Repainting Their Cars.

Every Savannah, Florida and Western
car that goes into the company's shops
for repairs now comes out with fresh
coat of paint Of the new standard color.
The color is Tuscan red, IA deep and rich
shade, the same as the Pennsylvania Cen
trail standard color. All of the gaudy
yellow stripping and imitation Of gold Leaf
scroll work on the passenger cars is beng
done away with. On the sides of the cars
there is plain line or two OF gold leaf,
and the number is in gold leaf. The new
style of painting is nothing ike so snowy
as the old style, and its very simplicity
makes the effect richer.
The numbering OF tenders is being dis
continued. 1t was found that mistakes
were frequently made through the mum
bers of the tenders being taken instead of
numbers on the engines. None of the
new tenders is numbered and the num-
bers are painted out on the old tenders as
they 90 to the shops.

The docket case against the ship
Tallahassee was partly heard by Mayor
Lester yesterday morning. Capt. Fisher,
Chief Engineer LeFeyre and mis- first as

iue steamships running by the wharves
faster than four miles an hour The en-
ginseTs testified that they only give barely
enough speed to the ship for her TO obey
her rudder while passing the wbarves.
Both the Ocean Steamship Company and
the Merchants and Miners Steamship
Company, which put the Tallahassee on
the docket, were represented by counsel.
A continuance of the case WAS asked

Baltimore, "a her FIRST officer is wanted AZ

made from artesian water has become
very popular, and there is a demand for
