THE SUNDAY FUNERALS.

Not Likely to Be Any Fight Against
Them in Savannah.
A prominent minister of the city said
yesterday In discussing religious topics that
he has seen the discussion of the stand taken
against Sunday funerals by the minister's
association OF Baltimore. The objections
of the Baltimore minister's to Sunday
funerals did not proceed from any religious
grounds, but from the fact that, as most OF
the cemeteries were situated outside
the city. many people who had
no other opportunity Of obtaining
q carriage ride. crowded to the funerals for
no other purpose, and TO such On extent.
had this been carried, that it has become a
great nuisance IN the Sunday funerals.
He did not think there is likely to be anv
stand taken asains: Sunday funerals In
Savannah. The chief OBJ lection to Sunday
funerals here, he said. Is the frequent large
military displays and parades OF secret So
cleties with brass bands, which are not
suited to the sacredness OF the dAv. This
be thought Objectionable to some extent.
Another thing is that the exercises of the
secret societies after the regular religious
services have been concluded, often draw
out the funeral services to an unreasonable
length, where there are several organize
lions to go through with their funeral
services.
This sometimes detains the mourners and
members of the family great length OF
time at the grave In a manner very trying
to them.
"ln other cities where l have been" he
said, lit is the custom for the family of the
deceased to leave as soon as the religious
services are completed aad not wait until
the last shovelful Of earth is thrown upon
the grave, as is the lstom here. This [
should think is much less TRYING to them. u

NEW STEAM ENGINE.
A Satisfactory Test OF Its Workings
IN the Morning News Engine Room.

a Satisfactory Test OF Its Workings
IN the Morning News Engine Room.
A test Of the Brosius' rotary engine was
made yesterday morniug in the engine room
Of the MORNING NEWS. 1t was demon-
stratsd that the results worked for had been
obtained and a perfect rotary engine had
been produced The test was but a con-
ti0uation and repetition OF former tests
made IN this city and at northern machine
works.
The engines were built in the north. The
folio wing opinions are taken from the
builders letters: Ave consi.er that In this
70 ary engine the Introduction OF steam t.
the pistOns Is under as favorable conditions
as IN the reclprOcating engine, with the
following advantages over the latter: No
head csnters. utilizing the power required
to overcome the momentum aud inertia OF
the reciprocating parts and the reduced
friction, so that we can safely estimate %
TO 30 per cent. &c )nOmy over the recipro-
eating engines, with at least corresponding
reduction in first cost"
From another builder: "The engine built
at our works for Mr.. BFOsius Is a total de-
parture from all other rotary engines and
Is most compact and powerful machAne.
It is the only rotary engine, 70 our kuowl-
edge, where a cutoff is effectually applied,
and any CUTOFF may be adapted to it. The
stsam Is confined without leakage, and the
loss incident to the clearance OF a reciproc-
ating engine is avoided From the nature
Of the mechanical principles involved thsre
must be an economy over any other class OF
engines, aud we are confident OF the full
SUCCESS of the machine"
The engine is adapted TO all purposes
where steam is used for power, being spe-
cially advantageous for marine uses, loco
motives and electrical work, because of its
compactness, saving over aay other engines
about 70 per cent. in space and 81 per cent.
in weight, and being perfectly balanced in
itself. 1t avoids costly and heavy founda-
lions, besides largely economizing in fuel
and steam.
Mr.. S. @. Brosius comes from family OF
great inventors. His skill III the apDllca-
ton OF steam IN dynamics is we'll known, he
having been associated for some time with
Capt. .. NJ. Carter in the corps OF United
States engineers.

INJURED BY a BELT CAR.

a Horseback Rider Thrown From His
Horse and His Collar Bone Broken.
A man named Strickland, living in East
Savannah. was knocked of his horse by
Belt Line car No. 8. on Bay street near the
corner of Jefferson, yesterday morning and
was seriously injured. According to the
statements of ISLANDERS who saw the af-
fair, the accident was entirely the result of
carelessness on the part OF the motorman
OF the car.
Strickland was riding down Bay street on
horseback. In front of the Guckenheimer
corner pile of lumber was lying between
the sidewalk and the street car track. A
truck coming down the street on that side
passed between the lumber pile aud the
track crowding Strickland aud his horse
upon the track. Just then cur No. 9 came
along. Strickland attempted to spur his
horse from the track, but was too late. The
car struck the horse in the rear, knocking
him several yards and dropping Strickland
almost under the car wheels.
The back of his head struck the car max
ing severe wound, and his collar-bone was
broken either by striking the car or by the
fall upon the cobble stones The motor man,
it was claimed did not attempt to check
the car until after the collision. He then
stopped.
otrIckldnu seemed Dadly hurt, but after
resting some time managed to make his
way t. drug store, where his wounds were
dressed.
Assistant Superintendent Dow of the Belt
Line said the fault was entirely that Of
Strickland, and not Of the motor men.
Stri 'kland. he said, was riding down JEFF
ferson street to Bay, and his horse took
fright at tho car and threw his rider. The
accident, Supt. Dow says, is not
ohargeable to any carelessness or negligence
on the part Of the Belt Line.
