THE DAY IN THE COURTS.
KohIer's Unsecured Creditors File a
Bill For Receiver.

Bill For Receiver.
In the superior court yesterday Messrs.
Nicolson. and Mcclellan and w. H. Wade
filed petition for receiver for the stock
Of d. Kohler, in behalf of the unsecured
creditors. Most of the unsecured credit
ors reside in distant places, which ac-
counts perhaps for their not being heard
from before. Messrs. Garrard, Meldrim
& Newman represent the secured credit
ors, and, under their bill, Sheriff Roman
was appointed temporary receiver, and
now has charge of the stock. The case
was set for hearing tomorrow, but, on
account of Judge Falligant's illness, it is
doubtful If it will be heard at that time.
The court of ordinary convened yester-
day for the November term. Letters dis
missory were granted to Louis Trebony
administrator of the estate of Frank Ire
bony, and to Edward S. Elliott admins
traitor of the estate of Peter G. Patterson.
Letters of administration were granted
to George t. Drane on the estate of Henry
M. Drane, to w. J. Barrett, on the estate
or Michael Barrett, to John A Goette
on the estate of Joseph Lang, and to
Daniel Oppenheimer, on the estate of Sc
lena A. Oppenheimer.
The will of Mintie Graham was pro-
bated in common form.
Edward T. Mahoney filed a petition for
letters of guardianship on the estate of
Mamie Harvey, minor
Joseph Jones, colored, was committed
to Jail on warrant charging him with
lunacy.
H. c. Cunningham, executor Of the will
of Ellen Monahan, filed petition for leave
to sell real estate.
T.. IL
tate of Sarah A. Solomon, applied for let
ters dismissory.
]. E. Delannoy and A. S. Delannoy quail
flied as executors of the will of Sarah E.
M. Delannoy
The city court opened yesterday MORN
ing at 10 o'clock for the November term.
The day was devoted to the petty crimi-
nal business, and there was very little of
that on hand. In the absence of Solicitor
General w. w. Fraser Mr. Francis p.
Salas acted in that capacity pro tenn.
Charles Coleman, colored, was found
guilty on two charges of larceny from the
house and in each case was sentenced to
pay fine of $25 and costs or spend twelve
months on the chain-gang. George Rob
erts was sentenced to pay fine of so and
costs or serve twelve months for simple
larceny. Rebecca Brown was found guilty
of cheating and swindling and sentenced to
pay line or $2O or spend six months on
the chain-gang. George Jackson was fined
$40 or sentenced to spend one month on
the chain-gang for assault and battery.
Five men were before Judge Norwood
charged with vagrancy On their state
ments that they had been unable to find
work, and in consideration of the hard
times Judge Norwood decided to release
them, but he warned them not to appear
before him again, as he might have to
send them out to the gang for a term.

WAIT AND SEE THE ONLY ICEBERG
ARTISTS.
A school of Trained Arctic Sea Lions
and Seals.


There Is at least one new thing under
the sun which shines upon the tented field,
and that is Capt. Woodward's really fam
GUS and only school OF trained Alaska sea
lions and seals, which this season form
one of the exclusive and unique features
among the thousand and one attractions
Of the enormous consolidated great Adam
Forepaugh and Sell Brothers menageries,
circuses and hippodromes, to pitch their
stupendous canvases in Savannah
on Saturday, Nov. A. When
the exceedingly wild and timid ma
ture OF these strange Arctic amphibia Is
considered, coupled with the fact that they
are provided with hippers only to supply
the place of hands and feet, their perform
ances are absolutely marvellous and trench
closely upon the Incredible. That such
necessarily clumsy creatures on land have
been successfully taught to drill, pitch,
catch, play upon different musical instru-
ments, sing and initiate many other hui
man acts and arts almost surpasses be-
lief. but that they do so is incontroverti-
bly, attested by the entire press of New
York, in which city they continuously
drew big and delighted crowds all last win
ter. From the mild-eyed sagacious seal
pets TO Leo" the monster marine clown,
whose mirthful contrariness makes every
one roar, they are wonders a good deal
more than well worth seeing.

GRACEFULLY SAID.

Though the Springfield Mass) Repuo-
lican proved Itself one Of the most stead
fast Of Bryan's opponents, and fought
him desperately at every turn 1t never
ATTEMPTED TO belittle him, and never
struck a foul blow. In this respect, II
mt many of its contemporaries and al
lies to the blush. and now, with the can
dor and, we may say, gallantry' OF an
honorable foe, It doffs its hat to him as
a foeman worthy Of IT'S steel.
After stating that Mr. Bryan made a
phenomenal tour of the country. achiev-
ing n record for endurance. readiness
and placidity of temper as campaigner'
never before equalled, much less at
tempted, in all American politics, our
contemporary adds:
"And IL is only fair 70 say that the
bearing of Mr.. Bryan has been such as
70 invite and hold the popular respect
II IS possible to dissent from many OF
his opinions and yet recognize the Drill
liant. persistent, desperate fortitude that
has made his leadership pervasiye be-
vond precedent 1t was his fight. and he
has shrunk from no labors and spared
no expenditure of strength"
The Republican then expresses the con-
viotion that, out of the material at its
command the Chicago convention made
no mistake in committing its cause to
the orator that carried it by storm, and
in conclusion says:
mo other man could have led its dis
organized and clashing interests with the
same courage and untiring faith, or
directed a crude campaign TO any better
results. That the faith OF this man In
his cause has been unquestioned and I'M
falling, no one need question"
We have no quarrel with the Republi-
can over its reference to "the disor-
ganized and clashing interests of the Chi
cago convention" That is a question
Of the point of view. and the criticism
involved in the reference does not in the
least detract from the SINCERITY, the
business, and the gracefulness of its
tribute to the Democratic standard-bear-
or. William Jennings Bryan has proved
himself entitled TO receive from all fair
minded men the same recognition tbs
Republican accords him. What is more
that recognition win be forthcoming, and
the impression he has made will bear
good and abundant fruit in our politics
