Death of This Former and Well-known Resi-

a special telegram from Savannah to The
TINES last night says; "Methven T. Freeman
died here to-day at the residence Of his uncle,
George c. Freeman"
He had been in failing health for the past
year In October last he changed his residence
from Richmond, where he had lived since 1881,
and where he was married IN January,

Their. 10 Atlanta, with the hope that
the change of climate would tend 10 restore ms
health. This hope was not realized, and ten
days ago he was brought 20 Savannah, attended
by his devoted wife, whose gentle mlnlstrauons,
and the tender care and attention of his father
and other relatives, aYailed not 10 stay the
hand of death. Since ho arrived in Savannah
he had steadily grown weaker but every day he
had been down in the living rooms with the
family, and even yesterday tins vas so. Al $50
o'clock last night he was carried up 10 bed. After
retiring, he passed the night peacefully and his
wife believed restfully until 3 o'clock when
he awoke, took some nOurIshment and
Immediately fell asleep again. lie
never spoke after that awakening
but slept until about 9 when he went into u state
of coma. which lasted until u o'clock, when he
passed away. Thus, happily his death was u
painless one.
His remains will he inferred here for the pres

The Alleged wild West show VIII Move on
Broad Street.

For number Of days wild West cowboy,
dressed in buckskin. and moccasins, has been
conducting some sort OF show III vacant

The interior of the store was hidden from
view by a heavy curtain, and a number of mys-
terious or rather doubtful pacards pasted TO
the show windows attracted large crowd dur
ing the afternoon and evenings
Fifteen cents was the admission charged. and
all that could Dee seen within was q live fox, a
coon. several photographs OF MormOns and their
wives and Sioux Indian chiefs.

policemen entered
They at once went mp to the squeaking hand

done.
Hereafter, most likely, no more blockading Of
