C. V. Hernandez is acting clerk in his aD-
sence.
The city council finance committee has
before it an offer from Cobb's Military
band 70 give a series Of band concerts in the
park at the actual cost Of the concert.
The city council has passed an ordinance
fixing the width Of the sidewalks around
the new court house. The sidewalk on the
President street side will be fifteen feet
wide, and that in front of the court house
will extend to a line with the sidewalk in
front Of the Luthersn church. The side
walks on the Dravton and York street sides
will conform to existing ordinances. The
work of putting down the sidewalks will be
pushed as rapidly as possible. The walks
will be of asphalt blocks, similar TO the
pavement in front of the city exchange.
Alderman Harris is an advocate of con-
venient street car schedules, aud be intro
duced resolution at the last meeting of
the city council requiring the roads to run
ten minute schedule from 6 O'Clock a. m.
TO 10 o'clock p. m., and q twenty minute
schedule from 10 o'clock D. m. until mid
night. The resolution was referred to the
special committee on street railways. A
good many people are in favor of having
such law now if it could be enforced.
There is hardly doubt that.the council will
require a schedule, when electric motors
are put IN use, that will give a convenient
service both by day and night.
The lack of any uniform law regulating
the erection of buildings in the city is to be
supplied. Alderman Bailey offered a reso-
luton at the last meeting of the city coun-
Gil authorizing the mayor to appoint a
~anl - OIL
men to frame an ordinance govern
ing building within the city limits.
The resolution was unanimously adopted.
The ordinance when framed will probably
provide for the appointnaSt of a building
inspector. Alderman Carson gave notice
in council some time ago when the trouble
arose over the rebuilding OF the Boley
building at Broughton and Jefferson streets
that he would, at a future meeting, intro
duce an ordinance creating that Office. 1t
will probably be created by the ordinance
introduced by the special committee.
Alderman Bailey offered resolution at
the last meeting of the city council, author
iZing the street and lane committee to
expend such amount as may be necessary
| TO pave Bay street from Drayton to Whita-
noiseless pavement. The object OF
| the Improvement is to do away
with the rattle Of drays and other vehicles,
which, over the present cobble stone pave
ment, renders il almost impossible, on &C
count of the noise TO hold meetings in the
city council chamter, or in the mayors
Office, or any of the city offices. The an
noyance is of long standing, and has been
complained Of repeatedly by the judges
and other officers Of the United States
courts which meet in the custom house
building. Alderman Myers objected TO
Alderman Balley's resolution until an esti-
mate Of the est Of the pavement had been
OBJ aimed, and it was referred to the street
and lane committee with instructions to
| obtain such an estimate.

He 10 Unable to Talk and His State
ment Not Yet Obtained.
Joe Waters (colored). who was shot Tues
day night by young CORTLAND Dixon, is
yet unable to talk, and the authorities have
not been able to get his statement of the
shooting. The bullet penetrated his lungs
and be was splitting blood yesterday.
The preliminary examination of Dixon
has not yet been held. 1t has developed
that several other young men were con-
nected with the affair besides CORTLAND
Dixon, though it does not appear that any
of the others did any shooting. Parties
passing in the neighborhood Of where the
trouble occurred before and after the shoot
ing noticed the excited actions of the young
men, but did not understand their meaning
at the time
Waters friends say that he is sober,
peaceable and quiet negro, that he has never
been arrested AID is not drinking man.

HAPPY GUN CLUB MEN.
The Forest Citys to 60 to waycross
Next Week

The Forest Citys to Go to Waycroes
Next Week.
The Forest City Gun Club team will shoot
in Waycross, Thursday, Aug. rs, against the
Waycross and Brunswick teams.
Jacksonville and Townsville have also
been invited to send teams, and will prob
ably enter. Each club will put in $50 to
go to the winners besides the usual sweep
stake prizes. There will be an individual
championship match between Ulmer of
the Forest Citys and DuBose of the Glynns
The Forest Citys are practicing daily, and
are determined not to lose this time
Hospitalities were so heaped upon the
Forest Citys in Brunswick that the mem
ory OF their defeat was wiped out alto
gether. President Kieffer says he was
never so royalty treated in his life. The
team were the guests of the Glynns during
their entire stay, and were not allowed to
pay for anything. Everything was theirs,
and they practically owned the town. Mon
day night, after the shoot, they were given
champagne supper, over seventy-five
being present, including many of the best
citizens of Brunswick.
Capt. j. K. Dart was the orator of the
evening. He dwelt at length upon the
friendly relations existing between Savan-
nah and Brunswick, and the uany frater-
nal ties connecting them. Many other
speeches of the same order were made The
visitors were SO overwhelmed with courtesy
that they found it almost impossible TO get
away.
The Waycross shoot will be the last this
season for which the Forest Citys will leave
home. They are now making arrangements
to close the season with @ grand live bird
shoot in Savannah ABOUT the middle of next
month, to which all the neighboring clubs
in Georgia, South Carolina and Florida will
be invited

Nervousness in Horses.

There is one respect in which oil the most
distinguished trotters have resembled each
other, and that is in their nervous energy, in
high spirit and courage. That flame which
the Washington Hollow horseman detected in
the eye of Flora Temple came out afterward
in the lesolute burst of speed with which she
finished her fast miles. Dexter was repre-
sented as being ''chock full of fire and devil
try" and capable of jumping like a cat. Hi
ram Woodruff spoke of his wicked head"
Goldsmith Maid had a strong will Of her own,
and the excitement she betrayed OH the eve
of a race showed how fine was her organiza-
ton. "She would stand quietly enough"
says her driver, while being hitched to the
sulky, although she had been previously kick.
ing and plunging in her stall, but she would
shake and tremble until l have heard her feet
make the same noise against the hard ground
that q persons teeth will when the body is
suddenly chilled; that is, her feet actually
chartered on the ground.
"The instant l would get into the sulky all
this would pass away, and she would start in
a walk for the track as sober as any old horse
you ever saw" Rarus was SO nervous that
he never could nave been driven with safety
on the road, and his courage was of the finest
temper. st. Julian was exceedingly high
strung, and i'll hands less patient and discreet
than those of his trainer might never have
been subdued to the purpose of racing. Jay
Eye-See, though | know less of his personal
history, is notorious for the pluck he showed
on the last quarters of his hard miles, and
Maud S. is the most spirited, the most deter
mined and at the same time the gentlest of
animals.-H. c.. Merwin in Atlantic Monthly.

Popular

There is nothing that so arouses an interest
in an institution Of this kind as a spirited
contest over the election of officers. Take
the Merchants Exchange, for instance, or
the Commercial Travellers association; both
are stronger and better in every way after
the exciting elections they always hold for
officers. In Cincinnati one of the institutions
of which they are the ~proudest is the Mer-
camille library, and the honor Of being its
president for one year is SO highly priced
that contests Of such friendly fierceness rage
that the papers are full Of Jews of the cam
paign for weeks. Eminent citizens are placed
on the rival tickets, and their friends rally
to their support. l am told of one case
where SO ambitious was a wealthy safe
maker to secure the coveted honor that on
the day before the election he purchased
yearly membership for his 1900 employees,
and they marched to his aid in a solid body
the next day. Similar instances, but not
quite so extensive, have been frequent, and
the result of the agitation is to keep the
library constantly before the people, with a
result that its membership is constantly
swelling, and it is, by reason of its wealth,
one of the finest libraries in the country

Wales is thirteen miles south and in a
different geological formation, from the
Ignite belt of Slaughter. There is no coal
here, but there are valuable sandstone
quarries in the neighborhood.
Wales is a German settlement and not a
colony OF Wcls.lmen, as might be inferred
from its name. 1t was named in honor of
Dr. Wales, a former popular s~urgeOn-gen-
eral of the United States army.
1t is hoped that our county commission
