Contributions Being Sent From Sa-
vahnah for Their Relief.

Considerable work has been done in a
quiet way during the week in behalf of
the Carrabelle sufferers by the recent
Gulf storm. Provisions, clothing and other
necessaries have been forwarded. A num-
Der of private contributions have been
made to Miss Ella Garden, who has kind
ly taken the work in hand.
Several of the wholesale grocery mer-
chants have informed Miss Garden that
they would make shipments individually
to proper parties at Carrabelle. Savannah
merchants have done a good business for
a number of years with Carrabele and
the reliable business men there are known
here.
The railroads and the Southern Express
Company have offered to handle such
shipments free of charge. Any contribu-
tons made to Miss Garden at 116 Duffy
street, west, will be forwarded by her to
the Ladies' Auxiliary Relief Committee
al Carrabele. All reports from Cara
belle are to the effect that the distress
there is great, the damage done by the
storm being very severe and those who
contribute to the relief of the sufferers
will have the pleasure of knowing that
their aid has been worthily given.

Reads row, the teuements at Bryan,
Lumber and West Boundary streets, which
the health department has been endeavor-

The crusade against Reads row dates
back to the former administration of
Health officer Drummer. when he made eff
forts to have it removed. but not with the
same aggressiVeness he has recently
shown. DR.. LeHardy also fought for
long time to have the old buildings torn
down, claiming they were menace to the
public health, and that their standing
meant continued bad sanitary conditions

SEA CRITTERS FINAL PRACTICE.
The Team spent the Afternoon at the
Range Shooting on Contest.


The final practice shoot of the Sea Girt
team took place at the Avondale range
yesterday afternoon. All the members of
the team were out. and the shooting was
fully up 70 the standard. II was a source
of encouragement to those who look for
the team to do itself credit in the national
match.
While the entire team did excellent
shooting, the honors fell to Privates w.
G. Austin and H. T. wilson 1t was gra-
tifying to their friends that they made
the records of the final practice on the
home range, and they were the recipients
of many congratulations.
The interest ling feature of the shoot was
the conclusion of the contest for the
ebony rod offered by Capt. J. p. White
to the Sea Girter who made the best score
for five consecutive Saturdays. The match
lay between Lieut.. F. c. Wilson and Pri-
vate E. c. Mercer, who have regulations
as the best marksmen in the team. It
had been a close contest for the preceding
four Saturdays, Private Mercer went into
the field one point ahead of Lieut.. Wilson
They tied on the 200-yard range, but on the
60O-yard range Lieut. Wilson came out
ahead by two points. The official score
has not yet been announced by Col. Brooks
and as his memoranda may not rally with
the calculations others have made, it eau
not be told who will be awarded the rod
Col. Brooks said last night that ne would
compute the scores promptly, so that it
may be known who is the winner.
The contests at Sea Grit will start Sept.
l. The team will leave Savannah next
Tuesday on the Tallahassee. This will
put the team in New York Friday when 1t
will proceed direct TO Sea Girt. The mem
bers will have al least a weeks practice
there before the contests begin.

Narrow Escape of Driving Party
in Street Car Collision.
Street car No. 30 on the Barnard street
line. while crossing Bolton street yester-
day afternoon, about $50 O'clock col.ided
with drag in which were Mr.. Albert
Hill and two ladies.
Mr.. Hill was thrown out and in falling
got under the hub of the right hind wheel
of his drag, which was broken in the col
lison. He was released from his perilous
position by passengers in the car, who
went to his rescue, and was apparently not
hurt. Fortunately, in failing Mr.. Hill,
who was driving, held to the reins and
thus prevented the frightened horses from
running away The ladies were helped
out of the drag by bystanders, badly I'M
nerved, but uninjured.
From statements of passengers il seems
that the accident was caused by Mr.. Hill
taking 100 greet a risk in crossing in front
of a rapidly running car, or from his in
ability 70 control his spirited team. The
motorman reversed his current as soon as
he saw the intentions of MIR. Hill to drive
in front of the car, and stopped within
n foot or two of where the car struck the
drag II was a narrow escape from
very serious or possibly fatal accident.
