ANIDEAL suATrERED.

She sits beside me In the square old pew.
Two little gray-gloved hands devoutly
hold
Her dainty prayer-book and her hymn-book,
too.
Warm sunbeams fall aslant her heal's
bright gold.
The preachers words sound very far away;
The sweet-voiced singers chant unheard
by me.
] watch my darlng's upward look and say
Within myself: "Oh, ] would were like
thee
All else forgot; thy thoughts have flown
above;
Too pure, too high for earth and such
as I.n
just then, with troubled eyes, my little
love
Leaned close and whispered, with a
smothered sigh:
THAT girl in sealskin just across the aisle,
Thinks | don't know it's plush! Well, |
should SMILE"

some one had been taken with hem

KcIative Value OF Testimony.

Robert Waters was before the Police
Court this morning for using profane Ian
guage on Fourth street Saturday night.
Officer j, j. Smith testified to the specific
language used by the accused MS charged in
the warrant. The accused denied the charge
iatly and swore that the language was used
by one Fitzpatrick, Another witness swore
that Waters did not use the language and
that Fitzpatrick did use it. \ line Of five
dollars was imposed.

Moro Having Mt Annapolis.

Four naval cadets some days ago went to
the room of Cadet Lewis briggs, fourth class,
at the Naval Academy, and gave him hard
beating. The case was reported and the
cadets charged are Benjamin Steber, Glen
Waters and Joseph j. Welsh second-class
men, and William 7. Gillespie, third class.
Mr.. briggs is the newly-entercd fourth
class man for whose hazing Cadet Henry A..
Wiley was some time ago dismissed, and it
is supposition that this brave assault by
four youngsters on one comrade is the out
come of that affair. 1t Is safe to say that a
court-martial will follow by order of Cap
tain Ramsay, the superintendent, aud dis
missal stares each Of the accused In the
face. The dispatches report that the Sec
ond-class men intend sending a protest to
the Secretary of the Navy, because men,
ber of the class is detailed nightly on guard
now to protect Mr.. briggs, a protest which
will probably bring sharp and decisive
response from Secretary Whitney.

Savannah morning news. [volume] (Savannah) 1868-1887, 1886-02-05

Mr.. j. A. W Gods, of New York, who is
well-known as the architect OF several
handsome buildings in this CITY, aud un-
der whose direction the Piney Woods Ho-
tel and the Mitchell House at Thomas
VILE were built, expects TO organize a
company for the purpose of building a
hotel in Savannah. MIR. Woods, who is
in New York at present, has been very
active in the several schemes for building
hotel here. He expects to organize his
company in that city, and is confident
that he will make his undertaking a
success.
He has secured the conditional refusal
OF the Chatham Academy and the Pavil-
ion hotel, with the view OF building the
hotel on the site occupied by those build
ings. What remains to be done now, so
far as the site 10 concerned, 10 to get the
Barracks property on such terms that it
can be transferred TO the Chatham Acad-
envy trustees for the use OF the public
schools. A proposition has been sub
mItted to the company owning that prop
erty, and the further prosecution OF Mr..
Woods undertaking depends upon its ac-
ton.
Some OF the holders of shares in the Bar
racks property have expressed their read
mess to accept Mr.. Woods offer. In fact,
several OF the largest shareholders have
said that they are willing to con-
tribute literally to hotel,
by donating some of their shares,
II one can be secured in any desi-
rable location by so doing. There APP
pears to be no doubt that hotel can
be had by promptly meeting
Mr.. Woods and his friends. He
says, in a recent letter, that if the site
bounded by South Broad, Drayton, Hull
and Bull streets can be obtained.
there will be no difficulty in get
ting what money is required. He must,
however, be in position to show his friends
that the enterprise will have the support
Of the people of Savannah to the extent
OF making it possible to get the site that
is regarded as the most desirable. 1t is
not proposed to solicit subscriptions from
the citizens of Savannah either 10 buy
the land or build the hotel, but, of course,
their subscriptions will be gladly
received il they desire to subscribe.
Mr.. Woods has been successful in
his other undertakings in this locality,
and there is no reason for thinking that
he will not be in this.

A Violin OF Riches.

There are great many thiHgs which
make people insane enough to commit
suicide, but perhaps there Is only one
case on record where a person committed
suicide because OF the possession of toe
much money. The case is that OF the In
diana farmer, George Keller, who killed
himself on Tuesday last because he bad
more money than he knew what to dc
with. He had all that most people think
is necessary to happiness. His posses
siOns were great, his children bright and
promising, and his wife amiabIe and de
voted. The only thing he complained OF
was that his possessions were too great
He does not appear to have realized that
it is much easier TO get rid OF riches than
to accumulate them, and that he could
have added greatly to tie comforts of a
great many people, and to his own happi-
ness, by distributing a portion of his
wealth among those less literally pro
yided for than himself. The world is made
up Of contrasts. What makes one happy
often makes another miserable. Ab0u
every one is struggling to increase his
wealth, and few seem TO know when they
nave enough. and yet here was a rich
man who could endure lite no longer he.
cause he had more property than he had
any use for. This case of Kellers will GO
a long way towards proving, in the opin-
ion Of many people, that no sane person
commits suicide.
