USED TWICE OVER.
SILL OPEN TO APPLICANTS.

Congressman Lester Has Not Given
Out His Secretaryship Yet.
Since Congressman Lester announced in
the MORNING NEWS last week that he was
DESTROYS OF having applications for the sec
retaryship at his disposal he has had no
reason TO complain about being overlooked.
Every mail for several days has brought
letters from applicants and he has been
waited upon in person by the local aspirants.
So far all the applicants are wanting in the
very important linguistic qualification.
None of them can speak the half dozen
languages required, English, French, Ger
man, Spanish, Hawaiian and Persian. All
claim to have the other qualifications of
being stenographers and typewriters, and
knowing how TO treat with politicians
One applicant wrote that he could speak
four languages but, as he failed to specify
them, his chances for the appointment are
not very brilliant Another, preparatory
to filing his application, wrote a letter Of
inquiry TO know II it was really a fact shat
Congressman Lester desired an accom-
plished linguist for his secretary Still an
other said he would like TO get the Job pro
vided real knowledge of the language Of
the House OF Representatives was all that
was needed.
Congressman Lester prefers to have all
applicants make a personal call to his office
if they possess the required qualifications,
and if they cannot DO that conveniently, to
send their photographs. The position Of
secretary TO a congressman will pay 500 a
month while il lasts.

MISS ETHEL STILES DEAD.

Her Demise After Seven Weeks of
Illness From Typhoid Fever.
Miss Ethel Stiles. beautiful and accom-
plished young lady, died yesterday morning
at the home Of her uncle, Col. W. W. Cor
don, after an illness Of seven weeks from
typhoid fever. 1t was thought Saturday
that a change for the better had come In
Miss Stiles condition on account Of the de-
crease In her fever, but the weakness re-
suIting from the long siege was too great to
stand the reaction. Surrounded by her
mother and relatives she breathed her last
about s o'clock.
Miss Stiles was.an exceedingly attractive
young lady. Strikingly handsome and en-
doWed with gentle manner, together with
rare greces and accomplishments, she was
a favorite with every one who knew her.
Her home was at Etowah Falls, but for a
number Of years she had spent her winters
In Savannah with her mother, who is sis
ter OF Col. Gordon. She was extremely
popular IN social circles, aud at the Charity
ball OF last year, where she danced In the
minuet, she was the queen of the occasion.
She was young lady of remarkably good
health, and up TO the time she was stricken
with the fatal illness she had never known
the need Of physician.
Miss Stiles was a daughter OF the late
Capt. William Henry Stiles and was %
years Of age. She was a native OF Barlow
county. Besides her mother she leaves two
sisters and three brothers 20 mourn her
loss. Her body will be taken tonight by
the Central railroad to the family home
stead, at Etowah Falls, where she will be
laid to final rest in the family buryfng
kround. Rev. Mr.. Benedict of the Episco-
pal church will conduct the services.

CUTTING DOWN SHADE TREES.

Alderman Hsines' Ordinance Does Not
Appear TO &c Resp scJed Now.
The promiscucus cutting down Of shade
trees throughout the city has started the in
quiry if Alderman HaiLes' shade tree ordi-
nance is q dead letter.
Several months ago the alderman pro-
posed an ordinance prohibiting the cutting
down Of shade trees except By permission
of the council He did SO for the protection
of the beauties of Savannah, which, because
of its magnificent trees. has been given the
name of Forest city" Alderman Charl-
ton warmly seconded the measure and it
passed the board unanimously.
For time the ordinance was respected
but recently IL seems TO have been forg item
entirely, aud several handsome trees have
fallen victims to the ak without any refer
ence whatever to the council. Two large
spreading trees In front of Nc. John Lyons
residence at Bull and Wayne streets. two in
front of Mrs. Miller's house at Bull aud
Taylor streets aud oneon South Broad street
near Abercorn have been removed in the
last few weeks
It was claimed that these trees we're dead
but such was not the case with the two cut
down in front of Mr.. Lyons house. A
gentleman who saw the work in progress
remarked 10 one OF the workmen that it wss
pity % destroy such trees while they we're
alive, and he was told that the reason for it
was that the trees would probably die in
the course of a couple Of yeas.
Under the terms Of the ordinance whether
the trees are alive or dead the consent OF
the board OF aldermen must be secured
before they can be cut down. Alderman
Haines Is aroused about the matter aud he
viii probably bring it to the attention of

WRECK OF THE NANCY HANKS.
Murderer's Confession Reveals q
Startling SUSPICION.

| a Murderer's Confession Reveals &
! Startling suspicion.
The startling story comes from Macon
/ that Nathan Smith, negro sentenced to
death in Crawford county for the murder
/ OF Dow Walker, has made a confession
which indicates that the recent wreck Of
the Nancy Hanks was the work of two
negroes, whose purpose was to rob the
passengers who might be killed in the dis
aster.
The names Of the parties he accuses are
Owen Howard aud Ed Newton. Smith
says they told him the day before the
wreck occurred that they were going to
spread the rails OF the Central railroad and
do" train.
Smith made his confession to Solicitor
FELTON, in the Jail at Knoxville where he is
confined. He tries to put the murder of
Walker, for which be is to be hanged April
8, on Howard and Newton also. Smith
said that he was on his way to Southwest
ern Georgia, and while passing through
Crawford county, and about four miles
from the house where the murder was COM
mitted, he met Howard and Newton, who
told him that they had played -- a short
distance down the road, and that they did
it IN Jesse James and RUDE Burrows style
That they had killed two men and robbed
a house, and intended to live like Jesss
James and Rube Burrows He talked with
them a while and then left them
A week later Smith was arrested and
lodged in jail, charge with Walkers muir
der. There he remained without seeing
any one from the outside world except the
jailer and his assistants until March Is.
when he was surprised by having a visit
from Howard and Newton, who told him
that they were just from Columbus, where
one Of them had shot policeman while at
tempting to rob his house, and that they
we're then on their way to the Central rails
road, where they intended to wreck train
by spreading the rails. Next day the Nancy
Hanks was wrecked.
Their purpose in wrecking the train, they
said, was 10 rob the dead bodies Of those who
were killed and after this had been done they
would return to Knoxville and give Smith
$500 with which he could pay himself out Of
trouble.
Before leaving they cautioned Smith
about giving them away and upon his
promises not to do 80 they left with renewed
promises of the $500.
Smith assured Solicitor FELTON, and Col
Wallace, who accompanied the solicitor
that every word Of it was true and while
be did not expect to profit by it he wanted
to get il off his mind.

SATURDAY NIGHTS SHOOTING.

w. c. Umbach's story OF the At
tempted Killing of T. D. Brown.
W. C. Umbach, whose arrest by Police
man Murphy for attempting to shoot T. D.
Brown at jefferson and Wayne streets
Saturday night. was announced In yester-
days MORNING NEWS, says the shooting
was iu self-defense and in defense of UNI
bach's brother. Brown was in Umbach's
store, according to the latter's story, with a
crowd OF others throwing dice.
the trouble arose over Umbachs
refusal to let him have more whisky.
After having been twice put out of the
place he returned, and Umbach says att
tackled his brother and then himself with a
knife.
Brown was standing over the younger
Umbach who was partly on the ground,
Just outside the barroom entrance, when

did so Brown made thrust at him with his
knife. Umbsch fired with pistol Brown
ran yelling that he had been shot, and I'm
bach fired again. Neither shot took effect

circumstances He and Brown we're both

ing with intent to kill was entered against
Umbach. and stabbing with intent to kill
against Brown. Both cases will be heard

THE POLES TO BE TAXED.
MAYOR MDONOUGH AND COUN-
GIL Favor TaB MEASURE.

The Question May Come Up Wednes-
day Night-The Levying Of the New
Tax Would Hasten the Grounding Of
the Wires-The idea Not a New One
TO Alderman Eyers-He Wants the
Ordinance Passed Without Delay.
The matter Of Ievying ground rent or
tax upon the poles Of telegraph, telephone
and other companies, which was brought TO
the attention Of the public by the MORN
ING News several days ago, will soon be
discussed by the city council It may be
considered at the meeting next Wednes-
day night.
Mayor MoDonough is decidedly in favor
of the tax, as are a majority Of the aldermen
who have been spoken to ON the subject.
Since the United States supreme court has
decided the tax TO be legal the city fathers
see no reason why Savannah should not
reap a benefit therefrom as well as the large
cities of the north and west 1t has been
suggested that the revenue derived from
such tax might be put to good use in
helping to improve the streets or In aiding
the early contamination of the house drain
age scheme.
THE CENSUS OF FOLhSs
A census Of the poles which would be
subject TO such a tax will be the first step
taken and then the council will decide on
the amount per year to be required for their
occupancy of the streets. A large number
Of poles can be dispensed with, however, and
ell of these will no doubt be removed as
soon as the ordinances enacted.
The removal of these superduous poles will,
to some extent, reduce the revenues derived
from the new tax, but it will also relieve
Ssvauuah's streets of thousands Of eyesores
which now disiigure them.
If properly administered the new law will
improve the appearances of the city and will
60 some extent relieve the people of their
present burden Of taxation. II will also
hasten the day when all wires in Savannah
must be laid underground which is Mayor
McDonough's pet hoboy-one which he
hopes TO materialize before his term of
Office expires.
NOT a NEW IDEA.
The idea of making the companies pay a
tax for occupying the streets with poles is an
old one with Alderman Myers. He tried
some years ago to have it put into effect, but
was dissuaded at the time by some legal
opinions which held that the law would
hardly stand and If 1t did, long and expen-
sive litigation would be necessary before
it could be enforced. Now that the highest
tribunal Of the land has declared the tax a
valid one Alderman Myers is in favor of
having an ordinance on the subject enacted
without delay that the city may at once
reap the benefit which will result from It's
passage.
Baltimore has levied tax Of SO a year
upon the poles. st. Louis s. and Kansas
City 50. Chicago will PROBABLY make her
tax % IN order to get all the wires under
ground at once.

The case of Newell, whom New Orleans
had reserved for the season. however, termi-
mated quite differently, and in favor of the
st. Louis club. Won der Abe of the
Browns claimed that the short stop had
never been released. Newell, on the other
hand, claimed that when he Joined the
Toledo club of the Western League last sea-
son, his release went with him. The case
was presented to the board of control of the
National League, and they decided in favor
of st. Louis. This is one case where much
dissenson was manifested at the action of
the big league, not alone by the New
Orleans team, but by the entire Southern
League, aud, as a consequence, there are
several OF the leading magnates who are
favorable to withdrawing from the national
agreement entirely, claiming as their prin-
cipal reason that they fail to see where
their protection, for which they are paying,
comes in. The Southern and other minor
leagues pay a large sum OF money to the
National League for protection" Now
their idea OF protection" seems to be very
hazY: and their Interpretation of it depends
entirely upon whose ''ox is gored"
