Havana's Promenade.

The Georgia editors who visited Havana
few days ago were agree ably surprised at
many things they saw, and those OF the
party who were from Savannah were i'm
pressed with the idea that Bull street could
be made a finer drive and promenade than
the Prado, which is Havana's famous
promenade and drive The Prado is well
paved, is three miles in length, and is lined
with shade trees. 1t is there that the fash
ionable people are seen when out taking an
airing. There the pebeian victorias, with
their sorry looking horses, mingle with the
elegant carriages drawn by splendid horses
and driven by the well-dressed coachmen.
Bull street can be made easily as attrac-
tive, If not more so, than the Prado 1t
lacks the length of course, but that can be
compensated for by increased adornment
The first Improvement to be made is that of
paving, and it is probable that if an effort
were made enough money could be spared
for that purpose. IL the street were paved
TO Castor, and If CASTOR and New Houston
| streets, between Whitaker and Drayton
streets were paved, and if there were good
pavement through the park and the park
extension Savannah would have drive
and promenade of which she would
have good reason to be proud. 1t should be
remembered that the improvement of Bull
street would not be for the benefit of those
who reside upon it, but for the pleasure and
accommodation Of the people of the entire
city. Everybody finds enjoyment in prom
enading in that street, aud everybody who
could afford to own or hire a vehicle would
drive upon it if it were paved. On pleasant
days the sight on that street, if it were
properly improved, would be one well
worth seeing.

In Virginia it is crime to fish with dyna-
mite-that is, to explode a dynamite car
fridge in the water, and taus kill fish A
citizen of that state started out to break tle
law few days ago. He is member of the
state senate, and it might have bsen ex-
pected that he would uphold, rather than
defy, the law. The cartridge was exploded
prematurely, and the senator was blown
into the branches of tree and was seriously
injured If he RECEIVERS sufficiently, he will
probably be arrested.

The haste with which the admission of the ter
ritories of Idaho and Wyoming is being pushed
forward in congress fully confirms what we
predicted, in the earlier days of the session, of
the partisan policy to be pursued by the party
which has now ma ority in both branches of
congress Neither of these territories has the
requisite population for statehood, or is fit in
other respects to be brought into equality in
legislation in one branch of the government
with states a century old and of a hundred
times their Importance otherwise. The whole
proceeding is simply another step In the un-
scrupulous legislation of which the usurpation
of Speaker Reed was the beginning, and the
multiplying the action of the people of Montana
about TO be achieved in the Senate is another

Gen. Boulauger is what has been express
sively termed back numoer. All of his
greatness is in the past tense. But to say that
he will never come TO the front again in
France is to place too much confidence in

political history of that country shows that
it is not safe to make predictions relating to
political events. If Boulauger should again
become the hero OF the hour, there would
be no cause for surprise.

his own instead of its interests. 1t is to be

And thro' Georgia thus he few,
And this was the lawyer school
Where he learn'd what no others knew
And his big post-prandial head
Suck'd in ev'ry word as true

About judges and juries too.

Should teach him a lesson or two,

Poverty Prompts a Young Man to Resort
to Theft.
Yesterday Sheriff McMullen returned
from lone with John D. Everly, who had
been arrested there for the theft of a horse
and buggy belonging to w. L. Montgom-
cry, of Florin. The prisoner is a young
man whose appearance is wholly in his
favor. He stated to RECORD UNION re-
porter that this was the first trouble he
ever was in, and his manner in Court.
when taken before Justice Henry, showed
that he was ignorant of the simplest forms
OF Court customs.
EVERY said he had been in the State
about three years; that he came here from
Indiana, where he was for five years in
one mans employ. He brought some
money with him. but not having had
steady employment, it had vanished some
time ego. couple of weeks ago, he said,
he was so depressed in spirits while
in the city, owing to his inability to
get work, that he went to the river
with the intention of drowning himself,
but changed his mind and resolved to once
more try the rural districts. He was
equally unsuccessful there, and in mo.
ment OF desperation-while hardly in q
condition of mind to realize what be was
doing-he got into buggy that he found
standing in front of a Florin church and
drove off toward lone. He made one at.
tempt to dispose of the horse and vehicle,
but not succeeding, he left them at a ranch
and struck out on foot, alarmed at what
he had done, and was arrested.
Although it is by no means certain that
EVERY could be convicted. if he were ably
defended, he says he has no idea of con-
testing the charge, and so stated in Court
before Assistant District Attorney A. j.
Bruner and Sheriff McMullen. He saws
he took the horse and buggy under the
circumstances related, and that he will
plead guilty to grand larceny and save the
county the expense of prosecuting him.
He said he would not plead drunkenness,
as he did not use liquor-he simply COM
mltted the act to avoid starvation or sui
eide.
This is substantially the young mans
statement, and both Sheriff McMullen and
Mr. BrUner think he tells the truth, as they
have no evidence to the contrary An ex-
animation is necessary before committing
magistrate, and the case will come before
Justice Henry at O'Clock this afternoon.

MORE CHINESE QUAILs.
The Game Commissioners Secure A

The Game Commissioners Secure An
other Lot for Distribution.
The recent distribution by the Fish and
Game Commissioners of several hundred
Chinese quails among different localities in
the Sacramento and San Joaquin valleys
has attracted the attention of sportsmen
generally all over the State, and much in
terest has been manifested in the expert
ment of propagatipg them in this country
1t seems that the Commission does not i'm
port the birds direct from China, which
would be an expensive undertaking, but
procures them through Chinese agents in
San Francisco, who stand all losses in
CURED in bringing the birds from China,
the Commission paying only for the num-
Der of live birds received. President Rou-
tier of the Commission is now at the Bay,
where he has procured another large lot
for distribution. Referring to his visit,
the Chronicle OF yesterday says:
81. Reuter-, State Fish and Game Com.
missioner, arrived here from Sacramento
yesterday. He is here to purchase abou,
], 900 Chinese quail and express them tC
various parts OF the State for propagation
He has also distributed about 600, most OIL
which have gone to the great ranches like
| those of n. D. Rideout, near Marysville
Higgins, in the Sacramento valley, anC
the grounds of the Folsom Prison.
The Commissioner has found these
birds so plentiful in Chinatown that he ha:
only had to pay 50 dozen for them
whereas if the State undertook to impor
them from China they would cost 81 each
| The Chinese have large numbers of then
in cages, and being usually in upper rooms
and verandas they have been scarcely no
ticed. They are very game, and the Chi
nese have been rearing and tanning tn,
cocks for fighting purposes.

A Stockton Player Laid Up-Next SUM-
days Opening Game.
Jack Wilson, the short-stop signed by
the Stockton Club, met with an accident
the other day which will put stop to his
playing for few weeks. He was practic-
ing sliding on the Stockton diamond,
when he wrenched one of his feet in such
manner that the ankle was badly
sprained.
The Sacramento managers have provided
two costly benches for the use of the play
ers at the park. They are of hard wood
and covered by sort of awning to keep off
the sun.
T. T. Wiseman and c. S. Marshall have
obtained the REGARD privileges for the
season.
The fence surrounding the Park has been
made the width of board higher in order
to prevent persons from driving up along
side with buggies and taking in the game
at distance
The new hat to be given to the player
making the most number of runs is offered
by Charles Fredericks.
The walls of the private boxes at the
Park are being neatly papered and will
present an inviting appearance, no doubt. {.
A band will be in attendance at the Park
next Sunday to discourse music while the
players are practicing.
Two street cars, one containing the band
and the other the members of the Sacra.
mento club, will leave fer the Park at
o'clock on Sunday.
