SUNDAY FOR THE PEOPLE.

The Kind Of Weather "Old Probs" is
Giving Us-The Day at the Resorts.
Yesterday was more like May or June
day than one in the midwinter month of
January. 1t was thought that after so
much fine weather, Sunday would be an
exception, but it was as pleasant as any of
its immediate predecessors. Apparently
everybody, except the most devout, thought
it was good time to enjoy the lovely sky
and bask in the warm sunshine. The streets
were full of people all the day long, and in
the afternoon the Park looked as it does on
gala days.
The suburban resorts were well patronized
The morning and afternoon trains to Tybee
were well filled, and the inward train at
dark was crowded. The air on the seashore
was as balmy as that of spring, without the
usual accompaniment of sandhies and mos
quitoes. The railroad to Tybee is in first
rate order and the trains travel as though
they had special connections to make at both
ends. 1t would not be a bad idea, consider
ing that the route is not fast mail line, for
the 1ybee trains to stop regularly on the
river side of the island, and at the same
time give passengers little more time to
get ON and off.
The Isle of Hope, Montgomery and Thun-
derbolt trains all did good business during
tire day.

Pompey O'Nel Wounds the Despoiler
of His Domestic Happiness.


of His Domestic Happiness.
Pompey O'Neil, IA negro, dangerously cut
another negro named George Dodge, at
ONel' home, No 100 Montgomery street,
near Castor, yesterday afternoon. Shortly
after the act was committed O'Neil was ar
rested by Constable Nathans. He was car
ried before Justice r. J. Sheftall, at his
residence, and was committed 10 jail upon
the charge of assault with intent TO murder.
The affair created great excitement in
the neghborhood ana 1t was late into the
night before it had subsidized
The green-eyed monster, inhame1 by
liberal hbations of Sunday whisky, is at
the bottom OF the scrape. About o'clock
in the afternoon O'Neil and his wife were
seated in their house entertaining Dodge
wnen another caller by the name of James
Brown entered. Brown was considerably
under the influence of liquor and his pres
eucs was objected TO by O'Neils wife
O'Neil agreed 10 carry Brown out and see
him safely home and left the house, leaving
his wife and Dodge the sole occupants.
When he returned the appearance of
affairs evidently did not suit him. In fact
he hal been peeplng through the blind
some little time before he entered. A slum-
bering lion was aroused in his bosom when
he threw the door open, locked il on the
llioiuc, NUttAhbA VII II VIC ibOiii NADlV LIS
wife and Dodge were on into the kitchen,
returning with n stout hickory stick in his
hand. Dodge evidently caught a glimpse
of the lion, for he Immediately began ar
rangements looking toward
very hasty departure He couldn't
depart very well for the front
door was locked, and the man with the
hickory stick INSTRUCTED clear passage
through the back way. He made DASH
however, to got by the stick, but the stick
met him half way. O'Neil rained blows
upon his head, but that not being u very
good place to hit person of D0dge's kind
O'Neil ran his hand into his pocket after his
knife. Getting it out and opening it he
gave Dodge time to reach the back fence.
The injured husband, however, got one
slash at the despoiler Of his happiness before
he had scaled the fence O'Neil did not
continue the pursuit. 1t was found that
Dodge has a very ugly cash extending from
the top of his right shoulder through the
armpit and into the right breast. He was
carried to his room near by, physician
called and his wound dressed 1t is quite a
dangerous cut, but if we'll taken care Of is
not likely to prove fatal.
Dodge is n lahorer at the Ocean steamship
wharf and O'Neil works at odd jobs. During
the hot days of last summer, when he
climbed the scaffolding about the new Jail
with layers of brick upon his head or hod
OF mortar upon his shoulder, it is probable
that he never dreamed that he was toiling
to build walls that would some day shut out
the light of freedom from his vision.

be stored in boxes in such way that
in the end of the room farthest from the
doc: they will be piled high and grading
down towards the entrance. 1t is expected
that each room win hold $1,000, coo. if piled
close to the top of the arches. This will
make the total accommodations of the
vaults equal to $12S, 5000, 600. The doors of
these rooms are fitted with locks SO contrived
that the Waterman cannot take the key out
until the door has been securely
locked, in this way preventing the door
being left ajar A three foot passage runs
around the vault, outside the rooms, with
no connection with them except in the
front, through a heavy pair of double
doors. The construction of this vault was
begun last summer, and the cost of building
has been about s27 800 The engineer be
lieves this to be the best ever built for the
government, having especial advantage Of
strength, dryness, economy Of space and
money and security.

What Charleston Thinks.

Savannah and the travelling public are
alike to be congratulated upon the assur-
ance that hotel worthy of the Forest
City" is so soon to he built within its limits.
There is no reason why winter tourists
from the North should pass by the most at
tractive cities in the South and spend their
time in the piney woods, except that the
grand hotels recently erected in such out of
the way places are superior in some respects
to the od-fashioned hotels in the cities, or
are made more attractive, at any rate, to
the class whose custom is so much desired
Our Savannah friends have decided wisely,
therefore, and we hope that the returns
from their liberal investment Will meet
their expectations to the full. -Chdriestoh

THE NEW VAULT.
Description of the Place for the Gov
ernment'S Treasure.

ernment'S Treasure.
From the 81. Louis Republican.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 31.-The new
vault in the Treasury, in which it is pro-
posed to store away the silver dollars that
are received at the Treasury, is rather an
interestin place to visit, and it is so thor
oughly burglar-proof it is not likely that
crooks will ever try to break INTO the place
The big iron door which leads TO the vault
Is Of iron, six inches IN thickness, and
weighs 1900 pounds. 1t slides into the wall
on the right, clearing half Of the passage
way, ana requires the strength of five men
to move it without the aid OF the mcchan-
ical device which it is proposed to put in
place The lock is a circular brass
plate about a foot in diameter,
set an inch or so into the face of the door
The bolts are on the left hand, or east end of
the door. and fit into slots in massive iron
let into the wall on that side, the door going
nearly foot INTO the face of the wall They
are moved into place by turn of a large
handle in the centre Of the brass plate and
when once shot cannot be turned back with
out the use Of n small key that fits into
very ordinary looking key-hole on the upper
rim of the plate. This lock is said to be one
Of the best in use for strength and reliability.
Once inside the door the vault looks very
much like Jail The walls are hollow and
are now entirely dry. 1t is intended to run
steam pipes through from the main building.

rooms, arranged in two rows Of eight each.
separated 10y passage-way about 4 feet
wide, with door from each room opeuine
into it. The partitions are made OF iron lat
tice work, of strips about a quarter of an
inch thick. At the corners of each room is
an iron column caused by riveting together
four pieces Of iron SHAPED like "A letter /,
and about - feet long. These bear the en-
tire weight of the arches and directly sup
port series Of iron cross-beams, or GRID
erS, 10 inches thick. Not long ago a rumor
found its way into circulation that the
weight of the roof had bulged the lattice
work, thus indicating an early collapse of
this storehouse for the governments treas
ure; hut as a matter of fact. the lattice
does not quite reach the roof, and the bulg-
ing was the result Of the work Of rveting.
which took place after the strips were in
position. Mr. f. G.. Miller, who had SUPER
vision Of the construction, thinks that the
columns are capable Of bearing weight
eight times heavier than that which now
exists. The dimensions of the hall, outside
measurement, are 90. 10 feet by 27S. This
gives surface area of 5,S77. rs square feet.
According to the nearest calculations the
weight now to be supported is about $50
pounds TO the square foot, and thus there is
a total weight OF oSl, 667 pounds.

fund. The society has been at considerable
expense and has taken pains to arrange a
fine programme, and 1t deserves a liberal
patronage. There is a large number OF
