A WAKE WORTH ATTENDING.

The Last { fficlel Ride of the Present
county Comm sston ers.
The county commissioners and their in
vited guests spent yesterday inspecting the
public works on the county lands. About
forty gentlemen were ia the party which
left the court house at 80 o'clock.
After lunch at the Queensbury homestead
the party visited the Hanna bridge, where
the large trunks are being built to control
the waters from the Casey canal The work
at that point was a surprise to many who
saw 1t, and met with general approval
The steam dredge was next inspected, and
what it had done and was doing were mar
vels TO those who witnessed its operations.
The site of the proposed park and the
grand boulevard, the Meridian road, were
also visited, and the general opinion was
that the commissioners were not mistaken
in the value Of these great public improve
ments.
The visit 10 the county's property is one
that will not be forgotten by those who
were 81 fortunate as TO make it, and there
were many amusing incidents connected
with 1t, among which was the reading Of a
funeral notice alleged to have been sent to
the MORNING News on Tuesday evening,
but which was not published:
FUNERAL NOTICE.
The friends and acquaintance Of the county
commissioners are respectfully requested to at
this wednesday, morning at 1870 o'clock.
Omit flowers.
The services and interment will take place

Solicitor General Griggs of the Pataula
circuit and Hon. o. B. Stevens OF Dawson,
two well>known politicians, are in the city.
Mr.. Stevens was candidate for the con-
gressional nomination in the Second district
last summer and came within a few votes
of carrying Off the prize. He is one of the
leaders OF the bar in his section and ex-
tremely popular with his people.
Nearly everybody in the state knows7the
happy, good-natured solicitor who calls
himself Jim Griggs of Georgia" He is
one Of the best story tellers in the state, and
power on the stump, as the third party
ties of his section will sorrowfully attest
from personal experience in the last cam
paign. He is an expert politician and his
opinion is worth considerable. Mr.. Griggs
says the people in his part of the state are a
unit for Hon. +. G. duBignon for United
States senator TO succeed Senator Colquitt
and thai this question will be an issue in
the next legislative campaign. Mr..
Stevens says the same feeling prevails all
through Southwest Georgia.

ington's birthday here Yesterday.
With the exception of a little too much
wind the day was perfect one for street
parade Of the soldiers. 1t was bright and
braoi &, neither too cool nor too warm,
and the big turnout of the regiment showed
that its members delight in honOring the
memory OF the great military ohieftain who
made possible the most glorious country
under the sun.
The regiment rendezvoused at the armOry
at o'clock and marched to Liberty street,
where the line was formed, with the right
resting on Bull street. Promptly at $3.50
O'Clock the line was put In motion. There
Reilly commanded, and had as members of
his staff Lieut.. Sstterlee, U. s. A, and
Capt. Kenan OF the Macon Hussars. The
colors Of the regiment were folded and
drRped in mourning in memory Of Gen.
BeRuregRrd. The streets along the line Of
march were crowded with spectators. and
the parade ground held thousands anxious
20 see the maneuvers of the troops.
On arriving at the parade ground Col.
Reilly put the regiment through several
movements in the school of the battalion,
but the crowd became 30 noisy and pressed

necessity for a city ordinance to compel
people to keep back to the walks during

much noise that the commands
of the officer could not be heard and when
the troops attempted evolutions they either
had to "break" or trample children under

the regiment in the north v est corner Of
the parade ground. and had dress parade,
which was very pretty. This concluded The

every evidence Of having been pried open
with some heavy instrument, as the staple

Mr.. Drummer had only to look around him
to discover that such had been the case, as
he saw at once that the hand OF some
marauder had invaded his office on the
night before and carried Off lot Of his

The City's Population by the Directory
for 1898.


The new City Directory puts the popula-
ton of Savannah at 81 ,S14-34, 42l white
and 27,393 colored, gain Of l, 146 during
1892. The new directory contains o 100
names, against 1854 names in 1892, a gain
of 526. These are divided as follows: II. 74g
white, 1871 colored. Last years division
was 1881 whites, S,073 colored.
Publisher Sholes in his Introductory says:
w hlle the past year has been one of gem
eFal depression throughout all the cotton
growing section, and Savannah has been
most especially affected through the
shortage OF her cotton receipts, the difficult
ties OF the Central railroad, and various
other causes, yet the returns of the direc-
tory canvass give a favorable exhibit,
and show that under all the adverse
circumstances Savannah has not only
held her own, put has advanced. In the
first canvass a larger number of vacant
houses were discovered than usual, bue the
final returns develoDed that nearly all OF
these had been occupied, and largely with
new people, and to-day there is probably
fewer vacant houses in Savannah than has
been knownin years.
The continuous change going on in a
Guys life IS a source of constant astonish-
ment to one who notes it. This years book
loses the names of 1886 people who we're
designated III the volume for 1892, while
6.4S2 people have come to take their places.

the territory bounded by East and West
Broad, Boy and Anderson streets. numbered
ALAS"
In reference to the numbering Of the
houses Mr.. Sholes SAYS:
with each volume issued during the
past fourteen years attention has been called
TO the fact that Savannah ia the worst num-
bered city in America, and as a matter of
habit the statement is again repeated. In
deed, in SO far as guiding the stranger is
concerned, no numbers would be far better
than the so-called system in certain por-
lions OF the city, for the most intelligent
Citizen, unless he knows the exact location,
can form no idea as to where U Broughton,
Q3 Liberty or P Montgomery may be
found, while the division Of numbers into
"hslveS, quarters and eighths" in all por-
lions of the city is something unknown
elsewhere. With all the other improve
ments which have been made in Savannah
during the past few years, it would aeem as
