Tho Glass Sale q Success.


Not all closed out, however, though our
success and the great number of our visitors
were highly gratifying to u.s. This week
will continue the Glassware and Crockery
sale, and a general clearing out of odd arti-
Giles in Bric-a-Brac and fine ornamental
goods. Those who have not thus far
availed themselves of our invitation should
not allow this week to pass without visit
TO Our Second Floor. The collection Of
rare and beautiful novelties displayed Is
worth beholding, merely from an artistic
standpoint. even though you may not want
or may not buy a single article, which,
however, will not render your visit less
pleasing to US. A promenade through our
iewelry and stlverware show room on first
floor will not be amiss either, as YOU will
see much and derive, We think, sufficient
pleasure from the visit to compensate for
your trouble in coming. We also display a
superb line of Onyx Clocks and Tables.
Brass and Bronze Goods, etc. Our prices
are very low, as you will find on inquiry.

streams on some Of the principal streets
The rain partly held up duri g the after
noon, but at night it began again, and be-
tween 10 O'Clock and midnight it poured
down In sheets. with heavy gusts Of wind,
accompanied By some thunder aud con-
siderable lightning. At midnight the wind
ceased, but light drilling rain was still
falling.

The rain was heaviest In the South At
lantic states, Alabama, East Tennessee and
Mississippi, and much lighter in the south
western states, where there was a heavy
rainfall the previous day. This gem

western gulf Monday night and which
moved enthusiastically to the coast Of Ala
bama and West Florida, from which 1t
moved northward aud was reported central
over Northern Alabama last night.
1t was slowly moving northward last
night with diminishing force.

hoisted at 10 O'Clock yesterday morning at
the Savannah signal office, but a change
was ordered to southeast from Washington
last night.
a good deal of rain may be expected TO-

Recent Decision Upon What Words
Violate the Protective Law.
From the New York Tribune.

.
From the KeC York Tribune.
Judge Wheeler of the United States dis
trict court of Vermont, has gone further
than other judges in constituting the law
prohibiting the mailing of envelopes having
on the outside words calculated to reflect
injuriously upon the character of any one.
Under this law persons have been fined or
imprisoned for sending dunning letters on
the envelopes containing which were writ
ten words indicating doubt whether the
debt would be paid s
Judge Wheeler has just decided that the
law was violated by sending through the
mails letters contained in envelopes bearing
the words, Excelsior Collection Agency"
printed in large letters across the upper
half OF the envelope. The judge says that
the printed words are separate from the
directions to return TO the respondent if not
called for, in the lower left baud corner;
and were obviously placed so as to attract
attention, and reflect delinquency in pay
ment upon the person sent to. The object
probably was to make the person pay up to
avoid repetition of the reflection" The
protection of individual against annoyances
is much more nearly perfect than before
the passage of the amendment of 1888, IN
der which Judge Wheeler's decision was
rendered.

SEARCH FOR ASTRANGER
q. q. DILLON DISAPPEARS FROM
THE PULASKI

a Wealthy Young Nova Scotian
Leaves the Hotel for Walk and is
Not Seen Afterward-The Police
Unable TO Obtain Clew to Him-He
Engages Quarters for Els Father
and Mother, Who Are Expected at
the Pulaski Next Week, and Then
Drops Out OF Sight, Leaving Velu-
able Baggage.
Savannah may have a parallel case with
that Of Dr. Cronin of Chicago. A young
man has been missing from the Pulaski
house for five days, and all efforts to trace
him have so far been unsuccessful. Mys-
FERROUS disappearances Of this character
have been Of frequent occurrence in other
cities, but Savannah has heretofore been
exempt
B. D. DeLeon, about 20 years old, regis
tered at the Pulaski Saturday, Oct. IL, from
St GATHERINGS. n. S. He appeared to have
plenty Of money, was well-dressed, and re-
fined in his manners. and made numerous
friends He engaged rooms at the hotel for
his father, mother and sister, who, he said,
would arrive in Savannah about Nov. l.
hotel, and from then until the present time
nothing has been heard of him, and no
trace of him even can be found. His
absence the first few days did not attract
much attention, but, as it continued, sus-
picions were aroused, and efforts were
made to locate him.
The police were notified of DeLeon's mys-
FERROUS disappearance, and have been en-
gagged for several days trying TO get some in
formation about him, but so far have been
unsuccessful No one saw him after he left
the Pulaski house, and he was apparently a
man Of steady habits, it is feared he has
been foully dealt with, or he would have
made his way back TO the hotel, where he
left large trunk full of clothes, some of
which Seem to have never been worn, be-
sides other articles. Every place it was
thought possible be might have gone has
been visited, but no clew can be
had. II the earth had opened and
swallowed DeLeon his disappearance could
not have been more complete. When he
left the hotel he had on a neat-ftting gray
suit and wore gold watch and chain.
DeLeon is a man about feet 10 inches in
hight, weighs about 140 pounds, and has
brown curly hair ard blue eyes.
