TRUE ELEMENTS OF MANHOOD.

Rev. DR.. Goodwin to Deliver an Ad-
dress at Wesley Tomorrow.
Special services under the auspices Of the
Young Mems Christian Association will be
held at Wesley church tomorrow afternoon
at 3:45 O'Clock. Rev. DR.. Good win of the
First Baptist church will deliver an address
on the "True Elements OF Manhood" State
Secretary Anderson will also be present and
tell OF the progress OF the association work
in Georgia.
This will be the first OF series of meet
ings OF this character. They will serve to
create q new interest in the local association
and To prepare for the active work of ths
coming fall and winter.
The membership of the association Is
slowly increasing. The reading rooms are
well patronized and there are grounds to
believe that the association will enjoy what
may be called a boom" in q short time.
The new secretary has his work well IN
hand, and with the assistance Of the mea
who have made the association what IL now
is, should be able TO accomplish a great
work. A capable gymnasium instructor
will be secured, who will assume charge of
the physical department in October.
Financially the association has suffered,
like all other enterprises, from the dullness
in business. Its friends have rallied to its
support Of late, though, aud 1t is not be-
lieved the work will be allowed to lose it's
force through lack of sufficient means. It
has long since passed out OF the stage where
its usefulness might be questioned.

SOME DETECTIVE work NEEDED.
Petty Burglsries Becoming Altogether

Petty Burglaries Becoming Altogether
Too Frequent.
The fruit store of Spero Haugikos, at
Whitaker and Macon streets, was burglar
lied Thursday night. The thief made bis
entrance by pryiug open the window shut
ters, breaking out pane Of glass and rails
ing the sash of a window IN the rear Of the
store, on the Macon street side.
About $25 Ia money and a considerable
quantity OF cigars, cigarettes and tobacco
were secured. Hanglkos discovered his
loss when he came down to his shop ysster
day morning. Cigars and cigarettes were
found scattered through the square nearby.
There was no olew to the thief. 1t Is be-
lieved, however. that he is the
same party that stole $40 out
OF Hangikos' cigar case while he was SELL
ing some fruit to small boy outside. The
boy was used as a blind by the thief to at
tract attention from his movements.
Several burglaries of a similar character
have taken place recently. A woman in
the southern portion of the city was robbed
Of about 800 in money aud some small
household articles few nights ago. There
seems to be plenty Of room for detective
work ia these cases

another Greek fruit dealer, In q quarrel

IT LOOKED LIKE A FAIR.

And Very Successful Ons at That.
The sale of summer clothing of all kinds
now going on at our house, 159 Congress
street, was well patronized all day yester-
day, and every one that bought generally
got bargain. In fact, one can only get
bargains, as every article has been reduced
to nominal figure. The way we done it,
every garment has a string tag hung on t.
1t, showing the reduced price, and the orIgi-
nal ticket is also left, showing each pur-
chaser what reduction Is actually made on
each article. The stock consists OF every
kind of summer goods imaginable -alpacas,
pongees, mohairs, fsnnels, linens-in coats,
coats and vests, or suits, for men and boys,
amounting to over 81, 500. Every dollars
worth must be sold, IL price will do it.
Don't miss this great opportunity, ard get
for yourself new summer outfit, at cost or
less than one-half original prices. Come
early and get choice. Respectfully,

CAPT. BRApWRLL,s TALK.
The Outlook for Public Schools Better
Than Ever Before.


Than Ever Before.
The Peabody institutes were enlivened
yesterday by the presence Of Capt. s. D.
Bradweii, state school commissioner. Capt.
Bradwell visited both the white and the COL
ored institutes, and addressed the teachers
at both places.
There were about sixty teachers assem-
bled to hear him at the white institute
and about fifty teachers at the colored.
Capt. Bradwelrs addresses were voted
by the teachers among tine best he has ever
made. They we're bright and sparkling
and full of points and illustrations bearing
upon the teachers work
Capt. Bradwels entire time has besu
taken I'D during the last month In opening,
visiting aud directing these institutes. He ad-
dressed the teachers yesterday upon the sub
Jects OF primary and common school work,
laying particular stress upon practical work
as opposed to high-fiown theories and a
show OF superficial knowledge.
Capt. Bradwell had just come from Athens
where the state normal school is in progress.
There are 100 teachers in attendance UPON
that school. and the work Is proving most
satisfactory. The commissioner is delighted
with the interest shown.
At the institute now being conducted at
Americus thers are sixty teachers in at
SSNoHco huu tnS LusblIuVo ID pEOFAuk worry
successful.
Capt. Bradwell says there is no ques-
ton but that these institutes are having a
great effect in uplifting and increasing the
efficiency of the pu bic school teachers. Capt.
Bradwell regards the prospects Of the COM
mon schools now as much brighter than
they have been az any time since the war.
Capt. Bradwell returned last night 70 At
lanta. He will visit the Savannah insti-
tutes again about Aug. Is. at which time
he may be accompanied by Gov. Northen.
An urgent invitation has bsen extended the
governor by both the white and colored
teachers to visit the institutes. His visit ia
by no means certain, however.
The subjec6 Of discussion at the institute
yesterday was the system Of offering prizes
In schools. Tbs trend of the discussion was
against the prize system, which was gen
eraly agreed to be pernicious aud unsatis-
factory In its results.

company's financial condition the aqueduct
committee says:


Your committee has been unable TO find that
any cash capital has been placed in the treas
ury of this corporation, the stockholders of
Ryan Mcdonald, aud, therefore, we have to
come to the conclusion That the only reason for
forming the above corporation was to limit and
evade liability.
Attention need hardly be called to the fact
that the building of such vast work as the new
Croton dam, the greatest undertaking OF its
KIND ever attempted, requires very large
capital. It is, therefore, of the utmost i'm
portance that the city should be amply assured
OF the comuletion of the work once begun, since
the abandonment by the contractors of this
work In a alf-completed condition would In
volve the city in great loss
The capital of the Ryan & Mcdonald COM
pany offers no such security, nor is there any
personal liability involved on the part of its
principal stockholders. On their bond for
S5O0OOO is the American Surety Company, q
corporation of undoubted responsibility, but
we do not think the right OF action on a bond,
however good the bondsmen may be, can COM
pensate for the absence of responsibility on the
part OF the principals.
The report wound up by recommending
that all of the bids submitted should be
thrown out and that the work should be
readvertised at once. This recommends
ton was carried out.
While nothing has been heard from any
citizens Of Savannah indicating on their
part desire to abridge the rights Of labor
ers, or diminish their pay. there Is a gen.
eral feeling Of intense disappointment that
almeasure should be enacted which will re-
tard the completion of a project 30 neces-
sary to Savannah's commercial prosperity
as Is the Improvement Of her harbor.

Sensational Reports Put in Circulation

Highly sensational reports were In circu-

alleged attack upon Mayor McDonouzh at
the Hotel Tybee by Chief Gaffney OF the
Tybee police force.
According to the reports, which were
widely circulated but could not be authori-
tatively substantiated, the assault was the
outcome OF the fine of $500 inflicted by
Mayor McDonough on Mrs. Gaffney for
violetlon Of the Sunday laws. The reports
were discussed on all sides and the original
statements were greatly magnified by re-
iteration. 1t was impossible to reoch the
