Consid cradle Betting Among the
Pugilists' Admirers.
To-day's prize-hght at Thunderbolt be-
tween MoRae aud RAedy is. exciting great
interest among the male population Of
Savannah. and if all who are discussing the
event attend, DOyle's park will be made
quate to hold the crowd.
Betting on the result was
lively at the sporting circles last night
and plenty of money is up in the hands Of
Stockholders. Raedy is the fsvorite on &C.
count of his superior physical development
over McRae. He is much more muscular
and seems capable OF standing greater
punishment than his opponent, but EcRae's
ton of the Sullivan-Corbett mill. They
admit that Raet1y is the hardest hitter and
more powerful man, but at the same time
they claim their favorite superior in
science and less easy to wind.
McRae is the tallest man and has longer
reach than Raedy, and 1t is claimed Is as
1.-the as a cat on his feet.
Both men finished their regular training
course last night, and this morning they
! will take thsir final exercise after q bath in
punching the bag After this the pugilists
VIII be kept quieS in their quarters until
the time for the fight Raedy will weigh
, il at about $50 pouRds and McRae at boz
( tween lao and ! Is pounds. The fight will
commence promptly at o'clock.
1t will be a contest to a finish under
Marquis of Queensberry rules. Six-ounce
gloves will be used. Raedy and McRae are
| both confident OF winning and a lengthy
and spirited contest is looked for.

It pays to advertise No sane person need he
told that fact. The only remaining question is
how to dc it best. There is but q very slight
division of opinion upon that subject Sc far as
ordinary business enterprises go. The success

finds that money invested In that manner brings
inevitably large returns Naturally the heaviest
OF all advertisers are circus proprietors Ona
but needs to look at the advertising now being
done by the Adam Forepaugh Shows Just stop
10 consider for one moment that all that enOr-

In America does 80 much advertising, and it
follows as certain as does the setting

IN the east, that no other concern does SO much

ne SAID: The newspapers are indisputaby the
pest medium for advertising and were it not for

other medium. except for one purpose and that
is this: Words will not, nor can they convey

see they are not mere Imaginative and exag-

posters to the extraordinary extent We do on
that account. Still, the newspaper is the best
OF mediums. 1t can tell its readers Just what
they will see because they can learn from their
newspaper exchanges just what the shows are
In other cities before they come, and as the
shows never, under any circumstances divide
or curtail their performances. the newspapers
know and can toll their readers the plain truth.
That Is just what we like 70 have them do as
the papers are all with us, and say what Is no

THE SUN IN A SHADOW.
How Savannahians Saw the Partial
Eclipse Of Old Sol.

How Savannahians Saw the Partial
Eclipse of Old Sol.
The partial eclipse Of the sun occurred on
time yesterday between II and O'Clock
and was watched with great interest by
many Savannahians. To be exact. the
eclipse began at II :5S o'clock and concluded
at 2:51
There were any number OF people with
smoked glasses waiting to see the moon
davken the suns face, and many eyes were
turned toward the sun during the time
of the performance. Beginning on sched-
ule time the moon gradually encroached
upon the northeast portion of the suns sur
face. AT first IL appeared TO be merely "a
dark spot on the edge. This gradually in
creased until it seemed that about one-sixth
or one-hfbh perhaps OF the SUMS surface had
been neatly scooped OUT leaving the sun
looking something like "a new moon with a
big body and small crescent. The sight
was an interesting one, and there were many
watchers during the entire eclipse.
The only appreciRble effect of the eclipse
terrestrialiy, was a slight haze in the atrnos-
phere as Of a very slight fog. Prof. Ash
more and his pupils at the high school
watchod the phenomenon with considerable
Interest, though. as has been said before, the
eclipse was OF very little scientific impor-
lance, being only partial and NOT total
The next eclipse visible at Savannah will
occur about year hence and will be only
very slightly visible. Tho grand total
eclipse Of the sun, visible at Savahnsh, will
occur in May, 1900, when there viii be
tOteA darkness Ia the middle Of the day.

SLICK CAR ROBBERS.
SEALS REMOVED AND REPLACED
ALMOST. WITHOUT A SCRATCH.

Professional Thieves Systematically
Robbing Central Cars Without Leav~
ing Trace Behind Them-Detectives
and Watchmeu Fooled For a Time.
Clews Finally Discovered Which
MAJ Lead to Sensational Develop
ments.
Professional car robbers are at work
around Savannah, and although detectives
have been trying to locate them for some
time, they are still at large and deprsdating
the property of the Central railroad. For
weeks freight cars have been robbed be-
tween the wharves and the 1~mile post
through some mysterious agency. Things
would be missed from the cars after having
been sent from the wharves, and still the
cars had the appearance Of having been
untouched, the seals being secure on the
doors.
Watches were kept on the oars while thsy
were on the sidiugs, but the robbers seemed
20 be In thorough touch with events and
kept away at these times, only TO rob the
oars the first night the wHtchmen were dis
pensed with.
WHARF HANDS SUSPECTED.
Men on the wharves were suspected, but
investigation proved that nothing went
wrong at that point.
Detectives were called into ssrvios fin
ally, and after an extended investigation
the officers found that the cars were entered
by the robbers through the doors. The
means employed prove the men TO be
adopts 10 their criminal business. They
removed the seals with a nicely born only
of familiarity, pushed the doors aside,
entered the cars, helped themselves and re-
placed the seals with hardly q mutilation.
The detectives only disco ered where
the seals we're opened after
q minute investigation. Attempts
were made to trace the robbers,
but It proved fruitless, because as soon as
the detectives were employed the robberles
ceased and the cars were left unmolested.
THEIR WORK oLEvERLY DONE.
AS soon, however, Gs the services of the
detectives we're dispensed with the roboertes
commenced again ia the old style and have
been occurring at regular intervals since.
The same clever means have been adopted
to enter the cars and despite all possible
diligence the ROBBERS have eluded capture
and accomplished their ends without leav-
ing the slightest clew behind. Detectives
have again been employed and are
now hard at work endea voring TO unravel
the mysterious robberies. The officers will
keep after the matter this time until they
either capture the robbers or break up the
fine system Of thieverY. One detective yes
terday secured some olsws which may re-
suit IN several arrests within few days. If
his theories are correct some very sensa-
SIGNAL developments will take place shortly.

CROSSED BY A LIVE WIRE.
a Telephone Company's Lineman's
Narrow Escape From Electrocution.

a Telephone Company's Lineman's
Narrow Escape From Electrocution.
Line Inspector Finnegan of the Bell Tele-
phone Company had a narrow escape yes
terday. He was called upon to repair a
private telephone in D. J. Murphy's Office,
on Drsyton street, connecting Mr. Murphy's
office with mis- coal yard. While at work
upon the telephone in the Office late in the
afternoon there was a sudden report and a
flash. The lineman received a shock that
sent him away from the telephone in
hurry.
''If my feet had been on the ground" he
exclaimed, that would have killed me-"
His left hand was badly burnt whore he
held the receiver. The effect of the shock
was to stun him for a few seconds. In
vestigatlon revealed that the telephone wire
had become crossed upon a Belt Line wire
on Bay street, and Mr.. Finnegan had re-
caived the full force of the current. The
instruments at each end of the line were
burnt out.
This, illustrates the increasing danger
with the constant increase in electric wires
in the city of accidents of this kind, some Of
which are liable to result more seriously
than that Of yesterday. The killing
OF the two mules Of the City and Suburban
railway on Abercorn street recently, by
dead wire which had become charged from
crossing live wire, is still remembered.
IL is evident that the CITY will have TO take
steps for the protection of the public from
aocidentf OF this kind. All the dead wires
the city should be taken down
by the companies erecting 1t, and 1t should
be the duty OF the city electrician or some
other officer appointed for the purpose to
See that all wires erected are safely put up
and not liable 60 become crossed with the
wires Of other companies.
