LIVING PICTURES.
A Free Exhibition to All who Take
the Time TO Look.

The most enjoyable living pictures are
those which depict health, fulIness in
the features Of those we meet in the daily
walks Of life. They are superior to all the
nudities on exhibition at various resorts
Of pleasure and pastime. There's lots OF
evidences Of perfect health and happiness
shown on the streets of Savannah, every
day, and especially in the morning at the
market, where the ladies go to purchase
their supplies.
It's almost useless to state where the
majority of these beautiful specimens Of
womanhoOd can be found. for every one
who is reading this article will say, at
once, ITS Logan's."
They are right-although these few
lines, which are a paid advertisement,
nevertheless contain interesting facts to
those who are aware of the health and de-
light which is derived from eating the good
things which are dispensed by II. Logan,
the butcher.
The fact is, Logan viii not sell inferior
meats to his customers. He must have the
best of everything. He has the most ex-
perienced butchers in his employ-the lar
gest line Of the choicest delicacies that are
procurable, and there's no wonder that
his customers are the most prominent
among Savannah's living pictures Of
health.-ad.

STANDARD BALE MEN.
savannahians Back From the Cotton
Convention.


Messrs c. S. Connerat, I. N. Fleming
and ". A Winburn. who attended the
cotton shippers convention in New Or
leans last week. returned home yester-
day morning. Mrs. George p Walker and
Miss Connerat. who were with the party.
also returned All OF the party report a
very enjoyable time in New Orleans They
were very pleasantly entertained by the
New Orleans people during the progress
Of the cow ention, and afterward witnessed
the Maril Gras festivities.
The proceedings Of the convention were
watched with interest by all interested In
the handling OF cotton. from its entrance
10 the gin house TO the time the bale is
placed on board ship at the port. As has
already been announced BY the Morning
News. the convention decided in favor Of
a standard bale. with boxed length Of
hfty-eight inches and a boxed width Of
tweHty-eight inches. with density Of not
less than twenty-five pounds TO the cubic
foot, and secured by not less than eight
steel bands.
Mr.. Connerat said that the resolution
Of the convention as to a standard bale
amount simply TO a recommendation, as
the convention, of cource. had no power to
enforce such d standard. An effort VIII be
made, he said, to have this standard en-
dorsed by all cotton exchanges, dealers,
shippers and common carriers, with the
purpose Of gradually bringing about the
adoption Of the standard recommended.
The action OF the shippers convention
will be brought to the attention OF the
convention of cotton growers, which meets
in New Orleans this month, for the pur-
pose of securing action by the growers
favorable TO this standard.

sale, and with this view of the case. the
administration was Withdrawn and the
estate taken out of the ordinary's court.
Yesterday another meeting was held and
the action of the first meeting was re-
versed, whereupon application was at once
made to the court of ordinary for letters
of administration temporary and perma-
nent.
Temporary letters were granted to Capt.
Brooks and he again has charge of the
estate
Application for letters dismissory were
filed by Charles 5. Ellis, administrator Of
the estate of Charles D. Russell. and

1T MAY BE SUPT. HAINES.
REPORTED THAT HE WILL BE
CAPT. FLEMING's SUCCESSOR.

Mr.. Haines in the City in Conference
With supt. Dunhnm-The Plan said
TO be TO Make Him superintendent
of Both the Savannah, Florida and
Western and the Brunswick and
Western With Headquarters in
savannah.
II was reported yesterday on good au-
thority that Mr.. George ". Haines. now
superintendent OF the Brunswick and
Western railroad. is to succeed Capt. R.
G. Fleming as superintendent of the sa-
vannah. Florida and Weston. and that
he viii stin continue TO be superintendent
OF the Brunswick and Western. but wiz
have his headquarters In Savannah.
The report comes from an official Of the
system high in authority. and there are
some strong indications of its correctness.
Mr.. Haines arrived in the city yesterday
at noon and was for a time in consulta-
ton with Superintendent Durham OF the
Plant system. They left the city in the
afternoon, Supt. Durham going to Flor
ida.
Mr.. Plant is now in Florida. It has been
the general opinion that some such ap-
pointment as this has been under consid-
Grafton for several days, but it is not
known just when it will come. Mr.. A. A.
Aveilhe, who is the assistant superintend-
ent of the Savannah. Florida and West
ern railroad, has been looked upon as a
probable appointee to the SUPPLEMENTARY
of this part of the system, and Mr. Haines
has also been talked of to no little ex-
tent.
1t seems from the reports started yes
terday that Mr.. Haines will be Capt
Fleming's successor. and the understand
ing Is that instead of making an ap-
pointment to fill his place as superin-
tendent of the Brunswick and Western,
he will have charge of both of these
lines in that capacity. These lines are
close together, and both work in closely
one with another, so there would be no
trouble in operating both from Savannah
Mr.. Haines has been with the Plant
lines for good many years. He was
at one time an agent for the Savannah,
Florida and Western in Florida, and was
afterward made assistant superintendent
of the Savannah, Florida and Western.
He was appointed superintendent of the
Brunswick and Western about Seven years
ago, which position he has since held.

A. H. Grower has been appointed by
Col B. W. Wrenn agent for the Plant
system lines in Paris, France. Col. Wrenn
announced some time ago that he In
tended to have an agent there for the
dissemination of advertising matter rela-
tive to this section of the
south, and the state of Florida es
pecially, but the appointment has just
been made, Mr. Grower, who is already
established in his Office in Paris, will tell
the people there of the virtues OF this
section of the United States.
Mr.. W. V. Lifsey. formerly ticket agent
for the Southern railroad at Chattanooga
Tenn, arrived in the city yesterday, and
has taken charge of the new position to
which he was appointed by Col. b.

headquarters here. Mr.. H. G. Haycraft
who formerly held that position for the
Plant system here, has gone to Tampa,
where he will he district passenger agent
