THE sUNKEN STEAMSHIP.
The Vessel Parity isaiscd and lowed
BnGk 10 The City.

The steam tug Republic was at work
all Monday night on the British steam
ship Benevolent, which was beached in a
sinking condition opposite Fort Ogle-
thorpe Sunday afternoon. The tug as
sisted her off the shoal on yesterday MORN
ing's Tide, and she was towed up to the
wharf OF the Central Cotton Press with
the lighters alongside.
1t was with difficulty that the Repu bile
managed 10 reduce the volume of water
In her so as TO enable the steyedores to
work. About 800 bales of wet cotton
we're taken ont OF the forward hold. A
further survey was held on the vessel by
the same surveyors who surveyed her on
Monday. and they recommended that be-
sides the vessels pumps. which were
being used, the extra pumps OF the tug
Republic should be Kept working until
the vessel is tree from water, and that the
Work OF dscharging the cargo be con-
tlnue until the leak is found.
Ii is with much difficulty that the steve
dores can do the work, as the bales are
swollen and some OF them have burst the
bands. The work is under the super
vision OF Capt. A. F. Churcaill, of Messrs.
Ward g. Churchill, wno have considerable
experience In this kind Of work, and it is
being carried on as expeditiously as pos
sible. The work will be continued day
and night until the leak is found and the
vessel can haul out for repairs.

COLD WAVE COMING.

A Regular Wild West Sweeping
Down Over the Country.
A breeze that would have been balmy
had it not been so brisk made outdoor
life anything but pleasant yesterday.
The atmosphere was warm enough, but
it was too full of dust. Half OF the people
predicted cold wave, and the business
tOlks along the Bay kept watching the
flagstaff on the signal office to see If a
flag was being hoisted. The highest ther-
mometer in Savannah during the day
was rs and the lowest so. At 10 O'Clock
last night the mercury was at IS.
At midnight 1t looked as if a cold wave
was on the way here, and the observer
said he would not be surprised if an order
was received this morning to hoist the
white flag with the black centre. There
was big fall in the temperature through
out the Northwest Monday night, and the
wave appeared to move down the MIssis-
slppi valley during the day.

PREPARATIONS FOR CELE-
BRATiNG THANKSGIVING.

Everybody VIII Indulge in the National
Bird-The Market Filled with Sacri-
fetal "Gobblers'-Marke Dealers
Baving Busy Time-The Way to Pre-
pare Thanksgiving Dinner.

regulated table tomorrow. The market
was full OF "gobblers" yesterday, and it
will be OVERLOOKING to-day. They are

sizes, and the marketers Will have a
busy time OF it this morning. The birds
are unusually plump this year, and look
as though they have been well fed. The
most OF them come from Middle and East
ern Tennessee.
SELECTING TURKEY.
To pick out q good turkey is high art.
various people have various ways OF tell
ing good bird from poor one after it
mas been dressed. Some smart marketers
tell tender fowl by the color OF its legs,
some by twisting the wings and pinching
the skin and smelling OF it. Some can
tell by the general looks OF it. Some can't
tell anything about it. There are good
many OF the latter class.
The market tais year is about the same
as II has been in former years. Live tur-
keys sell from 81 30 to So 30 per pair, and
from l213c. To 20c. per pound dressed.
THE AVERAGE PRICES.
A very good turkey can be had alive for
2per pair. English ducks are selling at
zoe. to 81 pair, and Musc0Yies from 81
to 81 % a pair. Geese are abundant and
are selling from 81 - to 81 80. Chickens
hold their own at the usual prices-50c.
per pair for half grown, Csc. for three
quarters grown, and 75c. 10 81 for full
grown. The ducks are plentiful and in
prime condition. Game is also plentiful
and sells readily.
There are 1000 turkeys in the market
tonight" was me estimate Of a leading
poulterer just as he was CLOSING up.
THE MARKET FULL OF GOBBLERs.
"fnere are more on tha way, though, -
be added, land the market will be more
than full tomorrow
The grocers lave full stocks OF Thanks
giving goods and the usual "fiXin's' for a
Thanksgiving dinner are to be had IN
abundance. Cranberrles are selling at
lOc. and l5c. per quart.
Outside OF the markets there are the
usual preparations TOR the observance of
Thanksgiving day. 1t being public
holiday the banks, public offices and
schools Will be closed, and very little
business will be done. The usual
Thanksgiving services will be held in the
churches. There VIII be services at

BAKEipS BRUTAL ACT.

Sentenced to Six Months for Beating
His Wife.
Henry Baker, the negro who tied his
his wife TO a tree on Monday, was ar
raigned in the City Court yesterday morn
ing. He was arrested BY Sheriff Roman
and Constable Jones. Baker is an old
darkey and his hut, Sheriff Roman says,
is the most dilapidated and squalid apol-
ogy for building he ever saw human
being live in. The old negro admitted
that he had struck his wife, but denied
that he had tied her to tree. She de-
clared that he treated her brutally, and
one OF her cousins corroborated the story.
Baker was not represented by counsel,
and was sentenced to six months in iail
aud twelve months on the chain gang.
