Lieut. s. X Mayors, of Mobile, who
preceded the regiment yesterday, made
these arrangements with Hon. j. J. Me-
Donough. He has also attended to some
other details which viii tend to make the
stay OF the regiment comfortable. Lieut..
Mayer was a resident OF Savannah for
several years prior to 1880. having been
manager hero for Dun's agency and sub
eequeutly credit man for S. Guckenhelmer
& Sons Lieut. Mayer says the Fifth
regiment has a regimental band Of twenty
two pieces, which may be induced TO give
a concert at the De Soto or elsewhere if
the men are cainped here more than a few
hours. The men OF the regiment are
eager and anxious to get away some

services being valuable to the country.

AT THE CITY MARKET.
The Delightful Display of Healthy
Meats and Vegetables.

The Savannah city market never pre-
scented a more attractive appearance than
now. It is true that in the winter there
is displayed a larger variety of meats and
game, but then there is an inviting air
about all of the stalls. Everything is
kept so neat. If housekeepers were to
make their purchases in the market in
stead of buying here and there the
meats that are questionable and the
vegetables and fruits that are exposed to
the sun for several hours, they would be
better satisfied with what they got; they
would not take the chance OF getting sick
and they would also save money.
Now, there is II. Logan in the market
the caterer to the wants of families. If
you want roast of beef or mutton, a
luscious steak, a soup bone, frankfurter
sausage, soft-shell crabs, shrimp da-
mond-back terra pin, fresh fish, fresh veg
etables, delicious fruits or melons, the
safest and decidedly the most proper thing
to do is send your order to Logan. He
will serve you promptly and always salts
factorily.-ad

rowing and afflicted family have the deep
est sympathy in their grief

gin at Once.

Contract Awarded and work to BE-
gin at Once.
The contract for draining Laurel Grove
cemetery, according to plans by City En-
gineer VIM, was awarded yesterday to
McKenna & Walsh. This firm gets the
contract on a bid filed with the Park and
Tree Commission some time ago, but
which was held up, with a number of 9TH
ers when the projected Improvement
struck a stump.
The contract provides that work shall
be commenced at once, and completed by
oct 4. 1t is understood there is little
probability for delay, as the contractors
are already supplied with a large portion
of the required material, and Will, there
fore, not be interrupted on this account.
satisfactory bond was yesterday sub
mitted to Acting Chairman p. d. Daffin
of the Park and Tree Commission. who in
tends to push the work TO hasty conclu-
sion.
BY the appropriation Of about 1880, al
lowed the commission by Coun-
ell, the cemetery will be put
in such condition that there win be
no necessity TO buy additional lands for
this purpose for some time. The question
of draining in place of buying other land
was thoroughly discussed by city officials,
most all of whom favored the present
course when all features of the matter
was laid before them

Thirty-twO Took CiviI Service Ex-
animation.
Thirty-two applicants for places in the
postoftice under the civil service commits
sion were examined at the custom house
yesterday. Fourteen were white and
eighteen colored, thirteen want to be car
riers and nineteen desire places as clerks.
Some finished their work in an hour and
thirty minutes. while others found il i'm
possible, apparently, to get through in
the Limit allowed by law, four hours and
thirty minutes. The time consumed is en-
tered on every paper as it is handed to
the examiners and is of considerable i'm
portance 10 determining the averages.
The board of examiners consisted Of
Messrs Lemcke, RaWls and Coolidge
Each man had to file an application with
three vouchers and a physicians certih-
cate attached and present a card which
had been sent him by Secretary Rawls
before being admitted to the examina-
ton.
The examination was the same for both

WANT THE INTEREST RENTED,

Then Pay Paving Bills.
The Liberty street property owners con-
template filing a petition with Council,
asking that the interest on the various
amounts due the city for the paving of
that street some years ago, be RENTED
if the principal is paid in a certain time.
There are a number of attorneys rep
resenting the property owners, among
them MIR. r. r. Richards and Mr. J. r.
Saussy, Jr. When seen in regard to the
matter, Mr.. Saussy stated he thought
such request might be made, as he be-
lieved the city could comply with it, es-
pecially since the litigation is not from
any desire to avoid paying what is legal
ly right.
Mr.. Saussy thinks the money can be
easily and quickly collected if Council
Will give the property owners an incentive
to pay. He does not think because the
property owners and the city have been
in a prolonged litigation, that it should
operate against them in whatever re-
quests they may feel inclined to make.
Mr.. Richards said ne had been given no
instructions in regard to such steps. He
thinks there is no doubt however, but
that Council will soon be asked to make
some concessions.
One or two members of Council have de-
clared their intention 10 favor renting
the interest on the citys claims, with the
proviso, however, that the amounts due
be paid by a specified time. How the ma
jority of the board stands, however, is
not known, but & is thought they will be
pretty evenly divided. It is probable the

That long looked for injunction out
at La Harpe arrived last week. 1t
was served by the canyons on Fred
Horton who was drilling for the
Palmer Oil company, to restrain him
from drilling a gas well within a
certain distance from house. 1t
seems that the gas lease held by the
Palmer Co. provides that no we'll
lance from house so when the Lam
yons bought the land they put up
houses all over the tract. At the

Services were conducted at the Presbyterian
church Sunday morning aud evening by Rev,
squier oil lola, Kansas, who arrived here Sat
urday. He is man Of great ability and ex
perence and has been pastor OF a church at the
place named above for five years. He wishes
TO secure different work and will locate at
Winfield at present as 1t has been added to
this field There will be services every night
this week up to Thursday then he will leave
for Milestone. Our ecclesiastical work has been
much neglected the past year on account Of
having no pastor, and now that we are to have
a regular pastor in in Rev. Squire we feel that
we should begin work with renewed zeal.

pleased to make the acquaintance of
Mr.. A. Il. Charles, late of Chicago,
who comes to lola to make it his
home and go into business Mr..
Charles is the father-in-law of Mr..
f. s. Bennett and has bought lot

build a handsome residence. His
