Streets-The New sewers.
The sewer on Montgomery and Anderson
streets, from Duffy to Burroughs street, has
been completed, and the work of putting in
the catch basins is in progress. Two Of
these, at Burroughs and Anderson streets,
were completed yesterday.
On Monday a part of the street force
broke ground for the Habersham street
sewer, running southwark from Waldburg,
but the work is not progressing as favor
ably as on the Anderson street sewer, as a
great many stumps and roots are encount-
cred in excavating.
Huntingdon street is being shelled from
Whitaker TO West Broad, more particu-
larly to facilitate the movements of that
portion of the fire department at the No. 4
engine house when called out by fire alarms.
A fiat load Of shells was received yesterday.
A carload of granite curbing for Monterey
square was received yesterday, and two
more carloads are on the way.
Alderman Harmon, chairman of the
street and lane committee, is endeavoring
TO push forward all excavating work as
rapidly as possible, so that all sewer extern
sons may be completed before May l, at
which time the ordinance prohibits street
excavations.
A portion Of the street force is cleaning
up streets and lanes, and when the sewer
work is completed the street and lane clean
ing force will be augmented for the usual
general and thorough overhauling and
cleaning up to aid in the sanitation Of the
city.
In Alderman Falligant's department of
dry culture the same activity is manifested.
The repairs to the trunks and banks on
Hutchinson's Island have been completed
this week. There was a general overhaul
ing and repairing of the trunks, and sheet
plllng was driven IN new places The
drainage of the island is pronounced to be
in good condition. A force of men is at
work cleaning out the bitches on the
Springfield plantation, and another gang is
cleaning out the drains on the Lawton
plantation, under lease to the city.

Drs. Bernhardt and Matthez Will
Close Their Office on Saturday,
March 9th, at P. NJ.
1t may be years. and more than likely
never again, that any oculist or optician of
the same attainments as Drs. Bernhardt
and Matthez will visit Savannah, from the
fact that those who are eminent in their
profession in the larger cities, as specialists,
rarely leave their practice to visit the in
terror. That they have done so, many will
have cause for lasting JOY and those who
have failed to consult them, occasion for
deepest regret. The number of testimonials
we have published in their favor from
many of our well-known and respected
citizens have spoken more highly in their
favor than all we could say. In their deal
ings the doctors are upright and honorable,
and we have not upon any occasion heard
of a single individual who has visited them
who has not been pleased with their skill
in adapting lenses just suited to their vision.
We learn with profound regret their inten-
ton is t. close their Office here at the De
Soto on Saturday, March s.

Burke County Wants to Connect
With the South Bound.
The South Bound railroad is attracting
attention in an unexpected direction-iu
Burke county. A gentleman who is repre-
sentative citizens in that part of the state,
writing to friend in this city, says that
there would be no difficulty in raising suf-
ficient money in Waynesboro and the adj
Joining country to build road from that
place to Springfield, in bingham county,
to connect with the South
Bound railroad The distance is only
sixty-five miles, and the road
would pass through a we'll populated and
productive section. The proposed route
was surveyed two years ago for the Savan-
nah, Atlantic and Great Western railroad,
and the people promised very liberal sub
scriptions. The South Bound people will
doubtless do their part toward encouraging
the proposed Waynesboro aud Savannah
railroad.

One of the War Oglethorpes Visits
Savannah After Twenty-fo ears.
Among the most welcome callers at the
MORNING NEWS yesterday was Mr.. John A.
Belvin of New York The name is ia
miliar one to some of Savannah's older cit
liens. In 1861, when the "war drums were
beating" young Virginian who had been
engaged in mercantile pursuits In the West
Indies arrived in Savannah en- route for
home to offer his services in her defense.
Savannah was just sending her first
volunteers, and Mr.. Belvin Joined
the Oglethorpe Light Infantry.
He was severely wounded in the first
battle OF Manassas, and for many months
was compelled to go on crutches. During
that time he was a clerk in the war depart
ment. His many kindnesseS to his comrades
while he was detailed for duty in Richmond
are still remembered among the pleasures of
those trying years. Recovering from his
wound, Mr. Belvin again entered the army,
was captured and confined with the late
Capt. A. f. Butler. Of the Oglethorpos, at
Johnston's Island, Ohio.
This is MIR. Belvin's first visit to Savan-
nah, except when he stopped here for a few
hours in 1866, since he joined the Ogle-
thorpes, and was mustered into the con-
federate service in the military barracks
which stood where the De Soto now stands.
His name is on the muster roll Of a Savan-
nah company, and to that extent, at least,
his old comrades think that the city has a
claim on him, and he is therefore extended
a hearty welcome home.
Mr.. Belvin is now a merchant of New
York, and is en- route to the West Indies on
business. In the rather stout, well-preserved,
middle-aged merchant that called at the
MORNING NEWS Office yesterday, it was
barely possible to remember the young Vir-
glnia soldier Of twenty-nine years ago.

Night

The Young Mems Christian Association
gymnasium was formally opened last night
with reception and concert under the
auspices of the Ladies' Auxiliary Society.
The gymnasium building as completed is
much better suited to the purpose than

of ventilation it is superior TO that
Of the Atlanta association or any other
gymnasium hall in the south. 1t is almost
square, being 60x55 feet and 20 feet
from floor TO where the ceiling begius to
slope. Twelve feet above the floor is run
ming track around the building, which may
also be witnessed BY visitors who wish TO
step from the readiag room to view the
gymnasts at their exercises.

only few numbers. After it a reception
was held In the association parlors, and re-
freshments were served by the ladies of the

Travel Both North and South on a
Lively Boom.
Tourist travel is on the move now.
Every hotel in Savannah had as many
guests as it wanted yesterday. The
vestibule trains, both to and from Florida,
had full lists of passengers, the most of
whom on the down, as well as up trip,
stopped over in Savannah. The hotels are
booming, and they expect to live well for
several weeks.
''You will find that the registers will be
better from now until the close of the
season in April than at any other time this
season." said hotel man last night.
The tourists, he said, are dropping in on
Savannah from both ways. None of them
return north after visiting Florida without
stopping over here. Many stop as they go
down and when they return. Thus Savannah
gets a good deal more of them and has them
longer than any other Of the southern re-
sorts. Lent has no perceptible check upon
travel. The severe weather throughout the
north and west is driving tourists away for
few weeks. The severe weather came in
''fits and STARTS" and every few days the
trains are full to overlooking with people
getting out of the snow and sleet and rain.
General Manager Pugh of the Pennsyl-
vanla, who came south in his private car.
accompanied by his wife, a few days ago,
expressed the opinion that travel to the
south would be heavy after Lent. If this
turns out to be the case, this season will not
be so far behind the best seasons for travel
So far, of course, said hotel man yester-
day, this season has been failure compared
to the best seasons, but at no time
has the travel been better, considering
the lateness OF the season. Usually tour
lists are turning their heads northward
March l. This season they will stay south
longer. If the travel increases for the next
two or three weeks as it has for the last
week or two, the season will have been

Ireland.
Mrs. Michael A. Gallagher Of this city
has received a letter from her brother,
James Burke of county Galway, Ireland,
announcing the death of their brother,
Thomas Burke, well and favorably known
in Irish-American circles in Savannah.
The deceased was 50 years of age. unmar-
ried, and was for several years a clerk in
the Southern Express Office, a member
of the Irish Jasper Greens, and
of the Irish National League and
the Robert Emmett Association. He
was known, too, as a man OF more than
ordinary musical talent, and a vocalist
whose rich tenor voice was so much adj
mired by the congregation Of the Cathedral
and the Sacred Heart church, in both of
which churches be often sang.
Mr.. Burke, on account of failing health,
returned to Ireland last November, and had
so far regained his health that he was pre-
pairing to return in March, when he met
with fatal accident, on Jan. l,

home is in Clifden, county Galway, took q
drive five miles in the country to confer
with Miss Cottingham, sister of John G.
Cottingham of the stewards department of

ham was coming over to join her brother
here, with Mr.. Burke as her companion du
voyage. The horse Mr.. Burke was driving

life was despaired Of When he began to
recover the letter was forwarded, which Mr..
Gallagher received Yesterday.
