The little colored boy Baker. who was
thrown under car on the Electric railway
line on Gwinnett street by a companion
Tuesday afternoon and received probably
fatal injuries, was still alive last night,
though not expected to live through the
night. The boys head and breast were
mangled as to be almost unacceptable,
but he seems to live in defiance of the laws
of nature. The boy who is responsible for
his condition has not yet been caught.
Policeman 8. D. Horton, who was ar
rested day before yesterday for assaulting
Peddler Sutky, says the warrant upon
which he was arrested was for assault in
stead of assault with intent to murder He
struck Sutky, he said, with light stick or
switch instead of a policeman's club. Sutky,
he said, called at house where he was
executing a distress warrant against one
of his tenants and began to interfere with
with Horizons affairs. Words passed and
he struck Sutkv.
The horse attached to Krouskoff's delivery
wagon ran away on Bull street last night.
In trying to make a sudden turn into ork
street, the horse slipped on the asphalt
pavement and fell, turning the wagon over
and throwing two negroes who were IN it
across the pavement. The negroes were
badly frightened. but not hurt. Several
bystanders assisted in unhitching thehorse,
and the moment he felt himself loose he
dashed down York street, and ran for sew
eral blocks before being caught. The
wagon was slightly damaged. The affair
created considerable excitement, and many
people had narrow escapes from being run
over.

RAIL AND CROSsTIE.

The Macon Telegraph says of Macon's re-
Gently elected member of the Central rail-
road directory: 1.-THE election of S. K.
Jaques of Macon as one Of the directors OF
the Central railroad was timely, we'll aud
prominently proper and judicious. Mr..
Jaques is one Of the largest, most successful
wholesale grocery merchants in the state.
He is most excellent business man, cons
servative and thoroughly qualified in every
respect for the faithful and efficient dis
charge of the duties of the office to which
he has been elected. We have frequently
presented Macon's claim to repre-
sentation on the board of directors
of the Central railroad, and we are glad
that they have at last been recognized.
Under the Wadley and Raoul regime Ma
con always had two directors on the board
but after the Richmond and Danville and
Terminal people came in control of the road
they declined to elect any one from Macon
director. There is no city in the state of
more Importance to the Central road. Ma
con has always given it large patronage. 1t
is in the center of toe system, and the Cen.
tral has large andSvaluable properties. The
city deserved the recognition that was ac
corded to it in the election Of Mr.. Jaques at
the meeting of the stockholders In Savan-
nah.

CHANGING THE BUoYs.
The Substitution OF spars for Cans
Obstructs Navigation.

The Substitution OF spars for Cans
Obstructs Navigation.
1t has always been the supposition that
| the governments desire is TO increase and
make efficient the safeguards OF harbors to
aid shipping and commerce, but the action
of the light house board in changing the
system Of buoys in Savannah harbor seems
to indicate, according to the views of sea-
going men, that retrograde rather than
progressive movement has set in. Recently
the two large can buoys at Tybee knoll, one
of the most important points In the barbor,
were removed and in their stead have been
put narrow spar buoys.
The outside can buoy marked the cham
mel from the shoal water and was easily dis
cernible TO vessels carrying search lights,
and also easily disoernible on ordinary
nights to vessels sailing without search
lights. Things have entirely changed since
the introduction OF the spar buoy. 1t is
bard to find the buoy even with search
lights, and then it looks as much like an old
log or piece of wreck as a buoy.
To vessel not equipped with the search
light the buoy is invisible at night, ana if
these vessels attempt to come up the river
there is as much chance OF their getting
into shoal water as into the channel. They
have to take chances and guess at the course
or else remain at Tybee until daylight.
Aho COMPARISON DebW6ou VIC BIG VI tDo
can buoy and the spar buoy is practically
that of house alongside a telegraph pole.
This explains the disadvantage OF the
change In brief terms. The captains Of the
Ocean Steamship Company are kicking
hard against the change. and are backed by
the pilots, who say it is a step backward
instead Of forward. The largest kind of a
buoy is necessary at the knoll, where YES
sells turn to get into the channel and the
neutrality-suspicious. Of the light house board in
removing the useful can buoy and replacing
it with the useless spar buoy ia the subject
Of most unfavorable comment among river
men generally.
In former years it was the practice Of the
board to confer with steamship men and
pilots before making any changes in the
buoy system of a harbor, but in the present
| instance the interests of those most directly
interested seems TO have been entirely ig
nored. The light house board, shipping
men think, should be called upon for an ex-
PLANTATION of why the change has been made,
and they ought also to be asked to undo the
mischief it has done by putting back the
can buoy,

Not the First Trace to Lead to Lee
Daniels Discovery
The disappearance Of R. E. L. Daniel Is as
much a mystery as it was the day he disap-
peared. No clew has been obtained to give
his friends any hope of his discovery.
There was a rumor that he had been seen
at Jesup. and that he had gone from there
to Sterling, near Brunswick, where he left
the train and started for Darien. The clew
was followed. but the man supposed to be
Mr.. Daniel, although bearing a close resem-
blance to him, proved to be another man.
Ii was thought he might have gone north
by steamer and the steamers were watched
on their arrival In New York. but no clew
was obtained there. Detectives have been
put TO work on the case and kilograms have
been sent out wherever it was thought he
might go.
Mr.. Daniel was member OF the Order OF
Elks and they have joined in the effort 10
discover his whereabouts.
The case is a singular one. From the time
Mr.. Daniel was last seen at the Guards club
rooms last Wednesday night not the slight
est information has been obtained where or
how he disappeared.

TIE POLICE TELEGRAPH MIXED.

The Patrolmen Make a Middle OF
Sending In Their Reports.
The Gamewell police telegraph system
wasn't working yesterday or last night, be-
cause Of the grand tumble made of it the
night before, when it was first put in opera
ton. The policemen were instructed to
send in their reports by wire every time
they reached box on their beat, and the
result was that dozens upon dozens of
alarms were pulled at one time, making q
middle OF things generally.
Chief Green gave orders TO suspend the
operation OF the system until a regular time
card for sending in reports for each circuit
| can be arranged. This will be ready TO-
day. and no more confusion will result.
The police had lively time in working
the alarms the first night. Many OF them
had to Ugh. matches to guide themselves
| In what they were doing, and even then
they mixed things In the majority Of
| cases they managed to call the telephone
instead Of reporting, and annoyed the SER
geants on duty considerably. After few
days, however, the policemen will become
familiarized with the system, and things
| will move along smoothly.
Under the new arrangement policemen
will be compelled to pay strict attention to
| their beats They can't take quiet nap
| between the visits OF the sergeants as has
been done many times in the past. For in~
stance, on beat where there are
| five boxes the policeman must send in five
| reports, and he is given q regular time al
| lowance to make each post. II he fails TO
make the report within the specified time
next morning he will have an opportunity
of explaining what he was doing In the
meanwhile. There is no good for the POI
liceman TO try to dodge by saving he re-
ported, because il he did the tape would
show it, and the tape never lies.
| The police office has the appearance of q
bank or counting room. A large wire rail-
ing has been erected in front of the desk
and operating table ard the officer on duty
receives charges against the prisoner
through a little window at the corner.
