FROF. FosrER,s NOVEMBER.
He Predicts It Will Be a Pretty
Stormy One

He Predicts 1t Will Be a Pretty
Stormy One.
Prof Foster predicts a stormy aud cold
November. From the 18th to the Goth, he
says, will average warmer than either the
first eight days, or the last eight days Of the
month. Clearing weather may be expected
to leave the Pscific coast about the I'd or
81, crossing the continent ia about four
days The first half Of the month, he thinks,
will be more stormy than the last half
Prof. Fosters last prediction forecasted the
storm wave to cross the continent from Oct.
80 TO Nov. s. The next will be due 70 leave
the Pacific coast about the 5th, cross the
great central valleys from the 9th to the
ssh, reaching the Atlantic coast about the
9Th.
The storm center. according to Prof.
Foster, will probably take central route,
causing quite cool weather aud snow in the
northern tier of states, and, as it passes,
warm weather will occur in the southern
states south Of it. Severe frosts will follow
1t in northern aud southern ATTITUDES.
Cloudy weather will increase, and the long
periods of beautiful sunshine will become
less extended.
Real winter weather may be expected in
all the northern tier Of states, and a rear
approach TO winter in all the states along
the fortieth degree Of north latitude. But
the severest weather may be expected dur
ing tue first part of the month.

TO FAVE TO TIE PARK.

The Bull Street Paving to be Carried
to CASTOR Street.
There is no longer ary doubt about the
ssphalting Of Bull street 70 Forsyth park.
The street and lane committee is a unit on
the mater and the majority of the board of
aldermen are in favor of it. There was
little objection at first on the part of some
Ut the aldermen to doing the work this year,
because no provision had been made il the
budget, but the fact that the recent decis-
zion OF the supreme court makes all churches
and public institutions liable to street pave
ment asse sments removed this objection.
Another thing which had considerable
effect with the aldermen is the general de-
sire OF all citizens to have Savannah's hand
some rhoroughfsre asphalted. The ordi-
ppance providing for the pavement will most
hEely be offered at the next meeting OF
council, SO the work can he begun at once.
The contract with the Warren-Schart
Asphalt Company for the pavement from
Bay to Congress and State to Liberty
streets has been signed and the work OF
grading will be started next week. The
Warren-Scharf company gets the work
from Harris to CASTOR street at the same
rate as that now under contract.

THINGS TALKED ABOUT.

The Diocesan convention OF Georgia will
meet week from to-day for the third time
TO elect successor 30 the lamented Bishop
beckwith. In connection with the election
prominent Episcopalian calls attention TO
one or two vital questions which present
themselves Many contend that it is I'M
necessary to go outside of the state to make
a choice for bishop. They hold that it is
by Tar better TO select a minister within
the diocese, one familiar with its
needs and acquainted with its past
and future. They contend that such
man is needed. and that there
are any number Of ministers in the diocese
who are IN every way capable Of filing the
high office with credit to themselves and the
diocese. All agree that a wide awake,
active, aggressive man is nesded-one who
is at the same time careful and conservative Q,
ever keeping at heart the best interests OF
the church and the diocese. Neither an
extreme high churchman or all ultra low
churchman is wanted, but rather
man of broad and comprehen-
sive views who appreciates fully the
sanctity and impressiveness Of an elaborate
ritual, and yet at the same time feels that
he can worship God with the same fervor
in the humblest chapel. A true man Of God
Is needed, one whose mind thoroughly &C
cords with the teachings of his own church,
aud yet with a sympathetic touch and aid
ing hand for all who call themselves
Christians. The following is an extract
from private letter from ous OF the CON
vention delegates 70 a friend in tins city
suggested new candidate for the blshopric:
The essential requisites OF bishop are:
!. Godllness.
. Learning and ability to defend the church
and it's doctrines against all assailants.
8. A missionary spirit and devotion to mis-
sionary work.
4. Prayer-book ciurchmanshlp, neither In
Ginning to Rome nor Geneva.
8. Love and sympa by for the south and its
people.
6. Administrative ability.
| have gone carefully through the whole
clergy list for a suitable name. There are
doubtless many unknown TO me who unite all
these requisites OF those whom I do know
personally no ons possesses them in a more en-
inent degree than the Rev. j. S. Shipman, now
of Christ church, New York city. and formerly
OF Christ church, Lexington, by. Until he
took charge, Discussions prevailed in bota these
churches, To make matters worse, when he
went to Lexington, very young man,
! the civil war was raging and it's bitterness
was superadded The wonder was how this
| youth could hope to reconcile such discordart
| elements. In his frat sermon he laid down his
| programme. 1t was this: within these walls
let no sound be heard save that whica hsralded
the savior's birth, Peace on earth, good will to
men, And soon the wonder grew how by
| this young mans force Of character and exam
pie peace and good will prevailed.

tanning last summers bonuets brought
good prices. Several peddlers were on
hand laying ia miscellaneous stocks
to be disposed of TO advantage throughout
the country. When package was put up
two or three parties would bid "ten" and
up it would go to Fifteen" twenty five, y
thirty, forty "hfty," where, if it was a
small package, it would rest awhile, to be
finally knocked down at 6j or 20 cents.
Ten packages were sold under 80 cents.
Large packages usually ran up to 81 and 50,
without regard TO contents.
As purchasers were not allowed to take
packages from the Office until the sale
concluded, the prizes were not
made known during the sale. and the crowd
continued to bid without learning the re-
suit Of ite investments II any one securad
money, watches, diamonds or other valua-
bles with their purchases they kept it to
themselves.
The sale lasted from 10 TO 2 O'Clock. A
large quantity Of packages were left on
hand at the close OF the sale, which will be
