A Report That Naeda ConfirmRtion

One OF the reports noatiuc around
among the politicians &C this city is
that ii costs man about $500 to get
his name on either OF the allarmauic
tickets. The office of alderman may
be worth good deal more than
that TO a thr.ry man In New o.
leans or New York hut what there is
in the office OF alderman in Savannah
to induce any man to take it. lot alone
to pay for II, is beyond comprehension.
1t is steadily becoming more difficult
to get desirable men to become cand-
dates for aldermen, and if the present
condition OF municipal politics continues
ii may become necessary TO import alder
manic candidates from other localities.
possibly from the Ogcechee.
No, We don't think II is costing really
desirable men anything to get on either
aldermanc ticket such men. who are
willing to serve as aldermen are too
scarce. 1t is not improbable that some
of those who viii be candidates viii CON
tribute something towards the campaign
expenses. If they should. it would be
their own affair What we wish 10 say
is that The office of alderman is not SO
desirable that good men are willing to
pay $500 for the privilege of being a can
didate for that office.
The Union League Club of New York
is again TO the fore, with pair OF in
cidents. Mr.. Edwin E.nsteir. sometime
republican candidate for mayor of the
city, has ceased, through resignation. to
be a member OF the club, and MIR. Henry
Clay Frick of Carnegie & Co. has been
added TO The membership Mr.. Elnste'n's
withdrawal is sequel to the blackbaling
of the late Jesse Seligman's son for the
reason that he IS Jew. The club by its
action in the seligman matter declared it
wanted no jews on its rolls AIR Einsten
retained his membership after the in
cideut only at the solicitation of the
father of young Mr.. Seugman and after
The death Of his old friend he made mp his
mind to relieve the exclusive club of one
more jew. As to the Fr.ck matter. that
is an incident because the New York
Tribune the leading republican pap-r i'm

They have in Philadelphia some street
car rules that appear rather odd to Sa-
vannahians, inasmuch as they reverse
the practices in this city. There the cars
stop on the near side Of the street cross
inss, instead of the far side. and passen-
gers enter and depart from the cars
through the front door. The adoption of
these rules was for the purpose Of giving
the conductor all the time he might
need to look after the fares The mo-

off. il everybody comes his way, and he
can control the movements Of the car

Nobody is saying anything about the
''popgun" tariff bills now and it is pretty
certain that they have been asphyxiated
by the dust in the pigeonholes TO which
they were consigned some time ago.
There is sim heard, however, some
whisperings Of an attempt to do a
little tariff tinkering when the deficiency
appropriation bin comes to be passed.
The deficiency bill is the enc that will
carry the appropriation for the collection
of the income tax, and which it is ex-
peeted both Senator Quay and Senator
HUI will attack. The suggestion is that
free sugar rider be hooked on to the
bin and dragged through along with the
income tax appropriation. 1t is, however,
doubtful if that scheme would Nvork.

see to it that the rider was knocked CT.

POLITE AS CHESTERFIELD
Early Morning Call of a COlored Burg
lar in Young LadY'S Room.
To Her Calm Questioning He Replies
With Regrets to Have Awakened
Her, and Takes His Departure.

A large, well-dressed colored man was
trying to open the bureau when Miss
Geddes, who lives on Fourteenth street
northwest, woke from her early morning
nap yesterday. She and her younger
sister had not been feeling well and were
still asleep, while the rest Of the family
were at breakfast
The Sudden shock of Seeing a cOiOred
man in her Room attempting a robbery was
enough to maxi a woman scream. But no
SCREAM followed. In a quiet composed
tone she asked the man what lie wanted
The negro started, and. lifting his nat
Che wore brown derby and a brown suit
OF clothes1 b. said, very politely
Why, lady, did | wake you up?''
Upon her Interrogation being repeated,
be said that he was looking for Helen May,
a large, stout cOlOred woman
Miss Geddes told him there was nobody in
the house of that name. He hesitated a
little, suggested that he had gotten into
the wrong house, aud then very coOlIy and
deliberately walked out OF The door
As soon as he struck The stairs he started
on ruu.
All this time Miss Geddes thought that
possibly he had made mistake about the
house, but when she heard him ruu she
called to her sister. who was in the par
lor, to find out what that man wanted.
He repeated his story 10 the sister, and theI
ran out of the house.
The man was about five feet nine OF ten
inches in height, and weighed about $50
or $50 pounds, according to Miss tieddes'
description He was very neatly dressed,
and was a rather light cOlored negro.
No trace of him has been found.
