DRAINAGE CLOSE TO THE CITY.
The Sanitary Board Urges It's ImpOr-
tance on the County.

The Sanitary Board Urges It's ImpOr-
lance on the County.
The sanitary board has taken the posi-
ton that the drainage of the lands around
the city Is of more Importance than the
drainage of other portions of the county
at a distance from the city. At the meet
ing of the board yesterday afternoon the
following resolution was adopted:
Resolved, That the board of sanitary
commissioners respectfully recommend to
the honorable, the commissioners of Chat
ham county, the Importance of giving
their attention to the immediate drainage
of the lands in proximity to the city.
Resolved, That the secretary of this
board be directed to forward a copy of
this resolution at once to the honorable,
the county commissioners.
The board made an addition to the rules
and regulations governing quarantine,
adopted at a previous meeting, the addi-
ton providing that the fee for the in
spection of frst-class coastwise vessels
shall be 50.
The new rules and regulations govern
ing quarantine are now printed and are
ready for distribution at the office of the
health officer. There were 5000 copies of
the new rules printed, but IL the demand
proves to be as great as anticipated, the
supply is not excessive. The shipping
firms have called for from 800 to 500 copies
each, and the consuls stationed at the port
and all persons interested in foreign busl-
ness will require quite number of copies
for distribution. Copies of the rules will
be furnished masters of vessels entering
quarantine in order that they may govern
themselves accordingly. 1t is the desire
of the board that copies of the new rules
should be distributed far and wide, in or
der that the unfavorable opinion that has
gone abroad concerning Savannah's quar-.
antine regulations may be contradicted as
rapidly as possible.
The resolution by the board relative to
the drainage around the city will be for
warded 60 the county commissioners this
morning. The action is the result of the
countys recent decision to drain the
Buckhalter swamp by a drainage canal
the digging Of which will take several
years. The importance of the drainage
close to the city is recognized by the sam
itary board. Health officer LeHardy point
"a out. in an interview in the Morning
News, several days ago. the necessity to
the city of having a more perfect system
OF drainage of the lowlands surrounding
It. The sanitary board discussed the mat
ter at length, and il will urge upon the
county the Importance Of local drainage
In preference TO that of the more remote
sections Of the county.

sAvANNAH's NEARBY RESORTS.
The Hot Weather Sending People to
the Salts.


With the onslaughts of the hot weather
Savannah people begin to consider the at
fractions of the summer resorts.
Allowing the mind to dwell upon the
GOODNESS of the sea breezes, the salt water
always invitingly near and enticing the
not unwilling bather, and the other de-
lights of informality and a stay by the
sea, causes a desire to leave the city for
the more comfortable resorts.
Many families with whom 1t is the Gus
tom ito go for the summer to the neigh
boring resorts, have already done so. Will
mington Island bids fair this season to
outstrip its previous records for popular
ity. Within the past two months four
or five new cottages have been erected
there and all on the island will be occupied
during the summer. Among those, who
have built new cottages are Messrs. Lang
and Kessel. Excellent steamer service is
being afforded the residents of
the island. The steamer Doretta
Capt. j. II. Judkins, is a staunch and fast
little craft that is welcomed on the line
by those who live between Thunderbolt
and Wilmington. Capt. Judkins finds this
season gives promise of great success. AL
ready he has sold more books of tickets
than during the whole of last season. The
Doretta also makes runs to Warsaw. Her
trips TO that island late on Saturday after
moons admit of a pleasant Sundays stay
The hotels at Tybee are enjoying a
splendid run of business, the number of
people that have been down already this
week being phenomenal. Inquiries are
being constantly received by the hotels
regarding rooms. These inquiries come
from all sections of the state, and indi-
cations point towards the month of July
and August being the most successful Ty-
bee has ever known. The club houses are
being well filled and a number of new
cottages have been built and are oc-
cupied. These, with the many
already on the island, have
their occupants, and the pop
ulation just now is large. Families hav-
ing summer homes at Isle OF Hope, White
Bluff and Montgomery are also moving

Grand Opera House.

The large business done at the Grand opera house lately will no doubt be kept up for another good attraction, Hands Across the Sea-" which will commence three days engagement this evening. Few plays have had such a long successful run as this popular drama. When here last it was highly spoken of and did large business. The play is well staged, well played and de- serves a continuance of the success it has justly achieved. Although Hands Across the Sea" is an English melo- drama, it catches on here just as much as it did in London, because of the really human spirit that pervades the work, the carefully formulated senti- ment, the contrast of humor and pathos and the various unique and happy sur prises presented. There will be the usual matinees tomorrow and Wed nesday, Prices the same as always Matinee 10c, 15c and 25c. Night, 1Oc 200, 30c and soc.

Cohan the eccentric dancer of the Four Cohans, is said to be the cleverest bit of comedy construction that has yet emanated from his pen, and in the judgment of the critics it is funnier than Men vs. Women" the comedietta in which MT. Filson and Miss Errol have earned a worldwide reputation. At any rate, they have been having as much success with "A Trip on the Derby as with the other, and that is proof enough that it must be a mighty clever production.
