OLD MONEY WORTH KEEPING.
More Bills Issued By Old Savannah
Banks Come to Light.

MIR. W. H. Gartelmann, young German
who came to this country about five
years ago, has valuable collection of
coins and paper money which he has been
collecting since his arrival in Savannah,
and which at the rate he is now collect
ing, will very soon be a still more valu-
able one.
In the collection are several bills of the
old Bank~of the State of Georgia ofwhich
Antony Porter was president. These
bills are of the same issue as that found
BY Mr.. Mcmillan among the old papers of
the Oglethorpe Light Infantry though of
different denominations. One is a 81 bill
and another a $40. Both are well
preserved and the name of the president
IS clear and distinct. In the collection
are also number of bills of the old Mer-
chants and Planters Bank the Planters
Sank, Farmers and Mechanics Bank, the
Timber Cutters Bank and collection of
confederate states notes of $40 and $50 de-
nominations.
Besides his collection of paper money
and coins, Mr.. Gartelmann has valuab BILE
collection Of postage stamps, the larger
part of which he collected in Europe
The collections are well worth study

that bank are dated May 10, 1856, and
are in an excellent state of preservation

A CoNvICT's COMPLAINT.
He Charges Ill-Treatment of the Pris
oners at Camp No. l.


A chain gang bird who is out at No. /
convict camp addressed a very doleful
letter to his former employer last week,
which he requested be turned over to the
MORNING News for publication He has
been in the camp for several months and
has some time yet to serve, having been
sent up for twelve months on very
serious charge.
The convict claims that he is created
like dog" and beaten daily without
cause He charges one of the guards with
being very brutal in his treatment of the
convicts and beating and kicking them
about continually on the slightest provo
cation. He says that four prisoners
nave run away from the camp, and
that the brutal treatment of the
guards was what promoted them to make
the attempt. He also complains that
the convicts do not get enough to eat. but
that they are afraid to complain for fear
OF being beaten The captain of the
guards is all right, he says, only he tells
the guards to give the prisoners -"
0The convict complains that they were
never treated so bad until one of the
guards was appointed over them.
When the committees of the two grand
Jurles were at the camp several weeks
ago they tried to learn from the convicts
something about their treatment as a
rule, but the convicts either had nothing
TO complain of or were afraid to talk
The letter OF the convict is given for what
il is worth.

A SAMPLE PLAN.
A Proposition Made to the South
western Railroad.


At the meeting of the Southwestern
directors held in Macon Friday, after
the meeting of the stockholders, com
munication from the stockholders COM
mittee consisting of Messrs. r. T. Will
son, WIG. Raoul and B. A Denmark, was
read.
This committee was appointed for the
purpose of ascertaining on what terms
the Southwestern could be admitted into
any reorganization plan that might be
formed
Shortly after the meeting at which this
committee was appointed, the communi-
cation stated, it found that parties in
terested in the floating debt of the Cen
trial and the tripartite bonds were de-
slrous of forming some plan for the pur-
chase OF the entire property and its re-
organization.
The leading member of the floating
debt syndicate says the communica-
ton, submitted TO the committee a prop
osltlon, claiming to be a suggestion from
the reorganization of the Central. includ-
ing the Southwestern, Montgomery and
Eufaula and Mobile and Girard, and
stated that with the assent of the South
western railroad to the proposition, it was
believed that a reorganization OF the
above named properties could be effected.
The proposition was. in brief, to leave

Sou thern Part of the City.
There is considerable activity in build
ing in Savannah, in spite of the dullness
OF the times. A large part of the resi-
dence building is in the southern section
of the city. Among the new residences
in course of construction are Mr.. w. J.
Llndsay's handsome residence at Aber-
corn ana Bolton streets which will be
completed early in the fall; Mr.. Lovelrs
residence on Bull street south of Ander-
son, and Mr.. J. II. Saussy's (Jr.) residence

Mr.. Sullivan has begun in the last few
days the erection of a residence for Mr.

tween Drayton and Abercorn streets. MIR.
Martin Cooley mas Just finished three
pretty dwellings, two on Whitaker street,
and one at the corner of Whitaker and
Henry, all of which will be occupied next
month. Mr.. McMillan's houses at CASTOR
and Habersham streets are about finished
and ready for occupancy. Mr. II. ID.
Stevens has about completed the remod-
cling of his residence on CASTOR street by
the addition OF third story and broad
piazzas, besides the interior improve
ments, making 1t one of the handsomest
residences in that part of thecity
a number of new houses are in course of
construction south of Anderson street on
both sides of the city. The home of the
Little Sisters of the Poor on Sixth street
is handsome edifice, and when com
pleted will be one of the most commodius
and complete buildings for the purposes
for which it is erected that there is in the
south. The walls are now finished and
the home is well toward completion.
The activity in building is not alone
confined to the southern section of the
city, though in that section, of course. is
where the most of the new residences are
being built. The beginning of work on

WE'RE THEY PROFESSIONALS
Two Thieves Try to Make Their Way
Into a Jewelry Shop.

Into Jewelry Shop.
An attempted burglary which was
thwarted night or two ago has given
rise to the idea that great deal of the
work of this kind that is being done in the
city is not done by those who are novices
in the art
The burglary in question was that of
the jewelry shop of j. Wilensky. About
midnight, or shortly after the negro
woman who sleeps over the store on JEFF
ferSon street and Broughton street lane
was awakened by some sound outside, and
saw one man on the shed in the rear of the
shop. while another was in front prying
at one of the shutters with piece OF
iron: She said she frightened them away
by throwing pitcher of water out the
window on one of them, aud from her
description of the men, they were evil
IDENTIFY professionals She said they were
white men and both had black caps
which came down over their faces, hiding
the upper part of them from view, and
that.they had on canvas shoes, presuma-
bly, with rubber bottoms, as they made no
noise when they ran off. The next morn
ing an iron bar about an inch in diameter
was found wedged between the window
and the bar which held the window in
place.
This is the same store which Abe
Smalls broke into, and this was the crime
Tor which Smalls was wanted when he shot
Detective HUMPHREYS. A great deal of the
work of this kind which has been done ia
the city recently bears the stamp of pro-
fessi9nals, and IL may be that they have
had hand in some of the work that has
been carried on so extensively in the
southern part Of the city.

AN ASSISTANT PASTOR.
One to Be Called for the Evangelical
Lutheran Church.

A large congregation was present at
the Lutheran church yesterday morning.
At congregational meeting after the
sermon il was decided to call an assistant
pastor. In taking this action, great en-
thusiasm was manifested by the member
ship, there being only six opposing votes.
This action by the Lutheran people was
highly complimentary to Rev. DR. Schaef-
fer, and fatteriug indication of his pop
ularity. DR.. Schaeffer's ministry in Sa-
vannah has been a marked success, and
his ability and faithful labors are recog-
nized and appreciated by his people. His
fine executive ability is everywhere mani
fest in the management of the affairs of
the church. His church, the members
believe, is probably the only one in the
city whose receipts exceed its expendi-
lures.
The Lutheran church of Savannah is
to be congratulated upon its past
success and its splendid prospects
