PYTHIANs TO THE REscus.

The Brotherhood of Georgia to Aid the
Johnstown Sufferers.
The grand lodge of Knights of Pythias of
Georgia has issued an appeal for aid in be-
half of the Johnstown\ sufferers The ap-
peal is in response to that of the grand
lodge of Pennsylvania There is no need,
the supreme chancellor of the order says,
of reciting the appalling calamity
which has befsllen our brethren at
Johnstown, Pa, and vicinity. 1t is impos-
sible to tell how many have been swept into
eternity by this sudden blow. The living
are wanderers, homeless, helpless, destitute
in the places where comfort, happiness and
prosperity prevailed. Never before were
we called upon to meet such sudden, aw-
full and widespread emergency. Never
before have we had such an opportunity
for practical applicationyof friendship,
Charity, and benevolence. Large sums of
money will be needed, and that immedi-
ately. Grand Chancellor Doscher of Au-
gusta has sent out a circular appeal to the
lodges Of the state asking that contribu,
tions be sent to James Naylor of this city.

THE BUILDING BOOM.
Activity in the Supply Trade of 5avan-
nah at This Time.

Activity in the Supply Trade of Savan-
nah at This Time
The activity of business in the supply
trade is good evidence that the amount of
building now being done in Savannah is
very great. A MORNING News representa-
tive called at Mr.. Andrew Hanley's yester-
day and found the corps of clerks in that
establishment quite busily engaged filling
orders and waiting upon customers.
Mr.. Hanley has recently bought out Nc
Donough s. Co.'s stock of doors, sash aud
blinds and now he is more than ever enabled
to fill orders promptly for goods in his line
since the fire.
Mr.. Hanley's place is at the corner of Bay
and Whitaker streets, where he carries a
complete stock of all goods needed by
painters in any of the branches of that
trade. He also carries full line of the best
goods in builders hardware-white pine
doors, sash and blinds, paints, oils, glass,
cement, lime, hair, sewer pipe, chimney
hues, etc.
He also carries everything in mill, steam
boat and railroad supplies, and orders for
goods in these lines will be filled promptly
and satisfactorily.
So greatly has the business Of this ex-
cellent house increased Of late that they
have found it difficult to secure storage
room. Mr.. Hanley has, besides his ware
house on the corner of Bay and Jefferson
streets, four other warehouses in the city.
The house is enabled by its large trade tc
compete in prices with any firm in this sec
ton, if not in the country at large. A de-
termination to lead makes it to the interest
of all who want goods in his line to give
MIR. Hanley call before buying. +

THE GROWING CROPS.
Cotton, Corn and Rice In Good Condi-
ton Now.

Cotton, Corn and Rice in Good Condi-
ton Now.
Reports now being received from South
Georgia and Florida show that the recent
rains have covered a large area of territory
and have been of incalculable benefit to
cotton. The advices show that the tenn
perature has been much warmer, and at
the present writing the growing plant is in
splendid condition in Florida, that is, for
upland cotton.
AS to sea islands the Information is rather
meager as yet, although it is believed that
the condition of the plant has improved
very materially, as the requisites for its
proper maturity are almost identical with
those of uplands, except that the plant is
not quite so hardy.
The reports from corn are good and it is
expected that there will be an abundant
yield.
The reports from rice are very promising
and planters along the river and in Caro-
lima say that thus far the crop is looking
splendidly.
