DIAMONDS.

Watches and Diamonds Found in Tea
and Cotfee-A Novel Way of Intro
ducing Goods.
The names of all persons finding dia-
monds, watches, etc, are added to this list
daily. The Overland Tea Company. of
San Francisco, Cal, have refitted the store
No. 1lS Broughton street, between Bull and
Drayton streets, and in order to introduce
their goods this company put for thirty
days souvenirs i'll every can of tea and
coffee sold, such as solid gold, silver and
nickel watches, also genuine diamonds ia
solid gold setting; also money and many
other articles of less value. Every can con-
tains a souvenir. The Coffee. can and CON
tents weigh about three pounds; the Tea,
can and contents about one and one-half
pounds. This expensive and novel way of
advertising will be discontinued after thirty
days. and these really choice goods will be
sold strictly on their merits. but with
out the souvenir. OF course every
purchaser must not expect to get
a diamond or watch. This company
claim that they have just as good right to
give away watches, diamonds, or other
Jewelry and money, as their competitors
have to give away glassware Chromos, etc.

TWO VACANT CITY OFFICES.
The Council Not Yet Decided Whel
1t Win Fill Either of Them.

The Council Not Yet Decided When
1t VIII Fill Either of Them.
The vacancy in the Office of Chief Of
Police is being closely watched, and the
claims of the various candidates are being
pressed upon the members of cornell. The
Council has not yet given notice when it
will fill the office 1t will advertise for ap-
plications before an election is held, and
this will probably be done at its next meet
ing.
Gen. McLaws' friends are urging his fit
ness for the place and Mr.. Saussy's friends
are not idle. Maj. Brooks said last night
that he is not and will not be a candidate
for the office. The police are anxious for
Lieut.. Green's promotion, and it is not i'm
probable that he Will be elected.
The vacancy in the Health Board caused
by the death of DR.. Mcfarland VIII proba-
bly, be filled at the same time that chief
of police is elected. DR.. 7. j. Charlton and
Dr. W. H. Elliott are perhaps the most
prominent among those whose names are
mentioned in connection with the Office.

THE STATUE IN PLACE.
The bronze statue was placed in its posi-
ton on its pedestal yesterday, and was Gov
cred to await the unwilling ceremonies.
C,owds Of people gathered in the square to
inspect the magnificent work OF art. 1t was
the unanimous Judgment that the statue Is
a credit to the artist who designed 1t, and
to those who accepted his plans. The monu-
ment will be one of the things to see when
strangers visit Savannah.
CLEAR UP THE STREETS.
The celebration begins next Wednesday,
and there is therefore but a short time in
which 10 do such things as should be done
before that event While it would probably
be impossible to relay all the sidewalks that
have been disturbed in paving the streets
with asphalt, or take down the remaining
part Of the railing about johnson square,
vet all the loose materials, and the railing
that is down can be removed, and the streets
and lanes cleared of debris The energetic
head Of the Street and Lane Committee will
doubtless give this important matter his
