A FEW WORDS
To Good pressers.

You have often made the remark that
it is a pity Savannah has not one first
class merchant tailoring establishment
where a gentleman can have nice suit
Of clothes or pair of trousers made to suit
his own fancy, where he can go aud make
a selection from hundreds of different
patterns Of the newest and latest produc-
tions where. if necessary, he can have a
garment made up in couple of days. get
a good. satisfactory fit, and not pay any
more than he would have to pay in New
York city for it. You have said again
and again that you make your money in
Savannah, and you would like to spend it
here, but you could not help yourself here
tofore; that if some one would open such
a first-class establishment in Savannah
you would be glad TO patroniZe it, etc.
Well, gentlemen, we have heard the above
remarks so often and so much that we
decided to give you just what
you want, a first-class tailoring
establishment in every respect. We have
as fine a cutter and designer as money
could procure in New York city, together
with force of tailors that turn out su-
perior work than has ever been attempted
in this city before We have as large
and as complete line of goods TO select
from as you could possibly see on this
side OF the Atlantic, and we can add, IN
conclusion, we are now fullyaprepared to
please the most fastidious or the most Sc
date in workmanship, material, trim
mings and price, and all we ask you for
the present, is to call and inspect our line
of goods before placing orders away from
home, and we assure you that we will not
alone please and surprise you, but we will
save you money. We respectfully invite
the public at large to call and inspect our
new department, assuring them that we
will take great pleasure in personally
serving them, whether they wish to
place an order or not Very respectfully,
APPEL & SCHAUL,

HAS ADVERTISED FOR BIDS.
Receiver Conner Wants to Pay For the
Tybee Road Repairs in Certificates.

Receiver Conner Wants to Pay For the
Tybee Road Repairs in Certificates.
In this mornings issue of the MORNING
News is an advertisement signed by Mr.
William Hunter, chief engineer of the
Central railroad, asking for bids for re-
pairing and restoring the Savannah and
Atlantic railroad. the work to be paid for
in receivers certificates issued on the
property, TO bear per cent. interest.
The idea of popular subscription does
not seem to the bondholders to have met
with much favor, and they think it very
doubtful that the people of Savannah will
respond literally enough TO the call to do
the work, even though they became the
purchasers of per cent. security. The
idea of the people seems TO be that the
Central railroad should repair the prop
erty, as it is the owner and tenant. and
many Of them would object to purchasing
the certificates at a time when business
is so generally dull.
For these reasons the bondholders de-
termined to arrange some other plan in
case this did not meet with popular favor.
They thought too Of asking for bids on
the work to be paid for partly in certi-
ticates and the rest in cash. Mr.. Conner
came to the conclusion that some
parties would rebuild the road
for the certificates and he instructed Mr..
Hunter to advertise for them. The only
trouble will be the placing Of the certih-
Gates, as few contractors like to have
security which cannot be marketed. 1t
is believed, however. in view of the fact
that the party who holds the certificates
will practically own the road, and that
it will be run, after it is repaired, on a
different basis, which may be paying
one, that the securities will be of full
value when the work is completed.
The call for bids specifies that they
must all be in on or before Feb. 10. 1t
states that the certificates will bear per
cent. interest and that they will consti-
tute first lien on the property. Notice
is given, however, that there is chance
of $4,000 additional certificates being is
sued on the property, which will rank
equally with those in which
the work of rebuilding the
road is paid. 1t is uncertain
whether these certificates will be issued
or not but the Central claims that the
Tybee road is indebted 10 it in that
amount for money expended in repairs
and for loss from operation, and applica
ton will be made to the court for per-
mission to issue them. Whether the
petition will be granted, however, re-
mains to be seen.

MISS JENKINS LECTURE.
It Delights Large Audience o.
George Eliot's Admirers.


George Eliot's Admirers.
A large and appreciative audience lis
tened to Miss Jenkins lecture on George
Eliot last night at Masonic hall.
Miss Jenkins prefaced her lecture with
a few remarks regarding the life of the
great author, and devoted the rest OF the
evening to the consideration of her dual
personality, the life and character given
TO her heroes and heroines compared
with her own.
Miss Jenkins read several of George
Eliot's poems and recited representative
selections from Middlemarch, The Mill
on the Floss and Silas Mariner, all of
which were highly enjoyed, reading
and reciting as she did with rapidity
and clearness that was little short of per-
lection. Her dramatization of selection
from The Mill on the Floss showed a
warmth and sincerely of feeling
Miss Jenkins has many admirers in Sa-
vannah and the end of her entertaining
lecture came too soon. The entertain
ment was under the auspices of the
Bishop Beckwith Parochial Society of
Christ church, which will give one or two
more of these DELIGHTFUL and instructive
evenings during the winter.

A MURDER IN EMANUEL.
An Unknown Negro Murdered by Two
Others Around Camp Fire.

An Unknown Negro Murdered by Two
Others Around Camp Fire.
A murder, or what purports to be moth
ing more nor less than that crime, which
was committed in Emanuel county, about
mile out from Shllmore, on the Still
more Airline railroad, about two weeks
ago, came to light Friday.
While passing the point in question a
little more than week ago theconductor
on the Stillmore Airline train noticed
three negroes around a camp fire in the
woods about a mile from Stillmore.
When he returned on his trip coming
back he noticed that there were only two
of the negroes there, but little attention
was paid TO it at the time.
A report was soon afterward carried
into the town that there was a dead man
in the locality in which these negroes had
been seen, and party, including some
railroad men, VINO had been on the train,
went out TO investigate it. Near where
the camp fire had been n revolving sight
met their eyes. The half naked body of
a negro was found in a deComposed and
rapidly decaying condition. Some
of his clothes were laying on
the ground near him and all the
pockets were turned inside out. From
the evidence of the conductor, who had
seen the men around the fire, 1t was con-
cluded that he was the only one in the
crowd who had any money in his pocket,
and they killed him in order 10 rob him
There was no clew to the dead man s
identity nor 10 the whereabouts or the
identity of his slaYers.

A CA Sc FOR UNCLE SAM.
A Negro Tries to Pass Silvered Pen.
MES for Ten Cent Pieces.

MES for Ten Cent Pieces.
Stephen Lee, colored, was convicted in
the city court yesterday of stealing sew
eral pounds of meat and some other gro
ceries from Mr.. James O'Byrne, and was
given the full limit of the law, twelve
months on the chain-gang.
A peculiar fact was brought out in the
evidence against Lee. 1t was shown that
he had bought some goods from Mr..
O'Bryne about the time the theft was
committed. The value of the goods pur-
chased was 30 cents, and it being rather
dark in the store Lee handed Mr. O'Bryne
three silvered pennies, thinking that
ne would mistake them for l0-cent pieces.
Mr.. O'Byrne was about to put them in
the cash drawer, when he noticed they
did not feel exactly right for lO-cent
pieces, and the fraud was discovered.
The pennies are poor deception for
10-cent pieces, but they might easily be
mistaken for them at a glance in the
dark.

Beggars.


An old one-armed bum" who had
begged enough money to accumulate a
very comfortable jag, was so nerved up
by his potations as to call at the city ex-
change yesterday to present his case to
the mayor and request assistance. The
mayor was not in, but the old beggar did
his best to make Clerk Rebarer's life a
burden for the time being
After having been put out of the room
several times and returning each time, a
policeman was sent for and escorted the
wanderer to the barracks, where he was
locked up on a charge of vagrancy. The
usual sentence of Sl0or three months will
probably be imposed, but it is little work
that the county is likely to get out of the
old fellow.
He stated at the city exchange that he
had been visiting Savannah off and on for
thirty-one years, and had been here two
weeks this time. He is an old roadster.
