Wreck of IA Shoe FIRMS Plate Glass
by u Furniture Dealers Horse.
A horse got into a window on Brought
ton street yesterday afternoon, and the
results were pretty much what might be
expected if the old saying should come
to pass and a bull should get into a
crockery store. The demolition of the
window was complete, nor did the horse
get off scathless.
The window was large plate glass in
Charles Marks shoe store. The horse be-
longs to the furniture establishment of
w. K. Wimpy, across the street, and was
standing in front of the store hitched to
a light cart. Some one passed too near
him with an open umbrella. The animal
did not like the looks of it. 1t was brought
close TO his head, and he Immediately lost
that portion of his anatomical make up.
With a snort of equine fear, he proceeded
10 get out of the neighborhood of the
umbrella.
With a totel disregard for the rights of
pedestrians and the ordinances of the city
that commands horses to keep Off the side
walks, the animal disdained the use of
his usual thoroughfare and started direct
ly across the street. He went in a hurry,
his desire 90 get away from the umbrella
being readily apparent. His scollision
with the window was like that of two
freight trains.
The glass flew In all directions and the
horse went on into the window. When
he scrambled out his head was In a pretty
bad fix. the glass having gotten in its
work while he was showing through 1t.
The shoes IN the window Jared about az
badly as the horse, being battered IN
by the hoofs and the shower of glass

to he Decided on To-day.
The annual meeting of subscribers to the
Savannah freight bureau will be held to-
day at noon, The meeting will settle the
doubts that have been entertained of the
bureau remaining in existence for another
year. go,
Just what course will be pursued at the
meeting for the continuance of the bureau
could not be learned last night but it Is
said that the board of directors will make
a recommendation to the subscribers that
it be continued. In the event it may be
regarded as. unnecessary to even submit
such recommendation the bureau will
by the expiration of the time of all its con-
tracts, cease its existence Dec. 81.
A committee of the directors has been 60
ing the rounds for the last few days, solic-
iting renewed subscriptions. 1t is said the
committee has met with success, and that
enough has been secured to justify the
continuance of the bureau without fear of
financial troubles. One of the committee
men said yesterday that of those he has
approached only three have refused to
subscribe for it's support. Two refused on
account of objection to the organiza ton
The third, who, as are also the others. is
now a subscriber, stated that he favored
the bureau, and that he was only prevent
ed from giving in his name because of a
change in his financial condition. A con-
siderable number subscribed larger sums
than last year, some even doubling their
subscriptions.
President w. w. Gordon said that he
does not know conclusively what the ac-
ton of the meeting to-day will be- He be-
lieves that the subscribers will, however
decide upon the continuance of the bureau
Col. Gordon thinks the organization has
been of great aid to the commercial inter-
est of the city, and it is his desire to see
1t conducted for another year.
The report of Capt. d. G. Purse, com
missioner of the bureau, covering the
time during which he has filed that posi-
ton, will be rendered. The terms of office
of the present board of directors having
expired. a new board will be elected

enntal Encampment.
A trip for the First Battalion of the Uni
form Rank of the Knights of Pythias is
talked of. If it is found TO be feasible,
there is no doubt that the members would
| greatly enjoy it, They win have a long
| time for its contemplation In case they de-
| eide to make it, for it will not be until
next August that they will go.
indianapolis is the Mecca toward which
| some of the officers of the battalion are
now turning their thoughts. There will
be an encampment of the entire uniform
rank there in August, and it is hoped that
the trip may be regarded with favor by
the Savannah companies.
meeting of the officers of the battal-
ion will be held next week, and the trip
will then be discussed. The meeting Is
held long time in advance of the time
set for the encampment, but this is on ac-
count of the extent of the trip and in or
der to allow the men plenty of time to
make preparations in case they decide to
go. These encampments are held bien-
nially, and they are events of vast import
ance in Pythianism of the uniform rank.
The companies will begin their drill sea-
son this month. During the summer
months the drills are discontinued, being
resumed as soon as the cooler weather be-
gins. Drills are held once a week. The
companies will try TO arrange to have a
han to drill in this season. Drilling in the
street is sometimes found to be very in
| convenient and uncomfortable. Steps are
now being made to secure one of the large
halls for drill nights.
A new company for the uniform rank Is
talked Of Some time ago there were

committee was getting up. The requisite
number is only twenty-one. When that

Its Choice OF y memorial.
The designs for the memorial window in
Christ's church, now being repaired from
the recent damage by fire are on exhibit
ton at the rectory. They are being view
ed by the members of the church, who call

The building committee desired to make
no mistakes in the selection of the memoir

to a unique method of arriving at the ex-
pressed will of the greater number of the
members. Each member calls al the rec

casts a vote for the one which best strikes
his fancy. By this means the COMMITTEES
hopes to relegate the decision of the kind
of window to the congregation. 1t is IN
derstood that the design which meets the
most favor is that of ''Hoffman's Ascen-

Every farmer who burns wood even
partially for heating and cooking
should as early in the winter as posi-
Bile cut and pile enough wood to last u
whole year. This will save many COM
plants during the summer, and be
much easier done now than iu warm
weather. Besides, dry wood burns
without the waste of the heat, always
lost in turning its sap into steam.
When using green wood, chips and
small limbs will dry out more quickly
