ST. JAMES DIsrENsARY's WORK.
The Number of Patients Increasing
Daily.


The physicians at the head of the st.
James dispensary are very well pleased
with the success of their undertaking thus
far, and with the encouragement with
which they are meeting from the people.
They have had about as many patients as
they expected for the first week. The
largest number that has yet been treated
in one day is nine.
The physicians say that about twenty
five can be treated during their office
hours at the dispensary, from II to 2
o'clock. 1t is thought that there viii be
that number daily after the merits of the
system of treating the poorer people of
the city, and the good ethat will result
from their labors, have been thoroughly
understood by some of the charitable or
zanizations, whose aid 1t is desired to en-
list 10
A committee. consisting of Drs. Corson,
HERS. Graham and Lanier, has been APP
pointed to meet the officers of the chari-
table associations of Savannah for the
purpose of enlisting their help. MSome of
the physicians have already talked with
members of the association, and the opin-
ion of those who have been approached
is strongly in favor of the charities being
conducted in competition with the dispen-
ton can be secured at the dispensary is so
slight that it becomes charity. The fee
charged for consultation is only
25 cents, and it is thought that the chart
table organizations win be glad to make
arrangements with the dispensary by
which those, who receive aid from them
can get treatment.
The work of the dispensary will not, it
is said, interfere at all with that of the city
physicians The trustees of the dispensary
do not visit patients That is largely the
work of the city physicians. The trus-
tees do not ever refuse treatment on ac-
count of those desiring it not having the
money with which to pay. Such course,
they believe, would not be in keeping with
their aim to conduct the institution on
purely charitable basis. The small fee is
only charged in order for the institution
to be self-supporting. The physicians have
no desire to make anything out of the
practice. The experience they will gain
from many of the cases that will come
before them they regard as q considera-
ton.
The physicians in charge of the dispen-
sary would like to see the poorer classes
come to their place for treatment. None
will he denied. Attention will be given
the colored people as readily as to the
white. Separate rooms have been provid-
ed for both. Thus far the division of pa
tents has been about equal between the
two ra pps

WOULD GET ALONG ALL RIGHT.
Alderman Hull and MIR. GraysOn In
the Fire CommissiOn.

Alderman r. M. Hull does not under
stand why it should have been surmised
that, in the event of his being appointed
to succeed Mr.. Parish on the fire COM
mission, upon the expiration of that gem
tleman's term, he would have trouble in
getting along with Chairman Grayson of
the commission.
Nlr. Hull asked a representative of the
Morning News yesterday where it had
been learned that the relations between
himself and Chairman Grayson would be
unfriendly If he were made a member of
the commission. He said he had said
nothing to indicate that he and the chair
man would not be able to get along with
out trouble. 81 have seen MIR. Grayson,"
he said, land he says he does not know
of any reason why we should not work
in harmony if on the same commission.
| do not know how the report got out that
l would be likely to be the mayors APP
pointee in case the commissions are still
in existence at the time the term of office
of the retiring member of the fire COM
mission expires. The mayor has not sig
nfhed any intention of appointing me-.
Chairman Grayson says he does not
know of anything that would cause him
and Mr.. Huh to have trouble in getting
along together if they were to serve upon
the same commission.

BAPTISTS TO START A MISSION.
Another Church I'm the Southern
Section of the City.


The Baptist Church Extension Society of
Savannah met in the Sunday school room
of the First Baptist church last night. for
the purpose of hearing the report of the
general committee and transacting such
other business as might come before 1T.
The general committee on church ex
tension and missions, made its report. and
after some discussion it was adopted. It
embodied one matter of especial interest to
all the Baptists of Savannah and that
was the recommendation to establish a
Baptist mission in the southern part of
the city. A lot has already been pur-
chased and the society is now endeavor-
ing TO arrange for the building of a suita-
Bile house on the lot. This will be used
as a mission for that part of the city.
where church and Sunday school service
will be regularly held.
The meeting seemed enthusiastic in
its advocacy of the establishment of the
mission, and the pastor, Rev. John d.
Jordan, who is taking an especial pride
in the work, states that it is the hone
to get things in readiness for the com
mencement of work in the course of a
few weeks.

WANT ONE CENT a MILE.
t. p. AS Say That Rate Would Make
April Week Success.

Arrangements for the T. P. A. week to
be held here next April are going on with
a rush. Drummers are proverbial hust-
lers, and they are sustaining their reputa-
lions In this instance.
Mr.. Max Krauss s the chairman of one
of the most important committees that
has been appointed. He allows no grass
to grow under his feet when he decides
to take a thing in hand to make it sue
cess. He has his heart in this work, and
he and the members of his committee,
which is that on railroads, VIII do all they
can to secure a low rate.
Mr.. Krauss says one-cent-a-mile rate
is what is wanted We will have to get
that rate to make the affair success,
such as we expect, and l believe II can De
done. l have had talks with some OF the
railroad officials and l think they favor
putting on greatly reduced rates as they
recognize the fact that the drummers can
make the week big success and induce
large crowd of people to come"
A great deal depends on what kind OF
entertainments we provide for the visitors.
There is no doubt that the travelling men
can get out into the country and boom the
week so that we will get a great many
people from all the neighboring towns, and
the rural districts as Wen. but we W ant
them to enjoy themselves after we get
them here. We are now casting about for
methods of entertaining the visitors. Our
idea is that sports appeal to people more
than anything else that can be gotten up
for an occasion of this kind, so We will
try to have races and other out-of-door
events. Then We want a whole week of
attractions at the theater. One or more
of the finest bands we can get are wanted
to discourse sweet music at stated places
during the day and evening. Another
thing we must have is an open house,
where it will not cost a visitor cent to
go and get entertainment"
The occasion, which the members of
Post A of the Travellers Protective Asso-
citation desires to become a season of jul
bilee ard merry-making, is the state con-
venton of the order. Last spring this
convention was held at Atlanta. Since
then the order has grown considerably in
the state, and 1t is expected that there
will be an even larger attendance than
was had at Atlanta. 1t is said that the
Atlanta members have already signifed
their intention of bringing down two
train loads of the delegates with their
friends. Augusta which has a very
strong post says the delegation from At
lanta will not exceed that which will be
sent from that city.

TO PUSH THE DRAINAGE.
Savannah VIII BE Pretty Well Sew
cred by Next Summer.

Alderman T. d. Wylly, Jr., chairman of
the drainage committee OF council, said
yesterday that the house drainage matter
is in good shape. The plans are practically
complete. and will be ready to submit to
council on Nov l. They win at once be
open for the inspection of bidders.
The bids are to be submitted on Nov. Is.
and the successful contractor will proba-
bly, be required to begin work within ten
days thereafter The intention is to push
the work as rapidly as possible during the
winter months, and until June 1, next,
when work will have to cease, as it is not
intended to suspend the ordinance against
upturning the soil in the streets even for
this important work.
Alderman Wylly said that under the
plan to be adopted by council, the work
will be taken up in sections, and in all
probability the sections on the east and
west sides of the city will be given at
tention first with a view of completing the
drainage for those sections before sum-
mer. Yamacraw, and perhaps Roberts
vile, on one side and the Old Fort on the
other, and perhaps all the northern sec
ton of the city, will have house drainage
by next summer, Alderman Wylly said
AS the larger number of the 1000 vaults
which underlie the city, are situated in
these sections, the Importance of giving
them the first attention is easily seen
In connection with the house drainage
the work of surface drainage, were not
already sufficient will be carried on. The
surface drainage is In itself a great SAN
itary Improvement. ..

Coasters Having a Hard Time of

A number of Savannah steamships have
either been delayed in sailing or encoun-
tered the. coast storm.
The City of Birmingham arrived at New
York yesterday morning at 1870 O'Clock,
two days overdue. She was scheduled to
sail on her return trip yesterday, but on
account of her delay, will not sail until
Saturday.
The steamship City of Macon was sched-
uled to sail from Boston direct to Savan-
nah last Saturday, but owing to a broken
valve near her keelson, she had to be put
in dry dock, and did not sail until Sun
day. 1t has not been learned, as yet,
whether she passed out Sunday, but if she
did, it Is almost certain that she encoun-
tered the storm She was due to arrive
yesterday afternoon, but had not put in
an appearance up to last night
The City of Augusta was scheduled to
sail from New York at p. m. Monday,
but was delayed on account of the storm
and did not leave until Tuesday. She is
due to arrive tonight
The steamship d. II. Miller must have
been struck with considerable force by the
storm. She left Savannah Saturday and
was due to arrive at Baltimore Monday
night or Tuesday morning. A telegram
received from Baltimore at 10 O'clock last
night stated that her arrival had not been
reported There were some fears express
ed that the steamer reported ashore at
Cape Henry was the Miller, but the I'M
fortunate vessel was the German steam
ship Polaria, bound from Galveston for
Hamburg, via Norfolk an account of
which disaster is published in the tele-

FEVER'S LOW DEATH RATE.
Or. lie Hardy Refers to the Govern

Or. lie Hardy Refers to the Govern
ments Figures.
The public health reports published by
the United States marine hospital ser
vice eives the total number of cases of
supposed yellow fever announced up to
October 20. as 1864, and the total number
of deaths at 1874. This is remarkably low
death rate and that is the reason Health
officer LeHardy laid strong emphasis
upon the word supposed in furnishing
this information.
Dr. LeHardy believes that a great many
cases which have been reported as yellow
fever are nothing but dengue fever or
some other high type of malarial fever
these fevers having prevailed extensively
in the Gulf states this season.
ITO think of a whole section of country
being frightened out of it's wits" said
DR.. LeHardy, because of a socal1ed cpl
demic in which have been only $500 cases
in the entire south during the season and
out of this number only 1874 deaths. Last
year there were 791 deaths in New York
city from measles alone, and in the en-
tire country in the neighborhood of 10000
persons die from consumption every year.

He is such a terrible fellow that nobody
cares to have anything to do with him.
Perhaps this so-called epidemic will do
good in proving that yellow fever is no
longer such a dangerous disease in this
country, and with proper methods Of
sanitation is much less dangerous than
some of those we have with us all the
time If the people will realize this and
will give more attention to sanitary condi-
tons we will have less senseless quaran-
tine and yellow fever will cease to be a
bugaboo. With the city and the country
around it perfectly drained, as we expect
to have it by next summer, and our new
system of house drainage established and
in operation, Savannah will soon be able
to snap her fingers at yellow fever"
