WENT TO RIDGELAND TO WED.
Mr.. w. w. Starr, Jr., and Miss Bessie
Drummer Bride and Groom.

Mr.. W. W. starr Jr., and Miss Bessie
Otis Drummer were married at Ridgeland
S. c., at $3.50 o'clock yesterday afternoon
1t was runaway match and the eere-
mony was performed by a magistrate.
Both the young people are well known
in Savannah. The groom is the son Of
Mr.. w. w. Starr, while the bride is the
sister of DR.. w. F. Drummer, now in the
government service in Havana. Mr..
Starr has just attained his majority. His
bride is just Is.
The pair left the city by the Plant sys,
tenn train for Ridgeland at 2 O'Clock in the
afternoon, returning at 6. In the interim
the marriage had taken pace. 1t is under
stood that there was no objection on the
part OF either family to the marriage
other than that caused by the brides ex-
IRENE youth, and that consent had AL
ready been secured for their wedding in
June. However, the love that laughs ar
locksmths Is also a trifle impatient of de-
lay and the elopement was the result
When Mr.. and Mrs. Starr returned to the
city they went a once TO the home of the
pride, NO 9l5 Lincoln street. There eyerv-
thlhg seemed to have been forgiven Them

CHARITY Fund NEEDED.
COunciFs Attention VIII BE Called
to the situation.

The cold weather has brought the char
ity question to the front again, and It is
now generally conceded that the city will
have to make an appropriation to amelio-
rate very needy cases of distress. The
poor look to the city for help, and as the
| demand is imperative it appears the SOON
er the city tackles the issue the better.
There were about fifteen callers for
aims at the City Exchange yesterday, and
the day before the same number was
around. One scantny attired woman told
a pitiful story in asking for transportation
70 neighboring town. Herself and three
children are destitute in Savannah and I'M
less she could gee home TO relatives, she
said, they would be a charge on the COM
munity. The woman was told that the
city could only obtain half-rate tickets,
and that she would be required to pay the
other half. Producing few pennies, she
said that was all che money she had. I'm
der these circumstances there was no legal
way TO aid her, the only apparent recourse
being to beg.
Mayor Myers has said that he win bring
the charity question before Council with
the possible recommendation that steps be
taken to provide for cases considered an
actual charge upon the city. Ii is evident
the Mayor favors the Old plan by which
charity was dispensed from the exchange,
as the city is not in position to pay u
special salary for this service.
Up to the organization of the charitable
assoclasANn there was a fund of 81 200 pro-
Vided by the city for distressed persons
This amount was not used as extensively
among the local poor however, as it was
in relieving the city OF destitute characters
who were stranded on their way some
where. The intention was not to convert
the exchange into a charity headquarters
but to keep the city clear of chronic beg
gars, such as have been swarming around
for the last few days
A number Of business men who were APP
preached on the subject yesterday seemed
10 think the best plan for the city was to
provide an appropriation as formerly. As
this fund could be used for distinct class
of beggars, the stranded. Persons solicit
ing aims who live in Savannah could be
referred to associations or citizens, and in
this way there would probably be- little
trouble an each case, the city and the
people managing their respective classes.
When the city contributes to help
stranded persons along, it is generally
desired that they take the first train, and
not be wandering through the city in
search of the Charitable Associations
headquarters. For this reason, it is urged
that division Of the beggars would be
better for all interested in the work
ITO a certain extent its the city's duty
to care for the poor" said one man. 1T
appears the line should be drawn some
where however, and it seems the proper
place would be in the cases Of strangers"
Several members Of Council are known
to have been friendly to the charitable as
ISOLATION, and il may be they will sug-
gest some way of putting the institution
on its feet.

ASSIGNED TO HOSPITAL DUTY.
DIR. Reynolds Comes TO Savannah
From Santiago.

Surgeon W. IT. Reynolds has been as
signed to duty at the army hospital, under
the direction of the surgeon in charge
Mai. d. NJ. Appel. DIT. Reynolds, who is a
contras surgeon in the army with the
rank Of lieutenant, was at Sagua de Tana-
mo, in Cuba, when notified of his appoint
ment and ordered to Savannah. This or
der reached MIN Jan. 20. lie was III at the
time, but by Jan. % had become wei
enough to set out on his journey.
DR.. Reynolds considered his best route
would be to go twenty-five miles across
the country from Sagua and find a boat
on the north coast Of the province OF San
tiago TO take him 10 Baracoa, whence there
is "A line OF Spanish steamers for Havana.
At the point on the coast for which he was
headed, he found two Cubans and a sailing
craft. These he engaged for the seventy
five mile trip 10 Baracoa, which was made
without further incident than that FUR
nshed in the battling Of the little craft
against adverse winds. 1t took about three
days for the sal
Al Baracoa, Dr. Reynolds was fortunate
in finding vessel on the eve of departure
for Havana. He boarded her. and was
equally lucky in arriving at that place
as ship was just about to leave for Port
Tampa. This was the Olivette, on which
he made the trip.
The men of Col Rays regiment are
reported by Dr. Reynolds as in the enjoy
ment Of very good health. The death rate
in the command has been very low, sur
prisingly So he thinks. 1t is a matter of
pride 10 DR.. Reynolds that not a man Of
the battalion of which he was in charge
as surgeon died during the five months
and more he was in the province Of San
uaso. But Dr. Reynolds does not believe
the men could stand another hot season
lie thinks it fortunate for the regiment
that it has been booked for home. lie
knows too, he says, that the men will be
overjoyed when the news reaches them
They had not heard anything along this
line when he was with them
As bit Of news the doctor tells of a
promotion of which he heard Just before
he left the province. This was the adj
vancement of Capt. Walter Wheatey of
Americus TO a majority, vacancy having
arisen. DR.. Reynolds was not sure as 20
the truth Of this, which he heard merely
as a report.
DR.. Reynolds is from Clarendon county.
South Carolina. He was appointed a con-
tract surgeon in August and was at once
ordered 20 report for duty in Cuba. The
doctor Is man who tips the scales at 265
when ne is in prime condition, and he had
to get special dispeusation in order to
get into the army. He left forty pounds

tally relieved him of his fair PROPORTIONS

DUG HIS WAY OUT OF PRISON.
How Col. GInzier TunneIed Under
DrHytOn street in the COS,

Col. Willard Glazier and daughter of
New York are at the De Soto. Col.
Glazier is travelling through the South
looking over his old tramping ground in
the war of secession, and incidentally
writing something for his home papers.
Col. Glazier was captain in the civil
war, and was at one time a prisoner in
this city, confined in Camp Davidson. 3"
which was the enclosed block of the Sa-
vannah Hospital grounds. One night
number of prisoners escaped by means
of tunnel dug under Drayton street into
Forsyth Park. The tunnel was discovered
the next day by a man breaking through
it. After that guards were stationed out
side of the fence and there was no fur
Their chance to tunnel out of the prison.
Col. G}azier has recently been elected
commander-in-chiefo OF a new organization
now forming in the North, known as the
Blue and Gray Legion. His main object in
making tour of the Southern states at
this time is to visit old camp grounds and
battlefields, and incidentally to talk with
Confederate veterans concerning the new
military order.

STILL HOLDING THEIR OFFICES
No IntimntiOn of Opinion in CITY
Court Offices CnSe

Nourt Omces Case.
The City Court clerkship case, which
involves also that of the sheriff Of tho
City Court, as to the right of the present
incumbents to the offices. to which tbe,,
were recently elected, was argued before
the Supreme Court yesterday and the dav
before. The case was carried IN from
the Superior Court, Judge FalHgant bav-
ing decided in favor of the recently elect
ed officials.
There was a pretty generally circulated
story yesterday that the Supreme Court
had practically decided upon reversal
of Judge Falligant's decision the effect
OF which would be to reinstate AIessrs
Collins and Sheftall as clerk and sheriff
The rumor, il seems, started from a let
ter received from Solicitor General Os-
borne by MIR Collins. NIessrs. Collins and
Sheftall are represented by Alex Law
renee, ESD and Judge Spencer Atkinson.
After having heard part of Mr.. Law
rence's argument. the court stated that it
fully agreed with him on the point he had
made. and there was no need for "A further
argument. This was taken at once TO
mean a reversal of the lower courts de-
cslon. City Attorney Adams had NOT
yet been heard. After his presentation of
the case the court remarked that there
was evidently more in it than there had
appeared 10 be, and it directed Mr.. Law
renee to continue his argument which he
did. and was followed by Judge Atkinson.
Mr. Adams was then directed to submit a
further brief.
The rumor that the case had practically
been decided. it seems. grew out of the
Supreme Courts suggestion TO MIR. Law
renee that it agreed with him on the point
he had presented.
