A SUMMER IN GERMANY.
Mr.. W. p. Schirm's Observations
the New Fatherland.

Mr.. W. p. Schirm's Observations on
the New Fatherland.
William P. 5ohirm, ESQ.,, who has been
spending the summer In Germany with his
relatives, returned yesterday. He arrived
in New York Wednesday on the steamship
Rhineland from Antwerp, Belgium, which
left that port on Sept 8. There were 800
Storage passengers booked for the Rhine
land, but the night before the steamer sailed
q telegram from New York caused the
agents TO decide not to carry any but cabin
passengers, and the emigrants were left to
come by the steamship Pennsylvania,
Mr.. Schirm was detained day In New
York by the custom house officials. He re-
ports having had q most pleasant trip. He
says there 10 little or no alarm In Europe
about the cholera, the seat Of which is so
far off that the people outside of Hamburg
and Havre not feeling as anxious about 1t
as he found them in Savannah. At Ant
werp there had been twenty deaths up to
the time he left, and there was no per-
cepnble effect upon business.
MIR. Schirm had not been in Germany for
twenty years unhl this summer. He found
the condition of the people greatly i'm
proved. There was considerable talk about
the Mckinley bill, but the effects of that
tniquitous tax had already been fairly dis
men.
Ono Of the most noticeable improve
ments was the condition of the
public roads. Where twenty years ago were
poor highways and poor people, there are
now well belt and paved roads. The public
roads have been paved with Belgian blocks
or granite for a width OF tweuty feet or so,
and where a horse could only pull 400
pounds 4, 900 can be hauled now with ease.
The result of these improvements can be
seen in the better condition of the farms
and the people, as ii means cheaper and
easier living. Mr.. Schirm said II was
hardship at first to tax the people for i'm
proving the roads. but now they are
seeing aud reapiug the benefit. He thinks
if the roads Ia Chatham county were paved
this would be the richest part Of the south
In five years. Good roads mean good
farms and good farms mean prosperous
farmers. Mr.. Schirm said he would like 10
see the principal roads In this county paved
10 the county line and then there would be
no question about the future Of Savannah.

THE MAIN GAVE WAY.
II Made q Young Lake Around
Nau WaNar yJ4~[a

It Made a Young Lake Around the
New Water Works.
The city was without water for about
half an hour last night between II and 10
o'clock. Water was turned into the new
Gwinnett street main yesterday as an ex
pertinent to see if the main could stand the
pressure, with the building Of brick abut-
ment at the end OF the last section at the
new water works.
The experiment proved unsucoeasfnl
Shortly after IL O'Clock the Waterman al
the new works heard noise like an ex.
plosion and moment later he saw column
of water shoot about twenty feet in the air,
followed by rush which began 10 turn the
ground in the neighborhood into lake.
be at once telephoned the police barracks
that the main had burst and all the water
OF the city was going to waste. The police
notified Chief Fireman Puder and Engineer
Manning, both Of whom hurried to Gwins
nett and West Broad streets and
closed the valve which connected
the big main with that Of
West Broad street and the balance Of the
city. They then went out to the works
ana made an investigation. Although the
place looked as il the river had broken it's
banks and run riot, no damage was done 20
the new plant. IL was found that the
pressure OF water had broke the last
length OF pipe from its connection because Of
she cap end not having strength to with
stand it.
The abutment will be built at once and
The pipe connected. If fire bad broken out
during the time the water was running
away through the new main the CITY would
have been in q bad FIX.

A Fashionable Resort,

It is daily becoming more and more the
proper thing for ladies to do their market
ing at the city market. Those who enjoy
and demand the best for their tables appre-
ciate the important fact that everything
there Is necessarily clean. wholesome and
pure, because everything there is under
the eye of official inspection. The slightest
infractioui of hygenic laws would be in-
stantlv detected and severely punished.
Added to this is the undeniable oom-
fort Of marketing where there is a
great variety at hand and where every
convenience for patrons exists. The con.
sequence is that the market has become a
great rendezvous for ladies. and one of the
elements that has contributed very largely to
it is the establishment OF Logan, the butcher.
The Importance Of obtaining fresh, choice
and sound meat is too plain for debate, and
the difficulty sometimes experienced in pro-
curing it in warm weather is known to all.
At IIogan's this is always TO be had. He
handles nothing else. He makes speciality
of fine trade, and his counters, blocks and
boxes are kept as clean as q parlor. All his
meats are invariably the best Nothing can
be added to that One trial always makes
a steady customer.-dd.

What Men Will Wear This Fail and
Winter.
There Is always some change In mem
styles each season, but seldom anything re-
markable, the fashion makers seeming
bent In discovering new fabrics rather than
creating any startling innovations in cut.
This season we are treated to a new line Of
cheviots, known as the "Guanoco's" and
"Bannock burns decidedly handsome goods
and made up in faultless styles. including
single square cut sacks, double-
breasted sack suits and SO on. OF course
the cheviots and tweeds that have been so
popular during the past two seasons are
still In line. and we exhibit a variety of
imported and domestic goods in attractive
suits unequaled outside Of the metropolis.
Cutaway suits are still popular and are
very dressy. We direct special attention TO
our boys and children's departments, dis
playing an immense stock and variety and
hope shis season to fully meet the enormous
demands indicated by past experience.
Our fall and winter neckwear display dis
counts, in volume and variety all past eff
forts and needs only to be seen to be ap-
preciated. Fall shapes In stiff and soft bats
are now exposed and you are invited to call
and get ''your hat"
With the largest stock IN Savannah, the
greatest variety of fabrics and styles, AND
THE LOWEST PRICES, we ask a repetition
of past favors at the hands Of our endless
clientage, Respectfully.

KILLED BY A LIVE WIRE.
Two Car Horses the victims-Narro
Escape of Pedestrians.

Escape OF Pedestrians.
The deadliness OF electricity was success
fully shown last night at IL O'Clock in Rey.
nolds square. Two horses attached to cal
No. OF the City and Suburban railway,
ran against q fallen burglar alarm wire Ant
were almost instantly killed.
The wire grounded across an electric rail
way guard wire at St. Julian and Haber-
sham streets and fell In . loop across the
south and east walks OF Reynolds square
and over the track of the City and Subur-
ban. Mr.. r. T. Baker, while on his way to
his home, at Abercorn Rnd.Bryan streets,
was abe nrst 10 discover that the wire was
down. His escape from the fate Of the
horses can only be accounted Tor py
the fact that he was walking slowly.
Mr.. Bakers right foot came In contact
with the wire. a shock ran up through DIS
leg and, with remarkable presence OF mind,
he sprang forward and cleared the death
dealing current. The disturbance OF toe
wire caused blue blaze 90 jump from IL In
every direction, and Mr.. Baker realized Tor
the first time that he had run against
live wire.
He at once notified Policeman Christian,
and the officers sent IN al alarm 70 the
barracks from Congress and Abercorn
streets. In the meantime the Clty ana
Suburban car came around from bay
street andAatarted south through the square.
When the horses reached the wire tner
forefeet struck 10 and the wire ran up unoer
their necks.
JEFF Davis, the negro driver, said the nrst
thing which attracted bis attention was the
stumbling Of the horses. In moment ne
saw a blaze Of Are shoot across IN Iront OF
them and with a simultaneous groAn both
dropped. Davis pat on she brakes as hard
as he could and Jumped 30 his horses 70 find
ont vhat rad happened. As he reached
down % unlock the trace chains be felt
singing IN his fingers which made him de-
eide 90 let things alone.
The wire burnt deep into che necks OF the
horses. and the oder OF burnt flesh could be
snelled half block away. The eyes Of the
dead horses were starting, as IL they had
been greatly frightened, and everything in.
dicated that death had been instantaneous.
Supt. Mcfarland OF the Electric railway
was the first electrician to arrive at the
scene Of the accident, and he at once out
the wire at the end from which the current
came and tied ii on tree out Of harms
way. Then he thought he traced the
OF the wire to she electric light
line block away, but later Investigation
showed IL to have grounded on the Electric
line a block farther down the
street, The wire which caused the fatality
had been abandoned for long time, and is
supposed to have fallen on account of the
rain. The accident attracted large crowd
10 the scene, and before the line was out
The police had lively time in keeping the
curious people who wanted TO lock at the
Head horses away from danger.

REIDsvILLE LITTLE RALLY.

T. s. Morgan and Aft Harrington
Went Up TO Divide Time With
Kemp.
7. s. Morgan, Esq, returned from Relds-
vile last night where be went to attend the
public speaking yesterday. expecting to d.
vide time with W. R. Kemp, the third
party candidate for congress. The third
party candidate refused 30 divide time.
though majority Of those present desired
him TO do so.
There we're exactly ninety-nine people
present at the meeting which was held at
the court house In Reidsville. There were
about half dozen negroes and about
thirty five third party men. The rest were
democrats. Alliance Lecturer II. L. Smith
and w. R. Kemp, third party candidate
for congress, appeared according to an
nouncement. Hon. Alfred Harrington end
T. s. Morgan, Jr., Esq, appeared for the
democrats and requested division of time
The proposition was discussed and 1t was
decided to put it to a vote of the meeting.
Although il was evident that the ma
jority was in favor of division of time
the chairman, who was third party man,
could not see it that was and counted them
out. So there was no debate. Lecturer
Smith and Candidate Kemp hnrangued the
crowd for about two hours each, without
exciting much enthusiasm.
Smith declared that the third party was
the genuine JefPersonian democracy.
Later on he said he still respected bis old
mother, the Democratic party.
| He said the only differences between the
Mckinley bill and the Mills bill was that
| the Mills bill was made entirely in favor Of
the south and the Mckinley bill was made
entirely In favor Of the north.
Mr.. Morgan said Tattnall is one of the
strongeat democratic counties in the dis
| trict. The sight Of a third party man has
a worse effect upon Tattnall county dem
ocrat than the sight OF q red rag has upon a
| bull.
The third party has heretofore claimed
Tattnall solidly, but IL it can only get out
ninety-niue men to hear their candidate
speak. more than one-half of whom are
democrats, they had better thrown up the
sponge in the district.
Col. Rufus E. Lester met the democrats
Of Liberty county at Hinesville yesterday
and addressed quite large gathering. Col.
| Lester will address the democrats OF Tay-
lor's Creek tomorrow, and will speak at
| Sylvania Tuesday aud at Darien Wednes-
day. He is meeting with an ovation all
over the district.
