THE COUNTY'S FINANCES.
LESS THAN 5000 IN OUTSTANDING
UNPAID CLAIMS.

The September Election for the Issue
of County Bonds-How the Bonds
Will Be Issued, and some of Their
Features-Their Value as an Invest
ment Security.
Chatham county has hardly ever been in
a better condition financially than it isnow.
The tax digest forwarded to the comptroller
general a day or two ago showed a total of
over S25, OOO, 900 in taxable property, and
an increase of considerably more than ST.
100000 since a year ago. On July l the
outstanding unpaid claims against
the county were $52l 30 and
the cash in the county treasury
footed up SD, 772 35. Since then the county
has received about $4,000 81, 900 from the
sale of the balance of the old jail site and
$1,000 from other sources
The election to DECIDE upon the issue of
the proposed 100000 in > per cent. thirty
year bonds for the building of the new
urt house will be held Sept. 4. Tue bonds
which the county will issue in event the
people authorize it viii be a very desirable
security.
ENTIRELY OUT or DEBT.
The fact that the county is entirely out of
debt, and that the new bonds being
the only fixed Obligation that it has ever
assumed, reLdels them particularly de ira
BILE security for home Investment They
will be the only bonds available for inve,
ment that are exempt from taxation, except
state and United States bonds. They will
not be redeemabe until after the first ten
wears, and then at the rate of $1,000 per
year, to Toe bought in open market at par
value, with accrued interest, II any, or TO
be drawn by lot.
The rate Of interest will be !, per cent.
higher than the interest on state bonds,
which pay 4 per cent and sold for l04l5.
The coupons will also be receivable for
taxes and all dues ana debts to the county.
Another feature which will make Thorn a
more desirable security than Georgia
bonds is the fact that the county may be
sued to fulfil its obligations while
the state cannot be sued. They will bear
the same rate of interest as city of Savan-
nah bonds, but the latter are taxable and
are not receivable for taxes
A NEW FEATURE TO BE ADDED.
Another feature will be added at the next
session of the legislature which will render
them still more desirable. A bill win he
introduced permitting executors, admins
traitors, trustees and guardians TO invest in
county bonds, the same as in state and city
of Savannah bonds, which, under the pres
ent law, they could not do
The bonds will be issued as soon as posi-
bic after the election, in the event the
county authorizes it, so that work on the
new court house can begin the early part Of
next year. The plan of the commissioners
Is to pull down the present court house and
to erect an entirely new building from the
foundation up

Richard kirkland Acquitted of the
Charge of Receiving Stolen Goods
In the superior court yesterday, Richard
Kirkland, cotton buyer at No. 2O6 Bay
street, was tried and acquitted on the
charge Of receiving stolen goods. The prin-
cipal witness for the state was Ben Young,
a negro who was convicted and sentenced
to the penitentiary for ten wears for burg
larizing the store Of Ellis, Young & Co, ard
carrying off some four or five ca1di,s Of
tobacco. George Gillen, an accomplish,
was bailed out aud Jumped his bond, which
Kirkland got Mr. Guille Bourquin to give,
kirkland indemnifying him. A tag, alleged
to have come off the tobacco stuleI, was
found in Kirkland's warehouse by j. x.
Young, who, with 5. A. Adams and De-
tective Wetherhoru, visited Kirkland's
warehouse with a search warrant. The
case was vigorously contested. The jury
were out about an hour.

In addition to the above, gold medals have
been offered by Maj. j. W. Reilly, u. S. A, and
Mr. William Schweigert of Augusta, which will
be classified later. Other special prizes will be
awarded.
The parade and the review OF the troops
by Gov. Gordon will be one OF the features
of the encampment. The entire military of
the state and large detachments of South
Carolina troops are expected to be present
Charleston, although nothing has yet been
definitely sottled, is expected to send up
large attachments; Augusta will see to it.
Col. Daniel said, that the military enjoy
themselves while at the exposition
The commanders OF the Savannah mill
tary, most of them, are enthusiastic over

city will he fully represented There is a
strong friendly feeling existing between the
Augusta and Savannah military that is
likely to have its influence in accepting the
invitation. The exposition committee is
anxious to have the Cadets enter the drill
The Southern Cadets Of Macon areexpected
but their going is not fully decided upon.
Capt. Sims has been north for a couple of
weeks but is expected back in day or two,
and he may arrive here by to-day's New
York steamer.
The exposition is just booming, Col
Daniel said. Manager Ryckman and Gen
eral Solicitor Cohen are now in the north
working up the exhibition. The trouble is
going to be to take care of the exhibits, said
Col. Daniel, but the committee will do it if
it has to put up another building twice as
big as the original building.

TOBOGGANINa INTO THE SEA.
A Marine TOboggan That Would
Draw Well at Tybee.

The marine toboggan slide is a new insti-
tuition that is becoming popular in the north
and might become popular at Tybee One
at Bridgeport, Conn, is the leading attrac-
ton of the beach there. The artificial
slope rises from high-water mark to the
hight of thrty-two feet above it, where
there is a platform reached by flight of
steps. The chute itself is bu5 twenty inches
wide and contains wheels for the sleds to
run on. Any toboggan will answer the
purpose. The slide is open to all at certain
stages of the tide, but at high water none
are admitted but good swimmers. The
chute is rs feet long The toboggans start
at the signal given by bell,
only one being allowed to go at
a time; and on being projected
from the lower end, they rIcochet across
the waters for distance varying from rs
to l15 feet, skipping along like Il fiat pebble,
till the force acquired in the descent is lost,
after which the blther swlms ashore, pull
ing his sled after him. Several gen
tlemen who have seen the slide at Bridge
port have suggested that one at Tybee
would not only be a great source of amu,e-
ment, but it would also be paying affair.
