THE RAIN BEGINS.
Storm Moving From the Cult In
This Direction.

This Direction.
Up to s o'clock last night .06 of an inch
OF rain had fallen during the day, the sum-
ming up of light showers, and
showers were never more vel
were yesterday. The only fault that could
be found was that they were too light.
Enough rain fell though, to make the dis
couraged trucker more cheerful Late last
night heavy rain set in, and was still fall
ing at o'clock this morning.
Signal Officer Salisbury said, last night,
that there is a very low barometric pressure
on the gulf coast and every indication that
storm contering there will extend in this
direction, and it is likely to give this section
moro rain than it has had lately.
The spring has been unprecedentedly
dry in the country about Savannah. nor
has the lack of rain been confined to this
locality. Observer Salisbury said that the
bulletins Of the signal service show that
there has been agreat deficiency all through
the cotton regions, more particularly in
Northern Arkansas and Mississippi, Ala
bama. the Carolnas and Southeastern
Georgia, where the amount of deficiency
has ranged from to 10 inches. In all the
localities, except the one last mentioned,
ample showers during the past week have
iChoNbu Jilc tACbnSlN6 uIOuHlb, Dub up 10
yesterday no rain had fallen in the vicinity
of Savannah for an unusually long period,
and the deficiency for the season on Tues
day was II inches. This is confirmed by
the truck farmers, who say that up to a
week ago the crops were doing we'll but
that lately the lack of rain has told severely
upon their gardens, and unless rain falls
copiously within very few days, their loss
will be very great.
While in the South there has been such
lack of precipitation, Observer Salisbury
said that in the North there has been an
| excess. This, he stated, is owing to the
fact that during the past two months all
the cyclonic atmospheric disturbances have
passed over the northern part of the United
States, and no decided storm has visited
this region since Jasper Festival week, when
one came from the gulf, and the three days
rain Of that time was the result. The same
low pressure is now noted at Jupiter Inlet
and Key West, and it indicates another
storm from the gulf, but not so heavy
as the one of February.
The signal service chart prognosticating
the temperature for May was explained by
Observer Salisbury. 1t is based upon the
average observations for seventeen years.
1t indicates a low temperature between the
9th and 18th and between the 18th and 18th
while the hot days will be ON the Goth, 25th
Goth and the S1st The summary of the
chart is as follows: Changes of mean tenn

not occur; possible range of maxima tenn
peratures between 81, 1880, and 9S', 1878
possible range Of minima temperatures be
tween 49,, 1877, and 81, 1873; possibl,

PAVE THE STREETS.
That is What Progressive Taxpayer
Advises the Council to Do.

That is What Progressive Taxpayer
Advises the Council to Do.
Editor Morning Ne,Us: think Savan-
nahians ought to appreciate any effort
made in behalf Of street paving. City
Council has made a start, and can immor-
talize itself by continuing the good work.
Our streets are a disgrace to Savannah.
Housekeeping is q burden to our ladies,
outdoor exercise is very unpleasant, while
pleasure driving. through our streets is
seldom thought Of. Strangers are not well
impressed with our city, and naturally a. k
the question, why other cities of our size
can pave and beautify their streets, while
we eat, drink, and breathe through cloud
of dust If there is no money to do this
work, let the city make an assessment for
that purpose, and | believe nine-tenths of
the people will approve of it, Like all
other cities, we have some croakers and a
few men that think the city ought to be
run for their special benefit, but such
men are only good to themselves
and the Mayor and Aldermen can
afford to give them plenty of room.
We have good water, and if council will
pave our streets, take the old railing from
around our squares and put up some more
of those signs Keep off the grass" we will
have beautiful city. | own twenty odd
houses, ard | am convinced that the paving
of the streets will increase their value, and
the money spent will be well invested.
What a city we would have with our streets
paved and our new hotel built. We would
not be able to accommodate the Northern
travel in the winter, and our own people
would not rush off the early part of every
summer to spend their money away from
home Moving the dry sand will not affect
the health of our city, AID our city fathers
can pave several streets before the summer
is over. TAX PAYER.

Tune of to 3-Butler Retires Eleven
Men on Strikes, and Only Five Hits
Made Off His Delivery.
Five hundred people saw pretty game
at the ball grounds yesterday. Savannah
won, but it was nothing like Tuesdays
walk-over. The visitors pulled themselves
together and played hard to win, but they
could not face Butler with any show of
success. Eleven men went out on strikes,
and only five safe hits were made off the
plucky little boxman.
The locals felded rather loosely, and their
error column was larger than it ought to
have been. Merritt pitched for Augusta,
and he held the Savannahs down to eight
hits. A triple play by Merritt, Stallings
and Burns was one of the features of the
game. The following is the score:

FOUGHT TO GET AWAY.
officers Hanlsy and Basch Tackle a
BAD Negro.


Detective Mike Hanley and Constable 81
Basch had a difficult time yesterday in ar
resting Mark Stephens. a negro refugee
from Liberty county, at the Savannah
Brick Manufacturing Company's yards.
A bench warrant for Stephens arrest was
put in the hands of Deputy Sheriff 0. G..
Smith, who came to Savannah, and en-
ployed Detective Hanley TO locate and ar
rest stephens, who is charged with stealing
rice. Mr. Hanley got Mr. Basch TO accom-
pany him.
When the officers reached the yard, Hun
ley jumped out of the buggy, aud going up
to Stephens laid his hand on the Negroes
shoulder and told him to consider himself
under arrest. The negro resisted, and
Basch, jumping out of the vehicle, went to
the detectives assistance. A motley crowd
of excited negroes, in which a loud-mouthed
Amazon was the nOisiest, encouraged
Stephens TO greater violence, and he was
biting and striking at the officers
Finding that rough means had to be en-
ployed, Basch gave the negro three heavy
blows on the head with billy" and even
then it was difficult TO persuade him to 60.
In the scufiie only one haudcuf could be
got on the negroes arm, and the key was
lost in the struggle. One negro on the
ground whom Detective Hanley knew
counseled Stephens TO submit to arrest.
Stephens excuse for declining to accom-
pany the officers was that he wanted to go
and get his coat. A boy was sent for it,
and the secret vas soon revealed. There
was loaded revolver in one of the pockets,
and had he been able TO have reached it, no
was desperate enough to have used it, The
prisoner was turned over to the Deputy
Sheriff from Liberty county later in the
day, and was taken to Hinesville with a
strong pair of handouts on him.
