MUST LIVE UP TO THE RULES.

Georgia Catholics Don't Get the Fa-
vors Others Do.
The Lenten regulations published in yes
terday's MORNING NEWS were read at the
masses In all Of the Catholic churches Of the
city yesterday.
Although Pope Leo granted the bishops
the power to dispense with the regu-
lar observance of Lent wherever
IL should be deemed expedient
on account of the prevalence
of the grip Bishop Becker decided it un-
necessary to make use OF the faculty given
him by Rome, and therefore the observance
Of the Lenten period will be as strict as
ever in the diocese Of Georgia.
Bishop Northrop Of the South Carolina
diocese, however, has granted the dispensa-
tion allowed by the pope through crcu-
lar to the Roman Catholics Of the state. He
dispenses the faithful of his diocese from
fasting and abstinence on all the days of
Lent except Fridays. Friday will remain a
day Of abstinence for all and of fasting
also for those who are not exempt by rea~
son OF age. PHYSICAL condition or exhaust

SOME oBEYBD, SOME DIDN'T.

No Docket Cases of Violations of the
Blue Laws Yesterday,
The state Sunday law was vigorously OBJ
served yesterday among the barber shops,
fruit stands and some of the drug stores.
Some of the news stands carried on business
as usual, while others obeyed the old blue
laws. The green groceries were closed, and
any one who depended upon getting meat
yesterday was disappointed.
No cases were docketed at the barracks.
The action Of the juries in the city court
in the cases Of the fruit dealers is sufficient
evidence that Savannahlaus are against the
strict enforcement OF the blue laws, and
they will likely go back to the sleep they
enjoyed for many years, and from which
they were almost ruthlessly awakened a few
weeks ago.

THE HIGHEST SINCE 81.

The Tides Overflow the Lowlands
Around the City.
Saturdays tide in the Savannah river was
the highest known In this vicinity since the
great storm of 1881. The water covered
the lands east Of the city in many places,
but no damage was done.
The water was deepest upon the Lewton
lands, and Alderman Carson, chairman of
the drainage committee of council, i'm
mediately put the dry culture force to work
to turn tbeawater of. This prompt action
no doubt prevented what would most likely
have otherwise resulted in serious damage,
and saved considerable money to the city.

dated Its Indebtedness into bond issue of
Sl60, 100000, all the world wondered. But
now one plan for reorganizing the Rich
mond aud West Point Terminal contem-
plates an issue of $4,000 900 in securities
OF the new company, and the denl of the
coal companies with a combined capitalize
ton Of S600.000,000 is matter of current
talk. This tendency, however, is not con-
fined to railway companies but characterizes
all financial interests. This is merely the
day of large things.
