NO VERDICT FOR scHorTKY.
He Fails to Get Damages from the
Tybee Railway Company.

Iypeo halfway company.
The jury in the damage suit of Schottky
VS.. the Savannah and Tybee railroad COM
pany brought in verdict yesterday for the
railroad company, Schottky being unable
to obtain a seat owing to the crowded con-
dition of train coming from Tybee to Sa-
vannah refused to surrender his ticket, and
was told that he would be elected from the
train If he did not give up his ticket. He
kept his ticket and got off at Fort Barlow.
From there he walked to the city He
claimed that the road being rough and the
night dark he fell and injured himself, from
which prolonged sickness resulted. The
company claimed that Schottky was told at
Tybee that another train would follow but
he chose to take the crowded train. The
company also claimed that the night was
moonlight, and no damages constructive or
compensatory should be awarded. Schottky
sued for $1,000 damages.
The court, after citing authorities In the
case, concluded its charge as follows:
Our conclusion is that a passenger who goes
upon O railroad car, assuming las no has the
right in the absence of information or evidence
to the contrary to assume) that he will be fur
nished with a seat, may rghtfully refuse to de-
liver up his ticket If seat be not provided, but
that passenger who goes upon railroad car
with the knowledge that a seat cannot be Sc
cured, valves his right to this accommodation,
and may be expelled II he defines to surrender
his ticket provided, however, he is not exposed
to any unnecessary or unavoidable peril. IL Mr..
Schottky knew before the train left Tybee that
the cars were full and that he could not obtain
a seat then he waived his right to a seat. And
II he refused on this account to deliver up his
ticket to the conductor. the conductor had the
right to expel him from the car, exposing him,
however, TO no greater peril than was neces-
sary It is not required that he should be
put off at station. 1t was required,
however, that he be put off at q
place which, In view of the locality and of all
the circumstances was as reasonably safe and
fit for the purpose as was practicable. If he
was put off in an improper place, a place more
unfit or more unsafe for the purpose than some
other that might have been chosen, then the
exposure on that ground was illegal, and would
give him right to damages But il he was put
off at place as reasonably safe and fit as could
be secured practically for that purpose, then his
expulsion was legal and rightful, II he went on
the cars and knew that he could not get seat.
II on the other hand it does not appear that
Mr.. Schottky knew before the train left Tybee
that the cars were full, and that he could not
procure a seat, then he had right to a seat and
had the right to retain his ticket if the seat was
not furnished him, and the conductor had no
right to put him off. He would then be entitled
to damages"

THE FAvoRIrE ICE CREAM.
The Kinds of Flavor that Most People
Like.

The Kinds of Flavor that Most People
Like.
"Peach cream is the most popular now"
said pretty young clerk in an ice cream
saloon yesterday.
1--WE sold any quantity of strawberry
cream during the strawberry season, but
since then it has played out and everybody
takes to peace. We sold good deal of
banana cream too, some time ago, but
we have so few calls for it now
that we make no more during the season.
Pineapple cream sells readily when the fruit
first comes into market, but somehow the
people soon get tired of it. We keep va
nilla, chocolate, lemon and peach on hand,
and we rarely have calls for other flavors.n
"The pistashio is taking with Savannah
ianS just now. 1t is mors properly, though,
a winter cream. In the winter season we
sell pistashio and tutti frutti more than
any other kind. During the theatrical sea-
son we are run almost to death. We have
sold as much as eight gallons of cream here
in one night to people who are returning
from the theater. Now measure this out
In saucers and it would accommodate a
long line of people.
Gentlemen rarely ever mix their cream,
hut the ladies are not satisfied unless they
have some of every kind. They are fond
of chocolate. The most popular cream the
season round though, is vanilla. There is
nothing that beats il. The most cream is
sold in August. that is, if the weather is
dry and hot as it usually is. The hotter
and dustier it is, the greater are our sales.
We sell 10 cent and 20 cent saucers,
but it is only the children
that take the 10 cent saucers
A grown person, unless unaccustomed to
taking cream, wants more than 10 cents
worth. Why always want two saucers
myself, and the girls say | am a rather
modest cream consumer. The best and
most sensible way TO take cream is to sip it
modestly. Never take more than half
spoonful at sip. When ore takes more,
they feel warmer and great deal worse for
having taken it, One should never take
cream hurriedly. 1t is dangerous. Five
minutes is not too long time for one to
take full saucer

AMONG THE YACHTsMEN.
A Cruise South from Beaufort-The Re
gatta on the Fourth.

A Cruise South from Beaufort-The Re-
gatta on the Fourth.
The yacht owners of the Savannah and
Isle of Hope yacht clubs held meeting at
the office Of Commodore r. NJ. Demere
yesterday. Vice Commodore Kinsey pre-
sided and w. D. Johnston acted as secretary.
The invitation of the Carolina club to rem
devious at Beaufort was discussed, and by
a unanimous vote the secretary was in
structed to notify the club that the Savan-
nah yacht owners will accept the invitation
conditioned upon the Carolina yacht club
meeting them at Beaufort for cruise south
ward, and that IN the event that this propo-
sition is satisfactory the Savannah fleet will
leave here on Monday, July 8.
1t has been learned that the following
yacht owners, and possibly others, will go
over to Beaufort with their yachts: Com
modore K. NJ Demere with the Ocean
Queen, Vice Commodore Kinsley with the
Eta, Capt Frank S. Lathrop with the
Glance, Capt. +. G.. Strachan with the
Thistle, Capt. John H. Dews with the Zinga
and Capt. +. G. Wyly with the Naomi.
Their respective crews have not yet been
made up.
The desire of the Savannah yacht owners
is to spend a couple of days at Beaufort
and have an interstate regatta there, and
rangements made for big excursion from
Savannah to Beaufort to witness the
regatta,
1t is also stated that after the regatta the
two fleets will cruise southwark as far as
Ossabaw and st. Catharine's, and thence
back TO Savannah waters, making a cruise
of a week, to wind up with O return inter
state regatta at Thunderbolt. At least the
above is the plan outlined by some of the
yachtsmen here who have been taking q
decided interest in the cruise. They will
expect no less than a feet of four or five
yachts of the Carolina club at the Beaufort
meet. IL the Carolina club does not accept
the conditions the yacht owners of Savan-
| southland soon after the Fourth of July re-
gatta of the Savannah yacht club
The board of stewards held a meeting
yesterday afternoon to arrange for tho
| regatta The meeting was we'll attended,
and a growing interest in yachting was
| plainly evidenced. lie was decided to sail
| over the Thunderbolt course A tug will
be provided for the judges and such men,
bers as care to go down and see the yachts
round the buoy. A string band will be at
the club house and dancing will be the order
of the afternoon and night.
The sailing committee will meet this week
and determine the time at which the yachts
will sail and fix the prizes. II is thought
and the prizes will be from $50 for the
winner in the first class down to SIS for the
winner in the catboat race
There will be some disappointment that
the Montgomery course was not decided
upon, but the club house affords advantages
Tor social enjoyments which tended to mill
tate against the Montgomery course.

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 it doesn't go far. The purchasing
power of a dollar now is something surpris-
ing, simply because there are more dollars
than trade. In word, we are now inclined
to give a very large dollars worth for 100
cents just to keep things moving. Within
the past few months we have added to our
stock in various ways, new ideas, new con-
ceits, new tricks 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 lUiU sell UerV
close to move some of it. This is good
time to renew household articles Solid
Silver table ware, superb plated ware,
ornamental goods For personal use or
adornment we offer line par excellence of
Ladies' fine Cold Silver and Diamond
Jewelry, Ladies' Watches, Chains and
Charms, Gents Watches and Jewelry, etc
All of these articles can be bought cheaper
now than whom trade gets brisker. Some
body will get married next fall-buy the
presents you intend to give nolO. They
will keep, and you will save money.

THE JURY LISTS.
What the City Court Grand Jury Says
About Them

What the City Court Grand Jury Says
About Them. ~.
The grand jury Of the city court, in its
report to the court yesterday, criticised the
work of the jury commissioners. There
is some want Of care on their part, the
jurors think. The following extract from
the report of the grand jurors shows how
they felt in the matter:
The grand jurors of this county have TO
serve at four terms of the city court and
three terms of the superior court. There
are 206 names on the list Of grand jurors,
aud of these about 25 per cent. arc exempt,
leaving $50 men liable for service at the
seven terms; consequently it is impossible
to have the work of the courts done except
by compelling some Of the grand jurors TO
servo twice. and they are frequently re-
Quired to serve at the same session in
both courts. There are a great many in
telligent citizens in our city who are never
called on TO do jury duty, and whose names
are not on the lists at all, but yet enjoy all
the protection accorded TO those who are
constantly called upon TO do the work This
is unjust, and a careful revision of the jury
lists is recommended, and all those citizens
who enjoy the city's protection, and are in
good standing, should be made TO serve
Oae hundred and tlfty-hve to 175 grand
jurors in a population Of SO, 900 is totally in
adequate for the work. There is some want
of care on the part of the jury commission
err, and the members Of this jury think that
they are entitled TO some re ief, and we urge
the commissioners TO take some prompt ac-
tion LOOK nv toward tightening the duty OF
tae pres1 nt grand jurors"
