THE GALATIANS CLUB HOUSE.
To Have the Finest Place at Tybee
Work TO Begin at Once.

The Galatians are preparing for the sum-
mer at Tybee. Mr. @. B. Clarke, of the
firm of Wylly & Clarke, has just completed a
plan for a handsome club house and
pavilion, which the Chathams unanimously
adopted yesterday. 1t will be built at the
south end, near where the new hotel will
probably be erected. TIE railroad, if ex,
tended, will pass in front of the club house.
The building will cost 5000. 1t will be a
two-story frame structure, with large and
handsome pavilion that will accommodate
1000 people.
1.-The club house." said a member of the
Chathams last night, will be one
of the finest building at Tybee.
1t will be near the beach, and the
location for a club house could not
be better. An ocean view will be had, and
from the promenade that will extend all
around the blilding, both up and down
stairs, a more desirable view could not be
had. We hope TO have the club house com
pleted before May. Work will be begun at
once, in case the extension of the railroad is
determined upon"
The Chathams are confident that the
railroad will be extended, as the new hotel
cannot be built upon the site that the di-
rectors are about to decide upon unless the
road is extended.

COTTON MEN SET RIGHT.

The Investigation OF Mr.. Dougan's
Charges Against Messrs. Darcy and
Smith.
The directors of the cotton exchange
spent the most of yesterday afternoon in
vestigating the charge of attempt at fraud
in selling irregular cotton, preferred by P.
M. Dougan against d. Y. Dancy ana H. II.
Smith. The investigation was not con-
cluded until late last evening
The encounter last Monday between Mr..
Dougan and Mr.. Dancy and the latter
brother, r. K. Darcy, grew out of the
charges brought by Mr. Dougan.
The directors rendered tde following de-
cision:
"On investigating this complaint, the
board decides that the sale was made by
Mr.. Dancy without any knowledge that
the cotton was irregular, and the
evidence clearly proves that he was
entirely innocent of any intention to de-
fraud the buyer. In the case of Mr. Smith
the board decides that while he erred in not
notifying Mr. Dancy that the cotton was
mixed, the evidence proves that he made no
attempt to commit fraud, the samples by
which the cotton was sold having been
drawn by Mr.. Law, in some
bale having been drawn and
in some cases the poorest. Mr.. Smith ex-
planned the fact of the cotton having been
compressed to the satisfaction of tho board.
While Mr.. Dougan was evidently in error
in believing that an attempt had been made
to defraud him, the board is of the opinion
that his action in bringing the complaint
was undoubtedly taken in good faith, and
for the protection of the trade"

Boring with a Gimlet.

The work of laying the asphalt pavement
on Broughton street. east of Abercorn, will
begin tomorrow 1t IS said that the cross
ings of intersecting streets are not to be
asphalted, but are to be as heretofore, a
couple of rows of curbstones laid flat and
widened out with cobble stones 1t seems
that this is very small piece of business,
economically and otherwise. A good pave
ment is to be put down for quadrupsds, but
the bipeds are to continue to twist their
ankles on cobblestones. The same policy
was pursued on Congress street, where
pedestrians now cross in the roadway in
stead of on line with the sidewalk. 1t is
not too late to do what should be done with
the crossings of the interesting streets on
the line Of the asphalt pavement II is to be
hoped that the alderman or aldermen in
charge of this improvement will see that the
order is given to have the crossings as
phalted.

The unpleasant weather OF last week pre-
vented ladies from their usual shopping ex-

was light. 1t gave us, however, a desirable

finished nearly in one week. The custom
house and steamship companies have deliv-
cred to US very large c0nsignments, and tho

ab ut the lst proximo an assortment of
goods, the like of which has never been seen
in Savannah. Nice, new, clean goods, fresh
from the factory, no old BANKRUPT stock.
