Giant Electric Motors.

The increase in the use of electricity as
motive power promises to be even
greater in the next few years than it has
been in the past few. There was an ex-
traordinary rush to the Connecticut legis-
lature when that body convened last week
for electric road charters. 1T is predicted
that within a comparatively short time
all the important towns in that state will
be connected by electric railways. There
and New York by an electric railway An
electric railway to connect New York and
Philadelphia is being constructed.
The question is being asked how long
VIII it be before electricity win be used rs
a motor on the interstate railroads. 1t
may not be used on them at all, though
no one can predict with any degree of
certainty to what extent electricity will
be used as motor
Two enormous electric locomotives are
Ohio Railroad Company. Each will haul
a much heavier load than any steam loco
motive that the company has. The largest
one is fourteen feet and three inches long.
nine feet and six and three-fourth inches
wide and viii weigh ninety-fve tons. 1t
Will have maximum speed OF fifty miles
an hour, ana will draw a loaded train at
the rate of thirty miles an hour. These
two motors are designed for heavy work.
They will be used in handling heavy trains
in the tunnels Of Baltimore The use of
these electric locomotives in the Baltimore
tunnels may be the beginning OF the use
of electricity as motor on the great rail-
roads of the country.

Change the Name.

The suggestion OF Alderman Charlton
that the name of South Broad street be
changed to Oglethorpe avenue is an ex-
cellent one. Perhaps If the name were
changed the city authorities would i'm
prove the street. 1t could easily be made
a most beautiful street Several things
are needed to make it SO. Trees should
be planted where they are now missing,
both along its sides and in it's center
The unsightly poles should be removed
that now obstruct the view in the center
of the street. The old burying ground
should be turned into park and a statue
of Oglethorpe placed in it. and the street
should be paved with shells or gravel.
All of these improvements could be
made without the expenditure of a great
deal OF money. The majority of the prop
erty-holders along the street would gladly
bear their share Of the expense. The in
crease in the value Of their properties
would be far greater than the cost Of the
improvements.
It is to be hoped that the next council
Will be more interested in identifying the
city than the present one is. a few thou
sand dollars spent annually in making the
city attractive would soon put Savannah
in the front rank of the tourist places.

Haunted by Chickens.

Imagine being haunted your whole life
through by chickens" said the travelling
man, setting down his glass according
to the New York Times. "And by chicken
pie, at that of having il thrust before
you by an unalterable decree, day in and
day out. year after year, until mournful
troops of murdered feathered bipeds pass
in snosuy review before your eyes in sleep
and hObgobn chicken pies perform weird
nocturnal dances on your abdomen. Talk
about eating quail every day for a steady
diet, ! tell you these are gastronomtc lux
uries compared to chicken pie every day.
Yet there was "a man down at SmithvilIe.
Ca, who was mean enough to take this
diaboltcal revenge on his widow He kent
the railroad eating house there and when
he died he left it to his widow. with the
conditiCl in his viii of-chicken pie! She
was to have chicken pie at least once a
day, or not to have the hotel And she.
poor woman, having no other means of
livelihood, still struggles along. conscien-
uously confronting chicken pie every dav.
Her only consolation is that the guests of
the house also have TO stand chicken pie.
No one knows what actuated the man 10
put chicken pie into his will-but how he
must have hated that woman"

Mills Moving south.

The dispatch from Lowell. Mass. pub
lished in the Morning News yesterday.
relative TO the movement Of the cotton
manufacturing industry from New Eng
lard 20 the south. is very encouraging 10
the southern people. The dispatch con-
tanned the views OF number OF leading
cotton Manufacturers. and they agree that
the coarser grades OF cotton goods can be
manufactured much more cheaply in the
southern states than tn New England
They gave reasons why this is so. and
very satisfactory reasons they are. They
are the reasons that have been given in
the southern newspapers very many times
within the last few years for the belief
that she south would become the cotton
manufacturing section Of the country ia
tbe very near future.
The great cotton mills Of New England
viii not. ~ This time. abandon the towns
anu cities in which they are located. be-
cause they can suu manufacture the finer
grades Of cotton goods there at a profit.
but some. II not an. Of them win erect
mills in The south for the manufacture Of
Che coarser grades. one of them has al
ready begun the erection Of a mill III
Gadsden. Ala. and others are getting
ready TO erect mills al other places in the
south.
The outlook FOR an extraordinary in
crease in manufacturing in the south is
certainly very promising The work that
has been done by the newspapers Of the
south ina calling attention 10 the souths
advantages for cotton manufacturing has
not been without good effect. And it
should not De forgotten that with cotton
factories there will come other factories,
as we'll as immigrants and capitalists. that
viii develop the souths agricultural and
mineral resources.
In this issue Of the Morning News there
Is communication from ex-Gov. Northen,
relative to the Georgia immigrant and in
vCstment bureau. Of which he is the chief.
showing what is being done to bring immi-
grants TO this state for settlement upon
unoccupied lands. and for the develop
ment OF various industries for which there
are special facilities and advantages here.
/ There are many reasons why the people
% this and every other southern state
should be particularly grathed with the
prospect for solid prosperity in the south.
/ And Savannah ought to be making her
advantages known. as a location for cot
ton factories to the great New England
cotton mills that are preparing to estab-
/ lsh plants in the south. She has a COM
pany that has been trying to interest
northern capital in cotton manufacturing
/ here. These seems now to be a chance for
] it to succeed in its efforts.
