Hicks restaurant is still in the lead, and
ever will be.
Hicks goes 10 market himself. He looks
over what the market has. Some people
can't buy the best because it's too high.
Hicks scoops it every time. He doesn't
wait. If it is sought after by his patrons,
he gets it.
And he buys it UP as If he is cornering
cheap. O'N'D
After all, it doesn't cost much when he
gets through buying It,
He was in market yesterday before any,
BODY got there. He saw the best, liked It,
bought it,
To-day he will set the best table in this
city His steaks are large and juicy. His
eggs are fresh and rich.
His delicacies beat anybody's.
You won't go amiss to try his place for
a meal to-day.-ad.

MAY BEGIN WORK SOON.

Completion of the River street Con-
nectiOn Expected ny Jan. 1.
1t is understood steps toward making
the Central Railroads connection from
River street to its Tybee division, accord
ing to the recent resolution of Council,
will be taken at once, so that the track
may be completed probably by Jan. l.
Mr. H. c. Cunningham, counsel for the
Central, was seen yesterday by a Morn
ing News representative, and asked as to
when the connection would probably be
made. He said it was impossible to tell,
but he expected to take steps as soon as
he heard from Vice President Egan on the
results of an effort to acquire the Lamar
property without resorting to condemna-
ton proceedings. 1t seems the officials of
the Central hardly expect to get through
these lands without condemnlng them, as
the owners place their value at too large
a figure to warrant the railroad in pur-
chasing.
Ii is believed that all matters
will be arranged, however. and the
connection made by next year.
This will be a source of much salts
faction to commercial interests generally,
which have been hoping for years that the
railroad would get the franchise it has just
been given.

PREPARING FOR THE FREsHET.
Fifty Men at Work strengthening
the Great Freshet Bank.

Fifty Men at Work strengthening
the Great Freshet Bank.
The advance guard Of the river freshet
did not arrive yesterday, as expected 1t
will probably be down to-day and the full
effect of the high water at Augusta viii
be apparent tomorrow.
The delay in it's arrival has given the
planters time to make more preparation
for it, and unless it is thirty-f1ve foot
freshet they expect to be able TO resist
it and save what portion of their crop
is left from the havoc of the storm and
the first flood.
Last night fifty men went up the river
to the freshet bank to be in readiness to
begin work this morning. They are well
supplied with barrows and shovels and
will materially strengthen that defense of
the plantations. They are under good
managers and their work will be of the
most effective character.
The freshet bank referred to is located
about ten miles up the river. 1t is a
fine piece of engineering and a great pro-
lection to the plantations on the Carolina
side of the river. 1t was built at a cost
of about $50 Geo by a corporation chartered
by the legislature of South Sarolina and
The expense of maintaining it is supposed
TO be borne by tax on the planters who
are benefited by it. SO well was it con-
structed in the beginning that but COM

a CHANGE OF DIET.
Housekeepers Preparing for the
Winter Season.

1t is quite relief to housekeepers to
know that the time for fresh sausage,
corned beef liver buildings. pork chops
and roasts is near at hand. The weather
is putting on an autumn air and those
who like good things 10 eat begin to
think of a change. Beefsteak fruits and
vegetables are all right in summer, but it
is time now for a change in diet
There is no one better prepared to serve
patrons than Logan, in the market He
has already made arrangements for the
fan trade, and is always ready to receive
new customers. No matter whether old
or new, large or small patrons, they are
treated alike. Logan takes a s much pains
to serve a 25-cent beefsteak and deliver
it at your house as he does an order
ten times as large. Everybody knows
that, however, and it goes without say
ing that Logan is the most popular caterer
in the market.-ad.

SAND IN THE SEWER.
Rains Cause a Break In a Part of the
New system.

Rains Cause "a Break In Part of the
New system.
It begins to look like the complaints of
bad workmanship and carelessness in fin
ishing those parts of the house drainage
system already completed, are justified
to some extent the city authorities say.
A number of complaints have been made,
some of which are now coming to light.
Around the manhole of the Whitaker
street sewer, at Congress street lane, the
street has sunk several inches, which led
TO an investigation by the public works
department. The facts seem TO show
carelessness on the part of somebody, as
it was found one of the openings for a con-
nection had been left open by the former
contractors, and there being no protec-
ton, the recent rains washed sand into
the sewer to such an extent that the earth
surrounding the manhole was filling up
the pipes. Not only the manhole was full,
but the sand had made its way through
the sewer SO far that it was impossible
for the workmen to remove it, The only
thing they could do was to remove all in
reach and leave the remainder alone.
The earth around the manhole was all
removed, the opening was closed, and as
the soil was replaced, 1t was firmly packed
to prevent further trouble. There will
likely be no more sand washing in at this
point, but there is a tedious Job ahead for
somebody in getting out what sand the
public works department was unable to
remove.

Ladies Return After Presenting 81
Flag to the second Georgia.
Mrs. Walter Hartrdge. Miss Cosens and
Miss Owens returned yesterday from
Huntsville, Ala, where they presented a
handsome stand of colors to the Second
Georgia Regiment in behalf of the savan-
nah friends of the command who subscrib-
cd to the fund for its purchase. The la
dies spent some ten days in Huntsville,
and scarcely a day passed during which
they were not at the camp of the Second
Georgia. Their visits were always a
source of delight to the soldiers from Sa-
vannah and they were sure of a hearty
welcome whenever they appeared on the
tented field" The presentation of the
colors was an imposing affair, and the
ladies', as wen as the men. will doubtless
long remember the event with great pleas.

CONNERY WON THE MATCH.

Defeated Kinsey In the Final Heat
Yesterday.
The third and deciding heat in the match
race between Kinsey and Connery was
ridden at the track yesterday afternoon.
After having ridden three~and one-half
miles Kinsey withdrew and Connery was
awarded the heat. The time for the dis.
lance ridden was S:56
This gave Connery two out of three
heats, which entitled him to the match.
Kinsey's friends still contend that he is
the faster rider of the two and it is
probable that another match race will be
arranged.

PROPOSED RAILROAD.
A Line From Elizabeth City to
Suffolk Contemplated.

1t is learned that parties are
now trying to mature plans fol-
building "a railroad from Eliza,
b1th City to Suffolk, Va. The
plans have not been matured
but it is probable that either
the Seaboard Air Line or the
Southern Railway may become
interested in this line.
The gentlemen who are now
anxious to have this line built
claim that it will be a good in
vestlnent.
If the Southern should tai. e
hold Of the matter it would give
them line straight from the
West into Northeastern Caro-
lima. The coal, fish and lumb
trade, which, it is claimed,
would pass over this road, would
be great. The people of that
section claim now that they
have no paying market for
their fish, often because the
Northern markets are abun>
dantly supplied, while if they
had this line to Suffolk, giving
them quick route West, they
could dispose of the output of
their fisheries, game, produce
and lumber in the interior. TIE
assertion is also made that this
road would have the coal trade
to that section from the West.
The distance from Elizabeth
City to Suffolk is but forty FIVE
miles There is a lumber road
which runs all but IS miles be-
tween these two places. The
distance from Elizabeth City TO
Raleigh will be 50 miles shorter.
