The new street car system Is nearly COM
pleted and the Barnard, Whitaker and
Abercorn belts will be in operation this
week. 1t is an established fact that these
lines have all been arranged with a view
of convenience to Halligan's Restaurants.
No matter from what part Of the eity
the start is made, Halligan's is sure to
be reached. II is a wise move on the part
of the railroads to accommodate the tray-
ell to and from Halligan's. Halligan's is
an attraction for the whole town, and his
place is also the most POPULAR This is
the result of conducting first-class res
taurant up to the highest standard. and
at the same time having scale Of prices
moderate in every item. Halhgan's Is the
first good restaurant Savannah has ever
had, and since its commencement the Dro-
prietor has used every endeavor to make
1t better all the time If you want the hest

Halhgan's Restaurant. 1t is always open

PREACHERS WANT AN AUDITORIUM
Would lie the Very Thing for Union
Services.

The idea OF an auditorium for Savan-
nah meets with the approval Of the min
listers, and they favor it heartily.
Rev. J. Fl. Scruggs, pastor Of Trinity
says the auditorium is what Is needed.
Were a wealthy man." he said, II would
buy big lot In the central part of the
city and erect a handsome auditorium
II Is what the city needs and should have.
Speaking for the churches, l can say slch
building would be of great bensnt TO
them. If such a meeting place could lie
had we could have immense union services
here that would be the means of great
deal of good. The need of an auditorium
has long been felt by the churches"
Rev. A. j. Smith. pastor Of the First
Pres 0yterian, said he would be in favor of
such building, and that he thought all
the other church people in the city would
1t IL We're devoted to the proper purposes
"Of COURSE" he said, "the churches could
not use building for religious exercises
that was accustomed to have all kinds of
performances in it. AS long as an audi
torium Is only used for proper meetings
and entertainments, it would be of benefit
TO the churches when they desired to hold
union services.
The auditorium talk keeps up, and 1t
may be that some steps will be taken for
its erection. It has been suggested that
men of means might take hold of the pro-
ject could guaranteed rental be secured
from the churches. If these conformity
could raise such a sum as to give a Suar-
anteed return for the investment, the rent
al of the auditorium to others from time
TO time might be sufficient to bring paying
dividends.

RICE ACREAGE INCREASED.
Fifteen to Twenty Per Cent. More
Land Planted This Year.

Land Planted This Year.
The rice area in the vicinity of savan-
nah will be increased somewhat this year
as a result of the increased protection by
the present tariff law and the succession
season OF last year.
While the crop last year was not a large
one the area piansed being small, the
yield was fair. the quality good and the
prices satisfactory. This, together with
the Increased protection afforded by the
Dingley bill, has tended to put the plant
ers in good spirits. Another good thing
which has come their way is the mild, dry
winter. The planters all declare it to have
been the the best winter season for pre-
pairing lands for the crop that has been
known in years. The lands have been
we'll plowed, fortified and narrowed, ana
are now ready for the planting of this
years crop.
The favorable weather gave the planters
the opportunity which they desired, In
view of all the circumstances of extend
ing their acreage. There is reported TO be
a general increase in acreage on the part
of all planters in the Savannah terri
tory, though not very extensive one.
Inc increased acreage rs estimated at
from 10 10 20 per cent. The planters have
had so many unsatisfactory experiences
in previous years that even the fact of n
high tariff does not incline them to enter
upon extensive operations. Louisiana,
which Is now the chief rice-producing
state, is said to be preparing for a very
large increase in acreage, and it is feared
that large crop there win keep down
prices The Georgia and South Carolina
planters will begin TO put in their crops
on the first tides of this month, March II.

LOVES HIS TRIBE.
Romantic HiEtory of Chief Qunnah
Parker, of The ComancheB.

I:omHntic HiEtOry of Chief Qunnah
Parker, of The ComancheB.
Chief Quanah Parker, the Comanche
Indian of Oklahoma, has n romantic
history.
His mother was white woman who
was captured by the Comanches when a
small girl and grew up among (
dians, forgetting her own tongue. When
Gen. Mckenzie raided the Comanches
and captured the tribe in 1874 Quanah
Parker's mother, who had been taken as
wife of the chief, was among the num-
Der.
All that she could remember to iden-
tify herself was her name-Cynthia
Ann Parker.
She was finally located as being from
Jackson county, Tex, where she was
joyously received by her family, after
having been looked upon as dead for
many years.
She took her son, now Chief Quanah
Parker, with her, and had him educated.
Later he returned to his tribe. He is
tall, fine-looking Indian, but he shows
no trace of his white blood.
The favorite of his five wives always
accompanies him on his journeys, as
does his young son, both of whom are
now in this city.
Chief Quanah Parker is quite rich
in cattle and money, and is looked upon
as one of the most intelligent of the
Indian chiefs.

LIQUID FUEL.
OIL Better Than Coal for Many Pug
nOnen.

OIL Better Than Coal for Many PEf-
poses.
Liquid fuel is coming into general
use among engineers, and there can be
little doubt that if road carriages are to
be propelled by steam, the only fuel
admissible will be some form Of pc
troleum, says the National Recorder.
At late meeting of the Northeast
Coast institution in South Shields, Mr..
r. r. Wallis read paper giving the
results of many experiments to ascer-
tain the calorific and evaporative value
of various oils as fuel for steam raising.
In comparing coal and oil he shows
that the value of each varies greatly
with the quality and circumstances
under which burned, oil doing from
one and half to two and half times
the work of an equal weight of coal.
This is accounted for, first, by the COM
plete combustion of oil without loss of
heat in SCOT or smoke; second, because
there are no fires to clean with the
accompanying loss of heat and fall OF
steam pressure, the pressure and
revolution of / he engines being main
tanned; third, because the boiler tubes
are always clean and in the best condi-
ton for the heat from gases passing
through them to the boiler, and fou-!h l.,
because the temperature of the cscap-
ing gases may be lower than is reccs-
sary to create the drauGht necessary
for coal firing. There are no bars nor
thick fire for the air to force it's way
through; the required amount of air
can be drawn through the furnace by
a lower uptake temperature, ard the
admission of air being under complete
control and the fuel burned il fine PAR
ticles in close contact with the CO. cen
of the air, only a very small excess OF
air is required. It occupies, more
over, only half the space needed for
coal.
