FLOWERS ON THEIR GRAVES.
Grand Army Comrades Remember
the Fallen Ones.

Winfield Scott Hancock post of the
Grand Army of the Republic, decorated
the graves Of the union soldiers in Laurel
Grove cemetery yesterday afternoon.
The exercises were simple and consisted
of the reading of the ritual over the grave
of Past Post Commander Pearson of Au-
gusta Post No. @ who died in Savannah
and was buried here April 6. 1t is the Gus
tom of the Grand Army to hold it's memo
rial services over the grave Of the last
comrade TO die.
After the service, which was read by
Post Commander William Pease, the little
flag, the characteristic emblem of the
Grand Army, was placed upon each SOL
diers grave ana along with it a wreath or
bouquet of flowers. Not a grave whose
location was known was left without some
mark Of remembrance.
The grave of Comrade Davis of Beverly.
Mass. was decorated with choice flowers.
1t was by the Beverly post that the MEM
bers of w s. Hancock post were so cor
daily entertained at the time of the ma
tional encampment in Boston several years
ago.
There were few people in the cemetery
to witness the exercises, and the decora-
ton was performed unostentatiously, but
with reverent respect for the men who
gave their lives in the long and fearful
struggle.

A GOOD CHANGE FOR SAVANNAH.
The Plant Systems Change in Trains
Next sunday.

The Plant system will put a new sched-
ule into effect Sunday, which will greatly
benefit Savannah in the way of local traf-
fic. BY this schedule people living along
the line between Savannah and Waycross
can leave home after breakfast, reach sa-
vannah at sa5 a. m. spend either day
or half day in the city just as they like.
and return home without loss Of time.
Train IS which will reach Savannah at
s;i5 a. m is a through train. connecting
at Waycross for all western as well as all
Florida points. People living beyond Way
cross can take advantage of it as well as
those living nearer by. by getting up a lit
tie early in the morning. Train No. %
which formerly went only as far as Jesup
will now go on to waycross connecting
there with trains west and south. This
train will leave Savannah at 1:4O p. m.
reaching Waycross at 1855 p. m. 1t will
prove Of great advantage to the local
travel between Jesup and Waycross
The best of the changes, however is in
train No. 81, which, beginning with Sun
day. will leave Savannah at 6 p. IN. instead
OF 5.45, as formerly reaching Waycross at
$3.50 p. m. This is a through train to Tam
at S:45 a. m This will give through trip
from Savannah to Tampa in fourteen
hours and forty-fve minutes, one night
ride. There will be a through sleeper. of
course. This train makes through con-
nectons for Thomasville and all points
on the system There will be a sleeping
car for Atlanta via Triton, and one for
Montgomery via Waycross and Thomas
Vile and on to New Orleans. This will
then be the shortest route from Savannah
to New Orleans in point of time. The in
tention is to make this the train for
through travel to the west and southwest.
AT the same time It viii prove a very sat
isfactory train for Savannah's local travel.
Passengers can come into the city from
all along the line by train So arriving here
at S:45 a. m. After spending the day here
they can go out at 6 p. m. on train 81, and
reach home by bedtime, or, if they live
this side of Waycross, they will reach
home by supper time. Altogether it is a
very good schedule for Savannah, for both
local and through travel

THE BULLETS WENT AwRY.
The Rinemen win Have 10 Put Em-
hnnhmcnts RehInd Their RnnRes.

The notice given yesterday 10 the effect
that the Savannah Rife Association would
not have its regular weekly target prac-
tlce at the Avondale range was Of more
than ordinary significance. Not only was
the regular target practice OF the rife as
ISOLATION done away with for the week.
but other companies who were 10 have
had turns on the ranges have given them
up for the present
The cause OF the difficulty is that the
ranges are not az far away from habita-
lions as was at first supposed. Just after
the last practice there by one OF the mill
tary companies, Mr. George II. Miller.
whose residence is just 10 the southeast
OF the range. made complaint that some
OF the bullets landed in his yard. He asked
that the shooting be stopped, preferring
20 do this rather than to go straight into
court and ask for an injunction against
the rihemeu. The officers In charge OF the
range readily consented TO cease the tar
get practice until some Arrangement could
be made 50 that all possible danger would
be avoided.
Just after this complaint was made some
of the rinemen had considerable fun at the
expense of one of the staff officers, who
took his turn at the targets. but who left
them In g good condition, 10 is said when
he had finished as when ne began to fire
Mr.. Miller's residence is OFF some distance
from the ranges, and II was alleged that
this particular marksman's shots, through
some uuaccouutable mistake on their part
found their way into Mr. Miller's yard.
However that may be. Mr.. Miller con-
sidered the situation dangerous unless
something was done to prevent the bullets
coming In his direction. 1t is thought
some of the bullets in striking the earth
might have richochetted and gone to Mr.
Miller's yard. The officers in charge
have determined to have thrown up i'm
mediately behind the ranges embank-
ments large and long enough to stop any
bullet that may be shot in the direction
Of the targets The work of throwing up
these embankments behind the 200 and 800
yard ranges was begun yesterday, so
that there might be no possible delay, and
il is expected that the ranges will be
ready for use again within a week Thu
cost of putting up these embankments is
estimated 10 be about 500. though il may
go over this. 1t is safe to say, however
that the work will be done and the rife
men will be practcing on the ranges again
within a week.
AS soon as these embankments are
completed, the work of building the 500
and 600 yard ranges will begin at once
1t is expected to have these ready for
some practice this season. These ranges
have been well constructed. and will no
doubt be developed into the finest to be
found in the south. Savannah's mill
tary companies already have within their
ranks the finest shots in the state, and
after they have had a good chance at
this range there is no telling what they
may do.

How She Impressed the Daughter Oi

How She Impressed the Daughter OF
DIR. Gambler of Emory.
The following interesting incident illus
trative of Mrs. Cleveland's magnetism
was given in a charming little essay on
THE Women of the White House." read
by Miss Florence Gambler. daughter of
DR.. Gambler of Emory College on junior
day at Wesleyan:
zone of the sweetest memories of my
whole life is associated with the beautiful
tenderness of the present lady of the
white house. When she came south with
her husband in 1887, she spent a few days
in Nashville, Tenn, where my father was
then living. One day she held a reception
at the Maxwell hotel, and begged to be
permitted to go to see her. Finally my
grandmother consented to take me. When
we reached the hotel the great parlors
were crowded, and in my embarrass-
ment, | was about to speak to some one
else whom ! took to be Mrs. Cleveland.
The noted lady seeing the mistake that I
was about to make said: Here l am,
daughter, and drawing me to her side
kissed me. This little act changed the
whole current of my feelings, and walked
through the parlors with beaming face
and springing step, expressing my happi-
ness Mrs. Cleveland is the pure white
capstone of the finished white house. But
we could not expect to find anything but
true womanliness in the character of one
who has chosen for her companion in life
such patriotic, Christian gentleman as
Grover Cleveland"

HE Is READY TO TRY 1T.
Aid. Gleason VIII Put Down Hemn-
tfte if brought Here.


Alderman Gleason does not think hema-
tite is worth much as a paving material.
He has examined some samples of it and
has the opinion Of others who have exam
ined it. who agree with him in saying that
as a paving material it is worth little or
nothing.
one of those who has looked into the
matter is Chairman Dale Of the county
commissioners and the other is Mai. Bland
FOND. county engineer. The latter says he
would not advise the use Of hematite as he
does not consider it Of sufficient durability.
This sutn which 1 found out on the
Ogeechee road may be bog iron and it may
be hemitate," said Alderman Gleason, but
it has much the same appearance and the
same qualities as the hematite. I have eX-
amined small samples of the latter and it
brushes easily and makes the same reddish
dust as the material found on the Ogeechee
road. At the same time I am willing to
give the material a trial to satisfy the peo-
pie who think 1t is valuable. I have sta
ted to several parties who called on me in
the interest of the hematite that if they
would furnish a couple of carloads / would
put il on Drayton street where everybody
could see the result"
Did not the Central railroad offer to
transport a couple of carloads free to the
city for this purpose?" Alderman Gleason
was asked.
Not that l know Of" he replied Il
never heard of such an offer until you
made this statement this morning. Mr.. c..
b. Warrand called on me sometime ago in
the interest of the hematite. After talk
ing the matter over he said that he would
send me down couple Of carloads for an
experiment and I told him all right; that
/ would tear up the shells and put it down
in front of my place here on Drayton
street. That's the last I've heard of 1t. l
was informed that Receiver Conner wanted
to see me in reference to the hematite and
called at his office twice, but he was too
busy to see me each time. If Mr. Conner is
interested in having us try the hematite
all that is necessary for him to do is to
have a couple Of carloads shipped here and
1 will make the experiment"

of cheating and swindling and sentenced

Mills, in conjunction with some other
negro, worked what is known as the split

with cards and the unsuspecting victim
thinking he sees dot on the lucky card

attention is attracted and the cards are
changed, so that the card with the dot
on it, to all appearances like the lucky card
is nothing more nor less than a blank
Through this game Renner was swind-
led out of about $50. He snatched some of
the money away from the fakirs, however
and nearly all the rest of 1t was found on
Mills when he was arrested. Mills spent
