A BIG CAMPAIGN MEETING.

The County Executive Committee Ar
ranging for Grand Rally.
The democratic county executive COM
mittee met last night for the consideration
OF measures for the conduct of the cam
paign from now on until the election. There
were few absentees and the situation was
thoroughly canvassed.
The committee was somewhat disap-
pointed at the financial outlook. The sub
committee appointed to look after this very
essential feature of a political campaign,
with regret, had to report that its laborf
had not been glorious success. NsVerthe.
less the committee appointed another sub
committee 10 which is intrusted the duty OF
carrying out the plans for monster demo
cratic meeting the night before the election.
Mr.. Waring Russell was made chairman of
this committee, the other two members to
be appointed later.
At the proposed meeting Congressman
Lester will speak. It is also proposed that
one of the electors at large be requested to
speak, and the district elector will also he
invited IL is probable that some other
prominent gentlemen will also participate
in the speaking
The committee, of which Mr.. Russell Is
chairman, was instructed to carry out the
programme outlined and get the money for
the expenses by any plan they may devise.

AN UNwELCoMs VISITOR.

A Huge Wild Cat Captured IN the
Heart OF the City.
Strange as it may seem, monster wild
cat was captured night before last right in
the heart Of the city. Where it came from
is a question that no one can solve. 1t was
caught in the havloft of Younglove & Good
mans stable A little boy who works about
| the premises went into the hayloft to hunt
! chicken eggs He had found some five or
six and was hunting more when suddenly
there sprang up before him with terrible
growl a huge wild animal. The little fell
lows hair fairly stood on his head and he
took no time in making himself exceedingly
scarce, the fact that be dropped aud broke
most Of his eggs giving him no concern
whatever.
Some Of the men hearing the boys shouts
made an investigation, but they didn't re-
main long either, being unprepartd for the
angry reception given them. They finally
planned to capture tho animal and sue
ceeded IN getting an improvised lasso over
his head. The beast fought desperately but
was finally subdued and Gagged.
Its body measure Is three feet, and 1t
looks like q young tiger. 1t was at first
thought-that 1t had escaped from the circus,
but the circus people said 1t was not
theirs. Nobody can offer any satisfactory
explanation Of where it came from or how
it got into the city.
There is some talk Of getting up fight
between the cat and dog, and If ANYBODY
has dog he doesn't care particularly about
be can get up a match. The animal In its
cage attracted the attention Of many passers
by yesterday. The captain of British
steamship is negotiating for its purchase K
take it to Liverpool with him.

THE WAY IT WAS Settled

how GsorRis's Representative to the
worlds Fair Opening Was Chosen.
A good deal Of interest was taken In
savannah In the choice Of representative
from Georgia to the worlds fair opening.
Miss jackson Of Atlanta very gracefully
represented the state.
The committee on ceremonies plaead the
responsibility of selection upon Georgia,s
commissioners. Now it is all over, IL will
De Interesting to know how the oemmis-
steners stood. Col. WAY was for ancestry
aud youthful beauty. Gen. MeLaws advo-
catto maternal charms and matronly dig
nlty. Being unable to agree upon choice they
reIsrred the matter TO the lady managers
Mrs. Charles n. Olmstead and Mrs. W. H
Eeleon, who made short work of It. Mrs.
Olmstead represented Col. Ways choice
Miss Josephine Jones of Savannah, while
Mrs. FELTON, represented Gen. MeLaws, bv adj.
vocatlng the claims Of beautiful matron,
MIS-. Martha johnson of Macon. Both
ladies were obdurate. Mrs. OImstead
finally said: "If Mira. Fulton would name
a young girl instead Of g natren / would
acquissce aud withdraw Mrs. Jones' name 4"
Mrs. Felton's argument was streng for
an appointment from Upper Georgia as Sa-
vannah had four other appointments to the
worlds fair, and she thought this fact alone
should deter Miss jones So the die was
cast for Miss CorneliA jackson of Atlanta.
The worlds fair committee, which had
received from Col. Way a photograph
OF Miss Jones, had grown accustomed to the
thought that she was to be the honorsd
daughter from Georgia, and they gallan:ly
determined TO show their appreciation Of
her charms by sending her a special invita-
ton to be present at the ceremonies. 1t was
distinction to be proud of, as it was un-
asked. Miss Jones is a descendant OF the

COTTON GETTING A MOVE.
The Receipts Increasing and Likely to
Increase Largely From Now On.

The Receipts Increasing and Likely to
Increase Largely From Now On.
For the frst time this season Savannsh's
cotton receipts were told by five figures yes
terday. The days receipts were Il, 1893 bales.
The corresponding days receipts last yesr
were 4,4s4 bales. The receipts so far this
week, exclusive of sea island. however, are
$50 bales behind the corresponding period OF
a year ago.
Savannah's receipts are increasing more
rapidly than those OF any other port except
New Orleans, and the indications now are
that they will continue to increase more
rapidly from now.
In this connection 1t is interesting 10 note
the last weekly statement OF the New
Orleans exchange, which demonstrated that
up to date the marketing Of the crop shows
q shrinkege compared With the sans num-
Der OF days last season Of 135, pa bales, or,
in other words, the amount of the crop
which had come into sight at this time last
year was 2,l9l, 3S7 bales, as compared with
,456, l63 bales marketed during the same
time this season. The statement also shows
that during last week the movement of the
crop 60 market has fallen behind the same
week last year TO the extent of 10000 bales.
The shrinkage. compared with last year,
has been shown weekly since the season
commenced, but according to the New Or
AcAue report, lle pAsL week Was pEDbAolJ
the severest shrinksge Of all, the more par
ticularly as many had predicted that the
crop would begin to move moro rapidly.
The daily receipts have shown a shrinkage
compared with the same days last year
practically without. a siGgle exception. 1t
! is not, therefore, surprising that with such
evidence accommodating daily there should
have developed greater confidence 10 small
crop figures There have been some so bold
as to predict a crop Of no more than 7,000,~
! 600 bales, but the great preponderance of
| opinions favors 1880 bales as the prob
| able size Of the yield.
| 1t must be admitted that no previous sea-
son has shown a more rational connection
between he actual crop movement and the
estimates Of acreage and condition. Taking
the average Of the estimates of acre-
age and allowing for the influence
on the yield Of the reduced use
of fertilizers, as well as due weight
TO the Official reports of conditions from
month to month. crop OF froIn 1000, 900 TO
7,250,OO0 bales would seem a reasonable
figure for the crop. 1t must be admitted
that the deliveries Of the crop from week to
week closely corroborate the estimates
based on mere acreage and condition re-
ports; hence it is not surprising that the
opinions favoring a crop no larger than
7,25O,OO should be daily gaining strength.

NO APPREHENSION FELT.
No apprehension is felt for the safety Of
any of these steamers. The vessels likely to
suffer most from the storm are the sailing
vessels. A number of schooners are ready
to sail now but will remain in port until the
weather subsidies.
The sweep of the storm brought drop IN
temperature nearly to the frost point on the

sissippi valley. The indications are that it
will be equally as cold to-day as it was yes
