A Curious savannah Love story.
From the Athens GAP News.


Here's a curious story of love and court
ship. About two years ago a young gen
tleman of this city, while in Savannah
got into street car with a heavy UNI
brella under his arm. Like a great many
other careless people he held 1t at a dan
gerous angle, with the point sticking out
behind him, and ere long the car gave a
lurch and lady just behind him emitted
an ear-splitting scream. Everybody
jumped and looked, and to his horror the
young man found that the point of his
umbrella had come in contact with the
nose of the young lady seated Just be-
hind him. OF course, he apologized. or
tried, but 1t was like apologizing for mrr-
der over the body of the victim, for the
lady's nose was bleeding and she was al
most in commissions with pain. The car
was stopped at the next corner, where
there happened to be drug store, and the
young man, aided and abetted by one or
two elderly ladies, who at once took a.
lively interest in the case, helped the
young lady off and into the store and
posted of after a doctor. One was found
and the unlucky nose was soon mt in
working order, and the owner, attended
by the married ladies, was sent home in
a carriage. The young man took her ad-
cress and hunted up a mutual acouain-
lance, with whom he called the next dav

Representatives Screven and Willink
will leave tomorrow night for Atlanta to

but will doubtless be on hand at the open
ing of the legislature.
Nothing has been given out as yet of the
details Of the various local bills which it
is proposed to introduce from this coun-
ty. The representatives do not seem inclin-
ed to discuss these measures and the usual
reply is that the bills have not yet been
prepared.
1t is understood that the bills affecting
the city. in the way of commissions and
other matters. are being prepared
by Mr.. S. b. Adams. city attor-
ney, and Col. William Garrard,
chairman of the finance commit
tee of council. The bills can be introduced
any time during thsl session and IT Will
probably be some time yet before all the
local bills from Chatham county are intro
duced.
Among the bills so far advertised are a
bill to extend, widen, or open, certain
streets and lanes of the city; to straighten
pound lot; TO give the city the use and
control of the old South Broad street
cemetery as public park; TO create
commissioner of public works; to create
a board of fire commissioners; to abolish
appeals from the recorders court to the
city council; to create a park and tree

lice commissionersi to create board OF
tax assessors and receivers; to extend
the jurisdiction of the city for sanitary
purposes; to compensate election mana

elections at the court house; TO authorize
the police to make arrests within two
miles outside the city limits; TO extend t"e
jurisdiction of the recorder two miles
beyond the city limits; to fix the
date of election and time of service OF he

regulate city elections and provide for
registration books being made up alpha
betically, and to repeal the act OF 1873,
making it the duty of the county com
missioners to order elections, and regard
ing the advertising of city court sherirs
There are several other measures con-
templated, 1t is understood, but these are
all about which any notice has been given,
and II will readily be seen that they Will
make some radical changes in the city
government.

MANY THEFTs AT HIS DOOR.
Jacksonville Officers Pay Primus
Adams "a Visit.

Primus Adams. the burglar. who is re-
posing in the care OF the Savannah police
department, may be regarded as really
celebrated character in his line.
Primus only escaped from the Florida
penitentary in March. but he appears to
have been very busily engaged since that
time i'm his old line. There is little doubt
that he has committed burglaries i'm every
important city from Jacksonville TO Phil
adelphia within the last six months.
Detectives Miller and Hogan Of Charles
ton were over here last week TO see him
and obtained Information which enabled
them to recover a number of valuable ar
ticles stolen by him in Charleston recent
ly. Primus had more visitors yesterday.
Chief Of Police O'Keefe and Deputy Sher-
in Vinzant of Jacksonville spent the day
in the city for the purpose Of enjoying the
pleasure Of his company for a short while.
Prlmus did not give them very cordial
reception. He has grudge against these
two officers because they were instrument
tai in sending him up for the longest time
he has yet spent in the penitentiary of any
state. IL was ten years ago that Primus
plead guilty TO various burglaries commit
ted by him in Duval county and was sen
fenced TO twenty years in the penitenti-
airy. He served ten years and escaped last
March.
Primus told Chief McDermott that
Chief O'Keefe promised him at the time
of the Florida affair that If he would
give certain information he would only
be sentenced to FIVE years in the peni-
Tertiary. Instead he got twenty and he
still cherishes unpleasant feelings on the
subject.
A number of burglaries have been COM
mitted in Jacksonville recently and when
the Jacksonville authorities saw the &C
count Of Primus' arrest in the Morning
News they concluded that il was very
likely that he was responsible for the
burglaries there. The object of the visit
Of Chief O'Keefe and Deputy VinZant
was to obtain some information from
Primus on the subject Of these robbie
res. Primus declared, however, that he
was not in Florida at the time and that
he knew nothing of the burglaries. The
officers returned to Jacksonville last
night.
Primus served just eighteen months of
his twenty-five years sentence in Nhe
Georgia rS1itentiary, making his escape
in 1881 from a gang which was doing
drainage work on Hutchison's Island.

A DIFFERENCE IN VALUES.
A Snvannahian Finds Out About Sill
yer Money i'm Paris.

A gentleman who recently returned to
the city, after spending the sum
mer in Europe, gave Morn
ing News reporter yesterday a
very striking Illustration of the differ
euce in intrinsic value of the two classes
of Uncle Sans currency. that on a gold
basis and that on a silver basis.
When he arrived in Paris he had a small
amount of United States money left in
his possession which he wished to ex-
change for French currency. In the lot were
five silver dollars. For these he received
French money in exchange to the value
of 81 cents for each dollar For his paper
currency, however. he received French
currency in exchange to the value of
Sl.05 on the dollar, American exchange
being then at a premium of per cent.
This he explained by saying that the
paper money, being on a gold basis was
as good as gold in France, or any other
civilized country.
The silver not having a gold backing,
was only worth its market value as bull
hon. That is all il would be worth in
this country if the government did not
declare that S74A grams of silver should
pass for a dollar.

In response to a sharp whistle a White

ner Of Madison avenue and Bloom street
last night and passenger leaped lightly
into "a seat near the gripman without
waiting for the car to come to a full
stop.
simultaneously a colloquial duel in hot
progress between two elderly gentlemen
seated Immediately behind the newly ar
rived passenger came to an abrupt end,
and the stoid grlpman, who had pre-
viousy exhibited an apparently marble
like indifference to surroundings, be-
came suddenly animated with singular
interest
1t was the new passenger who caused
this change, for she was a woman, young
and pretty, and clad in complete suit
of boomers.
The suit was made of a light-gray Eng
lisn check cloth. The jacket was fash
Toned after the style Of a mans sack
coat, with patch pockets, and fitted close
~ to a well-rounded feminine figure. A
trim little waistcoat was visible beneath
the coat and closed over what was I'M

a standing collar ornamented with a
plain black tie. The boomers were not

pert trousers maker. Dark gray leg
gings met the boomers at the knee and
fastened below a pair of well-shaped lit
tie boots, with strong square heels and
ample soles that limited at pedestrian ex-
cursicns. A jaunty alpine hat perched
on well-poised head at rather a rakish
angle completed the costume of the pref
ty stranger.
Silently and with looks of shocked
amazement the two elderly gentlemen in
the car surveyed the seemingly uncon-
scious girl and the gripman handled his
levers in nervous way. But when the
bloomer girl suddenly thrust her small
hands deep into pair of pockets in her
boomers and began to whistle softly to
herself the elderly gentlemen fairly turn
ed blue with surprise, while the gripman
underwent a temporary paralysis.
At the corner of Hoffman street and
Madison avenue the girl left the car and
vanished quickly in the darkness. The eld-
erly gentlemen rode two more blocks
without interrupting the silence they had
preserved, when finally one of them ex-
claimed, with a long exhalatiOn:

to make a complimentary allusion to the
departed bloomer girl in which the word
daisy figured conspicuously.

OYSTERS IN FINE CONDITION.
The Seasons Catch Promises TO He "A
Big One.


The oyster season promises to be one of
the best known in years. So far as the
beds have been examined they are all
right, and the oysters in fine condition.
The catch this winter. from the present
outlook will be the largest ever known
all along the coast, south and north. With
in a few days the half-million bushel limit
will have been reached in the great nat
ural oyster bed off Stratford and Bridge
port Conn, according to dispatches. The
workers are making good catches right
along, and had exceeded 100000 bushels
some time ago. Half a million bushels at
an average of 23c. bushel means $4,000
which has been found on that bed by the
workers of the state since the close sea-
son ended on Sept. 10. The seasons work
was never better, and although a little
slow at first, the market has been good for
the natural growthers." On the private
beds the set is generally fine, and everyone
in the oyster raising business feels en-
couraged.
The shipment of oysters from Savannah
has come to be an important industry and
the present season promises to be one of
the most prosperous yet known.

HIS MISSION SUCCESSFUL.
Col. Testers Trip to Washington "a
satisfactory One.


It appears that Savannah is now on the
high road to obtaining what has been so
ardently desired, and for which so many
efforts have been put forth-a marble
public building But to get it Savannah
will have to wait while.
Congressman Lester has succeeded in
winning over Secretary Carlisle, and his
next effort will be to winning congress
over to making the additional appropria-
ton Doubtless the coming effort will be
attended with results more easily ac-
complished than was that expended on
the secretary. The secretary, however,
was favorable to the wishes of the Savan-
nah people, but has been guided by the
laws and statutes that ruled him IN the
matter.
Ii seems from the teIegraphic dispatches
that an amicable agreement has been
willing to wait If they are made sure of
their contract the government Is salts
fed to wait If IL can satisfy the people
of Savannah, and the people Of Savan-
nah must be satisfied to wait If they
want marble. 1t Will be case OF wait
all around but Col. Lester will probably
have very little trouble in persuading
congress to make the needed appropria-
ton when he explains the wishes of his
constituents.
the conclusion that has been reached
and he will return from Washington this
morning The proposition to allow the
contractors to go ahead and make the
first story of marble, pending the secur-
ing of an extra appropriation, was not
1t would necessitate some changes in the
plans.
