bic by him. If it is worth having. He is
sure to have 1t, and he is the first to have

AFTER MIR. RAUERs ISLAND.
Appraisers Appointed to Assess the
Value of That Portion Wanted.

The proceedings on the part of the
government to condemn for lighthouse
purposes a portion of ST. Catherine's ISL
and the property of Mr.. Jacob Rauers,
have taken a new turn, and appraisers
have been appointed by the court to de-
termine the value Of the property desired.
The case came up for trial before Judge
Speer about two years ago, and was
thrown out of court. The suit was
brought again, and the defendant entered
what is known as a plea Of res judicata;
that is, the question at issue having once
been passed upon by the court, IL could
not be brought up again.
Judge Speer overruled that plea, and his
decision ts TO the effect practically that
the case has standing in court and will
have to go through regular trial. On the
part of the court he appointed Mr.. John
X. Young an appraiser. District Attorney
Marion Erwin appointed Col. John Screw
en- as an appraiser and the third APP
praiser is to be appointed by the defend
ant. Mr.. Young was made chairman of
the board of appraisers, and they are to
be called together whenever he shall see
fit.
The third appraiser to be appointed by
the defendant must be named within
seven days. The appraisers are required
to meet and assess the true value of the
property desired, and make their report
TO the court by Sept. 15
Mr.. Rauers is away from the city. and
has not been notified of the action of the
court Mr.. Young and Col. Screven were
notified of their appointment as apprais-
ers yesterday by Deputy Marshal Charles
J. White

property will destroy the value of the ISL

of the Third L. s. Volunteers.
Col. Ray has instituted court martial
proceedings against Lieut.. Col. Reaves and
Maj. Frank Gordon of the Third United

ity to command a regiment in case 1t
should devolve upon him.

NEARLY FIVE INCHES OF RAIN.
The LowIands Flooded and Canals
and bitches Overlooking.

anu ONeEhoNNIhks
Savannah got another thorough washing
yesterday Afternoon and last night. If
there was any need of flushing sewers
there is certainly none now. Between the
hours of and p. M, 3la inches of rain
fell. Between the latter hour and mid
night there was probably another inch.
It Is probable that the entire rainfall for
the twenty-four hours ending at O'Clock
this morning will fan little, If any, short
of five inches.
August will probably esta blish an en-
tirely new rainfall record. 1t is doubt
full il in any month since the weather bu-
reau was established there have been two
days with rainfalls of five inches or more.
The fall for the month will be far above
the normal and will doubtless put that
for the year to date above the average
Reports received by the Central and
Florida Central and Peninsular railroads
showed that there were very heavy rains
along their lines, but no washouts of any
consequence were reported AT o'clock
last night 1t was raining at Pensacola,
Savannah, Wilmington, Augusta, and
New Orleans.
The heaviest fall outside of Savannah
was little short of two inches at Char
lesion. Many people were anxious during
the heaviest part of the rain yesterday TO
know if 1t were not the forerunner of a
storm Inquiry at the weather bureau de-
veloped that there were no storm indica-
lions anywhere. Tuesday will be the an
niversary of the great storm of 1888 Its
near approach always causes some anX-
iety on account of the fact that this Is
the hurricane season.
The down pour yesterday flooded the
streets and the lowlands around the city
we're lakes for awhile. The canals and
bitches were full and in many places were
overlooked.
The indications at midnight were for a
continuation of the rain to-day.

''There Is no doubt that the cruel treat

Mayor Meldrm said "and there is perhaps
considerable room for work In this drec-
ton right here. There is a law OF the
state which makes the cruel treatment Of
animals penal offense. The people who
take part in such societies therefore have
sufficient remedies for these cases. and an
