Plays seen in Long Time.
Few Better plays than "The Charity Balr'

first time in Savannah last night. The
play is of to-day-of real flesh and blood
with the action all in New York. John Van

'Dick Van Buren," bis brother, Is broker
OF Wall street, ambitious to be its king. Op-
posites in aims and occupations-one with
conscience, the other a money getter-they
have in common only love for their
little sister "Bess" and alteration for
a dear, old, blind mother, whom
they call the households angel.
The clergyman and his brother love the
same girl. This girl is betrayed by the
broker before she is acquainted with the
clergyman. The latter goes to her assist
ance during her dying fathers financial
wreck. He takes her to his blind mot hers

wit of De Mile and the clever stage man.
agement and direction of Belasco. With
the exception of the charity ball scene of
the second act, all the scenes are at the rec~
tory. and about it all there is an air of re-
finement that makes an auditor feel that he
is in good company. Mr.. Frohman has
sent company here to represent the play
that, in its merit and artistic composition,
is happy disappointment. 1t is a COM
pany well selected to play this one piece,
and the result is a delightful performances
The audiesce last night received the play
enthusiastically. The comedy parts created
constant laughter, and the pathetic parts
were beautifully rendered. A matinee per-

The First Public Installation OF Officers
in Savannah.

The First Public Installation of Officers
in Savannah.
The first public installation of officers of
the knights of the Golden Eagle was that
Of Fidelity Castle, No. at Odd Fellows hall
last night. The ceremonies were both impress
sive and interesting. The hall was crowded
with ladies and gentlemen, and the occasion
was one that was heartily appreciated by
those who were present.
Grand Chief A. N. Manucy, assisted by
the grand castle officers, G. II. Van
MUSE, grand vice chief; w. B. Bidden-
back, grand high priest; P. G. Callahan.
grand sir herald, and john G. Bernhardt,
master Of records, installed the officers OF
the lodge. The opening Of the castle and
installation Of the officers was similar to the
form used In secret session, and to that exc
tent the outside public obtained an inside
view OF how the business is done. A good
many ''unsophisticatedn individuals ex~
pected to hear the command Bring forth
the Royal Billy" and the final test Of fidel-
ity, the task OF climbing the
greasy pole, but, it lis needless to
say. they We're badly disappointed.
One Of the uninitiated went so far as to
ask a K g. where the goat part came in.
and he was promptly told it was at the
closing part of the ceremonies.
P. Chiet-George w. Allen.
Noble Chief-W. C. Sweat
V. CD. J. Masters.
Sir Herald-H A. Carter.
High Priest-C. /. DeMore.
Master of Records-M. j. Evans
Exchequer-J. Q. Fenley
Keeper Of Exchequer-.O. Olsen.

Appointed officers:
E-quire-H. E. Quantock.
Ensign-John Wodell.
w. Chamberlain-E. L. Floyd.
First Guardsman-W. D. Thomson.
Second Guardsman-John Brannen.
At the conclusion of the installation,
Knight Barclay gave short talk upon the
workings of the order, and was followed by
Grand Chief Nancy, who delivered en- adj
dress to the Knights and people Assem- led.
A feature Of the occasion was the musical
part of the programmes.
The most pleasing part was the duet by
the little daughters of the grand chief,
Lillian and Stella. They brought down
the house, 50 to speak, and we're loudly APP
plauded. The festivities wound up with a
collation., and it was late hour when the
guests departed.

The Scientific American has discovered
an increased demand for sailing vessels on
the ocean, and gives some valuable records
orspeed and cargoes made by great sailing
vessels. 1t says: Tho demand for sailing
vessels has, of late, shown a marked increase
both here and abroad In Great Britain. &C.
cordiug to Lloyd's Registry, there being
now 15l such craft with total tonnage Of
lS5, oO7 under construction against rs with a
tonnage OF 80, 600 this time last year. Here
about the same tendency is manifest. The
rate OF steamer construction iu Great Brit
ain has seen marked falling off during the
year, and though in these waters the
rate has largely increased, it may
easily be traced to favorable log
islation rather than to further
abandonment Of the sailing type. Ship
ping people, it would seem, are beginning
to discover that for certain classes of trade
in which time is not a very material ele-
me1t, ths sail Is more economical than the
steam engine; the price of fuel, too. is tell
ing against the latter. Then, again, the
difference in cost of construction between
steamer and sailing vessels when compared
with the amount Of saving in time in aver
age voyaging Of the ordinary steam tramper
over the sailer, inclines TO favor the lat
TER. The steam tramp, IL will be found.
Will not average much above ten knots
under favorable conditions; to push her at
hlgner speed would largely increase her
sailing expenses, while against heavy head
seas she would not do so we'll by
two or three knots. The smart sailer.
on the other hand, though falling
far short of this figure with winds heading
her of, is good for much more than ten
knots under favorable conditions of wind
and sea. With the old-time clipper ships
sixteen knots On hour, aud even more than
that. was not unusual with favorable gales
over their counters. The clipper ship Great

The two negroes who robbed and beat
nearly to death the Russian peddler, Abra-
ham Minkowitz, on the Savannah and Isle
Of Hope railroad, Tuesday. were captured
last night b. Detective Morgan and lodged
in the barracks
Detective Morgan has been on the track
OF the robbers since the day Of the robbery
be very soon discovere who they were and
last night he located them in Yamacraw
They are Oven Jones and Willis Brown.
Jones was found in house in "l5-csnt' alley
near the canal. He was arrested without
trout le On his way 70 the barracks he
confessed he was implicated in the robbery,
but said that Willis Brown, his companion,
was the man who did the work. he said
Brown was in the same house az which he
was arrested, and that he could be found
there II the officer would hurry back.
Detective Morgan sent Harmon Wsters,
who was assisting him, back to the house to
secure Brown, which he did, AID took him
10 the barracks also. Brown in turn said
he was at the robbery. out
the other man did the work. Both ac-
knowledged being present aud implicated in
the robbery and assault, though each laid

Morgan. They are heavy bludgeons aud
were evidently cut from the swamp for the
purpose for which they were used.
Both Jones and Brown are young me-
groes, the former being about 10 and the
latter 81 years old. Jones has Just served a
twelve months sentence on the gang
for similar offense committed
on Skidaway Island. Skidaway IS Jones'
home, or the home Of some Of his relatives,
and the pair made directly for the island
after the robbery. Detective Morgan was
informed by people living on Skidaway
that Jones and his gang had made regular
business Of highway robbery and had robbed
and beaten a number of people, even calling
men to halt on horse back.
Minkowitz's pocketbOok was found on
Jones. The pair confessed they got 65 cents
from Minko witt, which they divided aud
afterward lost in a skin game Jones
and Brown will be committed TO
jail this morning on the charges OF assault
with intent to murder and highway
robbery.
Minkowitzs wounds are very serious end
there is possibility that he may not re-
cover. He was beaten in most brutal
manner.
Detective Morgan deserves credit for his
quick work in running down two such dan
gerous characters as Jones and Brown. He
was greatly assisted in his work by Officer
Waters.
