Mr.. II. D. Hughes, who has been here
several weeks experimenting the erection
of the garbage crematory furnace, left for
New ork by Saturdays steamer. Alder
man Halnes, chairman OF the health and
cemetery committee, said last night that he
has confidence that the crematory will be a
success. 1t appears that this is the first one
that the United Gas and Fuel Company has
put up in the south, and there is a differ
ence In the character of the garbage.
MIR. Hughes decided to put in a blower.
He said to a MORNING NEWS reporter one
day last week, without the blower suffi-
Gent draft could not be obtained to make
the crematory heat sufficiently for success
full work, and the blower, Mr.. Hughes stated,
would arrive in a day or two With Mr.,
Hughes and his chief engineer away it is
not expected that the work will progress
further until Mr.. Hughes arrival, which
DR.. Harris sets down for the latter part of
the week
The test of the crematory is not likely to

A Dangerous Place.

1t is said that the approaches to the bridge
over Musgrove creek, on the Augusta road,
near the Central railroad. are badly in need
of guards as it is a dangerous place. Sew
eral narrow escapes have been reported,
one lady having been thrown from her car
riage by the horse taking fright from a
passing train, the Central track being on
the hill on the northwest.
The bridge is narrower than the road, and
deep ditch runs parallel with the road,
emptying into the creek at the bridge.
There is a sharp declivity near the bridge
which makes it more imperative that guards
should be extended on the southwest side of
the road. The bridge needs protection
guards, however, at each end and on both
sides.
Mayor Schwarz said last night that the
matter had been brought to his attention
and also to the attention of Alderman
Harmon, chairman of the street and lane
committee and they will look after it at
once. He also stated that an effort will be
made to have the Central put u flagman in
the locality, and 1t is believed that with the
guards extended from the present terminus
to the bridge, and the location of flag
man there, there will be little or no COM
plant In the future.

Student Life in Germany.
From The Chatltauo1lnn.


We find in the twenty schools of Ger
many some $4,000 students, of whom over
LOO are foreigners, the Russians leading.
closely pressed by the Swiss, Austrians and
Americans, in numbers that do not yary
lar from 200 for each nation. AS might be
supposed, the largest towns contain the
largest Institutions. The modern university
IKE the MedlBval, appears to demand the
multiplicity of industrial life The Uni
verslty OF Berlin numbers over 5000 stu
dents, those of Leipzig. and Munich more
than 5000 each. To resist this tendency
toward the diStinctively urban founda-
tons, favored to the utmost by states which
they peculiarly represent, the institutions
of the smaller central powers, and those
less fostered by the pride of dynasty, exert
themselves to excel in some one speciality in
which effort they are often aided by tradi-
tion and habit.
Thus, in 1887, in spite of the greatly su-
perior aggregate of the three universities
noted above, certain of the provincial facul-
ties have successfully maintained, not
merely a relative, but even an absolute pre-
eminence. The order of attendance in the
ology (both Protestant and Catholic facul-
ties being reckoned together, when in the
same institution was: Berlin, 794; Leipzig,

NO MORE RAIN NEEDED.
FARMERS HAVE had MORE THAN
ENOUGH NOW.

Melons and Tomatoes Beginning to
Rot and the Melons Dropping From

look.
Heavy rains fell yesterday forenoon. to
the regret of the truck farmers who are
complaining as much now about wet
weather as they did Of the drought in May
and the greater part Of June.
One truck gardener said yesterday that
the continuous rains Of the last week are
rotting the melons, and especially the
young melons, many Of which have been
dropping Off the vines. Tomatoes are also
feeling the wet weather, and there is a
tendency of the fruit to rot rather than
ripen. The bulk Of the Savannah tomato
crop has gone forward, but did not last
week bring as good prices as shippers ex-
pected. 1t brought as much, however, as
they had a right to expect as the fruit was
green and was Of uncertain value. Good to
prime tomatoes brought from 81 so to 81
per crate. Florida tomatoes are still going
forward, but the quality is inferior, rang
ing from so cents TO 81 25.
tomatoes will bring fair prices this week,
and there remains about one-fourth of the
crop TO be shipped, principally in the hands
of and grown by Maj. G.. M. and Louis M.
Ryals, the Exleys John Schley, Mr.. Foun-
tain and few others.
Cucumbers are no longer profitable to
ship from here to the north as the Charles
ton and Norfolk cucumbers are going in
lively, and Savannah cucumbers have gone
down TO 40 cents and 60 cents per crate.
The rains have refreshed the vines, and il
the wet weather does not continue there
will be more than abundance for the local
and interior demand.
This is the greatest fruit year ever known
in Georgia and the shipment of peaches has
been heavy. Three car loads were shipped
by steamer Saturday. The quality is better
than that Of the peaches received the week
before, and the prices in northern markets
have been more satisfactory, ranging from
so cents TO 81 IS per peck as to
quality. ysAThe peach season, which
opened two weeks ago, will continue until
October. In addition to the heavy ship
ments north and west, it is estimated that
not less than 400 fruit distilleries will be
operated in the peach-growing sections Of
the state.
Prime Georgia melons are bringing good
prices in northern and western markets,
readily commanding $25 to $50 per 100,
and have been going by rail and steamer
very lively during the past week.

rainy season began, confirms the views he
expressed during the latter part of May
when the mortality from intestinal diseases
among children was so great. He says that
since the large volumes of storm-water

titles and flushed the sewers, there has been
a noticeable falling off in cases of sick
