feat.

Capt, Dixon's plurality is greater than
his most jealous friends had hoped

large plurality. While MS election was all

did not expect such Waterloo for Goette.
Capt. Dixon's vote lacks only twenty seven

"Ein Gefecht" is already pronounce d BY
critics superio" to the Meissonier in the
Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York,
which has been acknowledged the greatest
military painting in this country. The
criticism is ono Of which the Polish artist
may be proud. Everybody was expecting

pointed.
The studies of the cows and OK, which
Gr Brandt also secured at Munich, were
greatly admired, and the now famous
Relics of the Brave the chef d'oeuvre OF
the gal cry did not suffer in the comparison
with "Ein-Gefecbt.n The two pictures are
not TO be compared. They are

Why Representative Posteu Didn't
Introduce DR.. Oemler's Oyster EilL
Collector of Customs J. E, Dart told in
Brunswick day or two ago how it came
that DR.. Oemlers oyster bill has not yet
been introduced in the legislature. Capt
Gordon, he said, gave the bill to Repre-
sentative Postell, of Glynn, to introduce
for him. Col Postell failed to introduce
the bill, and Capt. Gordon took him to
task for not doing so. Col. Postell de
Tended himself by saying: When Jake
Dart was a representative from Glynn
county, be introduced a hog bill for ST
SimOn's Island, and got a good 'cussing'
out from the people on that island. " Een
Col. Ira Z. Smith was . rep, sentative

were some amusing incidents conuectei
w.th the count. An oyster stew was or
dered during the night, and Sam REYNOLDS

that there was but one oyster in the stew,

The friends Of Mr.. O'Connor were any,

I'd some Of them want Mr.

persons voting in the names of legal voters,

found themselves confronted with chal

II is conceded that such open work was
never known before at any election in
Chatham county, and it vas not confined to
any cne side. The col0red vote was in the
market, AMI it was paid for, both openly
and in secret While there were but about 900
colored voters registered the colored vote
exceeded that number and yet many woo
had registered and paid taeir taxes are said
to have been turned away without being
allowed to vote.

Alderman Herman Myers, receiver of the
Savannah and Tybee railroad reports that
the road bed and general physical condition
of the railroad is excellent, and he proposes
t. keep it so. A ques ion which will soon
have to be decided will be the completion of
The track from Bilbo canal to Reyrold

of land at toe foot Of President street and
the road bed is built to that point
All that is necessary TO get into its own

Savannah, Florida and Western railway
will not want the Tybee company TO use
its depot yards and It's tracks another sea-
