A DELAYED BRIDAL TOUR.
Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur Jeffords Making
Theirs Now.

| Mr.. Arthur Jef1ords and bride, nee Miss
Sallie Jewett, have gone on their wedding
tour. They were married last march.
1t was not the fact that the young peo-
pie had gotten married without parental
consent that caused surprise yesterday,
but the discovery that the marriage was
several months old.
A marriage notice brought into the
MORNING. NEWS Office last night by mem
Der of the family appears this morning in
the column in which such notices are usu-
ally published. The notice reads:

Mr. and Mrs. Jeffords, then Mr.. JEFF
fords and Miss Jewett, left the city on
March 10, accompanied by Rev. Mr.
Lanier They were married at Yemassee
and Immediately returned home. A re-
port was circulated at the time that there
had been marriage, but it was denied by
the friends and members of the
families of the parties, and there
was so little to support it that it was for
gotten in day or two. Few people sus-
pected that the marriage had really taken
place.
MIR. Jeffords. removed his boarding
house, shortly after the marriage, to his
father-in-law's house. The latter it
seems, however, was in ignorance that he
had his son-in-law under his roof Re
Gently the young people decided that it
was time to make their marriage known,
and they left yesterday morning for
Charleston to spend the delayed honey

their marriage behind them, for the true
state of affairs was revealed to the fam

true colors under the roof under which
they have been residing for the past sew

SAVANNAH HEADS THE LIST
A Greater Increase in Business Than
ANY CITY in the Country.

Only Three Cities in the United States
Showed an Increase Last Week in
Clearing House Transactions over
Last Year Savannah's Increase IA
Per Cent.-More Cotton Received
Here Than at ANY other Port, and
Being Handled Easily.
As shown by the clearings Of
the Savannah clearing house,
which are always indicative of
the business of the banks, and con
sequently of the community. Savannah
had the greatest increase in business last
week over the business of the correspond
ing week Of the year before Of any city in
the United States.
This Is an admirable showing after the
financial etringency through which the
country has just passed. There are only
three cities in the United States whose
clearings last week show an increase
over those Of the corresponding week last
year. They are Savannah, Norfolk, Va,
and Waco. Tex, and as usual Sa-
vannah heads the list with an increase of
IA per cent, Norfolk comes next with an
increase of 10 per cent, and Waco with
an increase of 3 per cent.
Every other city in the United States
shows a decrease in the amount of the
clearings over those Of the same week
last year.
This is good evidence Of how well
Savannah has stood the test Of the dull
times, and how little effect they have had
on her business interests. And with all
this business here is on the increase.
Savannah has received more cotton
this year than any other port in the coun-
try, and still it is coming in as rapidly as
it is anywhere else in the south. No diff
Guilty is being met in handling all that is
being shipped here, and there are plenty
of vessels on hand to take it away.

All of the schools show slight decreases
except St. Patrick's, which shows an in
crease Of sixty-four pupils over last years
enrolment, and Massie which shows an
increase of twenty-fouf pupils
The absence of the Jewish children
will more than account for the decrease.
AT the West Broad street colored
school al pupils were enrolled, and at
the East Broad street school 700. The
enrollmants last year were: West Broad
street S25, East Broad street 563. Add
ing the total of the colored schools, 1.47l.

Inspeotor.

AIS BOShOA'
DR. FIT Lincoln left last night for Jesup
He will be stationed at Jesup as a govern
ment inspector as long as danger of yellow
fever is believed to exist at that point. He
will be subject to the orders of Surgeon
Murray at Brunswick.
DR. Lincoln's appointment is due to DR..
Brunner's efforts. DIR. Drummer wired the
surgeon general yesterday stating that
there were large numbers of Brunswick
refugees at Wares bOrO and Gardi, and
that it was reported that a case of fever
existed al WaresborO. He also urged that
the condition Of affairs at Jesup required
the presence of a government ms pector
He asked the surgeon general to cXerCis G
his prerOgatlve and take charge of the
places mentioned, and all the section Of
country in the nei Oh bOrhOOd of Bruins
wick He received the following reply:
Washington D. c.. Oct DIR Drummer,
Health Onicer Savannah. Ga: Have ordered
DR.. DeSaussure to inspect Waresboro and DR.
FACET TO inspect Card Wire name reliable
physician for insI c tor at Jesup. Eight
dollars per diem. AUSTIN.
Surgeon, for Surgeon General.
DIR. Drummer replied that he could not
secure the services of a reliable yellow
fever expert for the compensation men
toned. He received the following tele-
gram yesterday afternoon;
Washington, ID. G, Oct. DIR. w f.
Drummer. Savannah, Ca: Send competent
physician Immediately TO Jesup as inspector
and direct him to report by wire to Murray
for full orders. Arrange compensation and
wire name. Murray ordered to prevent per
sons leaving Jesup except through camp at
Naynesyille. WYMAN Surg. Genl
DIR. Lincoln having already volunteered
his services to the government in case he
should be needed in the yellow fever dis
trict, DR.. Drummer appointed him to go to
Jesup. DR.. Lincoln is immuned to yellow
fever, having had il once and has had
considerable experience with the dis
ease. DR.. }. G. Keller will attend to DR..
Lincoln's practice during his absence from
the city.
DR.. Drummer believes the surgeon gen
eral should exercise his prerogative and
compel the Brunswick refugees remaining
in the localities named to enter the camp
OF detention, where. after spending ten
days, they will be able to go into any por-
ton of the state without interference.
DR.. Drummer said that there is nothing
mysterious about the manner in which
Warren, who died at Jesup, contracted
the yellow fever 1t mad been found on
investigation, DR.. Drummer said. that
Warren had visited freely among the
Brunswick refugees at Gardi and other
places in that neigh bOrhood, and had
had ample opportunity of receiving the in
lection from them.

MR.. DU BIGNoN BACK.
He Did Not Announce His Candidacy

for the Senatorship in New Y ork.
Hon. Fleming G. duBignon returned to
the city yesterday from an extended trip
through the north and east. He did not
stop long in Washington on his return to
the south, but he has kept well posted on
the situation since he left, and is conf
dent that the Democratic party will full
fill every promise it has made
Mr.. DuBignon was asked about the re.
port that he had announced his candidacy
for the senatorshIp while in New York
He said that the report was erroneous. and
that when he decided to become a candi-
date he would announce it from Georgia
and not from New York.
He was interviewed by no newspaper
man in New York, but was talking with
number of southern gentlemen a few
days before he left the city, and to them
he stated that he had not announced his
candidacy. 1t is probable that part of
this conversation was repeated to a re-
porter sometime afterward and he put his
ownconStructionon it.

THERE ARE FORTY APPLICANTS.
All Want Jobs in Uncle Sans Va
rious Departments.

A civil service examination will be held
in Savannah on Oct. 10, commencing at
Q o'clock.
Postmaster Doyle has been notified to
make provision for the examination of
forty applicants.
The examinations are both for the de-
partmental and Indian services as well as
the railway mail service, and this, per-
haps, accounts for the unusually large
number of applicants at this point.
An examiner from the civil service
commission in Washington will be here TO
supervise the examination, but he will be
assisted by the board of local managers.
The examinations will probably be held
in the custom house, as there is no place
at the postoffice building to accommodate
so large number. The papers will be
sent to Washington, where they will be
passed upon by the commission.

WHAT EASTER MEANS.

A Refreshening of Creation, an Awaken
ing of tho Heart, Conscious, Warm,
Deep and Holy.
Eastertidc again! Home shrine and
public altar blossom once more with
the stately, delicate Easter lilies
Once more the pipes of the throbbing
organs breath forth the exultant Easter
anthem. Once more the Easter bells
proclaim in swelling triumph: "He is
risen"
but this is not the season of flowers
and music alone. Man turns with visit
full eyes to scan the life of his fellow
man for signs of the risen Christ. And
through the sclfishness, the strife, the
rush for gain, the oppression of the
poor, the crushing of the weak, he
catches faint CLEANS of hope.
Wherever man stoops in pity over
the Borrowing or the afflicted; wherever
man looks into the eyes of foe,
breathing: 81 forgive" there is Christ
risen indeed. Wherever the hand of
woman reaches out in sweet charity,
wherever she bravely walks beside to
upbear an erring sister, Christ is risen
indeed.
Wherever the soul OF the people,
Arising in courage and might,
Bursts forth from the error that shrouded
Its hope in the gloom OF the night;
Wherever in sight OF Gods legions
The armies OF evil recede
And truth wins soul for the Kingdom,
The Master is risen indeed"
All, no! Easter means more than
lilies and sermons and bells. Its com.
ing is to the soul what the return OF
the sun is to the earth-a refreshing
of creation, the full awakening of the
heart, conscious, warm, deep, holy-a
very resurrection. " Dung Mems Era
