Good for Savannah.

From the Charleston News and Courier.
During the past commercial year the
trade OF Savannah amounted to S123, $780,
600, an increase of 8, 500, 900 on the bust
ness of the preceding year. Its cotton
trade shows an increase of 81, 200, 900, its
naval stores trade an increase of 81, SOC, 900.
its grocery trade an increase of $500, 600,
its retail trade an increase s., 200, 900: in
deed in every department of business
there was an increase except in the lum-
Der trade, which fell 100000 short of the
previous years business. These figures
are taken from the admirable review of
trade Of Savannah published by the

Year of universal business and financial

control the savannah people have of their
resources. With Frightening financial
skies, exceptionally fine transportation
facilities and deep water in the Savannah
river from the city across the bar. there
is no reason why Savannah's business
should not pass the Sl5O,0O0 600 mark in
the new commercial year And the more

MADMAN ON A TOWER.
An Electric Light Lineman Crazed by
a Shock 175 Feet From Earth.
From the New York Press

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 10-A man was
seen to fall down on the grating at the
top of one of the tallest electric light tow,
ers in the city soon after S o'clock this
morning. The tower stands in front of the
city hall and is 175 feet high.
Hundreds of people at once realized
that an accident had occurred and a mes
sage was telephoned the electric light
company at once Four employees soon
arrived and began to climb the big tower
IN sight of the thousands who by this
time packed the Campus Martius. Their
progress was slow, as the elevator was at
the top of the tower. A. d. Mcclellan
finally reached the top, where the
stricken man was lying frothing at the
mouth and muttering incoherently. Nc
Lellan at once recognized him as a line
man named Frederic }. French.
French was raving maniac, and when
Mcclellan tried to raise him up ne made
several attempts to bite his hands. Luck
lily Mcclellan had on pair of thick rub
Der gloves and received no serious injury,
but the bites We're almost hard enough to
break the skin. Finding that the man
was unable to help himsels Mcclellan and
another rescuer concluded to send him
down in the elevator. 1t was a ticklish
job and French made il doubly hard by
resisting and trying to bite. He sank his
teeth into the strap buekled around Nc
Lellan's waist aud had TO be watched
every minute
After long struggle they managed to
load him into the elevator, tying his wrists
to the framework so that he would be I'M
able to jump out, while the other man got
into the elevator and began lowering
away. Several men stood in the frame
work near the bottom of the tower help
ing to steady the elevator cables Once
when the elevator stuck and men went TO
release it, French made every effort 10
bite them. On reaching the bottom he
was lifted into an ambulance, all the time
swapping viciously at those near him.
AT noon the hospital people reported
that French had recovered his wits and
the physicians say he will recover from
the electric shock received. He touched
the wire with his bare hand and has
burn on the right hand and another on
his right leg TO show for it.

SATURDAY, : SEPTEMBER 8, 1894.

THE construction of electric
tramways in North America is
gradually revolutionizing the values
of real estate in the cities and
towns. There is no longer need of
budding close to the centre of the
town, or city. The tramways open.
up the outlying districts, and serve
quick and cheap transit. To the
laboring classes they are OF great
value, as it enables working men
to buy and own homes of their own.
In the close competition among
manufacturers skilled workmen are
especially needed, and these are
more easily secured if they are
aided in securing homes. The
tramways bring distant land to the
centres. Only small part of the
capital invested in these tramways
has ever received any profit. They
have been largely built on expec~
tations of future profit. In Denver,
Colorado, one electric tramway ex-
tends six miles out upon the open
prairie, while there are not twenty
houses along this twelve miles OF
frontage.
