DR.. Drummer WON'T ACCEPT.
WRITES 4 FRIEND THAT HE WILL
NOT RETURN TO SAVANNAH.

Mayor Myers Declined to Divulge
Contents of Letter He Received,
But II * believed DR.. Drummer De-
cIincs Because Not Assured of
Longer Term-City Attorney 10 Be
Consulted as to Latitude of Legis-
IatiOn-BeIief Expressed by Some
THAT drummer VIII Yet Accept.
There are serious doubts whether DR.. w
T. Drummer will accept the position of
health officer of Savannah. At the City
Exchange yesterday it was reported that
a reply had been received from him in an
swer to letter Offering him the position
and that everything was favorable. On
the other hand a friend Of DR.. Drummer
received a letter from him in which he
said he had just refused a chance to be
health officer of Savannah again"
While the contents of the letter Mayor
Myers received were not divulged, it seems
probable that DR.. Drummer declined to re-
turn TO Savannah. possibly owing to the
fact he would not have the assurance of
holding the position longer than the term
Of the present Council Ii is understood
the Mayor viii not reply to DR.. Drummer s
letter until the city attorney has been
consulted. 1t may be the possibility of
iengthening the terms of the office will be
considered.
According 10 the letter received by Dr.
Burners friend he has declined the po-
sition Of health officer though with great
regret The Savannah man had written
Dr. Drummer 10 know what the chances
We're TO secure a position in Havana
To this inquiry DR.. Drummer replied very
pleasantly that there was no desirable
opening in his line of business in Ha-
vana, and that the only Americans who
could expect 10 do Wei in Cuba are those
VINO come there with large capital He
ADVISED his correspondent to stick TO Sa-
vannah. Savannah is the only town for
a Savannah man." said Dr. Drummer Fol-
lowing this advice DR.. Drummer makes the
following statement: II have Just re-
fused, and it was a hard thing for me to
90, chance to be health officer Of Sa-
vannah again. ! have an ambition 10 go
higher, and l fought down the strong de-
sire TO return, but 1 don't know now but
what l made a mistake"
From this it viii be seen that while Dr.
Drummer has declined the position of
health officer, Mayor Myers has grounds
Drummer to see his way clear TO accept
ing the position which he is so DESTROYS
of giving him here.
The administration is anxious 10 secure
DR.. Bruuncr's services, and it was stated
at the time the letter was written inform
ing nam of his selection, that it was word
"a so as to bring positive reply. IL DR..
Burners letter is correct, IL seems that
there is to be long delay. Time win be re-
CURED to receive the desired legislation,
lens thening the term of Office and increas-
ing he salary, and besides reasonable no.
tice viii probably have to be given the
government by DIR. Drummer of his inten-
ton TO surrender his position. His success
sor win probably need a few DAVIS ingtruc-
ton, which makes It likely that # he
should accept, it would be a month or six
weeks before the health Office win be
filled.

BE ParticuIar.

If there Is anything you should be par
ticular about it is your food 1t should
be good food in the first place-not re-
fuse-waste, or something not wanted by
some other man-not something left over
-pickings. In the next place it should
be matter of great concern to you, as
to its preparation-its cooking. Bad cook
ing is at the bottom of sickness. You
should not be afraid of cost when il comes
TO your health. You may be poor-sick-
ness makes you poorer. Hicks has made
good cooking study in his business. He
has found out the way to do it. His
meats, and everything entering into the
cooking of food, is done scientifically
This has made his restaurant famous
Some wonder why they enjoy a steak
more at Hicks than elsewhere, or why
they can eat some vegetables and not be
sick; or why his dessert does not fetch
dyspepsia.
The reason is plain.
1t is a great rest, even once week
for person to eat weil-prepared food
You might learn something by giving his
restaurant a visit to-day.
Everything in season.

WHY NEW YonK WAS so HOT.
storm Center Brought Hot Wind Up
From the South and Southeast.

The roast" the people Of New YORK
have been getting from the weather has
been spared Savannahians. Many will In
dignantly dispute that statement and re-
fuse to -accredlt- the weather with any
such kindness TO Savannah. But there
have been no deaths from the heat here,
though the weather bureaus reports have
shown the temperature to have been JUST
as high as at New York.
Where Savannah has had the advantage
has been a difference in the humidity Of
the two places and The less crowded pop
ulation The great buildings of the me-
tropolis are perfect reservoirs Of heat. and
in them, too, there is found an influence
that helps TO make New York so sitting
at some seasons.
Weather Observer Boyer at Savannah
was asked last night as to the cause or
the excessive heat in the North and the
comparative immunity, judging from
there having been no deaths, that Savan-
nah and this vicinity enjoyed. The heat
waves" he replied, ARE superinduced by
storms passing from west to east over
the lake region. As a storm approaches
a point It draws the wind TO the South
and Southeast, producing a higher tenn
perature by drawing air from the South
ern regions. But il is peculiar fact that
IN many instances the temperature to the
south and southeast Of the storm center
Is greater than that even farther south in
the United States. That is brought about
by what is technically known as dynamic
heating. The hot wave that passed over
New York was caused by such storm
1t passed over the lake region and mas
now gone out to sea. The temperature
Will fail in New York now. II would have
been warmer in savannah had IL not been
for the city's nearness TO the coast
Mr. Boyer heard from his cotton region
observer al MilleH yesterday. The man
who takes dots on the weather there in
formed the observer that the people Of
shown 1t to be hotter there than u reany
is, but such Is not the case, for Mr.
Boyer says during the last few days the
hottest weather east Of the Mississippi
the Savannah river. Milen has had l0i
degrees thereby sustaining a reputation
she has long iabored under as one of the
hottest places in Georgia.
Savannaniaus may thank their stars
that the city is not 100 miles from the
sea for II Is to that body of water and
the Gulf stream a distance out that the
city has its temperature kept down a bit
in the summer and raised a little in the
winter. When isotheTmal lines are traced
on the weather maps they may be seen to
turn from an easterly 70 a northerly
course when they near the Atlantic coast
at this point
The thermometer has not gone ahove
81 at Savannah this season. 1t has reach
ed that point several times, however. The
month S young yet though, and 1t *
one that has registered some rather high
temperatures None higher than 81 have
been recorded for a date earlier than June
10, but on that date in 1880 the thermome-

REGISTRATION RATHER SLOW.
OVER FOUR HUNDRED BEHIND
THAT OF LAST YEAR.

Efforts of Politicians to Doom the
Registration Unsuccessful So Far.
No Election in sight e MI the Aver
age Voter Does Not Feel interest
ed-This Years Registration Like
ly to BE Used for a General Pri-
mary Next Year and Hence the In
terest of the POIitieinns-Tiie Reg
istration To Date 2,OG3 whites and
ASP Negroes.
Just 2.5l5 voters have registered with the
county registrar in the TAX collectors Of
flee since Jan. ]. This is IA less than on the
same date last year. and 260 less than on
the same date two years ago.
Evidently the interest Is not being taken
IN the registration which was anticipa ted
some time ago. This is not the fault of the
politicians as interested parties on both
sides have endeavored to help the regis
tration along by sending out postals and
p7IslslSeI oIB QUA uIelIaosB o. Gse9 6IeA
very cas- yto ascertain who are registered
and by taking last years registration LIST
and checking off those who have registered
this year 1t is easy to ascertain those who
have not registered. Both factions have
been working this scheme and calling upon
their friends to come UP and register but
evidently without much success.
As there is no election scheduled for this
year the average voters sees no particular
reason for haste in getting his name on
the list II is believed, however, that
general primary will be agreed upon next
year for the selection Of county officers
ana members of the legislature, ana that
as the registration for mat year win not be
complete this years registration will De
used. Hence the advantage of registering
this year The argument is also being made
that the legislature may make the officers

tive in which case an election would have
10 be he'd 10 fiji those places az which 1t
would be necessary 10 use this years reg
istralion. The politician believe I'm being
pTimed for any emergency, but there seems
TO be a lack Of interests among the voters
generally upon political subjects at pres
Cnt.
The registration so far is pretty well
scattered among all classes of people no
particular effort having been made, seem
lugiy, 10 register any one class of people.

would Not Accept One Under Present

Mr.. Harry Willink said yesterday that
he was surprised at the report that he
had been given a position with the Savan-
nah, Thunderbolt and Isle of Hope Rail
way.
"That statement is the first information
/ had that any such report was in cir
culation," said Mr.. Willlnk. THE report
was unfounded for the reason that 1 am
not seeking a position from anyone, least
of all from the street railway company
If l needed a position l would not ac-
cept one from the street railway company
under its present management under any
circumstances.
Those who heard the report took II
TO indicate that the political differences
which have existed for some time be-
tween MIR. Willink on the one hand and
Messrs. Myers, Osborne and Lotion, all
Of whom are connected with the street
railway company on the other, had been
healed 1t is evident, from Mr. Willink' $
remarks, that such is not the case and
that his estrangement from his old as

fed With Prince Verdict.

1t was announced yesterday that the
attorneys for the Savannah, Thunderbolt
and Isle of Hope Railway viii move for
a new trial in the case of f. L. Prince
against the company. in which the plain
tiff was given verdict for 5000 in the
City Court Friday. In case the new trial
is refused by Judge Norwood, the motion
will be appealed to the Supreme Court
1t Is evidently the intention of the COM
pany to exhaust every resource OF the
law, rather than TO accept the verdict as
it now stands.
Mr., w. w. Osborne. of the ATTORNEYS
for the railway company. when seen yes

which have been made of his course in
attacking the plaintiff, MIR. Prince, in his
speech 10 the jury.
