GETTING READY FOR SUMMER.
Sanitary Regulations to Be Strictly
Enforced From Now On.

sanitary regulations TO Dc SIfAOtAy
Enforced From Now On.
The ordinance prohibiting the upturn-
ing of the soil in the streets of the city
during the summer months goes into
effect tomorrow. On this account all
work requiring the upturning of the soil
has been pushed this month. The city
has no work of the kind on hand now, the
paving of Jefferson street having been
completed.
The City and Suburban railway has
nearly completed the RELAXING of its track
on Whitaker and Abercorn streets, and
the work will be rushed tocompletion to-
day. The street and lane force has been
giving Bay street and other streets in the
northern section of the city thorough
cleaning, which was not done before 1t
was needed, by the way. The city will,
as usual. be given thorough cleaning up
in preparationLfor the summer.
Health Officer Drummer said yesterday
that the city is in very good sanitary con-
dition to begin the long summer seige,
and he sees no reason why the health OF
the city should not be as good this sum-
mer as last, which was remarkably good.
Sanitary regulations will be strictly en-
forced and quarantine will be watched
with especial care.
with the present facilities for obtain
ing informal ion as to the health condi-
tions prevailing in all the principal ports
of the world rs said DIR. Drummer, lit is a
comparatively easy matter to keep vessels
Mailing from suspected ports under sur
veillance and to head them off before their
arrival in port"
Dr. Drummer regards the prevailing che
lera epidemic in Portugal as the most
threatening cloud upon the sanitary hori-
zon at present. The Spanish ports being
in such close proximity TO the seat of the
disease, he regards it as almost certain
that they will become infected before the
season is far advanced. This forms
threatening source of danger to
Savannah, as on account of the constant
communication between Spain and Ha
vana the likelihood of the disease reach
ing that port would then become almost
a certainty. The passenger business be-
tween Spain and Havana is very large,
large bodies of soldiers being constantly
transferred back and forth, besides a
large general passenger busipess. With
cholera in Havana DIR. Drummer thinks
that it would be a very difficult matter to
prevent its entry to this country on ac-
count of the free communication between
the Cuban and Florida ports.
What chance would Savannah have
should the cholera reach here" DIR.
Drummer was asked.
we would Suner very lIttle," he re-
piled, Science has already settled that
cholera is communicated almost entirely
by the drinking water. Should cholera
reach Savannah, our splendid supply of
artesian water would prove our saliva
ton. With our new system of water
works we are assured of a full supply of
pure drinking water for everybody. We
could handle cholera about as easily as
we handled our little smallpox epidemic
three years ago and with as little fatality.
Other cities where the conditions are diff
ferent have much more to fear from
cholera than Savannah ~

TO LEAVE THIS MORNING.
The Steamer Elliot to Make Another
Quick Trip to Bluefields.


Quick Trip to Bluefelds.
Capt Brown, of the steamer Elliot,
which leaves to-day at II o'clock for
Bluefelds, says he intends to make an
other quick trip to the Mosquito reserva-
ton and back to Savannah. He will be
back again, the weather permitting, in
about sixteen days. 1t is expected that
there will be some definite develop
ments in the reservation within the
next few weeks, as the United States
is taking a hand in the situation
though there is much complaint there
among the Americans, Capt. Brown says
about the delay which this government
seems to be working He says the com
merce there is largely in the hands of
the Americans, but so far, the British
are the only ones who seem TO have taken
any decided steps They showed at the
outset that they were going to protect
their people though Capt Brown says
there are very few Britishers in the
reservation.
Capt. Brown says the British only landed
to protect if necessary, the rights Of
British subjects, and that about all the
American man-of-war seemed to be doing
was inquiring into the cause of this action
by the British. There was much feeling,
he said, among the Americans on account
of the slowness with which this COVER n
ment seems to be acting The Nicaraguan
soldiers, he said, did not dare to land
while the San Francisco was there, but
came after that vessel left for Colon. He
says he was unable TO secure one Of the
Bluefelds papers, as he did not have an
opportunity OF going ashore.

POLITICS IN BULLOCK.
The New Court House at Statesboro
to Be an Imposing Ono.


Bulloch county is to have a new court
house. Mr.. 7. S. Morgan, Jr., returned
from Statesboro where he attended the
session Of the superior court Of Bulloch
last week. He reports that the grand
jury Endorsed the action of the ordinary
in ordering the new building to replace
the present antiquated structure.
The new court house win
be the handsomest in this section of the
state outside of Savannah. 1t will be of
red prick, two stories in hight, with a
large court room and Commodious Offices
for the county officials. Work is to begin al
once. The building of the new court
house was advocated by the democrats
and opposed by tho populists, the latter
crying economy.
There is a good deal of political talk in
Bulloch, Mr. Morgan says. The people
appear very indifferent on the score of
the gubernatOrial canvass, however, and
manifest very little interest in either
candidate. Neither Evans nor Atkinson is
regarded with any special favor, and
The course Of these two gentlemen
In disparagiug each other in their Joint
debates is very severely disapproved, as
furnishing the third party campaign ma
terlaI 10 use against whichever candidate
should be nominated, if either OF them
should be nominated. Mr.. Morgan found
a strong undercurrent of sentiment in
Bulloch in favor of Col. Rufus e. Lester
for governor, and there is no doubt. he
says, if Col. Lester should be induced TO
make the race he would carry Bull och
county solidly.
Judge Hines has made very little i'm
preston in Bulloch by his third party
speeches. He is very highly respected in
Bulloch county but the democrats
laugh at his half-hearted flop and for the
same reason the third party people are
inclined to distrust him.
The democrats of Bulloch county are
OF the rock-ribbed variety. and can be re-
ned upon to stand by the party first last
aua all the time. They are very sore.
however, on the failure Of the Democratic
congress TO hasten tariff legislation.

EoK's CRACK RIDERS.
Johnson's Manager Anxious for a
Race with Jimmie.


Race with Jimmie.
A crowd of people went out to Wheel
mems park yesterday to witness the
training of the racers. Eek had out his
string in the morning for the final spin
before his departure for the north at
noon. The men made a fine appearance
and were frequently applauded. Eek will
60 direct TO Syracuse where he will have
charge of the track at the spring meet on
May ~.
In a letter to the American Wheelman,
Eek says; Il see by the papers that Zim-
norman has issued a challenge to race
Johnston and other American riders any
distance from one TO ten miles. Last
winter Johnson challenged Zimmerman
in good faith TO race in June, but thinner
man refused to meet Johnson. Now to
show that I mean business, 1 inclose you
check for $3.50 to make match
with zimmerman this fall. johnson will
allow Zimmerman choice of track and dis
tance up to five or ten miles, johnson 10
reserve the right of naming the starting.
Now If Zimmerman is in earnest let him
cover my money, and if the racing board
will allow a sanction for such a race l
will make it match for 81 900 a side, the
winner to take 60 per cent. and the loser
30 per cent. Of the gate receipts, the
American Wheelman to appoint a referee
and be final stakeholder"
Eek says that he is in ca nest and
anxious to see the match materlalize, and
he is willing to do all in his power to
that end. He wants representative of
Zimmerman to accept It, Such race
would be of national interest, as the two
are representative riders, and the keenest
rivalry exists between them.
johnson is IN fine condition now and will
make fine showing in the spring meet
of the wheelmen on the 1lth, when he
will try for a one-mile track record.

A FAvoRITE PAsTIME.
The Naphtha Launch Becoming a
Great Source of Amusement.

The Naphtha Launch Becoming a
Great Source of Amusement.
The popularity of the naphtha launch
is on the increase in Savannah, and for
tunate are the friends of those who own
them, for there is hardly a more agree
able or delightful way of spending a day
than upon the water in one of them.
The number of them owned in Savan-
nah has increased considerably in tho
last year or two. They are easily man
aged, can go in almost any water, and are
in many instances so comfortably and
luxuriously fitted up that there is every
thing to add to the delight and pleasure
of day or two spent on one of them
while there is nothing to detract from it.
Many of the members of the Yacht
Club own them, and others are talking of
getting launches as, after one or two trips,
if they can afford it they do not want to
be without them One of the prettiest
and handsomest owned by member of
the Yacht Club is the Moselle, which be-
longs to Maj. w. A. Wilkins, of Waynes-
boro.
Among other mem bers of the club who
have launches are Messrs. George J.
Baldwin, J. A. G.. Carson, w. M. Dent,
A S. Bacon, L. T. Turner, A. C. WILLY
and F. S. Lathrop. They form quite
fleet when they are upon the water to-
gether. II is expected that there will be
some nice additions to the fleet this sum
mer and next.

Interesting Exercises by the Sunday
School.

School.
The anniversary of the Sunday school
of the First Presbyterian church last
night was largely attended. A very
pretty programme of exercises was rem
dered, the chief feature being the build
ing of the monument of Christian char
acter by the school
The exercises opened with the entry of
the children from the Sunday-school to
the professional, Fall Into Line" After
prayer by the pastor, the song, ''I Love
the Sunday School," was very prettily
sung by the little children of the primary
department.
The report of the superintendent fol-
lowed, showing the school to be in good
condition, financially and numerically.
The building of the monument was very
pretty ceremony. The first stone laid
was the foundation, the ''ROck of Ages, .
accompanied by the hymn Rock of
Ages which was sweetly sung by little
Francis Orr. The second block laid was
inscribed Christ Died for Me-" and was
accompanied by the hymn, ENTER the
Sepulchre," by the school. The third
block was Repentance" accompanied
by the hymn, Jesus is Calling. p"
The fourth block was 20 bedience.' The &C
accompanying hymn was Children May

the hymn was "God is Love" The decora-
tions Of the monument by the classes with
banners was very pretty.
The anthem praise Ye the Lord. :"
was finely rendered by the choir.
The pastor, Rev. DR. Vass, delivered an
address appropriate to the occasion upon
the importance Of the work of the Sun
day school. The Lords Prayer was

AT THE THEATER.
Mrs. Drew to Begin Her Engagement
Tomorrow Night.

Tomorrow Night.
The last engage ment of the dramatic
season is one Of note. 1t will give thea
ter-goers pleasant recollections of the
season and will close the year in a bright
and suspicious manner Recollections
still lingcr of the work of Mrs. Drew and
her excellent company in their great per-
Torrance of THE Rivals, " and their re-
turn engagement will no doubt be greeted
by a large audience of admirers of this
wonderful woman, whose artistic ability
is admitted TO be far ahead of that of any
actress who has appeared on the AmerI-
can stage for the last three-quarters of a
century.
The company has been materially
strengthened by the addition of Mrs
Mckee Rankin. Mrs. Drew appears in
"1he Jealous Wife, as Mrs. Oakley, a
character though very much similar to
her Mrs Malaprop, is one that keeps her
audiences continually in laughter. Mrs
Mckee Rankin appears rs Mrs Freelove,
a character which in the hands of any but
great artist would sink into in
significance. The jealous Wife, also
gives great latitude to the work of Mrs.
and Mr.. Sidney Drew Charles B. Hand
ford, Charles E. Werner and the other
members of the company. The fact that
the Drews during this engagement are
playing at regular prices, and being the
last event of the season will, no doubt,
fill the house tomorrow night TO witness
tho performance, 1.-The Road to Ruin"

LoYALTY To coNvIcT1oNs.

While all should be loyal to the convic-
tions Of the past, national questions are
looming up, he said, and diverse sectional
interests coming into conflict, and it is
expedient and necessary that the national
feeling be recognized as it exists to-day.
THE war was ended thirty years ago,
and it is time that sectionalism
is dead. The blood of our heroes and of
the northern heroes is the bond that has
cemented our union. National character
is an essential part of our union, but |
may be excused if / say love the south
ern character best and do love 1t best.
The character of the south needs to join
that Of the north to make a complete
national life"
1--WE can commemorate our dead, - he
said, with honest convictions, and as
each anniversary comes let US strive to
be faithful to every conviction of the
past, but let us remember, too, that the
question of our national life is settled"

Our lou Abroad.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-In a report
received at the state department from
United States Consul Jewett. at Sierra
Leone Africa, on the subject of Ameri-
can flour consumption there, the consul
says that while the standard Of living
is not high, the use of American flour
is extending, as shown by the fact that
the imports increased from 5000 barrels
in 1891, to 1850 IN 1893. He sees no
obstacles to the extension of the trade,
and thinks the prospect is good for a
large business. as all of the flour i'm
ported is American. and that the best
grades are preferred.
The United States consul at Sueyis.
Turkey, relating the subject. holds out
nc hope of present or future business, as
the people are wretchedly poor and ig-
norant, and prefer their own coarse,
h~alf-crushed meals. The transportation
difficulties also constitute a formidable
obsticle TO trade. and there are no goods
to offer in exchange.
