The Aldermanio Board Takes a Run
Down to Quarantine.
Yesterday Mayor McDonough, AL
dermen Wells, Cam, MCMILLAN, and
O'Brien of the aldermanio board and Messrs
Bloodworth and Sheldon of the sanitary
board and Health Officer Drummer, took \
run in the oity's tug Theckla down to the
quarantine station on a tour OF inspection.
One object Of the trip was to give the new
aldermanio and health boards some idea Of
the location and the condition and matters
generally pertaining TO the station at Fort
Pulaski.
Another and more important object Of
the trip was TO make preliminary survey
TO determine the location and arrangement
of the new superheating chamber, or disin-
fecting apparatus, now in contemplation,
and which will be put in at an early date.
City Engineer VIM, however, was unable
to accompany the party. and the survey
was postponed. Calculations will, Of course
have TO be made for the new arrangement
of the station after the work OF changing
the channel has been completed. This
change In the course Of the channel at the
quarantine station will cut Off a portion Of
the quarantine wharves. and the station
will be thrown farther back.
The sanitary board also inspected Fort
Pulaski with a view of ascertaining its
every respect equal TO any emer-
gency. DR.. White is in charge of this
station, and has everything arranged
according to the sanitary boards idea for
the comfort and care OF any passengers
who may be quarantined and held there
The board reports general satisfaction with
everything at both stations.

THE ROY AL ELUR LINE.
What en- Eminent Railroader Thinks
OF 1t.

What an Eminent Railroader Thinks
OF It.
Those who have used the Royal Blue Line be-
tween Philadelphia and New York, well know
that that line is deservedly accredited as being
the finest piece Of railroad in the country; that
its coaches are the most magnificent, and that
its trains run more smoothly and are the fastest
in the world. To those however, who have
never used the Royal Blue Line the following alb.
stract from letter written by an eminent rail
road authority to a gentleman connected with
the Reading railroad system will doubtless prove
interesting. After the usual formal greetings
the letter reads: 81 have just taken my first
ride on the Reading, having come over from
New York this morning on the l130a. m, Royal
Blue Line train and cannot refrain from con-
graduating you on being connected with SO
superb a railroad. We made mile after mile in
just fifty seconds and the train ran as smoothly
as though not exceeding ten miles per hour.
The appointments were first-class and never
had better dinner or one better served On any
dining car"
Commentator from the source whence this
came must have been particularly gratifying
to the Reading railroad officials. 1t has always
been the aim Of the present Reading manage
ment to provide the very best for its patrons
as on other portions of the system is copclu-
sive evidence of success in that direction That
the discriminating public appreciate these eff
forts, and recognize the fact that the ROYAL
Blue Line trains are as advertised the finest.
fastest and safest in the world, is evidenced
by the constantly increasing business on that
line

Decidedly shakv.

Attending hand, an uncertain step, fdgeti-
ness, indicated by restless shifting from one
place or posture to another, usually mental an
noyance at unexpected noises, are among the
Indications Of extreme nervousness. These
seem trifiing, but the health of men ana women
in this condition is decidedly shaky," liable to
be overthrow disastrously by causes which
the vigorous might defy. To fortify the nerv-
Gus system,l general vigor must, through the
medium of reinforced digestion, and the re-
newal of an impaired power of sleeping at
night, be raised to a healthful standard. A
guarantee OF this is Hostetters Stomach Bit
ters, which re-establishes digestion, bile secre-
ton and the habit OF body on a permanently
regular basis, thus renewing that bodily equili-
brium, which is followed by gain Of strength
and nerve tranquility, For kidney complaint,
rheumatism, neuralgia, and as a preventive
of the first attack or subsequent return OF ma
larial disorders, this medicine is without a
peer. Thrice daily take Wineglassful.- Id.

No. in Financial Dimculties.

A dispatch from Hinesville, Ga, Jan. 26,
stated that Mr.. s. A. Brewton was In flnan-
cial trouble and that an attachment had
been sought by his creditors. A subsequent
dispatch stated that the difficulties of Mr..
Brewton had been adjusted and that he was
continuing business. Mr. Brewton stated
yesterday that the dispatch asserting that
he was in financial difficulties, and that an
attachment against his property had been
asked for, was not correct. He said he had
not had any trouble with his creditors at
all, and that no attachment against his
property had been asked for. AS far as he
knew there was no foundation for any re-
port that his cred tors had taken steps to
collect by legal means any of their claims.

Detective Morgan has succeeded in run
ming to cover the gang of rioters which at
tackled colored church festival at Sand
fiy station several months ago and caused
the killing Of a woman and the wounding of
two men.
Peter Lawton, the last one Of the attack
ing party to be arrested, was captured yes
terday at noon by Constable Charlie Locust

Morgan, in house at Price and York street
lane. He resisted desperately and tried to
escape by jumping out Of window, but
was pulled back by Constable Locust, who
subdued HIM after q hard fought battle and
held his prisoner until Detective Morgan
arrived and took charge OF him.
Lawton is the man who opened fire on
the merrymakers in the house and shot
Jacob Waldburg and Gen. Anderson. In
returning the fire with the intention of kill
ing Lawton Waldburg killed the woman.
He Is TO he tried for murder in consequence
next week. Waldburg would have been
tried sooner but Solicitor General Fraser
was waiting for his recovery from the
wounds inflicted by Lawton. Gen. Ander
son has never fully recovered aud IL unable
to walk yet. - q
After the affair LaWton left the vicinity
of Savannah and secured a position on the
South Bound railroad. His crime seemed
TO draw him back, however, and be re-
turned TO Savannah about a week ago, TAX
ing up bis headquarters in the house of a
female friend, at Price and York street
lane. Things went along smoothly enough
until Lawton filed himself with whisky
Saturday night and beat the woman.
She determined TO get even with him, and
yesterday she notified a negro ''spotter"
that Lawton was at her house and could be
easily captured The "spottern reported to
Detective Morgan, and that officer in
structed Constable Locust to make the
arrest When the colored officer entered
the house and told Lawton he was a
prisoner a lively and exciting scene fol-
lowed. Lawton grappled with the officer,
and fought his way to the window for the
purpose Of jumping out, but just as he was
about to make the jump, Constable Locust
gathered him back into the room. LRwton
then fought like a tiger TO get away
from the laws clutches, and the
constable had TO use the butt
end of his pistol to bring his prisoner into
subsection. A messenger was sent for De-
teotive Morgan, and that officer carried
Lawton to the barracks.
The negro will probably first be tried as
an accessory TO the murder Of the woman,
as it was his attack which caused her kill
ing, and if he Q capes from that charge
then he will be tried for assault with intent
to murder Waldbury and Anderson.

PREPARING FOR TIE CONCERT.
Two Glass RehearsaIs Held Yesterday
at the Armory Hall.

at the Armory Hall.
Two class rehearsals were held yesterday
by DR.. Fl. r. Palmer, under the auspices OF
the management Of the musical festival, at
the Armory hall, one In the afternoon and
the other last night. Both we're largely at
tended, and demonstrated that there is an
abundance Of musical talent among Sa-
vannahians, and a great deal, perhaps, that
the people we're not before aware OF.
At the GLASS rehearsal last night over 100
voices participated, and under the director
ship Of DR.. Palmer considerable progress
was made though only two rehearsals have
been held. The first part Of last nights re-
hearsal was devoted to chanting, the latter
to singing. The chant, DR.. Palmer ex-
planned was talking in tina, while singing
was prolonging tones according TO given
notation. Several selections were taken and
chanted according TO his directions, and al
though part Of the class had never before
precticed some of the selections
taken up, their 10 voices were well COM
bined in the exquisite melody.
These rehearsals have brought out an
abundance OF talent, and many who take
an active interest in music attended them
both afternoon and night. DR.. Palmer is
an expert and successful conductor of musi-
cal festivals and choruses and brings in his
suggestions and hints in such catchy way
during the course of his instruction that
those who hear him never fail TO be i'm
pressed. His remarks make the instruction
interesting alike to pupil and audience.
The executive committee is specially de-
sirious that none of the singers Of the city
should miss such a chance for genuine pleas
ure aud Improvement as this occasion offers.
and for this reason the period for entering
the chorus is extended to the Wednesday
night rehearsal. All therefore who intend
to join, but have not yet done 30, are re-
quested to give in their names by or before
that time
number Of gentlemen and ladies from
Macon have signi6ed their desire to come
down to unite with our own singers at the
concerts, a fact that is a most hopeful lndi-
cation that the plan Of the committee 20
group the musical talent Of the entire state
10 future festivals is quite feasible. They
arrive in this city this morning. Friday
afternoon two numbers will be rendered by
200 children Of the public schools.
To-daY's programme is the same as that
OF Yesterday, consisting of two class re-
hesrsals at and 8 o'clock D. m. The re-
hearsals are but foretaste OF what is TO be
expected at the concerts on Thursday and
Friday and after this festival is over it is
hardly probable that those concerned will
let so pleasant and instructive an enterprise
as annual musical festivals go by the board

RAIL AND CROssTIE.

The new passenger trains now being fitted
up by the Central road for the fast schedule
will surpass anything ever put on the track
IN this part OF the country. The Central
has taken its newest passenger coaches and
is now fitting them up in elegant style for
the NANCY Hanks" schedule. There are to
be four cars IN each train and three trains
in all. The coaches are to be painted a
royal blue and trimmed in gilt. On both
sides and at each end of the coaches will be-
a splendid likeness of the original Nanov
Hanks, she OF the 2:05 gait. done In gilt.
These trains will be put on next Sunday
and will run daily, both 20 and from At
lanta.
The report that the Santa Fe system has
bought up the Memphis and Little Rock
railroad means a great deal to this section
OF the country, for IL 1t be true 10 will bring
the southern outlets into direct competition
with Mr.. Gould's lines, and probably give
them an immense amount of traffic from
the western side OF the Mississippi hereto
fore absorbed by the lines controlled by the
Gould properties. The Santa Fe Is the
largest system in the United States, COM
prising between 5000 and 0,000 miles, and
its ownership of the Memphis and Little
traffic to southern roads and southern sea-
ports.
1t seems that Judge Speer's pass is as
good on the Central road as one issued by
the superintendent Saturday he appointed
Mr.. Marion Erwin receiver of the Dover
railroad and issued him pass over his own
signature. Conductor Beetle said that it
was rather unusual but, nevertheless, it
was good for the round trip.
