Mr.. Losey's Representations.

The second entertainment of the regu-
lar course of the Young Mems Christian
Association will be given next Thursday,
Dec. Z, at Masonic Temple, and will be an
evening of impersonations by Mr.. Fred
erick ID. Losey.
Mr.. Losey is very well known as a
special artist in his line. In fact, he may
be said to have created a new STYLE of
dramatic art. He has made monologues
out of plays that have hitherto required
many artists TO interpret them; that is,
MIR. LOsey will in turn represent both by
facial expression and intonation, the va
rious characters in the play, and in each
the representation is so perfect that the
enchanted spectator loses sight of the
reality that one man is doing all that he
sees.
This will be Mr. Losey's first appear
ance in this city, and it will give Savan-
nah an opportunity to see him at his best,
and to share in the pleasure that other
cities have experienced in hearing him
For instance, the Nashville American
says of him and his entertainment: LAS
the scenes grew in interest his wonderful
power became more evident, and the
thrilling climax found the entire audience
wrought up to the highest pitch in SYM
pathy with the reader. At the close there
was enthusiastic applause throughout the
audience"
Among the clever pieces Of work pre-
sented by Mr.. Losey are Martin Relph'
and "Oliver Twist both OF which are
finished performances, and have been
very successful wherever presented
No doubt Savannah will show its appre-
citation of this elevating and cultured
style of entertainment by large attend
anpp

THE SURVEY BEGUN.
Chief Engineer Hunter Takes a Look
at the Tybee Road.

Chief Engineer William Hunter, of the
Central railroad, went down the river
yesterday accompanied by MIR. Richard
M. Screven, assistant engineer, to begin a
survey of the Tybee railroad, in accor-
dance with the agreement between the
two receivers of the Central and the com
mittee of bondholders and property own
ers on Tybee Island, which was appointed
some time ago to see what steps could be
taken towards rebuilding the property
The receivers consented to have the sur
vey made and make a report on it to the
bondholders of the property, who will meet
Dec. IA to consider the report made. The
survey was begun Yesterday, at least the
preliminary portion of it was taken up,
but it is not known how long it will take
to finish it. 1t will probably be com
pleted, however, by the time the meeting
of the bondholders is held, Dec. IA, and
they will decide whether they want it re-
built or not.
IL is impossible to forestall the bond
holders action with regard to the matter,
though they are all known TO be favor
able to having the property repaired, or
account of the large values which will be
restored thereby to property on the
island, which is in great part valueless
without some means of transportation.
