savannah Wants to Take Sixty Men
to Atlanta.
An enthusiastic meeting of Post A of
the Travellers Protective Association, was
held yesterday afternoon at the Screven
house In the history of the organization.
there has not been such a large attend
auce and so much interest manifested.
Nearly all the leading firms of the city
were represented.
The meeting was called to order by Pres
ldent Joseph Lovenstein. The cordial in
vitation from Posts b. and +, of Atlanta,
to send a delegation to the state conven-
ton was received. Then came the subject
Of how to defray the expenses of the dele
CATION. After discussing the plans for Civ
ing an entertainment it was decided to
abandon that idea, and TO call upon the
retail and wholesale merchants for sub
scriptions.
The state conventions Of the Travellers
Protective Association are for business
purposes; travelling men exchange ideas
and suggestions. The travelling men, as a
body probably have received less help
from the public financially, then any other
organization in the city, and the retail as
well as the wholesale merchants Will be
asked to contribute. The members of the
Travellers Protective Association patron
ize the retail merchants. and send them
customers from the country for which
they receive nothing in return They now
ask for help and they expect the mer-
chants to come forward and give assist
ance.
The merchants of Augusta are going to
send over fifty delegates, and the drum
mers Of Savannah, want to send at least
sixty
All the railroads are anxious to help the
travelling men, and will give them a spe-
cial car if the merchants win give them
sufficient assistance to send large dele
cation.

A Wonderful Avenuo.

Magnolia avenue, which has been the
pride of Riverside from its founding,
nnd which has won u national reputn-
ton us boulevard, has had two de-
fects. The streets leading to it were
usually dusty and disagreeable, while
the darkness of the avenue, owing to tho
dense foliage of the oyerhanging pepper
trees, made it ~ rather dismal evening
drive. All that is at an end. 1t is now
possible to drive from the heart of town
over macadamizod streets, perfectly FREQ
from dust and mud, direct to the peer
less Magnolia avenue, and if tho drive
be taken in the evening arc lights are
encountered every 800 feet, giving
splendid illumination. When the ave.
nue. is reached, there is presented such
sight as fow, if any, towns possess.
The electric poles arc but 1874 feet apart
and from these brackets project about
three feet. From each bracket hangs n
cluster of three incandescent lights GOV
erod with n reflector, which throws the
light Oh to the driveway
AS one stands ut one end of this row
of lights but four or five Of them can be
distinguished us individual lights, the
remainder forming continuous chain
OF fire which seemingly stretches away
for untold milcS beneath the vcrdant
canopy of the arching pepper trees
Modern rs is the scene, it impresses tho
bchplder AZ III oriental fantasy worthy
of the Spanish Moors. The imagined
extent of the wOndrous chain of fire
however. Is - Il degree an optical ilu.
sion Instead of hrinf, miles in Inuutb
1t Is but little over !. mile. Instead of
there being untold thousands of lights,
one is amazed To learn that there arc
