Special 10 the JERSEY City Netos.
OCEANIC, Nov. Is. 1S91.-A difficult sur
gical operation was successfully per-
formed here upon Mrs. Elizabeth Het-
rick of Elizabeth. Six months z Mrs.
Hetrick, while eating. swallowed a small
piece Of bone, which stuck In her throat
and lodged there.
The bone did not trouble her until three
months later, when her health COM
menced to fail because of nervousness.
An operation was performed which was
not successful. The effort to dislodge the
bore imbedded it more armly. and in
time the bone became inserted In the
membrane of the glottis.
Last week Mrs. Hetrick went to Oceanic
on a visit to Mrs. Charles Zimmerman,
her daughter. She suffered greatly from
nervous prostration, and it was necessary
to call a physician in. Dir. Walter S
Whitmore of Oceanic was summoned
and he concluded to perform an opera
ton, as the woman's health was rapidly
failing. He succeeded in extracting thu
bone, and Mrs. Hetrick is greatly i'm
proved.

TRENTON, Nov. Is, 1891.-The New Jer-
sey Chicago Fair Commissioners. who. in
company with Governor Albeit, went to
Chicago last Saturday, have returned.
The object Of their visit was to
look over the ground, see the prog
ress made. and select a site for the
New Jersey building. Governor Albeit
was greatly pleased with the enterprise
and progress shown, and stated that he
would not believe thet SO much had been
accomplished If he had not seen it. He
says that he will recommend in his
annual message to the Legislature an
appropriation that will place New Jersey
in the position she rightly deserves.
A site was selected for New Jersey in
one of the most desirable portions OF the
park, very close to the Art Gallery, near
the lake, and in a cluster of the thirteen
original States. 1t is a corner of the
fourth circle. which is 1875 feet on two
sides. 100 feet On another, and 9S feet on
the other.
The Commission will soon ask New
Jersey architects for plans for the State
building. 1t will be constructed through
out of New Jersey materials. and will be
all put together in this State and shipped
to Chicago, so that it can be erected there
without loss of time.

Best Pigeon shoot on Record.

in b%rilliancy in this or any other country.
When the winning mar kills 100 birds
straight aud the loser kills 80, with the
lost bird falling dead just out of bounds,
the performance is something astound-
ing. Yet this was the record made in the
match between E. d. Fulford of this city.

and Captain Sohn N. Brewer, the cham

reality, never has been equalled, for
when AL Baudle of Cincinnati performed
the same feat it was don't with a 10-gauge
gun. while the score of yesterday was
made with a light 12-gauge. The scores
were:-Fulford, 100: Brewer, 80. The
second shoot will be decided today and

Ten Inches of Eaiu so Far During
This Month.
The heavy downpour continues. Very
heavy rains were reported from all over the
south yesterday. An inch and quarter Of
rain fell in Savannah yesterday afternoon.
About the same amount was reported from
Cordele, Eastman aud Millen in this district
Charleston reported over an inch Of rain,
Augusta over an inch and half. and Fort
Smith an inch and quarter.
Atlanta, Augusta. Little Rock. Mobile,
Montgomery, New Orleans, Savannah,
Vicksburg and Wilmington all reported
generally heavy rainfall yesterday. 1t is
hardly possible that the heavy rains will
result in greatly decreasing the cotton crop
this fall, and the prospects are that the
rainy season will last several days yet.
July has generally been a cool, rainy
month. There has been rain nearly two
DAYS out of three and the temperature has
averaged considerably below the normal.
There have been over ten inches OF rain up
to date this month, which is already twice
the usual rainfall for July. The rainfall
for the entire month last year was 772,
which was considered a heavy rainfall
The heaviest rainfall known for July was
200 inches July IS. Other heavy rAinfalls
were l inch July 6, 1888 July %, 16)

TIE GILBERT BALLOT BILL.
Some Features In 1t Not Meeting With
Approval

Some Features In 1t Not Meeting With
Approval
The sentiment of Savannahians seems to
strongly favor the Gilbert ballot reform
bill with a few exceptions, the principal
one Of which is the section which takes out
Of the hands of the county commissioners
the appointment of the election commits
sioners and puts it into the hands of the
ordinary of each county This is considered
rather bad policy, for the reason that ordi-
naries are elected by the people, and might
favor certain classes, while the county COM
missioners, being board of representative
citizens appointed by the governor, are
most likely 60 appoint managers who are
strictly impartial.
Another clause to which objection is
made is that which gives man three min-
utes to vote, which, should he happen to
spoil the ballots, is increased to six minutes
About twenty-five precincts would be re-
dured in Chatham county, under that pro-
vision, said an official otherwise the full
vote would hardly ever be polled. All the
county officials express themselves anxious
to have law passed which will give purer
elections. The sentiment of the city officials
is likewise.
II the defects spoken of are remedied, the
bill will meet the approval of all the citizens
of Savannah who are interested in a reform
in city and county elections.

COMPLIMENTS FOR TaE MAYOR.
His Enforcement of the Sunday Law

His Enforcement of the Sunday Law
Wins Indoors m snt Abroad.
Mayor McDo nough's breaking up Of the
Sunday liquor traffic in Savannah has and
is winning for him praise from all parts of
the state His determined course has even
been made the subject Of most favorable
comment in the north Recently the Au-
gusta Chronicle spoke in a complimentary
manner Of his enforcement Of the Sunday
law, and the Sylvania Telephone OF Friday.
July 10. had the following:
1.-The pronounced anti whisky and the
conservative element of Savannah is en-
thusiastic over the record which Mayor
McDonough has made since he has been in
charge of municipal affairs. He has been a
holy terror to everything in the shape OF
wrong doing. The whisky men and toughs
of the town haven't quite been able to
get into the channel marked out by
him. The reformation was so sweeping
that it struck them broadsider, and it is
difficult for them to recover from the shock
The barkeepers used to keep their little side
and back doors open on Sunday, but they
can't do it now. Mayor McDonough said
no. The barkeepers used to be guilty Of q
great many little acts that didn't conform
with what is right aud proper, but they
can't do it now. Mr.. McDonough said no.
And the clubs--t. e., barrooms under a
mask-have been keeping open on Sundays
for the convenience of their aristocratic
members, among whom are men high in
business and social life in Savannah, but
against these disguised dens Mayor Melon
ough is saying no just as emphatically as he
is able, and he will do as he mas always done
carry his point
