that liquids strongly impregnated with
gases and alkali have been the mos,
efflcacious, and it is but matter Of
time when liquid strongly impreg-
mated with those substances will be dis
covered that will effectually destroy
the microbes or Germs Of Disease.
1t is an organic form of such extreme
minuteness as to be classified under
the head of Micrococci. The Microbe
Is spherodical, transparent and of a
gelatinous Consistence. 1t enters the
human system by inhalation, or EXISTS
in the water or milk we drink, or the
| food we eat. 1t is able to stand the
greatest amount of heat. By the most
careful study and frequent experiments
microbes have been induced, by ivory
needles, into meats that have been
thorouhly roasted and boiled, and
yet, when taken from the ovens, pans,
grldlrons or pots, the microbes have
been found to be yet alive and propa.
eating, thus showing that even cooking
has no effect upon them.
Professor Tyndall says of the Mi
crobe: They are found in myriads
and countless shapes, floating in the
air, destroying man as we'll as beas,
and vegetation. The virtual triumphs
OF the antiseptic system of surgery is
based on The recognition of living con
tagR OF microbes, as the agent of puri-
cation, and this discovery made, it be-
hoores the closest study of the subject
by the physician, surgeon, chemist,
agrlculturist, in fact by all men, to en-
deavor to discover some powerful liquid
substance, heavily charged with some
SO far undiscovered gaseous substance
that will penetrate through every tissue
OF the human, animal or vegetable sys-
tenn and effectually destroy that death
dealing pest, the Microbe.
The word Microbe was first intro
duced by Professor Charles Sedillot,
and endorsed by the great philogist,
Littre, who caused its adoption by the
Academic de Seances of France. and
thus had it admitted as scientific
/ term to be used by all scientists.
| Science has taught US that the direct
causes of contagious diseases are d.
rectly attributable to a minute, invis-
bic, yet death-dealing insect, feeding,
living on the germs Of corruption in
hailed, absorbed in the system, whether
human, animal or vegetable.
1t is designated in science that as
the Microbe, the most deadly Of all
animalcula, progagating by millions,
and spreading disease wherever it
makes its appearance. The extermina-
ton of that curse to the human race has
taxed the ablest scientists, who have
devoted hours of study in each and
every branch of their different re-
searches to check the frightful inroads
made by the microbe upon whatever it
attacks.

Jack Donovan Does Up August With
Ease.

Jack Donovan Does Up August With
Ease.
About 100 men gathered at Ford's opera
bouse last night to witness the sparring
match between Jack Donovan and Thomas
August. Donovan is the young professional
who says he will fight any man of his own
weight. He was formerly of Charleston,
but now halls from New York. August is
Savannah bricklayer who prides himself
on his muscle
The crowd gathered early and grew i'm
patient while waiting for the contest
ants. The managers of the affair
put up couple of locals,
Jones of Yamacraw and Brown from the
Old Fort. They spared three lively
rounds. Yamacraw drew blood in second
round and the fight resulted in his favor.
David Clark and Dennis Doyle were next
put up. and spared three rounds. The
match was declared draw.
Donovan and August appeared or the
etage stripped for action and Referee Fitz-
patrick called time. The men
shook hands and spared for an
opening. After minute or two Donovan
landed good one on Augustus breast. The
first round ended without result to either
party.
In the second round Donovan boxed Au-
gust all over the stage. August got in no
hcks, and seemed to be only trying TO stand
up before Donovan. August got in two or
three light taps on Donovan in the third
round and was hit several times in return.
Donovan came near finishing August in
the fourth round. He struck him a right
handler on the nose that sent him to his feet
and brought stream of blood. This seemed
to make August mad, and he rushed Dono-
van little. Donovan followed up his sue
cess with several blows on the face and
neck, one of which on the side Of the head
that nearly fioored him again.
In the fifth round August cameup looking
red and determined, while Donovan was
pale and calm. The crowd urged August
to "hit him." but with lively sparring he
only got in a few light ticks.
When time was called for the sixth round
August was evidently nearly played out.
He clinched with Donovan number of
times. causing the referee to order them to
break" Donovan did not take advantage
of his opportunities, as he could have easily
finished August in this round, but he gave
him one good one on the side of his head
When time was called for the seventh
round August failed to come up and the
referee declared the match in favor of
Donovan.
August said he strained his back lifting a
heavy piece of lumber some days ago. Dom
ovan's blows brought back the pain. He
was physically in no condition to fight.
Donovan announced from the stage that
August was a much better man than the
crowd gave him credit for The crowd
thought August took his punish ment we'll,
but they were disappointed because he
got in no good ticks.
The fight was with three ounce gloves
under Police Gazette rules. Donovan will
remain in the city about two weeks longer,
and is willing to fight any man of his own
weight.

SUMMER TRAVRL RATES.
Sunday Excursions to be Put on From
Atlanta ana Macon to Tybee.

General Passenger Agent Charlton of
the Central railroad returned yesterday
from Virginia Beach, where he has been
attending the Southern Passenger Associa-
tion's meeting. Considerable business
appertaining to this section of the country
was done. July rates were fixed. The
rates all over the south during next month
will be very low.
The matter of the most Importance to Sa-
vannah, Mr.. Charlton said, was the estab-
fishing OF Sunday rates from Macon and
Atlanta to Savannah. The tickets will go
on sale next Saturday and are good for
Sunday at Tybee. The round trip fare
from Atlanta win be "a so, and
leave Atlanta Saturday afternoon,
and may return on any train
up to and including the regular 10 fast
mail train Sunday night. The rate from
Atlanta now is SIS 10, and from Macon it is
SOL These tickets are good for the en-
tire summer season. The new rates are
only for Sunday business.
Mr.. Charlton thought that the passenger
traffic from these points to Savannah and
Tybee guaranteed putting on the low rates,
and Iybee business over the Central from
North Georgia will now be pushed He
said that it is an experiment, but he believes
that it will be a successful one. Already
the travel from North Georgia is heavy.
There is desire to come tins way. Tybee
is furnishing enough attraction for them,
and none ever come but they wish to re-
turn. As the rates have been, they were
unable to do so, except at high fare. The
Augusta travel to Tybee over the Central
is large and it is increasing every Sunday.
Ii promises to far surpass that Of last
season.
Among the other business transacted at
Virginia Beach, MIR. Charlton said, was the
Fourth of July rate, which is fixed at 2
cents mile Travelled. Tickets will be on
sale on July 3 and 4. and will be good to
return as late as July z.
A rate was also made for the Grand Army
of the Republic encampment in Boston in
August. This will be one fare for the round
trip
A rate was fixed to the colored firemen's
tournament in Macon, july. for parties
travelling twenty-five in number, cent a
mile; individuals 2 cents mile.
A rate Of 2 cents per mile was given the

city present, who accompanied the bridal
couple to Savannah by last nights train.
The presents were numerous and elab-
crate. The Pooler club presented the newly
welded pair with 200 pieces of china. Mr.

TYBEE ON A BOOM.
The Last Chance to Get a Cottage by
the Sea.

the Sea.
To those who leave the city when the sun
is hottest and step off the train at Tybee
the change is wonderful There the cool
sea breezes dispel the heat and invigorate
and refresh. There is no tossing on sleep
less bed at Tybee, for the nights are as cool
and pleasant as a November night in the
city.
This is why the Tybee hotels are filling
up, aud why 80 many are purchasing lots
on the island, so they may have their own
cottages by the sea.
No wonder Tybee is on a boom. The
social clubs, the military and citizens gen
orally are getting summer homes on the
island. A postoff1ce has been established,
the place Is under police protection, artesian
water is in abundance, and lots have quad
rupled In value since the first annual sale
by the Tybee Beach Company year ago,
and lots to be sold tomorrow and next day
will be worth four or five times as much a
year hence.
The lots fronting the ocean are going off
rapidly, and it is quite likely that this week
will be the last chance for buyers to buy
from the company. To get such property
a year hence they will have to be bought at
fancy prices from those who make pur-
chases tomorrow and Thursday, if any
price will tempt them to sell.
The second annual sale will commence at
Graham's new pavilion on Tybee tomorrow
morning at 1890 o'clock standard time, and
also on Thursday at the same time and
place.
Lots on the beach. on the quiet inlet, In
the beautifully shaded portions of the island
west of the railroad, and on the park front
will be sold, and as terms are liberal there
is no excuse If the opportunity is lost. Next

COTTAGE LIFE AT TYBEE.
An Enjoyable Way of Living.


"Many men land women tool of MANY
minds" is illustrated in all the affairs of
life.
One family would not go to Tybee unless
they could go to one of the hotels where
there is lots of gaiety and excitement. To
compensate for that preference another
family is emphatic in their denunciations
of hotel life. They say that the weather is
too warm for the ladies to be compelled to
make three toilets day. What is needed
is quiet, private place where wrappers"
and mother hubbards may be worn all day.
1t is necessary for the children to have abso-
lutte freedom to romp and make all the fuss
they want to, which cannot be done at
hotel. The men want to trough itn-pull
off their coats and smoke when and where
they please. In short they want freedom
from restraint and the ease and go-as-you-
please enjoyment that can only be had in
cottage life.
One-third cash and two years to pay the
balance secures a lot. A cheap cottage
completes the outfit, and the whole invest
ment is so easily had and represents so little
effort and outlay that the wonder is that it
was not accomplished before. The results
in solid enjoyment, increased healthfulness
of children, reduction of doctors bills and
general dispelling of cobwebs from the
brain soon class this as the best paying in
vestment of all.-AdU.

of Trains.
The directors of the Savannah and At
lantic railway held a meeting yesterday, at
which important changes were made in the
flag stations on Tybee Island.
The stopping place at Furber's Point was
changed 20 a point about $50 feet west

one stop for the Beach house, Ocean house
and the Seaside pavilion, which will be at
the covered shed or depot, just south of the
entrance to the Ocean house. These changes
will go into effect on and after Thursday,
