STICKING TO THE OLD NUMBERS.
Many People DO Not Even Know the
New Numbers on Their Houses.

TIE new system of house numbering has
probably caused the pcstofiee employees
and indirectly through them, people who
receive mail in the residence portions Of
the city more trouble than it has caused
any one else.
There viii be no trouble when people
have their mail properly directed. As it is
now there are frequent delays which are
annoying both to the postofice employees
and to people who receive mail as well.
The new numbers have been on most of
the houses for two months. The mail car
riers or course follow the directions on
letters and packages, and unless they
know the address of the parties to whom
mail IS TO be delivered, it is returned to
the postoffice. The peoples address Is as
certained II possible, and the mail is sent
out again by the next carrier. No in
stance has occurred Of the loss Of mail.
The trouble is in the delay in delivering,
ana the extra work entailed upon the post
Office employees OF securing the proper ad
dress in cases where it Is not known by
the carrier.
If people would notify their CORE spond-
ents or the change Of their address," said
postmaster Haines, much trouble and
delay would be avoided. Many people
nave evidently done so, but many have
NOT, and strange to say when asked about
the new numbers of their residence or
place OF business, many do not even know.
'Fne greatest trouble" said Postmas-
ter Haines, lis when people call for their
mail Sunday mornings. Almost invaria-
bly, they give the old number of their adj
dress whether their mail is so directed or
not. and of course there is frequent and
unavoidable delay in getting matters
straight. If people would instruct their
correspondents to address their letters.
and would also notify publishers Of the
newspapers they take, of their new num-
bers, there' would be less delay in hand
ling the mails .

merIy of Savannah.

The death Of Rev. Henry r. Dunlap, for
many years rector Of St. Matthew'S, now
St PauPs, Episcopal church in this city
some time ago. The following notice from
a Friend" will be read with interest by
many savannahians who knew Mr. Dun
lap during his residence here:
"A few short weeks ago there passed

a life devoted to God, to the church and
TO his fellowman. We cam rightly call
him one Of Gods chosen He was hon

Rev Henry r. Dunlap was a Christian,
loving and fearing God. letting his heart
and conscience lead him into the path Of

nobility and lovable character. His life
for the past years has been one of suffer
ing, but ne never faltered, keeping to his
duties ever faithful and ever true. For
many years Mr.. Dunlap was pastor OF st
Matthews church in Savannah, where he
was respected, loved and honored for mis-
goodness, for the nobility Of his character
and for his Christianity. He died at Mi
ami, Fla, Dec. L. 1896 far away from the
friends who loved him and whom he loved
a stranger among strangers. God gath
cred him into the fold there to receive his
well-earned reward for the good he did
on earth, to life Of happiness and love,
where suffering and sorrow are never
known, but his name and memory viii
ever linger with those who knew and loved

FEBRUARY SALES LIGHT.
Only One Piece of Property and n
Few shares of stock Disposed of.


Savannah real estate dealers and auc-
tioneers rarely see such light public
sales day as that OF Yesterday.
The small amount of property sold was
scarcely worth the while. So far as the
courts were concerned there have been
very few judgments during the present or
recent terms under which property has
been levied on, and there have been very
few court matters In which the services Of
auctioneers were called for.
Mr. G. II. Dorset sold six small houses
and lots in Marshall ward on Duffy street
between Burroughs and Cuyler. for 81 125.
Messrs. /. d. and r. ID. LaRoche sold two
shares of the capital stock Of the PEOPLES

Southwestern railroad stock for S9f. 625 per
share. All OF the other property adver-
tised for sale by this firm was withdrawn.

Coffee, Fleming and McCOOI Lose
Part of Their Months Pay.
The police commission met yesterday
afternoon and disposed Of charges against
three policemen.
Policeman Coffee. who was suspended
by Chairman Karow on the morning Of
last Tuesdays election, was suspended
for thirty days without pay. Coffee had
been on duty during the night. and nav
ing to continue on during the day, and
having had nothing to eat, fortified him
self against the cold with a couple Of
drinks. There was nothing doing in his
precinct, and the managers invited him
inside to sit down by the fire. He was
there when Commission Karow arrived on
his rounds Coffee was visibly intoxi-
Gated, though not bQisterous. To be in
toxicated on an election day is a pretty
serious offense for a policeman, but in
view of the mitigating circumstances and
Coffee's previous good record the commits
sion made the penalty a thirty days sus-
pension.
Policeman Fleming, who came off duty
in an intoxicated condition The other
morning, was suspended for ten days.
Policeman McCool was ordered to lose
his pay for the seven days he has been
under suspension. McCool was on tho
sick list, but when Commissioner Vetsburg
found him at one of the voting places 0n
election day he thought McCOol was show
ing too much interest in the election for
a sick man and suspended him.

PENSION MONEY HERE.
Clerk KeiIbach Has S1,56O For Com
fedeFate Veterans widows.

ICUtEuAt " AuONSs
Clerk Frank E. Keilbach, of the court
of ordinary, is ready to pay out $3.50 to
widows of Confederate Veterans residing
in Savannah. He received yesterday
twenty-six cheeks from the state pension
commissioner, each for $50, and these will
be presented to the widows as soon as
they call at the office of the ordinary and
sign the receipts foF, them.
The ordinary Is entitled by law to GER
tain fee for making out each pension pa
per, and in many counties in the state this
fee is always collected.
In Chatham county, however this is one
thing a widow Of Confederate Veteran
or a Confederate Veteran himself, wheth-
er an applicant for a pension or for free
license as a peddler never has to contend
with. II it is in the power of Judge Fer
rill to arrange any of these matters for
them, it is always done gratis.
The applications of Confederate Nete-
rams in Chatham who are entitled TO pen
sions have just been sent on
to the department, and it is
likely that their checks will be
received within a few days. The widows,
however, can get their money at once by
calling al the office of the ordinary in the
court house.
