The Cumberland Route has been
making some appreciated improve
ments at st. Simon. A neat awning
has been built over Ocean pier, which
proves a great benefit to travellers.
Two street cars have been added to
those already in use on the island
road, and all the cars have been fitted
with news wheels, and generally over

to make the service as perfect as pos
sible, which should be appreciated by
the public.

Chattanooga, July 2-The situation
in the east Tennessee and southern

idly becoming serious. There are
now 1000 idle men in the Jellico dis
trict and nearly the same number idle
at the mine of the Cincinnati South
ern railroad, They struck May and
have done no work since. Most of
them have no money saved, and are
now suffering for the necessities of
life, All efforts to settle the strike
have proved unavailing, and it is now
admitted that none of the mines can
be operated for several months.

one of the most charitable and thor

ments was given the Scandinavian sailors
in port Wednesday night at the rooms of
the Fort Society. There were about two
hundred sailors present, who were treated
to a splendid repast and delightful music
and singing Several speeches were made
by the visitors. The rooms were lastly
decorated for the occasion, and altogether
the affair was one which the sailors hign-
Nv appreciated, and wiz long remember.
To the Efforts of Mrs. Chr. G. Dahl AMI
Mrs. Jonas G. Andersen is due the sue

THE TENNESSEE CENTENNIAL.
Vice President INtrkman Gives Some
Interesting Points About 1t.

u
Messrs Van Lear Kirkman, ]. NJ. Head
and I. w. Wrenne of Nashville. are regis
tered at the De Soto. These gentlemen are
all interested in the Electric railway prop
erty, which is to be sold at public outcry
before the office at Gwinnett and Price
streets Jan. 5. and are here on that ac-
count.
Mr.. Kirkman is the first vice-president
of the Tennessee Centennial Exposition,
which is to open at Nashville, May l, and
both of the other gentlemen are directors
MIR. Kirkman gives some interesting in
formation about the centennial which is
to be one of the largest undertakings of
this kind the south has ever seen, and
moreover it is going to be held particularly
for the benefit and advancement of the
southern states though it will be interua-
tional in its scope.
The company, Mr.. Kirkman says, has al
ready had subscribed in cash $500. 900 of the
$4,000 needed for it to complete it's part
of the work, and open the gates of the
centennial free from debt. Another $4,000
will be expended by states private exhibit
tors and others who will put up buildings
for themselves 1t is going to be a white
city, just as was the Columbian exposition
at OulSdSO, anu Ill beauty the BfOuHuS anu
buildings will be equal to anything of the
kind the country has ever seen.
A most remarkable feature is that there
have been applications for just twice as
much space by the exhibitors as the COM
pany has provided. This gives the COM
pany the opportunity to select the best
and most attractive exhibits. From each
exhibitor the deposit of certified check
depending on the size of his space has
beel required as a guarantee that his eX-
hibit will be on the grounds and in place
by April 20.
Mr.. Kirkman has seen some of the mill
tary men since he has been here with a
view to getting some of the Savannah
troops to Nashville during the Centennial
to go into an encampment. The Tonnes
see. Kentucky, Missouri and Illinois
state troops will all hold their regular en-
campmerts there, and many militiamen
from other states will go into encamp-
ment there, the idea being to keep a camp
of military there during the entire prog
ress of the exposition.
Georgia will have a first-class exhibit,
it being that which was seen at the Cot
ton States and International Exposition,
it was found that there was no fund avail
able for the purpose of transporting the
exhibit from Atlanta to Nashville, Presi-
dent ]. W. Thomas of the Nashville, Chat
tanooga and st. Louis railroad, who is
also president of the Tennessee Centen-
NAL, agreed to transport it free of cost
and his kind offer has been accepted by
Gov. Atkinson. There is no doubt that
every Georgian who has an opportunity to
do so will go to Nashville and see this ex-
position.

A MOVING STAIRWAY.
Trial of a New Form of Lift on the
Brooklyn Bridge.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
New York, Dec. 30.-A moving stairway
was tried at the New York terminus of
the Brooklyn bridge to-day. 1t is a floor
ing that extends from the street level to
the first platform, between the street and
railroad platform, on an incline of 25 de-
grees, and constantly moves upward.
When one wants to go upstairs, he need
only step aboard, grasp the moving hand
rail and step off when the top is reached.
The experiment was successful. Thou
sands of persons used the stairway, on
which there were some very amusing
scenes. Some persons who carried bum
dies did not get the right hand olsen
gagged in time to grasp the railing, be-
fore they found themselves moving for
ward and upward.
Absent-mlnded men neglected to heed
the warning shouted at them Take hold
of the raiingl' These thought they
were about TO fall but they did not. There
were somt who could not refrain from
walking, and they were surprised to find
themselves coming into collision with
those who stood I'm front Of them.
If the stairway continues to do it's work
satisfactorily others will be set up on both
sides of the bridge.

a Physician Tells of the Evil Results
of Some Big Firecrackers.
The Christmas holidays have increased
the business of the physicians and sur
geons to no small extent. There has not
been any serious sickness, but the usual
amount of colds and slight disorders has
been contracted, and the Improvement in
explosive fireworks has been responsible
for any number of burns, scars and
wounds of various kinds.
I'VE have been kept on the run for sew
eral days." said a weil-known physician,
speaking of the matter. Il have no hes
itation at all in saying that these big fire.
crackers are dangerous. AS the result of
their use 1 have had to amputate two
hands, patch up others that were lacerated,
and doctor any amount of burns. Only
the doctors have any idea of the amount
of damage that has been done to boys
and children by these cannon crackers. 1t
seems that stronger explosives are being
put into them for the sake of making a
louder noise, and with the improvement,
the danger is increased.
There is another thing to be considered
in connection with these firecrackers.
Suppose my horse is tied somewhere in
the southern part of the city while l am
out on call, and a boy throws down a
firecracken from which the horse takes
fright and breaks my buggy all to pieces,
who is to pay for the damage? 1t appears
to me there should be some responsible
ity somewhere and do not well see where
it could be placed except on the city which
allows these firecrackers to be fired"
