The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1892-09-11

was throwing the dirty water out of the
tub, when she swung the tub too heavy and
In trying to retain her foothold she met
with the accident.
Poolerites were in it regarding the buIlstins
from the Corbett-Sullivan mill wire
was used by Operator Buren, and the bows
we're kept posted by rounds. The result of
the fight was known IN Pooler as soon as it
was in Savannah, and Corbett was cheered
to the echo by the bushwhackers when the
result was announced.
On account of the sickness Of Can't. FIJI.
Marshall. the committee appointed at the
citizens meeting to formulate plans for the
drainage Of POoler, has made no report and
the matter is still in statu quo. It is regret
ted that this matter does not receive imme-
diate attention, as it Is Of vital Importance
to every Poolerite to have the town put In
q frsE-class sanitary condition, and that,
too, as soon as possible.
The festival for the benefit Of the Pooler
Catholic church will take place next We'd
nesday evening, and large attendance is
expected. Contributions from friends in
Savannah and elsewhere will be thankfully
received. The ladies having charge Of the
affair promise everybody who attneds a
happy time. Arrangements will do doubt
be made with the Central to sell round trip
tickets for that night, as a large delegation
from Savannah is expected.
1t was given out on the shooay last Fri
day night that the veteran conductor, Uncle
Mike Jordan, would positively be taken off
the main line and put on the Tybee run. Ii
Is understood that Capt. Frank Bevill will
have charge of Uncle Mikes trains. To the
regular patrons Of the Central the removal
OF Mr.. Jordan ia regarded with displeasure,
and not a few have expressed themselves in
favor OF getting up petition to have him
retained on the same trains.
The genial agent of the Central, T. W.
buren,, who has made host of friends here
by his accommodating and pleasing mans
ners, it is rumored, has rendered his resig-
nation to Supt. McNeely as agent at Pooler.
The resignation was caused by the reduc-
ton Of his salary from S45 to $50 per
month. The position is not very desirable
one by any means, as he has to act as agent,
telegraph operator, porter, etc. The recent
order compelling him to pay for the light
ing Of the switch lamps is what caused the
resignation.
Clayborn Bevill, father Of Capt. s. BeviIl
of the steamer Katie and Capt Frank
Bevil Of the Central, died last Wednesday
at Oliver and was buried In Turkey Branch
cemetery. Rev. Thompson preached an
eloquent sermon on the life Of the deceased
and there was not dry eye during its de-
livery, Mr.. Bevill was rs years old and
was one of divers foremost citizens He
had been failing in health for some time
and his death was not unexpected. Capt.
Frank Bevil has the sympathy Of host of
Pooleritee in his sad bereavement.
Third partyites around Pooler are making
capital out Of the fact that the democrats
will not recognize them by sending any of
their candidates to the meeting at Pooler
next Thursday night. The managers OF the
meeting say they thought they could draw
out some OF the speakers, but the challenge
has not been accepted. Col. Lester Col
Wright, and all OF she legislative candidates
are included In the lisb of challenged de-
baters. Col Lester will speak at MIllen
Thursday, however, and will be
at the Statesboro rally Friday. There are
few third party followers in this section of
Chatham, but they are doing good deal of
talking. D. c. Newton and George H.
day and are busy inviting everybody TO
come and have the new doctrine explained.
There has been no change in the schedule
accommodations given Poolerites by the
Central and the "early birds" still cling to
the "green line sleepers." In conversation
with a number of Poolerites regarding the
present accommodations, it was learned
that they are considering the plan Of giving
up living at Pooler and returning to Savan-
nah, as they are Inconvenience too much
by the schedules. There is no doubt but
that once the move is started to return to
Savannah, the Central will run its trains
different from what they are run now. Pooler
has a population Of about 900 now, and is
not Incorporated. The present state of af-
fairs has made the citizens take more than
an unusual interest in the building of the
proposed electric line of cars to Savannah,
and with a little energy on the part of a
few capitalists could soon have Its transpor-
tation troubles buried.
