Worth Saving.

The people of Belgium evidently be-
lieve in training their children in hab-
its Of economy. Possibly no better
method of convincing the young folks
of the wisdom of looking after small
things could have been found than that
resorted to in the public schools Of
Brussels. The Outlook gives the result
of the experiment:
Some time ago the children were re-
quested by their teachers to gather up
all the waste and apparently useless ar
ticles that they could find Oh their way
to and from school and to deliver them
to their respective teachers.
For eight months the work of collec-
ton went on. Such objects as tin foil,
tin cans, paint tubes, bottle capsules
and refuse metal were especially loolsec
after. The result was astonishing
Nineteen hundred and twenty five
pounds of tin foil rewarded the chill
dren's efforts, together with 1900
pounds of metal scraps, 4, 400 pounds of
bottle capsules and old paint tubes that
in the aggregate weighed 220 pounds.
But it was when the articles were
disposed of and the money applied to
useful objects that the full force Of this
economy was manifest. The proceeds
completely clothed 500 poor children
and sent 90 invalid children to re-
euperation colonies. aud there was q
goodly balance left to be distributed
among the sick poor of the city.

FATAL ACCIDENT
AT TYBEE ISLAND.
AS a Result, Three Men
Are Likely to
Die.
COULDN'T CONTROL THE THROTTLE.
Flat Car Fell Over Precipice and Sent
Men Flying Through
Space.

Savannah, Aug. 16.-A terrible acci-
dent occurred at the government
works on Tybee island at $40 o'clock
this morning. AS result of the cas-
ualty. five negroes and one white man
were injured. 1t was miracle that
all were not killed. AS it is, the
chances are that three of the negroes
will die. The other three men are only
slightly injured and will recover,
Those vino were caught in the acci-
dent are:
Foreman F. E. Stevens, slightly
bruised and right knee spralned at
the joint. The limb was placed In
plaster of paris. He will recover.
Abe Small, general bruises about
the body, rib on the right side frac-
tured and spine injured. He is one of
the three not likely to survive.
Nathan North was the most danger
ously injured of them all. His skull
was fractured, was internally injured
and has not regained consciousness.
The doctors think his injuries will
prove fatal.
James Scurdy is the third man who
is not likely to survive. His abdomen
was ruptured and his right ankle
sprained.
William Kirklin, bruised about the
hip, left shoulder and on the head.
He will recover.
James Cullen, right hip bruised a;
not seriously injured.
The accident was due to the inabil-
ity of Engineer B. B. Bogers to con-
troll the throttle of the locomotive
which he was using to push a flat car
loaded with sand up the chute. The
injured men were riding on the flat
car resting upon their shovels, which
they were to use in dumping the sand
into a side bin, when the car ran over
the butting block and fell down the
preciplce, 16 feet high, and sent the
men scattering through space.

MR.. FELTS AND HIS
FLYING MACHINE.
The Machine Still There, But
Felts Has MysteriOusly
Disappeared.
A SECRET OF OLD PIXIES PEAK.
Where is the Man Who Was to Jump ?
Some Say he Lacked Faith, But
Others Fear Ho Fell.

ManitOu, Col, Aug. 16.--William B .
Felts has mysteriously disappeared.
His flying machine, with which he
was to have attempted a flight from
Pixies Peak to Colorado Springs. is
still housed on the top of the peak.
There are rumors that Felts' nerve
was becoming shaky, but they are off
set by the claim that he was waiting
for fair day. Felts went down the
mountainside Friday afternoon, stat
ing that he was going for a walk,
since which time nothing has been
seen or heard of him.
Friends say he has probably lost his
way in the wilderness west of the
peak and may have fallen down a
precipIce and been killed. They have
been searching for him since Friday.
The majority, however, are skeptlcal
enough to believe the professor had
not sufficient faith in his invention.

Big Things THAT
ARE PROMISED.
Savannah Cotton Firms to Do
Shipping From Bruins,
wick.
WHAT new VHARVES ARE FOR.
One Savannah Firm Will Load Dozen
Tramps Hera-All the Phosphate
Coming This Way,

The Savannah News has an article
from its Brunswick correspondent,
which, under. the heading GA Boom
for Brunswick, announces the proba-
bility that three of that city's largest
cotton firms will shortly open branch
offices in this city. The article pro-
ceeds to say that Peacock, Hunt & Co.
and other naval stores factors are
considering the same move,
This information was news to
Brunswick people generally, but, THE
TINES learns, was based on the best of
authority, and has behind it a num-
Der of convincing facts.
The statement, as THE TIMES has it
from first hands, is that the extension
of the Plant SYSTEMS wharves in this
city is a sequence of the purpose of
the cotton firms and naval stores fac
tors mentioned in the Savannah News
article. According to this informa-
tion, there has been regular contract
entered into between the railroad and
the firms in question, and that the re-
movals will be made as soon as the
wharves are ready for their use.
One of the cotton firms under con-
sideration will load at least dozen
big tramp steamships at these
wharyes during the coming season,
and while there Is nothing authorita-
tive as to the plans of the other two,
it is rumored that they will do a busi-
ness Of no less Importance.
The diverting of all the Plant sys-
TENS phosphate shipments through
this port is another of the rumored
big things of the coming season. The
amount of phosphate handled by the
Plant people is large consideration,
and more will be handled during the
next year than ever before.
THE TIMES believes that there is a
great deal more in all the reports of
coming prosperity than mere rumor,
and awaits the confirmation of the
best of them with something like the
assurance of absolute fact.

The Savannah Naval Militia are ia
take active steps, with the co-opera-
tion of the Georgia members of con-
gress, to secure a training ship for
the use of their two divisions.
AS the Savannah News puts it, in
an article in yesterdays issue, the
Savannah boys are not anxious to
take the monitor Passaic away from
the Brunswick Reserves, even if they
could get it. They want a ship of
their own, and express themselves as
deslrOus that the Brunswick divisions
keep the Passaic. The Savannah Re-
serves do not think that the Navy de-
partment will adopt the advice given
by Capt. Todd, and think the Passaic
will not be removed from Brunswick
by the authorities.

AWFUL GARROTE
FOR THE ASSASSIN.
AgiOlillO, Who Killed Premier
CanOvas, to be Choked
to Death.
TURNED PALE At HIS DOOM
Tried by Court -Martial-PrOmpt Punish
ment for COwardly Anarchist
and Murderer.

Madrid, Aug, 16.-Michael Agloiillo,
anarchist assassin of Premier Cano-
vas de Castillo, was tried by court
martial yesterday at Veregara, found
guilty, and sentenced to death.
Upon hearing the sentence Angiol-
lilo turned very pale and had to be
assisted from the courtroom.
Agiollllo will be garroted within
the prison.
Coli, the assassin, will die the ig-
nominious death of the garrote. This
species of death is reserved for the
most brutal criminals, and it was by
this means that the assassin of the
king of Spain was put to death.
The method of execution is by plac-
ing metallic collar about the neck of
the condemned and a screw at the
back of the collar is turned in such a
way that its point reaches the spinal
chord, causing instant death.
Originally stout cord was tied
about the neck and the culprit was
strangled by twisting the cord with a
stick.
This form of capital punishment is
employed in Spain and Spanish Amer
ica. The man who attempted the life
of the late king suffered this kind Of
death.

Paris, Aug. 16.-Prince Henry of
Orleans, who was wounded in the
lower part of the right side of the ab-
domen yesterday morning in a duel
fought with the Count of Turin,
nephew of the King of Italy, passed q
quiet night. His condition is now
considered by his physicians to be
satisfactory. General Albertone, the
Italian officer who had challenged
Prince Henry, but who gave way to
the Count of Turin, has withdrawn
his challenge.
A special dispatch from Rome pub

that the pope will excommunlcate
Prince Henry of Orleans and the
Count of Turin, as dueling is forbid

PAssAIC TO MOVE.
The Monitor to be Brought Up to the City
This Morning.

The Monitor to be Brought Up to the City
This Morning.
Both divisions of the Naval Militia
have been ordered out by Lieutenants
Aiken and Wright to go to st. Simon
on the steamer Pope Catlin this morn
ing at O'Clock, From Ocean pier the
Reserves will be transported to the
monitor Passaic, and will proceed to
the task of preparing her for the trip
back to the city.
The Passaic will be brought to town
under her own steam. Engineer Dan
Devereaux will probably manipulate
the engines. The monitor has not
been moved under steam since she was
first brought into port, although she
has several times been fired up for the
purpose of turning her engines.
The trip will take some time, as the
process of running such old machin-
cry will be necessarily slow. The
monitor will be moored at her old
berth off the Plant System wharves.
