Cutting ARRAY.

A Saturday Night Row Ends in a
Cutting ARRAY.
Bob Winters, a young white man, was
severely cut IN the back by a man named
Joe Baker Saturday night on Broughton
street, near West Broad.
According to Winters story Of the affair
he was set upon by Baker and another man
ard beaten and cut without cause The
party hsd come out of Steinmans saloon. on
West Broad street, he says when some
quarrel arose about "A game of cards
that Baker proposed TO play him.
Baker aud the other man both set upon him
and commenced beating him. He ran into
Kiley's saloon at West Broad and BRYAN
streets 20 escape them. and was ordered out
He ran across to Duke's drug store on the
opposite side Of the street, where he re-
manned for some minutes. Thinking his
assailents had gone he went down to the
furnishing store adjoining Bowden's stables
on Broughton street to make some pur-
chase.
While he was in the store Baker and
the other man came in and renewed
the difficulty. They struck him several
times and he fought them back While he
had his back turned to Baker fighting the
other party, he felt something strike HIM in
the back, but did not know that be was
cut.
Winters ran behind the counter to
escape bis assailants, who then left. He re-
manned while in the store and then went
TO the drug store where his wounds were
dressed. He then walked TO his boarding
house at West Broad and st. Julian streets
and went to bed. His wounds bled pro-
fusely and some hours afterward, his
brother, j. J. Winters, who is night
nurse at the Savannah hosipiteI.
called the police ambulance and had him
removed to the hospital where his wounds
were redressed again Icy DIR. Colding.
The wounds are two stabs in the left side
OF the back below the heart. They were
evidently made with pocket-knife. and n
the knife had been larger one they would
have been fatal. AS it is Winters will prob
ably be out in few days
The police are on the lookout for Baker
and his companion.

THE CIrY's DRY CULTURE.
Inspector Dssvergers' Report Upon II
70 the Sanitary Association.

inspector O9SVergerS Report Upon ~
TO the Sanitary Association.
Inspector Desvergers Of the Citizens Sani-
tary Association IN his report, 70 the com
mittee on public health OF the association,
says that the attention now being bestowed
upon the drains around the city indicates
that the mantle Of the late chairman Of the
committee in council on drainage has fallen
upon a worthy successor. He says, how
ever, that though much good work was
done upon the city drains last year, 1t was
only toward and not competitive OF sys>
tenn.
Bradley creek, which is the main outlet
for the drainage of the low lands on the east
Of the city, the inspect Or says Is now in al
unsanitary condition. The lower part Of it
is used as a timber basin, and in addition to
large number of timber logs collected in
it there is a collection of drift wood, trash
and mud, which effects almost complete OBJ
struction Of the creek. The relations which
exist between the city, as the purchaser Of
the right Co enforce dry culture of the lands
east of the city aud as lessee of the Lawton
plantation, and the owners of the whRrves
and adjacent lands and its sublessees,
are so complicated that the inspector finds
1t difficult TO determine who is responsible
for the unsanitary condition Of the creek.
1t is but reasonable to suppose, he says, that
in the purchase by the city Of the right to
enforce dry culture Of these lands, some
provision was made for the maintaining Of
proper conditions ia both the natural and
the artificial drains connected with this
system of drainage, and that there is culpable
neglect on the part Of some one in the mat
ter, or Bradley creek would not have so long
remained in condition which impairs the
entire drainage system for which IL is an
outlet.
The inspector says, also, that the sight of
herds OF cattle and droves of horses past
ured on lands purchased or leased by the
city, in order TO secure sanitary conditions
in reference to them, suggests the query as
to whether the city authorities in giving
titles to subdivisions of the lands pur-
chased or leases to those sublet, provided for
the Introduction Of such uses Of the land as
the pasturing Of cattle or horses upon them.
He says. also, that q sight OF the excava-
tions and pits by which the high lands of
the Springfield plantation have been COM
yer cd by brickmakers into malarial sinks,
and is still being so converted, suggests the
query as to whether there is no condition
in the conveyances made by the city to the
! purchasers Of the subdivisions Of the
Springfield plantation, which would pre-
vent the purchasers from converting the
high lands into sinks.

THE RIVER AND HAaBoR.

Necessity is the mother of invention. 4"
Capt. Clark actually cut hole in the bot
tom Of his schooner and sank the vessel to
save her. The captain is typical yankee.
He loaded his schooner at Greenpoint. L.
l., with bricks, and set sail for Cold Spring.
He was in the sound off Mount Misery in
gale. He was making leeway and was in
danger of being dashed on the rocks. BY "a
desperate effort he monaged to work his
vessel around the end IF the break water
and started to go over the bar The
vessel had taken in so much water as to
be almost unmanageable and the captain
DECIDED that If he let the vessel go up into
the deep water of the bay she would be lost
or badly damaged, so slipping into tine hold
with few quick blows he forced hole in
the bottom of the vessel, allowing her to fill
rapidly. She settled down on the shallow
bar, where her cargo of bricks held her
firmly until the gale subsidized. Then Clark
patched q hole in the vessel, pumped ont
the water, tioated her Off and completed
his voyage.

Henry Niles for the Killing of Adam
Berrien at Deptford.

Henry Niles for the Killing of Adam
Berrien at Deptford.
Henry Niles is to be tried tomorrow for
the killing of Adam Berrien at Deptford
several weeks ago. 1t is understood that
Niles will endeavor to prove an alibi and
that witnesses will be produced who will
swear that it was not he that did the kill
ing, but his cousin, Robert Niles, who is
also held in the jail as a chief witness in
the case.
1t is SAID that some of the witnesses who
testified at the coroner's inquest that Henry
Niles did the killing will now swear it was
Robert Niles. The solicitor general is con-
tident, however. that the right man is being
prosecuted fo- the crime.
The change Of base Of some of the wit
nesses is believed to be due to luminosity
against Robert Niles, who had warrants
issued against a number of those who were
at the party at his home on the night of the
killing on the charge of rioting.
Robert Niles father, 1t is also said, is en- =
deavoring to influence witnesses to swear
that it was Henry Niles, and not his son,
that did the killing.

For many years there has been gradual
increase in the demand for the best beef in
this market.

During the past season there has been
more choice selections of beef ia this city

fact that
Logan did it.
In the display Of mutton, it is acknowl-

finest pork in the country constantly

"Logan's veal" is patent household phrase
which delights the cook everywhere.
There is no necessity to call attention to
the large and excellent line OF western
turkeys, ducks ana geese which arrives to
Logan daily.
The largely increased trade during the
holidays has demonstrated how the public

Logan to give them the finest line of these

A TEXT OF TWO WORDS.
REV. T. V. BAiDY AT THE FIRST
BAPTIST CaURCa.

An Unique Sermon From the Shortest
Verse in the B .ble-Christ Not a Man
of Tears, Yet There Is No Record of
His Having Laughed - The Sympa-
thetic Nature Of the Savior Described.
Rev. E. Y. Badly Of Cuthbert preached
at the Baptist church yesterday morning
and last night His text at the morning
sermon was. Jesus wept,n John xi. 81. He
said it was his intention to show that Jesus
was a man OF tears.
The Bible nowhere says that Jesus
laughed or that he smiled, still it does not
convey the impression that ne was a
man of gloom. constantly de-
pressed and cast down with the
weight of the work upon him. The preacher
did not believe this TO be the case, nor did
be believe ia the kind Of religion that always
went about with a long face and was
always mourning and grooming over every
thing in life.
The idea the text conveyed to him, he
said, was the sympathy shown by Christ in
the suferings Of those around him, the ex-
hibition Of bis sympathetic nature. A man
of like passions with US, he shared in the
joys and sorrows Of those around him. Mr..
Baldyis discourse upon the sympathetic
nature OF CDTlsL WIS q very Interesting one.

its vacant pestorate the committee says is
mistake, and the officers and members of the
church are at a loss to know how the report

DIR. Landrum Is the son OF Rev. Sylvanus
Landrum, who filed the pulpit of the First
Baptist church during the war and for
some time aiterward. He was greatly be-
loved by his congregation, and was one of
the most noted pastors of the city.
DIR. W. w. Landrum is pastor of the Sec
ond Baptist church OF Richmond and has a
most hourishing congregation there. He
has done splendid work. and there is little
probability Of his removing elsewhere ct

HURRIrZs MANY PROMISES.
His Tale OF Woe Concerning H.s MIS-
fortunes.

David Hurritz. the young man who ran
away from Savannah last week, leaving his
wife aud children. without any visible means
of support, to shift for themselves, and
his creditors without anything visi-
bic 70 realize on, is plausible
young fellow. His letter 70 the
MORNING News is an ingenious affair.
Hurritz must have exceptional business
ability. He says:
81 went 70 work and done business in the
average of $500 per month. l did not have
any money to start with, but / had good
friends who loaned me money
to start on. could get $1,000

but when had dollar in my pocket any
man could share iJ with me aud that was
my ruiuatiOn. / stood good for people and
had to borrow money from my friends TO
pay these obligations, and even had 70 bor-
row from the loan association. W here I
used to do business before people liked me,
even made me president OF the benevolent
society. They even had me president for
two terms. l gave a ball last March for
the purpose of the orphan asylum In At
lanta, and was presented vita the finest
gold cane in the city. Afterward every
thing went back on me. lost some days
as high as $50 in business; then
sbdILou Illus Du5lness ia DrOuKubOu
street. lost a couple of hundred dollars in
two months. never told my friends,
because | did not want their bad feelings
because l los. their money. Not even my
wife knew it,"
Hurritz goes on for nearly a dozen pages
to explain his misfOrtunes. He puts down
his creditors as follows:
M. Rosenberg. a laborer, $275; l. Gotlieb
$500, l.. Goldman $40, Altmayer a. Co.
about $3.50. B. NJ. Garfunkel about $500, L.
Bluestein about $3.50. Bluementhal Bros.
about SIS, small bills about 800, then l owe
a friend. Peter Sampson, S25."
Hurritz gave Griffin a. Seller, attorneys
for the loan and collection association, a
lien on the furniture in his house, on st.
Julian street, unknown to his wife. for $500,
and borrowed money aud then skipped.
Hurritz's letter is full Of promises to pay all
OF his obligations as soon as he 10 able.
What his promises are worth remains TO be
