TOOK a LOOK AT THE TRACKS.
Recorder Wilson InsDects the street
Railway Crossings.

President j. H. Johnston of the City
and Suburban railway was before Record
er Wilson yesterday morning on a charge
to have the street crossings on his lines
properly graded.
The particular charge was against the
Savannah, Thunderbolt and Isle of Hope
railroad for failure to keep it's crossings
on Habersham street in proper condition.
The hearing was rather an interesting
one. W. w. Osborne, Esq, appeared for
the street railway. Capt. Johnson had a
number of witnesses TO prove the good
condition of the tracks and crossings,
not only on the Habersham street line.
which has been rebuilt but a short time,
and is the last line built in the city. but
that the tracks and crossings on all the
lines of the City and Suburban system are
in good order and are all that city ordi-
nances require them to be-
The charge against the railway was
made by Deputy city Marshal Kelly, whom
Capt. Johnston openly accused of perse-
cution In placing on the docket for a viO-
lation of the ordinances the road whose
tracks are better kept than those of any
line in the city.
Some interesting testimony was intro
uuceu 10 snow the cOhollOn OF the cross
ings complained Of Nearly all of the wit
nesses for the railroad differed with the
deputy marshal in their views of what
a good condition for a road to be in is,
and the result was the recorder concluded
to take ride over the city and see for
himself the condition of the tracks and
crossings of the system. Capt Johnston
announced that he would submit his side
of the case on that ground.
In the afternoon Cant Johnston Mr.
Osborne and the recorder drove over the
lines and later the recorder and Alderman
Gleason, chairman of the streets and lane
committee, went over them. With the in
formation thus obtained the recorder will
render his decision this morning as TO
whether the railway has violated the or
dinances.

THE v. NJ. c. AS RECEPTION.
a Pleasant Evening For the Members
and Their Friends.


The reception at the Young Mems Christ
ian Association last night was a most sue
cessful and enjoyable affair.
The rooms were crowded with members
and their guests, who appreciated fully
the programme, which consisted of a piano
solo. by Mr.. Walter Cler; selections by a
male quartette, composed of Messrs.
Dykes, Demmond, Brooks and Keilbach; a
reading from Edward Everett Hale, by
Mr.. w. G.. Sutlive; harmonica solo, by Mr.
w. II. Moffatt; piano and violin duet, by
Messrs. J. E. Fulton. Jr.. and Walter
Cler
Rev Seaborn A. Smith made humorous
address, which was decidedly a feature
Of the evening. He made number of
witty hits on the youths who wear white
duck trousers, calling them "compro-
misses" The bloomered bicycle did not es-
cape. All of the participants received
hearty encores.
Refreshments were served by the recep-
ton committee. 1t was the general verdict
that a more pleasant evening could hardly
have been spent. The committee proposes
TO give a reception every month. Next
month 1t will give a ladies evening" to
which the lady friends of the association
will be invited.

w. p. GREEN'S CASE DISMISSED.
The Charges should Have Been Made
Against the COMPANIES.

Nr. ". T. Green, who was put on the in
formation docket for doing an insurance
business without license was discharged
by the recorder yesterday on the ground
that the case had not been properly entered
on the docket.
ar. Green claimed the right to DO bust
ness as an insurance broker under the
Nenable law without license. The ZEN
eral tax ordinance, however, requires that
every insurance company doing business
IN the city, either directly or through an
agency or broker shall be liable for the
Incense OF 500 year. 1t viii be seen that
the companies and not the agents or the
brokers' are made liable. For this reason
me use against MI Green was dismissed.
Mr. 3 Is. Adams was present to represent
the city. He informed the mayor after
ward mat, in his opinion the companies
We're liable for the license and that each
OF them could be made to pay 1t, though
under the ordinance there could be no
cram against the agent or broker. Cases
VIII probably be made at once against
each OF the companies for which Mr. Green
acts as broker.
Joe Singleton was turned over to the city
court by Recorder Wilson yesterday on
a charge Of the larceny of a pair Of shoes
from the store of d. 2. Myerson.

nurse away to the barracks at a time

go back to close the door. The complaint
will no doubt be investigated

1.-THE white SQUADRON"

In very few instances in the history
OF the stage have melodrsmatio pro
ductions lasted in public favor longer
than three or four seasons. Ono Of
these very rare instances is the great
patriotic melodrama 1.-THE White
Squadron" which Is presented this
season for the sixth conse cutive year
The artistic merit of the piece and it's
wonderful popularity, irrespective of
Its phenomenal financial success, Ger
tainly justify it's continuance. In stag
ing the piece this year the management
has m de very ex' ensive Improvements
in its general ensemble. 1t has been
rewritten go as to bring it up to date in
theme and action, and an entirely new
scenic and mechanical equipment has
been provided for it. At no time in it's
history has 1T been more creditably pre-
scented than 1t is TO-DAY. The cast IS
entirely new and made up of people
whose names are readily recogn zed as
those of leaders in the dramatic pro-
fession.
Experienced managers have found 1T
necessary and advisable to change the
casts OF their attractions almost en-
tirely each season, as actors grow to be
mechanical II they play in any one
piece too long; and, therefore, the
"ehaRemeht mas soleCteo now people
who enact their respective charac tiers
with all the vim and dash which dis
tinguished the original presentation of
this great drama. The famous trained
OK, which is the central figure Of one Of
the most noted situations ef tho play,
still fascnstes the audiences by his re-
markable docility and marvellous in
telligence. The leading members of
the cast this season are M. L. Alsop,
Randolph Murry, Frederick Julien, G..
II. Smiley, Robert Neil, Miss Anna
Barclay ana Miss Edith Julian. 1.-THE

RAPID-FIRE GUNS.

The Navy Department VIII Urge on Con
u grsss an Appropriation For Them.
WASHINGTON, Nov. In view of the
Presidents decision in the case of the
bid of the Detroit Dry Dock Company
that under existing treaties naval ves-
sells cannot be built on the great lakes,
the Navy Department will now press
upon Congress the Importance of allow
ing its estimate OF $500, 600 for the &C
Emulation Of supply OF rapid fire
rifles for the auxiliary navy. One Of
the most forcible arguments that will
be presented is the fact that Great
Britain already has a number OF small
war vessels which can be taken into
the great lakes through the Canadian
canals in time Of war.
With a proper supply of guns on
hand, however, it is argued that large
number Of magnificent American lake
steamers could be rapidly armed in an
emergency and easily overpower the
British gunboats, which are not armored
vessels. AS 1t would take several years
to make these guns the department will
ask that the appropriation desired be
made in order that the work may begin
INN ediately.
