4 Quiet Sunday and the BaTrooms Gen
orally CIOsed-Ef OF the New Ordi-
nance.
/ The usual Sabbath quiet pervaded po-
I lice headquarters yesterday. The patrol
men had very little 70 do except TO cover
their districts. Only i've arrests were re-
ported up to - O'Clock last night, making
seven in all Tor the Mayors Court this
morning.
1t was very quiet day with
the barkeepers. The saloons were pretty
generally closed up, and the doors OF quite
q number were stOutly barred. some Of
them were closed on New Years day and
have not been omen since. South OF An
dersOu street the $500 license voted by the
City Council last Wednesday night has
closed mp about everything in the saloon
line. The liquor dealers in the extended
limits Of the city, south, only paid $50
license last year. The new ordinance in
creaees the license $3.50, which they say Is
iust that amount more than they can
stand. In consequence they have closed
their bars. Quite a number OF barrooms
north OF Anderson street are also closed.
There is good deal Of talk among the
liquor men as to whatthey propose doing.
There are rumors Of boycottng, but there
rs vet no organized movement in this di-
TO pay the State and county tax and 20 on
selling without a city license, intending
To take the matter into the courts If they
are brought up for violation OF the Ordl-
nance, and thus delay matters for year
until a new Council is elected. The deal
ers south of Anderson street claim that
they are unjustly Disseminated against
in having their tax raised $3.50, while
that OF dealers north OF An
derson street is raised only $lS5.
They have no police protection, no gas
or water privileges, and say they cannot
see why they Should bo asked to pay the
same tax as dealers in the heart of the
city. There mas been considerable said
about organizing movement among the
liquor men to carry the next municipal
election In their interests, and TO secure a
board OF Aldermen that will reduce the Ii
cense. Whatever is being done in this di-
rection. if there is any move, is being done
very quietly. Leading liquor men on being
asked in regard to their plans, have very
lit,le to say.

Projects for Railroads in China

The principal activity in connection
with giving China system of railroads
seems to prevail among those who would
be directly interested in building such
lines of road. But short time since
some attention was called to a project of
This kind IN America, the principal basis
of which would appen to be the desires
Of wOuld-be promoters There seems, in
fact. to be no immediate intention on the
part Of the Chinese gOVtFumenttoe embark
upon such an undertaking. Doubtless
the views of the governing classes are
widening npOr the subject, but as yet
military preparation in order to resist
foreign aggression seems 20 occupy their
attention. II is, however, announced
that delegates from the Erupp iron works
and number Of large German financial
institutions will jointly send representa-
tiYes to approach the Chinese government
on the subject of obtaining concessions or
contracts Tor railway construction.

MORTALITY AMoNs NEGROES.
Carolina DRrkeys Equally as Numerous
in Savannah as the Georgia Native.

Carolina DRrkeys Equally as Numerous
in Savannah as the Georgia Native.
Speaking of the death rate Of the colored
population Or. Mcfarland, health officer
Of the city, said that it is surprising how
many Of the colored people that die are
from South Carolina.
Ii would seem that the eoiOred people
over the other side Of the river come over
here to die. Carolina nativity is claimed
FOR almost as many negroes VINO die as
Georgia. From the death certificates it
would be inferred that Carolina darkeys
are in the majority in the colored pOpula-
tiOn Of Savannah.
II is possible that the death rate among
the blacks Of Georgia birth is much lower
than among those who come from the
northern side of the Savannah. Compari-
son shows that the blacks Of savannah die
but little faster than those OF Northern
cities. There they form but a very small
part of the total population, and scarcely
affect the death rate. Being about equally
as numerous in the Southern cities as the
whites, they raise the death rate very con-
siderably when not considered separate.
This cOmpilers OF comparative statements
do not do but always combine and average
the rate among the Two races.

a warning to kidnappers OF dogs, we pub
bhsh below from the code of Georgia, the
law on this subject as follows:

Macon special says that President
Livingstone and Mayor Price returned
from Augusta Saturday, and reported
negotiations between the Macon and Gov
ington and the city of Macon in regard to
the use Of the old Georgia franchise as
progressing favOrably. 1t appears that
there are four parties Interested, the two
already named, the Georgia road, and the
iessees who constitute the Central Rail-
road and Banking Company. The city
has already arranged to allow the Macon
and Covington TO cross the river and build
up to the old brickyard, and the only
point to be settled is their coming on to
an eligible point on the Central property.
