Jerseys-A Blind Chaplain.

wheels passed over his neck. He was
unmarried.

railroad. Four have died, another is
dying, and eight are affected with
the malady. DR. Dalrymple, an expert,
has beee sent here by the agricultural
department to examine into the character
of the epidemic. He thinks it hem
orrhagic fever induced by the food they
have been eating.

chester, formerly pastor in this city,
has entered the race for chaplain of the
state Senate, the late incumbent having

the Atlantic Trust Company, claiming
SOS, ,4l006; the New York Air Brake Com
pany, claiming S52s.4O, and several other

WHY SEND NORTH FOR CLOTHES P
Better Clothes for Less Price Can Be
Had at Home.


Savannah Sept. 3O.-Editor Of the
Morning News: Is it not strange that
people here will send away for their
clothes, when they can get better at home
for less money!
Every season an army Of drummers
comes here from all parts of the country
and take away a large number Of orders,
which could be filed here with better
satisfaction to the wearers than can be
done where there is no way to try them
on These drummers all come south.
They could not do any business elsewhere.
1t is well-knOwn that first or secoDd-class
tailors never send out drummers. They
get all they can attend to at home.
The people here think they will get a
better article away from home for less
money, which is a great mistake They
don't get anything like as good. Prices
are as low here as any place in the cOun-
try, and the tailors here are as well up
in the style of garment cutting as in any
place in the world. A man can get as
good-ftting and stylish clothes here as in
any place on earth. These drummers say
they use silk lining, which is not true.
The lining is silk face and cotton back
the poorest silk at that. 1t win be in
rags after three months wear 1t costs
from 35 cents TO 80 cents per yard. while
the cheapest pure silk, fit for lining, is
from $3.50 to 50 yer yard. They could not
afford to put silk lining in cheap goods 1t
will take ~ wards to line coat. If peo-
pie here can get better value for their
money than they can get by sending
away, is it not right that they should do
so, and leave their money with those who
pay the heavy taxes for the support of
the cityl w. p. y. Il.
