The Colonel's Predicament.

The Kansas City Times gossiper thus relates
an interesting situation: most amusing thing
happened in the swimming pool at Excelsior
Springs on the night Of the Third regiment ball
which put to fight a score of ladies and caused
a gallant colonel much discontinue After the
dance Gov. Francis, Col Breathitt. railroad
commissioner; Col. Bull, military inspector of
the state; Adjt Gen. Wickham; Col A. @
Dawes, general passenger agent of the Chicago
Burlington and Quincy; Mr.. Mills of St. Louis
and several other gentlemen went in bathing
with score of ladies'. All went gayly as a mar
rlage bell, and all being good swimmers a Jolly
time was being had. But amid the noise Of
Splashing of water and screams of merriment
as some luckless man was pushed off the plat
form into the water, came faint cry for helm
from Col. Dawes
What's up, old MANI" cried the governor.
Come here minute, want you"
Swim up here then" cried half dozen
who were loath to leave the fun that was going
on.
Taking pity on the colonel. who is very de-
mure fellow and well liked, half dozen ladies
rem up to him and proffered their services
which the colonel, amidst bushes that did him
credit, gently but firmly declined, and he again
called for the governor. The governor not
coming and the agonizng look on the colOnel's
face being more than one of the ladies could
bear, she insisted that the colonel tell her what
was the matter, but by this time Mr.. Mills had
arrived on the scene.
What is 1t, old man; what can do for youg''
he inquired
Drawing Mr.. Mills head to him, whis
pered word was sufficient to explain the sltua-
ton.
Can we help him?" is he hurt sShall

questions asked by the anxious ladies
who were alarmed at the aspect of col
Dawes sitting motionless in the water up to his
neck.
No, ladies. there is no need for your calling

thread, but as it is, | think you had all better
quietly retire TO the further end OF the hall
while the colonel gets out of the water. nail

But by this time there was a stampede of the
ladies for the dressing room, whence for
five minutes one long scream OF laughter
came.
BY the aid Of fish-pole the missing trunks
were found, and after threatening 20 issue
challenge in due form. as soon as he reached
the hotel Col Dawes retired 70 bis dressing
room.

congressman who have been defeated for
denomination, particularly through the
opposition of the farmers alliance, ere
taking a mournful view of things. They
think that the country is going to smash
and predict all kinds of dire results because
of their defeat. One of the southern con-
gressmen who failed to get denomination
went so far as to say that the success Of the
alliance means the division of the solid south.
and that the passage of the force bill would
be about the only thing that would bind the
white men Of the south together. This is
very extreme view of the situation, but it
is natural that a soon-to-be ex-congressman
should see nothing encouraging in the
political outlook.

Although there is one more month of
the season, the cotton receipts at the differ
ent ports have reached 5,771,47S bales,
being PCS, 0S5 bales more than last year, and
299,0 ahead of the previous year. The
shipments have been heavier on the gulf
coast than on the Atlantic coast, which
may be accounted for because of u decline
in receipts at the Atlantic ports. Savan-
nah, however, is an exception, the receipts
and shipments having been heavier than in
any previous year.

THE TRADE REVIEW.

For years, on the opening of each sue
ceeding season, there has been presented
evidence of large increase in Savannah's
business. Heretofore this increase has been
due to the natural growth of Savannah's
tributary territory, better understanding
of her commercial advantages, and the
gradual enlargement of her two great rail
road systems. These things will continue to
contribute to her growth ana prosperity,
and, in addition to them, there are others,
which have recently come into existence,
that will mako the business year of 1s9O-91
more notable than any preceding one in her
history.
Since the last trade review of the MORN
ING NEWS there have been built three new
and important railroads TO Savannah. or to
connect with her railroad systems They
are the Alabama Midland, the Savannah
and Western, and the Savannah, Americas
and Montgomery. These railroads have
already brought hundreds of buyers to
Savannah and increased her trade greatly.
But the number of buyers and the amount
Oh trade which these new railroads will
contribute to her markets when the crops
now in the fields tributary to them are
harvested VIII be many times larger. The
people will have money then and they will
seek Savannah to supply their wants.
4 6 -
justifies the opinion that the business season
will open early and with great activity
The people are already thinking, probably,
of what they will buy with the fruits of
their labor. They are scanning the columns
of the MORNING NEWS TO see who are the
live and progressive business men of Savan-
nah and what they are Offering for sale.
There is large and lucrative trade to be
secured from the territory which the new
railroads have made tributary to Savan-
nah, as well as from the territory which has
heretofore been tributary to her. If our
merchants are wise they will not neglect the
only proper method of getting this trade
That method is liberal advertising.
The MORNING NEWS proposes Co make a
special effort to reach every buyer in the
new field that has been opened by Savan-
nah's enterprise. The agents Of the MORN
ING News are travelling through the coun-
try, and the people are taking the paper
just as rapidly as the mail facilities which
are being established permit them to.
It is proposed to send copy of the trade
review to each subscriber to the WEEKLY
NEWS, as well as to each subscriber to the
daily, thus giving advertisers the benefit of
both editions at little more than the usual
price of one.
An advertisement in a newspaper is an in
vitation to buyers to call. 1t virtually says,
"When you are in town please call on us.
We have all these things to show you"
The annual review will contain the usual
resume of the business of the city for the
last year 1t will be sent to thousands of
people who are interested in Savannah's
welfare and prosperity.
The Trade Review edition will be issued

tanned upon application to the business
office.

The Force Bill Losing Ground.

Our special dispatches from Washington
yesterday stated that opposition to the
force bill in the Senate is steadily growing
stronger, and that it is nottmprobable that
several Of the leading republican senator's
will soon openly express their opposition to
it.
This change of sentiment that is taking
place among republican senators is due to
the opposition to the bill Of the northern
business men, who have promptly responded
to the appeals Of the southern business men
to use their influence to defeat it.
The MORNING NEWS suggested that the
business men of the south urge the business
men of the north to make their influenc e
felt against the BILL and the suggestion was
acted upon promptly throughout the south.
1t is a source of satisfaction that it was.
because it is now evident that the sugges-
ton was a wise one. The south could have
adopted no other course that would have
been productive of such good results
The unwise talk of a boycott threatened
for few days to interfere with the good
work which was being done, but the south
ern people repudiated the boycott idea SO
promptly and emphatically that the repub-
ican leaders and organs were deprived of
the chance of making much capital out
of it.
Senator Teller's plain talk in the Senate
Monday against gag rule was pretty sat
isfactory indication that no serious effort
will be made to pass the force bill at this ses-
sion, and before the next session public senti-
rnent in the north will be so strong against
1t that the republican leaders will be will
ing to let it remain among the bills that
are never called up for consideration

Another Farmers Bank Plan.

Senator Calls farmers bank scheme is
rather novel one. 1t is the sub-treasury
plan In another form, only on a more ex-
tensive scale, but it is not called a sub
treasury plan. Senator Calls plan is in the
nature OF an amendment to the national
banking law 80 as to provide relief for
farmers" The sub-treasury plan would be
limited to one warehouse for each county.
but on the basis of the Call plan there could
be quite number of national banks in a
county. All that it is necessary to do to es-
tablash bank by his plan is to warehouse
100000 worth of non-perishable farm pro-
ducts, subscribe for $4,000 capital stock.
and get national bank charter The farm
product bank would be empowered to dis
count notes secured by warehouse certif-
Gates of gram, corn, oats, barley, and so on,
to the extent of so per cent. of the market
value Of such articles.
The benevolent features of the plan are
more clearly brought out in the provision
requiring the controller, on satisfactory
proof furnished him by any bank organized
under the provisions of the act that ware
house certificates for non-perishable farm
sited as security for the promissory
notes of the persons who have produced
the same or who own the farm products
to deliver to the bank treasury notes to the
amount of 81 for every dollar in gold or
silver held on deposit in the treasury for
such bank, which treasury notes are to be
used only TO discount notes secured by
warehouse certificates of the deposit of
non-perishable farm products
Banks organized under the provisions of
this act may, at any time, on depositlng
mortgages on real estate which have been
approved by the controller of the currency.
or bonds or interest paying securities of the
United States or any of the states, or cities
or counties approved by the Secretary of
the Treasury or controller of the currency.
receive treasury notes to the extent of 80
for one dollar of the gold and silver belong
ing to such bank in the treasury of the
United States.
Senator Call does not claim credit for the
bill. There is good reason to believe that
like the sub-treasury plan, it is an alliance
measure, and was introduced at the request
OF those alliancemen who think the sub
treasury plan would require the combina-
ton of too much capital in the shape of
farm products. They, therefore, propose
this amendment to the banking bill. 1t is
hardly probable that it will prove to be as
acceptable as the sub-treasury plan.

There is food for little study of pract-
cal politics in the recent protracted con-
tests in congressional conventions in several
states In Ohio four conventions resultad
in deadlock and adjourned without max
ing nominations. The trouble seems to
have been in the manner of choosing dele
gates, the candidates being permitted to
select their own men to represent the>s.
Thus the delegates represented an individ-
ual instead of the people.

An interesting legal point has been raised
in the kemmler case. His sentence pro.
vides that he shall be executed during tho
week beginning March f. The point raised
Is that the week beginning March 4 ends
with Sunday. Tho warden has arbitrary
power TO defer the execution until SUNDAY.
Aug. 10. On Sunday, it Is held. the
general law would intervene to prevent the
killing on that day, upon the ground that
any execution of legal processes upon Sun
day is not legal Directly at this point the
case is touched by that general principle of
law that if the sentence under which
Kemmler is expected to be killed is void in
part, it must be wholly void. This legal
point is so fine that it is doubtful if anv
court will be able to see it. The prospect is
that Kemmler will be killed by electricity
some day this week.

TERRIBLE ATTACKS.

ALAMosA, Col, Jan. 80
Ny wife was troubled with nervousness
about one year before she took Pastor Koe-
nig's Nerve Tonic, and at that time had very
severe attacks of spasms, commissions, and
pains in different parts of the body When
IN this state her lower jaws would act vio-
lently and set sometimes. bite her tongue,
breathe heavily, then short then seemed to
stop entirely, get a wild look in her eyes and
rolling around, then stop sometimes, it would
take men to hold her in bed, otherwise her
body would cramp and be so for 2 hours. She
took but two bottles of the Nerve Tonic
which cured her entirely of all these torments
which myself and wife gladly testify, 1t truly
had tho desired effect.
