Why Do Theyf

Why do men live in boarding house
when Halligan is at hand? A room can
be engaged, meals obtained at Ha1ligans
and money saved. Halligan's, too, has
so many advantages over the ordinary
boarding house. The table is more va
ried, the cooking better and the service
far superior. Besides, Halligan's is open
day and night and his attractive dining
room is cheerful, cool and inviting. Halli-
gan gives more for the money than any
one else in the city. His nearness to the
market enables him to get everything
fresh and desirable He serves all the ear
ly spring fruits and vegetables when they
first come to market and not after they
are in abundance. Halligan does every
thing for your comfort and satisfaction
and all that Is necessary to complete hap
piness is to go to his restaurant and abide
there,-ad.

TWO MOTIONS ARGUED.
Appeals for "A New Trial for Maurice
Sullivan and Simon O'NeiII.


sullivan and Simon 0'NeiII.
The greater part of the day in the SUI
perior court was taken up yesterday with
the arguments on the motion for new
trial. in the case of Sullivan and ONeill,
who were convicted of manslaughter al
their trial on the charge of the murder of
Preston Brooks, and sentenced to fifteen
years each in the penitentiary. The OPEN
ing arguments were made by Judge H. D.
D. TwiESs and Mr.. F. M Oliver, after
which Solicitor General w. w. Osborne
spoke for the state. and Mr.. T. S. Morgan,
Jr., concluded for the defense. The argn-
ment was quite an extended one, and at
their conclusion Judge Falligant took the
papers and reserved his decision.
A motion for a new trial was also ar
gued in the case of the Savannah steam
rice mill against r. M. Hull and others
This was a suit over the payment of ex.
penses from the proceeds of salvage from
the rice mill fire, which was won by the
insurance men, and the company now
seeks new trial. About 500 is involved.
Capt. Henry Kolshorn has filed a bill
of sale to his brother, Mr.. Fred Kolshorn,
and a deed to Mrs. Isabella Fawcett, with
the clerk of the superior court. Unac-
quainted with this action of Capt Kol-
shorn, Messrs Garrard, Meldrlm & New
man, as attorneys for the Elgin Butter
Company, of Elgin, ILL.,, yesterday, gar
| nisheed some seventeen accounts due
Capt. Kolshorn by as many retail mer-
chants in the city. While the officer was
| serving the garnishments 1t was learned
that the property had been conveyed, and
he was notified, after having served ten,
to stop. The amount of the butter COM
pany's claim is 1896. The garnishments
were secured in Justice Warning RUSSELL

BUST OF COL. LESTER.
Secretary Gage TO BE Asked to Put
One fn the Public Building.

A petition is being circulated among
the lawyers. prominent business men and
others, directed to the Secretary of the
Treasury. and requesting that a marble
bust of Col. Rufus E. Lester, congress-
man from this district, be constructed
and placed in the new public building
when It is completed.
The petition is IN charge of Mr.. Charles
NJ West, who took It among many of Sa-
vannahs prominent citizens yesterday,
and all Of those seen readily signed it, be-
lieving that the tribute to Col. Lester
was due him for his work in behalf of
Savannah and of the whole community
that he represents.
The petition recites Col. Testers able
work in congress- and mentions especially
his work in connection with Savannah s
handsome public building. 1t is believed
this would be a fitting tribute to a con-
gresham who has labored so earnestly
in behalf of his people, and there is little
doubt, If IL were carried around. that the
petition would be signed by every man
woman and child in the county and in the
district
