Town Notes.

Millbury, March 27.-As the spring ap-
proaches the people of West Millbury
are wondering as to when the officials of
the Suburban road will commence to ex-
tend their tracks from their present ter
minus near the St Charles Hotel to the
grove at West Millbury. The grove is
one Of the best in this locality and if the
ofhcials of the road would extend their
tracks to the spot 1t would mean an in
crease of money to them. Parties Of all
kinds are held at the grove during the
summer months and it would be of
much benefit to the road officials as we'll
as to the public al large.
CAR LEFT THE IRONS.
A car on the Suburban road this even
ing ran off the tracks near the car barn,
and traffic was delayed for some time.
The Z O'clock car from Worcester was q
half-hour late The car left Worcester
at 6.15 as usual and all went well till
the switch at the car barn was reached,
when to the great surprise Of all aboard
1t made a jump and left the track.

duties. If the ordnance introduced by Al
derman Davis last night passes, it Will
preclude the health officer from practicng
medicine, aside from that which may
properly come within his duties
From and after the LIST day OF January,
1899. it provides. the health officer of
the city of Savannah shall be required to
give his undivided time and attention to
the duties of his office, and shall not en-
sage in the general practice of medicine
outside of the duties Of his said office
That from aud after this date the sal
airy of said health officer shall be $3.50
per annum, payable in equal monthly in
stallments."
Al first blush it might appear this was
a blow at Health officer LeHardy,
who is actively engaged in the general
practice OF medicine, and has also de-
clared his intention of becoming a candi-
date for reelection. Such is moi the case,
however, as ii is desired 10 have the office
given more personal attention.
Il heartily favor the passage of the or
dinance," said Alderman Owens to a repre-
sentative of the Morning News. while
l do not think there was a specific provis-
ion TO that effect still l believe this was
the understanding when DR. Drummer
t.'-s'4S "ei9 AHSiSo9St ItOlu 94soVV ~ @-f4Vv'
lie gave the office his exclusive attention,
and think this should have been adhered
to. The duties are constantly increasing,
however and as the ordinance preciudes
outside practice, I consider il nothing
more than right that the salary should be
accordingly increased"
The ordinance win not be news TO DIR.
LeHardy though, as he was told yesterday
by Alderman Owens that Council intend
ed TO consider such a change. Just how
he viii look upon il, and whether it will
cause him TO change his mind with regard
to his candidacy, is yet TO be made known.

ACCOMMODATION FoR ONLY 500.
Committee Wants More Responses
TO the Gail for Rooms.

Committee Wants More Responses
TO the Gail for Rooms:
MIR. w. G. Brewer, chairman of the SUBJ
committee on public comfort of the gem
eral committee in charge of the arrange
ments for the visit of the President and
his party, says that he has not received
many names in response 10 the request
that people who have rooms that may be
placed at the disposal of visitors to the
ciiy, send their addresses and state
ment of the accommodations they can
furnish to him. Thus far he has been ad-
vised of accommodations for but 500 peo-
pie. As chairman of The committee, he re-
grets this very greatly. He would like TO
see accommodations provided for all who
visit the city during the stay of the Pres
ident, but, he sees no chance Of their be-
ing adequate if anything like the number
expected by the railroad officials should
come.
1t was the desire of all the railroad men
20 get a list of the people who could fur
nish accommodations their addresses, and
the number of rooms at their disposal.
They wanted to send this list to all sta
tons in duplicate, to be posted for the
information of any who might wish to
come to Savannah, but who might be
hanging back for fear of their not being
able to secure places at which they might
stop. Unless there is a sudden awakening
of those who may have accommodations
before tonight. it is not likely that this
information can be sent out.
With accommodation for only 500 Wis
itors 10 advertise it would probably be
better not to advertise. If the committee
can get in number of names to-day, the
list will not be sent out as it will be too
late but the number of people that can be
accommodated will be wired to every sta
ton, and the agents win post up the in
formation.
Passenger agents confidently expect a
large crowd to visit the city. Very cheap
rates are named by all The lines. They
say the presence of the President and the
troops and the fact that the Christmas hol-
idays are so near at hand will have the
effect of bringing people from all over the
wide area of territory from which cheap
rates win prevail.
On the fifth page of this issue of the
Morning News there is an advertisement
of the Plant SYSTEMS races for the occa-
sion.

Maj. Russell Is. Harrison Comments
on Good Order of soldiers.
An acknowledgement by Maj Russell b.
Harrison, formerly provost marshal of
the good treatment the soldiers had re-
ceiycd, aud the hearty manner IN which
the city had co-operaled to preserve or
der, was with the miscellaneous business
before Council last night. 1t is as follows:
Hon. Peter w. Meldrim, Mayor Of Sa-
Vannah, Ga.-My dear Sir: The Seventh
Army Corps is now under orders 10 pro-
coed to Havana Cuba, and the headluar-
ters Of the corps are loading their effects
upon the transport I have officially trans
ferred the duties of my office as provost
marshal to my successor: but / cannot
leave without writing to thank you, and
through you the other officials and the
citizens of Savannah, for their many acts
of kindness to the provost marshal bis
officers and the men Of The guard who
have been for some time engaged in the
task Of maintaining good order and mill
tary discipline among the soldiers in your
midst.
THE kind and generous acts of your
self and other citizens were so numerous,
and of so varied a character, that IL would
be impossible to enumerate them. Ii was
very liberal and cOlsiderate of the citl-
zens of Savannah to permit the provost
guards 10 occupy some of their many and
beautiful parks; and the use of them con-
iributed much TO the comfort and happi-
ness of the soldiers AS these parks have
been nearly all the time occupied by
Northern troops it has, by the close con-
tact of the men with the citizens about
the parks, done much 10 establish more
cordial relations and better feelings be
tween the visitors from the North and their
friends, and the people of the city of Sa-
Vannah.
LAS to myself, feel quite proud that I
have been permitted 10 have, without OBJ
jeclion. military control of your progress
sive and beautiful city. My father wnen
he was a soldier and in this vicinity was
not. for reasons that need no explanation,
received so cordially. Yours sincerely,
Russell B. Harrison
As soon as the letter was read, Alder
man Owens moved that ii BE- received as
information, and that a committee to IL
clude the Mayor, be appointed to draft
suitable resolutions. Mayor Medrm did
not name The committee last night.
