The Lawyers Fee.

One of the funny men of the Detroit Free
Press takes this crack at Kentucky lawyers
though it applies to the whole profession in
general:
One day, when was in one OF the mountain
county seats of Kentucky dropped into the
court house to listen to a case in which one
man was suing another for the recovery of a
horse. A couple of hours after the case had
been decided met the defendant on the
street.
"Well" said to him, that fellow didn t
get your horse, did he2'
Not much, he replied but not as cheer
fully as l expected. There was a time
there" l went on, when I thought you'd
have to walk home, sure"
Yes he said, lit did look that way. but
that lawyer NV mine wuz too peart fer him.
Fine lawyer, he is.
Every good, 1 affirmed. How far do YOU
live from here?"
Ten miles, the way I've got to 60"
That ism so bad when a man has horse
to ride"
But hain't," he said, lugubriously.
why not? Didn't you just recover him?"
"Ya-a-s," he h9sitated. but had to give
him to that dern lawyer fer his fee"

THE vEsrIBULED LIMITED.
a Rolling Palace From st. Augustine
to New York.

to New York.
The flying palace from st. Augustine to
New York arrived in Savannah yesterday
afternoon over the Savannah, Florida and
Western railway at 1854 o'clock on time,
and left at 09, stopping only long enough
to change engines and train crews.
The train of six Pullman coaches, all
vestibued, was in charge of Conductor
G. F. Baker. The car Golden Gate"
headed the train next to the engine. 1t is
divided into two compartments, baggage
and smoker, the smoking apartment being
a beautiful parlor in itself
The dining car waldorf in charge of
Conductor M. Schwarz was elegantly
equipped, and the order and system about
it is not surpassed in the finest hotels. A
glance at the car and its furnishings is as
beautiful an appetite tempter as could be
desired.
The two sleepers. Belgium" and Gam
phion" next back of the dining car, afford
as palatial apartments as have ever been
seen on wheels in the south. The seats
are covered with fine Italian hair cloth,
the floors with the softest Brussels carpets,
the berth fronts are highly
polished looking glasses in them
selves, and the curtain draperies
around each section are exquisite. Each
of these cars contains twelve sections
ana Two drawing rooms. The sleeper
''Dorsing," just back of these is built on
similar style, but is in plush and contains
a state room instead of one of the draw
ting rooms.
The sixth car, "Courtier," is furnished
like the Belgium" and the "Amphion,"
but contains only eight sections, back of
which in the rear of the train is the
library and observation car.
The train stopped just long enough to
afford opportunity for a glance through
it, but it is undoubtedly as
handsome a train as has ever
been put on southern road 1t con
tains almost every modern convenience
to be found on the elegantly equipped
trains on the New York Central and
Pennsylvania railroads. 1t is as palatial
train as any traveller could desire, and
is luxury which has only recently been
afforded the people of the south. The
train was taken to Charleston via the
Charleston and Savannah railroad bv
Engineer Raymond and Conductor Motto
of that road. 1t left at 400 O'Clock yes
terday afternoon and will arrive in New
York today, without any change what
ever, In time for dinner

OYSTERS IN SLOW DEMAND.
Savannah Growers Not Gathering o
Account of Dull Times.

Savannah Growers Not Gathering n
Account of Dull Times.
The hard times in the north have affec-
ted very materially those engaged in the
oyster business. A gentleman largely in
terested in a company which controls
large oyster beds near Savannah, said to
a MORNING News reporter yesterday that
they are not harvesting any oysters this
year on account of the lack of orders.
II met some parties the other day" the
gentleman continued, from the Blue
Point country, as the South Bay near
me that the open weather they
are having in the north
has almost made the oyster a glut on the
market, and these parties are not harvest
ing to any extent
1T is time to harvest them now, is it
not2"
Yes" he replied, land most discourag-
ing to know, we cannot touch the beds
The oysters are in perfect condition, but
must remain another year, unless times
become brighter and the oyster business
picks up"
This time last season the orders for
oysters were very heavy, and shippers in
Savannah were unable to get sufficient
transportation to meet the demand.
Buyers in the north were selling so rap
idly that daily telegraphic orders were
sent here. Now it is just the reverse. No
oysters of any consequence are being har-
vested and those planted will not be
touched, but allowed to remain until the
demand springs up.
A northern buyer was in the city few
days ago with the view of sending on to
New York shipment of oysters
TO feel the market, but received
advices from his house to the effect that
they could find no market for them and
the shipment was abandoned.
The oyster beds near Savannah that
have proved successful are not over
20 feet deep and all attempts for deep
water planting have turned out disas-
trously. The oysters that are planted by
probably the largest company in the
South are not so deep but they can be
harvested with the tongs, that vary be-
tween Is and 20 feet in length and in many
cases much shorter.

EARNINGS OF BEaaARs.
The Professionals in London and Paris
Pick Up Good Living.
NORTH American Review


From the North American Review.
The professional beggar is not mod
ern innovation, by any means. Readers
of the Spectator will recall ''Scarecrow,"
the famous London beggar, who, having
disabled himself in his right leg, asked
aims all day in order to get warm sup
per at night. According to John limbs,
the 'Ruft1ers," to whom we often find
mention in the literature of the seven
teenth century, were troops of idle va
grants who infested Lincoln's Inn Fields.
They assumed the characters of MANNED
soldiers who had suffered in the great re-
bellion, and found a ready prey in the
people of fashion and quality who drove
by. Indeed, it is made clear by contem-
porary allusion in comedies that this
square was the regular haunt of bogus
cripples, who lived by mendicancy, which
they carriad on in the most bare-faced
and even intimidating manner.
1t is related that George ", when
Prince of Wales, once attended beggars'
carnival in London, incognito. He had
not been there long when the chairman,
addressing the company and pointing to
the prince, said: II call upon that ERE
gemman with a shirt for a song" The
prince, as well as he could, got excused
upon friend, who accompanied him,
ter did, amid great applause. The health
of the prince and his friend having been
drunk and duly responded to, they de-
parted in order to afford the company an
opportunity to fix their different routes
for the ensuing days business; for at that
time the professional beggars of London
used to have general meeting several
times during the year, at which they
were divided into companies, each COM
DaQV having its particular walk
In those days their earnings varied
much, some getting as much as five shil-
lings day Most of the professional beg
gars in London to-day-and their name is
legion-emanate from two or three COM
mon lodging houses. The most populous
OF these, which is known as The Dispen-
sary," supports an individual known as
a SERVER" who earns living by manu-
featuring the pathetic signboards which
the sham cripples and the bogus blind
men carry round their necks.
In Paris, as is well known, the profess
sional beggars hold regular weekly meet
lngs, at which the routes to be followed
by the members of the guild are mapped
out by standing committee. They have
an organ of their own, called the Journal
deS MendicantS, which appears twice a
week. From recent issue the following
curious advertisement is taken Wanted
TO engage cripple for seaside resort
Good references and a small deposit re-
quired." This queer announcement is ex-
planned by the fact that the proprietors
of hotels and boarding-houses at fashion
able French watering places assume that
visitors would be disposed to give aims, if
an opportunity were afforded them; and,
as they cannot very well do the begging
themselves, they engage professional beg
CARS to whom they grant permission to
solicit aims on their premises, and the
beggars, in return, pay them one-half of
their daily receipts"

NO NEGROES ALLOWED.
a Manifesto of Washington Squares
MYstic Secret Society.

AySNAS 0SGASS 1OS4cbSs
John Dixon, big, burly middle-aged
negro, called at the mayors office yester-
day and demanded police protection for
himself and family.
Dixon had with him two pieces Of sheet
iron, upon each of which was written in
large white letters the warning: mo
NEGROES ALLOWED HERE. HOHA."
Dixon said he had picked up these
signs in Washington square. He lives at
the corner Of East Broad street and
Wright street, otherwise known as Goat
Alley. Dixon said that Saturday night
while his daughter was coming
through Washington square on her way
home from the market she was attacked by
a gang of young white boys, who assault
ed her with brickbats and sticks, beat
ing her badly and robbed her Of the pack
ages she had.
Sunday night Dixon said the same gang
visited his house and battered the door
with rocks.
On coming through the square yester-
day morning he found these signs on the
side of the street. He took possession of
them at once with the intention of APP
pealing to the city authorities.
Dixon declared that he was able TO take
care of himself, but that there was
gang of boys in Washington square which
had sworn to allow no negro TO pass
through it.
The sheet iron sign boards which Dixon
exhibited attracted considerable atten-
tion among the attaches of the city ex-
change and the crowd in waiting to secure
a word with his honor The signs might
have been taken as a joke but for the
cabalistic word "HOHA" at the end of
the warning. Whether this is one of the
old kuklux signals or the name of new
Malta organization no one knew. A
young resident of the Old Fort, who hap
pened to be present, said it
was the name of an organization
of young white boys of the Wash
ington square neighborhood and that the
Interpretation of the mystic letters was
Hit One, Hit All, 4" the motto of the so
ciety. Whether this motto means to i'm
ply the impartiality with which the so
ciety distributes its favors or the bond of
union that exists among its members is
uncertain, but it is more likely the latter.
Dixon was instructed TO apply to the
police for protection, which he did.
