a LADIES' FINISHING SCHOOL.
a Magnificent Property at BeauIieu to
Be Used for This Purpose.

A Magnificent Property at BeauIieu to
Be Used for This Purpose.
The recent purchase of the residence of
Maj. A L. Hartridge, at Beaulieu, by
Rev. c. H. Strong, WILL. if the present in
tentions of the purchaser are carried out.
result in giving Savannah one of the
finest ladies finishing schools in the south.
The property is one of the handsomest
in South Georgia, and was owned by Mr..
j. B. DuckwOrth, from whom it was pur-
chased by MIR. Strong. The price paid is
understood to have been Sl2 500 The
property is one of the best known in this
section. 1t has every modern improve
ment, and almost every convenience for
the establishment of such an institution
About the only addition that would be
necessary IS the constructing of a build
ing to be used for recitation halls.
MIR. Strong says he has had several let
ters from northern people, who say they
would be glad to spend their winters in
or near Savannah could they have the
advantage for their daughters of lust
such finishing school as it is proposed
to establish. This led him to consider
alton of the matter, and the property was
purchased with this idea in view. The
main idea is TO establish a young ladies'
finishing school. 1t is to be entirely a
pupils.
The project, Mr. Strong says, cannot
be carried into effect for at least year
yet. In the meantime, he expects to go
north, where he will examine MANY of
the best schools of this kind, and where
he will arrange for the selection of a
thoroughly efficient corps of teachers.
Others will probably be interested in the
establishment of the school besides MIR.
Strong, and he will have associated with
him board of trustees. He will not give
up his church or devote any less attention
to it, but will simply have supervision
over the school, which will be in charge
of an able and efficient principal.
The main disadvantage which the loca-
tion has at present is the poor railway
schedule to Beaulieu, it taking from an
hour and quarter to an hour and half
to reach there from the city. A twenty
five minute schedule was formerly run
from Second avenue, but this has been
given up. The success of the project will
depend to great extent upon the forma-
ton of good car schedule to Beaulieu
and Montgomery.
MIR. Strong has not fully formulated his
plans for the establishments of this school,
and only general idea of it can be given
at present. 1t will be a year from next
fall before everything can be arranged
and the plan put into practical operation
The site is magnificent one for the pur-
pose for which it is intended. Mr..
Strong expects to go out to Beaulieu in
June and live there during the summer.

NAY BUY mr.. WE'LL HOUSE
II Will Probably Be the Home Of the
Commercial Club.

The Committee Has Been Considering
a Proposition to Purchase the Prop
erty, and Win Report at a Meeting
to Be Held Tuesday - The Price
Asked $50 ooo-The Action of the
Committee Has to b Ratified by the
Board Of Governors.
From all accounts the Commercial club
intends to have one Of the most elegant
and superb headquarters of any club in
the city.
The committee, consisting of Messrs.
Karow, Tiedeman and Krenson, which
was appointed at the last meeting of the
board of governors, to investigate the
several advantageous sites offered, has, it
is understood, accepted the terms offered
by Mr.. E. A. We'll for his magnificent
residence at Bull and Gordon streets,
subject, however, to the ratification of
the board of governors.
The committee having announced ready
to report a meeting of the board of gov
ernors has been called for next Tuesday
in the office of the president, Mr.. Edward
Karow. 1t is not known yet how the re-
port of the committee will be received,
but so far as can be learned it has been
very favorably considered by other mem
bers of the board.
The price to be paid for the property,
it is understood, is $4,000 but it is the
desire and intention of the members of
the club to get the best quarters possible,
and the property at that figure may be
considered very reasonable, as in all prob
ability few improvements or changes will
have to be made in order to make it suita-
bic for club apartments
So far as is known, there is little oppo-
sitiOn to this location, and it is considered
very suitable site for the club While
not in the center of the business portion
of the city it is very conveniently located.
The club, while it is called the Com
mercial Club, and will be largely patron
lied by commercial men, is to be more or
less social in its nature. conducted some
what on the plan of the OglethOrpe Club.
II the board of governors adopts the re-
port of the committee and ratifies the
purchase of the property the Commercial
Club will have one of the finest and best
appointed club houses in the south.

MAY RIDE FOR A PENNY YET.
Another Cut in Street Car Fares This
Week.

The City and Suburban to Put the
Fare on the Broughton and Haber-
sham Street Line at 3 Cents-A
General Reduction on All the City
and Suburban Lines Probable-Di-
rector Hartman Says He Means
Business.
Director J. n. Hartman, of the City
and Suburban railway, said Yesterday
that the cut to 3 cents in the fare on the
Broughton and Habersham street line
will probably be made this week.
The City and Suburban railway, he
SAID, has received no satisfactory reply
from the Electric railway to its notifCa-
ton, given in accordance with the exist
ing agreement, of the intended reduc-
ton in fares on the Broughton and
Habersham street line. Only ten days Of
the 30 days required by the agreement
have expired. The agreement, however,
was intended to apply to ThunderbOlt
fares, and not to fares within the city.
MIR Hartman said that some arrange
ment will probably be made by which the
road can give a 3 cent fare TO the city
limits without cutting the rate TO Ihun-
derbolt.
An extra car will be put on Broughton
and Habersham streets this week, and
when the reduced rate is put in effect
special effort will be made to capture
travel to and from the southeastern sec
ton of the city.
Mr. Hartman reiterated his intention
of making things warm for the other
line.
1.-THE fares will probably all be down
to 8 cents before the summer season
begins" he said, land l think
they will stay at that rate all summer.
1t is going to be a long, hot summer, no
doubt, and we want to give the people
the chance to ride cheap If our rivals
want to 20 any lower than cents we will
90 them one better every time. 1t makes
no difference to US if IL gets down to /
cent. They say that Savannah people do
not care for a small matter of cents, and
that they had as soon pay cents for
ride as cents. Our experience does
not bear this out. The increase in travel
for the three weeks after the cent fare
was put in force on the West Broad street
line amounted to over 10000 passengers.
For the three weeks previous to the re-
ductiOn the total of the travel on the
West Broad street line was something
over q 900 passengers. For the three
weeks following the reduction the total
number of passengers was over Al 900.
This increase could not have
come altogether from people who
had not been riding heretofore,
and 1t is evident to US that some of this
travel must have been drawn from our
rivals"
This street railway fight has just be-
gun" said MIR. Hartman in conclusion.
cit will probably last all summer"

BOYS FIGHT WITH KNIVES.
Two Urchins Attack Each other in
Duelistic Style.

Due1St1c style.
Johnny Harmon and Ben Stiles. two
boys about u years old, the former white
and the latter colored, attempted to carve
each other with pocketkuives at the base
ball grounds yesterday afternoon just be-
fore the close Of the game.
The boys were waiting outside with a
crowd of others in the hope of securing a
ball on a foul fly over the fence and thus
get admission to the grounds
According to the story of some of the
bystanders, Stiles stepped on Harmon's
foot. The boys quarreled. and Stiles hit
Harmon with a brick. Both boys then
drew pocket knives and assaulted each
other. Stiles received two slight cuts,
one in the left shoulder and one in the
left side Harmon's clothes were cut in
several places but the only wound he re
ceived was a slight cut in the leg.
Thinking the Stiles boy was severely
hurt, Harmon became frightened and ran
off, followed by a crowd, including sew
eral half grown and one or two grown
negroes, who threatened TO assault
him with knives and brickbats, They
were stopped, however, by gentleman
who had seen the difficulty from his seat
inside the park.
Harmon was arrested by Deputy Sheriff
WestcOtt, who turned him over to Mounted
Officer Dwyer, who sent him to the bar
racks
Stiles wounds were stitched up by DIR.
c. n Brandt. They were slight and he
was also put under arrest and taken to
the barracks.
Harmon was bonded out by friends last
night.
An alteration occurred between Mr..
Westcott and Mr.. NJ. A. Buttimer as the
result of the arrest MIR. Buttimer chal-
lenged Mr.. Westcott's right to arrest the
boys. The latter replied that he was on
the grounds to keep order and he intended
to do so, and addressed some very uncom-
plimentary remards to Mr.. Buttimer The
latter took up for young Harmon and de-
clared that there was no more reason
why he should be arrested than that the
negro boy should be arrested. The alter
cation was resumed on the way to the
barracks. Deputy Sheriff Westcott
called on two United States marshals who
were on the same car to assist him in ar
resting Mr.. Buttimer. A lively scramble
followed in which the deputy sheriff re-
ceived several blows in the face and Mr.
Buttimer was also struck several times
Policeman Neidlinger came along and
took the whole party to the barracks
where cases were made against Mr.
Westcott and Mr.. Buttimer for disorderly
conduct and fighting on the street. Both
parties were allowed to go on their own
recOgnizance.

THE CATHEDRAL SPIRES.
The Work Has Been Turned over to
the Bishop and the Committee.

The Work Has Been Turned over to
the Bishop and the Committee.
The cathedral spires have been com
pleted and the contract accepted. The
bishop, the cathedral building committee
and the supervising architect have in
spected the work of Messrs. Winton and
Burgess, who had charge of building the
cathedral spires and the other work done
on the cathedral
In addition to the new spires, the out
side of the building has been put in good
order, with the exception of painting it,
which cannot be done until the outside
plastering dries sufficiently. The venti-
lators and openings IN the towers have
been covered with metal and wire netting
TO guard against any possibility of fire.
The galvanized iron minarets have been
repaired, and the roof and other parts
put in good order.
1t is proposed to move the bell from its
present location in the southern tower to
the bell deck of the same tower 32J5 feet
higher than it is at present. This, how
ever, is not the only movement contem-
plated in this connection. A clock is to
be put in one of the spires, together with
chime of bells, which will ring the
Angelus automatically at O'Clock a. m,
IL o'clock noon and 6 o'clock p. m, and
also the De Profundis at 8 o'clock p. m
AS soon as the specifications and details
are made out the work of renoyating the
interior and frescoing of the cathedral
will be begun.
The new spires and other additions to
the building cannot be consecrated until
the entire work has been completed and
all the contracts settled. The columns
for the door jams will be placed in the

w. H. Wright, who has been regularly in
charge of the train since the beginning of
the season.
The vestibule has been running daily
except Sunday, between New York and
Jacksonville since Jan. II, and has carried
more passengers than during any previ-
Gus season. This is the first season since
1887, when the train was run
ming daily for short while as
an experiment, that the vesti bule
has been run six days in the week
Travel was light at the beginning of the
season, but during the last two months it
has been very heavy.
The travel was especially heavy during
March, when the move northward began,
the entire room aboard the train being
frequently engaged several days ahead.
Had it not been an off year for Florida
the vestibule travel would have been
heavy during the entire season.
The train will probably be run
as daily again next season, if the pros
poets for travel are good.
