Jacobs Theatre.

The popular Jacobs Theatre pre-
sents for this week IA Clean Sweep
a musical comedy in three acts, re
plete with fun and music. The per.
formers are all first-class and the sing
ing is excellent. A quartette com.
posed of four of the actors gave some
of the finest selections ever heard on
any stage. The situations through.
out the play are very funny and
laughable and must be seen to be APP
preciated,
There will be no performance at
this theatre on Wednesday evening,
as the house will be occupied by the
great mass meeting to be held to ratify
the nomination of Leon Albeit and
the other Democratic candidates.
Speeches will be delivered by Gov
ernor Robert S. Green, John r. Nc
Pherson, C. HI. Winfield and Edward
f. Mcdonald. During the evening
the quartette of the "Clean Sweep
Company will furnish some of THEN
good music. There will also be music
by others who have volunteered Their
services for this occasion.

SHOT WHILE sKYLARKING.
Swords jackson Shoots John Alsto
in the Stomach.

Swords Jackson Shoots John Aston
in the Stomach.
John Aston, a colored boy about II
years old, was shot last night by SWORDS
Jackson at the store of Peter Patterson, at
Tenth street and the White Bluff road.
One of the witnesses to the shooting, a
colored man, Immediately took Jackson
into custody, brought him to the city and
turned him over to the police.
The wounded boy was removed TO his
home on Huntingdon street and physician
was summoned, but it is believed the wound
is mortal, as the ball is said to have pene-
trated the stomach.
The circumstances of the shooting, as far
as could be learned, are as follows: Jack
son, an old colored man 60 or 65 years of
age, and said not to be very well poised
mentally, visited the store to purchase
cartridges for an old-fashioned, long
barrel pistol, which he loaded
after buying the cartridges, and
the boys got to ''skylarkingn
with him, when he drew the pistol from
his pocket and discharged it, wounding
young Aston.
The colored man, who took Jackson into
custody, said that the shot was not accl-
dental but Jackson said it was an accident,
and that in removing the pistol from his
pocket to withdraw the cartridge it was
discharged. He seemed to regret the shoot
inc.

TYBER TO BE CITYFIED.
a Water Works, Ice, Gas and Electric
Light Company Organized.

a Water Works, Ice, Gas and Electric
Light Company Organized
Tybee bids fair to have a water works
system, an ice factory and either an electric
light plant or gas works. A company has
been formed, to be known as the Tybee Ar
tesian Water, Ice and Lighting Company
and its attorney, J. R. Saussy, Esq, fled
with the clerk Of the superior court yester-
day petition for Incorporation.
The incorporators are John q. Butler,
James II. Furber, William Kehoe, Robert
P. Lowell and Alex C. Ulmer. The com
pany has 81, 900 paid up capital, but it fixes
its capitalization at 5000, and asks power
to increase it to $4,000, or, if it should
elect to decrease it when once raised, to be
empowered TO place it back to not less than
the present capital.
The incorporators say their object is to
sink artesian wells ON "the island of great
Tybee, to lay pipes and construct reservoirs
to conduct water to such places as the cor
poration may determine, and 10 supply water
to stockholders and Others Also, if the
corporation should so determine, to con-
struct ice works and manufacture ice, con-
struct gas or electric light works, and lay
gas pipes or stretch electric light wires.
Mr.. Saussy says that he understands it
to be the intention of the company, in an
ticipation Of the charter which it has ap-
piled for, to go to work at once putting
down artesian wells to supply the island
with pure water.
