the ardor should cool off in time. Still, let
him hear of stamp in any part of the

FEAST OF THE PALMS.
To-day the Beginning of the Last
Week in Lent.

To-day the Beginning of the Last
Week in Lent.
To-day is Palm Sunday, one OF the most
important feast days of the Catholic church.
1t is the day on which Christ's entry into
Jerusalem is celebrated. Palms will be
blessed by the priests before mass aad
distributed to the faithful.
The clergy walk in procession through
the church and pass outside. Then
cantors enter the church, leaving
the rest without; the hymn, "Gloria,
Laus ct Honor" is sung, both
those inside and those outside taking part
AT the conclusion of the hymn the sub-dea-
con knocks at the door with the shaft of the
professional cross, and the whole body
march up to the altar.
The name of Palm Sunday e'Dominica las
Palmas'9 is ancient, for it occurs in the life
of Euthymius, who died in 472, and is
spoken of as great day by Isidore Of Sc
vile. In ancient times those who were to
be baptized on Holy Saturday heard the
whole creed on this Sunday.
The day is also observed by the Episcopal
church, and special services are held in rec
ognition Of 1t.

TIE cIrY,s FOOD paopuoE.
Plenty OF II, and In Good Quality-The
Markers Condition.

Plenty OF Il, and In GO ID Quality-The
Markers Condition.
Inspector Desvergers Of the Citizens
Sanitary Association. in his report of inspec-
tons of food produce in the Savannah mar
ket for the week ending last night, says
that dressed beef. dressed mutton and
dressed pork averaged good in quality; also
dressed poultry, game and dressed vsnison ;
corned and smoked beef, sausages and meat
puddings; picked beef. picked rigs feet,
picked tongues and tripe, both picked and
fresh. Fish and oysters averaged good, also
such fruit as bananas and oranges. Green
vegetables averaged excellent ana in great
variety and abundance, and dried fruits
averaged good.
The inspector reports, in reference to the
condition of the market house and its sur
roundings, that the market clerk has
effected considerable improvement in one
particular, the removal Of the hacked and
filthy boards from the meat stalls and their
replacement with new and smooth ones
but the wooden Stats which the butchers
use instead Of chopping blocks are still
there, despite the ordinance which pre-
scribes that mo meats shall he chopped ex-
cept upon the blocks provided for that pur-
pose.n These slabs have been hacked into
shallow troughs.
ne Inspector SAYS tHaJ on bne CnOpplng
blocks the grains of the wood are struck in a
vertical position, and consequently but lit
tie hacking and noise result from the blows
of the ak, while on the slabs, the grains
being crosswise, the opposite is the result,
and the sound of every blow of the az re-
sounds through the market to the dscom-
future in the early morning of the inmates
of the hotels and dwellings in the vicinity.
The streets on all sides of the market, ex>
cept on Congress street, are the subjects OF
complaint, owing to their filthy condition.
Bryan street yesterday, right against the
market building, was in an exceedingly
foul and muddy condition, and stall renters
on that side complained of the stencil
arising from it. The Inspector says that
these complaints will last as long as the
nuisance remains undated, aud that it can
only be abated by the removal OF all of the
cobble stone pavements from the market
square, and its replacement by pavement
similar to that on Congress street side.
The inspector says that while the mar
ket clerk is evidently trying to enforce
cleanliness about the market. his efforts are
Offset by the obduracy OF poultry dealers,
who persist in bringing filthy coops into
the market. Yesterday the clerk had to
enforce the removal of number from the
first floor of the market, and while the
odor from them was exceedingly pro-
nounced; that from number of exceed
ingly filthy coops piled in the passage way
of the basement and in one of the vaults
was almost intolerable.

THE RIVER FALLING SLOWLY.

Higher Than the Tidal Wave OF 81
and the Great Freshet OF 80.
The Savannah river. after the biggest
boom ever known, at least in the present
generation, is gradually and but very slowly
falling.
As far as the eye can see, looking from
the cupola of the MORNING News building,
there is nothing but water. Back river APP
pears to extend from the banks of Hutchin-
son Island to the pine woods in South Caro-
lima.
The river is higher than it was during the
great tidal wave Of August, 1881, and is
foot and half higher at the Screven plan.
tation than in 1888.
Nearly every rice plantation on both
sides of the river is under water and though
little if any rice has been planted, consider
BILE loss will be entailed upon planters by
reason Of the running of water over the check
banks and the necessity of doing over again
a great deal of the work which is necessary
to be done before planting. There is some
consolation. however, in che fact that the
damage is nothing compared with what 1t
would have been had the freshet came few
weeks later on, or during the harvest.
