THE ART STUDENTS SCHOOL.
Preparations For Its Opening ON
NoNember 1.

The ladies who ara promoting the art
league Of Savannah held a meeting at the
Guards armory yesterday afternoon, at
which nearly all Of the final arrangements
were made for the formal opening Of the
school
Beside several matters Of minor impor-
tance. the ladies had arranged the tuition
to be charged for the quarter, together
with the provision Of an associate men,
bership in the league, and it was mainly
to talk over these features that the meet
ing was held.
II was the general opinion that the low
rate of tuition previously decided upon
was a wise step and would have the ef-
fest rof placing the superior advantages
within the reach c1 all. The opinion was
that while the conduct Of the school would
necessitate a considerable outlay, Wnlch
would have to be met from the funds
arising from tuition. yet the rate as fixed
should remain unchanged, for the reason
that it was more probable to induce bet
ter attendance.
The associate membership feature, the
immediate object Of which Is to provide
a means whereby deserving and talented
persons may be aided, who might md II
tion, was talked over. The fact that some
OF the most promising talent is 10 be found
among those unable to pay high tuition
fees actuated the ladies to provide the as
ISOLATE membership feature. and at
very reasonable figure. However, 1t was
decided that while associate members
will have the privilege of appointing any
person of their selection to the school,
the appointee must possess the prelimi-
nary qualifications, or, in other words,
show some aptitude and talent for art.
All students who are to enter the school,
viii report to Mrs ". W. Gordon and
Mrs. William Garrard, who will be at the
Telfair Academy, Friday, Oct. 29, be
tween II and l O'Clock. Students will be
expected to produce specimens Of their
work. paintings from the round and not
from the fiat'-in order that they may be
classified for the instructor, Prof. George
Bladen Fox, who will be here TO begin
the term Nov !.
The ladies feel highly elated over the
bright outlook and contemplate continu
ing the term an additional three months,
for the benefit Of those students who
may not wish 10 relinquish the work This
may be necessary because OF the fact
that the school is 10 be extensively adver-
tised throughout the state, and visiting
students may not feel justified in coming
if the term is too short.

MAY YET TURN OUT GOLD.
A Story of Early "Finds" in the
Savannah River

The discovery of gold in the Savannah
river bottom some distance west of the
city last summer and the recent talk Of
ore found in other nearby localities has
stirred up the mining fever among a good
many who would rather dig gold out Of
the sand of the Georgia and South
Carolina lowlands than brave the terrors
of Chilkat pass and a winter in the Klon-
dixie.
DR.. Arno Knorr's discovery of gold in
the sand of the Savannah river a few
months ago resulted in mild effort on
the part of others at pan washing along
the banks of the river. but the gold didn't
pan out and the excitement among those
who tried it subsidized.
Mr.. Joshua Martin of Whgham writes
the Morning News a possible explanation
of the find" The effort of a company in
Florida to recover a trunk full of CON-
said to have been left by the spaniards
recalled 10 Mr. Martin the story
told him by his grandparents of the dis
cOvery of gold in the Savannah river dur
ing the Spanish occupation of this terri
tory. A Spanish company prospected
along the river during the colonization of
South Carolina for gold and silver, or by
dredging the bottom of the river, secured
gold in considerable quantities. The
metal was afterwards roughly coined. Be
ing invaded by enemies the Spanish chung
TO their gold, which was kept in a trunk
until they were in danger of defeat when
they threw it into the river.
Mr.. Martin says he has heard the story
often from his grandparents, who were
among the first settlers of that section
The story is told Of a fisherman, whose
hook caught into the trunk and pulled off
one of the handles.
The story of the finding of the gold by
the Spanish IS given as a possible expla-
nation Of the more recent discoveries.

One of the oldest advertisers in the

chant tailor, II Congress street, west.
Every change of season appear his an
nouncements of the latest styles of goods.
Mr.. Brady is his own buyer, going north
and making such selections as he knows
by long experience, will suit this climate
and his customers, and that are good and
fashionable. His work is always the best,
and his prices not only reasonable, but
very low when compared with goods of
the same quality and style made in New
York or elsewhere.
It will not be out of place to say some
thing about MIR. Brady personally, who
was as good a confederate soldier as he
is now a citizen and tailor He was as
conscientious and reliable then as he is
to-day He is a veteran member of the Sa-
vannah Volunteer Guards, with which
command he did duty in the early days of

Complaints Aeaainst Open Cars and
Poor Schedules.
The running Of open street cars during
the last three days and nights of continued
heavy rains has been the cause of a good
deal of vigorous kicking on the part of
them. Six cars are run on the Abercorn
and Whitaker street belt dur
ing the day. Two of those during the
rain have been open cars. Their only
recommendation is that they move. At
night when the number Of cars is reduced
the open cars are still kept on, and peo-
pie, who ride in them have to submit to
their discomforts or get out.
The time has come" growled busi-
ness man yesterday on his way down
town. "for the legislature TO take hold of
the street car lines, If the city council
won't. There is no reason why a street
car company should not be compelled to
provide at least reasonably comfortable
cars for its patrons and to run reasonable
schedules"
IN the morning. when the travel is
heaviest, no extra accommodations are
provided. For the last two days the
school children have crowded the cars in
the morning, and complaint has been
| made that extra cars were not run.
The failure 10 operate all the lines in
accordance with the ordinances granting
the railroads the use of the streets is
also causing a good deal of complaint.
The Whitaker street line, south of Sec
ond street, is not operated after 8 p. m.
The Indian street line is also shut down

WING WAN WILL HAVE TO PAY.
Sued on Account of e. Hops AIabiI-
tiles.

Wung Wah and +. Hop were badly mix
ed in suit before Justice Bevans yester-
day, the result of which was a judgment
against the former for the sum of $3.50.
The two Cinnamon were located in a
laundry at the corner of Broughton and
Habersham streets until short time ago,
when +. Hop concluded to go out of
business and return to China, which he
did. The Chinaman who remained bought
the laundry of the one who left, but did
not contract, IL seems, to assume any OF
the obligations of his departed friend.
A negro named Bob Howard had
grievance against the departed Chinaman,
on account of some apparel which it was
claimed had been damaged. He brought
suit before Justice Nathans for the
amount claimed to be due from the China
man who was then across the waters.
Still the sign, "E. Hop" continued to
float over the laundry and the officer sum-
moned the occupant of the place, Wung
Wah. to appear. This the latter did, and
on account of the fact that he could not
speak the language. 1t was taken for
granted that he was the man and a judg-
ment was accordingly rendered. The ne,
gro swore 1t is said, that the man in
court was the one TO whom he had first
given the apparel.
Robert Chan, a Chinaman who speaks
English, anu who acted as an Interpreter
appeared later, and soon had the affair
amicably settled.
