A FRIEND OF SAVANNAH.
Senator Beck's Visit Here Two Years
Ago.

S646tOr G6Ck 3 tl5lL E0r6 Two ears
Ago.
The death Of Senator James B. Beck on
Saturday recalls his last visit to Savannah.
Senator Beck, accompanied by his son, Hon.
George I. Beck Of the Wyoming legisa-
tire, came to Savannah Dec. "a, 1888, on
the advice of his physician, aud spent two
weeks at the Pulaski house. Senator Back
was then brain weary from long and
arduous public services, and absolute quiet
was enjoined by his physician.
Senator Beck had been lifelong friend of
the south and one of its ablest defenders In
both branches of the national congress and
upon the stump, and he had been particu-
larlv friendly to Savannah, favoring liberal
appropriations for the Improvement of its
harbor. Naturally enough, Wien the peo-
pie learned that ne was In the city courtesies
and hospitalities were promptly extended

wait upon him and extend the Inequalities

must not at present carry with them the
activity which am counseled by my physi-
clan to avoid. did not even read the mi
nority report on the tariff bill, which
signed" added the senator.
While in Savannah Mr.. Beck took drives
about the city and mingled freely with the
guests at the hotel, but he carefully avoided
conversation of political character,
adroitly leading away from the subject
when it was preached. During his stay he
was the guest for a couple of days of Hon.
Thomas M. Norwood at the country place
of the latter in Liberty county, and
enjoyed a deer hunt while out of
the city with the author of
.'PIutocracy." MIR. Beck and his son, after
two weeks in Savannah, visited Thomas
vile, and after few days pleasantly spent
there they returned north. While the
Senator was much improved by his south
| ern tour, he was not cured. The tired brain
had been overtaxed and relaxation came too
| late or else il was too soon abandoned.

Mr. Baker said yesterday that the season
has been very good one-cOnsiderably
better than he anticipated when it opened.
More tourists came here than ever before
Dir. Baker said that he will have a much
better service next season. He came here
at a time when 1t was almost impossible to
procure competent help, or such as he
wished. and, in consequence, there has been
some dissatisfaction. He said that he will
have entirely new help. The clerks en-
ployed this season will probably be con-
nected with other hotels next year. They
suited and made the house popular, but Mr..
Baker does not apprehend any trouble about
getting other men. He will remain here a
good deal of the time. When he is away he
will visit the watering places in the north
and accustom himself to all the latest
methods, and will see in what name. the
service is conducted.
Mr.. Baker said that he regretted being

him, and as he walked in Mr.. Clifton,
beaming with joyous smiles, saidi calder
man Falligant, am glad to see youi Come
with me; want to introduce you to the
