The Best Time to Buy valuables

This is the dull season OF the year. This
information is not exclusive or from inspi-
ration, Trade is pretty well as far as it
goes-but il doesn't go far The purchasing
power OF a dollar now is something surpris-
ing, simply because therear more dollars
than trade IL word, we are now inclined
to give very large dollars worth for 100
cents just to keep things moving. Within
the past few months we have added to our
stock III various ways, new ideas, new con-
ceits, new tricko and quips in jewelry, and
so on. We've got to keep up, you know,
with the strides OF inventive and artistic
excellence. Our stock is worth looking
over, and, as intimated, we aoiH sell uer-V
close to move some of it. This is e good
time to renew household articles. Solid
Silver table ware, superb plated ware,
ornamental goods. For personal use or
adornment we offer line par erceiLence e
Ladies' Gle Gold, Silver and Diamond
Jewelry, Ladies Watches, Chairs and
Charms Gents Watches ana Jewciry, etc
All of these articles can be bought cheaper
now than when trade gets bri>ker. Some
body will get married next fall-buy the
presents you intend to give nor. They
will keep, and you will save money.

H. l.. SCHREINER.

The Old Time Dealer From Savannah
is Enthusiastic About the Steinway
and the Gabler Pianos, and Also Says
q Goo- Word for German Pianos,
Which He Declares Stand Well and
Give Good Satisfaction in the South
H. L. Schreiner, one Of the old-time deal
ers of the south, where he is very popular
and much respected, called on us this week.
He said that the report of his having
gone to Europe was entirely unfounded. 1t
probably was caused by the fact that he
had come on last March to meet his son,
who had come from Europe. Mr. Schre liner
gives a very hattering account of the con
dition of business through the south. He
says that a larger trade has been done in
his section OF the country during the past
season than for many years. He thinks
prospects are splendid.
He sells the pianos of Steinway, Gabler
and two German makes, Ernst Rosenkranz,
of Dresden, and G. Heyl, of Leipzig.
Mr. Schreiner is certainly an enthusiast
about the Steinways Speaking of them
he said:
II have done splendidly with the
Stenway pianos the past year; better
than ever before, and have sold more than
have ever been sold before in any one year
in Savannah. In my part of the country
there is no question but toat the finest peo-
pile will buy nothing else but Steinway
You see when they come north every one,
all their friends and acquaintance, tell
them that the Steinway is the best piauo
made, and they go home impressed with
that fact The reputation south of Stein
way is unapprOachable True, their instru-
ments are hgh-priced and everybody can
not purchase one. | telH you there is no
question, the Steinway piano is superior to
every other, and it leads the world
In Europe all the leading makers admit
this, and nearly all of them advertise that
they make their instruments on the Stein
way system. Besides the Steinway | sell
the Gabler pianos. | have sold these in
struments for great many years. have
been III Savannah twenty-six years, and
for twenty years of that period | have sold
Gabler pianos | have disposed of hundreds
of them | consider them among the most
popular and reliable instruments made in
this country to-day. All those who have
bought them praise them in the highest
terms.
Besides the Steinway and the Gabler
pianos, | sell two German makes; Rosen-
kranz of Dresden and Heyl of Leipzig.
All the talk about the German pianos
not standing in tune, and not being able to
stand the climate, Is utterly untrue, at least
SO tar the south is concerned | have
sold them for the past eighteen years, and
never mad the least trouble with one yet. In
my store in Savannah have a Bechst lin
grand, which took a gold medal at the
great fair there in 1872. 1t is in fine con
dition to-day and thoroughly serviceable.
There is no doubt but that if the duty
were lowered, great many more
foreign pianos would be imported than
now.
Frankly, do not consider the German
pianos equal TO our first-class American
instruments, but they are far better in

terday that he would try to indict GoldtAl

grand jury for assault with intent to mur-
der. Quinn came upon Golden and another
negro in the act of stealing the metal The
unknown negro fired shot at the officer

Melons Getting scarce Here.

Watermelons which have been selling all
the season for 10 cents and IS cents brought
25 cents readily yesterday The cause of
the rise in the market is due mainly to the
limited supply The Southwest Georgia
melon is no longer on the Savannah market,
and the supply VIII now have to come from
the growers around the city. The South
west Georgia shippers find that the big
markets will consume every melon they
will be able 70 transport. The demand IN
creases as the fruit becomes scarce, and the
shippers get really more for the late than
for the early CROP. There are not a great
many extensive melon growers around Sa-
vannah aud from now until the close of
the season there will be but a few on the
market. However the variety is fine aud
the prices will ra &c high.

Justice Overtakirg the Trio Who

In the superior court Yesterday George E.
Scott, Joseph Scales and j. Crosby were
arraigned for the brutal assault made upon
the three negroes on Anderson street shortly
after midnight on the morning of July /.
Tho charge was assault with intent to muir
der
The state elected to try Scott first, and he
was put upon trial which lasted nearly tho
entire day, and found guilty.
The testimony disclosed that the assault
was unprovoked and brutal, in which a
knife played a bloody part, jeff Waters re
ceiving SIX or seven stabs in the back and
shoulders. PInckney, almost a helpless
paralytic, was badly bruised about the head
ard stabbed in the arm. He has not yet re
covered. Antony Owens, an old gray-haired
truck farmer, was knocked down with a
bludgeon and staOled in the abdomen, and
during the night two others we're assaulted
by the trio. but not seriously hurt. Scales
received a stab in tho breast, and for time
his life was despaired Of. 1t is claimed that

A STRUGGLING INVENTOR.
BeulinR Perfects a More Practica
Model of Life Raft.

BeulinR Perfects a More Practical
Model of a Life Raft.
H. Beuling, the sailor who has been so
industriously working to perfect his model
of life raft, has completed very practi-
cal one, which is a great improvement over
the crude one first attempted There is
room for more economic and perfect finish,
but the inventor has come to that point
where he lacks money to perfect his inven-
ton. As a matter OF fact, a worthy young
man, who makes his living by days work,
kindly volunteered him some of his savings
to enable BeuiIng to get the material to
make the present model, and Beuling went
to Charleston yesterday to see what he
could do there.
A MORNING NEWS reporter visited Beu /
ings little cabin, which is both workshop
aud bel chamber in the rear of No %
Broughton street, day or two ago. Beul-
ing exhibited and explained the workings of
his life raft. There were two trunk shaped
objects III the room, and the inventor pro
ceeded to open them out, when the
trunks became boats which linked to-
gether made the perfect catamarau.
Unfolding the tops there were row-locks,
and the boats rapidly filled with air. AT
the bow and stern were oil receptacles at
tached SO that in a rough sea tine occupant
of the life raft could regulate a supply to
soothe the troubled waters. The double
hulls amidships are of wood, copper lined,
and provided zach with side boards to
prevent the raft from rolling. Spars and
sails were INSIDE the boat, which is of can
vas fore and aft Of the hull proper The
arrangement of the holds is such that 3OC
pounds of water and provision can be car
ried and the life raft still retain its buoy
anCY.
