WORLDLY WISDOM.
As gxemplitled by the knowing On,

AS Exemplified by the Knowing Ones.
ut is astonishing how much wisdom is
stored away 10 the different departments of
ilte which is lost to the world" said an OBJ
serving gentleman few days ago.
"T have been watching t @ course of
events III this city for some years. have
stood aloof AID prophesed that some day
the people would awake to the fact thar
there was great future iu sore for US, and
that we possessed ali of the elements of a
great city. Now that this is happening,
aud our people are realizing at city and
suburban property promises bstter returns
Than any other kind Of investments, IL is
amusing, and yet provoking in the face
Of az .ual results, to lie Obliged to listen to
the conclusions of the wi eacres.n
"Oae man says: Its all a boom, gotten
up by a ring
"Another SAYS: 'Ohl l have ssen Just
such Things before
rs ill another says: We have no factories
ana there's not ing TO predicate it upon.'
Thus they administer cold comfort to
each other, wait for the ebb tide, which fails
to ebb, pass their days in croaking, and
finally are lost III the oblivion of uusuccess-
ful lives.
Having studied closely our future pros
pects, having investigated our surround
ngs, | have come delib .ratel to the con-
clu-iou that there is no southern seaport
city who's prospects point so certaiuly to a
fright future as do Those Of our beautiful

A force OF mon has been working in the

very heavy and difficult to get olt.
A force of men has been clearing out the
Hanley building basement, but the work
as been even more tedious than in the ar

THE CITY's FIRE APPARATUS.
The Recent Hose Purchase-Whett the
Fire Committee In Doing.


Fire Committee La Doing.
The FIRE committee of council has not yet
let its contract for the heaters, nor for a
hose cart, but it win probably do so during
this week.
An effort having been made TO sell the
city brand Of hose at 80 cents per foo.
the committee explains why it would not
answer the purpose. The hose purchased 10
the Maltes cross brand and weighs only
about fifty five pounds to the section, while
the S0-cent hose weighs about seVeuty-f1ve
pounds. The Maltese cross hose has been
tri. d here, the COMMITTEES says, for years,
and does not rot as readily as the cheaper
brand. The city does not carry duplicate
hose, and, therefore, it is often COM
PEELED TO reel up nose out
OF the mud and water and has no
facilities to wash and dry it in time TO have
il ready in case of an emergency. AS this
hose has an outer and inner circle OF vulcan
ized rubber protecting the woven texture
from the watet, mud and fire, aad
standing a pressure of 400 pounds it, has
been found to he the most economical in the
end.
A group Of gentlemen, discussing fire de-
partnent affairs yes 'erday, agreed that the
city has utsrown the facilities Of the pres
enI Hater works, and especially so in tue
growing rapidly, and it was sad
that some OF the older mains
cannot stand heavy pressure
aud especially some Of the smaller maihs,
il heavy pressure we're applied, would give
away. IT, is thought that the new water
works, which tne ci y must provide at no
distant day, will have 10 be 30 arranged as
TO give a hydraulic pressure that the
present water works system does not afford,
and which was one of the causes Of com
plant by the underwriters after the disas-
trous fire early in the month.
Complaint is made that the paid fire de-
partment is too small, and at one Of the
tires the past week there were not enough
paid firemen to put up ladder. The driver
of the engine, the engineer, the fireman,
the driver Of the bose cart and the
foreman, and the chief Of the department
responded-just six, and eleven mon were
required t1 put up the ladder,
4 here are two other additions 20 the ap-
paratus that the firemen want he aerial
ladder truck, Ly which it Is claimed ten
men can raise a ladder TO the hight Ut tho
highest building in six seconds, aud q

about 81, 500, but at is not expected that the
city will feel justified la expanding the
money this year for the chemical engine,
but the fre committee has not given up the
aerial truck yet, which the committee says,
with he present limited force of firemen,
is much needed -o AH"

| employees with whom Parker was intimately
acquainted credit the story that Parker

mhined locked in his room at Conductor

There were no letters except one or
two, old with age, from young lady at
Lau ems, h. c., TO whom he was at one
time engaged. and for whom be bought the

be fou I'd in the trucks, but it was not.
Mr.. o. c. Parker said that he is confident
that his brother had been fouly dealt with.
He had often heard him say that suicide d
horrors for him and that it was Ger ain that
he would never kill himself. Parker had
been discharged from the Savannah and
Western railroad as conductor, but ne lost
little time In securing place in Savannah
as brakeman, which paid him within SIS OF
W hat he got with the Savannah and Western
as conductor.
Conduc or Bsvill said that Parker had
not developed any marked regret a his dis
charge, and went about his work as brakeman
with his usual degree Of jolIity. Mr. Bevill
added that Parker did seem u little mean-
choly when he came In from the long run of
four or Ave days, a week ago, but he has no
doubt that II was due to the fatigue OF the
trip. He said that Parker always bad
money. and be carried it in a pocket-book
in bis inside coat pocket, besides carrying
considers bic pocket change.
Brakeman Rountree said that Parker had
only a few Jllars In his pock=t out at
Thunderbolt Wednesday, ternoon, but he
did not know what he had in the pocket
book. The pockstoook was not found on
Parker when he was picked up Sunday
morning by Watch nan Bernes Of the Tyler
press. II Is supposed TO have cot lined at
least $500.
Conductor Bevill believer that Parker got
into drunke crowd and was led down to
the river, drugged and thrown In the river.
He says that IL such is the case the watch
I'd ring were left o his person to mislead
persons, and be sides the watch had large
monogram OF Parker's and would be clew

O, G, Parker carried only the trunk back
to Wadley Coroner Dixon requir I'd a re-
ceiptfrom each one of the deceased mans
family before he would turn over the atcn
