The project Of building a railway to the

which at first sight seems chimerical, does
not so appear ON the interesting descri~-
ton of the enterprise published in the Rail
,Ody Age. Although the grand peak rises
1l,000 feet alb I'VE the surrounding valley, or
1850 above the sea, it is proposed to reach
the summit by series of inclined tunnels
aggregating q, 400 feet in lsngth--about
four miles-with grades varying from 80 to
SO per cent. in other words, by means of
gigantic elevator, OF ''llft,n as
they say in England, with occasional
openings to the surface furnishing landings
where the tourists may stand and take in the
wonderful panorama at different nights.
At present a few venturesome climbers
who reach the summit Of Jungfrau have to
pay $40 for their guides and Eaarars alone,
beside other expenses, while the proposed
charge for the round trip by the railway is
about one-quarter of that, or S13 AS,
however, the length of the road is only
four miles, it may be said that this charge
will resemble the road itself in being de-
cidedly steep.

When 10 is realiz d that over 1900

in this district aloLe, and that over eleven

the data, some idea may be had of the ex-
tent of the work. Some Of the schedules
have 70 be returned 20 the enumsrators
three times aud So netimes four times Tor

While the majority Of returns have been
received from all the counties in the dis

the inaccuracy Of many of the schedules
aud the delays In returning them for corr &c

The population of Savannah according 10
the revised schedules, Superyi-. Beckett
says, will vary but q sew hundred at the
outside from re original estimate.
Every complaint which came TO the super
visor was investigated, and in every in-
stance, ne says, where there was reason to
believe that any one had not been elumer-
ated the matter was thoroughly looked
into. There were comparatively few COM
plants ia regard 10 the enumeration, and
Supervisor Beckett believes that the work
has been in the main tn Jroughly done.
Savannah has mad less trouble with its
enumeration than most cities in the south.

last week, arr slowly impr wing. Mr.. Bull
lard returned yesterday from Carolina,
where be went TO carry the remains of his

Tne mystery of the fatal explosion is as
much Of mystery as it was the day after it
occurred. There IS hardly a person. how
ever, who does not have some theory. 1t
was thought yesterday that clew had been
found In a empty gasoline can which was

Robbins was Familiarity known as the
Pop Corn Man" He had a stand
corn as he popped 1t in a
cart. He used gasoline
lamp, and one theory was that the explosion
was from a can Of gasoline which Robbins
might have bad in the house
Another theory which has been advanced
by those who are not inclined TO attribute
the disaster to a criminal motive is
that the explosion was caused by
an accumulation Of gas under the
floor Of the house. The floor was twelve
OF fifteen inches above the ground, leaving
considerable space bel Nv it. Although gas
was not used in the house, and was turned
Off it as only turned off at the me err,
and the pipes under he house leading from

pipes in contact with the ground frequently
rust 50 that they are thrown aside.
This particular theory is that a
pipe in this instance rusted off, allowing
the gas to escape under the floor and 81
accumulate there, and then to escape into
the hall, where it was ignited, causing an
explosion and lifting the floor from the
Joists, splintering it and leaving the joists
intact. -f
