Maj Blandford's official report of the
work of the storm in damaging the

details and shows what class of work is
best prepared to resist the force of the
elements. He shows that the work of
repairing the damage has been progress

in shape again.
The Vale Royal system of drains and
all other canals and bitches west of the
city have been cleaned out since the
storm. Casey, DeRenne and Hampstead
canals will have to be cleaned out. and
gangs are now working on them. About
half mile of Harmon canal has been
cleaned out, but work on this has been
suspended until all the canals near the
city have been thoroughly cleaned.

Work On the Telephone Lines to Tybee
and Quarantine May Begin Soon.
Manager Polk of the telephone OK
change has just made his report to head
quarters of the condition of the lines to
Tybee Island and the quarantine station.
He made personal and extended ex-
animation of the lines, going from Thun-
derbolt around through ST. Augustine
creek About one mile Of the line near
the city is entirely gone, and only few
of the poles can be recovered. From St.
Augustine creek there is about one mile
standing and down that can be recovered.
and beyond that the line is irreparably
broken down and carried away for a dis
lance of eight miles or more On Tybce
Island the poles are down to the light
house.
The cable which ran across from the
railroad to Long Island at the quarantine
station was raised from the bottom BY a
lot Of drift wood and the tug Maud tan
gled about $50 feet of it in her propeller.
The lines to quarantine and Tybee are
put up on the same poles and one cannot
be put up until the other is fixed. Mr.
Polk thinks that the company will act ia
vOrably on his suggestions and order that
the lines be replaced at once These
lines are very important to the people of
Savannah and it is TO be hoped that the
mpany will order work to be begun on
them at an early date.

Two Bulloch Men Arrested For Vari-
ETY. of Offenses.

James A. and Lewis Jackson, two white
men from the upper part of Bulloch
county, are confined in Jail here under
serious charges James jackson is
charged with assault with intent to muir
der, and Lewis jackson is charged with
seduction and misdemeanor.
A reward of $3.50 each was recently
offered for the mems capture by Gov
NOrthen The sheriff of BullOch county
started out with a posse three or four
weeks ago to arrest the Lewis men.
The posse found the men they were
seeking, but they did not secure them
Their reception was so warm that some
of the posse barely escaped with their
lives, and the men whom they came after
had ample time to escape.
A second attempt at their capture was
more successful, however, and the two
Lewises were arrested about a week ago
while crossing the bridge over Skulls
creek, the dividing line between Bulloch
and Emanuel counties. They were
brought TO Savannah and lodged in Jail
here for safe keeping. Their trial will
take place IN Statesboro in the fourth
week in October

Bryan County Grand Jury.
Henry Gordon, the negro who killed
John Drayton in row in Bryan county
some days ago, was committed to Jail

the time of his trial in the Bryan county
court arrives
The row in which Drayton was killed
occurred near the place of William
Pritchard, in Bryan county, which is
just across the river from the saloon
which is kept by Bailey Carpenter, in
Chatham county.
The negroes are said to have been drunk
at the time, and this was one of the argu-
ments used before the commissioners
yesterday when the revoca ton OF Carpen-
ter's license was asked. One of the wit
nesses who appeared before the commits
sioners said the negroes had become
intoxicated on liquor that they had OBJ
tanned at that saloon.

An Appeal for Work.

An unusual case of distress seeming
ly one worthy of relief-comes from Mont
gomery. A man and his family are said
to be in destitute condition there, be-
ing almost entirely without clothing or
food. The man was formerly employed in
Savannah in a good position, but met
with reverses which left him penniless.
He and his family are vouched for by those
who know them as worthy people. What
the man wants is work by which he can
support his wife and children, and he ap-
peais to those who have employment in
any humble way TO aid him.

Judge FaIIigant Allowed the Brewer
Case to be Settled.

In regard to the case of the negro
Brewer who was sent to jail on a charge
of assault with inten to murder about
which some complaint hasibeen made on ac-
count of the fact that the case against him
was settled, Acting Solicitor Salas says
that the woman who prosecuted Brewer
made application, in due form withdraw
ing the prosecution and that the case was
considered in open court where an order
was taken allowing the case to be set
tied.
The second time that he was sent to
Jail it was on the same charge, and he
was discharged on account Of the fact
that that case had been settled and dis

ever settled except those of personal vio-
lence, and those only where the prose-

dismissed, 1t then goes before Judge

settlement can be legal.

In speaking of the convict labor, Mai

labor with free labor, if we assume
that the convict labor is % per cent. less
valuable than the free labor, and take
the rates for free labor at 81 per day for
able-bodled men and 10 cents per day for
boys, women and children and men with
physical defects, then the value to the
county for the men is IS cents and for the
boys, women, etc, 30 cents. Taking the
monthly average as above for the last six
months, leaving out the sick and
counting twenty-six working DAYS
to the month, then the labor Of
