sAvANNAH's AMBULANCE.
An Improvement in the Service
Greatly Needed

Greatly Needed.
Savannah is away behind any city OF
equal size 10 the country in its ambulance
services. In fact there is no ambulance ssrv-
ice at all. There are three hospitals here
and none Of them have a conveyance for
sick or wounded people who may meet WITH
any unforese en- accident on the street.
The police department has 70 be depended
upon entirely on such occasions, and sorry
dependence 1t is to say the least. The bar
racks has wagon without mattresses or
anything of like character to lessen the
sutferings OF unfortunates who have to be-
conveyed In It. 1t is drawn with an old
horse which would hardly go faster than q
slow trot even were fire at his heels. The
wagon is used for hauling ice and other
freight to ths barracks, as well as common
DRINKS. aud sick aud wounded psople to the
hospitals.
Often when call is sent to the barracks
for the so~called lam buleac il is In au-
other part Of the city hauling srchaudise,
aud the person who should be taken
promptly to some place for treatment has
to lie on the sidewalk or street until the
wagon reports back to headquarters. Az
other times the horse is being shod or is
grazing. and delay necessarily follows
until he can be hunted up aud secured.
Many instances have been brought to the
attention OF the MORNING News where it
has taken the police ambulance from half
to three quarters OF an hour to respond TO a
cali. where the prompt removal OF injured
persons was required.
An alderman, speaking OF the matter a
day or two ago, said something will SION
have to be doae TO Improve the ambulance
service. His idea Is to have each OF the
hospitals equipped with an ambulance
wagon, With Fast horse and q fire goug
attachment, which can be run out like a
fire apparatus as soon as called. If the city
don't feel able to provide the hospitals Just
yet the alderman ehiRks flrst-class ambu-
lance wagon, provided with mattresses,
swinging harness and good horse, should be
out in the barracks, co be used only in cases
OF injury or Sickness and 20 be sent without
TIE delay OF waiting until the horse is shod
or FLASHES grazing.
The present wagon, he said could be used
for common DRINKS and the other needs of
the police department.

THINGS TALKED ABOUT.

People who ride over tie Thuuderbolt
and White Bluff she'll reads bscauss they
have to, make o just complaint that the
roads are net kept in the condition that
their patronage demands, and those who
ride or drive for pleasure do SO
as little as possible bscauss there Ia
little pleasure in riiing in the dense clouds
Of she'll dust that covers everything and
chokes both drivers and riders until they
can hardly breathe. There has been con
tinued complaint because the roads are not
watersd. The rates Of toll and the patron
age are amply sufficient 60 render their
being kept wsterSd aud in good condition
obligatory on the part OF the companies.
The increased patronage, il the
readways were sprinkled. would more than
pay the cost Of the sprtnkling. The 1hun-
dsrbolt road yesterday was covered with a
cloud of dust from the travel that made
riding q discomfort. The companies owe it
to the public that the roads bs kept watsred
aud In a condition that they can be Travelled
with some degree Of pleasure.

skipped by the light of the moon and lum-
Der wagon and were on their way to the far
west where they hoped TO find a home and

the Bluffs officials. Boyer had talk with
his captivcs ard it was understood by them
that they were all to start back last evening.
Mcclellan said that he would 20 without a
requistion and signed a written agreement
to that effect. 1t was supposed that every
thing had been arranged all right, and that
by this morning the trio would be well on
their homeward journey But they are still
here Boyer dropped out of sight at
ABOUT noon and was not seen again by
the officers at the city building
all day long and at II o'clock last night he
was still among the missing. The police
were very much alarmed for his safety. He
appeared like rather innocent fellow and 1t
was feared that perhaps he might have gone
out to rub some of the gliding off of the pal
aces of sin that held their doors open last
evening to ent rap the unwary. Whether he
had been robbed of his clothes while seeing
the sights. or had been buckcd by the tiger
and did not regain consciousness in time to
catch the tram, was not known, but at all
events his absence caused consider dble

who were serving out sentences for various
offences. Seven of them were drunks who
had been arrested yesterday, and there were
five who had been arrested on the same
charge between : O'Clock and midnight Sat

but one, who had not recovered from the
effects of his experience with the flowing
bowl.

be seen almost any day, with anywhere
from one to twenty men following in
his wake, armed with shovels, broons and
other articles which are used in cleaning
the streets, was surveying the landscape Mt

He is the captain of the chain gang. He
was thinking what an elegant crew of men
he would have to put at work on the streets
today, aud that incidentally reminded him
that Broadway is not in very good condition,
in spite of the fact that it was only few
days ago that he went over it with his gang.
