and the hearing Of causes
IN chambers and also an Office for the
Solicitor General. The third story VIII
contain large hall tor bar library aud
a suite Of rooms TOR n respectable janitor
and his family.
The building Will be furnished with all
modern improvements in the way OF heat
ing and cooling apparatus and plum bng,
and will form one OF tue haudsomest
buildings IN the State. Its cost Will not
exceed $4,000 repros snling tax OF
not quite PC, on the 500 NJ
property, and can be fully paid for in
thirty years. Tho utilizing or the present
building reduces the cost TO less than
one-halt OF what 10 would require to build
an entirely new structure either on the
present or some other site. No action
has Yet been taken rs 90 what plan will
BE- adopted, and Will not be until the bill
now before the Legislature has been
passed.

The Thought OF His Life Being Insured
Makes a Well Man sick.

A singular incident, illustrating the
effect which the mind has upon the physl-
cal system, occurred few days ago. A
prominent insurance agent on Bay street
has friend whose life he wished to III

business man, robust, and one whom any
company would consider a desirable
"risk." The matter was talked over and
the amount OF the policy was fixed A
physician examined the gentleman and
pronounced him in perfect health. day
or two later the agent called upon his
friend to get his signature TO the policy,
which had been made out. The young
man said that he felt sick and asked the
agent 10 come around again in afeW days
Three or four days elapsed. In the mean
time a number OF acquaintances who
dropped in TO see the gentleman on busi-
ness remarked that be looked badly.
"You are not looking well. What is the
mstter?" he was asked dozen times a
day.
But he could not tell. Although he
suffered no pain, he knew that he was
sick. The next time the agent called be
WAS told by his friend that the matter
would have to be declared oil.
II have no one TO leave the money TO-,
and thinking about getting my lite in
sured has made me think about dying.
You can see for yourself that am a very
sick man, and il ! take out a policy | be-
licve / will die. | am sorry if | have
given you any trouble, but don't think |

The affair had preyed upon his mind
until he was really sick, and the agent
now has on his hands policy all filed up

DRAINING THE LowLANDs.
The Work ~ Isle of Hope, Cedar Ham
mock, Montgomery and Bethesda.


mock, Montgomery and Bethesda.
At the last meeting of the County Com
missiorers County Surveyor Tebeau sub
mlttei report in regard 10 the drainage
of the lowlands in the vicinity Of Isle Of
Hope, Cedar Hammock, Bethesda and
Montgomery.
''The drainage OF Isle Of Hope,'
he says, "wlll require about fifteen
days work, which will entirely relieve
the middle portion Of the island of the
water which has lain in ponds or
old drains for several years.
The drainage of Cedar Hammock
Will require 10 or II days. With this
amount Of work the immediate surround
ngs will DO relieved OF water for some
two or more years.
at Montgomery the whole drainage
can be accomplished in about five days.
AT Bethesda | find more water lying
within One-half mile of the orphan House
than at all the other suburbs Of the coast
line. This portion OF the coast tor TWO
miles lying between the CITY and Subur-
ban railway on the west and Isle OF Hope
creek on the east, is q continuation Of
ponds and boys which are now full or
water, and if the rainy season, which
has continued now Tor about eight weeks,
should be followed by long dry and hot
term those waters by the middle Of Sep
TENDER would be dried of by evaporation
and absorption, and the result would
be possibly season or
chill and fever in September and October,
followed by typhoid and pneumonia in the
winter. This Is a piece of work which, in
my Judgment, should be attended TO i'm
mediately, as there is no community in the
country so deserving Of consideration aud
so unable 10 help ITSELF
The drainage at Isle of Hope Is very
nearly finished, only about three days
work yet remaining to be done. The next
work will be at Cedar Hammock, where
operations will probably begin tomorrow.
The country lying between the larger riV-
er and the Montgomery road has not been
drained since 1850.
The bitches were originally INSTRUCTED
by the military works during the war and
grew up with trees and weeds 80 that they
were completely filed in. The work OF
reopenlng them was 80 great that 1t has
never been attempted The drainage at
Cedar Hammock, which IL will occupy but
comparatively short time to complete,
will be finished in a week or so at the
farthest. when the work OF draining the
lands about Bethesda will begin. The
work is Of the greatest Importance and
will be pushed until all the low lands are
drained and relieved of the water which
renders them dangerous to life and health.
The work just south Of the city, which
was suspended because OF the damage IL
would cause TO the innumerable small
crops, will be resumed as soon as the
crops are harvested
