TO TAKE MORE TINE.

The Mcbride end Marks g. Co. Gases
to be Heard by the Council Next
Week.
The meeting Of city council last night was
one of the largest attended since Mayor
McDonough took the reins of government
Ali the seats within the enclosure were &C.
cupied, and the open space outside was
crowded. The magnet which drew the
spectators was the appeal cases of James
Mcbride and Marks & Co., who were fined
in police court by Mayor McDonough on
charges Of keeping their barrooms open on
the Sabbath.
The liquor men of the city we're largely
represented, and among them were several
OF those who paid similar sums to that
which Mr.. Mcbride appealed from paying
and on similar charges.
Ex-senator duBignon, counsel for Nc
Bride, and R. R. Richards. Esq, counsel
for Marks 81 Co., occupied seats at the
press table, and had several large volumes
of Georgia Reports In front of them, from
the pages of which peeped little bits of
white paper showing that the attorneys had
come prepared with authorities to back
up the appeals which they had taken from
the mayors action. The witnesses for both
sides were present, among them about half
a dozen policemen.
The crowd waited patiently through the
transaction Of the routine business of coun.
Gil. but when Clerk of Council
Rebarer announced the two ap-
peals, at s10:40 O'clock, everybody was
all attention and many leaned forward
as il they were expecting to see startling
sensation sprung. Tney were doomed to
disappointment, however, and plainly
showed it when Alderman Carson said that
he had been requested by the ATTORNEYS, on
account of the lateness of the hour, to have
the cases continued for trial to an adjourned
meeting. He moved that the trials ne post
poned until next Wednesday afternoon at
4 O'Clock. This was objected to by Alder.

No clothing establishment in the state of
Georgia will surpass in general excellence

years this firm has become prominent in

TEE WIDOWS MUST WAIT.
More Applicants for Pensions Than
Can be Paid

More Applicants for Pensions Than
Can be Paid.
The pensions for the widows Of confed-
crate soldiers will not be paid for some
time yet
The reason is that there are more appli-
cations for pensions than there is money to
pay them with.
1t seems that there will be over 4 ZOO APP
plications. The act provides for the pay
ment OF 500 to each widow, and appropri-
ates only 100000 for that purpose
To pay the four thousand 800 each would
require 100000.
It is evident, therefore, that under the
present state of affairs all of the applicants
cannot be paid.
Therefore the governor has issued the
following order in regard to the matter:
WHEREAS, The act of the recent general as
sembly, providing pensions for the widows of
confederate soldiers, stipulates that each widow,
entitled under its provisions, shall receive $780,
and the general appropriation act sets apart
$50, 600 to cover this expenditure;
AND WHEREAS. There Is now official informa-
ton in this department., furnished by the ordi-
naries Of the several coulties, making the num-
Der Of applicants more than four thousand;
AND WHEREAS, 10 will be impossible under the
existing circumstances to establish any rules
by which the money appropriated may be Judi
ciously and properly distributed until ali the
applications shall be filed in this office and passed
upon under the provisions Of the law. 1t is
therefore
Ordered, That payments of pensions to the
widows OF confederate soldiers will not begin
until ample time has been given to receive and
pass upon all applications. of this due notice
will be given through the papers and the ordi-
nartes OF the several counties. The ordinares
are respectfully instructed to explain the pro-
visions OF this order and instruct every appli-
cant TO send her proofs to this department and
AYR notice OF readiness to begin the payments
By the governor. w. j. NORTHERN

This order will be read with much in
forest all over Georgia.
As soon as the question can be settled as
to the correct distribution of the money it
will be paid out

KILLsD By A RUNAWAY.
Little Alonzo Reyes Run Over an
Fatally Wounded.


Fatally Wounded.
A runaway accident, resulting in the
death Of Alonzo Reyes, the 3-year-old soc
Of Alonzo J. Reyes, a well-known engineer
Of the Central railroad, occurred yesterday
shortly after u O'Clock at Duffy and Lin
coin streets
Nicholas Lan9's grocery wagon was
standing in front of the Reyes residence, at
Duffy lane and Lincoln street, while the
colored driver was taking an order. Some
thing frightened the horse and the animal
started on mad gallop northward
At the next street corner, playing on the
curbstone, was the little Reyes boy, Genie
Corbett and frankie Bolan. To the horror
Of the onlookers. and before any of them
could interfere, the horse dashed among the
children. planting his forefoot souarely on
the breast of the Reyes child and knocking
the other child down.
The little boy was thrown directly under
the wheels Of the wagon, two Of which
passed across his breast. URe whsel passed
across Frankie Bolan's shoulder, not seri-
ously injuring her, however, and the ottEsF
child miraculously escaped injury.
number Of people rushed to the scene
and picked up both children and carried
them to their homes. DIR. Lincoln, who
was in the neighborhood, responded as
quickly as possible. As soon as he
looked at the little boy the physician
said nothing could be done to save his
life. as the heavy wheels and horses foot
had crushed the heart and other organs Of
the body. The child was unconscious and
almost pulseless for over an hour, but after
ward regained his senses He suffered 80
much pain. however, that DIR. Lincoln was
compelled TO inject morphine TO ease his
sufferings. The child lived until z o'clock
last night, when death came to his relief.
Mr.. Reyes was in Macon when the acct
dent occurred, and will not arrive home
until this morning Little Alonzo was al
unusually bright and manly little fellow,
and his death is a terrible blow to his
parents.
After the accident the horse continued on
his wild run along the sidewalk, tearing up
tree boxes, and finally made a complete
wreck OF the wagon. Several other children
and grown people as well had narrow es-
capes from being injured by the runaway.

a TRIP THROUGH GERMANY.

Mr.. @. E. Bottoms Lecture on Reunited
Germany and Heroic Louise.
Mr.. c. E. Bolton delighted as large an
audience last night at the Young Mems
Christian Association hall as could have
been expected on so rainy night.
Mr. Bolton is a charming lecturer and his
lecture on Reunited Germany and Heroic
Louise is one of the most entertaining OF
his travel series. In 1t he carries his audi
ence from Ostend across to Cologne, the
famous cathedral city, up the Rhine,
with its beautiful and historic
scenery, to Frankfort, Heidelberg, Stuff
CART, Munich, Dresden, Berlin and Potts
dam, stopping long enough toglve his audi.
ence the opportunity Of visiting those points
which most interest the traveller, the
churches, galleries, palaces and monuments
His descriptions and his anecdotes are not
less interesting than the illustrations, which
are superb.
In his sketches of royalty Mr.. Bolton is
most interesting. His word-pictures and his
illustration on canvass of the Empress Fred
erick, Moltke. the Crown Prince Frederick
William, Bismarck and Emperor William
were charming. His presentation of the
virtues Of Heroic Louise, mother of EN-
peror William, and of her vast influence In
molding the destinies Of mighty empire,
is lofty tribute to noble character.
The lecture throughout was delightfully."-
entertaining. Mr.. Bottoms pictures have
been collected with great caro-, and they far
surpass any that have recently been seen in
Savannah. The lecturer was introduced by
AR. Frank Weldon with a graceful refer
ence to his ability and the subject Of the
lecture
Tonight Mr.. Bolton will lecture on "The
Lands of the Midnight Sun, or the Top OF
the Globe" Those who heard him last
night will not fail TO attend tonight, and
Mr.. Bolton may be assured big audience.

THE ADVANCE AGAIN DISABLED
The Steamer Collides With the Port
Royal Bridge Near Augusta,

The Steamer Collides With the Port
Royal Bridge Near Augusta.
The steamer Advance struck the Port
Royal bridge a short distance below
Augusta on the down trip day before yes
terday and was disabled so that she had to
return to Augusta and lay up for repairs
She is expected to arrive in Savannah to-
morrow.
The Chronicle says: The Advance left
for Savannah about 4:S0 o'clock. When she
reached the Port Royal bridge high wind
was blowing, and the vessel failed to go
through the draw. When about half way
through the hog chain caught on the draw,
throwing the boat against one of the pillars
The hog chain was carried away and part
of the guard torn off, with several other
minor damages.
On account of the injury the boat was
forced to come back to the city for repairs.
The captain claims that the accident was
not caused by the fault of the crew Of the
Advance. He says the man in charge Of
the draw, on account Of the wind, was not
able to hold it in position, and when the
boat was half way through the draw swung
around, catching the hog chain, which drove
the boat against one OF the piers with the
above result.

no dress, however handsome, can satisfy
an eye that appreciates all the elements of
beauty. There are not too many persons in
the company, which is another advantage,

1.-THE Milk in the Cocoanut. ="

There is considerable comment and IN
warranted excitement among some dealers,
who have attempted TO convey the impress
sion that the great reduction in the price of
sugar is due to their generous endeavors and
enterprise. while the truth is that after
April l, 1891, the duty on sugar is reduced
and consequently the price to the consumer
is lessened. The Mutual Trading Company,
corner Whitaker and State street, and op-
posite postoffioe, being alive to the interests
of their customers, are prepared to sell
sugar as cheap as any other house in the
land, and solicit their valuable patronage
at the reduced rates. I'D.
