he regretted very much to bring the matter
OF Alderman WHY'S resignation before
council.
Savannah needs men of, character and
ability, and Alderman WHY'S resignation
is positive loss to the city," he said.
Mayor Meldrim said he had consulted
Alderman Wylly about the matter, and
found that his determination was fixed.
The resignation was then accepted.
Business reasons were alleged by Alder
man Wylly in his letter of resignation,
which, he said, made his withdrawal from
council imperative.
The petition of the Savanna Naval Re-
serve to be included in the police reserve
appropriation was reported unfavorably by
the committee of the whole.
A communication was received from the
park and tree commission calling the at
tention of council to the fact that it had
called for and received bids for the drain
age of Laurel Grove cemetery and re-
questing action by council to enable it TO
undertake this work. The communication
was referred to the drainage committee
with instructions to report back to coun-
ell the estimated cost of the work and how
it shall be done.
The official statements and assessment
rolls for the paving of Railroad street and
Barnard street were verified in the usual
manner and the city treasurer INSTRUCTED
to levy the assessments accordingly.
The petition of the United States Union
Association for assistance in building a
home for old and decrepit negroes was re-
ported unfavorably by the finance COM
mittee there being no funds for such pur-
pose.
George f. Stockett presented petition
to council for an ordinance prescribing a
penalty for any person refusing to pay
hack fare. The petition was referred TO
the finance committee.
The aldermen assembled at the city eX-
change shortly after o'clock, but remain
ed in session in caucus until 1870 O'Clock.
Quite number of people interested in
commission appointments and other mat
ters to come before council had gathered
at the city exchange. Many of them grew
tired of waiting and went away before
council came into open session.
What it was that kept council so long
in caucus was not announced. 1t was
said that the budget was being over
hauled and that the commission appoint
ments were under discussion, but whether
such was the case cannot be stated.

ST. PAUL'S CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL
Gifts for Sunday school Children at
XOnge's Hail.

Yonge's hall was the scene of delight
full Christmas tree entertainment last
night by the Sunday school of st. Paurs
Episcopal church. The school was well
represented. and the evening was pleas
antly spent.
Mr.. Kriete gave grammaphone enter
tainment, which was thoroughly enjoyed.
The sounds were quite distinct to those
in the remote corners of the hall.
Following this was the distribution of
presents to the children, and it is said they
were among the best given by any of
the Sunday schools. After this part of
the programme there was an informal
talk by Rev. Mr. Scully on the meaning
of Christmas and the manner of obsery-
ing it. He spoke entertainingly for some
moments and impressed the eager little
listeners. After the programme the chairs
were removed and a sociable hop was
given Dancing was INDUCED in for some
time.
On New Years eve there will be a SER
vice in St. Pauls church for the purpose
of watching the old year out and recon-
secrating the members of the church TO
the work before them. The meeting will
commence at II 80 o'clock and will also
consist of prayers and songs.

FOR CHEATING AND swINDLING.
Nick HangicOs' Case to Go to the
Grand Jury.

Nick Hangicos was turned over 10 the
superior court yesterday on a warrant
charging him with cheating and swind-
ling Mr. George A. Hudson out OF $3O7.2 20
for goods purchased during the holidays.
Hangfcos endeavored to prove he had been
robbed but his claim was given little Gre
dence by Justice Naughtin, before whom
Hangicos was arraigned.
Purchases of fruit were made from Mr..
Hudson and Hangicos represented that he
was TO open a store at West Broad and
Little Jones streets. This he did. but later
sold the stock to Antonio Hangicos. 1t
then passed TO other hands and was fin
ally lost sight Of.
When pushed for payment, Hangicos
stated Saturday that he would call Mon
day and settle. This he failed TO do and
when seen by Mr.. r. G. VI. Crawford, who
represents the house. the man claimed
he had been robbed Sunday OF his cash.
Notwithstanding this, he was prosecuted
for cheating and was turned over by JUS
lice Naughtln Being unable 70 give bond,

Y. VI. IL. AS ENTERTAIN.
With Music, Tricks. Dancing and Re-
freshmcnts.


The musical entertainment given by tho
Young Mems Hebrew Association last
night at the Masonic hall, was largely
attended
The programme was opened by Mr.. Joe
Oppenheimer in his specialties. These con-
sisted of exhibition of Iegerdemain. and
were of such character rs to entertain
the audience thoroughly. He showed many
tricks, all of which won applause. with
all allowances for the absence of the
scenery and the "agony" accompanying
one might have imagined. in so far as the
slight of hand of the performer was con-
cerned, that he was witnessing some of
the efforts of Hermann.
A violin solo. "Traumerei" was render
ed, to the accompaniment of Prof l.. w.
Mehrtens, by Mr. Arthur Levy. The play
ing of this talented young violinist is al
ways heard with great interest That of
last night was as successful as his many
others before Savannah audiences.
Master SAME Brown is voted a success
whenever he is heard. He added to his
wreath of laurels with the rendition of the
vocal solo, TEL This TO My Sweetheart"
The piano selection, "Polonaise." e ma
jor, from List, by Mrs c. Lilenthal. was
one of the most finished numbers of the
programme
Upon the conclusion of the musical
feature of the entertainment dancing was
enjoyed by the young people. and later
refreshments were served. The success
of the entertainment was due largely to
the efforts of the committee under whose
direction it was given. This committee
was composed of Messrs. Herbert Kay
ton, chairman; Jake Hirsch, Joe Oppen-
heimer and Sol E. Dryfus.

MADE MERRY UNDER MASKS.
Club Universities French Ball a
Racy Event.

Racy Event.
The bal masque at the Odd Fellows hall
last night was one of the raciest affairs
that Savannah has seen i'm some time. it
was largely attended by many of both
sexes, though the men predominated.
Many dropped in for a time and then
shaped their courses for home. Most of
the women remained until the festivities
were concluded.
The affair was known as a French ball
The announcement stated that all who at
tended would do so in masks. This many
did, the women being particularly care
full, for time, al all events, to hide their
faces. Many of them were in fancy cos
tunes or dominoes, one or two boomer
outfits being visible
Many of the men did not wear masks {
all and concealment of identity after a
time became a matter Of no concern to
the majority of those present. II mad
been given out that there would be no
unmasking though this was to be accord
ing to the wishes OF the maskers.
While it cannot be denied that the ball
was visited by some who are themselves
not the very pink of propriety, the bounds
were we'll maintained. One or two police
men were on hand, and order was main
tanned throughout Liquor was sold, but
II was drunk in moderation, and none of
the maskers appeared to have been affect
ed by it, The ball continued until late
hour. 1t was given by the Club Unver-
selle. an organization that has not yet
made known its list of officers.

Otis Skinner will give his first perform
ance of the season in Savannah to-mor-

most successful one. He brings with him
a company which is reported to be one of
the best that he ever had. All of the old
